Spirit City, Worship Hall.
'Rumble——'
A deep rumbling sound arose as the heavy temple gates were pushed open. Exuding a sacred aura and carrying a temperament far beyond before, Qian Renxue walked into the Worship Hall.
"Grandfather, I've completed the third trial."
Before the angel statue inside the hall, Qian Daoliu, who stood with his hands clasped behind his back, facing away from her, heard Qian Renxue's words.
"Hehe~, Grandfather knows. Xiaoxue, you are the most outstanding of the Angel Clan in ten thousand years!"
Turning around, gazing at his beloved granddaughter who had obtained the inheritance of the Aangle God, Qian Daoliu smiled warmly.
Pausing, Qian Daoliu continued:
"Xiaoxue, Grandfather has two pieces of news to tell you."
"What news?"
Qian Renxue revealed a look of surprise.
"Several days ago, while you were undergoing your trial, the Clear Sky Sect was exterminated, and before that, Tang Hao had already died."
Qian Daoliu spoke with a calm expression.
"What? Tang Hao is dead? The Clear Sky Sect has been exterminated?!"
Qian Renxue was greatly shocked, but after the shock, a surge of anger welled in her heart.
From Qian Renxue's standpoint, Tang Hao was her father's murderer. Such a deep hatred, she should have personally slain him with her own hands, but she never expected someone else to cut in ahead.
"Who was it? Bibi Dong?"
Qian Renxue asked in a deep voice.
If it was Bibi Dong—hmph~—even if Bibi Dong killed Tang Hao, Qian Renxue would still never forgive her!
Qian Daoliu shook his head:
"No. A planted agent in the Slaughter City sent back news that Tang Hao was killed not far from the entrance of the Slaughter City by Mu Yang, using a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
That's right, Mu Yang, like your mother, is also a twin martial soul spirit master.
And on the night of the second day after Tang Hao's death, the hidden Clear Sky Sect was annihilated. Not a single person escaped from their headquarters.
Without accident, the Clear Sky Sect was exterminated by the Elemental Sacred Academy."
Although he had already received this news several days ago, at this very moment, Qian Daoliu's heart still felt somewhat unsettled.
The once number-one sect in the world, Spirit Hall's greatest hidden threat, had actually become mere history?
He could not help but wonder—would the Spirit Hall, which had stood upon the continent for ten thousand years, continue to endure, or, in the future, would it end up like the Clear Sky Sect, becoming history as well?
'No, with Xiaoxue here, the radiance of the Angel shall be eternal, and Spirit Hall shall also exist forever!'
Qian Daoliu thought silently.
"Mu Yang?"
Qian Renxue raised her brows, and the corners of her lips curled into a smile.
If it were anyone else who had stolen her revenge against her father's killer, she would naturally feel displeased, but Mu Yang was different.
This was her 'good virtuous younger brother.' They shared a bond forged through life and death. A good younger brother avenging his good elder brother's father's hatred—how could Qian Renxue possibly harbor resentment? She even wished she could immediately find Mu Yang to drink a few cups together.
"Oh, right, Grandfather, have you found the whereabouts of that one known as the Invincible on Land back then?"
Suddenly, Qian Renxue thought of a crucial point and hurriedly asked.
To be able to annihilate the Clear Sky Sect showed the Elemental Sacred Academy's strength was extraordinary, but in Qian Renxue's view, even if the Elemental Sacred Academy was powerful, they still could not compare to the former Invincible on Land.
If one day Tang Chen returned, discovered the Clear Sky Sect had been destroyed, and came to the Elemental Sacred Academy for revenge, what then?
Qian Renxue did not care about outsiders' lives, but she cared about her good younger brother, as well as Shui Yanyu, who had once saved her life.
To ensure the two's safety, Qian Renxue felt she needed to find Tang Chen in advance, eliminate him, and remove this hidden danger.
Perhaps right now she was not Tang Chen's opponent, but Qian Renxue firmly believed that once she completed the Angel God Trials and ascended to the Angel God's position, with the divine might, the so-called Invincible on Land would be nothing more than an ant.
"Tang Chen has been missing for a long time. Spirit Hall still has not been able to discover his whereabouts.
But Xiaoxue, according to Grandfather's deduction, Mu Yang should also have received a divine inheritance. Otherwise, it's impossible to explain why his strength has increased so quickly. Have you thought carefully about what attitude you should take towards him and the Elemental Sacred Academy in the future?"
Shaking his head, Qian Daoliu asked.
"He also has a divine inheritance?"
Qian Renxue was stunned. So it turned out that the ones who had begun divine trials weren't only herself and Bibi Dong?
But immediately after, Qian Renxue's heart leapt with joy.
It was well known that a spirit master's lifespan was limited. The theoretical maximum lifespan of a Rank 99 Peerless Douluo was a thousand years, but in practice it was often much less.
However, if a spirit master became a god at Rank 100, according to the information left behind by the Angle God, their lifespan should be unlimited.
Mu Yang and Shui Bing'er had a Martial Soul Fusion Skill. Their relationship was unquestionable. As for her and Mu Yang being sworn siblings, that was fine, but in terms of man-woman relations, she clearly could not get in between.
But if Shui Bing'er could not become a god, eventually she would still pass away.
When that time came, would she not then have her chance?
A millennium was indeed long, but Qian Renxue felt she could afford to wait. For an immortal god, a thousand years was not that long.
As for the possibility of Shui Bing'er also becoming a god?
Qian Renxue felt the chances were slim. After all, in tens of thousands of years, no other spirit master had ascended to godhood.
Her Angel God Trial was a blessing left by the Ancestor God to the descendants of her clan.
As for Bibi Dong and Mu Yang, both were exceptionally gifted twin martial soul spirit masters, not comparable to ordinary geniuses.
Take the former Invincible on Land, Tang Chen, for example—was his talent not already unparalleled? Yet Tang Chen had still not obtained a divine inheritance.
Otherwise, with Tang Chen's strength, what trial could he not pass? Having been missing all these years, if he were able to become a god, he would have already become one. This clearly showed how difficult obtaining a divine inheritance was.
Mm, Qian Renxue's understanding was not wrong. If not for the Rakshasa God scheming, Tang Chen would already have completed the Asura God Trial and become the new Asura God.
As for why Qian Renxue thought this way, it was not because she was lovestruck, but because she believed that as the sole descendant of the Angel Clan, she had the responsibility to pass on the Angel bloodline.
Passing on the bloodline could not rely on herself alone—she needed a man.
Looking across her generation's males on the continent, only Mu Yang met her standards—talent, appearance, and emotional bond all present.
Rather than randomly finding a man to pass down the Angel bloodline, it would be better to choose her good younger brother!
Moreover, the offspring of two gods should surely be exceptionally outstanding, right?
Mm, to have a child in order to maintain brotherhood feelings—this was not unreasonable, was it?
Thinking so, a blush spread across Qian Renxue's cheeks.
Qian Daoliu: "???"
What's with this blushing?
Don't tell me… ah, of course, his granddaughter was not young anymore. In an ordinary family, if a child awakened innate soul power, they would already be attending a primary spirit master academy.
But his granddaughter was no ordinary woman. She was not someone who needed to worry about marriage. Qian Daoliu felt he needed to raise his vigilance against that yellow-haired—no, against that blue-haired boy.
