On the other side, Qian Daoliu also left his unknown territory, leaving the rest of the Spirit Hall to wait in place. He then had someone summon Qian Renxue, who was still disguised in the Heaven Dou Empire.
As for Qian Daoliu, he had considered directly contacting Dean Lin Feng.
But Lin Feng is an unknown; he can't see through this young man. Before figuring out his background, it's not a wise choice to make contact rashly.
In particular, the two of them had practically no connection whatsoever. He did have a past relationship with Yun Ming, but that was all.
He also sent some people who originally belonged to the Spirit Hall to the Shrek Academy in Spirit City. They were all kind-hearted people, but... a few of them failed to get into any of the Shrek Academy.
If those children were here, he could use them to have a conversation, but since the Shrek Academy branch in Spirit City hasn't arrived yet, he has to give up on that idea.
I can't even beat the Branch Dean now, let alone think about communicating with the dean on an equal footing.
However, whether or not they maintain good relations with the Shrek Academy is secondary at the moment.
The main issue concerns his granddaughter.
Qian Daoliu waited for a while in an open space at the Shrek Academy, and then a figure walked over from the side.
This person was none other than Qian Renxue. She had deliberately changed Xue Qinghe's disguise and reappeared before Qian Daoliu as Qian Renxue.
Having not seen her grandfather for a long time, a hint of joy flashed in Qian Renxue's eyes.
However, she knew this wasn't the place for reminiscing, so she quickly asked, her tone somewhat urgent.
"Grandpa, what brings you here at this hour?"
"I can't be away for too long, otherwise Xue Qinghe's identity might be exposed."
Qian Daoliu looked at his granddaughter, a complex light flashing in his eyes.
He was silent for a moment, then slowly began to speak.
" Xue'er, the undercover operation has been cancelled."
When Qian Renxue heard these words, she was slightly taken aback, and a look of confusion flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Grandpa, I've been an undercover agent in the Heaven Dou Empire for over a decade. Why... are you suddenly giving up? Is it because of that woman Bibi Dong?"
Qian Daoliu looked at Qian Renxue's delicate face, shook his head, and said.
"No, this matter has nothing to do with Bibi Dong. Xue'er, do you remember how much Innate Soul Power you had?"
Qian Renxue was slightly taken aback. Although she didn't understand why Qian Daoliu suddenly asked this, she still nodded and answered truthfully.
"Hmm, level 20."
Qian Daoliu continued to ask.
"So what is your current Soul Power Level?"
"I... am still Soul Emperor."
Qian Renxue answered, vaguely knowing what her grandfather was about to say.
Qian Daoliu nodded, then asked the most crucial question.
"So, how do you compare to those kids...?"
Qian Renxue fell silent upon hearing this.
Having Innate Soul Power at level 20 is a terrifying existence even on the entire Douluo Continent.
She was certain that the Shrek Academy kids' Innate Soul Power was inferior to hers.
But what about now?
Qian Renxue's gaze involuntarily drifted towards the venue, a complex emotion flashing in her beautiful eyes.
While her Soul Power Level was indeed higher than that of the children, in terms of combat strength... Qian Renxue was quite clear that she was no match for them.
They were at least no match for Dai Yun'er and the others, let alone Wu Siduo, Ye Xinglan, and Tang Wulin.
The three of them were the most powerful among this batch of students at the Shrek Academy.
Qian Renxue would only be defeated by them.
Having infiltrated the Heaven Dou Empire for so many years, he had wasted a lot of his cultivation time, especially time on the struggle for imperial power.
She remained silent for a while, then nodded, and then spoke with some relief.
"I understand, Grandpa. Next, I'll return to the Spirit Hall to prepare for the Angel God Trial."
Upon hearing Qian Renxue's reply, Qian Daoliu Daoliu's expression softened, and a look of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.
"Good child, you've worked so hard all these years."
He paused for a moment, then continued.
"You don't need to worry about all those years of infiltration. Let bygones be bygones. At least now you know what path you're on."
"The emergence of the Shrek Academy is an unknown factor; it's not your problem."
"Actually, over the years, I've sometimes wondered if sending you undercover was the right choice."
"Now we don't need to worry about it so much anymore."
Qian Renxue felt a slight lump in her throat as she listened to Qian Daoliu's words, but she still nodded gently.
Just then, footsteps came from not far away.
The Xue Ye, accompanied by several attendants, was walking in this direction.
As he approached, his gaze inadvertently swept across Qian Renxue 'Qian Renxue face. Sensing her aura, he paused slightly in his tracks.
Why does it feel so familiar? But I can't quite put my finger on where I've seen it before.
Xue Ye frowned slightly, but didn't think much of it. He quickly shifted his gaze and it landed on Qian Daoliu.
He looked at Qian Daoliu with a polite smile on his face.
" Grand Elder, it's been a long time. I didn't expect you to be here too."
Qian Daoliu nodded slightly and replied in a calm tone.
"I will naturally attend Shrek Academy's invitation. Well, I have other matters to attend to, so I won't chat any longer."
Xue Ye did not try to stop them, but simply nodded and watched as Qian Daoliu and Qian Daoliu turned and left.
After Qian Daoliu's figure had disappeared into the distance, Xue Ye withdrew his gaze, then looked at his attendant beside him and asked in a low voice.
"Where's Qinghe? I haven't seen him anywhere."
"Your Majesty, we are searching for His Highness the Crown Prince."
Just then, Prince Xue Xing approached with a slight smile on his face.
"Your Majesty, do you know what just happened over there?"
Xue Ye raised an eyebrow slightly, and Prince Xue Xing briefly recounted what had just happened with the Star Luo Empire Emperor.
After hearing this, Xue Ye couldn't help but smile slightly.
"It seems the situation regarding the heir of the Star Luo Empire is quite dire."
His gaze swept over the bustling crowd in the hall, and a sense of secret pride welled up inside him.
"Fortunately, I still have Qinghe. This Crown Prince Qinghe truly puts my mind at ease."
Upon hearing Xue Ye's words, Prince Xue Xing's face showed a bitter expression. Sigh... how can he possibly overcome this hurdle of Xue Qinghe?
Will that child, Xue Beng, still have a chance to return to the eyes of Xue Ye?
