Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Saint Master, Twelve Talismans Chaotic the Continent

Chapter 59 The Girl's Blushing

……

"What exactly do you want?"

After some awkward small talk, Nan Feng subtly ushered Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong out, and began his time alone with Qian Renxue.

"It's been so many years since we last met, I missed you and came to see you."

Inside the room, Nan Feng looked at Qian Renxue, who had shed her disguise, with an innocent expression.

"What, you're not welcoming me?"

"What do you think?" Qian Renxue asked coldly.

"I think you're very happy," Nan Feng said.

"After all, a young girl's blush is more powerful than any sweet words."

"Look at you, your face has been flushed since just now, and you still say you're unhappy to see me?"

"..." Qian Renxue.

凸(艹皿艹)！！

I'm so angry because of you!!!

"Oh? What, you want to make a move?" Nan Feng looked at the golden light condensing in Qian Renxue's hand.

Qian Renxue sneered, "I wouldn't dare, I just want to experience the elder's superior skills."

"Really?" Nan Feng raised an eyebrow, pointing his right fingertip at Qian Renxue.

"Biu!"

A beam of light shot out from Nan Feng's fingertip. Qian Renxue instinctively activated her martial spirit to defend herself, but was hit head-on by the beam.

"..."

Qian Renxue was stunned as she watched Nan Feng's perspective suddenly shift upwards.

This thing got bigger?

No! She's shrunk!!

In a panic, Qian Renxue tried to fly away, but found that her body had become extremely uncoordinated. With a forceful push, she actually pounced on Nan Feng.

"And you said you were unhappy to see me?" Nan Feng caught the little rabbit Qian Renxue.

"Are you all this excited?"

"..."

Qian Renxue was stunned.

What kind of pose is that?!

She was actually caught by this bastard!?

Snapped!

Just as Qian Renxue was about to put up a fight, Nan Feng gently patted the rabbit's little bottom.

"Don't move, or I'll turn you into a pig."

"The ugliest and smelliest kind!"

Qian Renxue completely ignored Nan Feng's words and struggled fiercely.

Golden flames ignited on the little rabbit's body. Nan Feng's eyes twitched, and he quickly threw the rabbit, which possessed a martial spirit, away.

Qian Renxue's level is not much different from his; she can change, but she can't change for as long as Tang Yuehua did back then.

In particular, the assimilation effect of the divine attribute soul power was rapidly devouring the transformed soul power he had injected into Qian Renxue, at most...

"What did you do to me?!" A black light flashed across Qian Renxue's body as she angrily drew a longsword formed from holy fire.

Nan Feng frowned slightly. "I advise you not to be so impulsive as to point your sword at me, because the last person who did that is now overgrown with weeds."

Qian Renxue gritted her teeth, took a deep breath, and still dispersed the longsword.

We can't beat them!

All the bishops of the Martial Soul Temple in Heaven Dou City are now this bastard's men!

Making a scene like this won't do her any good!

"What exactly do you want to do?" Qian Renxue asked.

"Let's have a heart-to-heart talk." Nan Feng poured Qian Renxue a cup of tea.

"I've wanted to have a chat with you for years, but what can I do? Your grandfather was so inhuman, he had to steal my rabbit!"

"If he wants to kill my rabbit, then I can only send his bear to its eternal bliss."

Qian Renxue sat down. "Did you really kill Demon Bear Douluo?"

"You can drink the tea, but you can't say whatever you want, young lady!" Nan Feng said seriously.

"I didn't kill him. He was so ashamed of his rudeness towards me that he chose to atone with his death!"

"Everyone saw it; I simply tossed the dagger I intended to use to commit suicide into his hand. The rest, he did it all himself!"

As he spoke, Nan Feng took out the dagger that the demon bear had used to commit suicide and stuck it on the table.

"He used this dagger to commit suicide."

Qian Renxue felt a pang of panic and instinctively dodged backward to create distance.

Nan Feng looked heartbroken. "How could we two suspect each other to this extent?"

Qian Renxue's eye twitched.

I don't even know you!

"Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore." Nan Feng shook his head.

"Come, sit down, let's talk business."

Qian Renxue looked doubtful. "What important matter?"

"I said sit down." Nan Feng's eyes narrowed.

