Chapter 30: Hei Linghun and Xue Qinghe (Part 1)

On top of a building near the Moon Pavilion, Nian Zhen looked at Tang Yuehua, searching around for Nian Zhen as she looked out of the window. The hairpin he had given her was already worn by Tang Yuehua on her hair.

"Enron, wasn't it too easy?" Nian Zhen said.

[Host. It would not have been easy if the host was a virgin in his past life. Coupled with your sweet and shameless talks and your extremely charming face, this was bound to happen the moment you started to act like that towards Tang Yuehua.]

"Hmm...But do you think it may be due to my eyes as well?" Nian Zhen asked.

[Your eyes may have played a certain role but it is definitely not because of your eye's manipulative powers.]

"Hmm..If you say so then…"

[But was it the right choice to leave abruptly?]

"Yes. Let her keep thinking about me. I have already done my best to leave a deep impression on both her mind and heart. For now, let's head to the imperial palace."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Night Time, Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

Inside a certain room, a young man was seen reading a book. The room was lightly decorated yet all the things in the room were very expensive.

"Is that boy an enemy or an ally? Did he guess who I am? No, that is impossible. Even Ning Fenzhi was unable to find who I am.." The man said. Currently Prince Xue Qinghe, aka Qian Renxue was thinking about the encounter she had today. (AN: I don't know if Ning Fenzhi was the real Xue Qinghe's master or not. The fandom says it was not mentioned and even the novel does not mention it.)

"By now the elders must have captured and interrogated him…" Xue Qinghe said.

"You mean me?" A mocking voice echoed in Xue Qinghe's ears.

Standing up immediately, Xue Qinghe took out his sword and looked towards the balcony vigilantly. There she saw the same young man, facing towards her. (AN: He is blindfolded)

"You...What are you doing here? Guards!!" XUe Qinghe shouted. Just like what had happened to Tang Yuehua, nobody answered her calls.

"It is a futile try. The people you sent after me have already been cleaned up. As for the guards, no one will be able to even listen to your screams, your highness." Nian Zhen said with an evil grin.

"What do you want?" Xue Qinghe said coldly.

"Nothing, just wanted to chat with the prince. I can, can't I?" Nian Zhen asked brightly.

"....." Thinking for a while, Xue Qinghe nodded. He was an extremely meticulous person, who is calm, composed, intelligent and has extreme perseverance. He hates to lose and plans things with precision.

After seeing Nian Zhen take a seat so calmly, Xue Qinghe sat down, though still vigilant.

"Say, who are you and what do you want?" Xue Qinghe said coldly.

"Let the prince guess" Nian Zhen said, while picking up Xue Qinghe's tea cup, still containing unfinished tea and drinking it.

"!!?" Xue Qinghe looked at Nian Zhen with a slight blush on her face. She was still a girl. A girl who had not yet experienced such things.

"You...Shameless...That was my cup. I h-had drank from it." Xue Qinghe said, trying to calm down his composure.

"Hmm. I know. That's why I am drinking it." Nian Zhen said. He is a forceful man. A sadist. In his past life, Nian Zhen got different girls due to his forceful and sadistic nature.

"You...I am a man."

"Pfft...Do you still want to deceive me. Girl, I know that you have already guessed that I know who you are. Don't act." Nian Zhen said coldly.

"!!!..You who are you? Who sent you!?" Xue Qinghe said, standing up. If Nian Zhen already knows her secret then she has no other choice but to kill him.

"Whoa there! Don't be impulsive. Even your Idol acknowledges my strength to even make him afraid. You are just a spirit king." Nian Zhen said. (AN: does anyone know which rank she was when she was first revealed.)

"Hmph.." Xue Qinghe hummed coldly. She had thought Nian Zhen was bluffing from the start when Nian Zhen told her he had cleaned up her men. How can a boy seemingly younger than her could be stronger than her.

She wanted to deal with this man as soon as possible without letting anyone know.

"Seraphim.." Xue Qinghe said, summoning her 6 winged Martial soul. Taking out her sword, Xue Qinghe rushed towards Nian Zhen with all her speed.

Before she could even hit Nian Zhen, Nian Zhen had already disappeared leaving only an afterimage. Suddenly, a huge arm caught XUe Qinghe's waist.

"Hmm...Not amusing…'Transmutation'.." Nian Zhen said. After countless experiments, Nian Zhen found that he could transmute even the weakest and the strongest spells and attacks because everything is made up of some kind of matter.

A bright ray of light flashed around the room. Looking at the 'Fake' Xue Qinghe, the previous appearance of the Prince has now reverted back to her original figure.

She had snow white skin, slightly slender phoenix eyes, a face with somewhat stateliness. She was an extremely beautiful person with a cold and indifferent face which exudes dignity. With a plump and balanced figure, the whole person exuded brilliance

"Sigh...She is her daughter after all…" Nian Zhen thought, still holding Qian Renxue's soft and frail waist.

"You!!!" A large blast spread around from Qian Renxue's body. The entire room was practically destroyed yet no one seemed to come or hear it at all.
