Angel Sanctuary

Qian Daoliu stood quietly before a statue, hands clasped together as if praying for something.

The Angel God atop the statue held a massive Golden Sword aloft, pointing straight at the heavens. Most strangely, a faint layer of Golden Flames seemed to swirl around the sword.

Suddenly, the statue stirred. The golden light around it abruptly intensified, accompanied by mist descending from the sky.

Thinking the Angel God had sent down a revelation, Qian Daoliu was instantly overjoyed. He dropped to his knees and worshipped the statue devoutly.

Only when the hazy mist gradually dispersed—

did Qian Daoliu see clearly and freeze in shock.

A little girl, around six years old, had descended before the Angel God's statue.

The girl was visibly bewildered. She looked around in panic, then glanced at her own tiny body.

Damn it, why had she turned into a little kid?

She looked at the man kneeling before her. He wore a simple gray robe, his features strikingly handsome. His golden eyes shone as brightly as the sun, while his golden hair fell casually behind his head.

He was incredibly handsome, refined and elegant—and he even had that golden-haired loser-dog vibe. Exactly Shen Nuonuo's type.

"Handsome guy, stop kneeling. Get up already. You are?" Shen Nuonuo smiled at him.

Seeing this girl descend amid a golden phenomenon, Qian Daoliu was certain it was an instruction from the Angel God!

"I am Qian Daoliu, Elder Hall Master. May I ask who you are, Your Excellency?"

Qian Daoliu's golden eyes were filled with excitement, though his expression remained cautious.

The moment Shen Nuonuo heard the name Qian Daoliu, she was stunned.

This handsome guy was actually Qian Daoliu?

I actually crossed over to Spirit Hall. These villain cannon fodders were all stepping stones for that bastard.

But Qian Renxue's Grandpa really was handsome. He was over a hundred years old and still this good-looking.

There was a trace of surprise in Qian Daoliu's eyes. The girl actually knew his little granddaughter.

But then he considered that she might have been sent down to the mortal world by the God of Angels, and it no longer seemed strange.

Still, Spirit Hall was righteous. How could they be villains?

Qian Daoliu was just about to refute her when he noticed that the girl's lips had clearly not moved.

Could he be hearing things?

Seeing Qian Daoliu staring at her, Shen Nuonuo felt a little shy and gave a light cough.

"Your Excellency, please get up. My name is Shen Nuonuo."

"So it is Your Excellency. I have long admired you." Qian Daoliu's deep voice sounded somewhat excited.

Had he gone stupid? He was even calling me Your Excellency. Did he not see that I was only a few years old?

He kept kneeling there and grinning foolishly at me.

So creepy.

Did he have Angel Syndrome?

Shen Nuonuo watched Qian Daoliu continue smiling without pause, his movements stiff and repetitive. The more she thought about it, the more convinced she became.

So-called Angel Syndrome referred to a person whose face constantly bore a smile, while their movements were mechanical.

It also came with symptoms such as epilepsy, impaired language ability, and intellectual disability. Thus, it was also known as Happy Puppet Syndrome.

Stop smiling. This is freaking me out.

Stupid system, where the hell are you?

Shen Nuonuo cursed inwardly. This Primary System was truly useless!

PS: When the protagonist spoke with the system, no one else could hear it.

Hearing that, Qian Daoliu hurriedly climbed to his feet and simultaneously wiped the smile from his face.

Tsk, tsk. As expected of a villain. That smile was truly there one moment and gone the next. If he were on Little Blue Star, he might even win an Oscar Award.

Qian Daoliu: ...

So, should he smile or not?

What was Angel Syndrome?

And what was an Oscar Award?

Shen Nuonuo looked utterly troubled.

Oh God, how was she supposed to explain how she had ended up in this place?

Qian Daoliu would not treat her as a monster and execute her, would he?

"Honored guest, on behalf of all of Spirit Hall, I welcome your arrival."

Seeing her worry inwardly, Qian Daoliu hurriedly expressed his welcome.

Shen Nuonuo's mouth twitched. "My thanks."

"You are too courteous. You are an honored guest of Spirit Hall."

A smile unconsciously returned to Qian Daoliu's lips, his gaze bright.

The God of Angels must have manifested.

Shen Nuonuo felt her skin crawl under his gaze.

Why did it feel like I was being watched by a creepy stalker?

Hey, dead system, come out. I know you're there.

Ahem, Host, I'm here, the system replied.

Why did I cross over to Douluo Continent?

No idea. I'm only a Primary System, so I don't know much, the system said innocently.

Don't you know that I'm all alone here? It's dangerous!

Shen Nuonuo was genuinely irritated.

Then, Host, find a way not to be alone.

Heh heh, easy for you to say. This body's about six years old, right? I haven't awakened my martial soul, and I don't have a shred of Soul Power. Any random Spirit Hall lackey could probably kill me.

The system fell silent.

Hey, stop playing dead. What exactly am I here for?

What missions are there?

The system will randomly draw missions for you.

A lottery panel immediately appeared in Shen Nuonuo's mind.

The pointer spun, then stopped.

Beep, beep, beep. It spun like this five times.

All right. Five mandatory missions have been issued above. Because you performed well on previous missions, you only need to complete any three. Once completed, you may choose to return or remain here.

Cut the crap. What missions are they?

Shen Nuonuo did not believe there could be such a good deal in this world.

Task One: Fall in love with Tang San and replace Xiao Wu.

Shen Nuonuo: ...

She had something to say, but she was not sure whether she should say it.

Big Fool, you have already chosen death.

Task Two: Become one of the Shrek Seven Devils and obtain the Sea God's divine position.

Task Three: Help Qian Renxue become a god before the age of twenty-five.

Task Four: Help Spirit Hall unify the continent.

Task Five: Obtain a divine inheritance or create your own divine position before the age of twenty-five.

After hearing them all, Shen Nuonuo was speechless.

As for Task One, there was no way she would do it.

She had no desire to provoke Xiao Wu's Third Brother.

Task Two, becoming one of the Shrek Seven Devils, would not be difficult. The problem was obtaining the Sea God's divine position.

As for Task Three and Task Four—damn it, completing either of them meant offending Tang San.

He was the protagonist of Douluo Continent. This was seriously high difficulty.

But she had crossed over, so she was the protagonist now.

So, my dear master, aren't these missions so easy?

The system sounded very pleased with itself.

Get lost, you idiot.

Shen Nuonuo could not stop herself from rolling her eyes.

That startled Qian Daoliu, who had been carefully observing her all along.

Oh no, had he offended the honored guest whom the God of Angels had sent to Spirit Hall?

"Your Excellency Shen Nuonuo, what is wrong?"

"Did Qian do something wrong?" Qian Daoliu asked upon seeing her roll her eyes for no apparent reason.

Shen Nuonuo came back to herself and smiled apologetically, then said with perfect confidence, "Your Excellency Angel, you did nothing wrong. I was merely distracted."

"May I ask whether your arrival at Spirit Hall was an instruction from the God of Angels?"

Qian Daoliu looked at her with great anticipation.

Shen Nuonuo's expression stiffened. She did not understand how the conversation had suddenly turned to the God of Angels.

System, why did Qian Daoliu think that?

Hmph, hmph, hmph. Turn around and take a good look at where you are, the system said irritably.

PS: When the female lead spoke with the system, no one else could hear her. People she disliked, such as Tang San and the like, could not hear her inner thoughts either.
