Chapter 260 Undercurrent
Chapter 260 Undercurrent
Three days later, under the auspices of the Tiandou clan, Xue Qinghe, as the eldest son, presided over Xue Ye's funeral.
After the royal family introduced Xue Ye's life in the royal cemetery, their burial was announced. The news of Emperor Xue Ye's death quickly spread throughout Tiandou City. Even Ning Fengzhi rushed to the cemetery to witness the emperor's funeral.
"Qinghe, are you a little too impatient?"
After arriving at the Prince's Mansion with Ning Bei, Ning Fengzhi asked Qian Renxue, who was dressed as Xue Qinghe, with a hint of reproach.
Hearing this, Qian Renxue raised her eyebrows slightly and gave Ning Bei an inquiring look.
After thinking for a while, Ning Bei nodded towards Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue then called the father and son to walk towards the secret room. Ning Fengzhi glanced at his son and seeing that he did not explain much, he followed the two of them.
Arriving at the secret room, the little angel turned around and gave Ning Fengzhi a weird smile, then removed his facial disguise, revealing a delicate face with long golden hair fluttering casually.
"Teacher, please don't blame Qinghe for hiding this for so long. No, please don't blame Xue'er for lying."
"you"
Ning Fengzhi's pupils trembled slightly, then he turned to look at his son, and seeing that he didn't show any surprised reaction, he knew that he had already known about this.
Then he remembered that in many of their previous conversations, his son seemed to be hiding something, and this might be one of them.
After figuring this out, Ning Fengzhi put away his nervousness and turned his gaze to the blonde woman in front of him.
"Tell me, who are you?"
"My name is Qian Renxue, the daughter of the former pope of the Spirit Hall, and the inheritor of this generation's six-winged angel spirit."
"What? The Qian family?"
Even though he was mentally prepared for the fact that Qian Renxue's identity was not simple, he was still shocked when he learned her true background. Which good person would send his only heir as an undercover agent?
But now he completely understood what Ning Bei meant when he said that the future Pope of Spirit Hall might have the surname Ning. Regarding this, he just wanted to say to his son, well done!
The surprise on his face gradually faded away, and Ning Fengzhi, who was aware of the relationship between the two, instantly put on a teasing smile.
"Perhaps I should call Miss Qian my daughter-in-law?"
The little angel, who hadn't appreciated the old fox's shocked expression enough, was stunned for a moment, then her cheeks turned red with embarrassment, and she glared at Ning Bei fiercely.
"Cough cough!"
Ning Bei coughed twice and glanced at Ning Fengzhi. The meaning was very clear. He just knew this matter in his heart. Is now the time to tell you this?
"Okay, I won't ask you young people about your little things."
"I probably know what you want to do. Now that the arrow has been shot, there is no turning back. Just go for it. The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect will fully support your plan."
"Thank you very much, Uncle Ning."
With Ning Fengzhi's support, the little angel felt more confident about the next action, and was even full of confidence in the plan to annex Xingluo in the future.
"You need to be more careful about Xue Xing's movements. Although you are the first-in-line heir, it will still be very troublesome if your identity is exposed in the future."
Qian Renxue nodded, not hiding anything.
"Uncle Ning, please rest assured. Xue'er has already learned about Xue Xing's movements in advance. He will probably make trouble on the day of the coronation ceremony. For this reason, he secretly ordered several border defense officers stationed outside to return to Tiandou City."
"Abe and I plan to catch all the ministers who secretly support Avalanche once they are exposed."
"Well, since you can say that, you must have made all the preparations. Then go ahead and do it. At that time, this sect master will bring the two priests, Jian and Gu, to participate in His Majesty's coronation ceremony."
"Then it's Uncle Lao Ning." The two parties were talking happily, and even Ning Bei, the bond between the two parties, couldn't get a word in, which made him secretly think that he was not suitable to be a superior controller.
But it doesn’t matter. The little angel conquers the world, so you just need to conquer the little angel.
It's no wonder that Ning Fengzhi is so concerned about this matter. Just kidding, if this matter is handled properly, not only will the future Pope of the Spirit Hall have the surname Ning, but the emperor of the Tiandou Empire will also have the surname Ning. Even if he says he wants to be the emperor by then, his name will have to be written on the first page of the royal family tree, right?
After discussing with a group of old antiques from the royal family, Xue Qinghe's coronation ceremony was scheduled for three days later, and Bibi Dong would also send Ju Douluo to attend the ceremony.
This has also made Xue Xing and Xue Beng a little uneasy in the past few days. A few Soul Douluos may be able to deal with Xue Qinghe's subordinates, but the forces that came to participate in the coronation ceremony this time are not simple.
Ning Fengzhi, Jian and Gu, the two Titled Douluo of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, and now even Ju Douluo is coming to participate. If any of them gets involved in the royal fight, it will cause variables.
"No, uncle, this is too risky. The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has always been inclined towards Xue Qinghe's side."
Xue Xing paced back and forth in the palace, but the gloom in her eyes could not be dispelled.
"You're right. Although I'm confident that I can push public opinion to our side, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is indeed a problem. I'm going to go to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect now to see if I can invite Yu Yuanzhen to come out. He doesn't have to take action, he just needs to intimidate Jian and Gu."
"As long as the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect does not take action, Xue Qinghe alone will not be able to pose a threat."
Hearing Xue Xing say this, a hint of surprise flashed in Xue Beng's eyes.
"Uncle, let's do it. Sorry for bothering you to make this trip."
"No problem. Everything is for the throne. If Xue Qinghe is allowed to gain a foothold, with his ruthless style of doing things, none of us will have a good ending."
"Hey, if Brother Dugu could come to help, our chances of success would be much greater."
The uncle and nephew smiled bitterly at each other, and they both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes. The behavior of a Titled Douluo could not be influenced by powerful people like them.
If Ning Bei knew what the two were thinking, he would definitely tell them that they were thinking too much.
Xue Xing rushed to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan not far from Tiandou City overnight. Of course, all of this was seen by the figure in the dark.
A moment later, this action reached Qian Renxue's ears.
"Humph, if that old dragon dares to seek death, I don't mind giving him a ride."
With nearly two hands' worth of Titled Douluo standing behind him, the little angel was filled with confidence, and he was not at all afraid of the old dragon from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan.
Ning Bei looked at Qian Renxue with amusement, but in his heart he was looking forward to Yu Yuanzhen's arrival.
"I'd like to see what conditions Xue Xing can offer to impress Yu Yuanzhen. That old dragon has never participated in the struggle between the two empires and the royal family."
Inside the Xing Luo Empire's palace, a man with heterochromatic pupils and a powerful aura looked at his half-kneeling subordinate beside him, a gleam of light in his eyes.
“Is the news true?”
"Your Majesty, it is absolutely true. The spies we arranged in the Tiandou Empire saw the Xue family holding a funeral with their own eyes."
The man pondered for a moment, and a gleam appeared in his eyes.
"Notify all ministers that a court meeting will be held tomorrow and everyone must attend."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
