Chapter 141: Weak and helpless Dingxiang.
Although being ridiculed and insulted by Qian Renxue, Earl Gengxin did not feel angry at all. Instead, his heart was filled with incomparable fear.
This crazy woman is a psychopath with a problem in her brain.
She did this not to seek justice for the peasants of the Blacksmiths' Guild, nor to gain her own wealth. She just wanted to trample on and torture her own soul and dignity in front of everyone.
In a trance, Earl Gengxin recalled what Qian Renxue had just said.
[When I think of being in the same evil party as you, I feel sad from the bottom of my heart. ]
"Goodbye, Mr. Earl." As Qian Renxue whispered softly, Earl Gengxin only felt his consciousness falling into chaos, and the next moment, his head exploded.
With a bang, a crisp sound like a watermelon breaking echoed throughout the banquet, and a scarlet flower bloomed in the hall, gorgeous and unusual.
"what--"
Screams rang out, and the nobles' bodies all trembled. They no longer had their previous elegance. Unstoppable tears flowed from their wildly turbulent eyes, and meaningless short syllables came out of their mouths, filled with fear.
"Silence." Qian Renxue said softly.
Her voice was soft, but it had enough deterrent power to make them feel like little pigs being strangled by the neck, and their high-pitched screams immediately stopped.
Qian Renxue looked around and said softly, "Our Earl drank too much and lost his footing after getting drunk. Unfortunately, he hit his head and died during the banquet. This is really a sad accident."
"I think you all should understand what you should do, right?"
"After all, I have been holding back so that I don't kill all of you. Don't let me down, my distinguished guests."
She didn't plan to kill everyone, otherwise Gengxin City would be caught up in disputes over the inheritance rights of the nobles. Desires are sometimes endless, and this would not help her in running the Blacksmith Association at all.
Qian Renxue looked indifferently at the headless corpse in front of her, the center of her mysterious and deep purple eyes.
Burning with scarlet luster.
When Qian Renxue hung Earl Gengxin's body on the rack opposite the Wuhun Main Hall, the cheers of the blacksmiths resounded throughout the entire Gengxin City. Young blacksmiths were everywhere running around to tell each other the news. They were full of vigor and high spirits, and they mocked the stubborn old blacksmiths wantonly, like brave soldiers who had won a battle.
This time, even the old stubborn people were moved. Perhaps the girl was really different from others. She was a true aristocrat.
Listening to the proud voice of his idiot disciple, Silong, the clanging sounds of iron hammering disappeared, and the master craftsman Lou Gao also stopped the forging hammer in his hand. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, his eyes showing a strange look.
"What on earth is that woman in the Spirit Hall thinking about? Is the battle armor system really not just a joke? Otherwise, why would she value the blacksmith so much?"
"Whether it's true or not, it seems we have to get in touch with her. As long as it can improve the status of blacksmiths, even if there is a one percent chance, the Blacksmith Association cannot give up."
What's more, he was really interested in something like battle armor, which he had never heard of before. He just looked down on this little girl before, thinking that she didn't know how to forge and that it was probably nonsense, so he never went to meet her.
Now she has made such a big fuss just to get the Blacksmith Guild, and even killed the city lord. It seems that it is true.
Lou Gao actually didn't care that much about the Blacksmith Association. As long as he could see something he had never seen before, it didn't matter whether it was swallowed up by the Spirit Hall or not. If it weren't for the fact that Vice President Titan had some grudges with the Spirit Hall, he wouldn't have deliberately left them out.
Lou Gao pondered for a while, then shouted: "Silong! Go and ask Qian Ling'er to come to the Blacksmith Association as a guest. Maybe I was too mean before. I want to talk to her about this battle armor."
Silong's eyes lit up, "Master! You finally changed your mind! I will go and invite His Highness to come over! In fact, if you still don't agree, I will take Siyu to work for them myself."
Lou Gao snorted coldly and cursed, "You bastard, I don't know you! You came here to do this bullshit job. You are simply bewitched by that woman. How old is she? Don't you see how big and strong you are? Do you think people would look down on you?!"
