Ye Feiyang's Adam's apple bobbed twice as he replied truthfully, "A peerless beauty, graceful and elegant. You are the most beautiful woman I've ever seen."

This hit Qian Renxue right in the heart. She was exceptionally pleased, especially hearing it from Ye Feiyang, which filled her with joy.

Hmph, this scoundrel, I'll bewitch you!

She took another step closer, raised an eyebrow, and asked, "Now, do you still want to take me as your disciple?"

Ye Feiyang wouldn't let her control the conversation. He quickly regained his composure, "Little Xue'er, as the esteemed young mistress of the Martial Soul Hall, are you going back on your word?"

Qian Renxue let out a scoff, "The one who wanted to become your disciple back then was Xue Qinghe, what does that have to do with me, Qian Renxue?"

Ye Feiyang was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand and cupped her chin, adopting a domineering CEO stance. "Since that's the case, I'll give you an opportunity: defeat me, and you can do whatever you want with me. If you lose, you'll have to obey me obediently."

Having her chin held like this, Qian Renxue's cheeks inexplicably flushed.

She slapped his hand away, her tone carrying a hint of awkwardness. "Why would I fight you? I'm not stupid. With my current strength... I'm no match for you."

If she didn't know how terrifying Ye Feiyang's strength was, she wouldn't have easily admitted her inferiority.

"Since you know my identity, are you still insisting on taking me as your disciple?" Qian Renxue pressed, wanting to understand his true intentions.

Ye Feiyang, however, changed the subject. "How about you take a step back and become my girlfriend?"

Qian Renxue was instantly overwhelmed. She had wanted to have a serious conversation, but he kept teasing her with such words.

"You, can you be serious for once! I'm being sincere." She bit her lip, her tone laced with a hint of anger.

"I'm not joking either. Every word is from the heart." Ye Feiyang's eyes were sincere.

Qian Renxue was silent for a moment, then finally compromised. "I'll agree to be your disciple. As for being your girlfriend, let's forget it! Actually, I've been secretly observing you, and you... you're a bit too much of a playboy." Her tone was full of dissatisfaction when she said the last few words.

Ye Feiyang didn't care about her little temper tantrum. Want me to coax you? Not a chance.

"Fine, then become my disciple now."

Qian Renxue frowned, feeling a little disappointed. Why didn't this man persist a little longer?

Ye Feiyang didn't say the response she most wanted to hear, leaving her feeling empty and unsettled.

She glared at Ye Feiyang and asked irritably, "Hmph, how do I become your disciple?"

"According to tradition, you should kneel and offer tea... but since the conditions are limited now, we'll simplify it. Just call me 'Teacher' directly," Ye Feiyang said, making an exception for the circumstances.

Although Qian Renxue was somewhat reluctant, she still bowed slightly and whispered, "Teacher."

Upon hearing this, Ye Feiyang burst into laughter. He then took out a sword-leaf-shaped bracelet from his storage space and personally put it on her.

"This bracelet is both an accessory and has storage functions. All my personal disciples have one; it's a token of our relationship."

"Mhm, Little Xue'er looks really good wearing it." He held her hand, not letting go for a long time.

Qian Renxue let him hold her hand, watching him put the bracelet on her. She thought to herself, This scene is so much like a proposal.

As soon as the bracelet was on, Ye Feiyang suddenly said, "Little Xue'er, wait for me for a moment. I need some quiet time."

At the same time, a system prompt sounded the moment the bracelet was successfully worn:

[Qian Renxue's Information Panel Expanded:] Name: Qian Renxue Qualification Rating: SS-Class Martial Soul: Six-Winged Angel Current Soul Power: Level 70 Soul Ring Configuration: Yellow, Yellow, Purple, Purple, Black, Black [Qian Renxue's System Deep Analysis Complete!

