Chapter 556 Qian Renxue and the Second Team Members
"Greetings, Your Highness."
After a long internal struggle, Yue Guan took a deep breath and finally stepped forward. He first bowed to Ye Qifeng, then turned to Qian Renxue, solemnly placed his hand on his chest, and bowed deeply.
"Greetings, Young Master!"
"Are you... Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan?"
Qian Renxue frowned slightly as her reminiscing with Raven was interrupted. She looked in the direction of the sound and immediately saw Yue Guan's alluring, woman-like face. Following the memories in her mind, she quickly remembered Yue Guan's identity.
But precisely because she recognized Yue Guan's identity, her slender and beautiful eyebrows furrowed even more deeply.
She hadn't forgotten that her father, Qian Xunji, was accidentally murdered, and this Title Douluo before her, with his alluring, almost effeminate appearance, was somewhat related to it—
It was precisely because Yue Guan and the other titled Douluo failed to protect him that his father, Qian Xunji, was tragically killed by Tang Hao.
Looking at Yue Guan's alluring face, Qian Renxue frowned, but quickly relaxed. Although she still harbored some resentment, she thought about it carefully and decided to let it go.
Over the years, she has learned part of the truth about her father Qian Xunji's murder from her grandfather Qian Daoliu. Although it is not complete, she is certain that the blame cannot be placed entirely on Yue Guan alone.
At most, he failed to provide adequate protection and was somewhat negligent in his duties; his crime does not warrant death, and there is no need to hold a grudge.
Besides, his grandfather Qian Daoliu and the second elder, Golden Crocodile Douluo, had already punished him back then. If he were to hold a grudge now, it would seem petty and narrow-minded.
As her thoughts raced, Qian Renxue's brows relaxed, and her expression returned to calm and serene.
"Yes, young master, I am Yue Guan."
Faced with Qian Renxue's slightly doubtful question, Yue Guanxin's emotions were somewhat complicated, and her expression looked a little nervous, but she still nodded and admitted it truthfully.
Qian Renxue nodded calmly at him:
"I heard from Xiao Feng that you are the team leader and training instructor for the Spirit Hall's second team this time?"
Hmm? Little Feng? Such an intimate nickname? Oh, right, the young master came over with the holy son by the arm, it seems their relationship is definitely extraordinary! Damn it, that old ghost didn't tell me.
While Yue Guanxin was surprised, she muttered "Ghost Douluo" to herself, but on the surface she calmly replied:
"The team leader is actually His Highness the Holy Son, and as for the position of team training instructor, it is indeed me who takes on this role."
"However, I don't need to worry about the training of these children. They arrange their training on their own according to His Highness's requirements."
"I'm only here to better protect their safety."
Qian Renxue thought about it and agreed. With Xiao Feng there, there was no need for Yue Guan to worry about training.
Speaking of which, Xiao Feng is really something. He managed to gather so many exceptionally talented girls to form a team. Any one of them could easily crush a whole bunch of prodigies.
And judging from their appearance, these girls seem to trust Xiao Feng quite a bit.
However, aren't they being a little too intimate? Every time they see Xiaofeng, they swarm around her.
She had a feeling that there were one or two pairs of eyes looking at Xiao Feng with something unusual in them. She was all too familiar with that kind of gaze, so she knew she had to be careful.
Qian Renxue muttered to herself.
After a moment, she gathered her thoughts and waved to Yueguan:
"Then you should do a good job and protect them. After all, they are the pillars of our Spirit Hall and cannot be lost. Don't fail in your duty like you did back then."
The first part of what she said was fine, but the last part made Yue Guanxin's heart skip a beat, and she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. She subconsciously thought that Qian Renxue was giving her a warning, so she quickly forced a reply:
"Yue Guan understands, and will certainly live up to the young master's expectations."
While Qian Renxue and Yue Guan were talking, Ye Qifeng stood quietly by and watched.
He could clearly sense that Qian Renxue didn't hold much grudge against Yue Guan, but Yue Guan didn't seem to think so, as if he was worried that Qian Renxue would use the incident of Qian Xunji's murder to attack him.
In fact, given Yue Guan's strength and status, he didn't need to be so respectful to Qian Renxue.
Perhaps it was his guilt that led him to behave this way.
After all, while Qian Xunji's death wasn't entirely his fault, it couldn't be said that he was completely uninvolved; he at least bore some responsibility.
One thing that makes Ye Qifeng happy is that Qian Renxue's personality hasn't gone astray.
