Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue.

Chapter 18 Baby Embryo, Package Received

She quietly withdrew her thoughts, because she discovered that even if she penetrated the package with her spiritual power, she could not detect what the white mass of energy was. Finally, through a wisp of divine sense, she discovered that there was something resembling an infant embryo inside.

However, this embryo is very strange. It is indeed a human embryo, but it is emitting soul power fluctuations.

Based on her observation, the owners of this thing, namely the two people who were eating, were not highly skilled in cultivation. On the contrary, they were just two people whose cultivation had just reached the level of Great Soul Master.

There are only two possibilities. First, they are indeed ordinary Great Soul Masters, without even a third Soul Ring. Second, these two are Peerless Douluo with cultivation levels exceeding 98, or, in this era's terms, Limit Douluo, who have used special methods to disguise their aura as that of Great Soul Masters.

She had no doubt that the white stream of energy was a kind of soul tool.

She narrowed her eyes, recalling what she knew before: evil spirit masters existed in this world. Could it be that these two were going to deliver this baby-like thing into the hands of an evil spirit master? She had heard of and even seen fallen beings in her previous life.

She had seen a set of files in the Spirit Hall that recorded the Fallen Ones she had killed. Some of them cultivated by drinking human blood, and some even ate human babies.

At this point, she could have completely ignored those two people. After all, she wasn't the savior this time; the savior was Shrek Academy. She was just an avenger. If she could succeed in her revenge, she wouldn't mind using the hands of the fallen from grace of this era first.

Anyway, you, Tang Shenwang, have also done things like massacring the Martial Soul Branch Hall, and you also instigated Dugu Bo to poison the people of a city.

But at this moment, she hesitated. Despite her aloof nature, she couldn't abandon this baby; it was a memory and instinct ingrained in her angelic blood.

She carefully observed the two people; they seemed unaware of the immense value of her package. Then, Qian Renxue slowly enveloped them with her spiritual power, transforming their bodies into a mass of data.

Now it's 100% certain that these two people are just like deliverymen, posing no threat whatsoever.

After a while, the two men stood up and took the package upstairs.

"Shopkeeper, please settle the bill!" Qian Renxue looked up and put on her usual ordinary smile.

"Alright! Five gold soul coins for the lady!"

Thanks!

After paying the bill, Qian Renxue stood up and followed the two people upstairs. Her room was on the fourth floor, while the two people seemed to be staying on the fifth floor.

She went up to the fifth floor, looked around, and saw no one. So she wiped her face and transformed herself into the cleaning lady of the inn. After the restrictions were lifted, pretending to be someone was easy for her.

She picked up a broom and pretended to sweep the hallway, observing her surroundings. Cleaning was indeed a bit difficult for her—but she had no choice. She went to the door of the two people's room and first checked out the rooms around them.

Yes, there's definitely no one there. The only other room around theirs is the one across the hall, but it doesn't seem like they're their accomplices… because Qian Renxue noticed that the scene in that room was incredibly lavish and shockingly explicit.

She touched her face; thankfully, it wasn't too hot.

After calming herself down, she cleaned the entire corridor again and then went to the window to check her surroundings. She was now certain that nothing amiss.

After making sure everything was in order, she knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" a man's voice came from inside the house.

Qian Renxue's eyes darted around. "Hello, are you a guest who just checked in today?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"I'm a waiter at the inn. I'm here to adjust the shower in your room. The weather hasn't been very good lately, so we need to heat the water in the tank." Qian Renxue thought back to when she first checked in, and a waiter had said the same thing to her.

squeak--

The door opened, and Qian Renxue bowed slightly: "Hello, for your accommodation experience, please allow me to make some adjustments to the bathroom."

"Hmm." The man nodded and let Qian Renxue into the room.

The layout of this room was similar to that of an empty room next door, so Qian Renxue went into the bathroom and pretended to start setting up the equipment. As soon as she entered, she noticed that there were only two people in the room, and the package was placed on a cabinet.

"Hmm?" She suddenly felt a sinister gaze on her back, but no one attacked her. So, these two weren't as simple as they seemed?!

