Douluo V: Taking advantage of Xiao Wu's youthful innocence, I tricked her into becoming my wife

He tried to control his clone. With a thought, the clone raised its arm and clenched its fist. The movement was smooth and without any hesitation.

Then, the clone leaped out of the pavilion, performing three consecutive somersaults in mid-air before landing silently on its toes.

"It feels good," Ye Hua said, moving his wrist, and his clone followed suit.

Just as he was about to try some more practical combat techniques, he was interrupted by Tie Xiong.

A sound came from the microphone—

"My lord, something unusual has happened at the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace!"

Chapter 356 The Crown Prince is a Fake, the Undercover Agent is the Real One

"Oh?" Ye Hua tilted his head. "Where are Xue Ke and Jiang Zhu?"

"Have you mobilized the personnel I asked you to arrange?"

Tie Xiong remained calm and composed. "No, they are simply being held under house arrest in the palace by Xue Qinghe and are unable to go out."

Ye Hua nodded.

As long as the person is alright, everything else is negotiable.

He stretched his neck to look at the clone that had just been formed.

Although weaker than the main body, it is more than capable of handling most situations.

“There’s been some strange happening in the palace,” he stroked his chin, a playful smile on his face. “That’s perfect, I’ll use you to test the waters.”

With a thought, the clone took a step and walked out of the pavilion.

His steps were steady, and his breathing was normal. Unless you paid close attention, he was no different from a real person.

But as soon as his clone stepped out of the courtyard gate, he bumped into a figure rushing towards him.

He wore a dark green robe, had a poison pouch hanging from his waist, and had an aged face and an anxious expression.

It was none other than the Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo!

He was stunned when he saw Ye Hua's clone, then quickly stepped forward.

"Ye Hua! Luckily you were walking slowly, I bumped into you!"

Ye Hua's clone stopped in his tracks, feigning ignorance, and asked, "Old monster, what's the matter?"

Dugu Bo didn't beat around the bush, "I wish to invite you to the palace to help treat His Majesty!"

Seeing that the street was deserted, he lowered his voice and said, "To be honest, His Majesty does not have a cold, but has been poisoned."

"Three different types of toxins catalyze each other, slowly eroding the internal organs."

"I've been using poisons for decades, and I'm proud to say that there are few poisons in the world that I can't see through, but this one is truly troublesome!"

"We tried the method of fighting poison with poison six times, barely managing to keep him alive, but we've reached our limit!"

Ye Hua understood that the so-called cold was just a public statement to reassure people.

"Why did you think of me?" Ye Hua asked, puzzled.

“Yanyan said you’re omnipotent,” Dugu Bo replied instantly, “which is…”

"It's not working out, she still isn't pregnant."

After saying that, he handed over the medicine packet.

Clearly, [the text abruptly ends here, likely due to an incomplete sentence or a formatting error.]

Ye Hua touched his forehead with his hand.

"So you just want to hold your great-grandchild, don't you!"

"Hey!"

"You still dare!" Ye Hua's face darkened.

Great, put in more effort tonight.

Special care for Dugu Yan!

【Ding--】

[Important plot point detected, triggering a temporary mission: Expose the deception]

[Mission objective: In front of Dugu Bo, expose Qian Renxue's disguise as Xue Qinghe, preventing her from continuing.]

[Mission Reward: Qilin form (5000 years old), Treasure Compass]

[Mission Description: What? Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, is going to become the emperor?! Then if you try to seduce her, wouldn't that be a gay relationship?!]

Ye Hua's lips twitched.

No thanks!

However, the rewards are genuine.

The age limit of the Qilin has not been increased for a long time.

The treasure compass should be pretty good too.

He composed himself and nodded to Dugu Bo.

"Let's go, let's go to the palace."

Seeing that he agreed readily, Dugu Bo felt relieved and turned to lead the way.

Ye Hua controlled his clone to follow behind, his steps leisurely.

He even managed to sip his tea leisurely, his main body and his clone acting simultaneously without any burden.

The palace gates of the Heavenly Beacon Palace stood out majestically in the twilight.

As Ye Hua followed Dugu Bo to the palace gate, they encountered a group of people.

[Xue Qinghe] led the way, clad in silver-white robes, exuding a scholarly air.

Upon seeing Ye Hua, she stopped in her tracks, a look of surprise flashing in her eyes, which quickly turned into delight.

"Wah-di? What are you doing here?"

