Shen Hanyu let out a soft sigh, then looked at Qian Renxue and said:
"What a pity. A Six-Winged Angel with innate soul power of rank twenty, yet at this age, you've only reached the mere Soul Emperor level…"
Qian Renxue silently clenched her fist, then said:
"It seems Grandfather has told you quite a lot. He actually trusts you this much…"
Shen Hanyu glanced at Qian Renxue, then said:
"This has nothing to do with your grandfather. As for how exactly I know, even if I told you, you probably wouldn't believe it…"
"Heh…"
Qian Renxue gave a light laugh, then said:
"I'm very curious why you called me out here. Is it just to talk about these irrelevant topics? This doesn't seem like your style at all…"
Shen Hanyu nodded, then said:
"When do you plan to carry out your plan to usurp the throne?"
Qian Renxue gave Shen Hanyu a surprised glance, then said:
"Why should I tell you? I can't be sure you won't leak this matter. Besides, we've only met a few times anyway…"
Shen Hanyu shrugged indifferently, then said:
"Whether you say it or not doesn't affect us. My position and stance align with Skywater Academy. If you want to protect Xue Ke, we can help, but Bibi Dong's ambition to rule, or even destroy, the entire continent won't be extinguished because of this. Skywater Academy has likely already become one of her main targets… You should know better than anyone how mad your own mother is. To tell you the truth, she is currently undergoing the Rakshasa God's trials, and she's probably completed quite a few already…"
"Or are you… planning to become our enemy?"
Qian Renxue's expression stiffened slightly, as if recalling something, but in the end she shook her head, indicating she didn't want to dwell on the topic.
Shen Hanyu let out a soft sigh, then said:
"Angels and Rakshasa have always been irreconcilable opposites of good and evil. Perhaps you still don't know the truth of what happened back then. When you have time, go back and ask your grandfather properly. To be honest, the way you and your mother are opposing each other like this, one day you'll regret it…"
Qian Renxue fell silent for a moment, then said:
"The Rakshasa God, huh…"
"And the so-called truth of back then… I'm very curious just how much you actually know. It seems like in front of you, nothing can stay hidden…"
Shen Hanyu raised an eyebrow and said:
"A lot. More than you can imagine. However, I don't have much ambition. My ambitions are limited to myself and the people or things I cherish…"
Qian Renxue looked deeply at Shen Hanyu, then slowly stood up. Gazing at the distant sunset that was about to disappear completely, her eyes held a confusion she had never shown before. But soon after, she regained her calm and composure and said softly:
"Within the next two years, the Heaven Dou Empire will definitely fall into my hands. I entrust Xue Ke to Skywater Academy's care. Spirit Hall also belongs to me. Bibi Dong can enjoy it for now, but she can never possess it forever. I don't know what happened in the past, but I don't believe I am guilty. To me, aside from unbearable memories and hatred, any real affection has mostly faded with time…"
"I don't know when I figured these things out, but in the end, as Grandfather said, our Qian family owes her. When the day comes to repay the debt, even this life of mine, I can return to her at any time…"
Shen Hanyu slowly straightened his posture, then also looked deeply at Qian Renxue before saying softly:
"I hope you can remain this clear-headed in the days to come. Life is short, but we all go through many things. Only something close to eternal time can heal everything…"
Qian Renxue gave an "mm," then quickly turned and left.
The surroundings had already grown dim, and the tavern's server had been waiting inside for quite some time. Shen Hanyu left a few gold soul coins, and in the next moment, he saw the Snow Empress standing amid a patch of light and shadow, looking like an immortal…
The two exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with mutual understanding and smiles…
…
After returning to the hotel, Qian Renxue sat motionless at the table. The sumptuous meal gradually grew cold with the passing time, but she showed no reaction.
Porcupine and Snake Spear, the two Titled Douluo, exchanged a glance before stepping forward in unison. Porcupine Douluo cautiously spoke:
"Miss, the food… has gone cold. Shall this subordinate get you a fresh portion…"
Qian Renxue suddenly snapped back to her senses, waved her hand, and said softly:
"No need. I have no appetite…"
Snake Spear Douluo also stepped forward and said:
"Miss, though I don't know what you discussed with that young man, your health is the most important. Ever since coming to the Heaven Dou Empire, you've been exhausting yourself every day, and you still carve out time to cultivate during your rest. If this continues, even an iron body won't hold up…"
Qian Renxue sighed, then raised a hand to rub her slightly aching brow and said:
"I know my own body. You don't need to worry about it…"
"Also, watch your words from now on. We have no way of knowing that guy's exact strength, but according to Spirit Hall's information and my own estimation, his power is at least above Super Douluo level, and there's even a high chance he has reached Limit Douluo level. He is absolutely not someone the three of us can afford to provoke right now…"
Snake Spear and Porcupine Douluo felt a chill down their backs. After exchanging a glance, they silently shut their mouths.
Qian Renxue glanced at the two, then said:
"How is the situation in Spirit City lately? Has Grandfather sent any messages?"
Upon hearing this, Porcupine Douluo lowered his voice and said:
"Two days ago, the Grand Worshipper sent word that the situation in Spirit City has not been good recently. He instructed Miss to avoid returning to Spirit City unless necessary. Also, the Grand Worshipper said in the message that he has already dispatched the Sixth Worshipper to protect Miss's safety. This morning, another letter arrived…"
As he spoke, Porcupine Douluo handed over an envelope sealed with golden wings.
Qian Renxue glanced at Porcupine Douluo, then opened the envelope.
After a brief read, Qian Renxue suddenly stood up. A trace of golden soul power burst forth, and the letter instantly turned to ash and scattered completely. A hint of shock appeared in her eyes as she said in a low voice:
"How is this possible? She actually dared to make a move against Grandfather, and according to Grandfather, her strength has truly reached that level. Even when Grandfather didn't use his full power, he couldn't take her down…"
The nearby Porcupine and Snake Spear Douluo exchanged glances, feeling as though they had just heard something they absolutely shouldn't have…
The Grand Worshipper had actually fought the Supreme Pontiff, and it seemed he had even used his full strength…
Good grief, the two of them were just workers. They didn't want to know too much and end up getting silenced…
Qian Renxue took a deep breath, her mind still unable to calm the swirling thoughts. Porcupine and Snake Spear did their best to minimize their presence, shrinking back to the side…
