Chapter 335 Arrogance_2

"Haha, when I come back, let's have another match to see who is truly more formidable," Ye Feng said with a smile.

"I guess it will still be a draw, or maybe I'll be slightly stronger than you," Qian Renxue looked at Ye Feng.

"A woman always keeping her man under her thumb isn't good," Ye Feng said, half-jokingly.

"Feng, you're talking nonsense again," Qian Renxue said with exasperation.

And so, they walked through the forest.

Time flew by quickly.

Suddenly, it was already the afternoon.

"It seems the person coming to meet me will be here soon," Ye Feng said.

At the moment, they were in Spirit City.

Suddenly, Qian Renxue sensed a familiar presence.

It was Earl Goose.

This man was also one of Emperor Xue Ye's trump cards.

The reason why the Tiandou Empire could stand as an empire was because it had powerful protectors behind it.

Otherwise, that deranged woman from the Martial Soul Hall wouldn't have possibly allowed herself to infiltrate their ranks.

After all, with the strength that the empire currently displayed, two Level 95 Super Douluos could easily sweep through it all.

If that were really the case, how could there be strife between two great empires?

The Xingluo Empire, after all, had the God of War legacy.

"Time really does fly, doesn't it? If I get the chance, I'd like to come for a proper visit next time," Ye Feng said.

"If the opportunity arises, I definitely will," Qian Renxue assured, looking at Ye Feng.

"Xue'er," Ye Feng suddenly hesitated, looking at Qian Renxue as if he wanted to say something but stopped.

He knew Earl Goose was coming.

But the man was still quite far away.

At this moment, whatever he said would not be overheard by the other party.

He wouldn't be foolish enough to expose Xue'er.

Exposure now would be all disadvantage and no benefit.

After all, he hadn't grown strong enough.

He wasn't yet able to protect her.

"Hmm? What is it, Feng? If you have something to say to me, now you can manage a few words, but once he arrives, you won't have the chance," Qian Renxue sensed the tone in Ye Feng's voice and promptly asked.

At the same time, she felt that Feng must have something to tell her.

"If you want to say something, say it quickly."

Before the other party entered the range where their conversation could be exposed.

A Titled Douluo's senses are exceptionally sharp.

But there is a limit to how far they can extend.

Beyond a certain distance, others can't hear the conversation.

"Xue'er, I promise you that when I return from my next journey, I'll give you your freedom and let you wear the clothes you should be wearing!" Ye Feng said to Qian Renxue, with an expression of absolute determination.

Everything he was doing now was to ensure that Xue'er would gain her freedom.

"Feng..." Qian Renxue hadn't expected Ye Feng to want to say this.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with complex emotions as she looked at him.

For her to have her freedom—that would be an incredibly difficult feat to achieve.

Frankly, she had stopped hoping for it in the short term.

At least, not until she had grown strong enough to inherit the Angel God Position or until that woman stepped down.

Otherwise, it would remain just a wishful thought!

They walked on for a few more minutes.

"Earl Goose, so you've already arrived," a figure appeared ahead, an old man waiting there quietly.

"Your Highness Crown Prince, it seems it's about time," a voice rang out, the wizened tone of Earl Goose speaking.

"Indeed, in the blink of an eye, it's already three or four in the afternoon. Brother Ye Feng, let's call it a day," Qian Renxue swiftly reverted to the demeanor of Crown Prince Xue Qinghe as soon as Earl Goose appeared, adopting a very refined attitude as she addressed Ye Feng.

"Time does pass quickly. Your Highness Crown Prince, let's have another chat if we get the chance," Ye Feng said with a smile.

"Brother Ye Feng, feel free to come to the Tiandou Imperial Palace anytime if you wish. As for this period, I'll also be in Spirit City," Crown Prince Xue Qinghe said.

And so he departed.

Ye Feng went to the training ground where the Tiandou Royal Academy Dou Huang Battle Team was located.