If things had continued as they were originally destined to go.
Qian Renxue will eventually become a ruthless person who prioritizes profit and will stop at nothing to achieve her goals, even abandoning titled Douluo elders who are loyal to her own faction.
Faced with Yue Guan, a titled Douluo connected to the death of her father Qian Xunji and who had switched allegiance to Bibi Dong, she would never be so kind as to talk to him politely. Instead, she would treat him as an enemy and eliminate and abandon him directly.
Fortunately, my arrival reversed this outcome, preventing Qian Renxue from becoming cold and twisted, and instead allowing her to maintain her kind nature.
Although he can be a bit domineering, arrogant, and unwilling to admit defeat—in every sense of the word.
Ye Qifeng was quite pleased with this.
Ye Qifeng wasn't the only one paying attention to Qian Renxue; Feng Xian, Ye Lan, Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, Bai Chenxiang, and Xiao Mingyue were also surrounding him.
When Raven called out "Sister Xue'er," all the girls' eyes immediately turned to her.
When they heard Yue Guan address Qian Renxue as "Young Master," they all stared in astonishment.
Ruiwen, still nestled in Qian Renxue's soft embrace, was equally stunned. She too had only just learned Qian Renxue's true identity, and couldn't help but gasp inwardly—
Good heavens! So Sister Xue'er is the young master of the Spirit Hall. No wonder Brother Ye said her identity was somewhat special.
"Alright, everyone, look over here."
Just then, Ye Qifeng clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention. Raven finally broke free from Qian Renxue's warm and fragrant embrace, turned around and returned to her team to stand with her sisters.
Then Ye Qifeng grabbed Qian Renxue's hand, pulled her back to his side, faced everyone, and introduced her:
"Let me introduce you to this beautiful lady standing in front of you. Her name is Qian Renxue."
"Just as Elder Ju just said, Xue'er is the young master of our Spirit Hall. Because she is carrying out a top-secret mission, she needs to hide her identity, so remember, do not tell anyone."
"You are all familiar with the confidentiality regulations, so I won't go into detail. Just remember them yourselves."
"Also, you can call her Sister Xue'er, just like Raven does."
The girls, including Raven, looked at each other in surprise, seemingly taken aback by Ye Qifeng's words.
Qian Renxue's gaze swept over the row of beautiful girls, lingering briefly on Zhu Zhuqing's chest before casually shifting away. A stunning smile played on her lips as she waved in greeting.
"Hello everyone, sisters!"
Noticing the captivating smile on Qian Renxue's stunning face, the girls felt their hearts melt, and they all greeted her with a chorus of "Hello!"
"Hello, Sister Xue'er!"
Then, apart from Raven, the other six girls who were meeting Qian Renxue for the first time began to introduce themselves in turn—
"Hello, Sister Xue'er, my name is Feng Xian."
"My name is Ye Lan. You can call me Xiao Lan, just like you do, sister."
"Sister Xue'er, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Jin Yue'er. Grandpa often talks about you to me, saying that you're the most outstanding person in the world. Oh, right, I forgot to mention, my grandfather is the Second Elder of the Hall of Offerings, Golden Crocodile Douluo. You should know him, sister."
"Hello, Sister Xue'er. I am Zhu Zhuqing. You can just call me Zhuqing."
"I am Bai Chenxiang, you can call me Xiangxiang, sister."
"Hello, sister, my name is Mingyue."
After listening to the polite self-introductions of the girls, Qian Renxue's initial wariness and complicated thoughts suddenly vanished, and she felt inexplicably close to these girls.
Not long after they introduced themselves, the seven girls, plus Qian Renxue, the eldest sister, quickly started chatting together.
After they had finished chatting, Ye Qifeng called Qian Renxue and Ruiwen, intending to head to Lanba Academy, but they were stopped by the remaining girls.
"What are you doing here?"
Looking at the six girls blocking his way, who seemed to have something to say, Ye Qifeng was a little confused.
Before Feng Xian and the others could reply, Raven, whose expression was slightly embarrassed, spoke up first to answer his question:
"Um, Brother Ye, didn't you say last night that you were going to visit Sister Erlong today? I accidentally let it slip, and then Fengxian, Xiaolan, Yue'er, Zhuqing, Xiangxiang, and Xiaomingyue all said they wanted to go together."
As she spoke, Raven's voice gradually weakened, clearly because she felt embarrassed that she had failed to keep the "secret".
