Seeing her grandfather's solemn expression, Qian Renxue's heart tightened.
She knew her grandfather always had a keen eye; since he valued Qian Renshang so much, it meant that Qian Renshang posed a far greater threat than she had previously thought.
"Grandpa, then... then what should we do? Qian Renshang's strength has greatly increased now, and he has the help of those soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest.
How easy is it to deal with him?"
Qian Renxue's tone was tinged with helplessness and worry.
Qian Daoliu stopped, his gaze fixed on the dome of the Angel Temple, as if he could see Qian Renshang's figure in the distant Star Dou Great Forest through those solid barriers.
"Xue'er, we mustn't rush this. Since Qian Renshang possesses such a terrifying martial soul, his growth potential is limitless.
If we act rashly, a single misstep could lead to total defeat."
Qian Daoliu turned to Qian Renxue, his expression serious.
"You should focus on recovering your injuries and regaining your strength as soon as possible.
I will summon the elders of the Spirit Hall to discuss countermeasures.
As long as Qian Renshang remains, the Spirit Hall and even the entire Douluo Continent will never have peace."
Qian Renxue bit her lip and nodded emphatically. "Yes, Grandpa.
I will recover as soon as possible and fight Qian Renshang again."
Afterward, Qian Daoliu hurriedly left the Angel Temple and headed to the Spirit Hall's council hall.
The moment he stepped into the hall, the elders who had been conversing fell silent, their eyes all turning to Qian Daoliu.
From Qian Daoliu's gloomy expression, they already sensed that something extremely serious had occurred.
"Elders, I have summoned you all here today to discuss a matter of life and death concerning the Spirit Hall,"
Qian Daoliu said solemnly, his gaze sweeping over each face.
"Qian Renshang, possessing the twelve-winged Fallen Angel spirit, has become the greatest threat to our Spirit Hall.
Xue'er just fought him and suffered a crushing defeat."
Upon hearing this, the elders erupted in uproar. "What? Princess Qian Renxue was defeated? This… how is this possible!"
One elder exclaimed in disbelief.
"Hmph, what's impossible? Qian Renshang's twelve-winged Fallen Angel spirit is said to be effective against Xue'er's six-winged Angel spirit, and his strength has grown extremely rapidly, exceeding our expectations."
Qian Daoliu snorted coldly, a shadow of gloom flashing in his eyes.
"Great Elder, what should we do? Qian Renshang is so powerful, and with the help of the Star Dou Great Forest spirit beasts, dealing with him will be extremely difficult," another elder said, frowning with worry.
Qian Daoliu frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "We cannot fight alone. Now, we need to unite all forces to jointly confront Qian Renshang.
At the same time, we must also improve the strength of the Spirit Hall from within, cultivating more powerful individuals.
Furthermore, send people to closely monitor Qian Renshang's every move, and report to me immediately if there is any news."
The elders nodded in agreement with Qian Daoliu's proposal.
"Rest assured, Great Elder, we will do our utmost to assist the Spirit Hall in resolving this great threat, Qian Renshang."
Thus, under Qian Daoliu's leadership, the Spirit Hall began to prepare intensively for its plan to confront Qian Renshang.
Meanwhile, Qian Renshang was completely unaware of the undercurrents within the Spirit Hall.
At this moment, he was in the City of Slaughter, his feet slowly leaving the ground, his body gradually rising into the air.
Once he reached a certain height, he hovered silently in the air, his cold gaze surveying the vast City of Slaughter.
This city, filled with blood and sin, was a scene of ruined buildings, bloodstains on the streets, and a nauseating stench of decay permeating the air.
Everywhere one looked, there were figures engaged in carnage; everywhere one could hear desperate screams and mad roars.
