Chapter 89: The Two Who Are PUA-ing Each Other

~8 min read 1,421 words

Nan Feihuang did not notice Qian Renxue's self-imagined scenarios at all, and even developed the idea of grooming her into a "lickspittle."

He still tried hard to offer an explanation, lest he inexplicably earn the bad reputation of a lecher.

"Um, Miss Qian Renxue, actually I..."

"You don't need to call me that anymore." Qian Renxue interrupted again, "We have both experienced danger together, so we can be considered friends through life and death. I am a bit older than you; if you don't mind, just call me sister."

"Sister?" Nan Feihuang was slightly stunned. How had this Qian Renxue inexplicably become so enthusiastic?

However, although his intelligence was not as high as Xun Yu's, he was not stupid, and he soon figured it out.

This Qian Renxue was trying to PUA him. It seemed she had realized that the second type of "perfect woman" he had mentioned to her before was exactly her type.

So she hoped that, in the identity of Xue Qinghe, she would gain his reverence, and in the identity of Qian Renxue, she would gain his admiration.

If the two were combined in the future, wouldn't that make him even more devoted?

Nan Feihuang smiled slightly and said to himself, "Very well, since you want to play this game, this General will accompany you to the end."

Pretending to be embarrassed, he scratched the back of his head and said in a low voice, "Is... is it really okay? To call you so intimately?"

"Hehe, you're shy, and a bit cute too." Qian Renxue had an "as I expected" expression; this child just liked her but was afraid to express it.

Then she would give him another step up.

"What could be wrong with it? You saved my life, after all. From now on, you can call me Xue Jie, and I will call you Feihuang directly, how about that?"

Nan Feihuang nodded quickly, "Mm, of course, that's great. Then Xue Jie, please take care of me from now on."

The image he was deliberately projecting now was that of someone ecstatic at being favored by the goddess in his heart.

Seeing this, Qian Renxue secretly cheered that her plan was working.

A night passed. After resting for the night, Qian Renxue's spirit was much better, but her injuries remained; she still could not summon her soul power, and her leg was still broken.

But they could not stay in this cave forever; they had to try to head out.

"Feihuang, come in!" Qian Renxue called toward the outside of the cave.

Throughout the previous night, Nan Feihuang had stayed outside the cave after she fell asleep, partly to avoid overstepping boundaries, and partly to keep watch for her while she was severely injured.

How could Qian Renxue not understand Nan Feihuang's intentions? Because of this, her favor for him deepened a little more.

Nan Feihuang walked from outside the cave to her side, squatted down, and asked, "Xue Jie, how is your body now?"

"Much better. Feihuang, we must leave here as soon as possible, but I cannot move now, so I have to trouble you to carry me. Don't worry, although I cannot use my soul power, my Soul Emperor-level spiritual power is still there, so I can sense the surroundings and guide you." Qian Renxue was not very concerned about the boundaries between men and women at this moment; after all, if they continued to stay here, they would sooner or later be discovered by those Ten Thousand Year Soul Beasts, and at that time, their lives would be in danger, so how could she care about so much else?

"Okay." Hearing this, Nan Feihuang bent his body, turned his back to Qian Renxue, and said, "Xue Jie, come on up."

Qian Renxue climbed onto Nan Feihuang's back. Although Nan Feihuang was only ten years old, he was growing rapidly and his height was not much different from Qian Renxue's, so carrying her did not look cumbersome.

The two walked out of the cave, and Qian Renxue released her spiritual power, "Feihuang, go to the right, don't go to the left; there are several life signs there, probably Ten Thousand Year Soul Beasts."

"Understood." Following Qian Renxue's instructions, Nan Feihuang carried her toward the right.

At the same time, Qian Renxue would reach out her finger to carve their Spirit Hall's secret signal on nearby large trees along the way. As long as Snake Spear Douluo and the others could see it, they would be able to follow the signal to find them.

Meanwhile, Citun Douluo had finally rushed back to the Spirit Hall and was trembling as he knelt in the Offering Hall, looking at the seven people sitting above and reporting the situation.

Citun Douluo knew that Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong were at odds, so after returning, he did not go to the Pope Palace, but went directly to the Offering Hall.

"What? Little Xue'er is missing? Incompetent thing! A dignified Title Douluo, and you couldn't even protect Little Xue'er? What use are you?" A young boy with white hair and a youthful face jumped up from his seat, his face full of anger and worry.

One could feel that with his anger, the temperature in the surroundings began to drop rapidly.

"Old Five, calm down. This matter cannot be blamed on Ci Xue." The handsome man sitting in the chief seat said, "A mysterious Spirit Beast that can defeat three Title Douluo in an instant cannot be an ordinary Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beast. I fear it is a Ferocious Beast that only exists in legends. According to my estimation, its cultivation is at least five hundred thousand years or more. I didn't expect that such a creature would exist in the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest and that you would run into it. You may rise first."

"Many thanks to the Great Elder for your mercy!" Ci Xue stood up, sweating coldly, "Great Elder, your subordinate was truly no match for that mysterious Spirit Beast, and I do not know the current situation of the Young Master. With no other options, I could only return to seek your assistance, Great Elder."

The Great Elder Qian Daoliu nodded, "Mm, the choice you made was very correct. Rest assured, Xue'er is still alive. Although she has not yet opened the Angel God Trial, she has long been under the attention of the Angel God. If something had happened to her, the Angel God would not have failed to give me some warning."

The reason Qian Daoliu could remain so calm until now was precisely because he was certain that Qian Renxue had not been killed at this moment.

As the former Pope of the Spirit Hall and the current Great Elder, Qian Daoliu naturally understood a principle that even a Grandmaster would know.

The more a person you care about encounters a crisis, the calmer you must be. Panic leads to chaos, and chaos leads to mistakes, which will only cause greater trouble.

"Great Elder, then what do you say we should do?" Sitting in the second seat of the Offering Hall was a man with a rugged face; it was the Second Offering, Golden Crocodile Douluo.

"Of course, we must immediately set out to save Little Xue. This time, I will go personally. If that Spirit Beast is truly that powerful, only I have the confidence to deal with it." No matter how calm Qian Daoliu appeared, the worry in his heart was no less than anyone else's; Qian Renxue was the most important person in this world to him.

"Great Elder, let this old man go too. If I don't see Little Xue'er, I truly cannot rest easy." That young boy, the Fifth Offering, jumped out again.

His name was Guangling Douluo, and he had a somewhat childish temperament. Back when Qian Renxue had not yet set off for the Heaven Dou Empire, he and she were the ones who played best together.

It could be said that in the childhood Qian Renxue spent being disliked by Bibi Dong, the one who brought her the most joy was this Guangling Douluo.

The two of them were both grandfather and grandchild, and childhood playmates.

Qian Daoliu nodded upon hearing this, "Alright, Old Five, then you will set out with me. Second Offering, during this time, all matters within the Offering Hall will be left to your decision."

Golden Crocodile Douluo replied, "Yes, Great Elder!"
