Just as Chrysanthemum Douluo left the city, he was invited back by the pursuing Snake Lance Douluo.
To be honest, Chrysanthemum Douluo actually did not want to deal with Qian Renxue.
The relationship between Qian Renxue and the Supreme Pontiff was too complicated, and her status in Spirit Hall was too unique; getting too close felt wrong, and keeping her at a distance felt wrong too.
After all, he was a subordinate of the Supreme Pontiff, and Chrysanthemum Douluo was very clear about the Supreme Pontiff’s attitude toward Qian Renxue.
If the Supreme Pontiff found out that he was having private dealings with Qian Renxue, he would be in big trouble.
But now that Qian Renxue had sent someone to invite him, it would be difficult to refuse.
With complex feelings, Chrysanthemum Douluo entered Heaven Dou City once again.
“Young Lord.”
Before they met, Chrysanthemum Douluo was full of worries, but after they met, his attitude was meticulous.
“Elder Yue Guan, there is no need to be so polite.
You are an Elder of Spirit Hall and my senior.”
Qian Renxue had been in Heaven Dou City for a long time, and apart from Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo, she basically had no opportunity to interact with other high-level members of Spirit Hall.
She was lurking in Heaven Dou City to prove herself, in anticipation of succeeding to the position of Supreme Pontiff of Spirit Hall in the future.
The Supreme Pontiff was actually happy to see this.
Otherwise, given Qian Renxue’s status, if she had remained in Spirit City with Qian Daoliu as her backer, who knows how many high-level members of Spirit Hall she could have recruited.
Chrysanthemum Douluo’s arrival could be described as an opportunity delivered to Qian Renxue for recruitment.
“I dare not.
The Young Lord’s status is noble; this subordinate dare not overstep.”
Chrysanthemum Douluo acted very stiffly.
Saying more leads to more mistakes, so it was better to just act like a fool.
Qian Renxue’s smile remained: “Elder Yue Guan, you have suddenly come to Heaven Dou City; may I ask why?
As the Crown Prince, I do have some capability in Heaven Dou City.
If there is anything you need help with, please do not hesitate to say so.”
Qian Renxue considered herself to be treating subordinates with courtesy, but in Chrysanthemum Douluo’s eyes, her political maneuvering was still too childish, the kind he could see through at a glance.
“It is nothing major; this subordinate is just passing through.”
“Passing through?
I see you seem to have a child with you; is that your Junior?”
Chrysanthemum Douluo sighed slightly in his heart.
What is wrong with Spirit Hall?
The methods of the Supreme Pontiff and the Young Lord were both so immature.
Needless to say, the Supreme Pontiff did not even bother to recruit subordinates like them.
While Qian Renxue wanted to recruit people, her methods were too crude.
Some things can be done but not said, while others should be done first and then mentioned, and certainly not stated directly.
Even if Su Chen were truly his direct Junior, if Qian Renxue wanted to recruit him through Su Chen, she should have called him over to ask first.
Was it not blatantly obvious that she wanted to bestow favors?
If Qian Renxue were already the Supreme Pontiff, it would be another matter.
But she was still just a Young Lord far from the core of power in Spirit Hall.
However, Chrysanthemum Douluo did not refuse outright and make things too ugly in terms of Face.
“That child is just someone I encountered by chance.
Seeing him alone, I gave him a ride.
He is not a Junior.”
“Elder Yue Guan is truly as kind-hearted as always.”
Chrysanthemum Douluo had already spoken to this extent; no matter how insensitive Qian Renxue was, she should know not to push any further.
“Since that is the case, I will not delay Elder Yue Guan’s time any further.”
Just as Chrysanthemum Douluo breathed a sigh of relief, Qian Renxue took out a letter.
“Since I have happened to meet Elder Yue Guan, I have a letter here; I ask that you deliver it to my grandfather.”
Yue Guan: …
He looked at the letter in Qian Renxue’s hand as if he were looking at a hot potato—no, a red-hot branding iron.
Chrysanthemum Douluo was already terrified of avoiding Qian Renxue’s private recruitment.
