Chapitre 312: Chapter 310: Men, Not a Single Good One_1

Crown Prince's Mansion.

Qian Renxue was handling a stack of documents related to the affairs of the Tiandou Empire. Since Emperor Xue Ye's illness had become more severe, most of the empire's affairs needed to be processed by Qian Renxue.

If it had been before, Qian Renxue would definitely have seized this opportunity to quickly infiltrate the power of the Martial Soul Hall into the Tiandou Empire and expel the stubborn loyalists from the core circle of power.

But now, as she looked at the content of the documents, she felt nothing but boredom.

These days, with Xu Ran's departure, she found no joy in anything she did, and his image would involuntarily appear in her mind. This feeling almost drove her insane.

She was Qian Renxue! The Young Master of the Spirit Hall! The Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire! With such a noble identity, how could she possibly think about a man like that? And a man with such an abnormal sexual orientation at that!

Yet the more she tried to suppress her inner thoughts, the more that persistent idea troubled her.

No matter what she did, Xu Ran's image would pop into her mind.

Especially when Xu Ran taught her swordsmanship and behaved naughtily behind her back. As the crown prince of a nation, who would dare to defy her at ordinary times? Only Xu Ran dared to do so, and he did it brazenly.

This made her even more uncomfortable.

As the Young Master of the Spirit Hall, Qian Renxue, how could she have any weaknesses?

"Young Master."

"Xu Ran has returned to Tiandou City these past two days, and he is now headed this way. Should we eliminate him? If we don't act now, I'm afraid it might be too late."

"Moreover, Xu Ran has been involved with quite a few women upon his return to Tiandou City. He even started hooking up with the granddaughter of Dugu Bo and the heir of the Nine-Heart Begonia Sect," Ci Tun Dou Luo said. He frowned, looking at Qian Renxue, understanding what her recent behavior signified.

Qian Renxue had developed romantic feelings!

Women, after all, are women, and when it comes to handling affairs, they are easily swayed by emotions. If it were according to Qian Renxue's usual methods, they would've already returned to Spirit City with Xu Ran's head.

Now, with Qian Renxue's emotions involved, it was even more impossible to spare Xu Ran. At this critical juncture of the Spirit Hall's millennium-long plans, Qian Renxue was the future Spirit Hall Pope, and she absolutely could not afford to be affectionate towards anyone.

"Go and make the preparations. We'll act in these next few days." Qian Renxue's delicate body shuddered, then she steeled her heart and said.

"Remember to spare his life. We'll bring him back to Spirit City and decide what to do then."

Xu Ran left Tiandou City without saying a word, and now that he's back, instead of coming to assist her with inter-state affairs, all he knows is how to indulge in women. Thinking about this made her heart seethe with anger.

Xu Ran possessed such a terrifying talent, unparalleled in the world, yet he displayed no great ambition and only sought pleasure, neglecting his duties. Shouldn't his first action upon returning to Tiandou City be to seek her out?

"Yes. Then, Young Master, I shall take my leave," Ci Tun Dou Luo nodded, his heart already set on killing. For the great cause of the Spirit Hall, he would not allow a potential threat to remain in this world.

Xu Ran, with such dangerous talent and even causing the young master to harbor feelings—how could he be allowed to live?

A few more days, and if the young master truly falls for him, it would be disastrous.

After all, having been a guard by Qian Renxue's side for so many years, he was very familiar with her character. If Qian Renxue truly fell in love with Xu Ran, she would undoubtedly comply with everything he wanted. By then, not only would Qian Renxue no longer be able to secretly perform her duties as the crown prince, but it's also possible that she would never leave Xu Ran's side, disastrously affecting greater matters.

"Wait... never mind, you can leave."

Seeing Ci Tun Dou Luo about to leave, Qian Renxue reached out to stop him. Although Xu Ran was annoying, she didn't want him to encounter any mishaps. She had only made that decision earlier in a moment of anger after hearing about Xu Ran fooling around with another woman.

But since the words were already said, Qian Renxue couldn't easily take them back.

"Hmph, if you died, it would serve you right. Who told you to flirt with girls all the time? Even if you don't die by my hand, sooner or later you will die because of your philandering ways," Qian Renxue snorted with disdain. Just thinking about what Ci Tun had said earlier — that Xu Ran went off to fool around with other girls as soon as he returned — made her furious.

If Xu Ran had left for some important business, that would be one thing, but he couldn't even stay out of trouble after coming back.

He kept saying he wanted to discuss the affairs between the two countries with her, but she hardly ever saw him.

Thinking about all this, Qian Renxue grew angrier and angrier.

"Brother Xue, long time no see," Xu Ran, with the Token of the Crown Prince's Mansion, entered Qian Renxue's territory without any obstructions and quickly spotted the stern-faced "Qian Renxue."

At this time, Qian Renxue still wore the face of Qing He, looking extremely dignified and icy.

Seeing this, Xu Ran quickly understood what was going on.

Qian Renxue was becoming more and more like a woman now. Was it because he hadn't sought her out for so many days?

"Brother Xu, you're here?" When Qian Renxue saw Xu Ran, the chill on her face did not subside, but she greeted him politely due to their respective identities.

In the past, Qian Renxue would have been conscious of maintaining Qing He's image and controlled her emotions, but now she couldn't hold them back at all.

In the end, there was still a trace of sourness in her heart.

At times, she wished she could tear off the mask on her face and let Xu Ran know her true identity. She had great confidence in her own appearance because, since she was young, she had been bathed in the glory of Angelic Power, which made her look and aura far superior to others.

As long as she revealed her true face, she would definitely captivate Xu Ran completely. Then she could relish the chase before dumping him harshly. Xu Ran, this scumbag, had bullied who knows how many girls. When the time came...

"Brother Xue, you don't look too well today. Did the Crown Princess Consort not attend to you well last night?" Xu Ran gave Qian Renxue a knowing smile.

"No." Hearing Xu Ran's words, Qian Renxue became even more irritated. That guy Xu Ran, as expected, was still so frivolous, always speaking of such matters.

Not just Xu Ran, but men in general, not one of them was a good thing.

However, since impersonating Qing He, she indeed hadn't been able to provide anything to those women. Moreover, she hadn't stepped into their chambers for a long time.

They were all women; what else could she do?

But to conceal her identity, she had married the elite of the Spirit Hall as her imperial concubines, so to outsiders, it appeared as though Qing He had neglected the Crown Princess Consort and favored other women. This wouldn't attract too much attention since it was the Crown Prince's own business whom he favored.

However, that guy Xu Ran had better not take an interest in the concubines of her Crown Prince's Mansion.

If he dared harbor such evil intentions, even if she wanted to keep him around, she would decisively eliminate him. But hopefully, Xu Ran hadn't fallen to such desperate straits.
