"Little Wind, now you're all grown up, huh?"
As soon as Qianrenfeng finished speaking, he received a playful smack on the head from "Xue Qinghe," who laughed and scolded, "You're starting to think about your sister now!"
"You'll naturally be staying at Yue Xuan for these three years. Are you planning to stay in the Prince's Palace instead?"
Xue Qinghe didn't hit hard, but Qianrenfeng pretended to be in pain, clutching the spot she had tapped, and moaned, "Sister, you're being too rough!"
"I'm going to faint!"
Afterward, Qianrenfeng threw himself dramatically onto Xue Qinghe's lap, clutching it tightly. Xue Qinghe helplessly patted his head with one hand while sending a signal to the guards downstairs with the other:
"Send the message back. Tell His Majesty that the Crown Prince is drunk at the Listening Cloud Tower and will not be returning to the palace today. Make sure His Majesty hears this!"
As she spoke, Xue Qinghe gently stroked Qianrenfeng's soft hair and smiled, "Silly little brother, do you know how much harder it's going to be for me with you asleep?"
In his sleep, Qianrenfeng mumbled, "Sister, I'll come back and take you home soon."
The next day.
The two of them arrived at the entrance of Yue Xuan together.
Yue Xuan was an academy in the Tiandou Empire dedicated to teaching aristocrats court etiquette, essentially an institution for the nobility's children.
Graduates from here often carry a subtle aristocratic air, something that all of the Tiandou royal family's descendants must learn. A few dukes and earls would also send their children here to ensure they carried the same noble aura.
Xue Qinghe had replaced his fan with a small etiquette scepter, and he casually pushed open the doors to the hall on the first floor, sitting down and addressing a girl who was dressed plainly but had an exceptionally refined appearance.
"Is the headmaster here? Please let them know that the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire, Xue Qinghe, is here to visit!"
The girl's expression changed, clearly shocked. She couldn't believe that the young man before her, who appeared ordinary but exuded an extraordinary aura, was the future heir of the Tiandou Empire, Xue Qinghe!
She quickly bent her waist and curtsied respectfully, revealing a slight blush as she said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, please wait a moment. I will inform the headmaster right away."
Xue Qinghe spoke his identity so confidently in Yue Xuan because he had no fear. After witnessing his brother's strength the previous day, Xue Qinghe no longer worried about anything.
Even if a Title Douluo were to act, his brother could protect him. What was there to fear now?
A moment later, the sound of high heels tapping on the wooden floor grew louder, and a beautiful woman dressed in a silver palace gown appeared before them.
Though the woman wasn't stunningly beautiful, her demeanor was graceful, and her silver gown seemed custom-made to accentuate her figure, highlighting her unique beauty.
"Your Highness, you're here again. Today, dressed in plain clothes, are you planning a covert visit?"
Xue Qinghe smiled gently and stood up respectfully when he saw her. "Auntie Yuehua, you jest."
"Since I've left the palace, it's naturally hard to conceal my identity, so I thought it best to dress simply to avoid any unnecessary trouble."
"But I'm here today to introduce a friend of mine to you. He wishes to join Yue Xuan to learn, but he's troubled by not having a noble title. I was wondering if you could do me a favor and take him in."
Yuehua's gaze shifted to Qianrenfeng. From the moment she laid eyes on him, she could sense the faint yet intense killing intent emanating from him.
However, Qianrenfeng had controlled this killing intent so well that even Yuehua, at first glance, couldn't notice it unless she focused.
"Ah, your friend sure has a strong killing intent."
"Did he just return from the Star Dou Forest? It seems like he made quite a harvest, probably even secured a soul ring that he's satisfied with."
"Your Highness, you've caused me some trouble."
Yuehua teased Xue Qinghe playfully. While others might not have been able to perceive the killing intent on Qianrenfeng, she was certainly capable of doing so!
The Noble Circle and Angel Domain are somewhat similar in their functions, both having a purifying effect.
To some extent, the Noble Circle could suppress the God of Slaughter's domain. As for Qianrenfeng's Asura Domain, Yuehua could only guide it at best.
But for Qianrenfeng, this was enough.
Xue Qinghe couldn't help but laugh. "Auntie Yuehua, you exaggerate. I'm only introducing a student to you. I love you dearly, so how could I possibly cause you trouble?"
"Since you're willing to accept him, I'll take my leave now."
He smiled and cupped his hands. "If he's disobedient, Auntie Yuehua, feel free to punish him."
"Since you're willing to take him in, I'll leave him in your care. I'll take him to find a place to stay today and will return him to you tomorrow!"
With that, Xue Qinghe led Qianrenfeng out of the room. Today was mainly about solving Qianrenfeng's enrollment issue. Yuehua would take care of the rest.
After all, Yue Xuan was under the control of the Tiandou royal family, so they had to show Xue Qinghe some respect!
Moreover, the relationship between Xue Qinghe and Yuehua was quite good privately.
Once they stepped out of Yue Xuan, Xue Qinghe whispered into Qianrenfeng's ear.
"The master of Yue Xuan has ties to the Snow Night Emperor of the Tiandou Empire, but even I haven't uncovered all the details."
"However, I've managed to find out about her background!"
"Although she's known as the headmaster of Yue Xuan, she's a member of the Heaven Dou Empire's most powerful sect, the Haotian Sect!"
"Your mission, little brother, is to challenge the youth prodigies of various sects and forces to spread the name of the Angel Douluo. So, you will inevitably face the Haotian Sect!"
"Only by defeating the Title Douluo of the Haotian Sect can the name of the Angel God truly shake the world!"