And if he helped Qian Renxue deliver the letter to the High Priest, if the Supreme Pontiff found out…
Chrysanthemum Douluo could imagine the Supreme Pontiff flying into a rage.
If Qian Renxue’s earlier recruitment attempts were merely immature, this was now making things difficult for him.
But Qian Renxue had already taken the letter out; if he refused directly, it would be too damaging to Qian Renxue’s Face.
“This subordinate will certainly deliver it.”
Yue Guan could only accept it for now and think of a way after returning to Spirit City.
If he really could not think of a perfect solution, he would drag Old Ghost along to think about it.
After Chrysanthemum Douluo left, Porcupinefish Douluo asked:
“Young Lord, do you think the child brought by Chrysanthemum Douluo was really just encountered on the road?”
“Even if Elder Yue Guan is kind-hearted, he should not be kind-hearted to the point of overflowing, right?”
Qian Renxue did not say whether she believed it or not, but her attitude was very clear.
“Then…
do we need to do anything?”
“Not for now.”
Qian Renxue stood up and said: “Action is not as good as stillness; it is best not to do anything that might arouse suspicion.”
…
“The public security in Heaven Dou City is certainly better than in remote places.”
Su Chen wandered around Heaven Dou City and had not yet seen the kind of direct robbery and looting found in other places.
Not long after Su Chen finished sighing, he heard a commotion from the street ahead.
“What happened over there?”
Everyone has curiosity, and the common people of Heaven Dou City are no exception.
Su Chen also leaned forward to listen.
“What else could it be?
It is just Prince Xue Beng bullying the market again.”
“Sigh, they are both princes, so why is the gap between Prince Xue Beng and the Crown Prince so large?”
“Who is to say it isn’t?”
So it was that “playboy” Xue Beng.
Su Chen knew that Xue Beng was acting like a playboy for self-preservation, but his actions still made Su Chen feel that he “did not look like a ruler.”
Even if you were acting crazy and stupid, eating dog feces?
What kind of move is it to harm your own people?
However, the common people of Heaven Dou City were quite bold, daring to discuss a prince in public.
“The Crown Prince is here.”
Suddenly, a voice came from the other end of the street.
Su Chen followed the sound and looked over, seeing the Crown Prince in white robes with a gentle smile on his Face, even nodding kindly to ordinary people.
Uh…
Looking purely at his attitude and appearance, he could be considered quite popular with the people.
“Xue Beng, you are messing around again.”
In front of so many people, Qian Renxue staged a drama of a wise Crown Prince reprimanding his playboy brother.
Many words of praise came from the onlookers.
As for Su Chen, he just treated it as watching a spectacle, right?
What else could he do?
It is just that for some reason, Su Chen always felt that the Crown Prince had looked in his direction more than once.
“That Crown Prince is a woman, and her two guards are Titled Douluo.”
The God of Destruction came to reveal the truth and debunk the fake.
However, the secret he revealed was not much of a secret to Su Chen.
The God of Destruction also felt a bit of emotion when he noticed Qian Renxue.
He knew that Qian Renxue would become the new Angel God later, but this new Angel God, before even going to the Divine Realm, ended up with her God Position shattered because she was an enemy of Tang San, causing the Angel God Position to be lost.
There are not many Level 1 Gods in the Divine Realm in total, and each one can strengthen the power of the Divine Realm.
Gods like the Rakshasa God who are hated by people and dogs alike can die, but the Angel God is a deity with a very positive divine office and God Position.
In this matter, with the Face of the current Asura God, no one went to argue about it.
However, in the eyes of the God of Destruction now, this might not have been intentional by the Asura God.
Actually, before discovering Su Chen, the God of Destruction had the idea of whether to support this Angel God to deal with Tang San.
But looking at it now, this future Angel God does not seem very bright.
A future Level 1 God playing such house games; isn’t that just a waste of time?
Fortunately, there is Su Chen; otherwise…
The God of Destruction did not think this future Angel God had the brains to teach him how to recruit other gods or deal with the Asura God, let alone deal with Tang San.
