Qian Renxue was meticulous and had been constantly searching for a way to break the predicament before her. Countless thoughts raced through her mind as she simulated ways to subdue the enemy.
But unfortunately, opportunities on the battlefield vanished in an instant, and the time left to her was far too short.
"Gentlemen, even if she possesses the legendary innate domain, at the end of the day she's only a Soul King, and her Soul Power is limited!"
"We'll strike with our Soul Power and break this cage." One Soul Emperor had a shrewd eye and quickly spotted a weakness in the domain.
He called on the other two to join him in breaking the domain.
"Good. We'll do as Brother Lie says. Let's attack together, capture this woman, and present her to Lord Luo Lie. That'll be an enormous achievement for us!"
The three wasted no more words and joined forces.
Their vast, mighty Soul Power burst forth. These were three veteran Soul Emperors with deep reserves, and their accumulated Soul Power far surpassed Qian Renxue's.
In less than three minutes, the holy, radiant Angel Domain let out a crack and began to teeter on the verge of collapse.
"No good. The Soul Power of three Soul Emperors far exceeds mine. The Angel Domain can't hold on much longer." Qian Renxue clenched her pearly teeth, her exquisite, snow-white face filled with unwillingness.
If she had absorbed the Golden Flame Holy Lion's Soul Ring and reached the Soul Emperor level, how could she have been forced into such a predicament?
"If I can't hold the line, then I'll kill! I'll take one of them down first and clear the way for the battle to come!"
Qian Renxue decisively abandoned her defensive stance, a resolute, icy glint flashing in her eyes.
"Fourth Soul Skill—Angel Judgment!"
Sun True Fire coiled around her clear, icy skin.
Qian Renxue raised the Angel Sword high and summoned every sacred flame within the domain, preparing to slay one of the Soul Emperors first.
Her move was swift and decisive. She immediately locked onto the weakest of them, who also had the most despicable nature.
True fire surged forth, carrying the Angel's fury as it descended with the power to crush everything. It would pass judgment on all, and its terrifying aura even left the three Soul Emperors within the domain shaken.
"I'm locked down! I can't move at all. You two, hurry and save me! Save me..." the Soul Emperor in green robes cried out, utterly terrified.
All the domain's remaining power bore down on him like a mountain. He was now nothing more than meat on a chopping board, entirely at her mercy.
The helplessness filled him with terror. He screamed at the other two Soul Emperors, begging them for help.
"Don't panic, Brother Delong. We're coming to save you." Fierce Soul Emperor immediately acted. A treasure tower bore down, blocking Delong's path and shielding him to save his life.
Seeing this, the other Soul Emperor also used Martial Soul Possession. His wolf claws slashed through the air, swift as the wind and lightning. He darted through the domain like a terrifying primeval beast.
All three acted together. If they were meant to capture a Soul King but ended up losing a Soul Emperor, the whole thing would be a joke.
Lord Luo Lie might even reconsider their worth.
"Damn it, I can't stop it!" The instant it clashed with the greatsword, Fierce Soul Emperor's expression changed dramatically. The radiant blade was like divine punishment, unstoppable as it smashed through all their defenses.
A sacred force even wound its way upward, burning along their Soul Power and dragging them into the greatsword's attack range to face judgment.
An attack of this magnitude had nearly touched the Soul Saint level. There was no way the two of them could withstand it.
Fierce Soul Emperor and the other Soul Emperor exchanged a glance. No words were needed; the same ruthless glint flashed in both their eyes.
"Brother Delong, for Lord Luo Lie, for the future of the continent, prove yourself!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two withdrew their Soul Power and immediately darted backward.
They had actually abandoned the Soul Emperor called Delong, leaving him in front to face Angel Judgment alone and using him as a shield.
"You two... bastards! Lord Luo Lie won't let you get away with this!" Soul Emperor Delong cried out in terror. He resisted the judgment with all his might, searching for a sliver of hope.
But the domain's might surpassed all imagination. Even a Soul Saint would be trapped for a time if one came here. How could a mere Soul Emperor escape? All he could do was wait for death.
Boom!
The towering sword cleaved through everything, descending from the void with a forceful, blistering heat. In an instant, it broke through every defense, and sacred flames swallowed Soul Emperor Delong's figure.
"No..."
A scream rang out from the sea of flames. It was Soul Emperor Delong's final cry, full of agony, unwillingness, and hatred, before it withered away amid the blazing fire.
As Soul Emperor Delong fell, Qian Renxue could no longer bear the strain.
Her Soul Power was nearly exhausted, and she could no longer maintain the Angel Domain. With a crash, it collapsed in every direction.
"Now! Brother Liu, let's attack together. We'll cripple this woman first, then hand her over to Lord Luo Lie!"
Fierce Soul Emperor's gaze was sinister, like a bloodthirsty wolf. Every move he made was a lethal one, aiming to cripple Qian Renxue for good.
The other Soul Emperor hesitated, but when he thought of Soul Emperor Delong's death, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
His attacks were vicious and decisive, each aimed at Qian Renxue's vital points.
"Miss Qian Renxue, Spirit Hall is a sacred place in the hearts of all the continent's Soul Masters and has always taken the continent as its responsibility. We all respect it greatly. But why won't you make concessions for the continent and submit to Lord Luo Lie?"
"Lord Luo Lie cares deeply for the continent and its people. Joining him is your good fortune, and a blessing for the entire continent!"
As Fierce Soul Emperor spoke, he tried to throw Qian Renxue off balance while attacking relentlessly. His moves were vicious, driven by a madness that aimed to leave her dead.
Boom!
The scarlet tower soared into the sky and struck across heaven and earth, knocking Qian Renxue back to the ground once more. She was wounded, and vivid red blood bloomed across her crystalline skin, so beautiful it was heartbreaking.
"For your own selfish desires, you've actually let a vicious tiger into the continent! When the time comes, the entire continent will suffer calamity. Don't you feel even a shred of guilt?"
Blood trickled from the corner of Qian Renxue's mouth, staining her clothes red. Her graceful figure was as heartrending as a rose.
She had fought with all her might and used thunderous methods, even revealing her trump card—the Angel Domain—to slay a veteran Soul Emperor. It should have been an astonishing feat.
Yet at that very moment, she had struck a nerve with her enemies. They grew ever more wary, and their methods ever more frenzied and violent. The situation was turning dire.
With no other choice, she could only try to shake their resolve with words, hoping for a turn of fortune and a flicker of emotion from her enemies. After all, this was something she excelled at.
But to her disappointment, the two Soul Emperors seemed to have lost their senses. No matter what she said, they remained enamored with the Starry Sky People, even fanatical in their devotion.
"Pfft!"
Ghost Wolf Soul Emperor darted around the battlefield, launching surprise attacks at any moment. Qian Renxue was already struggling to keep up, and while her mind was worn down with exhaustion, she was struck again by the Blood Tower.
She spat out a mouthful of blood, instantly staining her red lips. Qian Renxue's eyes dimmed. Her Soul Power was finally spent, and after taking another heavy blow, she could no longer hold on.
"Brother Liu, she was already out of Soul Power earlier, and now she's fought us for so long. She can't keep going. Let's attack together and capture her!"
