That Is Not My Sister But Bibi Dong?!

Chapter 92: The Double-Edged Sword



As the rocket was launched, Qian Gu Nanfeng was preparing to advance and attack She Long.

Before he could execute his move, he suddenly felt a wave of coldness in front of him.

Instinctively, Qian Gu Nanfeng looked ahead.

To his shock, he saw an indescribable object trailing long flames, rushing toward him.

"...What is this?!"

Before he could finish his sentence, or even prepare to defend,

Boom!

The scorching rocket body pierced straight through his skull.

He didn't even have time to struggle.

In his final moment of life, Qian Gu Nanfeng's eyes were wide open, filled with disbelief.

He never imagined that he would die like this.

Unwilling, utterly unwilling!

But there is no medicine for regret in this world.

After this moment, everything around him fell silent.

In the dead of night, not a sound could be heard.

Only after a long while did the subordinates who had followed Qian Gu Nanfeng finally react with frightened cries.

"Run! This is terrifying!"

"What was that?! Lord Qian Gu is gone, just like that!"

"Who cares what it was, run for your lives!"

"Escape! Escape! Escape!"

None of his subordinates even thought about retrieving Qian Gu Nanfeng's body. They had only one thought in mind: to flee this dangerous place as quickly as possible.

But once the Heavenly Strategy Army starts attacking, they won't stop until all enemies are dead.

Pop, pop, pop—

The sound of continuous shots rang out around them.

One by one, all the traitors fell into pools of blood.

She Long, who witnessed the entire process, was speechless for a long time.

His mind was somewhat foggy—what had just happened?

Qian Gu Nanfeng had been killed in an instant, and his men followed shortly after!

Looking around, confirming that Bibi Dong was nowhere in sight, She Long began to doubt whether this was some kind of post-trauma syndrome experienced by all dark soul masters.

But as soon as this thought arose, he shook his head, dismissing it.

It shouldn't be...

Dark soul masters aren't that fragile.

Besides, Qian Gu Nanfeng was killed by something too fast for the naked eye to even see!

Still unable to make sense of what had happened, She Long subconsciously looked at Ye Tian. Could it have been him?

The thought made She Long jump.

Could it really have been Ye Tian?

Otherwise, how could someone without even soul master abilities act so composed when facing a Super Douluo?

Could it be that Ye Tian's harmless, innocent appearance was just an act?

Was he, in fact, an old Super Douluo who had been cultivating for years?

That must be it. It's easy for an experienced Super Douluo to hide their true power.

But for a teenager to remain calm in all circumstances—that's much harder to believe.

Like She Long, Qian Renxue was equally surprised.

She had never expected Ye Tian to have such a powerful trump card.

She had seen every move Ye Tian made when he signaled the attack.

Her eyes sparkled with realization: Ye Tian was far stronger than she had imagined.

No wonder Nana had fallen in love with him, and her sister had wholeheartedly approved of the marriage.

Considering his wisdom as well, it was clear that Ye Tian was a once-in-a-millennium talent on the entire Douluo Continent.

This made Qian Renxue reflect on how sharp her sister's judgment was.

Nana's marriage to Ye Tian wasn't a bad deal after all.

"Now that Qian Gu Nanfeng and his men are taken care of, let's head back to rest. We can handle the remaining matters tomorrow," Ye Tian suggested with a smile.

"Alright," She Long nodded solemnly, no longer displaying any arrogance, like a subordinate showing respect to a superior.

He had to admit, the recent battle had truly shocked him.

Ye Tian was indeed an unfathomable person.

Setting aside everything else, in terms of strength alone, Ye Tian was undoubtedly above him.

Such a person deserved his respect.

"Mm," Qian Renxue also nodded gently, a smile appearing on her face.

The credit for killing Qian Gu Nanfeng, after all, would be attributed to her.

Her standing as the 'Crown Prince' in the eyes of Emperor Xue Ye would undoubtedly rise another level.

This would bring her one step closer to her goal of seizing the throne.

With that in mind, Qian Renxue's heart stirred slightly.

What if she requested her sister to assign Ye Tian to her side? What would happen then?

Once the thought crossed her mind, it refused to leave.

Such an extraordinary talent couldn't be let go.

Even if her sister didn't agree, Qian Renxue planned to use special means to fight for him.

Of course, Ye Tian had no idea what Qian Renxue was thinking at the moment.

He simply pushed Qian Renxue to Nana's room, then returned to his own.

Helping Qian Renxue deal with Qian Gu Nanfeng's affair also served as an explanation to both the Heaven Dou Empire and the Spirit Hall.

It had successfully prevented the war from erupting prematurely.

But Ye Tian knew in his heart that the friction between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Spirit Hall didn't lie with any particular individual.

Rather, it was the collision of interests and ideologies.

This kind of clash was irreconcilable and unsolvable.

Only with one side's extinction and the other's victory would such a conflict end.

After dealing with Qian Gu Nanfeng, Ye Tian felt a deep sense of helplessness.

As expected, as long as he stayed on the continent, trouble would find him, even if he hid in a small place like the shores of the East Sea.

Seeing the situation clearly, Ye Tian now understood.

There was no place on the continent where he could live quietly in hiding.

"It's time to consider migrating to an island," Ye Tian sighed softly.

Only an overseas island, a lawless place, would be suitable for him to live.

"Then I can live peacefully on the island with Sister and Nana, farming and fishing, and let the mainland's chaos be none of my concern!"

With that thought, Ye Tian lay down on his bed, exhausted, and closed his eyes.

It was time to rest.

...

The next day.

On behalf of Ye Tian, Qian Renxue stamped several urgent orders with the Crown Prince's seal.

These orders were rushed to various divisions of the SilvisLegion, informing the soldiers of Qian Gu Nanfeng's betrayal and execution, and commanding them to immediately return to their original posts to prevent further unrest.

Nearby, Hu Liena watched as the temporary messengers received their orders and left. She leaned playfully against Ye Tian and said with a laugh:

"Such a small seal is so powerful. With just a few stamps on some papers, you can command tens of thousands of troops."

Ye Tian chuckled lightly: "That's the power of authority. The emperors of the two great empires can command thousands of soldiers with a wave of their hands. They can raise a city overnight or reduce a land to ashes with ease."

Hearing this, Hu Liena pouted. The power Ye Tian described, the Spirit Hall could also wield.

Opposite Hu Liena, Qian Renxue sat in deep thought.

She roughly understood the meaning behind Ye Tian's words. Undoubtedly, power is a double-edged sword.

It can bring prosperity to the continent or plunge it into darkness.

Currently, as the nobles of the empire and the Spirit Hall families compete for power, they are gradually pushing the continent into the abyss of darkness.

It was precisely because she saw this potential danger that she had resolutely accepted the undercover mission, dedicating herself to seizing control of the Heaven Dou Empire in a relatively peaceful manner.

This was to avoid the outbreak of full-scale war.