Ye Qifeng didn't care whether Ruiwen had let something slip, but instead asked the other girls a question:
"You all want to go?"
The girls immediately nodded repeatedly, making a series of "uh-huh" sounds.
"Let's go together then."
Ye Qifeng nodded slightly in agreement, then smiled and said:
"Now that you've already met Sister Xue'er, why don't you also get to know Sister Erlong?"
"There are too many people, so let's take a horse-drawn carriage."
As he spoke, he turned to look at Yue Guan:
"Elder Ju, I'm afraid we'll have to trouble you to come with us."
"No problem." Yue Guan immediately understood and nodded with a smile. "Wait a moment, I'll be right there."
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared from everyone's sight.
Before long, a magnificent and spacious carriage stopped in front of the Heavenly Dou Temple gate, picked up the group, and quickly drove towards the West City.
…………
The morning sunlight broke through the thin mist and shone into Blue Tyrant Academy.
The forest, where Liu Erlong usually lives alone, is unusually lively today.
Early in the morning, Liu Erlong changed into her usual black leather outfit and prepared to go out to check on the training of several elite students from the Blue Tyrant Academy team.
As the start of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament approaches, she has gradually ended her secluded retreat and returned to the daily management of Blue Tyrant Academy, while also taking on the training of Blue Tyrant Academy's elite team members.
However, just as Liu Erlong was about to leave, she suddenly encountered her good friend Ye Huiyin visiting the forest cabin with her daughter Ye Lingling, who also brought news that Ye Qifeng had arrived in Tiandou City.
At first, Liu Erlong couldn't believe it, thinking that Ye Huiyin and Ye Lingling were just teasing him, because Ye Qifeng hadn't mentioned this in their previous correspondence—the real reason was that Ye Qifeng wanted to give her a surprise.
But she soon received confirmation from Jiangzhu, whom she valued most, that the news was true.
In her extreme excitement, Liu Erlong instantly forgot about the training with the Blue Tyrant Academy team and decided to stay at the forest cabin to entertain Ye Huiyin and her daughter Ye Lingling.
But to her surprise...
Not long after, as if they had planned it, Poison Douluo Dugu Bo, who was also the senior advisor and honorary vice dean of Blue Tyrant Academy, actually descended from the sky with his granddaughter Dugu Yan and arrived at the forest cabin.
After a detailed discussion.
Liu Erlong finally understood that the real purpose of Ye Huiyin and Ye Lingling, mother and daughter, as well as Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan, grandfather and grandson, visiting his secluded residence one after the other was not to visit him, but to see his beloved little brother Xiao Feng.
Liu Erlong was at a loss for words.
However, upon learning that Ye Qifeng had arrived in Tiandou City and would be visiting her soon, Liu Erlong was still very excited and looking forward to it.
But at the same time, she also felt a vague sense of complexity and irritation.
Of course, this was mainly aimed at the two girls, Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan.
Their eyes were so obvious; they were definitely after Xiao Feng, and they were clearly intent on "devouring" him.
Liu Erlong was entertaining the four people in the small living room of the wooden house. Just as the atmosphere was becoming more and more subtle, she suddenly sensed that Jiangzhu's aura had reappeared in the forest where she was living in seclusion.
Behind her, there seemed to be several different auras.
But there was one scent that she recognized very well; it was the scent of Raven, whom she had once regarded as both a daughter and a sister.
"Is it Little Raven?"
Liu Erlong was slightly taken aback, then realized something, his breathing quickened instantly, and he immediately swayed and rushed out of the small living room without saying a word, running towards the courtyard gate.
His eagerness was so great that he even used his soul power.
Liu Erlong wasn't the only one who sensed it; others did as well.
"That aura is that of the little girl who followed the Holy Son back then."
Ye Huiyin and Ye Lingling exchanged a glance and stood up from their seats at the same time.
They couldn't sense Qian Renxue and Ye Qifeng's auras, but they could still detect the auras of others, especially Raven's, since they had met her quite a few times before.
"I didn't expect even that guy from Chrysanthemum Pass to come."
Dugu Bo put down his teacup, pursed his lips, and muttered something under his breath.
Compared to others, as a level 96 Super Douluo, he could sense one more aura, namely his old nemesis, Chrysanthemum Pass.
Then, he smiled and looked at his granddaughter, Dugu Yan, and said in a slightly encouraging tone:
"Yan Yan, the Holy Son Ye Qifeng you want to see."
"He's here!"
