Chapter 38 The Hanging Heart Finally Died

Good guy.

Qian Daoliu couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself.

He was still struggling with the decision, feeling that what Shi Yueyi said made a lot of sense.

Actually, he was quite surprised that a little girl could say such a thing.

Finally, he saw Qingluan Douluo retrieve the soul bone and seed of the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor.

Qian Daoliu's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died.

What else can we do?

We have no choice but to fight.

The other titled Douluo, as well as Qian Renxue, stared in disbelief at the things that Qingluan Douluo had brought back.

"Where did you dig this up from?" Qian Renxue couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, this." Qingluan Douluo looked at the people in the room with a strange expression, thinking to himself that they should just gather together and give Haotian Sect a beating.

He then described his experiences over the past few days.

When everyone heard that Qingluan Douluo had found the Blue Silver Emperor Seed in a small mountain village, in the back mountain, or in a cave, they couldn't help but show strange expressions.

Anyone with common sense knows that to cultivate flowers and plants, you generally need to place them in a place with plenty of sunshine and rain—except for some very special rare plants.

But even though Blue Silver Grass is everywhere, does that mean he should lock his wife in a dark room?

You're going a bit too far, you rat.

Just because you're a scoundrel doesn't mean you should hide your wife in the gutter too.

"Brother Xue, why don't we plant this thing in that auspicious spot we found before?" Shi Yueyi said to Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue's eyes lit up: "That's right, that place seems to be able to accelerate plant growth."

Upon hearing this, the Porcupine Douluo nodded. He also had some knowledge of medicine, so he echoed his opinion.

"Is that medicinal herb garden you mentioned taken over by Dugu Bo?" Qian Daoliu asked.

Shi Yueyi, Qian Renxue, and the Porcupine Douluo all nodded.

"Ahem—Grandpa, leave this matter to us." Qian Renxue coughed lightly and then said, "Please help us think of a way to deal with the Haotian Sect."

Qian Daoliu frowned slightly, but nodded nonetheless.

The child has grown up.

Qian Daoliu hadn't seen Qian Renxue for quite some time, and it's impossible for him to come to Heaven Dou City without some ulterior motive. However, judging from their conversation so far, Qian Renxue doesn't seem to have any intention of returning to the Spirit Hall.

That's fine too. If the Spirit Hall were to take direct action on certain matters, the reaction might be too great, and they might be accused of "bullying the weak." But if they could do it through Qian Renxue's current identity, it might be better.

For example, Dugu Bo was standing behind Prince Xuexing, and Prince Xuexing and the Crown Prince were not on good terms.

So, it wouldn't be impossible for Xue Qinghe, using his identity, to secretly have someone kill Dugu Bo.

The importance of the medicinal herb garden in the "ice and fire hot pot" (a hot pot with two separate broths) goes without saying. Moreover, Xue Qinghe's status as the Crown Prince of the Empire certainly allows him to accomplish more.

Finally, if they were to take over the Heavenly Dou Empire, then it would be truly possible to achieve a "theocratic" system.

"Also, don't neglect your cultivation. Your progress seems a bit slow," Qian Daoliu said. "Although you are indeed an outstanding one among your peers, Xiao Shiyue's current situation should serve as a wake-up call for you."

"I understand," Qian Renxue quickly replied, "However, I need some support."

"you say."

"Let's have something good to eat," Qian Renxue said after thinking for a moment.

Qian Daoliu's expression was strange, then he nodded: "No problem, I have some on me."

Then, he took out some storage bags directly from his soul tool and placed them on the table.

"You brought so many things with you on this trip?" Shi Yueyi looked over curiously.

Qian Daoliu's face twitched: "The food in the palace isn't bad, but it ultimately lacks a certain spiritual quality, that's a fact. The ingredients we brought this time were also taken into consideration in this regard."

"Leave it to me! Leave it to me!" Shi Yueyi blinked and then took the ingredients into the inner room.

"In short, leave the matters here in Tiandou City to us. Grandpa, you can keep things in check and take care of the rear," Qian Renxue said.