Ye Hua chuckled inwardly, but remained outwardly composed. "Brother Xue, I heard that His Majesty is unwell, so I came to visit and see if I can be of any help."

Xue Qinghe smiled warmly, "Brother Hua is very kind, but with His Majesty Poison Douluo present, Father's illness should be no problem."

"We haven't seen each other for a long time, why don't we go to the side hall, have a cup of tea, and catch up?"

As he spoke, he turned to the side and gestured for him to enter.

His posture was natural, his tone intimate—it was simply flawless.

However, Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes slightly.

"presumptuous!!!"

Dark green poisonous fog strikes!

"Master, why is this?!" [Xue Qinghe] dodged to the extreme.

"You are not the Crown Prince at all!" Poison Douluo declared firmly.

"Firstly, these guards are all unfamiliar faces. How could His Majesty not have mentioned such an important matter as mobilizing the Imperial Guard to me?"

"Secondly, the true Crown Prince is humble and filial; he would never have the leisure to drink tea while his father is on the verge of death!"

Seeing Dugu Bo's ashen face, Xue Qinghe sighed helplessly.

"Old ginger is spicier than ginger; Poison Douluo truly lives up to his reputation."

"But you didn't expect that I came prepared!"

"Uncle Snake Spear, Uncle Porcupinefish, come out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two titled Douluo appeared.

They were all level 92 titled powerhouses.

In terms of presence, he could even overpower Dugu Bo.

Dugu Bo's face was extremely ugly.

Only the Spirit Hall could mobilize two Title Douluo guards!

Damn it! It's relentless!

If he hadn't invited Ye Hua, not only would he have been unable to save Emperor Xue Ye, but he himself would have been imprisoned!

"My lord." The Serpent Spear Douluo was extremely wary of Ye Hua, glancing to the side to signal a retreat.

“It’s alright.” Xue Qinghe refused him, and seeing that she had intimidated Dugu Bo, she even smiled.

She looked at Ye Hua and said meaningfully, "Brother Hua, since we've come this far, I won't hide anything from you."

"I replaced Xue Qinghe ten years ago."

"The real Xue Qinghe was gone the year I lay down."

"Now, I have an absolute advantage in the ministers who support me, and I can easily secure my throne."

"Poison Douluo, if you are willing to remain neutral, you will still be a royal retainer of the Heavenly Dou Empire after I ascend the throne."

"In addition, there is a seven-thousand-year-old right leg soul bone, how about that?"

She flipped her wrist, and a vibrant green soul bone appeared in her palm.

The soul energy fluctuations are abundant, indicating excellent quality!

"I can give you the soul bone now, consider it a deposit."

Dugu Bo stared at the soul bone, his eyelids twitching wildly.

But in the end, he looked away and shook his head.

Xue Qinghe was not disappointed. He turned to Ye Hua and said, "Brother Hua, it has always been me who deals with you. There is no need to hold a grudge."

"After I ascend the throne, your soul system and soul tool academy will receive unprecedented support from the entire empire!"

"Funds will be allocated from the national treasury, and priority will be given to the procurement of materials. Students with outstanding academic performance may be granted titles—of course, we will all say that this is something you fought for."

"What if I disagree?" Ye Hua asked with a half-smile.

“Then there’s nothing I can do,” Xue Qinghe shook his head regretfully, “I can’t beat you, so I can only run away.”

“But if someone else were to inherit the throne, I might not be an acquaintance with such an open mind.”

"Under the emperor's fear, they investigate your accounts and block your approvals. Although the damage is not great, it is disgusting enough!"

After listening, Ye Hua's clone nodded slightly.

If the next emperor really does that, it would be truly disgusting.

But he wasn't one to be trifled with either. He could just kill him and let that disguised Long Night Alliance Soul Douluo take the stage, wouldn't that solve the problem?

Seeing that Dugu Bo still harbored doubts, Ye Hua decided to add fuel to the fire.

"You say Brother Xue was murdered ten years ago, where is the evidence?"

"Even my father-in-law, Ning Fengzhi, didn't notice?"

Seeing this, Qian Renxue shook her head helplessly.

It seems that bleeding is the only option!

Chapter 357 Qian Renxue breaks through her defenses, you are not Ye Hua!

"So be it."

She raised her hand and ran her fingertips across her face.

Ripples spread across her cheeks like water.

That gentle face that belonged to Xue Qinghe was peeled away inch by inch.

What remains is a face that could outshine the city lights.

Even the clothes are starting to change!
