Chapter 127 Late-night date with Qian Renxue
There were also many soul masters from all walks of life who came to watch the ceremony.
As the host, the Dragon Soul Sect cannot lose its manners and needs to immediately provide proper comfort and resettlement.
In addition, the cleanup of the battlefield and the gratitude to Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong all require him, as the sect leader, to personally oversee and arrange.
Therefore, even the Crown Prince "Xue Qinghe" in front of him secretly helped him a lot.
Lin Xiao didn't have much time at the moment to play some hypocritical court games with a future angel god wearing a mask.
It was "Xue Qinghe" who watched Lin Xiao command his subordinates in an orderly manner and deal with the complicated post-war affairs.
A hint of deep thought and inquiry flashed in those golden eyes hidden under the gentle mask.
How many secrets does this Lin Xiao still hide?
Not only was he able to attract his own mother, but the almighty Pope Bibi Dong also personally came to Tiandou City and granted him the honorable position of the Law Enforcement Elder of the Spirit Hall as an exception.
He could even gain his mother's absolute trust, and have five thousand elite Spirit Hall spirit masters entrusted to him for his own deployment and squandering.
Now... he actually knew the secret of his father Qian Xunji's death!
This caused a huge storm in the heart of "Xue Qinghe", that is, Qian Renxue.
Her father's death has always been an obsession that she cannot let go of.
She had been lurking in the Tiandou Empire for many years. In addition to completing the tasks assigned by her grandfather Qian Daoliu, she had also been secretly investigating the truth of the past.
But no matter how she investigated, the information she obtained all pointed to Tang Hao and the official statement of the Spirit Hall.
But what Lin Xiao mentioned today made her keenly aware that things were not that simple!
After a brief thought, "Xue Qinghe" seemed to have made up his mind, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.
She looked at Lin Xiao, who had already made preliminary arrangements for all matters, and stepped forward again.
"Sect Master Lin! I have some doubts and would like to ask you for advice."
"But this matter is of great importance and involves confidentiality. May I have a moment to discuss this?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao stopped, turned around, and looked calmly at Qian Renxue, who was disguised as Prince Tiandou.
Of course, he could guess what the heir of the angel god wanted to ask most at this moment.
It's nothing more than the real cause of death of her father Qianxunji and some secrets of Bibi Dong.
But Lin Xiao was a little surprised that she was so impatient.
Even at the huge risk of exposing his identity, he is determined to find out the truth of that year from himself here and now.
It seems that family affection and obsession are far more important in the heart of this future angel god than imagined.
Lin Xiao was silent for a moment, weighing the pros and cons.
Finally, he slowly responded:
"Your Highness."
"At this time and place, there are so many people and eyes, it is really inconvenient to talk."
"How about waiting until the dead of night, Your Highness, and then moving to my secret room so we can discuss this in detail?"
Upon hearing this, "Xue Qinghe" immediately calmed down and quickly regained his composure.
"That's great. I'll come and bother you again tonight at midnight."
After saying that, she bowed slightly, then turned and stepped aside, quietly watching Lin Xiao continue to give orders, as if the anxiety just now had never happened.
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi, who had just communicated with Chen Xin and Gu Rong, also walked to the side of "Xue Qinghe".
His eyes first swept over the busy Lin Xiao, then turned to the disciple beside him.
"Qinghe! I'm sure you're aware that the rise of this Lin clan leader is unstoppable."
"The strength and heritage displayed by the Dragon Soul Sect today is enough to attract the attention of any faction."
"If your Tiandou Empire wants stability and wants to gain a favorable position in future changes, I'm afraid... you have to pay more attention to him."
"Xue Qinghe" bowed slightly respectfully to Ning Fengzhi.
"Teacher! I understand."
"With the support of Teacher's Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and Sect Master Lin's Dragon Soul Sect, the Tiandou Imperial Family will surely prosper and enjoy peace and prosperity in the future."
Her words were flawless, acknowledging Ning Fengzhi's words while also mentioning the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. It only then became clear that she valued both parties.
Ning Fengzhi nodded with satisfaction and said no more.
…
Night falls quietly, washing away the blood and dust of the day's hustle and bustle.
In the Dragon Soul Sect, the number of brightly lit areas gradually decreased, with only the footsteps of patrolling disciples occasionally breaking the tranquility of the night.
Deep within the Dragon Soul Sect, in a heavily guarded secret room.
Lin Xiao sat alone in the main seat, tapping the table lightly with his fingers, making a regular sound.
The furnishings in the secret room are simple, but there is a solemn atmosphere.
The walls are made of unknown metal, isolating all sounds and prying eyes from inside and outside.
He is waiting for someone.
Waiting for the woman lurking in the heart of the Tiandou Empire, who is destined to hold the throne of the angel god in the future - Qian Renxue.
He was thinking about how much to reveal and how to guide the conversation tonight.
This concerns the future structure of the Spirit Hall and even affects the direction of the entire continent.
Time flows slowly, approaching midnight.
The heavy metal door of the secret room was pushed open silently.
A figure dressed in the light golden prince's uniform walked in quietly.
The person who came was "Xue Qinghe".
She waved to the guards outside the door to retreat and closed the door herself.
In the secret room, only Lin Xiao and she were left.
Under the dim light of the soul guide, "Xue Qinghe"'s face was still gentle and elegant.
But the eyes that looked at Lin Xiao had shed the disguise they had during the day, revealing a hint of eagerness and inquiry that was difficult to conceal.
However, before she could open her mouth, Lin Xiao's first words were enough to make her feel frightened.
"We are the only two here. I don't know if I should address you as Your Highness the Crown Prince or Miss Qian Renxue."
As soon as these words were spoken, the air in the secret room seemed to freeze instantly.
"Xue Qinghe", no, it should be Qian Renxue, the golden pupils under the gentle mask suddenly shrank and stared at Lin Xiao.
She tried to catch a hint of temptation or uncertainty on Lin Xiao's calm face.
But Lin Xiao's expression was as indifferent as water, as if he was just stating a very simple fact.
After a long while, Qian Renxue finally gave in, because she could not see any flaws on Lin Xiao's face.
"Sect Master Lin's source of information is truly terrifying. It seems that Xue'er has no secrets left in front of you."
After she finished speaking, she simply stopped pretending.
A faint golden halo surged around her body, and her bones made a slight crackling sound.
In just a moment, the gentle and elegant Prince "Xue Qinghe" disappeared.
Instead, there was a peerless beauty dressed in luxurious palace clothes, with long, soft golden hair like a waterfall, a breathtaking figure, and a noble and holy temperament, like a goddess descending to the earth.
