Simultaneous Transmigration: From Douluo Continent to the Pinnacle

Lin Yao ignored Prince Xuexing's shifty gaze and the reactions of everyone present.

He simply turned his head slowly, looked at Qian Renxue standing to the side, and said softly:

"Brother Xue, this was my doing alone, and has nothing to do with anyone else."

"If Emperor Xueye were to hold me accountable, I would take full responsibility and would never implicate the academy, much less you."

Qian Renxue took a deep breath, suppressing her shock and worry, and slowly spoke:

"Xiao Yao, you..."

She wanted to say something, but didn't know where to begin.

She knew that although Lin Yao's actions were impulsive, they carried a youthful spirit and determination.

She genuinely admired this reckless courage; he truly deserved the favor she had shown to Xiao Yao.

If it were me, without this long-planned attachment, I would probably make the same choice.

However, now that she has invested a lot of sunk costs, she has become hesitant and timid in her actions, and has lost the decisiveness she had when she eliminated the second and third princes.

In fact, the existence of avalanches was a potential hazard for her, though not insignificant.

Emperor Xueye and the nobles in the court have been using avalanches to balance her power, constantly reminding her that "if you want to seize power, you can't do without the support of the nobles."

Now, Avalanche has publicly done something that damages the college's reputation and embarrasses her.

If she doesn't take action, her carefully cultivated image as a "benevolent crown prince" will collapse, leaving her in a dilemma.

Lin Yao killed Xue Beng, which conveniently eliminated this hidden danger for her and transferred all the conflicts to himself, allowing her to stay out of it.

"I will explain this to my father."

Qian Renxue finally made her decision. She looked at Lin Yao, her eyes filled with complex yet resolute emotions.

No matter what, she had to protect Lin Yao, even if it meant disrupting her plans and leaving some potential problems.

As she spoke, her gaze toward Lin Yao softened, but when her eyes swept over the palace not far away and Prince Xuexing's indignant face, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.

"Xiao Yao, you leave here first. I'll handle the rest."

Qian Renxue said softly, her tone carrying an unyielding insistence.

Lin Yao nodded, said nothing more, and turned to walk out of the dormitory area.

His steps were steady and firm, without the slightest hesitation or panic.

Although he knew that the Heavenly Dou royal family would inevitably cause a turmoil, Lin Yao didn't care.

He always acts solely on his conscience and never regrets his choices.

Prince Xuexing and the three education committee members could only stare blankly at Lin Yao's departing figure.

The former's eyes were filled with murderous intent, yet he never dared to take a single step.

The latter, however, looked worried, constantly calculating how to minimize the impact of the matter.

The three members of the teaching committee of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy were well aware that this matter was by no means over.

Ultimately, a complete solution will require personal negotiation between the royal family and Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

There is a certain probability that corresponding exchanges of interests, or even more intense confrontations, will occur.

……

"Why is she here?"

Lin Yao slowly walked away along the stone path of the academy, the night breeze blowing against his robes, bringing a touch of coolness.

Suddenly, his keen senses picked up the sound of footsteps coming from behind him, coupled with the powerful mental energy covering him.

Even without turning around, one knows who is coming.

It was Qian Renxue, who was disguised as Xue Qinghe.

He stopped and turned around, only to see Qian Renxue dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, quickly catching up with him.

The Heavenly Prince, known throughout the continent for his gentleness and benevolence, had lost his usual smile at this moment.

His eyes held a depth and sharpness beyond his years, and even his overall demeanor had become much more composed.

"Xiao Yao, please wait."

Qian Renxue's voice came, and she quickly walked to Lin Yao's side, her gaze sweeping over the guards behind her.

He raised his hand and waved, signaling them to leave.

These guards, who were extremely loyal to Qian Renxue, hesitated when they thought about Lin Yao's recent killing of Xue Beng.

Although they greatly approved of Lin Yao's swift and decisive approach to revenge, they were also afraid that Lin Yao might lose his temper and turn his knife against Xue Qinghe.

