Chapter 166: Marry Me

Watching the flames attacking him, under Hei San's feet, the second soul ring flickered.

The second soul skill, Barbaric Bear Palm.

A giant bear paw, several meters in size, condensed from soul power.

Slapped towards the surging flames.

Bang!

Unfortunately, just a few bursts, Hei San's second soul skill shattered several fire snakes.

There were still fire snakes constantly rotating, forcing towards him.

"Not good! Hei Si, dodge quickly!" Hei San's eyes were filled with flames, flashing with fear.

"How is this possible! Is this a Soul Expert Soul Master's soul skill?!" Hei Si had some doubts about life.

There was simply no way to avoid it!

"My god! Is this still a Soul Expert Soul Master?! Ye Qiu's soul skill almost covered the entire Soul Fighting Arena!"

The host also looked shocked at the scene.

In the audience, the crowd kept cheering and shouting for Ye Qiu.

All they could see were the crazily spinning fire snakes and flames.

Even Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, who had already finished their soul fight, were staring blankly at the scene in the waiting room.

Not to mention Ning Rongrong standing behind Ye Qiu.

Her cyan eyes had lost focus.

Only Ye Qiu's tall figure remained.

And the fiery red, shocking background.

On the Soul Fighting Arena

, Hei San and Hei Si found themselves unable to evade, continuously retreating.

Until there was nowhere to retreat.

"After this attack, his soul power is definitely going to be depleted! We have to fight it out! Hei Si, stand behind me!" Hei San gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.

"Got it, big brother!"

Hei Si quickly stood behind Hei San, their figures overlapping like shadows.

Under Hei San's feet, the first and third soul rings lit up.

First soul skill, Iron Palm Kill!

Third soul skill, Great Buddha Palm!

"Roar!"

With Hei San's angry roar, his palms continued to enlarge.

As large as giant eagle wings, blocking in front of himself and Hei Si.

Bang bang bang!

The spiral-shaped fire snakes kept attacking, wave after wave.

After blocking several waves, Hei San was already bleeding from his mouth and nose.

Both brothers had suffered varying degrees of burns.

Bang!

A muffled sound.

In the end, the two couldn't withstand Ye Qiu's onslaught of explosions.

They were directly blasted off the Soul Fighting Arena!

"Team Autumn Glory, Ye Qiu!..."

Around the audience seats, there was a deafening cheer and shout.

"It's so shocking! Let's congratulate Team Autumn Glory for winning this two-on-two Soul Fight despite such a huge difference in soul power!"

In the host's exciting words, amidst the cheers of the crowd.

Ning Rongrong rushed over and hugged Ye Qiu, acting like an excited child, bouncing and jumping around Ye Qiu.

"Ah! Ye Qiu, you're really amazing!"

"Hehe. Alright, let's leave first!"

Ye Qiu's face didn't look good either, he had overacted a bit, and his soul power was seriously depleted.

"Okay! Let's go find Xiao Wu and the others."

Ning Rongrong linked her arm with Ye Qiu's and walked towards the waiting room.

In the waiting room, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing had been waiting here for a long time.

"Xiao Qiu, are you okay?"

Xiao Wu looked at him with some concern as she approached and supported him.

"Don't worry, I've already asked him, Ye Qiu just consumed too much soul power!"

Ning Rongrong looked at him with a smile, her eyes full of joy, looking so fond of him!

"Ye Qiu, how did you get my third soul skill? Is it the effect of your soul skill?"

Zhu Zhuqing looked at him strangely, she naturally recognized her own soul skill.

"That's right! I have a soul skill that can replicate other people's soul skills!" Ye Qiu nodded.

Zhu Zhuqing's soul skill was also copied during her Soul Fight.

Looking at Ye Qiu with some astonishment, Zhu Zhuqing could only sigh at Ye Qiu's endless means.

While they were engaged in the two-on-two Soul Fight, Xiao Wu's solo Soul Fight had already ended.

