Douluo: Reincarnated in Danheng, a Unique Journey of Pioneering

Chapter 56 The Crown Prince Disguised as a Man?
"you"

Qian Renxue stared at the man in front of her, momentarily stunned.

She never expected that she would meet Danheng under these circumstances.

Yes, after leaving the palace, Qian Renxue traveled by carriage throughout Tiandou City to participate in her work.

Although the ground of Tiandou City is full of cracks, fortunately none of them are particularly wide, and the carriage only needs to go around some of the larger cracks to pass normally.

As a result, at a bend, the carriage wheels got stuck in a not-so-wide crack.

When the carriage overturned, Qian Renxue could have escaped freely, but as soon as she lifted the curtain, she kicked off and crashed directly into Dan Heng.

Danheng had just seen the carriage about to tip over and was thinking of going over to help it up when suddenly someone popped out from inside and collided with him.

Despite the impact, the carriage continued to tip over. Danheng instinctively braced the carriage with one hand and protected the man with the other.

"Are you OK?"

Dan Heng pushed the carriage back with a forceful push, and at the same time released the hand that was protecting Qian Renxue.

"It's nothing, thank you for your help."

Qian Renxue quickly stepped aside. Why did she have to run into Dan Heng at a time like this?
Fortunately, he is currently appearing as Xue Qinghe, so Dan Heng cannot tell for the time being.

At this moment, Dan Heng looked at the "man" in front of him with a strange expression.

From Danheng's perspective, the man in front of him was constantly changing between the faces of a man and a woman.

"What an amazing disguise."

Dan Heng thought to himself, this is definitely not a disguise technique that an ordinary person can master. Even he was fooled at first glance.

"Sir, is there a problem?"

Qian Renxue felt uneasy under Dan Heng's strange gaze. Had she been exposed?

Impossible! This is a disguise skill bestowed upon her by the Angelic Divine Armor Soul Bone, and she is also using a special transformation technique to make her figure vastly different from her original one.

Can Dan Heng see through the double disguise?
They probably only saw through my transformation technique; they didn't see through my facial disguise or my martial soul disguise.

After all, Dan Heng is a super strong expert of at least level 97, so it's reasonable that he could see through her transformation technique.

"It's nothing, just be careful."

Dan Heng responded with a single sentence and then prepared to turn and leave.

Why would this young girl disguise herself as a boy and wear such a thick layer of disguise to walk around Tiandou City? Dan Heng was interested, but he couldn't just ask her in front of her like that.

"His Royal Highness!"

Just then, the driver who had been driving the chariot stumbled and crawled to the two men. Just as he was about to kneel down and beg for forgiveness, he felt a bone-chilling cold sweep over his entire body.

Qian Renxue was utterly speechless. Where did this terrible teammate come from? Didn't they see there were outsiders here?
"Prince?"

Upon hearing this, Danheng turned his head. A female prince disguised as a man?
What the hell? Doesn't the Heavenly Dou royal family have any other heirs? Why do they need to use a woman disguised as a man as the crown prince?

Something's not right about the aura emanating from this "Crown Prince" of the Heavenly Dou Empire.

If the coachman hadn't called out "Your Highness the Crown Prince," Dan Heng wouldn't have had a chance to observe closely what was going on with this "Crown Prince" of the Heavenly Dou Empire possessing such a sacred and luminous attribute.

Isn't the Martial Soul inherited by the Heaven Dou Royal Family a swan? These two attributes don't seem to belong to a swan, do they?

"You can find someone to drive the carriage back; I can walk the rest of the way back myself."

Qian Renxue quickly asked the coachman to leave. Although the coachman was confused, he was thankful that His Highness the Crown Prince hadn't blamed him! He should hurry and slip away!

"Are you...the Crown Prince?" After the coachman left, Dan Heng slowly turned around, his gaze fixed on Qian Renxue as if he could see right through her. However, Qian Renxue still feigned composure and said:

"Yes, I didn't reveal my identity to you before because I didn't want to waste each other's time."

"I see. Then please forgive my rudeness just now."

"You flatter me, sir. You meant well."

Dan Heng nodded and left the place thoughtfully.

"Phew, they're finally gone."

With Dan Heng gone, Qian Renxue relaxed.

Even though Dan Heng didn't release his martial spirit or display his strength during their first meeting, she still felt quite pressured. Was this the oppressive feeling of a top-tier expert?

But why didn't she feel that way when she was with that woman?

Despite the woman's obvious malice and immense strength, she never felt the same oppressive aura that Dan Heng had experienced from her.

"Let's hurry back to the Crown Prince's residence."

Qian Renxue adjusted her mindset and then quickly returned to the Crown Prince's residence.

"How interesting. The crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire is a woman, and not even a member of the Heaven Dou royal family."

After leaving, Dan Heng secretly wondered which faction this "Crown Prince" belonged to.

Currently, there are only two possibilities: the Star Luo Empire or the Spirit Hall.

However, as far as Dan Heng knew, the Star Luo Empire's royal family was ruthless and its overall strength was greater than that of the Heaven Dou Empire.

In Dan Heng's view, such methods would be rather superfluous if it were the Star Luo Empire.

But the Spirit Hall is different. Both empires are very wary of the Spirit Hall. The Star Luo Empire has never sent troops to attack the Heaven Dou Empire, probably because it is worried that if the fighting goes on, the Spirit Hall will benefit.

If this prince is a member of the Spirit Hall, then that would fit the current situation on the continent.

The Spirit Hall is powerful enough, but rashly attacking the two great empires will inevitably provoke a united resistance from other forces on the continent.

After all, given the strength of the Spirit Hall, if they don't band together and are defeated one by one, the continent will undoubtedly fall to the Spirit Hall.

Therefore, under these circumstances, the Spirit Hall secretly sent an undercover agent to replace the original crown prince, and then, once Emperor Xue Ye passed away, they could smoothly take over the Heaven Dou Empire.

With the fall of the Heaven Dou Empire, the remaining Star Luo Empire could no longer be a match for the Spirit Hall.

"It's a good plan."

After sorting everything out in his mind, Dan Heng was quite curious about who the Spirit Hall was that proposed this plan, and who this Crown Prince was.

The task of infiltrating the Heaven Dou Empire cannot be done by just anyone; this person must be someone from the Spirit Hall.

"I don't know if Dugu Bo understands it."

Dan Heng suddenly thought of Dugu Bo. Did this guy know any of the Spirit Hall's internal secrets?
Go ask him!
"Xuexing, what's wrong with you?"

Inside the palace, Emperor Xueye looked at Prince Xuexing, who was staring blankly at him, with a headache. Ever since the earthquake, this guy had become like this, looking silly.

No matter what Emperor Xueye asked, Prince Xuexing kept repeating a few words:
"Impossible, impossible, how could that be?"

"Are you sure he wasn't hit in the head?"

Emperor Xueye turned his head again, and the leader of the patrol team that had brought Xuexing immediately responded decisively:
"I'm sure! Absolutely sure!"
