Douluo: Blade Template, Death Omen Approaching

Chapter 83 Qian Renxue's Honesty

Right now,

The afterglow of the sun spilled across the fields, draping the land in a golden veil.

A carriage exuding a strong aristocratic aura moved slowly through the golden light. Its carriage was made of precious wood and carved with exquisite patterns. Every inch of the carriage revealed luxury and nobility.

Inside the car, Xue Qinghe and Lan Yinhuang sat facing each other.

Xue Qinghe's eyes revealed a deep level of refinement. Her posture was elegant, and even though she was full of expectations, she remained calm on the surface, as if everything was under her control.

"Blue Silver, now that I am about to visit your master—Blade, I should naturally be frank with you."

Soon, Xue Qinghe's gentle and magnetic voice came through, her gaze fixed on Lan Yinhuang, revealing an undeniable sincerity.

She coughed lightly and continued:

"To be honest, I have always enjoyed making friends with heroes from all over the world, but I never make friends indiscriminately."

"Every friend I make is a choice I've made after careful consideration."

Xue Qinghe's eyes flickered slightly, as if she were recalling something, and then she slowly spoke:

"Well, there's one more thing, I know you must be curious about it too."

"That was my lapse in composure when we first met."

"Even though it was our first meeting, I stopped you and said things that made it seem like we had known each other for a long time."

Her voice carried a barely perceptible hint of apology, and a flicker of embarrassment crossed her eyes.

Xue Qinghe sighed softly, seemingly apologizing for his abruptness at the time, and at the same time, as if he had finally resolved a long-standing knot in his heart.

The atmosphere inside the carriage became subtle because of his frankness, and a hint of inquiry flashed in Blue Silver Emperor's eyes.

Soon, Xue Qinghe's brows furrowed slightly, as if she were sorting out her thoughts. Her eyes became more profound, as if she were recalling that distant past.

She took a deep breath, and the atmosphere in the carriage tensed up.

"Let me be frank and explain what happened when we first met."

Xue Qinghe's voice was very deep, but every word was carefully crafted by her!

She paused, then continued:

"Actually, this isn't the first time I've paid attention to Blade. I've already revealed my identity to you, and you know I'm a prince, so it's not surprising that I know a lot about him."

"Back when I was in the Heavenly Dou City Imperial Palace, I heard from an informant that there was an inconspicuous little place in our empire where two geniuses with innate full soul power had emerged."

"At the time, I was truly shocked."

Xue Qinghe's tone revealed an undisguised excitement, giving the impression that as a prince, she naturally bore the heavy responsibility of finding talent for the country in order to consolidate imperial power and share the burden of her father.

Of course, this was Xue Qinghe's goal, not Qian Renxue's.

"Naturally, from that time on, I began to pay attention to everything about Blade."

"But a year has passed and there are still no clues, which makes me feel quite helpless."

"Until a few days ago, I unexpectedly met you all. The surprise really caught me off guard."

A smile appeared on Xue Qinghe's face, his mind already reliving the surprise of that moment.

Her eyes were full of anticipation as she continued:

"It can be considered that my efforts over the years have not been in vain. I hope you can understand that my loss of composure was not unwarranted, but rather stemmed from my desire for talent and my expectations for the future."

Xue Qinghe's tone was sincere, seeking the other party's understanding and support.

At this moment, the Blue Silver Emperor's posture was calm and elegant. Her hands were simply placed quietly on her long legs, which were folded together. Her fingers were slender and fair, revealing an unintentional confidence.

The smile on her face was gentle and serene, like the first flower blooming in spring, making people feel warm and comfortable.

Upon hearing Xue Qinghe's statement, she, who knew Xue Qinghe's secret, first smiled knowingly, then simply said:

"Your Highness's concern for the country and its people is truly admirable."

"It is only natural to seek out capable people to serve the country. Although Lan Yin is just a lowly servant by the master's side, he can understand Your Highness's good intentions."

She gently shook her head and continued:

"I will report back to my master truthfully later, and given my master's personality, he won't care too much about these details."

"Your Highness, you don't need to worry too much."

"Moreover, we must thank His Highness the Crown Prince for sending several cartloads of treasures this time."

Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe immediately beamed with joy.

Her eyes curved into crescent shapes, and her joy was as clear and transparent as spring water.

She understood the value of the blade perfectly, after all, she had searched for it for a year without success.

On the other hand, what shocked her the most was that even her Uncle She, a titled Douluo beside her, couldn't see through the depth of the blade, which added to the mystery and weight of the blade in her heart.

"What do these treasures amount to?"

Xue Qinghe thought to herself, her eyes filled with longing.

If he could win over the infinitely promising Blade and learn his secrets, Xue Qinghe wouldn't even blink an eye, even if it meant killing two Title Douluos on the spot! He wouldn't hesitate at all!

Her resolve was as firm as steel; she was willing to pay any price for her goals.

"Not at all, not at all. You didn't hold my previous undercover investigation against me, and you were still willing to invite me here. What are a few cartloads of insignificant metal?" Xue Qinghe's words carried a hint of self-deprecation, but her eyes revealed sincere gratitude.

She waved her hand gently, as if trying to downplay the importance of the gift.

Then, her gaze suddenly became concerned, her brows furrowed slightly, and her tone revealed a hint of confusion and worry.

"But I just heard you say that you live in a small thatched hut?"

Xue Qinghe's tone was tinged with disbelief, and her eyes were full of concern.

Blue Silver Emperor nodded slightly, her expression calm, seemingly unconcerned about her living environment.

Xue Qinghe frowned, shook her head, and said firmly:

"How can this be? Now that we've become friends, how can I watch you live in such a shabby place?"

She paused, a resolute glint in her eyes, and continued:

"Blue Silver, if I offered you a mansion in Heaven Dou City, a prosperous and safe place, do you think Blade would like it and be willing to move in?"

Blue Silver Emperor pondered for a moment, a thoughtful glint in her eyes, before finally speaking slowly:

"Yes, my master has always been used to having no fixed abode, but I can pass on this kind offer for you."

After hearing this, Xue Qinghe smiled and nodded, a hint of anticipation in her eyes!

Upon hearing this, she realized one of the reasons why she couldn't find Blade. He probably liked freedom and doing whatever he wanted. Such a powerful person, appearing and disappearing without a trace, was really hard to keep.

She felt that such an invitation might not be easily accepted, but at least her feelings had been conveyed to the other party.

The atmosphere inside the carriage seemed to have become warmer and more harmonious. As they talked about the future, their relationship seemed to have taken another step closer.
