Douluo Continent: A Thousand Miles of Cultivation

"Rongrong, I have to go now!" Chen Sha turned and left without hesitation, as if she had seen something terrifying.

Qian Shui, who was already overwhelmed with worries, completely lost it. You're afraid Ning Rongrong won't find it strange!

Naturally, Ning Rongrong, whose attention was already drawn to the silver-haired beauty carrying Xiao Wu, immediately noticed her and Qianqian beside her, and turned her attention back to, "Na'er?"

Gu Yuena, carrying Xiao Wu on her back, didn't feel anything was amiss. She smiled sweetly and waved, "Sister Rongrong, it's been a long time!"

Given Chen Sha's attitude and Gu Yuena's seemingly obedient demeanor, an extreme guess arose in Ning Rongrong's mind.

"Ning Qian, who exactly are you?" Ning Rongrong's face was as calm as still water, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

But Qian Shui could hear her heart pounding, clearly indicating that she was having a hard time calming down.

"Uh…"

Just as Qian Shui was about to answer, Gu Yuena asked in confusion, "Brother Qian Shui, why does Sister Rongrong call you Ning Qian?"

Qianshui: Oh no, Barbie Q is gone!

He was so engrossed in chatting with Chen Sha that he completely missed checking the answers with Gu Yuena, and this one slip of his tongue gave him away.

With her answer confirmed, Ning Rongrong's eyes instantly reddened. He was Qian Shui; he had the ability to transform?!

This makes many inexplicable things understandable. For example, why is Ning Huahua so unlike a woman? Why does Xue Hong have such amazing talent? Why is Qian Renxue, the young master of the Spirit Hall, a complete madman?

If all of this was a human plan, and everything was manipulated, then it all makes sense!

“Rongrong…” Qianshui tried to comfort her.

Unfortunately, he was never good at comforting people. "Stop! Who are you? Are you Xue Qinghe, Ning Huahua, or Qian Renxue?!"

On second thought, Ning Rongrong took a step back and pointed at the bewildered Qianqian, saying firmly, "No, she is Qian Renxue!"

Qian Shui, now back in his original form, grabbed Ning Rongrong's wrist, trying to soothe her, "Rongrong, calm down!"

"How can you expect me to stay calm!" Ning Rongrong's tear-streaked eyes were filled with terror.

Ning Rongrong's guess was based on evidence. Ning Fengzhi had told her about the time when they intercepted Qian Shui back then, and Xue Qinghe's behavior was already suspicious at that time.

At the time, they speculated that Xue Qinghe had used this information to gain the support of a future powerhouse.

But now that I think about it, it doesn't make sense. Xue Qinghe had no position, and even less reason to gamble on Qian Shui's life or death, success or failure.

Is it possible that the Xueqing River at that time was no longer the Xueqing River?

"It's all fake...it's all fake! You've been lying to me all along!"

The sheer volume of information almost completely shattered Ning Rongrong's original convictions, and she now began to doubt everything that was happening around her.

Ning Rongrong's loud shouts attracted almost everyone's attention. Qian Shuishui was the first to arrive, but she wasn't surprised to see Qian Shuishui.

Zhu Zhuqing, who arrived later, saw Qian Shui holding Ning Rongrong and asked anxiously, "Rongrong, what's wrong?"

Then, even Qian Qingyu ran over, "Father..."

Realizing he had said the wrong thing, he quickly covered his mouth, but this caused a huge uproar.

Ning Rongrong's eyes widened even more. Considering Xue Hong's talent, could Xue Qinghe at that time have been Qian Renxue?

Only by thinking this way can Xuehong's background be explained, which also explains why Qianrenxue insisted on taking the child.

It's nothing more than the awakening of a martial spirit!

This is the only thing that cannot be hidden!

That child just proved it himself, it's a done deal!

For a moment, the situation was so chaotic that Qian Shui didn't know how to sort it out.

"Sigh... It's a long story, come with me!" A powerful soul pressure erupted.

Reasoning with him is useless now; he has no choice but to act like a feudal patriarch.

"Shui Shui, take this kid and Na'er to settle Xiao Wu in." At this moment, Qian Shui didn't expect that her little apprentice was the most trustworthy. She then pointed to Qian Qian, "You go too, but don't cause trouble!"

"I didn't cause any trouble!" She didn't even fight back when she was beaten; she was a demon who kept her promises.

He shook his head and walked into the council hall of the former Crown Prince's residence first. "Rongrong, come with me. I'll tell you everything. If Zhuqing wants to hear it, come along too."

That's how people are; they won't listen if you try to explain, but then they change their minds if you say "take it or leave it." Without hesitation, Ning Rongrong pushed open the door and went in.

What comes into view is Qian Shui, with her back turned and holding the glazed pagoda in her hands.

“Rongrong, I don’t know who my parents are. I’m just an orphan adopted by the Spirit Hall. But one thing is certain: one of my spirits is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.”

From her origins to her upbringing, and the beginning and end of the Heavenly Battle Project, Qian Shui told everything she could, except for mentioning the fact that she was a transmigrator.

Ning Rongrong finally understood everything, but there was one thing: how should she deal with her feelings?

