“Oh dear, what a mess this is!”
Outside the Heavenly Dou Temple, a handsome little boy with golden rabbit ears sat on the curb, his fair face showing a faint trace of melancholy.
He had black hair and was taller than other children his age.
What’s most striking about him are his big eyes, with clear black and white, and eyelashes that are longer than some girls’.
Even though he was only wearing a coarse linen outfit covered in patches, his outstanding qualities were still undeniable.
Coupled with those golden rabbit ears, she was even cuter than ever, attracting frequent glances from the ladies passing by on the street.
If it weren’t for saving face, they really wanted to pamper Meng Chen.
He raised his hand and touched the golden rabbit ears on his head.
A strange feeling spread throughout Meng Chen’s body.
He quickly lowered his hand and dared not touch them any further.
“well…”
A hint of helplessness flashed in Meng Chen’s eyes, and he sighed again, silently complaining to himself.
“I clearly fused with Tang Wulin’s template, so why is my martial soul the Soft Bone Rabbit?
Shouldn’t it be Blue Silver Grass?”
Mentioning Tang Wulin’s template, Meng Chen thought of how he was hit by a golden truck and ended up in the Douluo Continent.
As a time traveler, one naturally has their own special advantages.
Meng Chen’s cheat code is the [Tang Wulin template], which allows him to obtain everything about Tang Wulin after merging with it.
He not only possesses the bloodline of the Golden Dragon King, but also the bloodlines of the Sea God, the Asura God, the Blue Silver Emperor, the Soft Bone Rabbit, and humans.
The dominant force is naturally the bloodline of the Golden Dragon King, and of course, the eighteen seals are also indispensable.
In addition, he also has the “blessing of the goddess of life,” which endows him with superhuman vitality far exceeding that of ordinary humans, as well as an almost abnormal self-healing ability.
There’s also good news: he doesn’t have Tang San’s divine consciousness within him.
Meng Chen originally thought he would awaken the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul like Tang Wulin, but he didn’t expect it to be the Soft Bone Rabbit, with innate full soul power.
It’s not that the Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul is bad, it’s just that for a big boy like him to have a pair of rabbit ears, isn’t that too tempting?
He had only been sitting for a short time when Meng Chen felt no fewer than thirty gazes filled with doting affection and even possessiveness.
So many mean aunties!
“No, we can’t sit here any longer.”
“If I sit any longer, someone might put a sack over my head!”
Meng Chen became increasingly frightened as he thought about it, so he immediately got up, dusted himself off, and prepared to leave.
However, he had only taken a few steps when an extremely luxurious golden carriage stopped in front of him.
The carriage was decorated with swan reliefs, and a golden swan banner stood at each of the four corners, fluttering in the wind.
Sunlight shone on the carriage, making it radiant and exuding unparalleled nobility.
Meng Chen stopped and looked up at the golden carriage, becoming secretly wary.
Soon, the carriage door opened, and a blond figure dressed in fine clothes stepped out.
He was tall and handsome.
Xue Qinghe stepped down from the carriage, looked down at Meng Chen, and saw his handsome and cute face reflected in her pupils, a gentle look appearing in her eyes.
He crouched down, smiled slightly, and asked Meng Chen, “Little brother, why are you sitting here all alone?
Where’s your father?”
Meng Chen shook his head: “I don’t have a father.”
“Uh…” Xue Qinghe’s smile froze, then she asked cautiously, “What about your mother?”
Meng Chen shook his head again: “I don’t have a mother either.”
I’m so damn stupid!
Xue Qinghe suddenly felt like slapping herself twice, and her gaze towards Meng Chen held a hint of pity and tenderness.
This child is so adorable, yet has such a tragic past.
How pitiful!
She noticed the changing look in the man’s eyes; he was clearly a man, yet he was more sentimental than a woman.
Meng Chen knew something was wrong.
Could I have run into a pedophile?
“Little brother, do you have any other relatives?
Don’t be afraid, I’m not a bad person.
My name is Xue Qinghe, and I am the new crown prince of the empire.”
Xue Qinghe noticed that Meng Chen looked at him with a hint of wariness, so he quickly revealed his identity.
Xue Qinghe!
Upon hearing this, Meng Chen’s face showed a hint of surprise.
It was actually her!
Since it’s Qian Renxue disguised as Xue Qinghe, there’s nothing to be afraid of.
At least in terms of morality, Qian Renxue’s reputation is impeccable.
Seeing that Meng Chen was no longer wary of her and even showed some trust, Xue Qinghe, no, Qian Renxue, also breathed a sigh of relief.
“I have no other relatives.
I’m all alone at home now,” Meng Chen said, feigning sadness, his eyes slightly red, tears welling up before he could speak.
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue felt even more distressed.
She quickly reached out and wiped away the tears from Meng Chen’s eyes, gently comforting him:
“Little brother, don’t cry.
Why don’t you come with me and go back to the Crown Prince’s residence?
I will take good care of you.”
Such a handsome and adorable little boy is always in high demand and hard to come by; she can’t let someone else have him!
The noble ladies who had stopped around looked disappointed when they heard that the Crown Prince wanted to take Meng Chen in.
They hesitated for a moment, wondering how His Highness the Crown Prince had managed to get there first!
Your Highness, do you even know how to raise a child properly?!
Upon hearing that Qian Renxue wanted to adopt him, Meng Chen was stunned for a moment, his face showing hesitation, but inside he was overjoyed.
On the surface, Qian Renxue is the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire.
With her protection, he can at least not lack resources, if not domineering.
Secretly, Qian Renxue is the young master of the Spirit Hall.
Even if Qian Renxue’s identity is exposed in the future and she returns to the Spirit Hall, he will go with her and still have someone to protect him once they arrive.
Not bad, not bad at all!
“Really!
But I only have a Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul with innate full soul power.
I’m afraid I won’t be able to help Your Highness…”
Meng Chen lowered his head, his golden rabbit ears trembling, and his voice was barely audible.
It’s still innate full soul power!
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue’s face lit up with joy, and she became even more determined to adopt Meng Chen.
“Little brother, don’t worry.
I want to adopt you not because of your talent, I just want a caring little brother.”
After saying that, Qian Renxue smiled at Meng Chen, reached out and took his hand.
Meng Chen complied with her and got into the carriage together.
The group of noble ladies watched the carriage disappear into the distance, shook their heads, and left with regret.
More than half an hour later.
At the entrance of the Crown Prince’s residence, the carriage came to a smooth stop, and Qian Renxue led Meng Chen down from the carriage.
The Crown Prince’s residence was magnificent and solemn, located right next to the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace.
Meng Chen followed Qian Renxue across the threshold and entered the residence.
“Your Highness, you’re back.”
The butler approached and bowed respectfully to Qian Renxue, while his gaze swept over Meng Chen, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
Qian Renxue was about to introduce Meng Chen to the housekeeper when she remembered that she hadn’t asked his name yet.
“Little brother, I almost forgot to ask your name?”
“My name is Meng Chen.”
“Meng Chen?
This child will live in the Crown Prince’s residence from now on.
Try to meet any needs he may have.
By the way, go to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy and tell him that I need an admission spot.
Arrange it as soon as possible.”
Qian Renxue gave the instructions to the steward.
The steward nodded in response.
“They’re going to put me in the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy,” Meng Chen thought to himself.
But in the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, even the lowest-ranking students at the Tianwei level need to be Great Soul Masters, right?
Can someone who has just awakened his martial soul get in?
Or is it that the Heaven Dou Royal Academy also has an affiliated primary school or something similar, specifically for noble children who have just awakened their martial souls?
