"Wait a moment!"
"I have something to say!"
Under Qian Daoliu's expectant gaze,
Jin Mian strode forward and came to Qian Renxue's side.
He looked directly at the Angel God.
"I agree with Xiao Xue. Can the Angel God's Godly Trial be postponed for a while?"
Crack!
The sound of something shattering echoed through the hall.
Qian Daoliu looked as if he had been hit by a petrification seal.
His expression froze, and his body stiffened,
rooted to the spot in a daze.
What the hell was I expecting?
I asked you to help persuade Xiao Xue to give up that damn undercover mission and return to accept the Godly Trial.
In the end, not only did you not help, but you actually made things worse!
It seems today, my sword must taste blood!
Seeing that Qian Daoliu was about to blow his top and had already drawn his sword, Jin E quickly smiled apologetically. "Big Brother, calm down, calm down! Xiao Mian is someone you watched grow up. Third Brother, quickly help me talk him out of it."
"Oh? Really?"
"How come I don't remember that?"
"Blue Luan, do you know anything about this?"
Qian Daoliu looked at Blue Luan with a fake smile.
"Uh..." Azure Luan Douluo stood there, dumbfounded.
Wait, I was just standing here quietly watching the show.
How did this end up being my problem?
He didn't want to wade into these muddy waters.
Azure Luan Douluo produced a brick from who-knows-where and smashed it against his own forehead without a word.
The brick shattered directly into powder.
But on Azure Luan Douluo's forehead, let alone an injury, not even a bit of skin was grazed.
Yet in the next second, he closed his eyes and collapsed to the ground.
Seeing how cowardly Blue Luan was being,
Jin E had no choice but to step forward and try to pull Jin Mian back.
Jin Mian raised his hand and said, "Wait a second! I'm not finished yet!"
"Don't say another word, or Big Brother's sword will come swinging!" Jin E picked up Jin Mian and retreated.
Unexpectedly,
the Angel God spoke with interest, "There's no need for that. Put him down and let him continue."
Her entire attention had been on the Eight-Winged Angel just now.
She hadn't noticed.
This kid was actually a possessor of a God-level Martial Soul as well.
Although she didn't know which god had bestowed this Martial Soul, she could feel that it was very powerful!
Furthermore, it possessed the same light attribute as the angel.
Could it be the God of Light?
That didn't seem right either.
The light element within this child was even purer and more powerful than that of the God of Light!
Could it be that during the years since her fall, the God of Light had become a God King?
After being put down by Jin E, Jin Mian coughed twice and said, "Ahem, the reason I'm asking Xiao Xue to delay the Godly Trial is because I've discovered that Xiao Xue's current Eight-Winged Angel Martial Soul is not its final form."
"It seems there is still room for evolution."
"Wouldn't the effect be better if we wait for Xiao Xue to evolve her Martial Soul into its final form before she accepts the Godly Trial?"
These words caused a massive stir.
Qian Daoliu shoved Jin E aside, lifted Jin Mian up with both hands, and asked excitedly, "Is it true? You're saying there's a possibility for Xiao Xue's Martial Soul to evolve further?!"
"Speak! Tell me quickly!"
Blue Luan, who had been playing dead and pretending to be unconscious, had stood up again at some point.
He hurriedly reminded him, "Maybe you should put Xiao Mian down first?"
Qian Daoliu quickly put Jin Mian down. "Xiao Mian, speak quickly."
Jin Mian glanced away. "Oh? Weren't you just about to beat me up? Why the sudden change of heart?"
Hearing this,
Qian Daoliu felt a bit embarrassed.
He quickly said, "That's not true! Great Grandfather has the best relationship with you. How could I ever hit you?"
"I was just about to hit Third Brother."
"Third Brother... Hmm?"
Just as he finished speaking, he turned his head to find Azure Luan Douluo, who had just been reminding him.
He had already vanished without a trace.
Qian Renxue tugged on Jin Mian's arm and said, "Alright, Xiao Mian, stop messing around."
"I was just joking with Great Grandfather."
"Alright, let's continue."
Jin Mian explained how Qian Renxue's original Seraphim Martial Soul had evolved into the Eight-Winged Angel.
"To put it simply, the reason Xiao Xue's Seraphim Martial Soul could evolve into the Eight-Winged Angel..."
"...is because she consumed the sacred feather sky orchid and the Yearning Heartbroken Red!"
"And the medicinal power of these two Immortal Herbs has only been partially activated so far."
"Especially the Yearning Heartbroken Red; it is a divine grade among Immortal Herbs, and its efficacy is arguably the strongest of them all."
"If Xiao Xue fully refines the medicinal effects of both Immortal Herbs later on,"
"her Martial Soul will definitely reach another level!"
"Alright, I'm done speaking. This is where the applause should be."
Clap, clap, clap... Qian Daoliu, Jin E, and Blue Luan, who were present, all clapped supportively.
The Angel God pondered for a long time.
After using her divine sense to carefully observe Qian Renxue,
she couldn't help but nod.
She agreed with Jin Mian's statement.
Through her divine sense, she discovered that the medicinal power within Qian Renxue's body was continuously nourishing various parts of her body and her Martial Soul.
Given enough time, this Eight-Winged Angel truly could evolve once more.
Jin Mian immediately followed up with another sentence.
This directly made the Angel God resolve to postpone the Angel God's Godly Trial.
"Angel God, don't you want the rank of the Angel God Position to increase?"
!!!
The Angel God thought about it.
That makes sense!
Why should the Angel God only be a Level 1 Principal God?
If she had been stronger back then and her God Position had reached that certain level...
...how could she have been killed by the Asura God?
Thinking of this, the Angel God looked up at the sky.
A cold light flashed in her eyes.
"Fine! I agree to postpone the Godly Trial!"
"Qian Renxue, come back to accept the Godly Trial after your Martial Soul has evolved into its final form!"
"I am currently just a wisp of a remnant soul and cannot manifest for long."
"Farewell."
With that said,
the Angel God dissipated into light and fell back into a deep slumber.
Jin Mian then said to Qian Daoliu, "By the way, Great Grandfather, Xiao Xue's current level has reached the peak of level 50. Tomorrow, let's take her to hunt for a Soul Ring."
"Because Xiao Xue absorbed two Immortal Herbs, her Martial Soul evolved and her physique has been greatly enhanced. For her fifth ring, we can consider a 100,000-year spirit ring!"
"Of course, if we can't find a suitable 100,000-year spirit ring, a 90,000-year one would be fine too."
Qian Daoliu nodded.
As for the risks of a 100,000-year spirit ring,
he wasn't particularly worried.
After all, Jin Mian's example of absorbing a 100,000-year spirit ring for his fifth ring was right there in front of him.
Having finished, Jin Mian looked at Qian Renxue again. "Xiao Xue, come to my room in a bit. I'll teach you something."
Qian Renxue asked curiously, "What is it?"
"You'll find out in a bit," Jin Mian said with a mysterious smile.
Then he led Qian Renxue toward his room.
And the thing he wanted to teach Qian Renxue...
...was an internal cultivation technique he had previously obtained through the system's check-in.
The Jade Maiden Heart Sutra.
Of course, he didn't intend to engage in dual cultivation with Qian Renxue.
After all, they were still at their current ages.
Although the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra allows for dual cultivation between a man and a woman,
the 'Yin advancement' within the technique is more suitable for women to practice.
If Qian Renxue masters it, her future combat power will surely reach new heights...
