Chapter 576: Qian Renxue Acting Coquettish, You Bad Person_1

"What are you daydreaming about here by yourself?" Xu Ran looked at Qian Renxue's stunningly beautiful figure and lost himself in thought for a moment. To make such a beauty feel sad is truly detestable. But what was done was done, and he could only continue on this path.

He couldn't just hand over Bi Bidong without a fight; to do so would make him less than a man.

Bi Bidong was also miserable. He wanted to save her from her downfall.

He wanted to give them happiness and joy, to give them everything he had for their happiness.

As for the past, he wouldn't mind. He was here now, and he would not let them repeat the same mistakes from the original story.

Thinking of this, Xu Ran reached out and wrapped his arms around Qian Renxue's slender waist from behind, feeling the soft touch and the fragrance that was like the finest perfume in the world entering his nose. Xu Ran couldn't help but press his body tightly against hers.

Xu Ran held her tightly, as if he wanted to meld Qian Renxue into his own body.

The last time he was with Qian Renxue, that night was wonderful; only he knew how good she truly was. Some things couldn't be seen just from the surface—none in the world would know, only he could appreciate Qian Renxue's true beauty. It was an unprecedented enjoyment.

Light, pure, and gentle energy seemed to caress the body.

Qian Renxue's beauty was absolutely not inferior to Xiaowu's, even surpassing in some aspects. Yet, such a woman was hurt by Tang San in the original story. He couldn't fathom why Tang San would choose Xiaowu over Qian Renxue.

He thought, only Qian Renxue could match up to him, serve as a stepping stone for his rise to greatness.

If he had chosen Qian Renxue, he could only have become an ordinary god. By making an enemy of Qian Renxue, he could step over the body of the Angel God and ascend to godhood in one fell swoop, a feat that would surely shake the Divine Realm.

Regrettably, Qian Renxue and the others couldn't see through this. In their eyes lay only feelings, simple-minded and unable to understand the complexity of human nature. They let Tang San go time after time, hoping to move him. Little did they know that once he seized the opportunity to grow, what awaited them was an irreversible doom.

Not everyone understands gratitude.

"Xu Ran..." Qian Renxue's delicate body trembled slightly, her familiar voice vibrant with excitement. Although her feelings were complicated, her longing for Xu Ran was predominant.

To a couple newly in love, deeply attached to each other, even being apart for just over a dozen days felt unbearable to Qian Renxue.

"I've come to find you. Have you missed me these past few days?" Xu Ran stroked Qian Renxue's waist and asked softly.

"No, I didn't miss you at all."

Turning around to look at Xu Ran's handsome face, Qian Renxue pouted and said proudly.

Upon seeing Xu Ran, all the previous grievances and dissatisfaction in her heart vanished, replaced by deep affection.

She had already come to see Xu Ran as the most precious person in her life; it was precisely because of her deep love for him that Qian Renxue was so afraid of losing him.

"You're lying. I just heard you muttering my name," Xu Ran said, pinching Qian Renxue's cheek indulgently. Her cheeks felt soft and were comfortable to squeeze.

```

"No, you heard wrong," Qian Renxue still pouted, casting off Xu Ran's offending hand from her body.

"What's the matter? I see you sulking all by yourself here. Who upset you? I'll go beat them up for you," Xu Ran feigned ignorance.

Women and men are different; sometimes even if she knows the outcome, she may not want you to speak the truth. Instead, she might expect you to lie to her. If you're unwilling even to say nice things to coddle her, then it's truly love lost. Such is the thinking of a woman.

Moreover, Qian Renxue still doesn't know anything; she's merely speculating. This makes it even easier to deal with.

"Hmph, who in Martial Soul Hall has the audacity to bully me? I am the Young Master of Martial Soul Hall, even Bi Bidong can't give me trouble in Martial Soul Hall," Qian Renxue said discontentedly. Since returning to Martial Soul Hall, she had rarely seen Bi Bidong. Both Bi Bidong and she now needed vast amounts of time for cultivation, so naturally, their chances of meeting were slim.

Furthermore, both deliberately avoided each other to sidestep awkwardness.

Even though Qian Renxue often clamored about seizing control of Martial Soul Hall from Bi Bidong, she was all bark and no bite. If the time actually came, and Bi Bidong showed the slightest sign of yielding, Qian Renxue would not be able to follow through.

Qian Renxue has always been someone who cherishes relationships deeply. In the original story, Tang San capitalized on this to trap her. Qian Renxue, having become a god long before Tang San, hesitated to set her murderous intent on him due to his subtle insinuations.

If she could be so towards Tang San, it would be even more so with Bi Bidong.

During the battle between the two gods, Qian Renxue ultimately chose to stand with Bi Bidong.

Now, Bi Bidong's hurt to Qian Renxue was far from profound; Qian Dao Liu was not yet dead, and Qian Renxue remained an innocent girl.

"In that case, I'm puzzled. Since no one in Martial Soul Hall dares defy you, who could have made you angry?"

"Let me think... it wouldn't be me, would it?" Xu Ran stroked his chin, speaking deeply.

His slightly comical expression made Qian Renxue burst into laughter, but she immediately restrained her smile, continued to put on a stern face, and said to Xu Ran, "You're right, it's you who annoyed me. You bad person."

Qian Renxue raised her dainty fists and gently pounded on Xu Ran's chest, as if she were questioning him, but it appeared more like she was being coquettish with him.

Before Xu Ran arrived, she had already considered how to confront him, what tone to use—forceful and imposing, making it hard for Xu Ran to catch his breath. However, upon seeing him, she threw caution to the wind, only showing tenderness, unable to toughen up against Xu Ran at all.

"What did I do now?" Xu Ran shrugged his shoulders.

"How dare you say that. The last time you went to the advanced Soul Master academy competition in Tiandou City, you brought a woman with you. Do you dare say who that woman was?" Qian Renxue looked at Xu Ran, asking seriously.

She didn't directly ask if it was Bi Bidong; after all, if she was mistaken, it could affect her relationship with Xu Ran. A relationship without trust is flawed.

"Um, why are you asking this?" Xu Ran touched his nose, having already thought of a strategy.

"Hmph, I just want to know who that person is. A mere commoner, without any 'Cultivation Level,' and yet able to catch your eye—I'm quite curious. Considering your standards have always been high, you wouldn't easily take a fancy to an ordinary woman," Qian Renxue's golden pupils looked at Xu Ran with solemnity.

"I didn't want to tell you, but since you've asked, I might as well. Her, you should be very familiar with her. You've met her quite a few times before. I did it because I was worried it would be awkward for you if she revealed her identity to you," he said.
