Background

Qian Daoliu is the Grand Consecrated Elder and Great High Priest of Martial Soul Hall, serving as the Angel Clan's guardian and the Worship Hall's foremost authority. A rank-99 Peerless Douluo, he has devoted his life to the Angel God and the preservation of the Angel lineage. 6 54

When the Angel God first declares that a successor has appeared, Qian Daoliu assumes the chosen heir is his granddaughter Qian Renxue, whose Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul and innate level-20 soul power are unprecedented. The oracle denies this, leaving him alarmed that another Angel bloodline may surpass Xue'er’s. He orders an investigation into powerful Martial Soul awakenings across the continent. 6 7

More than a decade later, a second oracle confirms that the Angel successor has been found. Remembering Bibi Dong’s unexplained disappearance after Qian Renxue’s birth, Qian Daoliu begins to suspect that she bore another child. His repeated questioning of Bibi Dong escalates into violence and eventually exposes the existence of Qian Renxue’s younger brother, whom Bibi Dong claims to have abandoned in the Far North. 54 86 159 172 186

The Angel God later reveals that the successor with the purest Angel bloodline has arrived in Martial Soul City. Qian Daoliu discovers that Lan is his surviving grandson and recognizes Lan’s Twelve-Winged Angel as the legendary Martial Soul sought by the Angel Clan. Overwhelmed by regret for Lan’s suffering, he pledges the Worship Hall and Angel Clan as Lan’s backing. 224 228 231 232 233

His loyalty to the Angel Clan can also make him severe and coercive. During his investigation of Bibi Dong, he threatens Yu Xiaogang to force her cooperation, showing little sympathy for her suffering despite recognizing the gravity of past events. 160 186
