Qian Renxue was speechless.
Everything Dongfang Jing said is correct.
"You're impressive, I admit defeat." Qian Renxue gave up struggling and instead raised an eyebrow, asking, "So, can you tell me your secret privately? I swear I won't tell anyone else."
Are we that close?
"Uh..." Qian Renxue choked on her words, her pretty face turning red as she thought about what she was about to say.
But she gritted her teeth and, suppressing her shame, said, "Dongfang Jing! As long as you agree to stay by my side, I... I'll marry you! I'll let you do whatever you want with me!"
After saying that, Qian Renxue felt as if she had exhausted all the courage she had in her life.
But to everyone's surprise, Dongfang Jing simply rolled his eyes.
This infuriated Qian Renxue. She slammed her hand on the table, stood up, and demanded, "Am I not pretty enough? Do I not have a good figure?"
Dongfang Jing was amused by her insistence and asked in return, "If you marry me, you will be my seventh wife. Are you willing to do that?"
It was obvious to the naked eye that Qian Renxue was stunned, completely shocked.
Dongfang Jing didn't want to waste any more time on this topic.
He looked at Qian Renxue and changed the subject: "However, although we cannot join the Spirit Hall, perhaps we can cooperate in another way."
"Cooperation?" Qian Renxue came back to her senses, and her gaze towards Dongfang Jing became somewhat inexplicable.
However, I am still somewhat interested in the cooperation he mentioned.
Dongfang Jing leaned forward slightly, his golden eyes staring directly at her, as if trying to see right through her.
"Let me confirm again, your ultimate goal in infiltrating the Heaven Dou royal family is to annex the entire Heaven Dou Empire, isn't that right?"
Qian Renxue's heart skipped a beat, but she still nodded: "That's right."
She thought Dongfang Jing would object to this, or condemn her righteously.
However, to her surprise, Dongfang Jing simply nodded calmly.
"I have no objection to this."
"What?" Qian Renxue was completely stunned.
He didn't object? Isn't he from the Heaven Dou Empire? Isn't his Purple Star Academy also under the jurisdiction of Heaven Dou City?
Qian Renxue truly couldn't understand the boy in front of her at all.
She was eager to know Dongfang Jing's true thoughts, but Dongfang Jing stopped talking.
He leaned back on the sofa and adopted a relaxed tone.
"Before we talk about cooperation, let me tell you about my plans."
"I want to create an organization."
"And the first goal of this organization after its establishment was to wipe two of the three upper sects from this world."
"Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, and Haotian Clan."
"Of course, 'eliminating' only refers to dealing with the disobedient core members and elders. As for the remaining disciples who are willing to submit..."
A meaningful smile appeared on Dongfang Jing's lips.
"We can split it equally."
Upon hearing what he was going to do, Qian Renxue's heart trembled involuntarily.
She stared wide-eyed at those golden phoenix eyes, her face revealing undisguised shock.
What is this boy saying?
Create an organization?
The first goal is to eliminate two of the three major sects.
They also have to share the remaining forces that have submitted with the Spirit Hall.
Qian Renxue's mind raced as she tried to understand the deeper meaning behind Dongfang Jing's words.
She wasn't stupid; she knew very well that although the three upper sects hadn't been as powerful as the Spirit Hall in recent years, their profound foundation was far beyond what ordinary forces could match.
In particular, their sect leaders are all well-established titled Douluo, and their sects are filled with powerful elders.
The Haotian Sect, which has been in seclusion for many years, is still a force to be reckoned with, and no one knows how much power they still possess.
If the Spirit Hall wants to take action against them, it must go through a meticulous plan, mobilize enormous forces, and even be prepared to pay a heavy price.
But now this boy, who is several years younger than him, is casually saying that he will wipe them out?
What gives him the right?
"You..." Qian Renxue opened her mouth, but found her voice was a little dry, "Do you know what you're saying?"
"Of course I know." Dongfang Jing's expression remained calm. "The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan offended my people, and they must pay the price. As for the Clear Sky Clan, I killed Tang San and Tang Hao, and they will come knocking on our door sooner or later. In that case, it's easier for us to just go and kill them directly."
After hearing these words, Qian Renxue's expression instantly became complicated, as if she was deep in thought.
"You mean you want to join forces with our Spirit Hall?"
"That's a fair way to put it." Dongfang Jing nodded. "Your Spirit Hall's goal is to unify the continent, while my goal is simply to eliminate those who provoke us or hinder us, and incidentally, to establish a force of my own. Our goals are not in conflict, and in some ways, they can even be mutually beneficial."
"For example, once I've dealt with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Clear Sky Clan, the three upper clans will be practically defunct, and your Spirit Hall's prestige on the continent will reach its peak. No other sect or force will dare to contend with you. At that time, your plan to annex the Heaven Dou Empire will face much less resistance."
"All I need are the wealth and resources that those sects have accumulated over the years, and the Soul Masters who are willing to submit to me. That shouldn't be much to you, right?"
Qian Renxue fell silent.
She had to admit that the cooperation proposal put forward by Dongfang Jing was incredibly tempting to the Spirit Hall.
This is like a windfall!
The Spirit Hall only needs to send a portion of its people to stop the disciples within the sect.
The high-end combat capabilities will be left to them.
All they need to do is sit back and reap the benefits, and they can eliminate two major threats and gain an ally with unfathomable strength.
But is there really such a good thing in the world?
"I need to know exactly where your confidence comes from," Qian Renxue's gaze sharpened. "As far as I know, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's Sect Master, Yu Yuanzhen, is a level 95 Title Douluo, and the sect also has several elders above the Soul Douluo level..."
"You don't need to worry about that," Dongfang Jing waved his hand. "You just need to answer me whether you accept this cooperation or not."
"If you accept, when I take action, I hope the Spirit Hall can help me avoid some unnecessary trouble."
"After the mission is accomplished, we will split the spoils equally."
"If you don't accept, that's fine too. It's just that when I start taking action, I might not think so much. If it accidentally affects some of your Spirit Hall's arrangements in Heaven Dou City, then I can only apologize."
Qian Renxue's fingernails dug into her palms again without her realizing it.
"I can't give you an answer right away," Qian Renxue took a deep breath. "I need to go back and discuss it with Grandpa."
"Okay." Dongfang Jing nodded.
