Chapter 16 Bibi Dong's Rage
Qian Renxue's face looked slightly gloomy.
Su Cheng chuckled when he saw this, "Hey, it seems a bit difficult to deal with. But even so, if the task is unreasonable, you can refuse it, right? Tell me what kind of task makes you willing to waste time. "
This is a trial.
He wanted to see how much trust he could gain from Qian Renxue now.
Disguising himself as Xue Qinghe and lurking in the Tiandou royal family to plot to usurp the country, this mission can be regarded as a secret of Wuhun Palace, and even the elders may not know everything about it.
Qian Renxue was speechless for a while.
Su Cheng didn't rush him and just waited there silently.
"She wants me to lurk in the Tiandou royal family, disguised as Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, and look for opportunities to usurp the throne of emperor."
"..." Su Cheng looked incomprehensible and said calmly: "What a big joke. Miss Wuhun Palace, can you tell me why you accepted such a task?"
His voice turned cold, "Do you know what the success rate of this thing is? Even if it succeeds, how much time will be spent in the middle. Are you confident or arrogant, or do you think everyone in the world is a fool? This is not even a question. What a mission, this is a gamble!”
As he spoke, he pulled out a piece of white paper and started writing on it.
"Let's do the math. Now Emperor Xueye is in his prime, and he has four sons. No matter what method you use, it will take more than ten years for you to secure the position of prince, and during this period you have to deal with the support of other princes. critics.
"After you complete this step, you will find that your 'father' still has another thirty or forty years to live. If you use other methods, it will take at least another five to ten years, and it will definitely leave hidden dangers.
"After you succeed to the throne, you have to start government affairs as the emperor and erase the traces of the past, which will take another five to ten years. At this time, you can't borrow others' hands, because only you understand the political situation of Tiandou.
"After barely stabilizing the situation, if you want to centralize power and turn the Tiandou Empire into your own territory, you will inevitably face resistance from more forces in the empire. You will find that this so-called empire is actually nothing more than a small one. It’s just a group of interests among the nobles. This step will take even longer.”
Su Cheng held out four fingers, "Forty years, this is the most conservative estimate. And half of your life has passed like this."
Qian Renxue looked stunned.
She is barely ten years old now.
"Do you know where your biggest advantage is? If I had your cultivation talent, I could wake up from my dreams with a smile. Give me thirty years, and the whole world would be at my fingertips. I would be able to use royal methods, but do I still need this kind of weird trick?! "
Hearing what Su Cheng said, even though Qian Renxue recognized him now, she was still not convinced.
After all, anyone who listens to this will only think that this bullshit is too much.
"You don't have to believe it, we'll just look at it later."
Su Cheng saw that she was dissatisfied, but did not continue the topic. Instead, he asked, "What's the situation between you and the Pope?"
Qian Renxue hesitated after hearing this, her eyes slightly uneasy.
"Teacher, I'll tell you later, okay?"
This reply surprised Su Cheng.
He originally thought that the other party would just find a reason to deal with it, but he didn't expect to answer like this. It seemed that Qian Renxue's attitude towards him was indeed somewhat different.
"Okay. But you'd better think carefully about your ridiculous mission in these few days. If you have to return to the Tiandou Empire in the end, I will still teach you, but I will find another successor."
After saying that, he ignored her changing expression, got up and walked out of the room.
In the next few days, apart from preparing potions for Qian Renxue and selecting books, Su Cheng still spent the whole day in the library.
In terms of soul skills, he didn't give much advice to Qian Renxue.
From Su Cheng's point of view, at this stage, her practice of soul skills was all about neglecting the basics and focusing on improving her cultivation.
She is different from myself. My innate qualifications are too poor. No matter how much I practice, my soul power that I can improve every day is very limited. The bottle is so small, just pour a little water into it and it will fill up.
Three days later, Yue Guan came to the library to find Su Cheng and said that the Pope had invited him.
Through daily communication, the relationship between the two is quite good.
When he was about to go to the Pope's Palace, Yue Guan took the initiative to remind him: "Mr. Su, please be more careful when you speak. I think His Majesty the Pope is not in a good mood."
Su Cheng felt something in his heart and had some enlightenment.
I'm afraid Qian Renxue wants to give up the lurking mission.
She might not say that she meant it, but Bibi Dong could guess it after thinking about it.
After all, Qian Renxue was fine when she first returned to Wuhun City, and the situation here had not changed much. The only variable was Su Cheng.
But it doesn't matter. When the situation has progressed to this point, it doesn't matter whether Bibi Dong trusts her or not.
From the beginning, her position in Su Cheng's heart was just a springboard, and she was never prepared to get too close to her.
Looking at the plot of Douluo, apart from the protagonist Tang San, the most unscrupulous ones are Bibi Dong and Hu Liena, the pair of masters and disciples. They are definitely white-eyed wolves of the same origin.
Since childhood, she has enjoyed all the conveniences brought by being a saint, but has been unwilling to bear the corresponding obligations.
Qian Xunji is indeed a beast, but Bibi Dong is also not a kind person, and has never had a sense of gratitude or a sense of right and wrong.
Compared to this lunatic, supporting Qian Renxue is obviously much more reliable.
As for the main mission of the third ring, what he wants to gain is the trust and reuse of the Wuhun Palace. The Pope's Palace obviously cannot fully represent the Wuhun Palace, and the Enshrinement Palace is also one of his choices.
"I know. Thank you for reminding me, Ju Douluo."
Not long after, Su Cheng arrived at the meeting hall of the Pope's Palace.
Just like last time, there were no other people in the huge hall, only Bibi Dong stood at the front of the hall.
This time, the female pope was different from last time. She had a frosty face and a murderous look on her face.
"Su Cheng, you are so brave."
Su Cheng was not panicking in his heart. He walked to a position not far from her and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "What's wrong with His Holiness the Pope? Why are you so angry?"
"You don't have to play dumb," Bibi Dong shouted coldly, "Is it you who did something about Qian Renxue!"
"Isn't that the disciple you recommended to me before? I did successfully convince her to be my successor."
"That's true, but what right do you have to ask her to give up her mission in the Tiandou Empire? Do you know that this matter is related to the thousand-year plan of my Wuhun Hall!"
"Huh?" Su Cheng laughed when he heard it, "Your Holiness the Pope, don't be too ridiculous. Since this mission is so important, why give it to a nine-year-old child?"
"Bold!"
Seeing his playful smile, Bibi Dong's face flashed a blush, and her tall chest rose and fell slightly, rippling with an attractive arc.
Obviously, she could no longer suppress her anger at this time.
"Are you challenging my patience?" Bibi Dong said in a cold voice, "You don't think I really won't kill you, do you?"
"Yes, you won't kill me."
Su Cheng didn't care about the other party's threat at all.
Now, he has too many chips in his hand to count.
