Douluo Continent: Peerless God General, starting by deceiving Qian Renxue

Chapter 80: Because he couldn't figure it out, he gave up.

Qian Renxue returned to her room, lost in thought.

Judging from Nan Feihuang's expression and tone just now, it was clear that he was attracted to her.

In fact, she could tell that although Fei Huang and Xue Ke were engaged, it was a purely political marriage. Perhaps because of Nan Fei Huang's excellence, Xue Ke had already fallen for him, but he still only respected her and did not love her.

"Do you like me? I'm afraid you're not good enough for me yet! However, you can make use of me." Qian Renxue smiled slightly. She would eventually return to her original form. If she could take advantage of Nan Feihuang's affection for her and bring him under her control, it wouldn't be a bad idea.

When Qian Renxue's love-struck mind doesn't kick in, she always prioritizes self-interest and uses everything she can, even emotions.

Meanwhile, Nan Feihuang looked puzzled. "Strange, did Qian Renxue die so young?"

"And when we first met, the deathly aura hadn't spread. When did it start? Right, it was after she refused my father's request to join forces. Could it be that her death is related to me?"

This is the only conclusion Nan Feihuang can deduce. After all, Qian Renxue must have come to hunt soul beasts in the original story. A soul beast that is only 20,000 years old, with two titled Douluo protecting her, would not have put her in a fatal threat.

Compared to before, the only change is that there are more people on our side now, or rather, there is more of him.

Nan Feihuang was somewhat troubled. If Qian Renxue died so early, Xun Yu's strategic plans would be completely disrupted.

"Sigh, if only I had brought Wenruo along." Nan Feihuang sighed. If Xun Yu were here, whether Qian Renxue lived or died would be less important.

Because he would definitely be able to redesign the strategic plan based on whether Qian Renxue lives or dies, and then leave the decision to Nan Feihuang.

This has always been their way of getting along: Xun Yu plans, and Nan Feihuang makes the decisions.

But now that Xun Yu is not by his side, Nan Feihuang has to make his own judgment: is it really because of him that Qian Renxue is about to face mortal danger?

Then Nan Feihuang will have to respond according to the actual situation.

If there isn't much danger to his side, he might as well rely on his mother's power to save Qian Renxue; otherwise, he can only watch her die.

However, this would mean Xue Qinghe would disappear, and Xue Beng would inevitably inherit the throne.

Planning for the Heavenly Dou Empire has become somewhat troublesome.

While personally killing Avalanche isn't impossible, any action taken would inevitably leave room for oversight.

"If you don't want others to know, then don't do it in the first place"—this saying is not just a casual remark.

The crime of regicide is no small matter. Even if Nan Feihuang is not afraid, he will have no choice but to use violence to seize the Heavenly Dou Empire, which will undoubtedly cause a great deal of bloodshed.

Nan Feihuang enjoys fighting, but dislikes slaughter.

Killing nobles who disregard human life is no problem, but even if Nan Feihuang is evil, he can't bring himself to do it to kind nobles or even innocent commoners.

He always knew what kind of person he was. In his personal label, hypocrisy made up the majority, or you could say hypocrisy, he was a complete hypocrite.

But even a hypocrite is still a gentleman. In order to maintain his persona, Nan Feihuang would not harm kind nobles or innocent commoners. If possible, he would like to remain a hypocrite for the rest of his life.

A general can be killed, but not indiscriminately; this is his bottom line as a general.

This is also the biggest reason why, although he admires the power of Xiang Yu, Bai Qi, and Lü Bu, he never worships them as people. He still prefers generals like Wei Qing, the Flying General of Longcheng.

After thinking for a long time without reaching a conclusion, Nan Feihuang finally made a decision on his own.

That's... giving up!

Let things take their course. He hasn't even figured out what caused Qian Renxue's death, so even if he wanted to help, he couldn't. He can only deal with it as it comes. If he can save her, he will; if not, there's nothing he can do.

Anyway, the only thing he and Qian Renxue have now is to use each other. Don't be fooled by their usual affectionate way of calling each other "Brother Xue" and "Feihuang"; there's actually not much real feeling between them.

If Lü Lingqi were in danger, Nan Feihuang would definitely fight to the death.

The next morning, after a night's rest, everyone was full of energy and ready to set off again, as they were already very close to the Star Dou Great Forest.

At their pace, the journey would take less than half a day.

At the hotel entrance, Nan Feihuang saw Qian Renxue and the other two walking out. Not only Qian Renxue, but also the Porcupine Douluo and the Serpent Spear Douluo had dark auras on their faces.

This proves that even these two titled Douluo suffered bloodshed.

This confused Nan Feihuang even more. What exactly were they planning to do? Even titled Douluo were going to die.

Are we going to go and get a group fight with the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Ape?

Given the strength of these three, even if they couldn't win, they shouldn't be unable to escape even one of them. Or, there's another possibility: could it be related to a ferocious beast?

Within the Star Dou Great Forest, the only powerful beings who could prevent even a Title Douluo expert from escaping were the ferocious beasts.

According to the timeline, they should all be in the lower dimension at the very center of the Lake of Life right now, focusing on absorbing the power of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm to cultivate.

With the strength of the Porcupine Douluo and the Serpent Spear Douluo, they couldn't even get past the Titan Giant Ape, so how could they possibly reach the center of the Lake of Life and offend those monsters?

Nan Feihuang shook his head. If he couldn't figure it out, he would stop thinking about it for now and continue to slack off. Anyway, they weren't on the same side.

After leaving the town, the two groups arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest one after the other.

As the largest gathering place for wild soul beasts, the Star Dou Great Forest is naturally the place that soul masters most want to come to, because coming here means that they can advance to a stronger stage.

Qian Renxue and her group did not linger and went straight into the depths. After all, they were hunting for her sixth soul ring, and the hundred-year and thousand-year soul beasts in the outer area could not meet her requirements.

For her to obtain the sixth ring of the six-winged angel, the beast must be a soul beast that is over 20,000 years old and possesses sacred attributes.

Nan Feihuang and the others, on the other hand, had to first hunt for soul rings for Nan Feiling and Dian Wei, so they only wandered around the perimeter at the beginning.

Perhaps they were lucky, because they encountered a soul beast suitable for Nan Feiling within half a day of entering the forest.

Back then, Nan Feiling listened to Nan Feihuang's advice and mainly followed the route of primary control and secondary support.

The most unique aspect of Nan Feiling's Ancient Thunder Book Martial Soul is that she possesses all attributes, but each attribute is relatively weak. She can only choose one or two attributes to develop specifically, otherwise she would be too mediocre. She chose the Earth and Wind attributes, so her first two Soul Skills are the Earth attribute Rock Wall Formation and the Wind attribute Windward Formation.

Rock Wall Formation, as the name suggests, creates an indestructible rock cage and is a single-target control skill.

The Wind-Following Formation is a group support, with a tailwind blowing from behind that can accelerate the team, increasing the speed of all teammates by 20%. Although it is not as good as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, it is still quite good, after all, it is a group support, and the soul power consumption is much less than that of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

I've been notified by the editor that it will be available for purchase on Monday.

This is my first book, and I'm very happy to have it published. No matter how it turns out, it's always the hardest part to start. I will do my best to finish it, and I will never give up halfway.

As a way of thanking everyone, there will be double the update today, the day before the official release.

After it's released, I'll update it as frequently as possible.

Thank you, fellow readers.