Silong's face flushed red, "Master, why are you talking nonsense? I never said that I had that idea. I just admire you purely. Do you understand? It's very pure!"
"Bullshit purity, get out of here! I'm annoyed when I see you!" Lou Gao continued to swing the forging hammer. He was too lazy to listen to Silong's excuses. He only liked forging. The clanging sounds rang out in the forging room again.
In the living room of the side hall of the Wuhun main hall.
At this time, Qian Renxue was lazily burying herself in the sofa.
The cheers of the blacksmiths at the door were still echoing. Qian Ling'er's name was resounding throughout the city today. Qian Renxue sighed impatiently.
"It's so noisy."
Thorny Porpoise Douluo released a soul barrier at the entrance of the living room, blocking out the cheers, and chuckled, "I thought you liked this kind of scene."
Qian Renxue crossed her legs and snorted, "I'm not interested. Have you checked the information of the siblings?"
Snake Spear Douluo handed the letter to Qian Renxue and said suspiciously, "Young Master, that sister named A Ke appeared in the Spirit Hall a month ago. She claimed that her parents were both dead. Her spirit was a mutant spirit that had never been seen before, the Emerald Swan, with innate full spirit power. She was also enrolled in the Spirit Academy. I don't know why she suddenly left alone and then came to Gengxin City. Her behavior pattern is very strange."
"As for that younger brother, we really don't have any news. He hasn't even awakened his spirit, and the Spirit Hall can't find out his background. I guess she brought him along on the way to Gengxin City."
Qian Renxue looked at the letter in her hand and narrowed her eyes. "You mean, the six-year-old A Ke didn't go to the Wuhun Academy where she had already been enrolled, but instead crossed the Tiandou Empire, bypassed the Xingdou Great Forest, and came to Gengxin City in the Xingluo Empire? And then she just happened to faint in front of me when I was fooling those young blacksmiths."
"So I have no choice but to bring them back to the Spirit Hall in order to maintain my image as a kind person?"
"I remember there haven't been any awakened people with full innate soul power in recent years, right?"
The Thorny Pig lowered his head and said, "Yes, Young Master, you asked us to pay special attention to the records of martial soul awakening every year. There are indeed no martial soul awakeners with innate full soul power."
Moreover, A Ke is an emerald swan that has never appeared in the original novel. Isn't this a fierce beast from Dou Er? A time traveler? But if she doesn't practice, why did she spend so much time to come to Gengxin City so far away? To buy ore?
"Oh, there is no record, which means that she is not a spirit awakened by the Spirit Hall. This girl is not a commoner. Interesting. Speaking of which, the inherited spirit of the Tiandou royal family is the swan, right?"
"Ake? Xueke?"
Isn't that the little princess of the Heaven Dou Empire? The one who likes Tang San?
I guess I'm overthinking it. No one should be so abstract, right? If you don't open a small account when you go out, do you think this is a female channel? If you put a piece of cloth on your face, they won't recognize you?
The name A Ke might have been deliberately intended to make her associate it with Xue Ke.
And that younger brother, Artorius, what a cool thing to have that name.
This A-Ke has a strong sense of evil, right? Are they role-playing? Do you have to raise a boyfriend from childhood?
Qian Renxue pondered for a while. Could it be that A Ke thought she was a time traveler and wanted to meet her? But that shouldn't be the case. Qian Ling'er's name was only more famous in Gengxin City. That A Ke clearly came directly from the Wuhun Academy without any hesitation. When she left the Wuhun Academy, she was just on her way to Gengxin City.
It's not that she is suspicious by nature, but there are too many time travelers around her, so she can't help but doubt that it is not so easy to have innate full soul power.
Qian Renxue smiled. She liked interesting things. "Bring them to me and I will personally contact them."
Snake Spear Douluo bowed and left, while Thorny Porpoise Douluo's eyes flashed with colorful light. He suddenly said, "Young Master, Silong from the Blacksmith Association is waiting for you outside. It seems that he has something to discuss with you."
"Let him go back today. My current affairs are more important."
This A Ke is related to her cultivation. We have to test her to find out whether she is a new leek.
