Qian Renxue frowned slightly, her gaze sweeping over the two clasped hands. She felt the hands holding hers were so hot, but it was just right for her, after all, she was an angel symbolizing light.
She stopped struggling, and then she heard Huo Yuhao say again:
"Sister Xue'er, you are very beautiful too. I feel comfortable just looking at you."
Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment, a feeling she couldn't quite describe welling up inside her.
What did he mean by saying that? Did he want to play with her as freely as he would with her hands?
What a lecherous scoundrel!
A surge of embarrassment and annoyance rose in Qian Renxue's heart. She immediately pulled her hand away, a hint of annoyance flickering in her golden eyes, and said, "I should go."
After saying that, he turned around and tried to leave as if he were fleeing.
Huo Yuhao looked at Qian Renxue with a smile and said softly, "You're going back to the Spirit Hall soon. We won't see each other for a long time, Sister Xue'er. Before we part, would you like to give me a hug?"
Seeing the girl stop in her tracks, a look of hesitation in her eyes, Huo Yuhao stepped forward without waiting for her reply and gently pulled her into his arms.
The girl's body was very well-proportioned and soft to hold, but he didn't do anything extra. He simply held the girl, afraid of scaring away the little angel who had just fallen into the trap.
The girl's rapid and hot breathing around his neck gradually calmed down. Huo Yuhao turned his gaze and saw that the girl's skin was as white as snow, her eyebrows and eyes were like paintings, and her exquisite face had a touch of heroism.
Her eyes were closed, as if she were savoring this moment of peace.
Huo Yuhao leaned close to the girl's ear and whispered, "Sister Xue'er, you actually really like sweets, right? I can tell."
"From now on, I'll make you some special desserts, so you can eat as many as you like. Don't worry, life from now on will let you taste the true flavor of desserts."
Qian Renxue opened her eyes, her bright eyes filled with complex emotions beneath her long eyelashes. She looked at Huo Yuhao, and memories of the past flooded her mind.
She loved desserts when she was little, and her father and grandfather seemed to like them too. Her father would even teach her how to make desserts.
After her father passed away, and the desserts she made were thrown into the trash by that woman, she lost all interest in desserts.
However, she now realizes that she doesn't seem to dislike desserts at all; on the contrary, she likes them very much. Desserts are sweet, just like her current mood.
She's found the person who makes her desserts, and she'll never throw that sentiment away like that woman did.

Chapter 342
After an unknown amount of time, the two slowly separated, holding hands as they walked out of the teahouse.
The Serpent Spear Douluo guarding outside stared wide-eyed at the sight.
Good heavens! The young lady has been taken by this boy! He must tell the Grand Master immediately that his little cabbage has been eaten by a pig!
Huo Yuhao and his companion did not see the expression on Serpent Spear Douluo's face. As if it were their first meeting, Huo Yuhao activated his simulation to conceal Qian Renxue's appearance and casually strolled around Heaven Dou City.
He could tell that Qian Renxue had completely let down her guard and disguise in front of him, just like an ordinary girl.
However, there are exceptions. Qian Renxue doesn't seem to like looking at those pretty clothes and accessories. Instead, she bought a lot of ingredients for making desserts.
It wasn't until the sun was almost setting that the girl showed a satisfied expression, and then led him to the courtyard they had visited before.
"Here, turn all of these into desserts. I'm going back to the Spirit Hall, so please prepare a lot for me, just in case!"
Qian Renxue came to the kitchen and took out all the ingredients she had bought. She looked at Huo Yuhao with a smile and said this.
Huo Yuhao looked around at the ingredients spread throughout the room, on the floor, on the table, and even in the yard, and fell silent for a moment.
He hesitated and asked, "Do all of this need to be done?"
Qian Renxue smiled and said, "These are only a part; I have more in my soul tool."
"Gu, just kill me. Sister Xue'er, we can't be partners anymore, let's be enemies from now on."
"Hurry up and do it, I can do it too, let's do it together." Qian Renxue's smile became even brighter.
"Are you sure you're okay not going back to the Crown Prince's residence?" Huo Yuhao asked tentatively.
"Don't worry, my men will take care of everything."
Huo Yuhao's lips twitched; he was not at all at ease.
However, he eventually ended up making desserts with the girl, and they stayed up all night.
The next day, looking at the rising sun on the horizon and then at Qian Renxue who was enjoying her dessert, Huo Yuhao vowed that he would get his revenge on the girl in the future and make her sit there all night!
After the desserts were finished, Qian Renxue turned her back on everyone, packed all the desserts into her soul tool, and left in a hurry without even giving a proper thank you.
Huo Yuhao also returned to Dugu Bo's residence, where he encountered Ning Rongrong, who was about to go out, at the gate.
Upon seeing Huo Yuhao, the girl's bright eyes lit up, but she quickly turned her face away and walked past him as if she hadn't seen him.
Huo Yuhao turned around helplessly and flicked the back of the girl's head.
"Rongrong, where are you going?"
Ning Rongrong rubbed her head, puffed out her cheeks, glared at him angrily, and snorted, "With so many sisters at home, why didn't you come back last night! What business is it of yours where I go?"
