Yun Chuan put on an act and chatted with Xue Qinghe for a while. Then, when the latter invited him to become a Protectorate Worship of the state, he timely showed a hesitant expression.
The reason he didn't agree immediately was that he was, after all, a dignified Titled Douluo now—some restraint was still necessary.
Moreover, the most important point was that agreeing too readily would instead seem a bit fake and arouse suspicion. So he merely expressed an intention for now, without immediately agreeing, leaving a bit of suspense.
Next, all he needed to do was wait for Xue Qinghe to return to the imperial palace and report this, and then for Emperor Xue Ye to offer even more generous terms. At that time, he could half-push, half-comply and agree.
After a round of conversation.
After learning that Yun Chuan had just arrived here and had not yet settled on a place to rest, "Xue Qinghe" stated that he had a separate courtyard residence that could temporarily serve as a place for Blue Silver Douluo to stay.
After being "unable to refuse," Yun Chuan could only helplessly agree in the end.
As for Xue Beng, who had been kneeling on the ground the entire time, watching his own eldest imperial brother so easily win the favor of a Titled Douluo, he immediately began to doubt his entire life.
"Xue Beng, why are you still kneeling there?" After Yun Chuan and Xue Qinghe stood up, Xue Qinghe looked at Xue Beng, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said with a tone of disappointment, "Hurry up and get up!"
"Oh, oh…"
Xue Beng nodded blankly, then slowly stood up from the ground. But right after that, his legs went weak and he almost knelt down again—it was because he had been kneeling for too long.
"Blue Silver Douluo, this way please." Xue Qinghe no longer paid attention to him. At this moment, a luxurious carriage had already stopped in front of the two of them. Yun Chuan nodded in a perfunctory manner, then took the lead and stepped into the carriage compartment. Xue Qinghe followed closely behind. Clearly, the two were planning to take the carriage to the previously mentioned separate courtyard.
Only Xue Beng was left standing in place, staring blankly at the receding silhouette of the carriage carrying the two of them, without saying a word. His heart felt utterly chilled…
...
Inside the carriage.
The space inside was quite large. Yun Chuan and Xue Qinghe sat facing each other, their gazes meeting, remaining silent for a long time.
After a long while.
Qian Renxue, who was disguised as Xue Qinghe, finally spoke softly, "You heartless little thing. You haven't contacted your big sister for several months. Now you finally remember me."
"How could that be? I like Sister Xue the most."
Yun Chuan quickly reached up and tugged at his face. Then, with a flash of dim light, he directly removed a crystal mask.
After taking off the mask.
In an instant, it was as if light lit up within the enclosed carriage.
Yun Chuan revealed his true appearance. Smiling, he looked at Qian Renxue, who was still in Xue Qinghe's form, and said, "Sister Xue, there are no outsiders in the carriage. You should show your true appearance too. I'm really not used to looking at you like this."
"Hmph!"
"Xue Qinghe" let out a coquettish snort. Making such a girlish gesture with such a rugged exterior truly made Yun Chuan's feelings rather complicated.
Fortunately, very soon, light shone again…
A woman with brilliant golden long hair, noble and radiant golden eyes, like a celestial maiden descending to the mortal world, appeared on the spot!
"Sister Xue, I missed you so much!"
Upon seeing Qian Renxue reveal her true appearance, Yun Chuan immediately pounced over without any shame. His arms wrapped around the girl's slender waist, and he buried his head against her abdomen, acting just like an innocent little boy who had not yet experienced the world, coquettishly seeking affection.
"Stop that! I think you've been flirting with who knows how many girls lately and have long since forgotten about me, haven't you?" Unexpectedly, Qian Renxue didn't fall for this at all. Even though her most sensitive waist was being held, and this little pervert even buried his head against her abdomen and rubbed against her, making her inexplicably feel a bit weak all over…
But as his childhood sweetheart who had watched him grow up, Qian Renxue had long since seen through Yun Chuan's lustful nature. Thus, she said irritably, "Do you still take me for some little girl who doesn't understand anything?"
"How could I?"
Yun Chuan immediately raised his face, looking past the peaks at her peerlessly beautiful face, his eyes filled with gentleness. That unresolvable affection made her heart tremble.
"I will always love Qian Renxue!"
That single sentence, paired with Yun Chuan's sincere and blazing gaze,
Successfully broke through Qian Renxue's defenses.
"Hmph! Who knows whether what you say is true?!" A blush appeared on her pretty face as Qian Renxue turned her head away, unconsciously striking a pose that said: I'm very angry, hurry up and coax me.
Seeing this, Yun Chuan instantly understood.
He immediately moved to sit beside her, then pulled the girl into his arms. At first, Qian Renxue still resisted with a bit of restraint, struggling a few times. But later, feeling the strength of his arms and the warmth coming from his body, her heart ultimately softened, and she gave up resisting, allowing him to hold her like this.
Yun Chuan quietly embraced Qian Renxue without making any movements.
The carriage was very quiet.
Neither of them spoke again.
Actually, since childhood, Yun Chuan had known this: beneath her strong exterior was a fragile core… Qian Renxue was, in essence, a child who was afraid of loneliness and lacked love. And because of this, many times she didn't need any sweet words—just a simple hug was enough to soothe her emotions.
She was a girl who was very easy to satisfy.
Yun Chuan felt tenderness and pity in his heart. Although he always called her Sister Xue, over so many years, Qian Renxue felt more like a younger sister to him. When Yun Chuan was little, what he had always been doing was coaxing his younger sister, indulging her willfulness.
He had also once tried to ease the mother–daughter relationship between Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong.
But it was useless. The hatred of being betrayed by the person she trusted most and regarded as a father! This made it impossible for Bibi Dong to ever truly like Qian Renxue, the child she was forced to give birth to.
Whenever she saw Qian Renxue, she would think of the darkest event of her life.
Every time that happened, Bibi Dong's expression would become extremely gloomy, and her entire aura would be filled with brutality, darkness, and ferocity! This forced Yun Chuan to exhaust all his efforts, desperately acting coquettish and cute… and in the end, relying on his maxed-out good looks to finally wear down her hostility.
Yun Chuan knew that, in truth, the bigger reason Bibi Dong behaved like this was related to the Rakshasa God inheritance she was currently receiving. That was an extremely evil deity, essentially belonging to chaotic evil, and its attributes were mutually incompatible with the Angel God!
And Qian Renxue just so happened to be the Angel God's inheritor of this generation. Her entire body overflowed with the holy power of the Angel God, which triggered rejection from the Rakshasa God power within Bibi Dong's inheritance. That was why Bibi Dong showed such resistance toward Qian Renxue, losing her composure the moment she saw her.
"The gods of Douluo Continent ultimately have far too many flaws… If only there were a true godly inheritance." Yun Chuan sighed inwardly. To be honest, he looked down on the gods of this world. In his opinion, these so-called gods had far too many defects and couldn't be considered true gods at all.
In his heart, even if gods were not omnipotent, they should at least be beings that had condensed a godhead and mastered the power of laws—capable of eternal life, indestructible through countless calamities.
How could they be like the gods of Douluo Continent, who after becoming gods could only be confined to the God Realm, rarely able to descend to the lower world? And the most ridiculous part was that the entire God Realm couldn't even withstand something as trivial as a black hole.
In Yun Chuan's view, the divine system of Douluo Continent was utterly inadequate.
Unfortunately, even though he looked down on it, his current self didn't have the ability to help Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue find a better method of immortality. Thinking about such things was still too far off.
Yun Chuan had only just taken his first step on the path of becoming a powerhouse.