The Thorny Porpoise Douluo did not go out either. A mental force appeared directly in Silong's mind, which frightened Silong who was standing at the door of the Wuhun Main Hall. There must be a master inside. If he really had malicious intentions, then he would have no power to resist at all.
Qian Renxue stared at the porcelain in front of her in a daze. She had sent people from the Spirit Hall to the Xingdou Great Forest, the Far North, and the ocean to search for her seventh soul ring. It would be best if she could find the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. If not, she had to make a backup plan. She couldn't hang herself on the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. Although a million-year soul ring was good, she had to find it. Going directly to the core area might not work. It would be too easy to alert the enemy. After all, she had several kinds of divine power on her body. Those beasts would probably run away immediately after sensing her breath. The Silver Dragon King had spatial attributes. Qian Renxue didn't know spatial power, so it was difficult to catch them. If they really ran away and hid somewhere else, she wouldn't be able to find them.
Perhaps Qian Renxue would have to wait until she possessed the power of space before she could capture ferocious beasts as soul rings.
"Your Highness, we have arrived."
At this moment, the voice of a spirit master from the main spirit hall sounded outside the door. Following this voice, Thorny Porpoise Douluo bowed slightly to Qian Renxue and disappeared into the room.
"come in."
A young female soul master walked in with a sister and a brother. The sister had short silver-white hair, while the brother had long black hair. It was obvious at first glance that they were not biological siblings.
Artorius stood behind Xue Ke somewhat stiffly, secretly glancing at Qian Renxue with a hint of obsession in his eyes.
It’s not his fault that he was upset, it’s just that the beauty he saw was so stunning.
Her bright golden hair was braided into three strands and gently placed on one side, falling on her collarbone. From top to bottom, one can see her slender figure and beautiful facial features.
The waisted long skirt trims the figure like a tailor's knife, and the plump buttocks are slightly squeezed by the sofa, bridging the thin shoulders and contrasting with the narrow back, presenting a slightly inward curve, which is graceful and alluring.
The highlight of all this is her pair of dim and beautiful eyes, as if the smoke and waves are gathering, and the past is dead. She doesn't look like a pampered and inexperienced noble lady at all, but more like a melancholy, lonely and fragrant lilac.
Add to that rather dangerous hairstyle, Artorius is instantly neonized, ma'am, you don't want to.
This is a melancholy beauty. A weak and helpless lilac, Sparasi, very good, much better than his stepmother.
Xue Ke was much calmer than Artorius. What noble lady? This woman was very bad. Xue Ke protected Artorius' stupid son behind her. Artorius had great potential, but he had not awakened his martial soul yet, so she had to come in person to deal with his unpleasant personality. After all, she was born with full soul power and had great potential. The Spirit Hall treated geniuses very well, and Qian Renxue would not do anything to her.
If Artorius were to throw a tantrum, he would be chopped up immediately and thrown out to feed the fish. It is better to let him act in his true self, since he is a dull guy anyway.
What's more, she wants to change her routine in this life! She doesn't want to be a licking dog! Xue Ke wants Qian Renxue to coax her! She is a congenital full soul power whose parents are dead. If you don't want it, there are many people who want it! You have to give me a face! Don't you like to act? I will act with you! You are gentle, then I will be domineering!
I want to see how long you can act!
The bad woman Qian Renxue's usual style is to show weakness to the enemy. In the previous life, I was deceived by Qian Renxue's weak appearance!
No, it should be Qian Ling'er now! Look, I'm going to slap you hard in the face!
"Ms. Ako and Mr. Artorius, right?"
Sitting on the sofa, Qian Renxue looked at the two "wanderers" in front of her who she had picked up and brought home with gentle and polite eyes, without a trace of contempt or disdain in her eyes.
"Excuse me, did you guys rest well?"
Artorius stared at Qian Renxue intently. She was so gentle. I cried my heart out! Is this the sister my stepmother talked about?
He answered carefully, fearing to offend the girl in front of him: "We rested well."
But before he could finish his words, Xue Ke interrupted him on the spot.
"Hmph! Stop pretending! You brought us back here on purpose because you were attracted by my talent! I won't be fooled by you! Do nobles like you care about the lives of commoners like us?"
