Chapter 333: If I Get Such a Wife, What More Could I Ask For!_1

This was the place they had specially chosen; it was relatively quiet here and unlikely that others would interfere or disturb them for the time being.

Speaking of which, they hadn't seen each other for quite some time. If it hadn't been for Emperor Xue Ye's notice requiring the crown prince to deliver a message personally, Xue'er would probably have waited until the finals to come!

She guessed then they would only have time for a brief meeting, and anything more would be doubtful.

As for the Tiandou Empire, the royal household's disputes were quite chaotic.

Prince Xue Ye appeared friendly on the surface, but anyone who could become emperor was not to be judged by appearances alone, or one might be easily deceived.

That's why Ye Feng hadn't directly agreed to the conditions from the Tiandou Empire.

Because he didn't want to get involved in these matters.

Or become a puppet of some political power.

He had no desire for such things!

Putting in all the effort just for the fruits of his labor to belong to someone else.

If anything, he would do it himself!

That was why he had Du Gubo establish a power base.

Because the forces created by Du Gubo could be used to his advantage when the time came, to carve a bloody path through the era of strife!

"Feng! It seems like we haven't had a heart-to-heart talk alone in a long time."

At that moment, Xue'er spoke, her beautiful eyes gazing at Ye Feng.

Indeed, it had been quite a while since they had last seen each other.

"Yes, it has been a long time," Ye Feng responded with a nod.

"I was in a bit of a rush this time. I have to hurry back this afternoon to report your thoughts. Otherwise, we could have spent the night together."

Qian Renxue said.

For some reason, being with Ye Feng gave her an inexplicable joy.

It felt so tranquil.

As if there was an inexplicable sense of security about him.

"Report? Then you must tell Emperor Xue Ye, thank him for his kindness, but unfortunately, I, Ye Feng, have no interest in joining the Tiandou Empire. I only want to unify the Douluo Realm. As for titles like Vice Dean and Imperial Master of the Academy—forget those," Ye Feng said with a joking smile.

He might not have looked serious.

But in truth, these were his innermost thoughts.

"Stop it, you're being flippant. But I knew you wouldn't care for those things when Xue Ye asked me to convey his offer. In the future, no matter where you go, I will support your choice," said Xue'er at that moment.

As for unifying the Douluo Realm, she believed Ye Feng was joking.

The Pope had plotted for so long and still hadn't achieved it.

Feng, to accomplish this feat was harder than reaching the heavens.

And the process would be extremely arduous; she didn't want Feng to endure such hardship.

In the future, it'd be best if he did what he enjoyed.

No matter what he chose to do in the future, no matter how outlandish, she, Qian Renxue, would support him.

"Haha, if one has such a wife, what more could a husband ask for?" Ye Feng laughed out loud.

His gaze rested on Xue'er's face.

Although they hadn't crossed that final barrier yet.

The truth was that their relationship was an open secret.

"Feng, what nonsense are you spouting today~"

At this, Xue'er's complexion started to grow rosy, and she looked rather indignant.

All this talk of husband and wife.

Those were matters of the distant future.

Although she yearned for them.

They were hard to achieve.

At least not in the current stage.

"Xue'er, don't worry, one day I will give you your freedom back, without fear of anything," Ye Feng suddenly took Qian Renxue's hand.

He looked at her with a resolute expression.

"Ah?"

Qian Renxue was momentarily stunned.

She couldn't bring herself to meet Ye Feng's eyes.

Because deep down, she truly didn't want the man in front of her to exhaust himself this way.

She knew the only way for her to regain her freedom was to overturn the rule of Martial Soul Hall, her mother's reign.

But of course, that was impossible.

Because she knew all too well how difficult it would be.

"Feng, what do you think about this place? How about we have a spar here?" Qian Renxue asked Ye Feng.

She skillfully changed the subject.

Some issues were too premature to discuss at the moment.

Plus, as they had been walking deeper into the forest, they were also choosing a location.

They had been selecting the place for quite a while.

After all, this was Martial Soul Hall's territory. Only a few knew her true identity, and it was easy for things to go wrong if not careful.

If they were unfortunate enough to be discovered.

It would be fine if it were people from Martial Soul Hall, but if those from the Tiandou Empire saw them, that would be serious indeed.

After all, it wasn't yet time to reveal her identity.

"This place? It seems pretty good," Ye Feng looked around and responded with a slight smile.

Xue'er had chosen a decent spot.

As for the topic they had just been discussing, Ye Feng also knew that Xue'er was purposely avoiding it.

They weren't ready to face it yet; it was too early for such conversations.

To give a practical example, it's like suddenly hearing a friend who got into Tsinghua University claim they will become the world's richest person in the future.

You might think they are capable, indeed,

But becoming the world's richest person—doesn't that seem far-fetched?

After all, only one person can claim that title,

Which means becoming one in a million!

It might be within the realm of possibility, but how minuscule would the chances be?

He imagined that had been Qian Renxue's mindset just then.

Believing that he, Ye Feng, could achieve great things in the future.

But to overthrow the rule of Martial Soul Hall was still an incredibly arduous task.

It wasn't impossible, but it was exceedingly difficult.

"Of course, I'm quite familiar with this place."
