Chapter 1 The Fallen Genius! Renxue's Soul Bone Was Extracted?! The Daoist's Face Change!
"Soul Power, Level 3!"
With the announcement of Golden Crocodile Douluo, the entire hall fell into a deathly silence.
Qian Renxue stared at the soul power crystal ball.
The faint light that remained inside was like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment, just like her last shred of pride.
She slowly withdrew her hand, tucked it into her sleeve, lowered her head, and remained silent.
He turned and walked out of the hall.
However, her hands inside her sleeves were already clenched into fists, her nails digging deep into her palms, but she seemed oblivious.
Five years ago, she was on a covert mission in the Heavenly Dou Empire.
One morning I woke up,
His soul power mysteriously plummeted from the Soul King realm to the Soul Venerable realm.
It's like there's an invisible hole in her body; no matter how many rare and precious herbs she consumes or how frantically she cultivates, it's all useless.
The soul power continued to dissipate mysteriously.
Poison Sting Douluo and Serpent Spear Douluo were terrified, examining the body countless times but still unable to find the cause.
I thought I had been hit by some kind of vicious soul skill.
They secretly sent her back to the Spirit Hall overnight.
Even with the combined power of the entire Spirit Hall, there was still no solution.
Even if Qian Daoliu personally intervened and invoked the power of the angels to baptize her, it would not change anything.
"Xiaoxue..."
Looking at the girl's dejected figure, Light Feather Douluo raised his hand, wanting to say a few words of comfort, but the words stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter a single word.
Even the worshippers couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
With innate soul power at level 20, she is the most dazzling genius in the history of the Spirit Hall, a girl they watched grow up.
But now...
I had already guessed the ending, but when I actually witnessed it with my own eyes...
Still feeling uneasy, they couldn't bear to look any longer and turned their heads away.
at this time,
A completely emotionless voice suddenly rang out:
"Xiaoxue is here today, perfect timing, I have something to announce."
The one speaking was Qian Daoliu.
He stood beneath the towering statue of an angel, his face cold and handsome.
The gazes of all the worshippers immediately turned towards that direction.
Even Qian Renxue's steps faltered involuntarily.
"Three days later, I will bestow the angelic armor from Xiaoxue upon Qianye!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire hall fell silent.
"I disagree!"
The Light Feather Douluo's eyes widened in anger, and he jumped up immediately.
"Big brother! Xiaoxue is your own granddaughter! How could you treat her like this?"
"Soul bone! After the soul bone is removed, will she still be alive?"
How could you be so heartless!
Followed by,
A handsome young man wearing a golden robe with the crest of a six-winged angel family embroidered on his chest.
He walked quickly out from behind the worshippers.
He knelt heavily on the ground, his voice excited and earnest:
"A grand offering, absolutely not!"
"I know you're thinking of the Spirit Hall's future, but I absolutely cannot do it at the cost of sacrificing the young master. I will never agree to it!"
Qian Renxue also turned around abruptly, looking at Qian Daoliu in disbelief, a glimmer of hope still lingering in her eyes, hoping that she had misheard.
However, Qian Daoliu didn't even glance at her, his gaze remaining coldly fixed straight ahead.
"The Angelic Armor is not only the most precious treasure of my Qian family, but also a legacy of the Spirit Hall. How can we allow our personal interests to jeopardize the interests of the entire Spirit Hall?"
Qian Daoliu seemed to have considered everything thoroughly, and spoke without the slightest hesitation.
"As for Xiaoxue's safety..."
"Normally, stripping away one's soul bone would at best cause a decline in cultivation, and at worst, loss of life. But with the protection of angelic divine power, her life can naturally be saved!"
"grandfather……"
Upon hearing this,
The tears that had been welling up in Qian Renxue's eyes finally rolled down her cheeks.
She wiped away her tears, turned abruptly, and stumbled out.
"Xiaoxue! Your grandfather—"
When Guangling Douluo saw the direction Qian Renxue had left in, he was so anxious that he jumped up and down, but in the blink of an eye, she had disappeared.
