Hu Liena Regrets and Cries Bitterly! Qian Renxue: You Can't Win Against Me

Not to mention that Hu Liena had no authority to command Lin Ye, even she, the Young Mistress of Martial Soul Hall, had no right to order Lin Ye, who was also an heir to the Angel God.

Qian Renxue shook her head with a smile: "Heh, haven't you heard? He! Lin Ye, is the personal disciple of my grandfather, Qian Daoliu!"

"Do you think a disciple of the Pope can command a disciple of the Great Elder?"

"What did you say!"

"And... you! You are Young Mistress Qian Renxue?"

This news struck Hu Liena's heart like a bolt of lightning. She collapsed to the ground, stunned, and filled with even deeper regret: "Lin Ye... is... the personal disciple of the Great Elder!?"

"Alright, let's go, Lin Ye. Grandfather is calling for you."

"Mm." Lin Ye responded, then said to Hu Liena: "Actually, the one who doesn't even have the qualifications to stand by my side, the one who isn't worthy, is not me, but you, Hu Liena."

"This is the end for us."

Leaving that final sentence behind, he departed alongside Qian Renxue.

Watching Lin Ye's retreating figure, Hu Liena felt immense despair, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably: "How could it end like this..."

Beautiful memories of Lin Ye flashed through her mind one by one.

As a transmigrator, Lin Ye possessed a maturity and composure beyond his years.

From a young age, he displayed the traits of a prodigy; he learned to walk at six months and began speaking at one year old, capable of basic communication.

Before the age of two, he was already reading and writing, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

By four, he had mastered a vast amount of Martial Soul theory and began diligently practicing swordsmanship, revealing his talent for the sword.

At five, he had already defeated many six or seven-year-olds who had awakened their Martial Souls, even without using his own.

The former Hu Liena had actually always admired Lin Ye deeply!

Back then, she had always loved sticking by Lin Ye's side.

But as she awakened her Martial Soul and displayed powerful talent, she began to grow proud and conceited.

And after learning that Lin Ye was likely far inferior to her, she felt that Lin Ye was no longer worthy of her.

Gradual coldness and estrangement followed.

Yet, she had not forgotten the feelings, the admiration, and the time spent growing up together that she had sealed away in the depths of her heart!

In this moment, Hu Liena was filled with immense regret, remorse to the extreme!

She could no longer hold it together; she completely dropped her pride, admitting her faults, begging him to stay, and crying out in heartbreak: "Wuwuwu!! I'm sorry! I was wrong, Lin Ye! I regret it!!!"

"Please! Don't go! Don't leave me! Don't leave Nana, Lin Ye!!"

But Lin Ye walked away without looking back, disappearing from their sight.

"Sigh." Xie Yue looked helpless.

He had just missed out on such an incredible brother-in-law, and he sighed: "Nana, let's go."

As Lin Ye and Qian Renxue headed toward the Worship Hall, the atmosphere between them was subtle.

Lin Ye could feel it.

Although he and Qian Renxue were walking side by side, an invisible sense of hostility had formed between them!

A sense of opposition!

"I saw the battle just now. To be honest, you surprised me." Qian Renxue glanced at Lin Ye.

Her subsequent words were clearly hostile: "But thinking about it, it's normal for someone chosen by the Angel God to have this level of strength."

"You are qualified to be my rival, Qian Renxue's rival."

Lin Ye smiled: "Qian Renxue, you don't actually have to think like that. We could engage in healthy competition, help each other, and grow together to complete the trials. What do you think?"

He wasn't worried about Qian Daoliu and the elders killing him for the time being.

Instead, he was somewhat worried that Qian Renxue might take action against him to eliminate a competitor.

After all, the Angel God only instructed the elders to treat them equally and allow for fair competition, but it didn't say that competitors couldn't kill each other.

In Lin Ye's memory, Qian Renxue was a character who prioritized interests, was patient, decisive, and relatively ruthless.

His existence already threatened Qian Renxue's interests in becoming the Angel God.

However, Qian Renxue had only been lurking in the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace for two years; she shouldn't have fully transformed into the character from the original work yet, right?

"Healthy competition? Helping each other? Heh." Qian Renxue laughed.

If she were still the naive, simple, and kind nine-year-old Qian Renxue from before she infiltrated the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

She would have certainly believed in and accepted so-called healthy competition, but in the two years at the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, she had understood much and changed a great deal.

She had developed sophistication and schemes.

She would no longer easily trust anyone.

She sneered: "Human nature cannot withstand temptation. In the face of absolute temptation, the vast majority of people will reveal their ugly faces."

"Do you think that in the face of such a massive temptation as becoming a god, I would believe in your so-called healthy competition and mutual assistance?"

She added, "Two years!"

Lin Ye: ????

"What do you mean?"

"In consideration of the fact that it was because of you that I was able to leave that detestable Heaven Dou Imperial Palace to return and accept the Angel Nine Trials, I will give you two years. Within these two years, I will not take action to suppress you," Qian Renxue stated directly.

It really is difficult to get along peacefully with Qian Renxue! Lin Ye sighed inwardly. He said with a straight face, "Add half a year! Two and a half years!"

"..." Qian Renxue was speechless and couldn't help but roll her eyes. "You might as well have just added a full year; what's the point of adding half a year!"

"Then let's make it a full year!!"

"No! Since you said two and a half years, then it's two and a half years!"

Lin Ye looked annoyed. I was careless! If I had known, I wouldn't have trolled my brother back then! Damn it, I said two and a half years out of habit!

Qian Renxue was incredibly solemn and earnest. "Lin Ye! You are a rare genius. A genius like you will surely become a great powerhouse for my Martial Soul Hall in the future, so I find it necessary to warn you."

"I am the Young Mistress of Martial Soul Hall, a member of the Six-Winged Angel clan, and furthermore, a descendant of the Angel God!"

"Look at my advantages; who in the entire Martial Soul Hall would support you? You cannot compete with me for the Angel God Position."

"Two and a half years from now, if you are sensible, you should give up. Otherwise, don't blame me for taking action to suppress you then."

"Is that so?" Lin Ye's gaze shifted, becoming sharp. He responded forcefully, "Thank you for the reminder, but no matter who you are, I will not give up on the Angel God Position easily."

How could he possibly give up on the chance to become a god so easily?

If he gave up on the Angel God, it would likely be difficult for Lin Ye to attain godhood.

On the Douluo Continent, besides the Angel God Position, there were only two other sites of divine inheritance.

One was the City of Slaughter, the Asura God Position.

The other was Sea God Island, the Sea God Position.

However, the Asura God was the god who governed slaughter; strictly speaking, he belonged to the dark deities, and he likely wouldn't be compatible with someone like Lin Ye, who possessed bright and holy power.

The Asura God might not even want him.

As for the Sea God, he had historical ties to the Angel God, so he likely wouldn't want an heir like Lin Ye, who possessed a martial soul identical to the Angelic divine artifact.

If neither of these two gods would choose him, then Lin Ye would only have one path left.

That was to break through to Title Douluo and wait for the gods of the God Realm to proactively offer him a god position!