They didn't need to stay here for too long.

"Alright, let's settle our points first, then I'll send you back to Shrek!"

"Yeah!" The three girls nodded simultaneously.

During the afternoon shopping, Ye Qiu had already told them.

They would be returning to the Heaven Dou Empire tonight.

So, they didn't linger here for too long.

After leaving the Soul Fighting Arena, they accompanied Ye Qiu for a walk towards the direction of Shrek Academy.

At the entrance of Shrek Academy.

Ye Qiu was receiving the baptism from Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu.

On both sides of his cheeks, leaving some moisture and fragrance.

"Zhuqing~ aren't you coming?"

In the spirit of treating everyone equally, Ye Qiu looked towards the somewhat hesitant Zhu Zhuqing.

There was a hint of playfulness on his face.

The Zhu Zhuqing who used to force him was not like this!

Seeing Ye Qiu opening his arms towards her, Zhu Zhuqing naturally wanted to throw herself into them.

But the gaze of Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu beside her made her a little uncomfortable.

Taking a deep breath, she walked up to Ye Qiu.

Her face was bright red, her cherry lips slightly raised, tiptoeing lightly, she intended to kiss his cheek.

"Ah~"

Ye Qiu chuckled lightly, then directly hugged her, lowered his head and sealed her soft lips with his, lightly tapping against her teeth.

Zhu Zhuqing's hands rested on Ye Qiu's shoulders.

Her face seemed to be blushing like someone who had drank wine, her eyelashes fluttering, her eyes shimmering with moisture, as she responded awkwardly, tilting her head up.

Slowly, her entire body leaned against Ye Qiu's.

When their lips parted.

There were shimmering traces at the corners of Zhu Zhuqing's mouth.

"Ye Qiu, you're biased! I, I also want..." Ning Rongrong watched this scene, although she felt shy.

However, she never minded getting close to Ye Qiu.

"Alright, alright, it's getting late, maybe next time!" Holding up the pretty face that leaned close, he lightly tasted her crimson lips.

"T-then, don't forget about helping me grow up!" Ning Rongrong hugged herself, looking charmingly at him.

"Ah, I got it!" Ye Qiu awkwardly agreed.

"Alright, that's it for now! Xiao Wu, take care of yourselves!"

"Mm!"

After exchanging a glance with Xiao Wu, and seeing her nod, an invisible whirlpool appeared, and Ye Qiu's figure began to distort, then disappeared in front of the three girls.

"Zhuqing~ how do you feel?" Xiao Wu hooked her arm around Zhu Zhuqing's, her tone carrying a teasing meaning.

Blushing, Zhu Zhuqing pursed her lips, her eyes showing a mix of shyness and joy.

Her voice was gentle and soft.

"It feels great."

...

As the three girls finished their banter and were about to walk into Shrek Academy.

Meanwhile.

Ye Qiu had already arrived in the secret room of the Prince's Mansion.

It was as quiet and dim as usual.

He sat down at the table, waiting for Qian Renxue's arrival.

...

In the Prince's study.

Having just finished a day of political affairs, Xue Qinghe stretched lazily.

Slightly tilting his head.

He picked up a book that had been lying next to him for a long time— "Yin Yang Heart Sutra".

There seemed to be something sandwiched inside.

He gently turned the pages, a faint elegant fragrance emanating from it.

Within this page, there was a specimen of a Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, preserved by him.

A slight satisfaction played on his lips.

After flipping through a few pages, his expression turned cold and majestic.

Inside were several sheets of paper filled with Ye Qiu's name.

Picking up the latest intelligence he had collected, he looked at Ye Qiu's recent actions in Suotuo City.

His face couldn't help but show some anger.

"Hmph! This bastard, with such talent, why waste time looking for women!"

Snap!

He forcefully closed the book, putting it into his own soul device.

Then, he looked at the lacquer box sent over from the Martial Soul Palace today.

Slowly opening it.