"Okay, Grandpa believes you." Qian Daoliu patted Qian Renxue's head.

"Little October, I'm leaving Little Snow in your care." Qian Daoliu turned around and said to the inner room, "I'll go back and prepare a strategy for attacking the Haotian Sect."

"?" Shi Yueyi paused for a moment.

"What I mean is... I'm sorry to trouble you to take care of me," Qian Daoliu said hastily.

"No problem."

After saying that, Qian Daoliu disappeared.

Wait, something seems to be missing.

Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment, then spoke up to those around her: "Grandpa, you didn't take the soul bone!"

"I don't want that thing. You can decide what to do with it," Qian Daoliu's voice softly came from inside the room. "Also, Ghost Douluo, you stay here and don't go anywhere!"

Upon hearing this, Ghost Douluo's face turned ashen, as if he had swallowed a fly.

……

After Qian Daoliu left, the other titled Douluo also took their leave, leaving Shi Yueyi and Qian Renxue in the room.

"Uh... well..." Shi Yueyi looked at Qian Renxue cautiously.

"Hmm?" Qian Renxue gave her a strange look.

"Um, I don't know anything." Shi Yueyi covered her face, then quickly slipped away and hid in a corner.

"What are you talking about?" Qian Renxue walked over speechlessly and picked her up from the corner.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

"Huh? How come I didn't notice you were a bit heavy before?" Qian Renxue exclaimed in surprise.

"You think I'm fat?" Shi Yueyi pouted.

"No." Qian Renxue carried Shi Yueyi to a chair next to her, then patted the wrinkles and dust off her clothes.

"I really don't know anything," Shi Yueyi said softly. "I don't know if you really have any connection with the Spirit Hall..."

"Alright, alright," Qian Renxue said irritably. "About two weeks ago, I actually guessed some things. You probably already know that I'm not the real Xue Qinghe."

"How did you figure that out?" Shi Yueyi asked curiously.

Her anxiety finally died.

"Didn't you slap my thigh in the Sunset Forest?" Qian Renxue facepalmed.

That's it? That's the reason?

She looked at Qian Renxue with a puzzled expression.

However, Shi Yueyi soon realized what was happening.

What Qian Renxue meant by saying this was that she didn't want to investigate her own background for the time being.

Because it's a matter of trust.

If you really wanted to know, you probably would have noticed something during some of their initial conversations. And then their tacit understanding just continued like that.

I'm saying this now so that we can have more open and honest conversations when we work together and get along in the future.

"Let's get to know each other again. My name is Qian Renxue." Qian Renxue extended her hand to Shi Yueyi. "I am the young master of the Spirit Hall."

"Yes, my name is Shi Yueyi." Shi Yueyi extended her hand and gently placed it on the other person's palm. "I'm Miss's little follower."

When Qian Renxue heard this address of "Miss," she felt a strange mix of emotions.

She had been disguised as a man for many years, and had almost forgotten her true identity from hearing the title of His Highness the Crown Prince so often.

Only when the night is deep and quiet would she stay alone in an empty room, gazing at the moon in the sky, imagining that there was someone who knew her true identity and could stay by her side.

Therefore, she didn't say much at today's "Spirit Hall Gathering". Just looking at these familiar faces and hearing these familiar voices made her feel warm.

But people are always contradictory. They want someone to see through them, but they don't want that person to lay bare their vulnerable side in a bloody way, which would only make things awkward for both of them.

So she has always been so lonely and isolated. This feeling is like poison, silently eroding her liver, spleen, and lungs.

Now, it seems that heaven has truly answered her wish.

She was the sun, and then she sent a girl who represented the moon.

The girl saw through her identity, but she didn't say anything. Even just now, she only said that she was "Miss's little follower," not "someone related to the young master of the Spirit Hall."

Therefore, Qian Renxue will not delve into Shi Yueyi's identity. When the time comes, everything will probably come to light—although that may no longer matter.

So be it.

We don't need a superficial understanding.