"Your highness Crown Prince, how did the talk go? Is there any chance they could be swayed to our side?"

Earl Goose asked Xue Qinghe.

After all, he was carrying a command.

That was the emperor's secret order.

"After the communication at noon, I found that infiltrating Ye Feng isn't impossible; it just requires some time,"

Xue Qinghe, who was impersonated by Qian Renxue, spoke.

Of course, she knew Feng wasn't interested in the Tiandou Empire at all.

But for now, she could not reveal this.

Because according to Emperor Xue Ye's temperament, once Feng showed no interest in joining the Tiandou Empire, the other party would definitely take the opportunity to eliminate him while he was still not powerful enough.

Of course, Feng wasn't someone so easily eliminated now.

But such a hidden danger would always affect the other party, wouldn't it?

Therefore, she simply told a lie on his behalf.

"Martial Soul Hall has already made their move. If he joins Martial Soul Hall, he will be a formidable enemy to us. Thus, he must choose within a limited time, the Tiandou Empire or Martial Soul Hall,"

Earl Goose spoke.

His old eyes couldn't hide the killing intent within them.

He would certainly not allow an opponent to grow.

This would only invite a catastrophe to their rule.

Especially an opponent like Ye Feng.

It's even more troublesome!!

"Does Father Emperor really want to make an enemy of such a talent?"

Xue Qinghe asked.

"Your highness Crown Prince, if you are to become the ruler of a nation, you must never be soft-hearted,"

Earl Goose said in an educational tone.

Which ruler of a nation is indecisive?

They must do whatever is necessary!

"Actually, between Martial Soul Hall and the Empire, I think if we try a little harder, he most likely will choose the Empire. If we make an enemy of such a person and he escapes later, it would truly be a great disaster for the Empire,"

Xue Qinghe spoke at that moment.

His entire demeanor was one of serious analysis.

"Of course, it would be best if Your Highness Crown Prince has this confidence,"

Earl Goose replied.

"It's still quite possible. After all, he is from our Tiandou Empire and has served within the Empire, so he has feelings for the Empire. Moreover, he has reached the level of a Soul Sage at such a young age, his future achievements are immeasurable. I still advise against pushing such a person to the edge. Even if he isn't interested in the Empire, I believe he isn't interested in Martial Soul Hall either, considering the terms we offered him are no worse than Martial Soul Hall's,"

Xue Qinghe continued to speak.

Earl Goose merely followed him and didn't say much.

The training ground.

"Instructor!"

As everyone saw Ye Feng returning, they greeted him in unison.

"Why aren't you all training? What are you standing around here for?"

As Ye Feng saw them standing at the front of the training ground, a look of confusion flashed in his eyes.

"This must be the instructor from the Tiandou Royal Academy, I am Salas."

A white-haired, gaunt old man emerged from behind the crowd.

The man was dressed in a white robe, with distinct facial features.

"Oh, it's the Platinum Bishop Salas from Martial Soul Hall. What brings the revered bishop to our academy team's training ground?"

Upon seeing Salas, Ye Feng asked with a faint smile.

"I'd like to have a talk with you,"

Salas said.

"Talk? What do we have to talk about?"

Ye Feng had no intention of entertaining him.

After all, this so-called Platinum Bishop was only a Soul Douluo.

He simply didn't hold him in regard.

So why would he entertain a discussion with someone who wanted to talk, especially when they carried such an air of superiority?

"Do you realize that I represent Martial Soul Hall, and our Pope is very interested in you?"

Salas looked at Ye Feng.

Suddenly, a surge of Soul Power began to spread.

It swept directly towards Ye Feng's direction.

"But I'm not interested in her!"

Seeing Salas's arrogant demeanor, indiscriminately releasing Soul Power, Ye Feng immediately countered.

His own Soul Power was rapidly unleashed.

"Boom—"

The clash of Soul Powers.

And then it exploded instantaneously.

Salas was pushed back several steps!

His face turned exceedingly grim.
