Douluo's self has a soul beast clone

In Li Chang'an's view, Xue Beng had been playing the fool for far too long. He had really picked up the habits of a pig. He had been pretending to be a纨绔 for so long that the mask had long been ingrained in his bones. Even if it were forcibly removed, it would leave a deep mark, impossible to erase forever.

If such a fellow were to ascend the throne, it would not only be irresponsible to the country but also to the people! Therefore, for the sake of the country and the people, it was necessary for him to prevent him from ascending the throne and harming the masses!

Okay, the above are actually all high-sounding and hypocritical statements.

The truth is, Xue Beng had offended him before, so he held a grudge. He was determined to never let him ascend the throne!

Even if he were to pick an agreeable member of the royal family to support in the future, he would never let Xue Beng ascend the throne.

As for why he didn't simply ascend the throne himself?

Mainly because it was too troublesome, and Li Chang'an didn't value secular power. After all, this was a Xuanhuan world where individual power belonged to oneself.

It truly verified the so-called 'fist is power, clenching the fist is holding power! With a fist, you have power!'

Without strength, the so-called supreme Emperor, in the eyes of the lofty gods, was nothing more than an ant.

And as long as he could become a god, what wouldn't he have?

Why would he need to covet the secular throne?

........

Your Highness the Crown Prince?

Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, was stunned by the other party's address, thinking, 'Why has it become so distant? Didn't he used to call me Brother Xue? Is this person really Li Chang'an? Why has he become so indifferent?'

Earlier, when she saw Li Chang'an's back, she felt something was wrong. Compared to the gentle, restrained, humble, and courteous Chang'an she remembered, this person gave her the feeling of being exceptionally flamboyant and reckless, as if he had let himself go completely.

It was as if he feared nothing in the world, with a kind of uninhibited flamboyance that made him unafraid of anything!

Strange, too strange.

Although Qian Renxue was doubtful, she still put on a warm appearance on the surface and said, "Hey, my dear brother. Didn't I tell you long ago to call me Brother Xue? Calling me Your Highness the Crown Prince is too distant. Moreover, you are still Ke'er's future husband, and we will be family sooner or later. You don't need to be so restrained."

"By the way, who is this lady?" She looked at Xue Di beside him, suspecting that Li Chang'an's change was probably related to this unfamiliar woman.

Because this woman gave people an extraordinary feeling just by looking at her. One could tell at a glance that she was no ordinary woman.

"Xue Di."

Before Li Chang'an could speak, Xue Di stated her name in a clear and cold voice.

Listening to this very unique name, Qian Renxue felt that it didn't sound like a real name at all. Who would take this name? It sounded more like a nickname than a name.

And in fact.

The name Xue Di was originally a nickname, the honorific title given to her by the soul beasts of the Far North, meaning the Emperor among the Snow Maidens. Later, as time passed, it slowly became her name. The name Bing Di was the same; it was originally a nickname.

Soul beasts usually don't have the awareness to give themselves names, and therefore, when they realize they want to give themselves a name, they often take names very casually.

For example, Xiao Wu, a rabbit, is called Xiao Wu, and the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python are called Er Ming and Da Ming. As for surnames, they simply don't have them.

Although she felt that the other party was perfunctory and had given her a fake name, Qian Renxue didn't show it. Instead, she smiled and echoed, "Xue Di, what a domineering name."

"By the way, I suddenly remembered that I have other things to do. I won't disturb you any longer. Brother Chang'an, let's get together next time." With that, Qian Renxue cupped her hands, her etiquette exceptionally proper.

Even though the dignified Crown Prince was acting like this, Li Chang'an, no matter how disgusted he was in his heart, naturally couldn't lose his manners on the surface. So, he returned the greeting.

After saying goodbye to each other, Qian Renxue turned around and walked away.

Li Chang'an looked at her back, his gaze profound. In his heart, he was thinking about how to deal with her?

Should he let her poison Xue Ye, kill off all the legitimate heirs of the royal family, and then, when she was about to successfully usurp the throne, come out and expose her true colors, turning the tide and reaping a huge wave of fame?

Or should he find an opportunity to kill this future Angel God, cutting off a future opponent who could compete with him?

After thinking it over again and again, Li Chang'an finally sighed. "Forget it, at least that cheap old father-in-law treated me well. Even if he is very utilitarian, gratitude is gratitude! I can't be an ungrateful person who repays kindness with hatred."

He finally decided to help the Heaven Dou Imperial Family.

As long as the future emperor wasn't Xue Beng, he could accept anyone else as emperor.

Anyway, Xue Ye wasn't dead yet. Although his body had been riddled with holes from Qian Renxue's poisoning over the years, as long as he could be detoxified, he could still live for a few more years. Then, he could use this time to have another son to inherit the throne.

If there wasn't enough time, he could directly choose someone from the royal family to adopt and inherit the throne.

...

On the other side.

After Qian Renxue returned to the Crown Prince's residence, she entered her room. Her expression suddenly became cold and stern, and she said in a low voice, "Someone!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a black shadow flashed.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince."

A black-clothed man kneeling on one knee suddenly appeared beside her. These were the confidants she had cultivated over the years, relying on the power of the Crown Prince. They were absolutely 100% loyal and reliable!

Xue Ye the Great Emperor knew about these, but he acquiesced. After all, as the Crown Prince of a country, the person who would inherit the throne in the future, it was normal to have some death squads under him. Without a foundation, how would he inherit the throne in the future?

"Go and investigate where Chang'an has been during this period and what he has encountered." Qian Renxue said indifferently, "Also, investigate the origins of the woman beside him!"

"Yes."

The black-clothed man accepted the order and then turned into a black shadow and disappeared on the spot.

'Li Chang'an, what are you hiding? What are you afraid of?'

'Now that things have come to this, why have you suddenly stopped hiding?'

Qian Renxue turned to look out the window, recalling this person who always made her feel somewhat unfathomable. She was always concerned about his subtle change in attitude.

Meanwhile.

Li Chang'an was now taking Xue Di back to his mansion in Heaven Dou City.

This mansion was naturally not his parents' original baronial mansion, but one that the emperor had bestowed upon him after he became a marquis. After all, the scale and form of a marquis's mansion and a baron's mansion were quite different.