Qian Renxue's heart clenched, and in a flash, she found herself back in her seat, holding the hot tea that Nan Feng had poured for her.

"Have you realized the gap between us?" Nan Feng asked.

Qian Renxue nodded stiffly.

This guy is definitely a mind control type Soul Master!

She was completely unable to resist! She didn't even know what was happening!

"Do you know what I wanted to say to you?" Nan Feng asked.

Qian Renxue paused, "Because of what happened in the past two years?"

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

Nan Feng was forcing the people under the Heavenly Dou Empire to rebel, but her appeasement policy in conjunction with Ning Fengzhi suppressed the nascent uprisings.

Moreover, after this incident, the people under the Heaven Dou Empire reduced their offerings to the Spirit Hall, and some even stopped currying favor with the local Spirit Hall members.

They discovered that even without paying tribute to the Spirit Hall, they still lived well; in fact, they lived even better without currying favor with the Spirit Hall.

She never imagined things would turn out this way.

While these events solidified her position as crown prince, they also brought significant negative impacts to the Spirit Hall.

Rumors are circulating in many places that the Spirit Hall is demanding money, and local officials have no choice but to increase taxes.

It started as just a few rumors, but thanks to Ning Fengzhi's manipulation, most parts of the Heaven Dou Empire now regard the Spirit Hall as a wolf in sheep's clothing.

In some cities, local officials have even started to set up their own Martial Soul Awakening sites, separating the local Martial Soul Awakening matters from the Martial Soul Hall.

What's even more embarrassing is that those local officials all attributed the credit to her!

They said that if it weren't for this incident, they wouldn't have thought that they could also hold a Martial Soul Awakening Ceremony.

In any case, the Spirit Hall relies on collecting taxes from the two great empires to conduct the Spirit Awakening Ceremony, which is equivalent to outsourcing the matter. This process has generated a lot of intermediary costs and has even led to the current situation of forcibly collecting taxes.

Since the Spirit Hall is so domineering, they might as well do it themselves, which would save them a step in the process.

Awakening a martial spirit is not a troublesome matter; compared to collecting taxes, the difficulty of this matter is negligible.

Anyway, the fees for spirit awakening are collected from below. It's just that in the past, the Spirit Hall did it, but now they do it themselves. Perfect, this way, it will be more convenient to recruit new spirit masters after spirit awakening!

Now, the entire Heavenly Dou Empire is praising her as the Crown Prince!

They say she has the abilities of a wise ruler!

The problem is, she didn't do these things, nor did she want them!

She wanted to secure her position as crown prince, but she couldn't do it at the expense of the Spirit Hall!

"You didn't do it?" Nan Feng was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Yeah, how could you possibly have that kind of brain..."

If Qian Renxue had that kind of brain, she wouldn't have been sidelined by Ning Fengzhi.

He spent twenty years undercover, and all he got was the title of crown prince.

If she were truly capable, with the Crown Prince's power, it wouldn't be impossible for her to stage a coup while the Emperor was seriously ill.

"..."

Qian Renxue's face darkened.

What the hell do you mean?!

Am I stupid?!

"So, these things... were done by Ning Fengzhi?" Nan Feng said.

"Hmm." Qian Renxue nodded somewhat dejectedly.

"I don't know why he suddenly thought of doing these things."

"If it's Ning Fengzhi, then it makes sense." Nan Feng nodded.

"Looks like the lesson I taught him back then was quite useful."

Qian Renxue was taken aback. "What do you mean?"

"Indeed, this Sect Master Ning is the one who should be my like-minded friend," Nan Feng sighed.

When they first met at Qibaozhai, he boasted to Ning Fengzhi from dusk till midnight. It was a spur-of-the-moment thing, and he practically poured all the things he had said to Bibi Dong into Ning Fengzhi's head.

I was just trying it out, but I didn't expect Sect Master Ning to be so savvy!

"Like-minded?" Qian Renxue had a bad feeling.

"What do you want to do?"

"There are countless roads, and all of them lead to Rome," Nan Feng said quietly.

"A person can't put all their eggs in one basket. They have to try every tree to find the one that dies the fastest."

Qian Renxue's eyes twitched violently.

What the hell are you talking about?!
