Qian Renxue quickly composed herself and then turned her gaze to the snake spear and the porcupine.
Her tone was extremely sincere, not at all like that of a young master, but rather like that of a junior, as she asked the two men, "Uncle Snake Spear, Uncle Porcupine, you may know something about what happened. However, I understand that you most likely won't tell me."
Qian Renxue cleverly employed a strategy of retreating to advance.
Snake Spear patted his chest forcefully and said, "Xiaoxue, tell us what happened! We'll tell you everything without reservation!"
The porcupine was about to speak up and try to stop the spear from making such a bold statement, but the spear was too quick to speak, and the words had already slipped out.
A sly smile inadvertently appeared on Qian Renxue's face, but it vanished in an instant.
She began, "Uncle Serpent Spear, can you tell me why Bibi Dong has always disliked me so much? I am clearly the product of her and my father's love, so why does she sometimes look at me with a hint of hatred in her eyes?"
Serpent Spear was stunned. He thought to himself, "Oh no, I've spoken too soon."
Meanwhile, the pufferfish was also sweating profusely, feeling drenched in sweat. He was filled with doubt; why was the young master suddenly bringing this up again?
The sudden loud crying was actually because of this?
A bad feeling crept into his heart. He tentatively asked, "Xiaoxue, was the reason you were crying just now because of this? What exactly do you know?"
By this time, Qian Renxue's emotions had calmed down considerably, so even though there were still turmoil in her heart, she was able to control herself well.
Perhaps her two uncles know some of the inside story of what happened back then. As long as she can get a vague answer, she can determine whether what Dai Yichen said is true.
After all, the current soul power levels of Serpent Spear and Porcupine are only level 91 or 92. Before she was born, they might not have become Title Douluos yet, or they might have just stepped into the Title Douluo realm.
But back then, while they were in the Spirit Hall, they inevitably heard some rumors. After all, the affair between Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang had taken place right under everyone's noses, so they must have known something.
Qian Renxue simply nodded slightly and said, "Hmm, I understand a little. Bibi Dong, Yu Xiaogang, my father forced me." Qian Renxue only said these few words, but immediately the expressions of Snake Spear and Porcupine changed drastically.
They even nervously looked around, and only breathed a sigh of relief when they found no one else had heard them. Then they realized that they had all set up a protective barrier around the area; how could anyone else have heard them?
This isn't the Spirit Hall, so they were genuinely quite panicked.
Snake Spear wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, a wry smile on his face: "Xiaoxue, who told you this? You mustn't take it seriously."
Snake Spear tried to explain, but Qian Renxue interrupted him: "Uncle Snake Spear, you just said that whatever I ask you, you will answer me as long as you know the answer." As Qian Renxue spoke, her eyes became a little moist again.
Seeing this, Snake Spear shut his mouth, his heart filled with heartache. The Qian Renxue of today was no longer the high and mighty young master of the Spirit Hall, but merely a girl yearning to know the truth.
The pufferfish glared at the spearman, scolding him for speaking too quickly.
Then, the porcupine looked at Qian Renxue and sighed helplessly: "Xiaoxue, we only know a little about the whole story. The people who know the most are your grandfathers and His Holiness the Pope."
"And based on what we know, this could be a very heavy blow to you. Neither of us wants you to, but judging from your expression just now, you clearly already know most of the truth, right?"
Immediately, Serpent Spear and Porcupine looked at each other, took a deep breath, and stopped worrying about the consequences of speaking out.
After all, Qian Renxue probably already knows most of the information. Even if the Grand Elder does know, he probably won't punish them too harshly, right? The main thing is, seeing Qian Renxue like this, the two of them are genuinely heartbroken.
When had the once aloof and glamorous young master ever suffered such an emotional breakdown? Although they couldn't understand why Qian Renxue would cry so suddenly.
Then, Snake Spear and Porcupine slowly recounted what they knew.
They recounted Yu Xiaogang's entry into the Spirit Hall and his ambiguous relationship with Bibi Dong, and also subtly mentioned that her birth was supposedly the result of coercion by the former Pope.
As for what happened after that, there's no need to talk about it, because Qian Renxue had already been born by then.
Snake Spear and Porcupine were completely unaware that Qian Xunji's death was caused by Bibi Dong rather than Tang Hao.
The incident happened in a very secretive and sudden manner, and given their positions in the Spirit Hall, they were not qualified to know about it.
The original text can be found at 6#9@book/bar!
Therefore, this point was not included in what Qian Renxue confessed. This is actually a good thing for Qian Renxue now.
If she were to learn that her father was killed by her biological mother, Bibi Dong, her emotions would definitely collapse again, and even more violently than before.
This is a blood feud for killing her father, but the one who killed her father was her own biological mother. How should she choose?
After learning the truth from her two uncles, Snake Spear and Porcupine, Qian Renxue did not feel relieved as she had imagined. Instead, she felt as if a heavy stone was lodged in her chest, making it hard to breathe.
Perhaps she still harbored some illusions, hoping that Dai Yichen's diary entries were all lies, but reality undoubtedly dealt her a heavy blow.
Seeing Qian Renxue's somewhat dejected expression, Snake Spear and Porcupine didn't know how to comfort her. With Qian Renxue's intelligence, perhaps she had realized the cruel truth that even if she completed the infiltration mission, her mother would not think highly of her, which was why she broke down in tears.
After all, they knew better than Qian Daoliu, her biological grandfather, what Qian Renxue had done over the years. Therefore, they could better understand what it felt like to be betrayed by someone close to you—an unbearable, tearing pain.
The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the determination in each other's eyes, and said in unison, "Xiaoxue, if you don't want to do this mission, then we won't! We've been out here for so many years anyway, that's enough training. Back in the Hall of Worship, your grandfathers will protect you!"
