—------------------—
At the same time, a thought flashed through his mind:
If Qian Renxue could discover her own six-winged angel spirit, there was no reason why Qian Daoliu, the chief priest of the Spirit Hall, would not know about it.
After all, Qian Daoliu is the guardian of the Angel God, and his perception of angel martial spirits is far more acute than Qian Renxue.
It seems that this secret of his is no longer a secret in the eyes of the Spirit Hall's top leaders.
"Since you've already seen it, I won't hide it from you."
Xue Tianxing decided to go with the flow and decided to "play" with Qian Renxue.
He first pretended to be panicked as if his secret had been exposed, his eyes flickering and his body slightly tense. Then, cold air suddenly erupted from his body, ice-blue soul power surged, and five soul rings of yellow, purple, purple, black, and black lit up in sequence - the Ice Phoenix Martial Spirit instantly possessed his body, and a sharp aura spread out, as if he was ready to attack at the slightest disagreement.
Seeing this, Qian Renxue quickly waved her hands, her tone soothing:
"Don't get me wrong, I have no ill will towards you! I just want to say that the six-winged angel spirit is extremely rare. Even among our angel clan, it is difficult to give birth to a member with this spirit.
In a sense, we are a family."
Qian Renxue paused, then changed the subject and revealed her true purpose:
"I know you are the prince of the Barak Kingdom and you may very well inherit the Barak throne in the future.
Your Barak Kingdom is developing at a good pace now, but after all, it is only a vassal state of the Tiandou Empire and is constrained by Tiandou in every way.
There are some things we, the Spirit Hall, can help you with—for example, replacing the Tiandou Empire, making Barak a truly independent and powerful nation, or even...making you the new ruler of Douluo Continent."
Xue Tianxing pretended to be surprised, a hint of "movement" flashed in his eyes, and the ice-blue soul power around him gradually converged, as if he was really moved by Qian Renxue's proposal and relaxed his vigilance.
However, he knew very well what Qian Renxue was planning: Qian Renxue had been implementing her "plan to steal the country", wanting to seize power in the Tiandou Empire and make Tiandou a vassal of the Spirit Hall.
As she possessed the six-winged angel spirit, she felt that she was born to stand on the same front with the Spirit Hall.
Letting herself replace the Tiandou Empire and controlling Tiandou herself are essentially expanding the power of the Spirit Hall, there is no difference.
Moreover, by supporting himself, he could also use his own strength to disintegrate the Tiandou Empire more quickly, which was killing two birds with one stone.
"Replace the Tiandou Empire?"
Xue Tianxing pretended to be hesitant, frowning, "This is no small matter. I need to think about it."
Qian Renxue saw Xue Tianxing's attitude soften, a hint of satisfaction flashed in her eyes, and she said with a smile:
"Of course, you don't have to rush to reply. I'll give you time to think about it. If you've figured it out, you can always contact me through the Spirit Hall's base in Barak.
Remember, we are one family, and Spirit Hall will always be your strongest support."
Xue Tianxing nodded and said nothing more.
Qian Renxue looked at Xue Tianxing and said calmly:
"Well, I have to go back to the Spirit Hall too. We'll meet again—when you come to Spirit City to participate in the Continental Spirit Master Competition."
After she finished speaking, a faint golden light flashed around her, and her figure seemed to melt into the air and disappeared from the top of the mountain in an instant, leaving only the sound of the whistling wind.
Xue Tianxing stood there, looking in the direction where Qian Renxue disappeared, as if thinking about something.
See you in Wuhun City, you talk as if you really want to go back to Wuhun City.
"It seems that old fellows like Qian Daoliu don't want to exterminate me. In fact, they seem to be happy that there is another person with a six-winged angel spirit on the continent. It means that the angels have gained another inheritance."
Xue Tianxing sighed softly, thought no more, turned around and walked towards Soto City.
Now he just wanted to find Shui Bing'er and Dugu Yan as soon as possible to see how their fighting spirits were progressing.
But just as he entered Soto City and walked onto a busy street, a familiar voice suddenly came from the side:
"Cousin, I didn't expect to see you here!"
Xue Tianxing looked in the direction of the voice and saw "Xue Qinghe" standing at the door of a restaurant with a surprised smile on his face, walking towards him quickly.
"I thought you took your men back to Barak City after the sparring match, but I didn't expect you to stay in Soto City."
Without waiting for Xue Tianxing to respond, Xue Qinghe enthusiastically grabbed his arm and said with a smile:
"Since it's such a coincidence, I must come in and sit down. Let's have a good chat."
After saying that, he pulled Xue Tianxing into the restaurant's private room without saying anything.
Xue Tianxing was pulled by Xue Qinghe, and secretly sighed in his heart:
I had just seen Qian Renxue's true face on the mountain top outside the city, and now I was warmly welcomed by "Xue Qinghe" played by her. With such a speed of changing faces and such acting skills, it is true that every woman is a natural master of face-changing and acting.
At this moment, Qian Renxue felt helpless.
After bidding farewell to Xue Tianxing on the mountain top, she returned to Soto City as quickly as possible, found a secluded place, changed into Xue Qinghe's clothes again, and resumed the appearance of the gentle and elegant prince of the Tiandou Empire.
Originally, she planned to leave the restaurant first, return to the residence of the Tiandou team, and take the team members back to Tiandou City. However, as soon as she walked out of the restaurant door, she ran into Xue Tianxing coming towards her.
Qian Renxue originally wanted to pretend not to see it and leave directly - after all, they had just met on the top of the mountain in their real identities, and now she was greeting him as "Xue Qinghe", which seemed a bit deliberate.
But for some reason, the moment she saw Xue Tianxing, she couldn't help but call out to him. In Qian Renxue's opinion, Xue Tianxing was the only young spirit master of this generation whose talent could rival hers.
Not only does he possess the six-winged angel spirit, he also has a powerful second spirit, the Ice Phoenix, and his strength is unfathomable.
Since they met unexpectedly, they might as well use the identity of "Xue Qinghe" to learn more about Xue Tianxing's personality and thoughts and prepare for subsequent plans. Although Xue Tianxing's information had been investigated long ago, Qian Renxue still wanted to talk more and get to know him face to face.
Inside the private room, Xue Qinghe warmly invited Xue Tianxing to sit down and called out to the waiter:
"Bring out some good wine and your signature dishes!"
Then, he turned to Xue Tianxing and asked with a smile:
"Cousin, your Barak Academy is truly impressive for defeating our Tiandou Royal Spirit Master Academy this time. Especially you, you were able to easily defeat Tianheng and the others without even using your spirit. Such strength is truly admirable."
Xue Tianxing understood that Qian Renxue was testing the bottom line of his strength.
He smiled and said casually:
"Your Highness, I'm too kind. I was just lucky. The members of Tiandou Academy are also very strong, but they just didn't perform well this time."
A hint of surprise flashed in Xue Qinghe's eyes. He obviously didn't expect Xue Tianxing to be so humble.
He originally thought that with Xue Tianxing's strength, he would be somewhat arrogant when facing the prince of the Tiandou Empire.
