The Butterfly Effect of Interconnection Between Two Worlds (I)

"Young Master, have you finished asking?"

Inside the Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City, and Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

Spear Douluo strode into the hall and said this to Qian Renxue, who was sitting on the throne.

Behind Qian Renxue.

The easygoing and plump Porcupine Douluo stood with his arms crossed.

Out of the corner of his eye, he locked onto a girl with short blonde hair, a pretty face but lifeless eyes, sitting to Qian Renxue's left, at the same level as Qian Renxue, constantly warning this girl who had become a puppet not to speak or act.

"What did they say?" Qian Renxue slowly placed the memorial on the table, picked up her teacup, and elegantly sipped her milk tea. A rare moment of pleasure appeared between her brows. "If the water is too clear, there will be no fish. The Spirit Hall is indeed corrupt, but under the justice and light of the Spirit Hall, this corruption is insignificant. Even if it has hurt some people, it is not enough for so many people to smear and spread rumors about the Spirit Hall. They should not know my initial plan to usurp the throne, or even know that woman is God Trial Taker of the Rakshasa Lineage, and accuse the current Spirit Hall of harboring filth."

"Yes..." The usually decisive Spear Douluo hesitated for once, his hands trembling as he held the record. Although he agreed with Qian Renxue's statement, the pain of his shattered worldview made it difficult for him to objectively recount the truth Qian Renxue had gleaned from these people. "This matter is indeed far too complicated. Please review it yourself, Young Master!"

The Porcupine Douluo noticed that something was wrong with his old friend.

Qian Renxue also noticed the Spear Douluo's emotions.

Considering that Ye Qingcang had been missing for more than half a month, she subconsciously muttered to herself, "Could it be that that guy has caused some trouble somewhere I don't know about?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Ke, who had become a puppet, shuddered.

Everything changed overnight.

Her Crown Prince brother, the Crown Prince, became her Crown Prince sister, the Crown Prince.

Moreover, she is an older sister with no blood relation to her.

Ye Qingcang, who had met her once at the Crown Prince's Residence's residence, became an ally of this Crown Prince Prince's sister, eradicating the Heaven Dou Imperial Family. To this day, only she remains as a puppet, barely clinging to life and maintaining a semblance of legitimacy.

She was afraid of this Crown Prince sister who had been hiding for many years.

They were even more afraid of Ye Qingcang, whom they had never truly known.

She had once had feelings for this person, and even imagined marrying him, becoming part of the "beautiful story of the Crown Prince and his minister" in the marriage alliance. He was perfect, impeccable, and undoubtedly excellent—the kind of marriage alliance she liked.

Now, everything is broken!

She couldn't muster any hatred!

Because her Crown Prince sister, the Crown Prince, is also her Crown Prince brother, the Crown Prince.

From the day she met him.

The person who accepted her was this Crown Prince's sister.

And Ye Qingcang had always been acquainted with this person.

She didn't even know this older sister's name, only that this older sister was her Crown Prince prince brother, who was suspected to be the Young Master of the Spirit Hall, with two titled assistants.

Of course, Xue Ke's distraction stemmed from overhearing Qian Renxue's self-talk. Qian Renxue herself, however, was not distracted. She rubbed her temples, stopped rambling on about useless nonsense, and replied clearly, "Alright, then I'll see for myself just how complicated this matter is that requires my personal review..."

As she spoke, Qian Renxue opened the document in her hand.

Spear Douluo stood in front of the hall.

The Porcupine Douluo stood behind Qian Renxue.

He kept a close eye on Xue Ke, but his gaze went past Qian Renxue and landed on the record in Qian Renxue's hand.

At first glance: Hmm...

Looking at it a second time: Hmm?

Looking at it for the third time: Holy crap!

What did he see?

What is the testimony of someone who inexplicably descended from the Douluo Continent ten thousand years in the future to the Douluo Continent at this very moment?

Let's leave the contents of the statement aside for now.

Take your title for example.

Snake Lance, are you crazy or am I crazy?

Even if you can't censor it, you can't just write whatever you want.