[Compatibility Assessment: Perfect Fit! This disciple's potential is extraordinary. The condensing characteristic of the technique highly resonates with the 'Creation' and 'Order' authorities she currently wields, efficiently converting high-level divine power into a form that possesses both destructiveness and protective capabilities. It is the optimal foundational skill combination for unleashing her God King-level potential.] [Genesis Blazing God Art Core Ultimate Skill Summary:] Primordial God Body: Reshapes the physical body with primordial star light and primordial creation energy, laying the foundation for a Genesis God Body. A minor energy circulation forms within the body, gradually transforming sacred soul power into higher-level creation divine power, making life force and recovery capabilities approach immortality.

When attacking, it can directly sever the target's energy circulation rules, soul skill connections, and causal bonds, with effects of purification and annihilation at the law level. Damage to beings that violate laws increases exponentially. God Kingdom Dawn: Unfolds a God Kingdom domain containing one's own creation laws. Within the domain, one is like a creation god, defining light and order. It can rewrite some basic rules within the domain (such as suppressing non-sacred attributes, accelerating divine power recovery), grant allies the 'Order Protection' status, purify all non-divine negative effects on a large scale, and provide allies with deep healing and status recovery based on creation life force. God's Advent: Genesis Blazing Angel: Awakens the Seraphim origin, bringing oneself infinitely close to the true Genesis God race form. All attributes experience a leapfrog improvement, and all ability effects are simultaneously sublimated. Ultimate Divine Power - Source Core Divine Silence: Uses one's own creation divinity as a guide, communicates with the Source Core of Creation, and descends judgment power containing the intent of finality. It can completely decompose and trace back targets from energy, matter, to traces of existence to their origin, as if they never existed. This divine power is extremely potent but also places a significant burden on oneself.

After browsing through the system information, Ye Feiyang's face showed astonishment. Isn't this cultivation technique too powerful? He couldn't help but glance enviously at Qian Renxue.

No, I must have this woman!

While there are regrets: although this cultivation method is powerful, it is by no means easy to cultivate it to the point where these skills can be fully utilized.

Thinking of this, Ye Feiyang couldn't help but sneer—this damn system, the cultivation method it provided was arguably the strongest so far, but any discerning person could see it was exclusive to the Angel race.

But there was also something that made him happy: he finally possessed his first hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring! The combined age of Qian Renxue's six Soul Rings had just raised his sixth Soul Ring to the hundred-thousand-year level.

He instantly felt the Soul Power within his body become more abundant, but he was puzzled: why had the previous Martial Soul Advancement Pill turned into an Origin Essence Pill? Did Qian Renxue's Martial Soul no longer need to evolve?

Exiting the system interface, Ye Feiyang saw Qian Renxue staring at him with her beautiful eyes wide open.

Just right, he couldn't wait to help Qian Renxue complete her transformation.

Hahaha, hurry up and be so moved that you throw yourself into my arms!

"Hehe~~ My good disciple, Little Xue'er, come, open your mouth!" Ye Feiyang held a pill the size of a ping pong ball in his hand and offered it to Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue looked closely and instinctively took two steps back, asking vigilantly, "What are you doing? What is this thing? It's so big, and you want to stuff it into my mouth?"

"This pill is delicious, don't you feel an urge to eat it right away?" Ye Feiyang coaxed.

Qian Renxue shook her head vigorously: "No, not at all!"

Ye Feiyang was stunned—this wasn't right, why was her reaction so different from Xiao Wu's and Ning Rongrong's reactions back then?

But he clearly noticed Qian Renxue's Adam's apple move inadvertently, and she secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Therefore, Ye Feiyang pinched her chin at extreme speed and stuffed the pill directly into her mouth.

Qian Renxue was about to react when the pill instantly dissolved in her mouth, turning into a warm stream of energy that surged towards the location of her Martial Soul.

Only then did she realize Ye Feiyang wasn't joking. Without even bothering to speak, she quickly sat down cross-legged and circulated her Soul Power to guide the medicinal effects.

The immense medicinal power brought no pain at all; instead, it was like a warm current returning to its origin, enveloping her Martial Soul.

