Chapter 229 Taking their young guild leader as a dog? [Please subscribe! Please vote!]

Under Chen Hong's mental control, the sandalwood incense in the air condensed into a faint, holy phantom behind him amidst swirling clouds—a holy six-winged angel!

The smoky phantom behind Chen Hong, along with him, instantly magnified in the pupils of Qian Renxue, whose face was filled with astonishment. She bowed slightly to show her respect.

With just one glance, Chen Hong saw through Qian Renxue's disguise!

In an instant, Chen Hong understood what Qian Daoliu meant by "unexpected surprise"!

In truth, Qian Renxue was as blinding as looking directly at the sun in front of Chen Hong, a Soul Master with maximum perception!

In particular, Qian Renxue has an angelic aura that is exactly the same as Qian Daoliu's!

Chen Hong was able to spot Qian Daoliu at the Soto Arena immediately because Qian Daoliu was extremely conspicuous to him!

Even though Qian Daoliu had done his best to conceal his aura, in Chen Hong's eyes, there was something about Qian Daoliu that shone like the sun. Chen Hong had never known what that thing was before, but after seeing Qian Renxue, Chen Hong suddenly realized that the dazzling thing that shone like the sun seemed to be the aura that belonged only to angels!

Even someone as powerful as Qian Daoliu, who was extremely restrained in his aura, could make Chen Hong sense something was wrong. So, the impact of Qian Renxue, who was almost completely unprepared for Chen Hong and had also concealed her aura, on Chen Hong was enormous.

If Chen Hong hadn't met Qian Daoliu, he might not have recognized Qian Renxue. He would have simply assumed that the dazzling, sun-like aura emanating from her was some kind of soul bone or soul skill. However, ever since Chen Hong met Qian Daoliu, he instantly connected the sacred aura emanating from Qian Renxue with Qian Daoliu!

Then, extending this further, Chen Hong discovered that Qian Renxue's various auras were becoming more and more like Qian Daoliu's, at which point Qian Renxue's identity was exposed to Chen Hong.

The eldest prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe, is none other than the extremely mysterious true saintess of the Spirit Hall, the angel Qian Renxue!

"..." Qian Renxue stared blankly at Chen Hong, who was bowing slightly to her, and at the slowly dissipating holy six-winged angel behind him. She slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air to calm her shock before asking Chen Hong meaningfully, "Your Excellency... how did you discover that?"

Chen Hong looked up at Qian Renxue in the main seat, his eyes still showing a hint of shock as he gazed at her face, which was still stunningly beautiful despite her male disguise: "Your Highness, I have met that senior before. The aura of that senior was so dazzling in my perception that it left a deep impression on me."

Qian Renxue's eyes narrowed upon hearing this. Grandpa had met Chen Hong? When did that happen? Why didn't Grandpa tell me?

Qian Renxue was filled with questions. Qian Daoliu had written her a secret letter from an angel, but he had never mentioned that he had met Chen Hong. However, even if he had, how could he recognize her at a glance? After all, her disguise was a skill from a soul bone!

"Even if you've met that senior, how can you be so certain?" Qian Renxue glanced around before asking Chen Hong.

"Your Highness, there are only two Title Douluos within a hundred meters. One is an unknown person, and the other is the one who just led the way." Chen Hong saw Qian Renxue's concerns and so he pointed it out directly.

"You?" Qian Renxue frowned, looking at Chen Hong in disbelief. "How did you know?!"

Chen Hong slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air. Xue Qinghe and Qian Renxue had caused too much of an impact on Chen Hong, and he was only now recovering: "Your Highness, as I said, my perception is very strong."

The moment Chen Hong saw Qian Renxue, it was as if he saw the Pope of the Spirit Hall writing "My Struggle" in front of him.

Originally, Chen Hong was still speculating about the Spirit Hall's plans for the future. But after seeing Qian Renxue, it was obvious to Chen Hong that the Spirit Hall was taking an aggressive stance. In other words, once the Spirit Hall's strength was sufficient, it would begin to fight.

Qian Renxue looked at Chen Hong with a conflicted expression and asked, "Then why did you come to Tiandou City?"

Chen Hong answered truthfully, "My senior asked me to come."

Qian Renxue: "???"

Why did Grandpa never tell me about this?

"..." After a moment of contemplation, Qian Renxue opened her folding fan, held it to her forehead, and said with a gloomy expression, "Elders, be on guard, they are our own people."

Then, Qian Renxue's folding fan brushed across her cheek, revealing a stunningly beautiful face to Chen Hong, causing him to pause slightly in surprise.

Qian Renxue deactivated her disguise; there was no need. Chen Hong's honesty from the moment he saw her had already left Qian Renxue somewhat speechless. However, it was precisely because of this that Qian Renxue was able to realize that the relationship between Chen Hong and Qian Daoliu was far from over.

Then, the quick-witted Qian Renxue immediately remembered another thing Qian Daoliu had told her: the study of Soul Ring Intent.

"You're the author of the Soul Ring Triple Realm?" Qian Renxue, having regained her true appearance, looked at Chen Hong with surprise. Her real voice was incredibly beautiful, ethereal and melodious, sacred and gentle.

Chen Hong didn't say anything, but simply spread his hands towards Qian Renxue, revealing his two purple soul rings.

Qian Renxue: "."

The lurking Poison Pufferfish Douluo and Serpent Spear Douluo: "."

Qian Renxue looked at the soul ring in Chen Hong's hand and instantly believed in his identity. She also understood how much her grandfather valued this young man.

"You've interrupted my thoughts, and now I don't know what to say to you." Qian Renxue paused for a moment, then truthfully told Chen Hong.

Originally, Qian Renxue wanted to use Xue Qinghe's identity to further win over the Technology Chamber of Commerce and ensure her unshakeable position in the Tiandou Empire.

However, when Qian Renxue realized that Chen Hong seemed to have gained Qian Daoliu's high approval, she didn't know what to say to Chen Hong for a moment.

Poaching talent? Trying to recruit Chen Hong to the Heaven Dou Empire?

Hmm. Isn't this behavior strange?

Chen Hong's attitude is so obvious now, he's a staunch supporter of the "Iron Angels" party!

(Chen Hong: Uh... Actually, I used to be a supporter of the "saintly woman" faction.)

From Chen Hong's reaction to her identity upon meeting him and his subsequent surrender, Qian Renxue understood that Chen Hong had long been a member of the Spirit Hall.

Chen Hong cautiously asked, "To win over the Technology Chamber of Commerce and make their young president our lackey?"

Qian Renxue: ".???"

"Let's forget about it. Given how much importance the Spirit Hall places on the Technology Chamber of Commerce, if I dare to touch you, I'll inevitably cause a lot of trouble." Qian Renxue looked directly into Chen Hong's dark eyes and sighed.
