Leaving the Angel Secret Realm

Thinking about it, Lu Yuan stood up.

Under the glow of Sacred Golden Flames, Lu Yuan took a few steps and soon reached the edge of the Ninth Heavenly Stair.

With a light leap, he landed on the Eighth Heavenly Stair.

At this moment, Qian Renxue was cultivating on the Eighth Heavenly Stair.

The pressure of the Eighth Heavenly Stair was already immense. Qian Renxue had only been up there for a short time, and it was clear that she was in some pain. However, Qian Renxue was Qian Renxue after all; she was stubborn and could endure pain. So, although the Sacred Light Body Forging was painful and the pressure was so great that she could hardly breathe, she still gritted her teeth and persevered.

Qian Renxue was in the midst of a difficult cultivation, her entire spirit and will fighting a desperate battle against the immense pain. Therefore, she did not notice that Lu Yuan had already come down.

Lu Yuan did not disturb Qian Renxue's thoughts. He sat cross-legged not far from Qian Renxue, his expression peaceful. Having experienced the torment of the Ninth Heavenly Stair's Sacred Golden Flames Body Forging, he felt no pressure or temperature from the Eighth Heavenly Stair at all.

It's incredibly easy.

Lu Yuan's Double Pupils flickered slightly as he sized up Qian Renxue.

Although the two had been alone together for three months, Lu Yuan was not tired of Qian Renxue at all. On the contrary, he became more and more obsessed with Qian Renxue's charm.

Qian Renxue is currently wearing a long dress woven from the silk of Millennial Ice Silk. The dress is white overall, but it has an ice-blue light that occasionally flashes.

Perhaps due to her Martial Soul spirit, Qian Renxue's previous clothing style tended to be golden, and her temperament was also more sacred and noble.

But now, Qian Renxue, dressed in this snow-white dress that shimmers with ice-blue light, gives Lu Yuan a different feeling.

Cold and pure, Qian Renxue, wearing this long dress, truly embodies the ultimate in purity.

"My Xue'er is still so beautiful, I can never get enough of looking at her," Lu Yuan sighed softly.

As if hearing Lu Yuan's soft sigh, Qian Renxue, who had been cultivating, suddenly opened her eyes, revealing a pair of golden eyes as clear as water.

His golden eyes were somewhat dim, revealing a sense of weariness. Fighting against pain and pressure for a long time is actually very mentally taxing, and once mental energy is depleted to a certain extent, one will feel extremely tired.

"You've finished cultivating?" Seeing Qian Renxue open her eyes, Lu Yuan couldn't help but stand up, walk to her side and squat down. A dense white light emanated from Lu Yuan 'Qian Renxue hand and enveloped Qian Renxue.

Under the influence of the Pure Qi Divine Power, Qian Renxue quickly recovered, and the fatigue in her eyes disappeared completely.

"Hmm, you've finished your cultivation too?" Qian Renxue blinked her beautiful eyes and asked softly.

"Yes, I've finished my training too. I'm confident I can hold out for twelve hours on the Ninth Heavenly Stair," Lu Yuan said with a smile.

"You're really amazing. It's all my fault for holding you back. Otherwise, you could have completed the assessment by now, shortening the one-year time limit to three months in just a quarter of the time. If you had completed the assessment now, the reward would have been exceptionally generous. But because of me, it will have to be delayed quite a bit."

"Xiao Yuan, am I really useless?"

Qian Renxue looked up at Lu Yuan with a faint sense of guilt on her face. If she hadn't dragged him down, Lu Yuan could have received a much better reward.

It's all her fault for being so useless. It's been three months and she's only just climbed to the Eighth Heavenly Stair, making Xiao Yuan waste a lot of time waiting for her.

"Who said you're useless? My Xue'er is the best! She reached the Eighth Heavenly Stair in just three months. To be honest, Xue'er, you have every reason to be proud. At your current rate, you should be able to complete the second assessment in about six months, a full six months ahead of schedule. How can you say you're useless?"

"Besides, I don't really care about the reward or not. It's just a matter of increasing the Soul Ring Lifespan a little. With my current Soul Ring configuration, would I care about a mere few hundred years of age increase?"

"So Xue'er, don't overthink it!"

Lu Yuan said gently.

"Mmm!" Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Qian Renxue nodded slightly, feeling much better. She lunged forward and snuggled into Lu Yuan's arms.

With his left hand outstretched, he embraced Qian Renxue's delicate body, while with his right hand raised, Lu Yuan gently stroked Qian Renxue's smooth, long golden hair.

"Xue'er, I have to go out soon. The finals of the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament are coming soon. Zhu Qing and the others should be on their way with their teams. I have to go out and lead them in the competition. I promised them this. As for you, do you want to stay here to continue your assessment, or do you want to come out with me?"

Lu Yuan asked softly.

"I'll stay here and continue the assessment," Qian Renxue said firmly, her golden eyes flashing.

"Alright then, you can stay here for the assessment. But there's one thing you need to be careful about: you absolutely cannot go up the Ninth Heavenly Stair while I'm not here."

Lu Yuan's eyes were filled with seriousness.

"Okay, I understand," Qian Renxue nodded and said.

"That's good." Lu Yuan smiled slightly, then gently kissed Qian Renxue's red lips and said, "Then I'll go out first."

"Go!" Qian Renxue said softly.

"Then I'm leaving, here you go!" As he spoke, a flash of light appeared between his brows, and the Heart of the Sea God appeared in Lu Yuan's hand. The brilliant blue light flashed, forcing back the surrounding Angel's Sacred Light and forming a blue domain with a diameter of two meters. Lu Yuan and Qian Renxue's figures were completely enveloped by this blue domain.

"The Heart of the Sea God?" Qian Renxue was taken aback when she saw what Lu Yuan had given her, and asked in surprise.

"Yes, the Vast Sea Power in the Heart of the Sea God also has the effect of healing injuries and restoring mental strength. When I'm not around, you can use it to recover. Your bloodline also contains Pure Qi Divine Power. Although it's a bit difficult to activate the power of the Heart of the Sea God, it's enough to just mobilize some of the Vast Sea Divine Power for recovery."

As he spoke, Lu Yuan handed the Heart of the Sea God to Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue subconsciously accepted the Heart of the Sea God.

Seeing Qian Renxue accept the Heart of the Sea God, Lu Yuan smiled slightly, pinched her delicate nose, and then released her body. Golden Dragon phantom appeared beneath his feet, and a loud dragon roar rang out. Lu Yuan's figure transformed into a golden stream of light and headed directly towards the entrance of the Angel Secret Realm.

Within the Angel Temple, a golden vortex appeared, and Lu Yuan's figure stepped out from it.

As the Golden Dragon Armor slowly faded away, Lu Yuan changed into a new Cloud Silk Robe, instantly exuding an elegant and dashing aura.

"Let's go back to the Lake Heart Island first. I don't know if my senior sister is still there. Apart from the first few days, I haven't seen her for three months. She must miss me a lot. So I'll go to the Lake Heart Island to see her. I hope she's still there."

Lu Yuan murmured to himself, then his figure flashed, and he left the Angel Temple, flying swiftly towards the Lake Heart Island.
