Douluo: Blade Template, Death Omen Approaching

Chapter 84 The Close Blade: Excitement and Madness?

Soon after,

The carriage procession slowly entered the thatched-roof area near Soto.

The afterglow of the sun shone on this peaceful village, casting a golden glow over the simple thatched houses.

Xue Qinghe nimbly jumped down from the carriage, her graceful figure making her stand out even on this country lane.

Her caravan was quite large, but in order not to disturb the tranquility of the village, she only ordered a few carriages carrying her gifts to slowly drive into the village, while the rest waited on the outskirts.

To show her sincerity, Xue Qinghe didn't even have She Long and Ci Xue, the two titled Douluo of the Spirit Hall, accompany her for protection, but simply let them rest in the carriage.

Her action undoubtedly demonstrated the importance she attached to this meeting and her respect for the blade.

Soon, the carriage stopped in front of Ren's thatched hut.

At this moment, Ren had already handed over the training task at the blacksmith shop to Zhu Zhuqing, and he himself had long sensed the arrival of Lan Yinhuang and Xue Qinghe.

He had been waiting here for some time, sitting quietly on the stone bench in the courtyard, like a statue, with his eyes closed, unmoved by the outside world.

Blade's face was expressionless, and his breathing was even and deep, as if he were one with the natural environment around him.

His presence, like this thatched hut, is simple yet resilient, exuding an unspoken tranquility and strength.

At this moment, Blade was deep in thought about a problem, his brows furrowed slightly, revealing a slight fluctuation in his heart.

The system suddenly sent a notification earlier. The notification was concise, consisting of only a few words, yet it seemed to contain endless profound meaning.

[The Way of the King, the Way of the Tyrant, and the Way of the King Again!]

After thinking it over, Ren realized that this hint might be something that would stay with him throughout his time in Douluo Continent.

After all, this is a world where martial arts reign supreme, and your fists often speak volumes about your power!

Now, disregarding the demonic body, the blade is invincible here.

Soon, Ren stopped thinking about it.

At this moment, Qian Renxue arrives. If we follow the mission prompts, we should do as we see fit.

Before long, sunlight slanted across the courtyard entrance, casting dappled patterns on the bluestone floor.

The long shadows of Lan Yinhuang and Xue Qinghe, who had already arrived at the entrance, were cast in the light and shadow.

Lan Yinhuang remained elegant, while Xue Qinghe was dressed in luxurious attire. The two stood in front of the gate, creating a beautiful scene.

At the same time, Ren's calm voice came.

"You're back"

Upon hearing this, although Blue Silver Emperor knew that her master already knew everything, she still went through the motions according to etiquette, since Xue Qinghe knew nothing.

quickly,

She turned to look at Xue Qinghe, a meaningful glint in her eyes, and then gently led Xue Qinghe to the location of the blade.

"Master, I'm back."

"We've also brought a guest with us this time."

"This is His Highness Xue Qinghe, the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire. We met at the coffee shop last time, and he paid for our coffee."

Blue Silver Emperor added, "I invited her to come along."

After speaking, her gaze swept lightly between Ren and Xue Qinghe, finally settling tenderly on her master.

Blade nodded slightly, his blood-red eyes remaining as calm and composed as ever.

Blue Silver Emperor had already used special means to transmit his experiences and observations along the way to him.

Prior to this, Blue Silver Emperor had naturally consulted with Blade and obtained his consent before bringing Xue Qinghe here.

In Blade's eyes, although tasks can be completed one by one, doing them simultaneously is not only more efficient, but also allows for better utilization of resources.

He hadn't planned to have much contact with Xue Qinghe before, partly because the system hadn't given any relevant hints yet, and partly because Xue Qinghe's identity was special and required careful handling.

But now, with new hints, everything will be different.

At this moment, Xue Qinghe was led to the blade.

When she examined Ren's face closely again, she was once again stunned into silence!

Her gaze seemed to be drawn in by some mysterious force, unable to look away.

I didn't look closely when I first saw it, and my memory of it is a bit hazy.

But at this moment,

Under the soft sunlight, Ren's face appeared even more three-dimensional and profound, every inch of his skin seemingly meticulously sculpted, perfectly flawless.

