Douluo: I, the Sun God

Chapter 167: Cruel Qian Renxue
The moon was dark and the wind was strong. Dark clouds obscured the moonlight, making the entire sky extremely dim. However, the lights in the Prince's Mansion were brightly lit, but strangely, no sound came from it.

Jiang Mo and Qian Jun, dressed in black and each holding a short sword, quietly entered. It was difficult for a Titled Douluo to be discovered if he wanted to assassinate someone; only a fellow Titled Douluo could spot him. And it just so happened that there wasn't a single Titled Douluo in the Prince's Mansion at the moment, only a few Soul Douluo-level guests.

Dugu Bo had received Ning Fengzhi's invitation a long time ago and was currently teaching Dugu Yan in the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. He had also heard about Ning Fengzhi's plan, but due to the kindness of Prince Xuexing, he chose not to help either side. During this time, he was either teaching Dugu Yan in the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect or studying poisonous herbs in the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire, so he had no idea what would happen in Tiandou City.

Even Ning Fengzhi couldn't have thought of this, but Xu Yang knew Qian Renxue through the original novel, so he was vaguely mentally prepared.

Faced with the assassination attempt by the Titled Douluo, the people in the Prince's Mansion did not react at all. Often they would see a black shadow one second, and the next second their neck would be cut, and then the body would be pulled into a dark corner and hidden.

"Xue Beng, although I don't know who spread the news that Xue Qinghe is Qian Renxue of the Spirit Hall, I estimate that it is 80% true. Otherwise, your second and third brothers would not have died in such strange circumstances and the murderer has not been found. Only a Titled Douluo in the world today can do this.

The Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, one of the three top sects that has a Titled Douluo, has always supported our Tiandou Empire. The Clear Sky Sect is reclusive, and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex clan is arrogant. It is impossible for them to attack the prince of the empire, so it can only be the Spirit Hall.

I had long thought that Xue Qinghe had a connection with the Spirit Hall, but I didn't expect that Xue Qinghe had been replaced by someone from the Spirit Hall a long time ago!
Qian Renxue, a member of the Qian family, possesses a six-winged angel spirit, and with the disguise of spirit bones, she can indeed achieve a flawless appearance..."

Xue Xing said to Xue Beng with an extremely ugly expression. There was a thick book in front of him. Just from the texture of the cover, you can tell that the book is quite old. In the original book, the master could find some information about the six soul bones of the angel's divine armor. As an empire with a thousand-year heritage, they also have many books that are not made public, which record many secret things.

Among them were the six soul bones of the angel's divine armor, which gave Yun Huan a very brief description, but even this very brief description was enough.

"Then uncle, what should we do next?!" Xue Beng asked anxiously. Ever since Qian Renxue ascended the throne, he had been living in the Prince's Mansion with Xue Xing for fear of being assassinated. But now he has no soldiers and no power, and he is still facing the Spirit Hall, which makes him a little scared.

That's a Titled Douluo! He's not some random person who can be manipulated by him!

"Our most important goal now is to win over the three major sects, starting with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and Marshal Ge Long. Ever since Ning Fengzhi and Qian Renxue last spoke, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect hasn't been involved, and even Qian Renxue's ascension to the throne hasn't happened. So I suspect Ning Fengzhi has already guessed Qian Renxue's identity, and we have a good chance of winning her over to our side.

By then, we will have the capital to compete with the Spirit Hall and can verify Qian Renxue's identity. Once his identity is confirmed, we can pull him down from the throne and let you inherit the Tiandou Empire."

Xue Xing calmly explained his plan, and Xue Beng was a little excited because the plan was very feasible. As long as it succeeded, he could also sit on the throne of emperor, and then the entire Tiandou Empire would be his.

"It's a pity you don't have this opportunity!"

Just as Xue Beng was excited and imagining the future, a strong voice suddenly came from the room.

Xue Beng and Xue Xing's faces turned extremely ugly, especially Xue Beng, whose eyes were full of despair. Neither of them shouted, but looked in the direction of the sound and saw a handsome middle-aged man in black leaning against the door frame.

"A great tribute to the Spirit Hall!" Xue Xing gritted her teeth.

Ever since the last incident in Wuhun City, the six super Douluo priests of Wuhun Hall are no longer a secret. Their appearance, martial spirits, cultivation, and spirit ring configurations are all placed on the desks of the leaders of various major forces.

So Xue Xing recognized the newcomer at a glance. Qian Jun was not surprised to be recognized. He looked at Xue Xing and Xue Beng with a look of despair, then slowly stood up, the dagger in his hand flashing with a cold light.

"You can't kill me, I still..."

Seeing Qianjun was about to attack, Xuexing begged for mercy with a look of horror, but before he could finish his words, Qianjun's figure appeared behind him, and then blood spurted out from the necks of Xuexing and Xuebeng.

The two men looked in pain as they fell straight back.

Qianjun used the sword very accurately. He not only cut off Xue Xing and Xue Beng's throats, but also cut off their cervical vertebrae. Even if the two were Titled Douluo, they would not have survived.

After doing all this, Qianjun disappeared from the room in a flash without even looking back.

In just one night, Prince Xuexing, Marshal Gelong, the fourth prince Xuebeng, Princess Xue Ke, and all the dukes who openly opposed Qian Renxue were massacred.

It was not until noon of the next day that these people were discovered dead. This shows how cruel Qian Renxue was, as she did not even spare her servants.

For a moment, all the remaining nobles and officials in the empire felt insecure and dared not disobey Qian Renxue.

At the same time, they also understood that this matter was a disguised recognition of Qian Renxue's identity as a member of the Qian family of the Spirit Hall and the heir of this generation of six-winged angel spirits.

The news soon reached the ears of major forces in the world.

Ning Fengzhi and Xu Yang were also the first to get the news. Xu Yang was fine as he had been prepared for it, but Ning Fengzhi found it hard to accept.

He really didn't expect Qian Renxue to be so cruel. At least thousands of people died that night, and the original Tiandou royal family and their relatives were all slaughtered, which also made his subsequent plans go down the drain.

The conference room was eerily quiet. Dugu Bo sat in the corner with an extremely ugly expression. After all, Xue Xing had saved his life, and there was still some friendship between the two of them.

But what really made him feel uncomfortable was the death of the Tiandou royal family, and the complete death of the Tiandou Empire in name only.

No matter in which era, the ideological education of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism occupies a certain proportion in the education system, and Dugu Bo is no exception.

The same is true for Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin and others. Although they have no feelings for the Tiandou royal family, they still have certain feelings for the Tiandou Empire.

This is also the reason why the conference room is so eerily quiet at this moment. No one expected that the Tiandou Empire would end like this.
