Douluo Continent: Tonight, a Fairy Tale Descends

Qian Renxue's reaction was consistent with the impression Xue Qinghe had given people in the past.

Ning Fengzhi would find it strange if he agreed at this moment.

He had long anticipated Xue Qinghe's strong reaction.

Ning Fengzhi sighed and looked at Qian Renxue with worry.

"Qinghe! Calm down, sit down!"

After Qian Renxue managed to suppress her excitement and sat down again, Ning Fengzhi spoke earnestly once more.

"Face? Qinghe, remember this. Before supreme power, before the life and death of the empire, personal face, even temporary humiliation, can be abandoned. Throughout history, how many great rulers have endured humiliation and suffered countless pains? Compared to them, what is this?"

Ning Fengzhi stared intently at Xue Qinghe.

"Besides, this doesn't mean you have to actually do something immoral. It's just a matter of feigning friendship with Eva, a temporary expedient."

"It's about letting you exploit her weaknesses, get close to her, understand her, and even control her. As long as you have the country and the future imperial ambitions in your heart, a little bit of playing along is just a means to an end."

"As long as we can eventually win her over to our side, or at least stop her from being a threat to the Crown Prince, then everything we're doing now will be worth it."

History only remembers the achievements of the victors!

Ning Fengzhi's words were full of enticement for Xue Qinghe and his ruthless political nature.

In Ning Fengzhi's view, Xue Qinghe's attempt to seduce Eva was not a humiliation.

A stunningly beautiful woman at the height of her beauty, countless men in Tiandou City desire to win her favor.

Now, Xue Qinghe has this opportunity. He can not only get intimate with this beauty, but also gain great benefits through her.

Ning Fengzhi continued, "Lady Eva's charm is indeed irresistible. To be able to kiss her would be an irresistible temptation and enjoyment for any man. Qinghe, you are a man too, you should understand that."

There was an indescribable meaning in Ning Fengzhi's tone, as if he himself was also longing for Eva.

Ning Fengzhi's last words, "You are a man too," pierced Qian Renxue's heart.

She felt a strong sense of nausea and anger that almost broke through her facade.

But reason prevailed in the end, and she lowered her head, her shoulders trembling slightly.

In Ning Fengzhi's view, Xue Qinghe is currently undergoing a fierce internal struggle.

But only Qian Renxue knew that at this moment, she harbored a cold killing intent towards Ning Fengzhi.

After a long time, so long that the air seemed to freeze, she slowly raised her head.

A trace of struggle and humiliation still lingered on Qian Renxue's face, but deep in her eyes was a heavy and resolute expression of being persuaded.

"What the teacher said makes perfect sense; it's just that Qinghe is too fixated on the details."

She paused, then continued, "For the sake of the nation and the stability of the country, Qinghe is willing to sacrifice for the country."

Qian Renxue's current state perfectly matched the impression he left on Ning Fengzhi when he was disguised as Xue Qinghe, so Ning Fengzhi did not feel anything unusual.

A look of satisfaction and approval appeared in his eyes, and then he patted the crown prince's shoulder heavily.

"Good! Qinghe! Your ability to be so understanding and tolerant is a blessing to the empire. This matter needs careful consideration to ensure that it is handled flawlessly and without leaving a trace."

"I will arrange everything for you and create opportunities. Remember, your goal is to gain her trust, find out her background, and influence her decisions when necessary! Not to become obsessed with her."

"I understand," Qian Renxue replied respectfully.

Ning Fengzhi and Qian Renxue stopped talking and skipped the topic. After chatting for a while, Qian Renxue left the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

After leaving the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Qian Renxue returned to her residence.

Although Qian Renxue is currently impersonating Xue Qinghe, who is in her teens, she herself is only 10 years old.

She is the most outstanding descendant of the six-winged angel clan, with innate full soul power of level 20. Logically speaking, she should be cultivating diligently in Wuhun City, striving to take the divine test as soon as possible.

However, Qian Renxue has two different parents; her father, Qian Xunji, and her mother, Bibi Dong, have a very poor relationship.

This also led to Bibi Dong's extremely poor attitude towards her, in order to make Bibi Dong look at her with new respect.

She then proposed to her grandfather, Qian Daoliu, that she go undercover in the Tiandou Empire.

Qian Daoliu's first reaction upon hearing Qian Renxue's plan was to refuse, after all, a genius with 20 innate soul power should not waste his mind on such trivial matters.

However, after Qian Renxue's request and promise not to neglect her cultivation, Qian Daoliu agreed to Qian Renxue's plan.