What came into view was a soul bone.

Entirely purple, with arcs of electricity lingering on it, constantly flickering.

Judging from its intactness, it was at least seventy thousand years old.

"A right arm bone from a seventy-five-thousand-year-old Thunder Beast from the Death Canyon, he really got lucky!" Xue Qinghe sneered, silently putting away the lacquer box.

"If there's nothing else, don't disturb me!"

"I understand, young master!"

He ordered to the two corners of the room.

Standing up, he opened the secret door and walked into the secret room.

Walking in the passage, his body slowly emitted a golden light.

His golden hair gradually lengthened and became silky.

His face and features softened slowly.

His skin became fair as snow, smooth and delicate.

Where his body should be, where it should be plump, everything gradually returned to its original state.

He still wore a golden high-collar palace dress, simple and fitted.

Wrapped around his well-proportioned figure, with smooth lines and a noble temperament, giving people an unreachable feeling.

Before entering the secret room, Qian Renxue sensed a familiar aura inside.

A faint joy flashed in her golden eyes.

Her steps became lighter and faster.

Entering the secret room, the dim environment seemed to brighten up quite a bit because of her.

Her eyes met Ye Qiu's directly.

The slight emotions inside were quickly hidden.

"Why do you have time to come back? Don't you want to spend more time with the women you've newly seduced?"

Her voice was cold, devoid of any emotion.

Sitting across from him, she even showed a hint of disdain in her eyes.

After going out for a while, he added two more women by his side.

"What new seduction? I've known them for a long time!" Ye Qiu poured her a cup of tea helplessly.

He didn't find it strange that Qian Renxue knew some of his affairs.

With her status and identity, there were eyes and ears everywhere.

"Is that so? It seems that I have underestimated your charm all along!" Qian Renxue tugged at the corner of her mouth, giving him a cold glance.

Deep down, she resented.

Just from the women she knew, there were already no fewer than four!

"Hehe." Ye Qiu chuckled awkwardly, picking up the tea on the table and taking a sip.

Looking at his smiling face, Qian Renxue clenched her fists tightly under the table.

A slight sneer appeared on her lips.

"You're still laughing? It seems you're quite pleased with yourself. I wonder what you think of Princess Xue Ke, my sister?"

"Cough cough!"

Just as he was about to take a sip of tea, hearing Qian Renxue's mocking tone, he choked and even spurted out some tea.

His face turned red.

"What are you talking about? I have no interest in Xue Ke! I'm not that kind of person!"

"Pfft!"

Qian Renxue burst into laughter at Ye Qiu's words.

Her eyes looked at him strangely, showing a disdainful smile.

"You're not that kind of person? Where do you get the face to say that?"

"..."

Ye Qiu was speechless for a moment, wiping the tea from his mouth.

"Anyway, we have mutual feelings!"

"Mutual feelings?" Qian Renxue's hand holding the teacup tightened, and the light in her eyes dimmed a bit.

"By the way, isn't this topic a bit too far-fetched?" Ye Qiu looked at her strangely.

"Hmph! I just can't stand people like you who are obsessed with wine and women!" Qian Renxue's eyes met Ye Qiu's gaze strangely, feeling a bit flustered, afraid of being seen through her thoughts.

With a cold snort, she lowered her head and took a sip of tea.

Adjusting her breathing rhythm secretly.

"By the way, has the pillars you forged for me been completed?"

Ending the previous topic, Ye Qiu asked about his own business again.

"You came back just for this?"

"What do you take me for? Besides coming to me for business, what else?"

Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment, feeling a surge of unnamed anger inside.

She glared fiercely at Ye Qiu, wishing she could scratch him.

This jerk!

"Um, later we can also cultivate together. I'm about to break through level thirty-four!"

"You!"

Hearing his response, Qian Renxue's breath stagnated, her eyes widened in disbelief.

She bit her lip lightly, forcing herself to resist the impulse to take out the Holy Sword and chop him!