Qian Renxue could clearly sense that her Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul seemed to have been thrown into a furnace made of the purest light and divine laws.

Her Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul manifested on its own, trembling violently within a divine cocoon of light, slowly decomposing and dissolving, scattering like dust in the wind—but this was only the beginning of the transformation.

The old form was thoroughly broken, and more complex, more powerful divine patterns appeared on the surface of the light cocoon.

As time passed, the light cocoon finally shattered, and the original Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul transformed into the new "Supreme - Genesis Blazing Angel" form!

A majestic divine pressure instantly swept in all directions. Qian Renxue was like a second sun rising in the sky, so dazzling that all surrounding beings couldn't help but feel a sense of submission.

Even Ye Feiyang was stunned by this scene—even though he had witnessed the Martial Soul Evolution of his first five disciples, their combined transformations hadn't brought the same impact as Qian Renxue's metamorphosis this time.

It was completely unexpected, was this the effect of the Origin Essence Pill?

Thinking that he still had three more such pills in his hand, Ye Feiyang's heart bloomed with joy—he wondered what changes Tang Yuehua would undergo after taking one?

Fortunately, this place was remote and it was late at night; otherwise, such a large disturbance might have attracted unnecessary trouble.

Of course, even if there were trouble, Ye Feiyang was confident he could resolve it with a single sword strike.

At this moment, Qian Renxue was so shocked by her own changes that she couldn't speak.

No one knew better than her what she had just experienced—her transformation was far more than what was visible on the surface.

Her "status" had been elevated, from a messenger of the gods to a member of the creation god race; her abilities had undergone a qualitative change, with her power attribute transforming from pure divinity to the level of rules touching upon order and creation; her potential had also greatly increased, and her path to becoming a God King was now wide open.

The Martial Soul's sublimation also brought new abilities: her original divine flame had evolved into the Genesis Sacred Flame, which added the attribute of order rules. It could interfere with, correct, or even establish battlefield rules within a small area to some extent—for example, prohibiting teleportation or the use of Martial Soul Fusion Skills within her domain.

Even her original core Soul Skills had undergone a synchronized transformation, with greatly enhanced power:

Angel AssaultHoly Verdict Grip

Wings of EmptinessDivinity Walk

Angel RoarDivine Decree Judgment

Angel True BodySeraphim Descent

Angel DomainGenesis Light God Kingdom

This Genesis Light God Kingdom was extraordinary—within this domain, as long as Qian Renxue's divine soul was not extinguished, even if her physical body was destroyed, she could reshape it by consuming her origin power.

As for other more subtle changes, they would not be detailed here one by one. If interested, you can directly ask Qian Renxue herself; otherwise, it would just be filler...

When Qian Renxue fully understood her changes, her beautiful eyes widened, and she stared intently at Ye Feiyang, her gaze so fervent as if she wanted to devour him.

This man had given her an unbelievable surprise, allowing her to complete a thorough transformation.

Wait, she hadn't fully transformed yet—she hadn't truly become a "woman"!

Ye Feiyang exclaimed beside her, "Awesome, so awesome! So powerful, truly powerful!"

He was genuinely envious of Qian Renxue. Although his voice was low, Qian Renxue heard it clearly.

Qian Renxue smiled, instantly exuding charm, which made Ye Feiyang a little dazed.

But the next second, Qian Renxue stood up, a holy sword appearing in her hand, its tip pointed directly at Ye Feiyang: "Feiyang, shall we have a match now?"

Ye Feiyang thought she would thank him, but unexpectedly, she wanted to fight?

"Do you really want to fight me?" He was somewhat surprised.

Qian Renxue smiled slyly, the holy sword in her hand glowing. Her original pure white wings transformed into three pairs of divine wings burning with blazing light: "Of course, I really want to swing my sword at you right now..."

"Rebellious disciple! You dare to attack your master right after becoming my disciple? Don't you want the good fortune that comes later?" Ye Feiyang deliberately put on a stern face.