Qian Renxue was shocked. Had her luck really been drained by that bastard Tang San? She had only been resurrected for two days, and she was already encountering trouble one after another.

If these two people can truly remain undetected, then they must be at the level of a Super Douluo or even a Limit Douluo!

Was I spotted downstairs? And then they deliberately let me in?

At this moment, she no longer thought about saving the baby; she was barely able to save herself, so how could she have the mind to care about the world? However, she remained calm and continued adjusting the water tank; if all else failed, she would fix it and run away.

Just then, a hand was about to touch her back.

"Ah—!" Qian Renxue was startled, then jumped away, dodging the lewd hand.

"Hehe, does your inn... have that kind of... um, that kind of service?" The man had a filthy smile on his face, his eyes constantly sweeping over Qian Renxue—who had turned into a forty-something-year-old cleaning lady.

Qian Renxue thought to herself, "If you look at me again, I'll gouge your eyes out!" She then asked, "What kind of service?"

The man looked away, seemingly a little surprised, and said, "Are you new here?"

"Yes." Qian Renxue nodded, then wondered to herself if she had been exposed.

"I was wondering why I hadn't seen you before. I went on a business trip and came back. I thought the manager knew my tastes." The man looked a little regretful, but didn't doubt the waiter's words. "However, judging from your appearance, you probably aren't a wealthy person. How about spending the night with us? Ten gold soul coins, isn't that fair?"

Qian Renxue had already figured it out. This inn probably offered some kind of shady service package to its guests. Maybe the woman she had just witnessed was actually the original waitress of this fifth floor.

"..." Qian Renxue bit her lip. "The manager didn't tell me anything about this. He just said that no one was cleaning the fifth floor and asked me to come up and check if any guests' rooms were not cleaned properly."

"It's alright, it's alright!" The man generously expressed his understanding. "Come here, I'll show you something good."

Then he beckoned to Qian Renxue and led her to the living room with his other companion. Just as Qian Renxue was wondering what was going on, the two of them instantly unleashed their martial spirits!

"You can't escape now! You won't listen to reason, so don't blame us for getting rough!" one of them said with a sneer.

Qian Renxue's face turned pale with shock. Were these two going to resort to force if the soft approach didn't work?

Seeing Qian Renxue's expression change, the two brothers instantly became smug: "How about it? Isn't it good stuff? Judging from your appearance, you probably haven't even awakened your martial soul yet, right? A lowly person like you deserves to be trampled on by soul masters!"

Hearing this, Qian Renxue finally couldn't take it anymore. These two were not the peerless masters she had imagined at all—she had been overthinking things. They were just scum who bullied ordinary people because of their awakened martial spirits.

She had originally thought that she should just knock the two of them unconscious, since she was there to save the baby anyway. The martial souls of these two people didn't seem like the kind that evil soul masters would possess, so maybe they really were just two deliverymen.

"..." Qian Renxue's slightly shocked expression disappeared, replaced by a cold smile as she nodded.

"You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences?" she sneered.

Before one of them could react, Qian Renxue flashed in front of him and snapped his neck.

"You...you killed him?" The other person's expression was one of horror. In less than a second, their companion's neck had been snapped by this waitress! They didn't even know how she had done it!

Qian Renxue made a chop to his neck, knocking him unconscious.

Then Qian Renxue picked up the package and walked to the door.

"..." She sighed, "Never mind, keeping you around would probably only cause trouble."

She turned back, took a short knife from her storage soul tool, slit his throat, and then handed the hilt to the man whose neck had been twisted.

Then he took the package and left, gently closing the door behind him.

The more confidential something is, the more it should be sent by regular mail. The best way to keep a secret is not to put it in a safe, but to bury it among countless insignificant documents. Similarly, the weaker the Soul Master, the more effective they may be at transporting such items.

From our omniscient perspective, this might seem absurd, but it could indeed be the method chosen by that traitor from Mingde Hall to send the goods to the Star Luo Empire for auction. Level 9 Soul Masters are rare even in the Sun Moon Empire; the entire Mingde Hall, including Jing Hongchen, only has four. Leaving the empire so easily would certainly be noticed.

This serves as an explanation for the origin of the Snow Emperor embryo at the auction.
