Translator: 549690339

Xu Sheng's face slowly moved closer to Qing He, just millimeters away, already able to clearly hear the latter's heart pounding violently.

Xu Sheng pursed his lips, staring into Qing He's eyes filled with a thick veil of ambiguity, "What do I want to do? Princess Qinghe, you don't really know nothing, do you?"

Watching Xu Sheng speaking in front of her with a continuous stream of warm breath, Qing He's face had long lost its composure, now climbing with colors of panic. The former's fiery gaze made her involuntarily lower her head, speaking in an annoyed tone, "Xu... Xu Sheng, isn't this a bit too much... I... we are both men."

The palms of her hands placed beside her legs clenched tightly, even leaving a faint layer of pinch marks on her skin...

Dammit, being so close, I can't think straight in front of this Xu Sheng!

And what exactly am I doing? Why, after having disguised as a man for so long, am I experiencing such intense emotional reactions to this man?

Xu Sheng's eyes twinkled, as he slowly stretched out his finger to lift Qing He's delicate chin, saying suavely, "Oh? A man, you say?"

With her chin forcefully lifted, Qing He's face felt as hot as a boiling pan, especially since she faintly felt her Soul Power uncontrollably becoming chaotic...

In Xu Sheng's view, a faint purplish light flashed across Qing He's forehead, then suddenly dimmed...

The next moment, without the influence of her head soul bones, the image Qing He had created for herself with the soul bone collapsed instantly...

A shade of pale golden hair, irresistibly captivating, was exposed, pouring down like a golden waterfall from her head, soft, enchanting, filled with a cold aloofness, a charm one would willingly indulge in.

Dressed in a light yellow ladies' robe, perfectly outlining her enviable figure...

At first glance, Ren Xue's pair of clear, bright brown eyes were like exquisite works of art, and her fair cheeks flushed slightly, her thin lips tempting like roses.

However, she had no idea that her soul bone had already failed due to the turmoil of emotions at the bottom of her heart!

Amazement flickered through Xu Sheng's eyes; Ren Xue's stunning appearance now was simply inviting...

He suddenly coughed a few times, the words he had been brewing getting stuck because of Ren Xue's perfect beauty...

Xu Sheng's awkward behavior instantly snapped Ren Xue, who had been mesmerized, back to reality. She blinked her brown pupils, the gentle shyness on her face disappearing in an instant, her expression cooling down again...

The cornered Ren Xue swept a cold glance at Xu Sheng and said slowly, "Xu Sheng... it's about enough, if you're joking, let me out first."

Xu Sheng slowly let go of her and took a few steps back...

He knew it was no use to keep stimulating Ren Xue like this, but fortunately, he had achieved his purpose, Ren Xue's soul bone had failed!

Ren Xue walked out silently from the corner of the door...

When Ren Xue slowly took her seat, her eyes just happened to fall on her own mirror image—a stranger, even to herself—she knew she was completely exposed.

Ren Xue took a new measure of Xu Sheng, pondering silently, "This man, the reason he did that, was to make my emotions fluctuate and deactivate my soul bone? Why does he know so clearly?"

Apart from her grandfather, Qian Dao Liu, and that woman, nobody else knew about her soul bone!

Xu Sheng's lips curled up at the corner as he sat down opposite Ren Xue, saying lightly, "Princess Qinghe? Don't you want to explain something?"

Ren Xue glanced at him, "What do you want me to explain? Or rather, even if I explain, would you believe it?"

Then her gaze sharpened, "However, who exactly are you? Why do you know how to deactivate my head soul bones?"

Since it has already been exposed, there is no point in hiding it anymore!

Now, I must figure out who exactly is this person?

Looking at Qian Renxue's wary gaze, Xu Sheng said indifferently, "Don't worry, I am not your enemy. On the contrary, we are both the same kind of people."

Qian Renxue's expression turned much gloomier. Xu Sheng had said so much, but he still hadn't revealed any useful information about himself!

Damn, this guy is really annoying!

Xu Sheng picked up the slightly cool cup of tea unhurriedly and said leisurely, "There's no harm in telling you, I am a disciple that your mother, Bi Bidong, took in three years ago."

"That's how I know your name, soul bone, and even your Martial Soul!"

Based on his memories from before he crossed over, he only knew that Qian Renxue's Martial Soul was the Seraph, that she was impersonating Xue Qinghe; beyond that, he knew nothing else.

Fortunately, before he left, Bi Bidong did not keep anything from him and told him all of Qian Renxue's information.

Perhaps she guessed that because of his own Martial Soul, he would likely come into contact with Qian Renxue?

Qian Renxue suddenly realized, her tone icy, "So that's how it is. What about that woman? It all makes sense now!"

She didn't expect that woman to even share her own information with this man, which could only mean that the latter played a very important role within the Martial Soul Hall!

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm the anger in her heart because of that woman...

"Then what exactly is the deal with your Martial Soul? It has caused a strong resonance with my Martial Soul both three years ago and today!"

This was Qian Renxue's last question at the bottom of her heart!

Xu Sheng shook his head silently, "I'm not clear about that either. Perhaps we can only find out the reason by releasing our Martial Souls."

He truly did not know what this Martial Soul Resonance was all about; if he had, he might have sought out Qian Renxue three years ago.

Qian Renxue turned her head to glance around, then narrowed her eyes and took out a circular soul tool from her storage soul tool.

This was what Qian Dao Liu had specifically instructed her to take with her when she left the Martial Soul Hall.

Qian Renxue pressed the small triangle on the circular soul tool and explained to Xu Sheng, "If we're just releasing our Martial Souls, then this Shielding Soul Guidance Device will suffice."

She was now eager to understand the situation, even if it might reveal her identity!

The circular soul tool began to emit visible ripples, and in an instant, it shielded all soul power fluctuations in the vicinity!

Seeing this, Xu Sheng was somewhat surprised, thinking to himself, "A Shielding Type Soul Guidance Device? Qian Renxue carries this thing with her? Is it for shielding soul power fluctuations during cultivation?"

After all, in this era, soul tools had not yet developed to the point of widespread use. Those who could own them were none other than the Pope of the Martial Soul Hall and the Titled Douluos at the peak of the Continent.

"Xu Sheng, please release your Martial Soul with me now," Qian Renxue stood up from the chair, her words carrying a faint plea...
