Xiao Wu looked at Xiao Tian's somewhat guilty eyes, and for some reason, her heart felt a little heavy. Then she looked at Rongrong. Could it be that something had happened between these two without her knowing?
But then she thought about it again, no, she had been with Xiao Tian most of the time.
Just then, Crown PrinceXue Qinghe walked over, a gentle smile on his face as he looked at Xiao Tian and said, "Xiao Tian, I didn't expect you to already be a Spirit King at such a young age. Can we talk?"
Xiao Tian was a little surprised what Qian Renxue wanted to do by finding him. Recruit him?
But with him currently looking like a Crown Prince, how could he recruit himself?
If it were the Crown Prince's true self, his current strength would at most be that of a Spirit King, and the Tiandou Royal Family didn't have anything that attracted him. Qian Renxue couldn't possibly expose her true appearance directly, could she?
Heh heh, it's impossible to even think about it.
However, he also breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, looking at the two and saying, "Xiao Wu, Rongrong, I'll go with the Crown Prince for a bit, you two..."
Before Xiao Tian could finish, he was interrupted by Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu said indifferently, "Brother, you go with the Crown Prince. Rongrong and I will have a chat."
Thump.
Xiao Tian had a bad premonition, but seeing Xiao Wu's unquestionable gaze, Xiao Tian was helpless and could only nod, "Mm, alright."
Who told him to be guilty?
"Please," Qian Renxue said to Xiao Tian.
On the way.
Qian Renxue said, "Xiao Tian, it seems you have quite a few admirers. Don't mind me, I just heard it from others in the stands, so I was a bit curious. If you don't want to say, then never mind."
To her surprise, Xiao Tian really didn't say anything!
Didn't he hear that her words were just polite remarks?
Shouldn't a normal person just briefly explain his situation with the two women?
Xiao Tian didn't take Qian Renxue's bait at all. He knew that Qian Renxue calling him over to talk was definitely not for gossip, so he directly said, "Crown Prince, I wonder what you truly wish to discuss with me?"
Qian Renxue slowly said, "Actually, it's nothing much. I heard in the palace long ago that an unparalleled genius appeared in the academy, and I always wanted to see what this person was like. Unfortunately, after a certain someone enrolled, he basically disappeared from the academy. I even asked my teacher, School Master Ning, to introduce me, but who would have thought that person disappeared again."
Xiao Tian: ...
No need to guess, the 'certain someone' Qian Renxue was talking about was none other than himself, wasn't it?
Xiao Tian: "So, has Crown Prince seen him now? Then just speak directly."
Qian Renxue's footsteps paused slightly, and she stopped. She hadn't expected Xiao Tian to be so direct.
Are all Spirit Masters with a Spirit like a sword like this?
It's just a pity that she couldn't restore her true form now, otherwise she really would want to spar with the current Xiao Tian.
To see whether her Angelic Sacred Sword (not a divine artifact) was more powerful, or Xiao Tian's sword.
Qian Renxue looked into Xiao Tian's eyes and said seriously, "With your current strength, Xiao Tian, you can completely graduate. Now it's just a matter of waiting to participate in the Soul Master Competition. What are your plans for the future? How about... becoming my person?"
Become your person?
Xiao Tian immediately looked at Qian Renxue with a strange gaze. If you said that with your true form, I might consider it for a tiny bit, but with this masculine appearance now, it just doesn't feel right no matter how I think about it.
"Crown Prince, my sexual orientation is normal," Xiao Tian said jokingly.
Even Qian Renxue, who was maintaining a gentle demeanor, couldn't help but darken her expression and have a vein pop on her forehead when she heard Xiao Tian's words.
How come she had never heard that Xiao Tian's mouth was so cheap?
Her mouth twitched, and she tried her best to suppress the urge to slap Xiao Tian, then smiled: "Xiao Tian, you really like to joke. My sexual orientation is also normal. What I meant was, after you graduate, would you be willing to work for me? I can satisfy all your cultivation needs."
Xiao Tian: Painting a big picture, huh? All cultivation needs? Can you give me a Spirit Bone if I want one? Can you give me yourself if I want you?
Xiao Tian couldn't help but secretly grumble to himself.
"Crown Prince, please don't mind me. I was just joking. After all, I've heard quite a few rumors from the academy, which is why I said that."
"What rumors?" Qian Renxue, who spent most of her time in the imperial palace, truly hadn't heard any rumors.
Xiao Tian lowered his voice and said, "Many people say that the Crown Prince currently has no women around him, but quite a lot of men, suspected of having a preference for men!"
"Crown Prince, it seems they're not baseless. Look at the Fourth Prince, Xue Beng, who is a playboy all day, frequenting various lewd establishments with countless women around him, but you barely have any women around you. Plus, your political achievements have no stains, which makes people have other associations..."
"That's utter nonsense!" Qian Renxue's face showed anger.
Her two uncles hadn't even told her about this matter.
Qian Renxue took a deep breath, her chest rising and falling. Xiao Tian just watched. Hmm, as expected of a Spirit Bone close to 100,000 years, the disguise effect is good. You can't tell it's a woman's body at all.
And Qian Renxue, in her anger, didn't notice anything wrong with Xiao Tian's gaze just now. After all, she would never have thought that Xiao Tian already knew her identity as a woman.
Facing Qian Renxue's recruitment, Xiao Tian merely smiled slightly. In Qian Renxue's eyes, it seemed to contain a hint of mockery? She didn't know if it was her illusion.
Under normal circumstances, Xiao Tian was still a commoner, how could he dare to show mockery to her, the Crown Prince?
"Crown Prince, as for recruitment, forget it. I am someone who yearns for freedom and is unwilling to be inferior to others. No matter what, I want to be on top! As for the resources you mentioned, the only ones I'd be interested in are Spirit Bones of 50,000 years or more. Can the Crown Prince afford them?"
Xiao Tian stared directly into Qian Renxue's bright eyes.
Unwilling to be on the bottom? Want to be on top?
Qian Renxue suddenly realized that Xiao Tian's philosophy was very similar to hers. In the future, she would definitely surpass Bibi Dong and take charge of everything in Spirit Hall, instead of being disguised as an EmpireCrown Prince, restricted everywhere, as she was now.
Qian Renxue completely missed the hidden meaning in Xiao Tian's words. If she were in her female form right now, she might have noticed a slight oddity. Xiao Tian was clearly hinting at something suggestive!
Xiao Tian originally thought that their conversation would end here, but he didn't expect that his words would further ignite Qian Renxue's desire to conquer him.
