Chapter 166: Li Xin, the Companion.
"This is the soul bone Bibi Dong offered in exchange. Take a look. Are you satisfied? If not, there's no need to compromise yourself for Xue'er's sake!"
Qian Daoliu then took out three high-quality, ten-thousand-year soul bones and handed them to Yang Ziyuan.
Yang Ziyuan examined them and stored them in his Jade Palace.
He then took out the champion soul bone.
"Grandpa, when did you end up running errands for her?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Daoliu's face darkened, and he said angrily, "You brat! I just happened to run into that woman and didn't want her to ruin your relationship, so I took on this job. To my surprise, not only are you ungrateful, but you're even making fun of me!
You're really ungrateful!" "I'm just curious! Calm down,"
Yang Ziyuan said hastily, handing over the champion soul bone. Seeing this,
Qian Daoliu took it and snorted, "Hmph, I don't want to bother with you. By the way, the undercover agent is preparing to leave for Tiandou City. What are you going to do?"
"So soon?" Yang Ziyuan was a little surprised to hear this news. After all, the Soul Master Competition was over, but the post-game celebrations weren't over yet! In his impression, didn't these major forces always enjoy participating in such events? Why did they break with their usual routine and leave early this time? "It's because of you!" "My reasons?" Seeing Yang Ziyuan didn't understand, Qian Daoliu patiently explained, "Ever since you exposed Xue'er's identity, Ning Fengzhi and the other two have been secretly contacting various forces, trying to form an alliance to fight against the Spirit Hall and your Poyi Clan! Perhaps the marriage between our two families has put pressure on them. That's why they chose to leave Spirit City early." Upon hearing this, Yang Ziyuan suddenly understood. So that's how it is! If that happened, he would probably have to leave early too. "Grandpa, how did you know about Ning Fengzhi's little trick?" Qian Daoliu rolled his eyes at Qian Renxue's question. "While you two were dating, this old man of mine wasn't idle! Besides, in this Wuhun City, they're still a little naive to try to hide it from me!" At this point, Qian Daoliu suddenly remembered something and quickly said, "Xiao Yuan, I don't know what you're up to. But I hope you can do it cleanly and don't expose your undercover agent!" "Yes, I understand!" Yang Ziyuan nodded heavily, expressing his understanding of Qian Daoliu's concerns. "Okay, I should go! Remember what I said!" With that, Qian Daoliu, no longer wanting to be a light bulb, transformed into a stream of light and left. "Xue'er, I'm afraid I can't stay with you." After a moment of tenderness, Yang Ziyuan whispered to Qian Renxue, his eyes filled with apology and reluctance. Qian Renxue forced a smile and said, "It's okay. Business is more important. Go!" She tried to appear strong, but inside she was filled with disappointment and worry. "Xue'er, I love you!" Yang Ziyuan took a deep breath, lowered his head, and kissed her forehead lightly. This gentle gesture made Qian Renxue feel a little warm, but at the same time it also deepened her reluctance. Then, Yang Ziyuan turned and left. Seeing this, Qian Renxue's expression suddenly stiffened, her eyes were slightly hot, and tears couldn't help but slide down. "Ziyuan, have a safe trip!" She murmured in a low voice, her eyes always following Yang Ziyuan's figure. Qian Renxue didn't come back to her senses until Yang Ziyuan completely disappeared from her sight. Then, she plunged into the Angel Secret Realm. Wuhun City, at the city gate. "Sect Master Ning, why hasn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince arrived yet?" "Master, please be patient! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not like us with only a few people. He also needs to arrange the affairs of the Royal Knights. So, it will definitely take some time." "Oh, that's true!"

After saying this, Yu Xiaogang stood aside, quietly waiting.
Not long after, an incredibly ornate carriage slowly approached.
Seeing it, Ning Fengzhi and the other two hurried over.
"Teacher, please get on board quickly."
Hearing Xue Qinghe's greeting, Ning Fengzhi and the other two jumped onto the carriage without hesitation.
Once inside, they discovered that besides Xue Qinghe, there was also a plain-looking man inside.
"Qinghe, who is this?"
Hearing Ning Fengzhi's question, Xue Qinghe smiled faintly, "Teacher, this is a friend of mine. He's also going back to Tiandou City, so I brought him along."
After hearing Xue Qinghe's explanation, Ning Fengzhi looked skeptical.
A friend?
How could he not have heard that Xue Qinghe had friends in Wuhun City?
However, he didn't dwell on it.
After all, as a member of the royal family, Xue Qinghe undoubtedly had many more connections than a sect leader like him.
So, Ning Fengzhi quickly let down his guard and began chatting.
"May I know your surname, little brother? Where are you from?"
"My surname is Li, my given name is Xin, and I'm a layman! So far, I've barely reached the Soul Master level."
"So you're Brother Li Xin. Please have a seat,"
Ning Fengzhi said
, motioning for Li Xin to sit down. Li Xin didn't refuse and sat down.
"Brother Li, are you here in Wuhun City to watch the Soul Master Competition?"
"Yes!"
"Then what do you think of this Soul Master Competition?"
Hearing this, Li Xin pretended to think for a moment, then said, "I think the highlight of this Soul Master Competition isn't the contestants' performances. It's the attitude of the Poyi Clan!"
Ning Fengzhi immediately piqued his interest.
"Brother Li, what do you mean?"
"Everyone knows the Spirit Hall's ambitions, but few know the Po Yi Clan's strength is also not to be underestimated! Judging by the Spirit Hall's treatment of Yang Ziyuan, they must have reached a consensus. This is not a good thing for us! The continent will inevitably be in turmoil!"
"I didn't expect Brother Li's insights to be so insightful!"
Ning Fengzhi praised Li Xin's explanation.
"No, no, I was just speculating. Please don't take it to heart, Sect Master Ning. Perhaps things aren't what I thought!"
"No, no, no!!! You may not know that the Po Yi Clan has already formed an alliance with the Spirit Hall. Therefore, your concerns are completely correct!"
Ning Fengzhi, understanding the whole story, suddenly realized that Li Xin was a rare talent.
Before meeting Qian Renxue, he wasn't sure whether the Po Yi Clan had already colluded with the Spirit Hall.
However, this Li Xin, through these subtle observations, had directly deduced the truth.
This shows that this boy is definitely not just any ordinary person!
Thinking of this, Ning Fengzhi suddenly understood why Xue Qinghe wanted to befriend him.
Although he was only a small Soul Master, he possessed a keen vision.
Moreover, judging by his age, he
was not very old. Given time, he had a great chance of breaking through to Soul Douluo, not to mention Soul Sage.
Thinking of this, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "Since Xue Qinghe can't grasp this kind of talent, then my Ning family must strive to get him!"