"Third brother... second brother... you should try to persuade eldest brother!!!"
However, Golden Crocodile Douluo and the others seemed not to hear, turning their faces away indifferently.
before this,
Qian Daoliu has already spoken with some of them, and everyone has made their decision.
Moreover,
Some people had already sided with Qianye.
At this point, there was naturally no reason for them to speak up and stop them.
"Without the Angelic Armor, how will Xiaoxue carry out her infiltration mission within the Heavenly Dou Empire?"
"I am," Guangling Douluo said urgently, still making a final effort for Qian Renxue.
Qian Daoliu, however, remained calm and said:
"It has the same camouflage effect as the Angelic Armor; it would be the same if given to Qianye."
"Alright, my mind is made up. There's no need for further discussion!"
"Brother, you, you all...sigh!"
The Radiant Feather Douluo pointed tremblingly at Qian Daoliu and the other elders, but couldn't utter a single word for a long time.
He could only stomp his foot heavily, angrily fling his sleeves and leave.
Qian Daoliu stood beneath the angel statue, silently watching the direction the two had left in.
There was no intention whatsoever to stop them.
Holy angelic light cascaded down upon him like a waterfall, enveloping him in a halo from head to toe.
But he could no longer feel any warmth.
Qian Renxue is his only granddaughter, the apple of his eye who watched him grow up.
Strip her of her soul bones
What difference is there between that and tearing out his heart?
But he had no choice but to do it.
Because he felt he was about to lose control of the woman.
He had originally placed all his hopes on Qian Renxue.
Let her cultivate in peace away from the Spirit Hall.
At the same time, he was monitoring Bibi Dong, using heavy workloads to slow down her cultivation progress.
He had everything under control.
As long as Qian Renxue becomes a god first, all problems can be solved.
But something went wrong with Qian Renxue!
A single hair can affect the whole body.
The lack of successors in the Qian family has allowed Bibi Dong's power to grow daily, putting increasing pressure on him and showing signs of shaking the foundation of the Spirit Hall.
So he had to change his plans.
He planned to perish together with Bibi Dong, sacrificing his old life to bring peace to the Spirit Hall.
But the one thing he couldn't let go of was Qian Renxue, and the Qian family.
After he died,
Qian Renxue, who possesses the Angel Set but is unable to cultivate, is bound to become the target of everyone's criticism.
Without a super strong expert to oversee them, the Qian family will inevitably lose its voice in the Spirit Hall.
Fortunately, the angels looked after them and left them with a glimmer of hope.
Qian Daoliu slowly turned his gaze to the young man who was lying prostrate on the ground, his back tense with nervousness, and his tone softened slightly:
"Good child, rise. From now on, you must never forget the ancestral teachings of your family and carry forward the glory of angels."
"I will heed the High Priest's instructions! Qianye will forever remember them, and will never forget them, nor will I ever ...!"
Qianye stood up and solemnly promised.
He knew, of course, that Qian Daoliu was asking him for a favor on behalf of Qian Renxue.
She wanted him to protect her from now on.
But... how is that possible?
He was only a year or two older than Qian Renxue, and before she awakened her martial spirit, he was the number one genius of the Qian family.
But Qian Renxue's innate level 20 soul power directly stole all his brilliance, making it hard for him to breathe!
He was reduced to a background figure overnight.
That feeling, that trace of resentment...
He endured it for more than a decade.
And now, my wish has finally come true!
But this was only his first step.
As long as the Thousand Streams still exist.
He will remain humble as always, but he doesn't believe that the old man can live forever!
Seeing how sensible he was, Qian Daoliu's anxiety finally subsided.
Without the Angel Set,
Furthermore, with the care of Qianye, the successor of the Spirit Hall,
In addition, I deliberately distanced myself.
Before long, Xiaoxue will fade from everyone's sight and live out her life peacefully.
The deeper the love, the more far-reaching the plans.
As for those misunderstandings... let them remain misunderstandings!
In case he passes away someday,
This only added another layer of sorrow to her grief!