Huo Yuhao had to coax Ning Rongrong, who was jealous, for a while. However, the girl was bright and cheerful, and she was soon coaxed into smiling again.
"I'm going back to my sect. After my martial soul evolves, I need to tell my dad. Do you want to come with me?"
Ning Rongrong leaned against Huo Yuhao's chest, her eyes filled with expectation.
"I'm not going."
Huo Yuhao refused, but gently patted her head as he saw her off.
Ning Rongrong's return to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will bring him some wish power, but he doesn't need to go; he can just wait to reap the rewards.
After watching Ning Rongrong leave, Huo Yuhao returned to his residence. Next, he would try to collect one or two points of wish power to gather enough black-level wish power to reduce the difficulty of the solidified mission in the Dream God Realm by one level. Then he would focus on cultivation for a period of time.
Meanwhile, after returning to the Crown Prince's residence, Qian Renxue began preparations for her return to the Spirit Hall.
“Elder Porcupine, I need to return to the Spirit Hall. We will activate the backup plan. You will stay in Heaven Dou City to look after things here for the time being.”
"Young Master, has something happened?"
The Porcupine Douluo was a bit chubby, with short, spiky hair and dark, but smooth skin, as if coated with oil. He stood next to the tall and thin Serpent Spear Douluo, and the two looked quite different.
"It's nothing. I just suddenly realized that I shouldn't waste too much time here. I want to finish the plan as soon as possible, so I'm going to go back to the Spirit Hall to discuss it with my grandfather."
Qian Renxue shook her head and explained. She was in a rather pleasant mood at the moment, so she became more talkative.
"Young Master, rest assured, I will take good care of everything here. Serpent Spear, protect His Highness."
The Serpent Spear Douluo glanced at the porcupine, remaining silent.
Qian Renxue lowered her voice and said softly, "In addition, after the Soul Master Competition, our plan will be completed. Calculating the time, there is still more than a year. During this period, Elder Citun, you must control the dosage of poison given to Emperor Xueye and make sure he dies at the right time."
"Yes."
Meanwhile, at the Spirit Hall.
The magnificent Papal Palace is located in the center of Wuhun City, and it is a symbol of the authority of the Wuhun Hall.
In the center of the Papal Palace sat a woman with purplish-brown hair, dressed in a long, exquisitely fitted, shimmering gold gown adorned with over a hundred rubies, sapphires, and gold gems. Her nine-curved purple-gold crown shone even brighter, and she held a two-meter-long scepter inlaid with countless jewels.
The woman had fair skin and a near-perfect appearance. In particular, the intangible noble and sacred aura she exuded made her stand out from the crowd.
She is Bibi Dong, the Pope of the Spirit Hall, and Qian Renxue's mother.
Bibi Dong gripped the intelligence report tightly in her slender hands, her brows furrowed, and her beautiful purple eyes fixed on the report, a deep purple aura seemingly brewing within them.
The paper in her hand was a letter written to her by her beloved daughter, Qian Renxue, but the address in the letter was "sister" instead of "mother."
She understood the meaning of the title, and therefore loathed it.
She was Qian Xunji's disciple, and if things were to develop normally, it would be perfectly normal for Qian Xunji's daughter to call her "elder sister".
But Qian Renxue is her own daughter. Qian Renxue doesn't call her "Mom" but "Sister." The implication is that she rejects their mother-daughter relationship and only acknowledges her father-daughter relationship with Qian Xunji.
After a long while, she calmed down and continued to look at the information in her hand. When she saw that Huo Yuhao was able to defeat Tang Hao by relying on his Martial Soul Fusion Technique, her brows furrowed.
When she saw that there was a Limit Douluo behind Huo Yuhao, she frowned and looked thoughtful.
According to her plan, the more Limit Douluo there is on the continent, especially one whose attitude is unclear, the more variables there will be, and she must prepare early.
She continued reading, and when she saw Qian Renxue's warning in the letter, forbidding her from interfering in Huo Yuhao's affairs, Bibi Dong's face darkened, followed by a cold smile.
"You angels are truly disgusting!"

Chapter 343 The True Colors of the Little Witch Ning Rongrong
When Bibi Dong received Qian Renxue's letter, Qian Daoliu also received a letter from Qian Renxue, along with a letter from Serpent Spear Douluo.
However, for Qian Daoliu, Qian Renxue is still the most important person.
"Grandpa, this letter is as if we are meeting in person."
Inside the hall, beneath the towering statue of an angel, Qian Daoliu, with his white hair and baby-like, youthful skin, eagerly opened Qian Renxue's letter.
Unlike the letter sent to Bibi Dong, the letter Qian Renxue delivered to him conveyed much more genuine emotions. Having lived for hundreds of years, he could naturally discern Qian Renxue's admiration and slight fondness for the young man named Huo Yuhao.
The letter from Serpent Spear Douluo confirmed this. Qian Daoliu's eyes showed relief. He would eventually have to sacrifice himself for Xiao Xue'er. Before that, it was his long-cherished wish that she could find someone to accompany her on her journey.
He had actually been watching Qian Renxue's growth closely and knew about her loneliness. He had even tried to find her some playmates, but her talent and status were simply too high. People treated her with utmost respect, and she naturally didn't take them seriously.
