"Pfft."
Qian Renxue looked at Xu Ran's expression, couldn't help but laugh out loud, then quickly covered her mouth, realizing that such behavior was inelegant.
Xu Ran ran around all day, flirting here and there, and now the advanced Soul Master academy tournament had summoned all the women he'd entangled with.
"This is going to be interesting, right, Brother Xu?" Qian Renxue blinked and said with an implicit meaning.
These past few days were indeed lively around Xu Ran.
First was that insanely powerful woman, ranting about wanting to kill her, a crazy lady. And now, the advanced Soul Master academy competition had gathered so many wildflowers drawn in by Xu Ran at once.
Of course, there was something even more thrilling—Bi Bidong was currently standing right behind Xu Ran, massaging his shoulders, merely a meter away from Qian Renxue. If Qian Renxue knew about this, she would probably be scared enough to jump to her feet.
This was truly a thrill!
However, Qian Renxue and Bi Bidong had never gotten along; otherwise, Bi Bidong wouldn't have sent Qian Renxue to this godforsaken place in The Empire. Although Bi Bidong had an epiphany and realized the harm she'd done to Qian Renxue, Qian Renxue still held no affection for Bi Bidong, even feeling a strong sense of estrangement.
Otherwise, given the nature of their relationship and how close they were, even with Bi Bidong's skill at hiding, signs would inevitably show.
It was precisely because their relationship was so poor that Qian Renxue hadn't visited Bi Bidong in Spirit City for a long time. They were strangers to each other, so even with Bi Bidong so close, Qian Renxue did not recognize her.
Later, Qian Renxue would even flirt with Xu Ran in front of Bi Bidong, speak sweet nothings at night, sit together until dawn.
And all this would be witnessed by Bi Bidong herself.
All of this was almost too much for Xu Ran.
But no matter how outrageous Qian Renxue's actions were, Bi Bidong would definitely not say anything, let alone dare to. Otherwise, she would reveal her past with Xu Ran, and things would get even more complicated.
This was Xu Ran's strategy.
Once caught in Xu Ran's trap, it was nearly impossible for Bi Bidong to escape because Xu Ran had trapped her heart.
When the time came, Bi Bidong would have complicated feelings. Want to kill Xu Ran? Impossible, unless she disregarded the happiness of Qian Renxue, which is unlikely, right?
With Bi Bidong's character, she would definitely not do such a thing.
Bi Bidong had a sharp tongue but a soft heart, and she had already hurt Qian Renxue deeply before; now, she kept thinking of how to make amends. To kill Xu Ran, Qian Renxue's lover, and completely break their relationship?
Bi Bidong would definitely not do that.
When the time came, Xu Ran would naturally be able to enter Martial Soul Hall smoothly, even possibly gain the support of Qian Dao Liu.
For Qian Dao Liu, Qian Renxue was the most important. Even when Bi Bidong started abusing her power within Martial Soul Hall, he didn't care. In his heart, Qian Renxue's ascension to godhood was what mattered most.
And that was normal; after Qian Xun Ji's death, the Qian Family bloodline was effectively cut off.
Although Qian Renxue was also from the Qian Family, she was a woman after all, and her offspring would bear the surname Xu, not Qian. Perhaps from that moment on, his concern for Martial Soul Hall wasn't that great anymore; instead, he focused all his efforts on helping Qian Renxue ascend to godhood.
In such a scenario, once Xu Ran entered Martial Soul Hall, even without Bi Bidong's support, he could quickly infiltrate the high ranks of Martial Soul Hall. He would effortlessly crush Tang San and Yu Xiaogang.
The physical hammering was painful, but for the two of them, the blow to their mental state was the most fatal.
After all, they both wanted to use the power of the Martial Soul Hall to deal with him, only to find it was all in vain, and even the Martial Soul Hall had fallen into his, Xu Ran's, hands, that feeling indeed could make one's mentality explode.
And it was this feeling of toying with them like a cat with a mouse that was Xu Ran's source of joy.
These two Little Skimps, thinking they could compete with him, basically had no chance. Unless each of them awakened a System.
Otherwise, everything they had: status, power, women, would be taken and trampled by him.
Now, the only things related to them were nothing more than a Bi Bidong and a Poseissi, and it seemed there was nothing else.
Bi Bidong was almost unable to escape his palm, as for Poseissi, that didn't seem hard either. Tang San, Tang Chen performing together, must be wonderful, not to mention Tang Xiao, tsk tsk...
"Xu Ran, what are you thinking about? You haven't answered my question yet!" Qian Renxue nudged Xu Ran with her foot, complaining a bit.
"Cough cough, the young talents from this generation of the Tiandou Empire are quite good, the showdown this time is certainly going to be interesting, very interesting," Xu Ran pulled his thoughts back, saying helplessly. Isn't it interesting? It's basically all his wives fighting each other, of course it's interesting.
"Damn Xu Ran, completely disregarding me."
"Daring to be all lovey-dovey with Xue'er right in front of me, I'm so angry."
Bi Bidong was annoyed in her heart, and the hands that were massaging Xu Ran's shoulders couldn't help but apply more force, warning him.
She had now completely realized that the relationship between Xu Ran and Qian Renxue was definitely no ordinary one; they looked like a couple flirting with each other. Although on the surface, it seemed very proper, maintaining closeness, their feet were touching back and forth, and occasionally, when others were not paying attention, Xu Ran even made his moves on Qian Renxue.
And Xue'er seemed to have no intention of resisting, completely submissive to his advances.
Under such circumstances, if she still believed Xu Ran's words, that there was a normal relationship between him and Xue'er, then she might as well believe in ghosts.
Does she, Bi Bidong, look like a three-year-old kid?
Making eyes at each other, touching here and there, how open would they have to be to call that relationship ordinary?
She knew Qian Renxue's character very well, even more proud and arrogant than her. If it wasn't someone Qian Renxue truly had feelings for, she would never be so wanton. If Qian Renxue had always been like this... she would have exposed herself a long time ago.
Just to satisfy Xu Ran's lust, she was willing to risk exposing herself and flirt openly with him, even letting him touch her all over. That shameless Xu Ran even took advantage of the shield on the grandstand to slip his hand into Xue'er's clothes, the unblushing cad. The areas his hands were milling about, well, she wasn't a virgin, so she knew exactly what was going on.
It was just short of giving her a live performance.
And this also broadened her horizons: so this was what Xue'er was like!
But although she was extremely annoyed, she couldn't show it.
She was just a servant by Xu Ran's side right now; showing dissatisfaction with Xu Ran could lead to suspicion, and if her identity were to be exposed, she'd never make it out of Spirit City.
"Damn Xu Ran, once I regain my strength, I'll chop off your hands and see how you'll grope then," Bi Bidong gritted her teeth with hatred. Those hands of Xu Ran not only pinched her but now also Xue'er. Is Xu Ran a beast?
She would not let off Xu Ran, this brute!