Cultivate, cultivate!

Who cares about cultivating tonight!

"Don't worry, after we finish this busy period, we should have no problem with our daily cultivation. It won't take too long."

Ye Qiu looked at her angrily, thinking she was anxious about practicing the Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

He added another sentence.

"Hmph! I hope what you said is true!"

Hearing Ye Qiu's words, Qian Renxue's dissatisfaction dissipated somewhat.

She took out a ring from her pocket.

Playing with it between her fingers.

Looking at Ye Qiu with some curiosity in her eyes.

"I can give you the thing, but I'm curious about what did you take from Tang Hao?"

"Secret!"

"Secret? Another secret!" Qian Renxue held the ring in her palm.

Her eyebrows furrowed, looking at him displeased.

She didn't understand why Ye Qiu always had so many things he couldn't tell her.

Does he think she will harm him?

Fortunately, she had anticipated this answer.

What she mentioned just now wasn't just those iron pillars that he needed for some unknown reason.

That right arm bone was also included.

Qian Renxue glanced lightly at Ye Qiu, then forcefully tossed the soul device in her hand to him.

The speed of Ye Qiu's response made her happy.

But the content of his answer was something she didn't like!

Since that was the case, she would have kept that soul bone for herself for a while!

"Thank you!"

Ye Qiu checked the contents of the ring, confirmed that there were no problems, and then put it into his Divine Might Space.

"If you want to thank me, then spend more time with me to cultivate! Hmph!"

With an unfriendly glance at Ye Qiu, she picked up the tea in her hand and drank it all at once.

"I'll try my best. So, if there's nothing else, shall we start cultivating now?"

Ye Qiu pointed to the bed against the wall, seeking her opinion.

"Fine." Ye Qiu's business-like attitude made Qian Renxue lose some interest.

She stood up and sat cross-legged on the bed.

Ye Qiu followed suit.

He sat behind her, close to her back.

Smelling the fragrance emanating from Ye Qiu's body, Qian Renxue's mood also calmed down a lot.

Cooperating with Ye Qiu, they interlocked their fingers together.

But after a while, her brows furrowed again.

She smelled other scents on Ye Qiu's body, besides Ning Rongrong's, there were two unfamiliar scents.

For some reason, this feeling made her uncomfortable, even disgusted, more than what she saw in the intelligence reports!

"We can start now!"

Ye Qiu was ready, but Qian Renxue withdrew her hand.

"No need, I'm not in the mood today!"

"What's wrong?" Feeling the touch behind him disappear, Ye Qiu turned his head to look at her strangely.

"It's nothing, just feeling a bit tired!" Qian Renxue stood up and paced forward, feeling a little annoyed.

But in her mind, she couldn't help but recall.

Before, her grandfather's policy of binding this guy and the Qian Family together!

After a moment of contemplation, she turned back to Ye Qiu.

"Do you remember I mentioned a condition to you before?"

"Of course! Have you made up your mind?"

Under Ye Qiu's curious gaze, Qian Renxue pursed her lips, seeming to still be hesitating about something. Under the illumination of the Night Pearl above, her face showed a slight blush.

Making her, who was already beautiful, even more unattainable.

She lightly bit her red lips, as if she had made up her mind.

Her eyes became sharp, staring straight at Ye Qiu.

Pointing her finger, her voice rang out with a hint of dominance throughout the entire secret room.

"I want you!"

"..."

Ye Qiu stared at her dumbfoundedly, waiting for her continuation.

"Hmm?"

After a moment of silence, Ye Qiu's face gradually became weird, staring blankly at Qian Renxue who was still pointing at him.

"Is that it?!"

"Hmm! I'm done!"

Qian Renxue nodded decisively.

"..."

Looking at Ye Qiu's bewildered expression, she walked up to him again, bent down, and faced him.

She emphasized again.

"You heard me right, I want you to dump them all, and then marry me!"