Qian Renxue paused, her eyes lighting up. "There's more good fortune to come?"

Ye Feiyang nodded vigorously. "Naturally! Didn't I say I'd make you 'fly to the heavens'? Did you think I was joking?"

"If you really want to fight, you can, but we need to add a wager." He sneered inwardly—this woman was getting ahead of herself just because she'd gotten stronger!

The Martial Soul Evolution had given Qian Renxue immense confidence. She now firmly believed she could have a good spar with Ye Feiyang.

She agreed without hesitation. "What's the wager?"

A hint of slyness flashed in Ye Feiyang's eyes. "If I win, from now on, you belong only to me. No jealousy, no scolding me, no hitting me. You must truly love me, cherish me, and care for me. You have to do whatever I tell you to do... that's all I can think of for now."

Qian Renxue's lips twitched slightly—this scoundrel, was he so sure he could win against her?

"And what if I win?" she pressed.

"Heh heh, if you win, I'll be at your mercy, and I won't resist at all." Ye Feiyang smiled with utter composure.

"Fine! You said it! If I win, from now on, you'll only belong to me," Qian Renxue declared immediately.

Ye Feiyang chuckled. "Deal."

He made a "please" gesture, a smile on his lips. "You go first!"

Qian Renxue didn't want to lose this wager. Her six Soul Rings instantly spread out from beneath her feet, their light flowing as a sacred aura permeated the air.

Ye Feiyang also didn't want to lose. His eight Soul Rings appeared, especially the blinding blood-red of his sixth Soul Ring, which was particularly eye-catching.

Both held a determination to win—the outcome of this duel would determine who held the dominant position in the future.

Furthermore, Ye Feiyang had just seen that after taking the Origin Essence Pill, Qian Renxue's talent rating had directly risen to SSS-rank. Such a talent, he had to keep a firm grip on!

Upon seeing Ye Feiyang's Soul Ring configuration, Qian Renxue's eyes widened instantly, utterly shocked. She muttered, "Purple, purple, purple, purple, black, red, black, black... What kind of Soul Ring configuration is this? Ye Feiyang, you're too monstrous!"

"No, something's wrong! The last time I saw you, your Soul Rings weren't like this at all!" she suddenly realized, her tone full of confusion.

Ye Feiyang smiled and replied, "If you can beat me, I'll tell you all my secrets."

As soon as he finished speaking, his voice suddenly deepened, and he spoke calmly, "Eighth Soul Skill: Sword Seed: Heart Reflection of the Universe—Plant Sword!"

A faint sword light flashed and disappeared, silently entering Qian Renxue's body—with this Sword Seed, he was already in an invincible position.

Although Qian Renxue's Martial Soul had undergone a transformation and was of an extremely high tier, Ye Feiyang's Martial Soul had stood at the pinnacle from the very beginning.

What a joke, his Martial Soul was a deity among grass-type Martial Souls, commonly known as the "Grass God."

The strength of the "Grass God" was, in a sense, self-evident.

Qian Renxue cursed Ye Feiyang for not fighting honorably and grunted, "Genesis Light God Kingdom!"

A vast domain instantly unfolded, enveloping both of them. The sacred light almost seemed to devour everything.

"Fifth Soul Skill: Boundless Sword Tomb." Ye Feiyang, unwilling to be outdone, also unleashed his domain.

With both domains active simultaneously, the space trembled slightly, and their figures became blurry, darting rapidly within the domains. In an instant, sword light crisscrossed, and energy surged, marking the fierce commencement of their duel.

"No flying!" Qian Renxue was the first to activate her domain's rules, attempting to restrict Ye Feiyang's movements.

"Heh heh~~ Disciple, are you stupid? I'm using Qinggong (lightness skill), not a flying skill. Your rule can't stop me~" Ye Feiyang's voice echoed from various points within the domain, laced with a hint of mockery.

"You, you're cheating!" Qian Renxue was both angry and anxious, but helpless.