Xue Qinghe's eyes momentarily glazed over, a hint of intoxication flashing across them. She realized that even someone of her status who had seen it all, when she saw him again, she couldn't get enough of looking at him, and even felt a growing excitement the more she looked.

Will this lead to being influenced by one's surroundings?

Are those who are close to the blade sexually aroused and insane?

In her mind, an absurd thought even crossed her mind: if all this effort was spent only to find that Ren didn't actually have any particularly useful abilities, then even keeping him by her side, just looking at his face would be a pleasure.

Soon after, Lan Yinhuang coughed lightly twice, his voice tinged with helplessness. He was clearly used to Xue Qinghe's reaction. She, Zhu Zhuqing, and now Qian Renxue.

It wasn't until this soft cough rang out that Xue Qinghe snapped out of her daze, her cheeks flushing slightly as she realized she had lost her composure.

She quickly composed herself and, to cover up her lapse in composure, gracefully performed a gesture of respect. Despite being a prince, she showed no airs in front of Ren, instead appearing humble and polite.

Xue Qinghe's movements were fluid and natural, and her eyes were filled with respect, even a certain degree of admiration.

At this moment, her identity and status seemed irrelevant; she was simply a "woman" who deeply admired Ren's appearance and abilities.

Moreover, after Lan Yinhuang finished speaking, Xue Qinghe immediately followed up with her own words. Her voice was gentle yet powerful, revealing an undeniable sincerity.

She smiled, her eyes revealing the noble air unique to royalty, yet she remained approachable.

"As Lan Yin said, I am indeed Xue Qinghe, the eldest prince of the Heaven Dou Empire. However, the title of Your Highness is too formal and I really do not deserve it. In front of me, there is no need to be so formal. Just call me Xue Qinghe."

Xue Qinghe's words carried a hint of self-deprecation, as if he felt somewhat embarrassed by his sudden visit.

She lowered her head slightly, then raised her gaze again, looking directly at the blade with anticipation and respect in her eyes.

"I have long heard of Blade's reputation. I came here without prior notice, which is truly a great disturbance. I hope Blade will not mind."

As Xue Qinghe spoke, he gently waved his hand, signaling the attendants behind him to present the gifts they had brought.

A hint of pride flashed in her eyes. Although she said the gifts were not expensive, her expression clearly showed that they had been carefully selected.

"To express my apology, I brought some gifts. They're not expensive, but I think you'll like them."

Xue Qinghe's words carried a hint of anticipation; she hoped that these gifts would win Ren's favor.

She paused, as if remembering something, and then said, "Moreover, these were prepared according to Blue Silver's requirements, and I hope they will be helpful to your forging."

Having learned a great deal about Blade from Blue Silver Emperor, Xue Qinghe spoke with great concern. She believed that she had not only considered Blade's feelings but also taken Blade's needs very seriously.

Upon hearing this, Ren's gaze merely swept over Xue Qinghe indifferently, without revealing any emotion.

He nodded, his tone calm and indifferent, showing no surprise at Xue Qinghe's self-introduction.

"Xue Qinghe?"

"hehe."

"Sit down."

"What's wrong?"

"Just say it."

"There's no need to go through all that trouble."

Blade's words are always concise and direct, without any unnecessary embellishment.

Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe's lips curled into a pleasant smile. Her eyes were filled with satisfaction and joy, and she became bolder and stared more directly at the blade opposite her.

At this moment, in her eyes, Ren must be a smart person. She lowered herself to come here, so Ren naturally wouldn't really think that she was just here for sightseeing.

"Haha, Blade, I love your straightforward and honest personality!"

Xue Qinghe said with a smile, her attitude natural and generous, without the slightest affectation.

She sat down opposite Blade naturally, and at the same time, took out another exquisite treasure box from her soul tool. This was yet another small gift she had prepared for Blade!

No Soul Master would refuse a Soul Bone!

However, Xue Qinghe knew in her heart that Ren was a smart person. Although Ren said not to beat around the bush, she knew that she still couldn't appear too eager.

At this time, the more obvious the purpose, the more likely it is to backfire.

Therefore, although her movements were natural, a hint of caution unconsciously flickered in her eyes. She knew how to subtly express her intentions while maintaining politeness!