Furthermore, they also considered another reason.

Lin Yao had just killed the Fourth Prince of Xue Beng, and Xue Qinghe, who was both the eldest prince and the crown prince, was now having such a close conversation with Lin Yao.

This would definitely leave a bad impression on Emperor Xueye and the other nobles, causing them to have negative thoughts.

It's even possible that malicious rumors could spread, such as that Lin Yao was acting on the Crown Prince's orders to stage this scene and kill his own brother.

However, this was Xue Qinghe's order, and considering the relationship between the two, and the fact that there was no point in staying here, they realized that it was not a good thing for them.

Immediately, these guards, whose interests were tied to Xue Qinghe and who were extremely loyal to him, bowed respectfully and withdrew, leaving the area to the two of them.

After her guards obediently left, Qian Renxue slowly spoke, her tone revealing a candid honesty that had shed its pretense:

"Xiao Yao, there were many people around just now, so there are some things I want to say to you privately."

"Brother Xue, please speak."

Lin Yao looked at the tall and upright prince before him, whose features were outlined by the afterglow of the moonlight, making his face appear even more gentle, and responded softly.

Actually, he was also very curious about what this "silly girl" whose eyes had been sparkling with a strange light when she watched him make a move wanted to say to him.

Seeing Lin Yao listening so attentively, Qian Renxue took a deep breath, as if she had made some important decision.

She raised her head, her gaze fixed intently on Lin Yao, her eyes gleaming with idealism, and her voice carrying a barely perceptible hint of excitement:

"Xiao Yao, although we have only known each other for a short time, I can tell that you are a young talent who hates evil and is full of justice."

So, I'm sure you don't want today's events to happen again, and that requires change, drastic change.

All of this requires unity, a strong and powerful unity, to restrain those who act recklessly, and this is my ideal.

As she spoke, Qian Renxue immediately stepped forward, her tone becoming increasingly earnest, her hands clenching slightly, her eyes filled with anticipation for the future.

"The continent is now divided into three parts: Tian Dou, Xing Luo, and Wu Hun Dian. Nobles and powerful families oppress the common people, and the war and conflict have never stopped."

Countless ordinary people have been displaced, and countless children, even with the intervention of the Spirit Hall to awaken their spirits, have been severely suppressed and trapped in the mire for their entire lives.

Some even lost their chance to live because they showed their talent early on, or because they were auctioned off because they had some martial soul characteristics after their martial soul awakened.

None of this should exist in today's world, it should not exist at all. So what I want most now is to break this corrupt system and weaken the power of the nobles who monopolize resources.

To ensure that ordinary people have stable homes and enough food, to prevent them from being auctioned off as slaves and subjected to wanton cruelty and murder, and to give every child the opportunity to awaken their martial spirit and pursue their future fairly.

And as long as this fairness exists.

Even if it's just relative fairness, coupled with a strong force to restrain these slowly decaying powers.

Things like avalanches today will never happen again.

These words resonated deeply, brimming with idealistic fervor.

If it were an ordinary Soul Master, they would probably have been moved by this grand ideal and eagerly wanted to follow her.

But Lin Yao's eyes remained calm, even carrying a hint of understanding.

Looking into the light in Qian Renxue's eyes, he felt as if he were seeing his younger self from a past life.

Back then, I also harbored similar ideals, believing that I could change the world with just a surge of passion.

But after experiencing so much, he realized that governing a world is far more complex than he had imagined.

Even the sun, with its radiant light, has dark corners that it cannot reach.

Qian Renxue now possesses innate soul power at level 20. She is a soul master with extraordinary talent, but she wastes too much energy on power struggles that involve "sacrificing herself for the country".

This severely hampered his own cultivation.

From this point of view alone, Lin Yao felt that although she had good ideals, she lacked the ability to take action and her "intelligence" was not high.

