Chapter 37: I Became an Earl with Just a Few Words?
"Alright, no matter how harsh your replication conditions are, I will do my best to help you complete the replication."
Qian Renxue didn't ask further.
Whatever schemes Li Tian had in his heart, asking would certainly not reveal them.
She would know by watching.
If he was truly a fox, he would eventually show his tail, and he wouldn't be able to stir up any big waves.
"Many thanks, Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Li Tian cupped his fists in thanks, not offering any explanation, as she hadn't asked.
She would know after replicating it once.
Qian Renxue said, "You should pack up; there's no need to stay in a place like this."
Li Tian: "..."
If he had known it would be so smooth, he should have stayed in a hotel. Why rent a house?
Wasn't that a pure waste of money?
But it wasn't a big problem. Following the Heaven Dou Crown Prince, would he ever lack money?
Li Tian quickly packed up and left with Qian Renxue.
He didn't go to cancel the rent.
Although with Qian Renxue there, it wouldn't be difficult, there was no need.
To cancel the rent after just one day, he would be the one breaching the contract.
Forcibly canceling the rent would be abusing power. He could afford to lose face, but Qian Renxue could not.
As the Crown Prince, it was natural that she didn't arrive on foot.
Li Tian followed her into a luxurious carriage and headed towards the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.
"I'll take you to meet Imperial Father first."
Qian Renxue said, "Whether it's the things I promised you or replicating the Spirit, we'll discuss it after meeting Imperial Father."
Li Tian said, "Alright."
On the way to the Imperial Palace, Qian Renxue asked for many detailed pieces of information about Li Tian.
For example, his birth and his relatives.
Li Tian had only filled in "Nuoding City" for his birthplace at the Great Spirit Arena, so Qian Renxue didn't know the specifics.
Li Tian did not hide anything and chose to tell the truth.
Because hiding these things was meaningless; the other party would certainly not believe his one-sided story and would definitely send people to investigate him thoroughly.
Upon learning that he was an orphan, Qian Renxue was momentarily stunned.
An orphan meant no attachments, no weaknesses. Such a person was the most difficult to trust when employed.
It seemed she would have to find a way to create some weaknesses for him.
As for information like attending an academy or running away on the first day of school, it was useless.
The carriage stopped in front of the palace gate.
Qian Renxue led Li Tian in on foot, and the two guards also departed.
Bringing guards to see Xue Ye would be a bit impolite.
As the Crown Prince, Qian Renxue, even with a stranger, had an unobstructed path.
Qian Renxue didn't know where Xue Ye was at the moment.
Entering the inner palace, she grabbed someone and asked, only to learn he was in the Imperial Garden.
Arriving outside the Imperial Garden.
Qian Renxue said, "Wait here. I'll go in and speak with Imperial Father first."
Li Tian nodded: "Alright!"
Qian Renxue walked into the Imperial Garden alone and found Emperor Xue Ye in a pavilion.
At this time, Xue Ye was chatting with a beautiful woman.
Qian Renxue bowed outside the pavilion and said, "Your son pays respects to Imperial Father, and respects Imperial Mother."
"Rise!"
Xue Ye waved his hand and asked, "What brings you here?"
Qian Renxue then informed him of Li Tian's situation, which left him utterly astonished.
He had taken in someone with Innate Full spirit power?
What kind of joke was this?
An Innate Full spirit power user not joining Spirit Hall, not joining the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Joining their Heaven Dou Empire?
Didn't Xue Ye know the situation of the Heaven Dou Empire? Was that kid blind?
As for Qian Renxue's promises...
What were they worth?
The reason the two great Empires were weak wasn't precisely because they lacked Titled Douluo-level combat power?
Heaven Dou was even weaker than Star Luo.
The Star Luo Emperor and Empress, by using their Spirit Fusion Skill, could at least contend with a low-level Titled Douluo.
What about the Heaven Dou Empire? Nothing.
If not for Xue Xing having brought in Dugu Bo and their cooperation with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
The Heaven Dou Empire couldn't even compare to Star Luo.
And an Innate Full spirit power user, as long as they didn't die, would surely become a Titled Douluo, so that small investment was nothing.
After all, that was a Genius with Titled Douluo potential.
Qian Renxue said, "Imperial Father, how could your son joke about such a matter? I have already brought the person; he is waiting outside the Imperial Garden for your summons."
Xue Ye said, "Then what are you waiting for? Call him in."
"Yes!"
Qian Renxue didn't send someone to call him but personally returned to the Imperial Garden's entrance.
"Li Tian, let's go."
Li Tian nodded and entered the Imperial Garden with Qian Renxue.
Lush vegetation, a garden full of flowers.
The floral scent floating in the air was not pungent; instead, it gave one a refreshing feeling.
The Imperial Garden was very large; calling it a landscape garden would not be an exaggeration.
Li Tian followed behind Qian Renxue, winding and turning for a long time before arriving outside the pavilion where Xue Ye was.
Xue Ye was an old man with a face like an ancient moon.
As an emperor, the aura of a superior on him was very strong, giving people a sense of unapproachable majesty.
However, Li Tian felt a strange sensation.
That gaze was like looking at a peerless beauty without clothes; that extremely aggressive look gave Li Tian the illusion of his chrysanthemum tightening.
Emperor Xue Ye, perhaps he had some special fetish?
As for the beautiful woman beside him...
Emm... she was very well-endowed, and her attire was quite revealing, with half of her luscious bosom exposed.
"Li Tian, this is my Imperial Father and Imperial Mother!"
Upon hearing this, Li Tian hurriedly bowed and said, "This humble commoner, Li Tian, pays respects to Your Majesty, and respects the Empress."
"Rise!"
Xue Ye waved his hand. After Li Tian rose, he continued, "I am already aware of your situation. You are willing to disregard Spirit Hall's recruitment and choose to join my Heaven Dou Empire. I am greatly pleased!"
Saying this, he walked out of the pavilion and actually grabbed Li Tian's hand.
Damn!
In that instant, Li Tian's muscles tensed, and goosebumps erupted all over his body.
Yet, he didn't dare to have any unusual reaction.
"Come, come in and sit!"
Xue Ye pulled the stiff Li Tian into the pavilion, then pressed him into a seat.
Qian Renxue also followed in.
Xue Ye continued, "Li Tian, right? Don't worry, although my Heaven Dou is not as good as Spirit Hall, that's only in terms of top-tier combat power. In other aspects, we won't be much worse than them."
"Although Spirit Hall is strong, it also has many Geniuses. You might not get much resources if you go there."
"But choosing my Heaven Dou is different. We will definitely spare no effort to cultivate you. We will prove with practical actions that your choice was not wrong."
Facing a Genius like Li Tian, Xue Ye didn't put on any imperial airs.
Otherwise, if he was cultivated, he would eventually run away.
For such a Genius concerning the nation's fate, sincerity was the ultimate killing move.
Only by being heartfelt could he develop a sense of belonging to Heaven Dou.
However, his heartfelt approach made Li Tian very uncomfortable, always feeling that the other party was a bit too enthusiastic.
This was not very imperial at all.
Nevertheless, he still stood up and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty's great kindness, this humble commoner is eternally grateful. I will dedicate myself to the Empire until death and will never fail to live up to Your Majesty's expectations."
Upon hearing this, Xue Ye's face blossomed with a satisfied smile.
"You gave up the opportunity to become a disciple of a Titled Douluo. I cannot ignore that. The Viscount title that the Crown Prince promised you, let's upgrade it to an Earl title."
No… I became an Earl after just a few sentences?
Are you going to be so generous? You're practically forcing me to save the Heaven Dou Empire from dire straits.
