Douluo: The Second Lady of the Worship Hall, decisive in killing

Watching Ye Xi gradually falling asleep, Qian Renxue did not disturb her anymore, but let down the veil beside the bed.

After doing all this, Qian Renxue also closed her eyes and soon fell asleep.

Outside the palace gate.

Ling Yuan leaned against the pillar at the door, her eyes slightly closed, but her mental power was quietly released to sense the situation around her.

On the roof of the palace, She Long and Ci Xue sat on the left and right sides respectively, quietly looking at the bright starry sky.

Suddenly, Ling Yuan, who was resting with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes and looked to the left. She Long and Cixue, who were on the roof, also looked over there.

Under their gaze, behind an ancient tree in the distance, a guard carefully poked his head out and observed the situation here.

After observing for a few seconds, the guards quietly retreated and headed towards Emperor Xue Ye’s study.

After the guards left, Ling Yuan closed her eyes again, while She Long and Cixue continued to look at the bright starry sky as if nothing had happened.

……

In the study of the palace.

Emperor Xue Ye listened to the report from the guards below, his eyebrows raised slightly, and his eyes involuntarily looked in the direction of Xue Qinghe Palace.

"You mean, Ye Xi, the leader of the Frost and Snow Pavilion, never came out again after entering Qinghe's palace."

"And Your Majesty Ling Yuan is standing at the gate of the palace to guard it?"

Emperor Xue Ye's voice was tinged with suspicion.

"That is it, Your Majesty."

"But His Majesty Ling Yuan seems to have noticed me. He glanced over as soon as I approached."

The guard reported respectfully.

"If I can't even find you, I'm not a Titled Douluo."

Emperor Xue Ye casually said the ban, then waved his hand at the guards, signaling them to retreat.

After the guards left, Emperor Xue Ye looked at the time and couldn't help muttering to himself.

"In the middle of the night, a man and a woman are alone in a room. Ling Yuan, a Titled Douluo, is guarding the door..."

"What will they do?"

"Could it be that the pigs raised in our own home have learned to dig up the cabbages raised in other people's homes?"

Thinking of this, Emperor Xue Ye thought more and more that it was possible.

After all, in the middle of the night, a man and a woman alone in a room, it is impossible for them to discuss issues of cultivation.

Anyway, Emperor Xue Ye himself did not believe this.

"However, Ye Xi seems a little young now."

Emperor Xue Ye counted with his fingers.

If he calculated correctly, Ye Xi seemed to be only fifteen years old now.

Although this age is not old, it is not very young if compared with some commoners or nobles.

After all, in this era, there are girls who get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, or even younger. It’s just that such things usually happen to civilians, or civilians with very low talent for cultivation.

For those with better talents at this age, they will naturally focus on cultivation.

All in all, Emperor Xue Ye is very happy now.

If things were really as he thought, then all the resources invested by their Tiandou Royal Family in the early stage would be returned with interest.

Emperor Xue Ye stood up from his seat, put his hands behind his back, and walked out of the study.

Whether it is what he thought, he would ask Xue Qinghe indirectly tomorrow and he would get the result. Now, he would naturally go back to the palace to rest. ...

The next day, early morning.

In the prince's palace, Ye Xi sat in front of the dressing mirror, combing her hair slowly.

Qian Renxue walked slowly behind Ye Xi, put her hands on Ye Xi's shoulders, and leaned close to Ye Xi's cheek.

"It's almost time. I'm going to pay my respects to Emperor Xue Ye first."

"You can go back to Frost and Snow Pavilion later. I will go there after I finish dealing with things here."

As Qian Renxue spoke, she reached out and touched Ye Xi's hair, which she had just combed neatly.

"Well, I know."

Ye Xi nodded slightly and continued to comb her hair.

After listening to Ye Xi's answer, Qian Renxue smiled, and a light golden light appeared on her body. She disguised herself as Xue Qinghe again, and walked straight out of the palace, ready to pay her respects to Emperor Xue Ye.

After arriving at the place where Emperor Xue Ye usually handled government affairs, Xue Qinghe walked straight in.

"My son, I have met my father."

Looking at Emperor Xue Ye sitting on the main seat, Xue Qinghe bowed and saluted with a very respectful attitude.

"Qinghe, you seem to have come a little later than usual today."

Emperor Xue Ye put down the government affairs in his hands and looked at Xue Qinghe calmly, as if he was looking for something.

"Father, I got up a little late today."

Xue Qinghe stood up and sat down on a seat nearby.

"I see."

"I heard that Xiaoxi didn't leave the palace last night. Maybe she stayed at Xueke's place."

Emperor Xue Ye asked softly, but his eyes were looking directly into Xue Qinghe's eyes, as if he wanted to see something from Xue Qinghe's eyes.

"Well, Xiaoxi stayed at my place last night, but we were discussing cultivation matters until dawn, when I lay down on a chair and rested for a while."

Xue Qinghe's eyes were somewhat evasive and he did not look into the eyes of Emperor Xue Ye.

Looking at Xue Qinghe's appearance, Emperor Xue Ye immediately judged that Xue Qinghe was lying.

Moreover, a single man and a single woman were discussing the issue of cultivation in the middle of the night. Emperor Xue Ye didn't know whether others believed it or not, but he would not believe it anyway.

Thinking about it this way, Emperor Xue Ye has already figured out what happened last night.

"Well, Xiaoxi's talent is rare in the entire continent. It's a good thing that she can practice diligently."

Emperor Xue Ye nodded slightly, his expression very serious.

"Father, you are right."

Xue Qinghe secretly glanced at Emperor Xue Ye, and after finding that there was nothing unusual about Emperor Xue Ye, he pretended to be relieved.

And all the little movements of Xue Qinghe were seen by Emperor Xue Ye.

If we say that Xue Qinghe's evasive eyes and lies to Emperor Xue Ye at the beginning only made Emperor Xue Ye 70% sure to believe in his own judgment and make a series of assumptions in his mind.

The small action now made Emperor Xue Ye 90% sure that his judgment would come true.

After all, with Xue Qinghe's character, Emperor Xue Ye believed that if there was anything, Xue Qinghe would definitely not hide it from him.

And now he is hiding things and making a series of small movements. It must be that he is not convenient to say it, or he is embarrassed to tell me. Combined with the fact that Ye Xi stayed overnight in the prince's palace, what happened last night is obvious.
