Douluo Continent: I can nurture soul beasts and even perform super evolution.

Chapter 196 Qian Renxue, you really look like your father...

Xue Qinghe, Crown Prince of the Heavenly Dou Empire.

With the current second and third princes both dead, and the fourth prince being an unbelievable wastrel, this Crown Prince is naturally the favorite to seize the throne. As soon as he appeared, many princes, ministers, and sect elders flocked to him, saying flattering things.

Xue Qinghe responded politely to each of them.

The master and apprentice walked inside.

in the hall.

At the head of the table, the Heavenly Emperor was talking to a young man in a cheerful tone, and the smile on the old emperor's face never disappeared.

Xue Qinghe and Ning Fengzhi stepped forward.

"His Majesty is still in very good health," Ning Fengzhi said with a smile.

"Father." Xue Qinghe didn't waste any words, his eyes filled with concern.

Su Wen turned his gaze towards him.

She secretly clicked her tongue in amazement. No wonder he had been the number one undercover agent in the Heavenly Dou Empire for twenty years, keeping even the old fox beside her in the dark. She glanced at "Xue Qinghe" with a smile, but did not say anything more.

Qian Renxue's Angelic Martial Soul, along with her innate personality flaws (lack of fatherly love and a mother who is mentally unstable), makes it relatively easy for her to enter her heart. It is a sharp and powerful blade, but it is also a double-edged sword. If not used properly, it can backfire on her.

"Hehe, I am naturally fine. This is Mr. Su Lin, who has been making headlines in Tiandou City recently. This is Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the richest sect in the world. This is my son, the current Crown Prince of the Empire," the Emperor of Tiandou introduced with a smile.

"Greetings, Mr. Su," Xue Qinghe said, bowing slightly.

Her heart was filled with a turbulent storm. Even though she was already a Soul Emperor, she was completely exposed under the young man's indifferent glance. It was as if a heavy mountain was pressing down on her shoulders, making it hard to breathe.

"Not bad, kid, you're interesting..." Bone Douluo exclaimed in surprise.

"Uncle Bone!" Ning Fengzhi quickly apologized.

"If you have time, why not have a little sparring?" Chen Xin also sensed the pressure emanating from Su Wen and felt strange. He slowly spoke up.

"..."

For a moment, the entire hall fell silent.

This was the heart of the banquet, where the most distinguished figures of the Heaven Dou Empire gathered, naturally attracting a great deal of attention. The fact that two renowned Title Douluos, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, had extended an invitation to spar with him speaks volumes about Su Wen's strength.

As the saying goes, experts see the details, while laymen just watch the spectacle.

However, they could not see through Su Wen's strength, but they could judge whether Su Wen was just a showy figure or a real powerful figure at the title level by observing the reactions of the strong.

For a moment, many forces looked at Su Wen with burning eyes. "Official confirmation" could not possibly be false.

Seeing the reaction of his two titled masters, even Ning Fengzhi became interested, but alas, the Heaven Dou Empire had already beaten him to it...

The Emperor of Tiandou was overjoyed.

The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves immensely at the banquet.

Su Wen sat there smiling, and even the Silver Bishop Salas came forward to offer her a toast.

I also caught a glimpse of Tang Yuehua, the owner of Yuexuan, an extremely elegant mature woman and the most beautiful socialite in the Tiandou Empire.

Ended.

Outside the imperial city of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Xue Qinghe's carriage was ready early, while the gentle and refined Crown Prince chatted with Ning Fengzhi at the door.

"Sir, it would be best if we could take it down. Although you lack nothing now, you should also understand the principle that even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit. The hope of turning the tide in an avalanche is slim, but it is not impossible."

"Yes, teacher, I understand..." Xue Qinghe said respectfully.

"Alright, you wait here. There are still some matters within the sect that I need to attend to. I'll take my leave first." Xue Qinghe watched Ning Fengzhi's carriage depart until it disappeared from sight, a hint of melancholy flashing in his eyes.

He spent over twenty years undercover, devoting his entire youth to it.

From a young age, she was sent by her mother to infiltrate the country. At that time, in order to please her mother, she did her best to handle the responsibilities on the shoulders of the fourteen-year-old Xue Qinghe meticulously. Until now... the entire Tiandou Empire has been managed to become an ironclad entity.

The Spirit Hall wanted to take over the Heaven Dou Empire as easily as it was in their pocket.

It was just waiting for the old emperor to pass away.

But recently, unexpected changes have occurred. The one who could make even a top expert like Chen Xin want to spar with him is having a pleasant conversation with the Emperor. It is even said that Xue Beng, that kid who has been pretending to be stupid all year, has developed inappropriate thoughts...

Qianrenxue's heart was in turmoil.

A powerhouse of this caliber can turn the tide of battle at crucial moments.

"Miss, should I go and find out more about this person?" A coachman beside Qian Renxue lowered his hat brim and spoke in a deep voice.

“No, he is very strong. Before you entered the palace, I had already faced him once. Just one look from him was enough to freeze me in place and I couldn’t move…” Qian Renxue shook her head, her lips did not move, but her voice came out softly.

"If we can invite him to ride in the carriage when he comes out, we can find out more about him before making further plans."

"Yes!" The coachman nodded, turned his head away without saying anything more, and closed his eyes to rest.

"gentlemen……"

Qian Renxue suddenly heard a commotion coming from the entrance of the imperial city. Looking up, she saw the young man walking out, accompanied by a group of enthusiastic people.

He quickly stepped forward.

"Mr. Su, as ordered by the Emperor, you must not be neglected. Therefore, Qinghe has already prepared a carriage to take you back to the Royal Academy..."

"Okay."

Su Wen smiled and said that Xue Qinghe personally pulled open the curtain and stepped into the carriage.

The interior space is very large and the decorations are luxurious. The carriage is also very shock-absorbing, making it feel like walking on flat ground.

Xue Qinghe sat opposite Su Wen and personally poured him tea.

Meticulous, with impeccable manners and posture.

"It seems you've put in a lot of effort in the Heavenly Battle over the years..." Su Wen said with a smile.

"..."

Xue Qinghe's previously practiced movements suddenly froze, his lowered eyes trembled violently, and he even unconsciously spilled tea outside. But after pretending for twenty years, his mental fortitude had reached a level that was difficult for ordinary people to achieve.

He quickly wiped away the water stains, then shook his head with a smile: "Sir, you seem to recognize Qinghe? When you were young? I did spend some time at my maternal grandfather's estate when I was eight years old."

“Qian Renxue, there are still faint traces of your father Qian Xunji in your eyes and brows…” Su Wen smiled as he picked up his tea, gazing at “Xue Qinghe” with a touch of emotion on his face.

"Click~"

Qian Renxue could no longer maintain her smile. The handle of the teapot in her hand was crushed by her fair palm. Ever since those three words appeared, she knew that all her previous pretense had been seen through by this mysterious young man.

Her current appearance is naturally unrelated to her biological father, but clearly, this person has even seen what she looked like before she disguised herself...

She couldn't keep up the act any longer.

A coded signal came from outside the door: they had arrived outside Tiandou City, in the deep mountains some distance from the Tiandou Empire Royal Academy. Should they make a move?

Should we take action?