Artorius was so frightened that he almost died. Hey, what are you doing? You said you would take me to meet my parents, why are you taking me to die? I have to go to school!
I treat you as my stepmother, but you treat me as a clown! It's over, I have to send this one away. I didn't expect that he would be reborn just after a few days of good life.
Qian Renxue muttered to herself, "Commoners? Are there any commoners who don't use the Spirit Hall to awaken their spirits? You're acting like that with me. I've exposed your underwear. Don't you know that?"
"Your Highness." No one was visible, but an old voice suddenly sounded in the room, as if reminding someone of something.
The weak and helpless Dingxiang sighed sadly, then spoke softly.
"Palm mouth."
There was a snap.
The loud and crisp slap echoed in the living room.
Xue Ke stood there blankly, the burning pain on her face made her realize what had just happened. She...she was beaten by a Titled Douluo.
She stared at Qian Renxue with a wronged look on her face. This shouldn't be right! Why didn't she pretend? She wasn't like this before! She should have pretended to be weak and let herself be bullied!
"."
That's right! Artorius is the only one around me now! In the past, there were multiple time travelers! She wanted to be a leek, so she pretended to be gentle, not to mention that Artorius hadn't even awakened his spirit, so he had no use value at all. Qian Renxue didn't have the habit of pretending in front of trash.
It’s over. Now I have to send it.
"Are you awake, Miss Ako?"
Qian Renxue uttered Xue Ke's name softly. She stood up and walked in front of Xue Ke, gently lifted Xue Ke's chin, looked down at the swollen right face with interest, and said softly:
"You said I was plotting against you, but what did I bring you? I gave you a room filled with incense, two warm beds, plenty of clean water, rich and delicious food, a maid to help you take a bath, and even two sets of brand new clothes. Although they were not expensive, I felt that I should give you the respect you deserved."
Qian Renxue caressed Xue Ke's swollen cheek lovingly. When she heard the silver-haired girl's gasp of pain, she couldn't help but feel a sadistic pleasure in her heart.
"Why exactly? What did I do wrong to make you be so disrespectful to me?"
Several terrifying auras swept across the entire hall from the darkness all around, and the atmosphere immediately became heavy.
Artorius immediately grabbed Xue Ke's sleeve and told her to shut up. She was too unreliable. He said carefully, "I'm sorry, Your Highness. My stepmother is just a little too sensitive. We encountered many dangers on the way to escape, so she was stressed. Yes! She was stressed! We didn't mean to disrespect you."
"I apologize to you."
Qian Renxue was stunned, and looked at Xue Ke in surprise. Was she following Whitebeard's path of domination? Adopting sons everywhere?
"Mr. Artorius, unlike your stepmother, you are a polite and good child, but you cannot represent Ako."
Xue Ke's face flushed, and her left cheek also turned red instantly. What was Artorius talking about? Her original anger was immediately replaced by embarrassment.
Xue Ke stammered, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
Qian Renxue gently stroked Xue Ke's uninjured side of the face, and it returned to its previous soft appearance.
She pursed her lips and said nothing. Even after hearing Xue Ke's apology, Qian Renxue still did not respond. She just looked at her quietly.
The corners of her eyes were slightly filled with a look of distress, and a blush appeared on their faces. Her posture was elegant, with her chin slightly raised but her fair neck half exposed. Her eyelashes were lightly furrowed as she breathed, and when she was weak, she tried to maintain a bit of stubbornness. She was so delicate and weak that I felt sorry for her.
It was as if the person who had just been beaten was not Xue Ke, but her.
Xue Ke looked a little dazed for a moment, she explained in a low voice: "I didn't mean that, I just a little worried that you are one of those people with bad intentions"
[What the hell! Host, what are you doing! Aren't you a reborn person? The woman in front of you is the one with bad intentions! Wake up! You bastard, you pervert!]
Hearing the system voice in her mind, Xue Ke shuddered suddenly. Damn it, she almost fell into her trap! It's terrible, this woman, I can't look at her! It's easy to be seduced.
It’s bad. I licked her for too long in my previous life and it has become a muscle memory. I want to lick her whenever I see her sad.
