Ning Bei scanned the secret room. The walls were covered with Soul Tool lights, so even without sunlight, it didn't feel gloomy.
"What do you think? Wasn't it you who asked me to prepare the personnel for the Soul Master Competition?"
Qian Renxue was a little puzzled by Ning Bei's explanation.
"Didn't you just need to select the personnel? What's so busy about it?"
"Tch, I don't need to take people Soul Hunting."
"Does the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect need you to personally lead people to Soul Hunting?"
"Don't I have to keep an eye on the quality of the members for you? If you say that again, I'm not doing it!"
Looking at the depressed Ning Bei, Qian Renxue covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Then what reward do you want?"
"No need for a reward. It's just that we haven't been to the Ice God Hall in a while, and it's almost gathering dust."
Qian Renxue lightly spat, a blush appearing on her face, which then turned serious again.
"Are you confident in defeating the Spirit Hall Team?"
"Heh, are you doubting my judgment? Not to brag, but before the Soul Master Competition, we can assemble a team of all Soul Kings to participate."
Qian Renxue's eyes lit up instantly.
"Really?"
"Of course, it's true. Let's get this straight, I even persuaded Yanzi to come and support you, so you can't be jealous of her anymore."
The Little Angel's expression immediately became strange. Doesn't he get jealous of me?
"Didn't she say anything? Like..."
Ning Bei knew what she wanted to ask and scratched his head awkwardly. He hadn't come clean with Dugu Yan yet!
Qian Renxue immediately understood something from Ning Bei's expression and glared at him with disdain.
"Hmph, even if she's not jealous, I won't say anything. When you've settled things with that Poison Girl, then come talk to me about this!"
"Also, crush the Spirit Hall Team under your feet. I want them to never be able to raise their heads again."
Towards the end, the Little Angel began to grit her teeth, showing how much she loathed certain people in the Spirit Hall Team.
But thinking about it, the care she couldn't get from her mother was all taken away by a certain little fox, who also occupied her position as the Spirit Hall Saintess. Anyone would feel unbalanced.
But what the little fox does has nothing to do with me. It's more important to appease the Little Angel.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely make you proud!"
With confidence in the Soul Master Competition, the Little Angel's mood also improved.
"I've investigated the Xue Beng matter, and it's indeed as you said. He's been hiding his abilities all along."
"Well, what do you plan to do?"
Finding a soft chair to sit down, Ning Bei lazily looked at her.
"Of course, it's about finding an opportunity to eliminate him, otherwise he'll always be a hidden danger."
Ning Bei shook his head, holding a different view in his heart.
"I don't think it's necessary. He's the only surviving son of Xue Ye. If he also dies unexpectedly, then your identity as Xue Qinghe becomes the sole beneficiary, which might cause other problems."
Qian Renxue frowned and thought for a moment, Ning Bei's words made sense.
"Then I'll just let him and that Xue Xing develop?"
"Why bother with them? You have the identity of the Crown Prince, so just adapt to whatever comes. Doing too much will only cause trouble. Once you successfully ascend the throne, are you afraid you can't deal with a Xue Beng?"
"Alright, I'll listen to you, but I'll send people to monitor his every move."
"Rather than Xue Xing, I'm more concerned about theVast Sea Universe Cover (Vast Sea Universe Cover). Is there any progress?"
Qian Renxue smiled confidently.
"It depends on how well the team you prepared performs. When the time comes, I plan to ask Xue Ye for the Vast Sea Universe Cover (Vast Sea Universe Cover) by claiming credit for winning the Soul Master Competition championship."
Ning Bei nodded, he couldn't imagine any reason why his team would lose.
"Then there's no problem, just wait and see!"
Seeing the expression on her man's face, as if he didn't take the Spirit Hall Team seriously at all, Qian Renxue kindly reminded him.
"Don't be too careless. Among the three Soul Kings in this Spirit Hall Team, there's a pair of siblings who possess a Spirit Fusion Skill."
"You're talking about Xie Yue and Hu Liena, right? I've already taken their Spirit Fusion Skill into account. I'll have Yanzi on the field for the final battle. By then, she'll have nearly reached the strength of a Soul Sage, so they shouldn't be able to cause any trouble."
"What? That Poison Girl has such a high cultivation?"
The Little Angel's eyes widened, her heart filled with indignation. Why could a Jade Phosphor Serpent's cultivation speed be comparable to her Six-Winged Angel Spirit?
Seeing Qian Renxue's expression as if he was treating her differently, Ning Bei quickly explained.
"You know I was with her earlier, so naturally I gave her some help within my ability."
"So?"
The Little Angel's eyes slowly became aggrieved. So, I'm not important anymore?
Ning Bei shook his head amusingly. She's starting to compare. His hands weren't slow either, taking out two Immortal Herbs from his Soul Tool, one of the flowers had a stone attached to the bottom of its stem.
"These two are the Corona Flower and the Lovesick Heartbreak Red. You can choose one to consume."
Qian Renxue looked at the unknown herbs in Ning Bei's hand with a face full of doubt.
"What are the effects of these?"
Ning Bei told the story of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red in detail, causing ripples in Qian Renxue's heart.
"As the king of Immortal Herbs, the Lovesick Heartbreak Red can bring the dead back to life and regrow flesh on bones. When a Soul Master consumes it, their Soul Power can be greatly improved, depending on whether you can gain its approval."
Looking at the beautiful figure in front of him with complicated eyes, he couldn't help but think that he couldn't treat her wholeheartedly, yet he was asking her to be loyal to him until death. He was indeed a bit of a bastard.
"Of course, if you're not confident in gaining the Lovesick Heartbreak Red's approval, this Corona Flower, which absorbs the essence of the sun, is also very suitable for you. It's also of considerable help to Soul Masters with fire and light attributes, but its effects are definitely not as good as the former."
Qian Renxue didn't hesitate too much and directly took the Lovesick Heartbreak Red. The story behind this flower made her yearn for it.
Her beautiful eyes rolled at Ning Bei, and amidst his sheepish smile, she began to recall the fragments of their shared experiences.
Starting from their less-than-pleasant encounter in the Star Dou Great Forest, to him assisting her in building her team, unconditionally helping her cultivate with elixirs, and then always making her angry whenever they met.
From his compromising attitude when her grandfather arrived, to her selflessly blocking the Ice Emperor's attack for him in the Far North Land, and finally, their honest and open conversation in the Ice God Hall.
As Qian Renxue thought about these things, a blush slowly crept onto her pretty face. She didn't know when, but the man before her had already left a strong and indelible mark on her life.
Thinking of these past events, the Little Angel slowly spat out a mouthful of heart's blood towards the Lovesick Heartbreak Red.
As the Lovesick Heartbreak Red came into contact with Qian Renxue's heart's blood, it slowly emitted a golden-red luster. After several dozen seconds, it separated from the stone and gently landed in the Little Angel's hand.
Seeing this, Qian Renxue's eyes showed surprise, and she excitedly looked at Ning Bei.
"Did I, gain its approval?"
Ning Bei looked at Qian Renxue with guilt and slowly nodded.
"That's right, you can take it now, it will at least allow you to become a Soul Sage."
