Chapter 42 Qian Renxue's Vigilance (Please read on...please add to your favorites...please vote...please recommend...)
High above the nameless valley.

The Arctic Phoenix glided gracefully, its wings stirring up a cold current that left faint ice marks in the clouds.

Xue Qinglan held Ling Han in her arms as if she were hugging a small pillow, her icy blue eyes scanning the surroundings warily.

Ling Han closed his eyes and leaned against Xue Qinglan's chest, seemingly resting, but his mind sank into the depths of his consciousness.

Almost the instant his mind sank in, that cold yet familiar mechanical notification sound resounded throughout his consciousness:

"Ding!"

"Congratulations, host, on completing the faction mission: Initial Test of Strength!"

"Mission Evaluation: Perfect (Target's soul bone was removed without damage, the target person was not dead but completely crippled, and no members of the faction were injured)."

"Task Rewards Distributed:"

"1. Increase in influence and reputation (minor): The host's faction has initially come into the view of the top forces on the continent, arousing the vigilance and curiosity of some forces."

"2. Summoning Points x 2000: Current total Summoning Points: 2000."

"3. 1-year-old soul bone with specified attributes (selectable part): It has been stored in the system space. The host can materialize it at any time and select the attributes and part."

As the cold notification tone faded, Ling Han's Ice and Fire Heterochromatic Eyes opened in his sea of ​​consciousness, completely unmoved.

The increase in power and prestige was expected, but Tang Hao's dethronement and the loss of Ah Yin's soul bone would inevitably cause a huge uproar.

Summoning points are an important strategic resource; 2000 points represent a significant summoning opportunity.

His mind was focused on the last reward.

"System, view the 100,000-year-old soul bone with specified attributes."

hum.

In the space of consciousness, a phantom of a soul bone, radiating a soft halo and whose form was not yet fixed, appeared. It seemed to be composed of the purest energy, with seven-colored rays flowing inside, containing a vast and boundless source of soul power, yet it waited patiently for its master to shape it.

"Please select the soul bone attribute (such as: strength, speed, spirit, defense, elemental affinity [ice/fire/lightning, etc.], life, space, etc.) and body part (skull, torso bone, left/right arm bone, left/right leg bone)."

Ling Han's gaze lingered on the seven-colored soul bone origin for a moment, but he did not make a choice immediately.

This soul bone is extremely valuable. If used properly, it can greatly enhance the strength of core members and may even become a key trump card.

He needs to carefully consider how to use it in the most appropriate way to deal with more complex situations in the future.

"Save temporarily." With a thought, Ling Han caused the seven-colored soul bone phantom to disappear into the depths of the system space.

Exiting his sea of ​​consciousness, Ling Han slowly opened his Ice and Fire Heteromorphic Eyes, and the scene of the real world reappeared before his eyes.

He felt Xue Qinglan's concerned gaze, and also sensed the still-present sense of awe from Wang Qiu'er, Long Chen, and Yingyue behind him.

That was not only a shock to the Ice Prison Dragon Emperor Martial Soul and the blue-gold soul ring he had just displayed, but also a profound understanding of his ruthless methods of turning his hand to make clouds and rain, effortlessly crippling the former Haotian Douluo and seizing his supreme treasure.

"Young Master?" Xue Qinglan's cool voice carried a hint of inquiry. She sensed the subtle change in Ling Han's aura.

"It's nothing." Ling Han said calmly, resting his head on her cool yet comfortable shoulder and neck again. He turned his gaze to the gradually emerging outline of Tian Dou City in the distance, and a barely perceptible cold smile appeared on his lips. "It's just... some people are starting to get restless."

Deep within the eyes of ice and fire, a grander chessboard is reflected.

Destroying Tang Hao and seizing Ah Yin's soul bone were only the first steps in severing Tang San's destiny.

With its power newly established and its edge already showing, every step from now on will require even more meticulous planning.

The 100,000-year-old soul bone lying in the system space, with its attributes that can be specified, will become a key strategic piece in his hands.

...In the depths of the imperial palace of the Heavenly Dou Empire. The Crown Prince's bedroom.

The night was deep, and the palace lanterns emitted a soft yet somewhat lonely light.

Xue Qinghe did not go to bed, but instead sat quietly on the soft couch by the window, dressed in simple and elegant clothes.

He unconsciously stroked a secret letter he had just received from the highest level of the Spirit Hall, his brows furrowed and his eyes deep, as if trying to pierce through the layers of palace walls and see the truth shrouded in mist.

A few days ago, in the core area of ​​Sunset Forest, in the direction of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, three terrifying auras erupted without warning, like three giant stones thrown into a calm lake, stirring up huge waves among the top forces in Tiandou City and even the entire continent!

The three auras were all as deep and vast as the ocean, clearly at the level of a Super Douluo!
And it is definitely not any of the known individuals!
One was icy cold, another was scorching hot, and the last was incomparably sharp yet elusive and unpredictable!

Three auras intertwined and rose, briefly but clearly announcing the arrival of three peerless experts!

This sudden change caused Qian Renxue, who had been sitting calmly and meticulously planning for many years, to feel intense unease and pressure.

Three Super Douluo are enough to break the existing balance of power on the continent!

Who are they?

To which faction does it belong?

What is the purpose?

Friend or foe?

He immediately used the channels he had hidden deep within the Spirit Hall, writing directly to his grandfather, Qian Daoliu, the Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall.

However, the reply he received only made his heart heavier.

The letter contained only a few concise yet solemn lines: "The aura is unknown; it does not belong to the Spirit Hall."

"Their intentions are unclear, and their strength is unpredictable; we must be extremely vigilant."

"Do not act rashly for now, and observe the situation."

Even the Spirit Hall's intelligence network couldn't find a single clue!
Grandpa's tone was also filled with unprecedented solemnity!
These three Super Douluo appeared out of thin air, bringing with them power capable of overturning the existing order, and descended near the heart of the Heaven Dou Empire!
“Sunset Forest…” Xue Qinghe murmured to himself, his fingertips unconsciously tracing lines on the letter.

"Is it Dugu Bo? No... that old poisoner has no such power or companions... does that place hold some great secret?"

His thoughts raced as he tried to connect this sudden change with the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire, the Seven Great Sects, and even overseas forces, but he could not find a reasonable explanation.

This feeling of being out of control made Qian Renxue, who was used to strategizing, feel a deep sense of unease and... a subtle, almost imperceptible sense of apprehension.

"Young Master." A deep and respectful voice rang out from the shadows in the hall.

The figure of Serpent Spear Douluo She Long appeared like a ghost. His face was also solemn and worried, and his gaze towards Xue Qinghe was full of concern. "It's late, you should rest."

"Those three... are no small matter, but they are worried and stressed, so they need to take care of their health."

Xue Qinghe sighed softly, placed the secret letter in his hand on the small table beside him, and rubbed his temples with his fingertips, his exhaustion barely concealed.

"Uncle She, I know."

"But... those are three Super Douluo." Their appearance near Heaven Dou City at this crucial moment... "This is no coincidence."

"They are like a sword hanging overhead, and you never know when it will fall or where it will strike."

"Grandpa is also completely clueless... This feeling is very bad."
