Angel God with Eight Wings (Please Keep Reading!)

Su Cheng watched the girl slowly walk toward him.

She wore an ancient yet elegant one-piece court gown woven from golden threads. Its high golden collar tightly covered her slender, snow-white neck.

Her long golden hair fell casually down her back, making her seem all the more free and natural. Her golden eyes were as still as water, without the slightest energy fluctuation.

Other than her stunning beauty, she looked like nothing more than an ordinary mortal woman.

Yet within those golden eyes, Su Cheng could clearly sense that she was completely different from before.

It was the majesty of a god.

Between Qian Renxue's brows was a tiny yet exceptionally distinct golden Six-Winged Angel mark.

Most peculiar of all, her feet were not touching the ground. She walked through the air, three inches above it.

The moment she looked at Su Cheng, Qian Renxue's previous calmness melted away like ice and snow, her expression caught somewhere between sorrow and joy.

Then she leaped forward and threw herself into his arms.

This time, Su Cheng did not resist. Instead, he wrapped an arm around her slender waist and patted her shoulder.

He knew that she had just undergone the Angel Ninth Trial. Her state of mind was surely unstable, and she needed help calming down.

And besides...

"Teacher, Grandpa is dead. To help me open the final trial, he burned himself away."

Her voice was choked with sobs, and tears dampened the front of Su Cheng's robe.

Su Cheng said nothing. He merely gently stroked the soft golden hair of the girl before him.

"Teacher, I only have you now."

"..." Su Cheng's fingers paused slightly at the ends of her hair before he softly said, "Yes. You still have me."

"So, the greatest obstacles in your ninth trial were illusory trials concerning desire, hatred, and fear, along with the pain of reforging your divine soul. Nothing else unexpected happened, and there was no danger to your life, correct?"

Su Cheng's gaze turned deep as he listened to Qian Renxue's account.

By then, Qian Renxue had also calmed down and begun describing the specific process of the Nine God Trials.

"That's right." The girl seated opposite him nodded firmly. "As you told me, I guarded my true heart and held onto the final trace of obsession in my heart. I managed to endure until the very end."

As she recalled the scenes from her divine trials, Qian Renxue's face softened.

Deep in her heart, one figure had long since occupied every corner.

"I see. I understand now."

Su Cheng sighed. It seemed that the Angel God Inheritance in the original timeline really had been tampered with.

In this Simulated World, however, there had been no interference from the God Realm.

Moreover, Transmigrator Tang San had not appeared. If so, was the soul that had transmigrated into Tang San truly the handiwork of the Asura God?

But given the Asura God's status, if that Tang Clan Tang San had truly been his chosen one, how could he have allowed the Sea God to snatch away his inheritor halfway through?

It was a complete mess.

The situation in the real world was likely far more complicated than he had imagined. He had to make plans and lay out his arrangements in advance.

"You should rest here for now. If nothing unexpected happens, Bibi Dong is also undergoing her final god trial. Starting tomorrow, I'll personally train you so that you can master the Angel God's power as quickly as possible."

Qian Renxue pressed her lips together and nodded.

Now that the moment of facing the truth was at hand, she instead began to feel nervous and lost.

Su Cheng glanced at her and said flatly, "I told you long ago that a true powerhouse is not merely strong in power, but strong in heart as well. If you still hold any expectations now, then you are not even qualified to face Bibi Dong."

"I understand."

Seeing determination return to Qian Renxue's eyes, Su Cheng said nothing more.

As for the deaths of the Three Great High Priests, he did not tell her for the time being.

After all, Qian Renxue had only just inherited her godhood, and her divine soul was still not stable enough.

She had gotten along well with the elders of the Worship Hall. If she suffered another shock now, it was hard to say what other consequences it might bring.

In the mountain range behind Spirit City, Qian Renxue hovered in midair with four pairs of wings spread behind her, a massive Angel Holy Sword in hand.

That was right. Compared to the original Angel God, Qian Renxue now had two additional wings.

They were the pair of External Soul Bones she had once obtained from the ten-thousand-year Holy Light Beast.

After she became a god, this pair of External Soul Bones had also successfully advanced into God-level Soul Bones.

Both of their abilities—Extreme Speed and Protection—had undergone tremendous improvements.

What she was doing now was the training plan Su Cheng had devised for her.

Qian Renxue had advanced too quickly, soaring from over rank seventy to god-level in less than three years.

No matter how solidly her foundation had been laid beforehand, there was still an element of forcing growth. Her foundation was certainly far less profound than Bibi Dong's, who possessed Twin Martial Souls and had undergone divine trials for more than a decade.

All they could do now was help her adapt as quickly as possible and make up for this weakness.

Since he did not know when Bibi Dong would emerge from seclusion, Su Cheng did not make an overly detailed plan. During these days, Qian Renxue had only one task.

While suppressing her divine power with all her strength, she was to relearn the basic sword forms.

She did not need to reach the point where she could wield great weight as if it were light, but she had to control every ounce of her strength as precisely as possible.

Standing atop the mountain, Su Cheng watched Qian Renxue repeatedly slash downward with the Angel Holy Sword in the sky and secretly nodded.

Sweat dripped from her like rain, her face flushed red, and strands of golden hair clung to her exquisite face. Yet she seemed wholly unaware, her eyes firm as she repeated the same movement again and again.

At this moment, Qian Renxue relied only on the basic strength granted by her divine body to wield her sword and did not use any divine power.

The Angel Holy Sword was already enormously burdensome. Without circulating divine power, every swing nearly required all of her strength.

Not to mention that she was flying in midair with no foothold beneath her feet. She also had to rely on the wings behind her to maintain her balance, making it even more difficult.

After continuing like this for a thousand slashes, Qian Renxue finally reached her physical limit.

She floated down before Su Cheng, staggering slightly the moment her feet touched the ground.

The training of recent days had indeed been extremely effective for her.

Her once-unstable divine power could now almost be circulated completely at will.

Yet Qian Renxue seemed dissatisfied. Frowning, she looked at Su Cheng.

"I can't comprehend the Sword Dao Domain at all."

"Heh." Su Cheng twitched the corner of his mouth, somewhat speechless.

"Do you know how many years I practiced the sword before I grasped even a trace of its true meaning? You've barely begun. If you can circulate your divine power freely and apply proper force techniques when attacking, that already counts as exceptional talent. Don't tell me you thought all that random hacking and slashing with a raised sword before this could be called swordsmanship?"

Qian Renxue pursed her lips but did not argue. She sat cross-legged on the ground and began circulating her divine power, silently recovering her strength.

About half an hour passed like this.

Su Cheng abruptly turned his head. Qian Renxue instantly opened her eyes as well, golden light flashing within them.

The two looked toward the Pope's Palace in Spirit City at the same time.

Bibi Dong had emerged from her divine trial!