She loved Xue Qinghe and Qian Shui, but in the end, he used his martial spirit to tell her the undeniable truth: he was very likely her biological brother.

What's even more ridiculous is Xue Qinghe, who is actually Qian Renxue? Her other feelings actually come from a woman?

"Rongrong, that's how it is. Do you understand?"

"I don't understand!" Ning Rongrong felt like she was going crazy; this truth was too cruel for her. "Qian Shui! You and Qian Renxue are both shameless bastards!"

Faced with Ning Rongrong slamming the door and leaving, Qian Shui could only smile bitterly. Even if he was dense, he could tell what the girl was thinking.

Lovers end up as siblings, what can he do? Besides, this is all Qian Renxue's fault, why did he have to provoke her in the first place? Don't flirt if you're not going to marry her!

However, one girl remained. With a sigh, Qian Shui asked, "Zhu Qing, is there anything else you want to ask?"

She simply shook her head and did not reply.

Qianshui, who wanted to sigh again, felt that she had already sighed enough today, so she had to hold it in.

The facts are as they are. Ning Rongrong is struggling with matters of the heart, but as an observer, Zhu Zhuqing sees something else entirely.

So she asked, "Your Majesty, will we ever meet again in this lifetime?"

Qian Shui made it very clear that he had already withdrawn from the situation and had now broken through to level 100.

Five years ago, he handed over all military and political power to Ning Rongrong. He could not possibly re-enter the game. His goal was to bring his wife and children back to their true identities.

To her, this frankness felt more like a farewell.

Why should I leave? Do you think I should go?

Zhu Zhuqing, who was usually aloof, smiled. "No, but this is enough."

"Why are you acting so strangely, girl?"

Is it strange? Zhu Zhuqing seemed to think she was also quite strange. If she didn't want to see him leave, why would she ask such a question?

Chapter 321 Distorted Emotions, the Prelude to the Coup in the Heavenly Palace

Ning Rongrong liked that person, the peerless expert who walked the streets with her, and she also liked another person, the good older brother who had been by her side since childhood.

Ning Rongrong also attended their wedding banquet. The soft glow of the lights illuminated their beautiful faces, like a tender old dream on a budding flower branch.

But she eventually found out that this was the wedding banquet of her two favorite people.

Was she betrayed twice?

No, they were a perfect match from the start. No one else had a chance to interfere, and even she had nothing to say about it.

But why does her heart ache so much? It hurts so much she can't breathe! Is it because they haven't been good enough to her?

Of course not, they kept the entire Douluo Continent for themselves!

There was no love, though.

As her thoughts raced, she walked along the long street she had once walked with him, through the bustling crowds, and over the towering gates of Tiandou City, finally arriving outside the city.

She didn't know why she had come. Was it habit? Responsibility? Or escapism?

None of Songxuan and Asami's family members died; they were all relocated somewhere outside the city.

Watching from afar, Ning Rongrong finally felt relieved.

He was as powerful as ever, so powerful that he was omnipotent and could devise any plan.

Even if he acts willfully, he can erase all his mistakes and even use the entire continent as a chessboard to pave the way for himself.

With such deep affection, how can she repay it? Why?

"Why are you my brother?!"

"Dad, why is Auntie... no, why is Auntie crying?"

Ning Rongrong, who was crying wildly, suddenly turned around and saw Qian Qingyu, who was being led by the hand by her father, looking at her with a puzzled expression.

"Despicable!" Even if he wanted to persuade her, why did he bring the child along so she couldn't lash out?

'Despicable? Perhaps…' He couldn't choose his own birth.

Reuniting with relatives is always a difficult and awkward experience.

"This child is named Qian Qingyu, which means 'gentle breeze like jade.'" Qian Shui smiled as she stroked Qian Qingyu's head. "I don't have any expectations for him, nor do I have any intention of letting him inherit any family glory."

"Xiaoxue was born with hatred on her back. We had no choice in our fate at that time, so we could only accept it."

"You know what happened later. After she became Xue Qinghe, she always felt that you looked a lot like me when you were little, and she doted on you very much..."

"So you're saying I shouldn't have done it?!" Even with Qian Qingyu present, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but explode. "Then let her come and tell me herself!"

The good brother has become the good sister, so why doesn't she come herself?

But all she got in return was Qian Shui shaking her head. "Xiao Xue is breaking through to level 100 and is temporarily without consciousness. Her body is currently being dominated by another personality, as you should have noticed."

Level 100?! As expected? Even their reasons for not being able to come are so impressive! Both of them are so strong that they are beyond the reach of others, and she can't even look up to them!

But this news was good news for Qian Qingyu. "Father, is my mother really not here?"

"Yes!" Qian Shui said irritably. He couldn't expect a child to be able to read the room.

"Yay!" Qian Qingyu clenched his little fist, extremely excited, but then asked, "But Father, can I not be the emperor?"

"You little rascal, you're just like your father." Whether he became emperor or not was irrelevant to Qian Shui; he didn't want to anyway. But he deflected the question, "However, you'll have to ask your aunt; she has more power than me now."

At this moment, Qian Shui once again pushed Ning Rongrong back into the position of the supreme ruler.

"Ah? Auntie, I..."

“Okay!” Ning Rongrong agreed readily.
