Qian Renxue: "Hahaha, Xiao Tian, you are truly confident. Aren't you afraid I'll tell Father about this?"
Qian Renxue feigned a threat.
In reality, she was happy with Xiao Tian's behavior.
If Xiao Tian were to really join the Tiandou Royal Family after the Soul Master Competition, then she would be troubled. If she couldn't recruit him, wouldn't her only choice be to kill him?
With the confidence, talent, strength, and appearance Xiao Tian was currently displaying, she couldn't bring herself to do it.
Xiao Tian smiled: "Will His Royal Highness the Crown Prince tell? This is a crucial moment. Even if Emperor Xue Ye knows, so what? I also have the backing of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and Dugu Bo's support. Does the Royal Family dare to touch me? Even if Emperor Xue Ye dared to make a move, I could actually choose not to participate in this Soul Master Competition. As an Emperor, he understands how to weigh pros and cons the best. He won't do anything to me."
Qian Renxue:
Indeed, Qian Renxue was left speechless by the logic of Xiao Tian's words.
Previously, Dugu Bo was clearly on Prince Xue Xing and Xue Beng's side, but Dugu Bo directly severed ties with them for Xiao Tian. Now, without Dugu Bo's protection, Xue Beng doesn't even dare to come and bother her.
After learning Xiao Tian's attitude towards Spirit Hall, Qian Renxue continued to press: "One last question. In the future, if Spirit Hall and the Two Great Empires go to war, will your Sect help the Heaven Dou Empire, or Spirit Hall, which you have a better impression of?"
Xiao Tian shook his head and said: "Why should I help? The purpose of establishing this Sect is only to spread some of my cultivation insights and philosophies on the Continent. I don't want to be drawn into war. If, in the future, the war affects my side, I can only say sorry. Whether it's people from the Empire or Spirit Hall, I'll fight them all!"
Qian Renxue didn't expect such an answer and frowned: "Xiao Tian, you should know that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School supports the Heaven Dou Empire..."
Xiao Tian interrupted Qian Renxue: "But my Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are only in a cooperative relationship. Although Uncle Ning and my two grandfathers have a good relationship with me, the closest to me is only Rongrong. Out of love for Rongrong, I will persuade them to give up supporting the Heaven Dou Empire, what do you think?
The support between a Sect and an Empire is nothing more than a benefit. Many years ago, the Clear Sky Sect even supported the Star Luo Empire, but now they've sealed their mountain and don't care, haven't they?"
Xiao Tian spoke very boldly, not caring at all that the person in front of him was 'the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire'.
Qian Renxue's heart was heavy. She didn't know whether to be happy or worried about Xiao Tian's words.
What made her happy was that if Xiao Tian could make the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School not support the Heaven Dou Empire, it would naturally be a good thing for Spirit Hall. If a great war broke out in the future, Spirit Hall's advantage would further expand.
What worried her was that if Spirit Hall ultimately wanted to unify the Continent, they would definitely not be able to bypass the Sect established by Xiao Tian, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School that cooperated with him!
Given Bibi Dong's personality, if these two Sects did not become subordinates of Spirit Hall, there would only be one outcome: their destruction!
They couldn't let these two Sects be independent of Spirit Hall's rule, could they? Would that even count as unification?
Immediately, Qian Renxue asked Xiao Tian this question.
Xiao Tian: "If Spirit Hall truly unifies the Continent in the future, then why can't they cooperate with my Sect? Isn't establishing a cooperative relationship good? Why must we become subordinates? Is it because subordinates should be controlled? But forgive my frankness, I am quite stubborn and simply don't like the feeling of being controlled! If His Holiness the Supreme Pontiff insists on this, then... we can only go to war!"
Qian Renxue was slightly startled: "Xiao Tian, are you this confident? No, it should be said you're reckless, right? How many people does your Sect have? Do you think it can withstand Spirit Hall's attack?"
Xiao Tian chuckled: "Who can say for sure what the future holds? Besides, just wait and see. I established this Sect for another purpose, which is for commoners like me."
Qian Renxue listened, looking confused. Was Xiao Tian trying to do something for the commoners of the Continent?
Isn't this philosophy the same as Spirit Hall's?
Qian Renxue: Ah, ah, ah, forget it. This isn't something she should think about. Leave it to that crazy woman Bibi Dong!
Qian Renxue thought about Xiao Tian's words just now and said: "If in the future, someone who is a Spirit Emperor under thirty years old appears and can defeat you, would you be willing to become her subordinate?"
Xiao Tian chuckled: "I don't even know her, why should I become her subordinate just because I lost?"
Qian Renxue: "Let's just assume she defeats you, and her demand is for you to be her subordinate."
Xiao Tian: "Is this a one-sided demand?"
Qian Renxue: "No, you can also state a demand."
Xiao Tian: "My demand? Should she also become my subordinate? Hmm, no, what if that person is a man? Where would my Sect Master's prestige be? If it's a woman, that's also not good. I already have quite a few romantic entanglements. How about this, I haven't thought about it yet. We'll talk about it when I really encounter her. My demand will definitely be something the other party can achieve, and it won't be too excessive."
Qian Renxue roared internally: Bastard! I, this great beauty, am your opponent, and you're still being picky?
Xiao Tian looked at Qian Renxue's constantly changing expression with amusement, and 'suspiciously' said: "Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, why do you look so bad? Aren't we just hypothesizing? The person I'm talking about isn't you, right?"
Qian Renxue:
Qian Renxue took a deep breath, controlled her emotions, and showed a slight smile: "Xiao Tian, please remember your words today. In the future, that Spirit Emperor or even Spirit Saint who meets your demands might just appear."
After Xiao Tian left, two people emerged from the shadows: Snake Lance and Porcupinefish Douluo.
Snake Lance: "Young Master, are you planning...?"
Porcupinefish: "Young Master, this person is too arrogant. If we can't subdue him, it might ruin Spirit Hall's future grand plan. Should we tell the High Priest?"
Qian Renxue said indifferently: "What? Are you doubting my ability? No one is allowed to spread what happened today, or you'll face the consequences!"
Snake Lance and Porcupinefish smiled bitterly and could only agree.
Qian Renxue thought about when would be the best time to reveal herself.
That's right, the person she just mentioned who would meet Xiao Tian's demands was actually herself!
However, she wasn't clear about Xiao Tian's specific strength yet. After arriving at Spirit City, she would observe him through a few matches.
That's right, in order to appear openly before Xiao Tian and make this agreement effective, she decided to go see Bibi Dong once she arrived at Spirit City!