In the Douluo Continent, where strength reigns supreme, one's own power is the most reliable reliance; other schemes and plots are ultimately just secondary considerations.

Rather than building castles in the air that are most likely to collapse, it's better to improve your own strength and push it to its limit; then everything will fall into place naturally.

The world will change for you, while ensuring that the world you build is not easily destroyed by others.

Of course, as mentioned before, Lin Yao did have some respect for the ideals of this successor of the Angel God.

This pure desire to change the status quo on the continent, even if somewhat naive, is far more noble than those nobles who only know how to fight for power and profit.

Qian Renxue seemed oblivious to Lin Yao's thoughts, and continued, her tone tinged with anticipation:

"To realize this ideal, the power of the Heavenly Dou Empire alone is far from enough."

This requires your strength.

With such powerful talent, reaching the Soul Emperor level at such a young age, breaking through to the Title Douluo level in the future is just a natural progression.

It's even possible to reach an even higher realm, touching upon the legendary realm of gods.

Actually, there was something else she didn't say: Xiao Yao, you can become a god, and so can I. The two of us, as gods, are enough to suppress the entire continent.

Although she thought this way, Qian Renxue was worried that if she suddenly exposed her identity, it would easily make Lin Yao uncomfortable or even disgusted.

After giving Lin Yao some time to process his words, she fixed her gaze on him and continued, her tone carrying a serious invitation:

"My status as a prince, plus your background in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

If the two of us join forces, we can integrate the power of the royal family and the soul master power of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and many things will be easily solved.

The key thing is, Xiao Yao, your strength and your wisdom are the help I need most.

I hope that in the future you will stand by my side and work with me to rewrite the destiny of the mainland and create a truly fair world.

Lin Yao remained silent for a moment. He could feel the sincerity in Qian Renxue's words and see the expectation in her eyes.

However, this matter is of great importance, involving not only his personal future but also the stance of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so he cannot easily agree to it.

Finally, he slowly spoke:

"His Highness's ideals are admirable, but this matter is of great importance, involving too many people and things, and I need time to consider it carefully."

A hint of doubt flashed in Qian Renxue's eyes. She could sense that Lin Yao was not just being perfunctory, but she couldn't guess what he was really thinking.

However, she had an inexplicable trust in Lin Yao, a trust stemming from intuition—she felt that Lin Yao wouldn't harm her.

Therefore, she didn't press further, but simply nodded slightly, her tone becoming much gentler:

"I understand that this is not something that can be decided in a short time. I'm giving you plenty of time, and whatever your final choice is, I will respect it."

She paused, then remembered the troubles with the royal family, and quickly added:

"As for the matter with Father, you don't need to worry too much. I will help you handle it."

With your master Sword Douluo protecting you, and my master providing support, as long as we handle things carefully, we can gradually calm things down.

After all, this whole thing was indeed a disaster.

"Father is getting old, and Prince Xuexing can't cause any trouble. This matter will naturally subside in time."

After saying that, Qian Renxue patted Lin Yao on the shoulder, her eyes filled with anticipation.

She immediately turned to leave, knowing she couldn't be alone with Lin Yao for too long, lest it arouse suspicion.

As Qian Renxue's figure disappeared into the night, Lin Yao's calm smile gradually faded, and a hint of seriousness appeared in his eyes.

In fact, Lin Yao sensed that when Qian Renxue spoke just now, she meant to reveal her identity to him.

Perhaps out of consideration for the positions of the Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, or perhaps out of fear that she herself could not accept it, she ultimately did not say it.

Lin Yao was still somewhat touched by Qian Renxue's unreserved trust.

After all, it would be impossible not to be moved by such trust, especially when someone is so honest with you about their ideals.

However, at the same time, he couldn't help but "criticize" Qian Renxue's personality:

This girl is too naive. If I really had ulterior motives towards her, I could easily fool her and make her count the money for me even after I've sold her out.

"Ugh!"

