Capítulo 4: Chapter 3: The Remnant Soul of Qian Renxue, Recognized as Master by Qian Renxue
"Let's first take a look at my precious divine weapon," Qian Ran thought. Besides the Six-Winged Angel martial spirit, he also had the Angelic Sacred Sword.
This was a true divine weapon! It was on the same level as the Sea God's Trident! And as the system mentioned, this great sword had some hidden perks.
Retrieving the Angelic Sacred Sword from the system space, Qian Ran infused it with soul power, and a golden sword aura burst out, instantly slicing through two large trees, each needing three people to encircle, with a cut as smooth as glass.
"Not bad. This divine weapon will probably show its true strength once I become the Angel God. Only then will divine power fully unleash the Angelic Sacred Sword's power!"
"But where can I find the inheritance of the Angel God? The last Angel God, Qian Renxue, had her godhood shattered, and it's likely the inheritance was severed."
Just as Qian Ran was musing, a golden figure emerged from the Angelic Sacred Sword.
She was breathtakingly beautiful, with a mature elegance.
The woman appeared to be in her early twenties, with skin as fair as snow, a straight nose, and delicate, slightly narrow phoenix eyes that held a quiet dignity. Between her brows was a small Six-Winged Angel mark.
Her golden eyes were calm, and she wore a golden palace dress, simple and elegant, seemingly woven with golden threads, with an ancient and graceful design. Her long, golden hair flowed loosely down her back. The beautiful golden-haired woman was also staring at Qian Ran in astonishment.
Could it be…?
"Qian Renxue?" Qian Ran was stunned.
No way, is this the system's hidden perk?
The system really gets me.
While he had found Tang Ya beautiful before, Qian Ran now felt that Qian Renxue was the most beautiful woman in the world. She was gorgeous in every way, surpassing Tang Ya in both appearance and figure. More importantly, it was her aura—Qian Renxue had a holy and untouchable quality after becoming a god.
This unique aura made a daring thought bubble up in Qian Ran's mind.
The system really looked out for him, even bringing him Qian Renxue. If he played his cards right, would he have a chance with her?
"How much time has passed?" Qian Renxue asked, sensing the Six-Winged Angel martial spirit in Qian Ran. She seemed delighted to meet him. She had been dormant for many years, but Qian Ran had awakened her.
"Ten thousand years have passed since the Divine War. Spirit Hall disappeared from the continent ten thousand years ago. Now, Shrek Academy is the soul master holy land on the continent, and many powerful figures come from Shrek Academy. The Heaven Dou Empire split into the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Dou Spirit Empire, while the Star Luo Empire remains intact. Besides that, there's also a Sun Moon Empire..."
Qian Ran relayed everything he knew about the Unrivaled Tang Sect era to her.
Ten thousand years… Everything had changed.
Qian Renxue sighed, feeling sorrow at Spirit Hall's fall and its absence from the continent.
"I never thought that even the evil soul masters could establish a major sect on the continent. Ridiculous," Qian Renxue said with a bitter smile. Back when Spirit Hall was in power, there were almost no evil soul masters on the continent. The Qian family's Six-Winged Angel martial spirit was the strongest light-attribute martial spirit, the nemesis of evil soul masters. And since Spirit Hall monitored soul masters everywhere, any evil soul masters found were immediately eliminated; they had no chance to rise.
"Qian Renxue, weren't you said to have fallen back then?" Qian Ran asked. To him, it was great news that Qian Renxue was still alive. She was familiar with Tang San, which would help him in his plans to bring down Tang San. Having a former Angel God on his side, sharing insights on becoming a god, gave him a powerful ally—and maybe a future wife. Though he didn't dare call her that yet; she might kill him for it. However, if Qian Renxue wanted to trample him with her jade-like feet, he wouldn't entirely mind…
"When my godhood shattered, I poured my last ounce of divine power into the Angelic Sacred Sword and sacrificed myself to become its sword spirit. As long as the Angelic Sword remains, my soul won't be erased."
Qian Renxue now existed as something akin to a sword spirit.
"I see."
Qian Ran understood. Tang San had been nearly impossible to kill back then; it made sense that the Angel God, Qian Renxue, would have a few contingencies.
"I can help you become stronger, but I have a condition," Qian Renxue said, fixing her gaze on Qian Ran. She wanted to find an inheritor who could defeat that person, and naturally, she would choose someone with the Six-Winged Angel spirit like Qian Ran!
"What's the condition?" Qian Ran swallowed nervously.
"First, help me rebuild Spirit Hall. Second, kill Tang San for me." At the mention of Tang San, Qian Renxue's beautiful face turned icy, her eyes full of killing intent.
She had spared Tang San so many times.
Yet Tang San took every opportunity without mercy, forcing her into a fate where she could only ever reach level 89 Soul Douluo, unable to ever rise again. How ruthless…
Qian Renxue had long since seen Tang San's true nature.
He knew that she would be utterly defenseless after Spirit Hall's fall, likely becoming nothing more than a collectible for people with twisted intentions. And yet he did this to her.
Her grandfather, mother, Golden Crocodile Douluo…
She had failed them all, failed the faith of millions in Spirit Hall, failed the soldiers who fought for the Wuhun Empire!
The hatred buried for ten thousand years made Qian Renxue want to tear Tang San apart. If it hadn't been for her own mercy back then, the continent's history would have been rewritten.
These years spent in the Angelic Sacred Sword had only deepened her regret and hatred toward Tang San.
She clung to life in the hope that someday, she would get her chance to kill Tang San.
This time, she would not make the same mistake.
"I accept."
Seeing the noble and beautiful Qian Renxue turn into this sorrowful figure, Qian Ran's heart ached. All his lecherous thoughts vanished, leaving only sympathy for her.
He was a fan of the first Douluo Dalu too, having read the story of Tang San's time countless times. But Spirit Hall's fate had been truly tragic.
After all…
When Spirit Hall was overthrown, the Holy Maiden could only preserve her dignity by ending her own life. Otherwise, she might have been reduced to a mere trophy, worse than death. Qian Renxue could sacrifice herself to the Angelic Sacred Sword, but Hu Liena was not so fortunate.
Thinking of Spirit Hall's former power and hearing Qian Renxue's story, Qian Ran couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow for her.
He truly felt for Qian Renxue. She had spared Tang San so many times. In their last encounter in the Star Dou Forest, she had even stopped fighting after being injured by Tang San's Guanyin Tear, hoping for a fair duel after he achieved godhood.
Fair? What fairness?
When Tang San died, the gods of the Divine Realm revived him. Qian Ran had cursed at that part of the story. Why would the gods help Tang San and not Qian Renxue? It was disgusting. Despite all the cheats, he still couldn't win, needing the help of the Asura God and other gods of the Divine Realm.
Under those circumstances, how could Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong stand a chance?
They claimed not to interfere with the mortal world, yet they revived Tang San over and over, helping him grow stronger again and again. What hypocrisy. Given the Divine Realm's bias, even if Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong killed Tang San in the Divine War, he'd probably be revived again.