And now, Qian Renxue has been impersonating Xue Qinghe for some time now.

Although she can perfectly disguise herself as a teenage boy, she is still a girl at heart.

Qian Renxue was now at a loss as to how to seduce a woman.

Chapter 24 Eva and Cinderella

Deep within the palace, in a dimly lit sleeping chamber.

The magic mirror floated in front of Eva, clearly reflecting everything that happened in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's study.

"Pfft..."

Watching Ning Fengzhi and Xue Qinghe's conversation, Eva first couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle, which then grew louder and more unrestrained until it turned into an uncontrollable maniacal laugh.

"Hahahaha! Seduction, let the Crown Prince seduce me."

"Hahahaha! Ning Fengzhi, Ning Fengzhi, I really overestimated you. For the sake of power, you actually came up with such a despicable... yet brilliant idea. It's really too interesting."

Eva laughed so hard she almost cried.

She reached out and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, her face revealing undisguised interest.

Eva refocused her gaze on the magic mirror, looking at Xue Qinghe with his head down, and her red lips curved into a bewitching and playful smile.

"Sacrifice for the country? Endure humiliation and hardship?"

She gave a soft hum, the last syllable of her voice trembling alluringly, "Tsk, what a fine script, Your Highness~"

Eva's eyes sparkled with excitement.

She had initially found Tian Dou's daily life somewhat boring and was preparing to find some fun to brighten her day.

But before he even started looking for fun, fun came looking for him first.

"Interesting, very interesting. This is a million times more interesting than a simple 'handsome man' tactic."

She looked at Xue Qinghe's handsome profile in the mirror, her finger lightly touching her red lips, her smile like a blooming poppy, dangerous yet alluring.

"Since your good teacher has brought this handsome man to my doorstep, how could I possibly refuse such a kind offer?"

Eva stretched lazily, her tone carrying a languid anticipation.

"Come on, let me see how our Crown Prince, who has endured humiliation and hardship, plans to use his charm."

"I can't wait to be the star of this show!"

"Seriously, just thinking about it makes my heart itch!"

……

Heavenly Dou Empire, Fasno Province.

Ever since Tang Hao led Cinderella and Tang San out of that valley, they have been running at full speed.

He had no destination, nor any direction.

At this moment, Tang Hao was a soulless shell, only his muscle memory and a deep-seated hatred were keeping him running away.

He was fast, but he seemed unsteady and staggered, as if he might fall over at any moment.

“A-Gin…A-Gin…”

Tang Hao's eyes were vacant, and he would call out "A Yin" from time to time, as if A Yin were still alive.

He felt no physical exhaustion; only immense sorrow enveloped him.

In Tang Hao's arms, Cinderella's small body swayed violently with his jolting.

She struggled to pry open the inner wall of the cocoon with her small hands, her large blue eyes filled with helplessness and despair.

"It's been a whole day! A whole day!"

Cinderella was internally ranting about Tang Hao.

"All this big oaf does is run! Run! Run! Is his brain just a mess of mush except for Ah Yin's last words?"

Cinderella is now utterly speechless about Tang Hao.

At first, she was also saddened by Ah Yin's death, but as an adult, she knew that the dead cannot be brought back to life, so she quickly adjusted her state of mind.

She figured Tang Hao must be feeling really bad right now, so she decided not to bother him. Therefore, on her escape, Cinderella perfectly controlled her physiological reactions as a baby.

but!

Tang Hao carried her and Ah Yin's newborn baby for an entire day!

Throughout the day, Tang Hao would occasionally shout out, completely oblivious to the fact that he was carrying two babies in his arms.

Cinderella turned her head and looked at the baby who was still sleeping soundly beside her.

With a sigh, I noticed the little guy's face was wrinkled, and his lips were turning purple from hunger and cold.

"Hey! Wake up, little one!"

Cinderella poked Tang San's little face with her hand, trying to wake him up. She was worried that the child would starve to death right after birth.

And she's so hungry right now; she hasn't eaten anything all day.

Besides that, Cinderella now has something even worse to do.

"Waaah..."

She felt an intense urge to urinate and was about to burst!

Under Ah Yin's meticulous care, when has she ever suffered like this?

"Oh my god! Someone save me! Someone do something about this unreliable, big, dumb guy!"

Cinderella was on the verge of tears.

She missed the days when Ah Yin was around. Ah Yin was always so gentle and attentive, arranging everything perfectly, from feeding time to changing diapers.

Tang Hao only needed to stand by and watch with a silly grin, or awkwardly give her a hug.
