Angel God

It took nearly ten days to get here, but the return journey to the port took only five.

As they boarded the Voyage Giant Ship once more, the vessel began to hum, setting off toward the distance.

Le Zhengyue's trip here was not exactly a secret; or rather, he had made no real effort to hide it.

Once any specific individual took an interest in him or kept tabs on his itinerary, it would be easy to spot that something was amiss.

However, at this early stage, noticing it was of little use, especially now that Shrek Academy had arrived on the Third Continent.

With Shrek Academy's support gone from this side, the conflicts between the major empires would only grow more intense.

Therefore, the most miserable place right now was the Second Continent.

The First Continent remained relatively stable, thanks to the presence of Martial Soul Hall.

As for the Third Continent, it went without saying that the Sun-Moon Federation held absolute dominance.

Although Shrek's strength had been supercharged, the two sides still maintained a mutual check and balance.

Thus, the First and Third Continents were relatively stable for the time being.

But on this Second Continent, not only were two major evil soul master organizations gathered, but the risks contained within were unimaginable.

Inside the Voyage Giant Ship, Le Zhengyue sat silently, studying a map.

In his room, Jiang Nannan stood nearby.

The young girl's eyes held a hint of embarrassment; the tattered clothes she had been wearing were gone, replaced by a set of ordinary garments.

In truth, Le Zhengyue had wanted her to wear a maid outfit, as that would have suited her current status.

The problem, however, was that while she possessed her previous memories and was no longer a child, her personality remained that of a girl only ten years old or so.

Watching Jiang Nannan silently pour tea for him, Le Zhengyue's expression remained calm.

In fact, shortly after coming aboard, Jiang Nannan had noticed Na'er, but she could not compare her status to Na'er's.

She was merely Le Zhengyue's maid, while Na'er was his younger sister.

Yet, because she hadn't quite figured out the girl before her, Jiang Nannan had remained silent on the matter.

The Voyage Giant Ship sailed slowly, yet its speed was quite high.

The Southern Legion returning from the Second Continent to the Third Continent needed to cover a vast distance, so they planned to follow the original route: first to Eastsea City, then return by air.

But just as the Soul Guidance Giant Ship roared forward, a terrifying aura of the highest order erupted.

This aura was horrifying, containing a power beyond description.

Feeling this terrifying pressure, Le Zhengyue stood up abruptly, his gaze fixed on the ocean ahead.

Although the three continents were now connected, there was still a stretch of ocean at the junction.

And their return from the border of the Star Luo Empire required them to cross that sea.

Thus, their current position was effectively at the intersection of the Second and Third Continents.

Le Zhengyue could not imagine who he might encounter here.

Yet, feeling that terrifying aura, he moved to head outside. Before he could, two elders had already appeared.

The extreme aura erupted from the ship, and the Voyage Giant Ship, which had been rocking precariously, instantly stabilized.

The two elders hovered in mid-air, looking ahead.

In front of them was a woman, though her left arm was now missing. Blood stained the corners of her mouth, and a monstrous, terrifying blood-red aura coalesced around her.

Behind her, a massive phantom appeared, though it was now filled with an evil, sinister luster.

Opposite her stood a middle-aged man—or perhaps an elder—also clad in white robes.

As the two Supreme Elders released their aura, the elder's gaze shifted toward them as well. The three auras intertwined.

They faintly formed a resonance, which left all three of them somewhat startled.

Below, the stunning woman who had been standing there now wore a look of extreme gloom.

Her gaze flickered from the elder in the air to the two elders behind him, leaving her momentarily speechless.

"What rotten luck. To think I'd run into you here is one thing, but to also run into your Angel Family? Since when did you lot in Martial Soul Hall have ties to this Third Continent?"

The woman's voice was soft, but her eyes were cold.

A terrifying, evil aura exploded from her body, revealing the presence of a Limit Douluo.

Yet, facing a true First-Class God, she was almost powerless to resist.

It was bad luck, really. Their trip out had been intended for the Third Continent, so their focus had naturally been placed there.

They hadn't expected to be caught by this old geezer so soon after leaving.

Looking at the elder before her, a trace of blood leaked from the woman's lips.

At the doorway, Le Zhengyue stood watching.

His gaze was also fixed on the woman, and she seemed to have noticed him.

As their gazes locked, the voice of the Goddess Illustrated Handbook System echoed in Le Zhengyue's mind:

[Congratulations on successfully meeting Ye Xishui. Congratulations on obtaining one draw opportunity for the Black Roulette.]

The electronic voice of the Goddess Illustrated Handbook System faded, but Le Zhengyue's pupils constricted slightly as he stared at the woman in the red robe before him.

The woman was breathtakingly beautiful, possessing the mature charm of a young matron, yet as Le Zhengyue looked at her now, his eyes were filled with extreme vigilance.

He had never expected to encounter Ye Xishui here.

Furthermore, the terrifying aura radiating from the old man over there was capable of easily suppressing the two Supreme Elders on his side.

Clearly, the other party had to be that Angel God, the very Qian Daoliu who had inexplicably become a First-Class Angel God.

However, as he watched the man, Le Zhengyue's eyes flickered slightly.

He had a lingering feeling that the man had not truly become a real Angel God, or rather, that his power was not quite right.

If he were truly a First-Class God, he should have been able to take down Ye Xishui in an instant, rather than being locked in a stalemate with her for so long.

Le Zhengyue's voice was very low; he was speaking less to others and more to himself.

As his gaze shifted to Qian Daoliu, Qian Daoliu did not look back at him.

The terrifying aura on his body condensed, and then, three divine rings slowly emerged behind him.

An aura belonging to a god released a force of extreme terror, descending with a boom.

The surrounding sea began to churn, and a phantom of a Holy Angel as vast as the heavens and earth appeared behind the old man.

Moreover, this Holy Angel actually possessed a full nine pairs of wings.

Feeling the aura of extreme terror, which was also a holy aura, the eyes of the two elders flickered.

Inside the Voyage Giant Ship, Le Zhengyue's pupils suddenly constricted.