Lin Yao sighed softly.

Unfortunately, Qian Renxue is too weak now, and even with the background of the Angel Family, she has no power to make decisions.

Almost all of her resources and support came from her grandfather, Qian Daoliu.

The level 99 peerless Douluo would not interfere much in Bibi Dong's affairs.

As long as Bibi Dong does not infringe upon the core interests of the Angel Family, he will remain neutral.

Under these circumstances, the interests of the Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School could not be aligned at all.

Therefore, Lin Yao knew very well that what he needed to do most right now was not to think about seizing power, but to make himself stronger.

Only by possessing sufficient strength can one protect those they wish to protect amidst future turmoil and truly take control of their own destiny.

Thinking of this, Ning Fengzhi's gentle smile, Ning Rongrong's charming face, and Sword Douluo Chen Xin's upright figure...

These images flashed through his mind, further solidifying his idea.

Only those with real strength can protect all of this, instead of wasting precious time on power struggles and scheming like Qian Renxue, thus hindering their talents.

When you truly grow up, the world will change because of your will.

As for hoping that Bibi Dong was not affected by the Rakshasa God, thus causing the "Soul Hunting Operation" in the original work to disappear.

Lin Yao knew very well that this hope was too slim. Bibi Dong's personality was inherently obsessive and ruthless, coupled with the influence of the Rakshasa God's legacy.

It is an unstable factor.

Qian Daoliu's strength is unfathomable. His powerful strength as a level 99 peerless Douluo is enough to make all the Soul Masters on the continent tremble and suppress the continent.

However, this guardian of the angel family is too straightforward, even somewhat obsessive.

His attitude toward Bibi Dong has always been complex.

The entanglement between Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang in the past, and the coercion he suffered at the hands of the former pope, left him with a sense of compensation towards this "granddaughter's mother".

As long as Bibi Dong does not infringe upon the core interests of the Angel Family or hinder Qian Renxue from inheriting the Angel Godhood, he will not interfere too much with Bibi Dong's actions.

In Qian Daoliu's eyes, unifying the continent and weakening the nobility were merely stepping stones on Qian Renxue's path to godhood.

As long as her granddaughter can successfully inherit the divine position and become the new guardian of the continent, nothing else matters.

Meanwhile, Bibi Dong, who was sometimes erratic and sometimes meticulous and ruthless, gradually gained real power in the Spirit Hall.

However, she both wanted to unify the continent and establish her own order, and she also wanted to destroy the Spirit Hall, the place that brought her countless painful memories.

Given this contradictory and obsessive mindset, Bibi Dong, with her personality, would never tolerate the existence of a powerful force like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

After all, even the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, where Yu Xiaogang belonged, could not escape the fate of being destroyed by the Spirit Hall.

Instead of hoping that Bibi Dong will "wake up," it would be better to focus on improving one's own strength and preparing for a crisis.

Moreover, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's support capabilities are too powerful, posing a huge threat to any force.

This threat will not only affect Bibi Dong's plan to unify the continent, but will also hinder her ambition to destroy the Spirit Hall.

Ultimately, everything boils down to the fact that an inevitable conflict will break out between the Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School sooner or later.

In this conflict, there is no middle ground; one side will inevitably completely overwhelm the other.

Either the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School continues to stand at the top of the continent and maintain its dominant position.

Either the Spirit Hall completely subjugates all independent spirit master forces, allowing the higher-ups to completely control the continent's resources and become extremely wealthy.

Ultimately, it all comes down to ability.

Lin Yao sighed softly, his tone tinged with melancholy, but even more so with determination.

He is currently only at the Soul Emperor level. Even if he can unleash the hidden power within his body to reach a level comparable to a Title Douluo, he is already beyond the standard among his peers.

However, when facing the three truly peerless Douluo who stand at the pinnacle, these old guys with demigod-level strength, and even future god-level powerhouses, are still far from enough.

We still need to work harder.
