Chapter 79: The Sign of Death: Qian Renxue's Misunderstanding

~8 min read 1,501 words

The two parties sat opposite each other in the private room. Lan Xue suddenly looked at Qian Renxue and said, "Your Excellencies, won't you introduce me? May I ask who this young lady is?"

Ci Xue and She Long exchanged a glance; since they had been seen, there was no hiding it anymore.

In truth, there was no need to overly conceal Qian Renxue's identity; it wasn't as if it were shameful. As long as no one knew that Qian Renxue and Xue Qinghe were the same person, it would suffice.

"This is the daughter of the former Pope of our Spirit Hall, the younger sister of the current Pope, Young Master Qian Renxue," Ci Xue introduced in a low voice.

He did not know the true relationship between Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong, merely assuming the two were sisters, as one was Qian Xunji's disciple and the other was Qian Xunji's daughter.

Lan Xue nodded. "So that is how it is. I truly did not expect that the former Pope still had offspring in this world. It is a pleasure to meet you, Miss Qian Renxue."

"A pleasure, Your Excellency Crown Ice. And this one here must be the Crown Prince of the Gu Lei Kingdom, right? Ever since I entered this place, you have been staring at me like this. Is that not somewhat impolite?" Qian Renxue said with a smile.

She was not actually angry, because although Nan Feihuang had been watching her, there was not a trace of lewdness in his eyes; instead, curiosity occupied them more.

"Oh, my apologies. It is just that you give me a feeling that is too familiar, Sister." Nan Feihuang returned the smile, his tone unchanging, and he did not feel the slightest bit of nervousness due to Qian Renxue's beauty.

In terms of beauty, Lv Lingqi did not lose to Qian Renxue; looking at other beauties, he felt it was just that.

Perhaps it was because Nan Feihuang's tone was too indifferent, but it made Qian Renxue pause slightly.

She knew her own situation; it was not that she was arrogant, but this was the first time a man had seen her for the first time and remained so calm.

She had not expected to meet two of them today. She could clearly feel that Nan Feihuang was truly calm, and there was another, Dian Wei—this Han Han, anyone could see that his brain was a little problematic.

In his eyes, Qian Renxue's beautiful legs were likely not as good as the chicken legs and pig trotters in his hands; he was currently focused on gnawing on them, do not disturb!

"Then, we shall not disturb you any further. Farewell!" Qian Renxue stood up, preparing to leave. She was somewhat worried that if she continued to be watched by Nan Feihuang like this, he would discover the connection between her and the identity of Xue Qinghe.

She had deeply experienced this child's cleverness over the years; it was better to distance herself sooner.

"Wait, everyone. You have come here to hunt for a Spirit Ring as well, right? Since our goals are the same, why not travel together? It would be better to have some support," Nan Tianchen proposed. There were two Title Douluo on the other side; such strong combat power, if it could be utilized, naturally could not be missed.

If three Title Douluo joined forces, even the Xinghu, which was rumored to be occupied by the Forest Emperor Azure Bull Python and the Forest King Titan Giant Ape, they would dare to intrude.

The closer one got to the center of the forest, the stronger the Spirit Beasts were; this was common knowledge. What Nan Tianchen needed to absorb was an Eighth Spirit Ring, and the requirements for the Spirit Beast's age and species were extremely high. Having one more helper meant one more insurance policy.

"Hehe, no need. The Spirit Beast I intend to hunt is only around twenty thousand years old and will not go to a place too far away. Having Uncle She and Uncle Ci to protect me is enough," Qian Renxue smiled slightly. What kind of person was she? How could she let Nan Tianchen use her so easily?

Having said that, Qian Renxue took the two Title Douluo and left first, leaving behind a disappointed Nan Tianchen, silent others, and Dian Wei, who continued his meal.

"This father of mine still only sees what is right in front of him and lacks a sense of the big picture. Does he think that although Qian Renxue is young, she is a fool who cannot see his intentions?" Nan Feihuang shook his head inwardly.

Nan Tianchen's ability to govern the world in times of peace was quite good, but if he were to conquer the world in the future, it seemed he could not rely on him.

He was just a weakened version of Sunzhongmou; he could govern a country, but when it came to fighting wars, he could only become Sunshiwan, becoming a stepping stone for Zhangbabai's fame in a heartbeat.

"Forget it. It is just hunting for an Eighth Spirit Ring; there is no need to borrow the power of the Spirit Hall. Is it not enough to have me?" Lan Xue comforted her husband.

Nan Tianchen nodded. "That is true. Having you is enough; it was I who was greedy."

"Everyone, let us rest early today. Tomorrow morning, we will set off for the Star Dou Great Forest. First, we will hunt for Spirit Rings for Ling'er and Dian Wei, and then, Mr. Xu Rong, you will take the children back. I will go with Xue'er and Elder Zhang to the depths of the forest to search for high-level Spirit Beasts."

"Understood!" Xu Rong immediately accepted the order.

The crowd dispersed, each returning to their rooms. By coincidence, Nan Feihuang's room was actually right next to Qian Renxue's.

Both of them wanted to return to their rooms at this moment, but they met again.

Then, Nan Feihuang was attracted by Qian Renxue's face again, but this time it was not because of her beauty, but something else?

This Qian Renxue, her forehead was turning black.

As one of the three Immortals of the Three Kingdoms period, Zuo Ci was also skilled in physiognomy. Even if he was not as professional as Xuzijiang, he was definitely not bad. The Dunjia Heavenly Book also contained introductions and learning methods for the art of face reading.

Nan Feihuang was very interested in this, but in order to focus on cultivating soul power, he had not studied it in depth, only taking time to study it a little bit.

A very common ominous judgment in physiognomy is: "the forehead is turning black." The position of the forehead is between the two eyebrows. A person's life, longevity, spirit, desires, seven emotions and six desires, and a lifetime of fortune and misfortune are all reflected in the forehead. One often hears people say that if the forehead turns black, a great disaster is imminent.

A black forehead is a very bad phenomenon. If the forehead is only slightly black, the impact is not particularly large; it may just mean one will have bad luck and it will not affect one's overall fortune. However, if the black energy on the forehead reaches a certain level, then it is terrible.

After obtaining the External Spirit Bone Ghost Xiaotian Bead, Nan Feihuang's eyesight became stronger, and he could see things that others could not see more clearly.

He could clearly see that the black energy between Qian Renxue's eyebrows was almost black enough to shine.

This was definitely a sign of death.

"Crown Prince of Gu Lei, what a coincidence. Every time we meet, you stare at me as if you are possessed. Is that too rude? Just now you used the excuse of feeling familiar; what is it this time?"

"Does 'you are going to die' count?" Nan Feihuang wanted to say that, but of course, he could not be so blunt. He just cupped his hands and said casually, "This time it is purely because Miss Qian Renxue is truly too beautiful. Golden long hair, sacred temperament, Six-Winged Angel—I was momentarily mesmerized. My apologies, I have offended you."

After apologizing, Nan Feihuang pushed open the door and returned to his room.

Only Qian Renxue was left standing there blankly, because she felt she had heard this sentence somewhere before.

Soon, she remembered.

In the past, she had chatted with Nan Feihuang about what type of girl Nan Feihuang liked.

He had answered two types: one was a heroic and spirited female general.

And the other was exactly what he had just said: golden long hair, sacred temperament, six wings!

Qian Renxue finally realized with a start, "So, the type of woman he said he liked back then was actually me!"

"So, just now, could it be that he was confessing his love to me?"