We, the Spirit Hall, are good people, but not indiscriminately so. Our approach to those traitors who speak ill of the Spirit Hall Spirit Hall, especially those who accuse the Young Master of rebellion, of being a mere Crown Prince prince replaced by Xue Qinghe Qian Renxue, and of being incredibly audacious, is simply to arrest them all under the guise of Evil Spirit Master. If they are truly misled, we'll try to correct them; if we can't, we'll throw them into the City of Slaughter. If they harbor rebellious intentions, we'll treat them all as Evil Spirit Master and execute them on the spot. After all, the Spirit Hall has killed countless Evil Spirit Master; if ten or eight occasionally slip in, no one will pay too much attention to the details.

Isn't this the way we all know how to handle it?

Do you really need to make up some excuse to fool the Young Master?

If you can't find a solution, then don't investigate!

Deceitful people don't have good consequences!

When Qian Renxue first glanced at the scene, her reaction was exactly the same as that of the Porcupine Douluo. However, Qian Renxue quickly realized something was wrong and frowned, saying, "Tell me in detail, how did these people react at the end of the torture?"

"They'll confess to whatever we convict them of." The Spear Douluo's face was extremely grim, because he would rather these people not confess. "It's obvious that none of these people are tough guys. Under torture, they only want a quick death. Even if they're forced to confess, they'll admit it. It's clear they're just saying, 'Stop torturing me, give me a quick death, and pin whatever blame you want on me.' From this perspective, they don't seem like a group of organized and disciplined assassins!"

Ye Qingcang once said: The way to distinguish between suicide spies is to see if a person changes their story when they are about to die!

The person who made the changes might be a suicide mission...

But those who don't change are definitely doomed!

As Qian Renxue's bodyguard, Spear Douluo had heard Ye Qingcang's philosophical sayings. Putting himself in Ye Qingcang's shoes and thinking about it, he had to admit these words made a lot of sense: Imagine he was an ordinary Soul Master, without any training, suddenly captured by the Spirit Hall Spirit Hall and imprisoned. He wouldn't even know why he was captured, and would be subjected to eighteen tortures. He would rather die quickly than insist he was innocent. After all, the Spirit Hall's people were after a confession, their intentions clear—death was acceptable, but a confession was essential. Considering he would suffer less, eighteen tortures combined with a healing-type Soul Master would truly be hell on earth; he'd better just submit and accept it!

This is how an ordinary person would react!

Only suicidal spies will stubbornly cling to excuses!

Currently, arrests are taking place in various parts of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Let's just talk about Heaven Dou City.

In the past few days, no fewer than a hundred people have been arrested.

More than one hundred Soul Master.

The forced confessions were all successfully obtained.

In the confessions, more than 60% of the details were completely consistent, and more than 80% of the details had large areas of similarity. If these people were all spies, looking across the entire Douluo Continent, there was only one person he could think of who could use tactics to this extent: Ye Qingcang!

No one knows how many spies Ye Qingcang has.

In any case, when it comes to Ye Qingcang, the eyes and ears of various sects will be compromised to some extent.

In severe cases, such as Ning Fengzhi.

Less serious cases, like the Spirit Hall.

Ye Qingcang would not send out more than a hundred spies to gain the trust of one person, nor would he use such tactics on his own people. Therefore, the facts presented in this confession are very likely true!

But if it's real... it's better to be fake!

It's true, the Spirit Hall was destroyed!

It's fake... but it might actually be real!

"Such a trivial matter, and it doesn't even concern you?" Unlike the Pufferfish and the Spear Douluo, Qian Renxue remained remarkably calm. She closed her notebook and smiled disdainfully, "Even if he wasn't God Trial Taker of the Asura Lineage, or even if we concede that he wasn't God Trial Taker and ultimately died of old age on the Douluo Continent, with his talent, he would certainly have made his mark in history. It's just a world that's ambiguous. In this world, I lost ten thousand years ago, but in our world, that doesn't mean we'll follow the same path. I'm not boasting, but because the Heaven Dou Empire is now in my hands, and it hasn't replicated the history of another world!"

"Young Master is wise..." Spear Douluo and Porcupine Douluo were taken aback at first, then, as if waking from a dream, they bowed down with heartfelt admiration. Incidentally, Porcupine Douluo interjected, "Young Master, since that's the case, what should be done with these people?"

"I'll handle this personally..." Qian Renxue's smile was meaningful, "Judging from the testimonies, it seems they didn't receive the Commoner Soul Master subsidies provided by the Spirit Hall. After the Spirit Hall Spirit Hall's destruction, no other force replaced it to provide these Commoner Soul Master with even the most basic subsidies!"
