As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Tianheng abruptly distanced himself from Qian Renxue.
"I..."
This small step back felt like a knife stabbing into Qian Renxue's heart.
It made her feel a little breathless.
Why is there such a distance between Yu Tianheng and her?
" Tian Heng, actually, the Xue Qinghe before was me. I was a woman disguised as a man."
Qian Renxue wrapped her arms around Yu Tianheng's waist and buried her face in his chest.
Yu Tianheng could feel that something had soaked through his clothes at the chest.
No way? Could it be that Qian Renxue has really fallen for him?
Isn't that just ridiculous?
Has Qian Renxue lost her mind?
Suddenly, a good idea came to Yu Tianheng's mind.
He took several steps back, feigning utter surprise as he spoke.
"Are you Xue Qinghe?"
His acting was absolutely perfect; he executed even the slightest facial expression flawlessly.
There wasn't a single flaw to be found.
"Yes, it's me."
Qian Renxue thought her sincere confession had some effect, and nodded firmly in affirmation of Yu Tianheng's words.
But the next second, a look of disgust appeared on Yu Tianheng's face.
"I originally thought you were an upright and honorable person. The reason you disguised yourself as Xue Qinghe was to take the opportunity to annex the Heaven Dou Empire, wasn't it? The Spirit Hall really has a good mind!"
At this point, Yu Tianheng clapped his hands.
These words and actions left Qian Renxue speechless.
I don't know how to defend myself.
Or rather, there's no way to defend oneself.
After all, what Yu Tianheng said was true.
This was the Spirit Hall's original plan.
Qian Renxue always believed that as long as she confessed this, Yu Tianheng would definitely remember their past relationship.
But they forgot about this crucial point.
"I've already told you, you don't need to come looking for me anymore. I don't want the Tian Heng Empire and the Spirit Hall to go to war. At least we can still be considered friends now, let's not even lose that."
Yu Tianheng coldly uttered a sentence and turned to leave.
After a moment's hesitation, Qian Renxue seemed to have grasped some key information and asked.
"You mean, we're still friends?"
For some reason, Yu Tianheng detected a hint of joy in that tone.
His steps faltered involuntarily.
This statement... it's so similar to those sycophantic quotes I heard in my past life!
Could it be that Qian Renxue also has some hidden attribute?
But in order not to waste any more time with Qian Renxue, Yu Tianheng didn't ask any more questions.
When I pushed the door open and came back, Hu Liena was pacing back and forth anxiously.
She had overheard most of the conversation between Yu Tianheng and Qian Renxue.
She really hadn't expected that Qian Renxue would have such feelings for Yu Tianheng.
If the Pope finds out, Qian Renxue will definitely not have a good ending.
Is there anything else?
Yu Tianheng almost forgot about this one, and casually asked about it.
His tone remained as cold as it had been just moments before.
"No... it's nothing."
Hu Liena felt her thoughts were in complete disarray, and she couldn't make sense of it at all.
"If everything's alright, then see them out!"
At Yu Tianheng's command, several guards appeared from nowhere.
He gestured for Hu Liena to follow them.
This act of seeing the guest off implies that they cannot be refused.
When Hu Liena came out, Qian Renxue was still walking slowly in the distance.
But a faint smile lingered at the corner of his mouth.
If you didn't know better, you'd probably think she'd just finished a date with her sweetheart.
After all, the way he was acting was just too happy.
Upon seeing this, Hu Liena quickly moved to a corner to the side.
She was terrified that Qian Renxue would see her.
Otherwise, she really wouldn't be able to explain herself.
Unfortunately, Qian Renxue walked too slowly.
Hu Liena could only move her feet little by little in the wind and snow.
I felt extremely uncomfortable.
After returning to his room, Yu Tianheng glanced at it casually.
I happened to see this scene outside the window.
Putting everything else aside, this is genuinely hilarious.
Hu Liena's actions, in particular, were not much different from those of a thief.
It wasn't until late at night that Hu Liena finally reached a relatively open and safe place.
After confirming that Qian Renxue wouldn't notice, he decisively chose to go back in another direction.
" Your Pope, shouldn't the plan against the Tian Heng Empire begin?"
Spirit Hall, several of the Pope's trusted confidants asked the question.
The Tian Heng Empire is currently enjoying immense popularity.
Even the Tian Heng Team swept through the Soul Master Tournament.
Whether in terms of national strength or other aspects, it is incomparable to the original Heaven Dou Empire.
In fact, if I hadn't witnessed the changes in history firsthand...
No one would have imagined that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon would possess such strength.
This is precisely what the Spirit Hall fears.
From being the second-best of the Upper Three Sects for thousands of years, to now...
Only ten years have passed.
If given another ten years, everyone would agree.
The Tian Heng Empire will definitely take action against the Spirit Hall at that time.
In the past, only the Spirit Hall had ever taken action against others.
This was the first time they had ever felt like they were being manipulated.
Absolutely unacceptable.
To prevent following in the footsteps of the Heaven Dou Empire.
After discussion, everyone agreed that they should strike first.
Bibi Dong, who was previously the Pope, had always tacitly approved of this.
In any case, it's never a bad thing to make some preparations beforehand.
Now all eyes are on Bibi Dong.
It seems they are waiting for her to make a decision.
"No need to rush, this matter needs to be considered carefully."
After a moment of contemplation, Bibi Dong slowly spoke.
The Pope's authority was such that no one dared to disobey her.
However, someone couldn't help but ask, "Why, Pope Holiness? Why not send an undercover agent to infiltrate the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan while they're recruiting talented individuals? The results might be even better than when they dealt with the Heaven Dou Empire."
That is indeed the case; it was precisely because the Heaven Dou Empire had not had such an opportunity before.
That's why Qian Renxue this way.
Bibi Dong slowly shook her head, directly rejecting the suggestion.
The Tian Heng Empire is not as simple as it appears on the surface.
Bibi Dong and Yu Tianheng had met before when they watched the game.
The aura that Yu Tianheng exuded was something that no normal person could possess.
It's like he's a divinely ordained emperor.
He is Titled Douluo, and Titled Douluo with Twin Martial Souls.
Bibi Dong is definitely among the top figures in the entire Douluo Continent.
At that moment, she unintentionally released a slight sense of pressure.
