Hearing Jin Hao's words, Qian Renxue's eyes widened. Xiao Hao had actually found something connected to a Godhead?

What kind of luck was that?

So Qian Renxue asked Jin Hao:

"Xiao Hao, are you telling the truth? Did you really find something related to a Godhead?"

Jin Hao replied to Qian Renxue:

"Xue'er, would I lie to you? We grew up together, so you know me. If I hadn't found this thing, why wouldn't I return to Spirit City with you?"

Hearing Jin Hao confirm it again, and seeing how sincere his gaze was, Qian Renxue more or less believed him.

At the same time, Qian Renxue thought that if Jin Hao truly obtained a Godhead inheritance, then once both of them became gods, they could stay together forever. They would not have to worry about one of them dying because of their lifespan.

Then Qian Renxue said to Jin Hao:

"Xiao Hao, since you've found something related to a Godhead and can obtain a Godhead inheritance, I won't oppose you staying in the Heaven Dou Empire. But if you get involved with other women while you're here, just wait and see how I deal with you."

Jin Hao immediately declared:

"Xue'er, how could that be? You already agreed to be my wife when we were children. How could I possibly get involved with other women?"

As Jin Hao's words fell, Qian Renxue's face immediately reddened. She recalled how, when she had played with three- or four-year-old Jin Hao as a nearly ten-year-old girl, she had somehow said she would grant him one wish. At the time, Qian Renxue had not thought Jin Hao would ask for anything serious; in her eyes, he had merely been a three- or four-year-old child.

But Jin Hao was a transmigrator and knew about Qian Renxue's future. So when Qian Renxue had grandly declared that she would agree to anything, Jin Hao said, "I want you to marry me in the future."

Those words instantly stunned the previously cheerful Qian Renxue. But when Jin Hao said:

"You wouldn't go back on your word, would you?"

"You wouldn't be lying to me, would you?"

With those words pressing her, Qian Renxue directly said:

"What is there to be afraid of? I always keep my word."

That was how it began, and the two of them had always had a good relationship.

At that moment, Qian Renxue patted her flushed cheeks and said:

"It had better be."

Then Qian Renxue remembered that Jin Hao would be infiltrating the Heaven Dou Empire from now on, while she would be alone in Spirit City.

Thinking of that, Qian Renxue was reluctant to part with him. But for the Godhead Jin Hao said he could obtain, she could only agree.

In the end, Qian Renxue came up with an idea and said to Jin Hao:

"Xiao Hao, while you're undercover, I'll often come to Heaven Dou City to see you. And while I'm at it, I'll check whether you've done anything out of line."

Jin Hao did not think there was anything wrong with that and said to Qian Renxue:

"As long as you don't think it wastes time or affects your cultivation, I'd be more than happy to. We could see each other more often too."

After the two had said that, Qian Renxue added:

"Xiao Hao, you'll be alone in the Heaven Dou Empire from now on, trying to obtain that thing related to the Godhead. If you run into any problems, safety comes first. If it really comes to it, I'll have Grandfather and the others help you. At worst, we'll just seize that thing you mentioned."

Jin Hao immediately waved his hands repeatedly. Although he wanted to obtain the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud and try to gain the Sea God's Godhead, what mattered more was that he did not want to return to Spirit City. He intended to rely on the Heaven Dou Empire to carry out his revenge.

Thinking of this gave Jin Hao a headache. The reason was simple: he wanted to use his undercover identity in the Heaven Dou Empire to build a force of his own, then destroy the Pope's Palace led by Bibi Dong—especially kill that heartless woman, Bibi Dong.

Then he would become the ruler of the Douluo Continent and do something for its people himself. But that would mean killing Qian Renxue's biological mother, and Jin Hao's goal of unifying the Douluo Continent would also weaken Qian Renxue's Spirit Hall.

So Jin Hao did not know how he would face Qian Renxue when the time came, much less how he would face those old men of the Worship Hall.

From another perspective, what he wanted to do would look no different from Bibi Dong's actions in the eyes of those old men.

But Jin Hao had never considered giving up on his plan, because he did not want incidents like what happened to Qin Ying to occur on the Douluo Continent again.

So at that moment, Jin Hao wondered how he would face Qian Renxue once that day arrived.

In the end, Jin Hao could not think of any solution for the moment, so he could only wait until that day came. There was no point thinking about it now; soldiers would come to block the enemy, and water would come to be stopped by earth.

Jin Hao stopped thinking about it and said to Qian Renxue before him:

"Xue'er, don't worry. I'm confident I can get that thing myself, so there's no need to have those old men take action and seize it for me."

Qian Renxue said nothing after hearing that. In her view, if Jin Hao encountered any difficulty, she could bring people from Spirit Hall to help him at any time.

Just then, Golden Crocodile Douluo outside saw that the time was about right, so he pushed open the private room's door. He then saw Qian Renxue and Jin Hao sitting together, both having recovered their composure.

Golden Crocodile Douluo said:

"You two little ones, how did your talk go? Xiao Hao, when are we leaving to return? Tomorrow, we'll make that engagement ceremony Xue Ye prepared lose face before the entire Douluo Continent."

In Golden Crocodile Douluo's view, Qian Renxue had already said she did not want to go undercover just to earn Bibi Dong's approval. And now the two of them were sitting together with smiles on their faces. He therefore thought their group would soon leave Heaven Dou City and return to Spirit City, and that his grandson would once again grow up before his eyes.

Golden Crocodile Douluo was overjoyed at the thought.

At that moment, Jin Hao said to Golden Crocodile Douluo:

"Grandfather, when did I say I was returning to Spirit City? I spoke with Xiao Xue. I'll continue going undercover in the Heaven Dou Empire."

"Huh?"

"How could this be? Xiao Xue's side is already settled, so why aren't you returning? Why do you still want to waste the best years for cultivating Soul Power by going undercover in the Heaven Dou Empire?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo showed his intense confusion!
