Chapter 5 Sunset Forest

A few days later, Shi Yueyi and Qian Renxue, the disguised Crown Prince, left Ice City.

She barely left the house during these past few days, spending most of her time recuperating in her room.

His Highness the Crown Prince often went out to reassure the people of the city, assuring them that the royal family would find a way to locate the murderer.

Shi Yueyi has also come to her senses in the past few days and understands who she needs to seek revenge on in the future.

That's the father of the future God King Tang.

Because his wife was forced to death by the Spirit Hall, he spent this time searching for remote Spirit Hall locations to vandalize.

If Tang Dachui's revenge was only directed at the Spirit Hall, then there's really nothing to say. It's his business that he married a spirit beast, and it's normal for the Spirit Hall to have their eyes on his spirit beast wife.

However, he became somewhat ruthless when it came to revenge, grabbing a big hammer and smashing things without caring whether there were any ordinary people around or in the Spirit Hall.

That would truly be pushing oneself into a fire pit.

Speaking of which, Shi Yueyi thought the former Pope of the Spirit Hall was a bit stupid. Why did he have to take action himself to kill a 100,000-year-old spirit beast?

You need to plan things out when you do them.

For example, if you spread the news and let other forces infiltrate, wouldn't that be great? Do you think Qibao and Landian will be able to sit still then?

Then the Spirit Hall will take advantage of the chaos and finally seize the opportunity to take down the enemy with lightning speed. They will not only weaken the three upper sects that they are not on good terms with, but also get their hands on the spirit bone. Tang San might not even have been born safely. Everyone in the Spirit Hall will have a bright future.

"What are you thinking about?"

Qian Renxue and Shi Yueyi were sitting together in a carriage. The Crown Prince saw that the little girl was in a daze, so he asked her curiously.

"Hmm, it's nothing serious." Shi Yueyi came back to her senses, smiled, and said, "I was just wondering what kind of place Tiandou City would be."

Qian Renxue lifted the curtain of the carriage, and sunlight shone on her profile. Although she was "borrowing" Xue Qinghe's identity at this moment, her face was still unconsciously illuminated by the sunlight, making her look pleasing to the eye from the side.

It's hard to imagine how breathtaking it would be if Qian Renxue were to show her true face right now.

It was clearly just a relatively expensive carriage, but because Qian Renxue was sitting inside, it became like a small palace.

Shi Yueyi propped her face up with her hand, sitting quietly inside the carriage with a faint smile on her face.

"After traveling for several days, we're almost near Heaven Dou City. I plan to hunt for a first spirit ring for you on the outskirts of Heaven Dou City, just like we agreed before."

Qian Renxue lowered the curtain and sat back down.

"Sunset Forest?" Shi Yueyi thought for a moment, then asked.

"That's right, this should be considered a suitable soul beast forest for hunting souls within the Heaven Dou Empire. The Heaven Dou royal family once thought of enclosing it for their own use, but they haven't succeeded in all these years." Qian Renxue nodded and then introduced the forest.

"Later, it seems that there was a master in this forest, who was a guest of the Heaven Dou royal family, the Poison Douluo." Qian Renxue still had a warm smile on her face.

"Yes, I've heard of this place too."

Ten thousand years later, Shi Yueyi also went to the Heavenly Soul Empire to carry out a mission, and even infiltrated the Heavenly Dou City at that time, so she naturally knew about this forest.

She remembered that after entering the Sunset Forest, she could clearly feel a huge "magic circle" enveloping the interior of the Sunset Forest.

She went to investigate and discovered that it was a poisonous array composed of a highly poisonous plant called "Azure Phosphorous Seven Absolute Flowers". Even a Title Douluo would find it difficult to enter unless they possessed a certain level of immunity to toxins, such as some extreme attributes.

Speaking of which, the young master Qian Renxue in front of us should be considered to have the ultimate attributes, right?

The Angelic Martial Soul is a true, inherited, god-level Martial Soul. The Three Kings of the Far North, who possess the ultimate ice, are said to all have the bloodline of the Ice God.

Shi Yueyi closed her eyes.

Haha, how could I have thought of something like "what if Qian Renxue still exists ten thousand years from now"?

Meaningless.

Seeing that Shi Yueyi had closed her eyes, as if she were meditating, Qian Renxue did not disturb her, assuming that she was thinking about the choice of soul rings.

That evening, their carriage entered the forest, and the coachman respectfully lifted the curtain of the carriage, inviting the two to get out.

Shi Yueyi and Qian Renxue entered the forest. Shi Yueyi asked curiously, "Brother Xue, what level of cultivation have you reached this year?"

Qian Renxue casually said, "The Soul King is nothing to worry about."

This is Xue Qinghe's cultivation level on the surface, not Qian Renxue's.

Qian Renxue is now about to become a Soul Saint.

The reason for keeping Xue Qinghe's identity as a Soul King is to avoid being too conspicuous. Xue Qinghe is only in his early twenties this year; if he were too old, the outside world wouldn't say that Qin Ming is the second youngest Soul Emperor in the world a few years later.

"That's really impressive," Shi Yueyi said with a smile.

"Ahem—" Qian Renxue coughed, a little embarrassed, "It's not that impressive."

Just then, a figure appeared beside the two of them; it was none other than the Porcupine Douluo.

However, the moment he appeared, Shi Yueyi's smiling expression instantly changed, as if she had heard an alarm bell ringing. She pulled Qian Renxue close, and although she didn't have a single spirit ring at the moment, she instinctively shielded her behind her.

Her right hand instantly grabbed a few vines that were wrapped around the bushes.

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

Qian Renxue was stunned.

Even the Porcupine Douluo was stunned.

The Porcupine Douluo chuckled, "Your Highness, your little follower is quite something."

Shi Yueyi frowned, then looked at the Porcupine Douluo, and then at Qian Renxue: "Brother Xue, do you know this senior?"

Qian Renxue smiled and patted her shoulder: "Yes, thank you. This senior is one of my guards. He's the one who left you the medicine earlier."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yueyi's lips twitched, then she looked at the person in front of her suspiciously, hesitated for a moment, and finally let go of her hand.

Okay, okay, is this how you play it?

You're going to scare people to death, huh? Fine, fine.

"Oh, it's you." She suppressed the urge to go crazy because the soup was so bitter that it made her want to gag.

Although... well, it really is very useful. I felt much more comfortable all over after drinking it.

"It's nothing, not worth mentioning." The Porcupine Douluo waved his hand casually. "I am one of Her Highness's secret guards, and she has never revealed my existence to outsiders."

"I don't know anything. I just remembered that an unknown senior helped me when I came to the Soul Hunting event," Shi Yueyi said expressionlessly. "Can I think of it that way?"

Qian Renxue smiled and squeezed the slender left hand that was currently holding her right arm.

She was starting to believe what Shi Yueyi said; these were indeed hands with the skills to kill.

"Alright, that's too polite. Uncle Bloodthirst is not only my bodyguard, but also... a senior."

"It's just that he can't show his face freely for some reasons. The reason I didn't mention him to you before was because I was worried about being overheard," Qian Renxue explained. "There's no one else in this forest, so it's naturally safe."

"Didn't you say that the master of this forest is that Poison Douluo?" Shi Yueyi asked after thinking for a moment.

"That old guy," the Porcupine Douluo said dismissively, "is currently in Heaven Dou City taking care of his granddaughter and won't be back anytime soon."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yueyi finally released Qian Renxue.
