The Nine Angelic Trials?

Upon seeing the Three-Eyed Golden Lion about to drop its small pearls, Xiao Rou slowly reached out her hand to wipe them away.

"Alright, now that you're all grown up, you should know your mission."

Thinking of this, Xiao Rou slowly stood up, her expression becoming solemn.

"I know this may be too late for you now, but as your subject, I will always respect you."

After speaking, Xiao Rou slowly bowed to the Auspicious Beast beast.

"Greetings, Auspicious Beast!"

Two simple sentences instantly created a distance between the two.

It was awful. Three-Eyed Golden Lion felt extremely uncomfortable, as if... as if a breath was stuck in his throat, neither going up nor down, causing him immense discomfort.

"Rou... Rou's Mom!"

Hearing the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's call, Xiao Rou slowly raised her head.

"Now, I can tell you why I'm here."

"Years ago, Xiao Wu and I were being hunted down by three Titled Douluo, so we had no choice but to entrust you to Great Ming Er Ming for protection."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's pupils contracted.

"Was it... was it that man who kidnapped you too?"

Upon hearing the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's words, Xiao Rou slowly shook her head.

"No, in a moment of crisis, when I was about to be hunted down, he... saved me."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion slowly learned the whole story from Xiao Rou's words.

In an instant, she realized that the group that arrested her before and the group that arrested her now were not the same.

"And what about her?"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion glared angrily at Ah Yin.

Rou's mother's appearance here was completely accidental, but what about this Soul Beast Transformation?

Xiao Rou was about to explain when she saw this, but before she could, Ah Yin stepped forward and said something.

"I... it was you, sir, who helped me to be reborn. I want to assist you, sir, therefore, I have followed you."

In the heart of the continent, in Spirit City, Spirit Hall!

As soon as the Tiandou army set off, Qian Renxue returned to the Spirit Hall first, but the person in the luxurious carriage was just a stand-in.

While the army was on its way to support Spirit City, Qian Renxue herself had already returned to the Spirit Hall's Worship Hall.

Bibi Dong received the news the moment Qian Renxue returned.

At this moment, Bibi Dong's face was covered in dust, her pretty face was haggard, and her complexion was slightly pale.

Because of the warning from the Star Dou Forest, Bibi Dong only has seven days. Within these seven days, she must find a way to quell this turmoil.

Looking for Auspicious Beast?

Lin Bao has disappeared.

She has already sent people to search the entire continent. In addition, she has prepared for the worst: to fight the Soul Beast of the Star Dou Forest again.

However, with the Spirit Hall's current strength, it is certain that it cannot withstand another attack from the Soul Beast. With no other option, Bibi Dong could only think of seeking support.

Therefore, in the past two days, she has been attending meetings at the United Nations and seeking assistance from various countries without stopping for a moment.

So he looked a bit travel-worn, and his whole appearance was somewhat haggard.

"What...! She's back!"

The moment Bibi Dong heard that Qian Renxue had returned, her eyes widened in surprise.

"What's going on? Why is she coming back at such a crucial moment?"

She always referred to her as "her," and even though this daughter was a piece of her own flesh and blood, Bibi Dong never called her Xue'er affectionately like ordinary parents would.

Because in her eyes, Qian Renxue's existence was a disgrace to her.

It was something she would never forget, the greatest humiliation of her life!!!

A dying person speaks kind words, even though later, when Bibi Dong was redeemed, he acknowledged and approved of Qian Renxue.

However, as of now, Bibi Dong definitely doesn't have any good feelings towards Qian Renxue.

Perhaps, even she herself is avoiding this question.

"Your Holiness... I heard... I heard that the Great Worship Pope in the Worship Hall is... almost unable to hold on!"

Whoosh!!!

Upon hearing this news, Bibi Dong immediately stood up.

"What!!!"

This news was definitely not good news for Bibi Dong.

The Spirit Hall was already no match for the Star Dou Forest. If, now, the Spirit Hall were to lose a top-tier fighter like Qian Daoliu, it would face even greater difficulties.

"Also, Your His Holiness the Pope, this time... the young master led 200,000 elite troops from the Heaven Dou Empire back to provide support."

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong fell silent.

"You could say that; she hasn't forgotten her family."

Leaving behind a single sentence, Bibi Dong turned and left.

Worship Hall.

Walking through the all-too-familiar main hall, Qian Renxue suddenly felt a sense of fear.

Is it a feeling of trepidation upon approaching home?

No... no... no, it's that she didn't see that familiar figure from the past.

This made her start to panic.

"Young Master, Elder Brother is inside the temple."

Golden Crocodile Douluo appeared in the main hall, his eyes slightly reddening as he looked at the grown-up Qian Renxue.

Upon hearing Golden Crocodile Douluo's words, Qian Renxue did not hesitate and quickly took her first steps.

The pace quickened, faster and faster, until a faint golden light appeared.

Inside the Angel Temple.

Tap tap tap tap~!!!!

The crisp sound of footsteps echoed, and Qian Renxue, who had quickly entered the main hall, saw that familiar figure.

"Grandpa... Grandpa!!!"

Unable to hold back her tears any longer, Qian Renxue burst into tears and was about to run wildly toward Qian Daoliu.

Qian Daoliu suddenly opened his eyes in the main seat in front of the Angel God Statue.

In an instant, golden light shone forth.

"Stop!"

Upon hearing this rebuke, Qian Renxue froze on the spot.

"Grandfather!"

Only then did Qian Renxue notice that Qian Daoliu's face was deathly pale, his once golden hair had turned completely white, and his previously healthy and youthful body was now covered in wrinkles, as if all his vitality had been robbed away.

Kneel down.

Qian Daoliu's calm voice echoed throughout the hall.

Qian Renxue stood there, stunned.

"What, are you not even listening to your grandfather anymore?"

Thump!

Without the slightest hesitation, Qian Renxue was already in tears the moment she knelt down.

"Listen... I'm listening, Grandpa, please don't leave Xue'er Xue'er! You're the only family I have left!!!"

Qian Daoliu frowned slightly, then slowly relaxed his brows after a while.

Close your eyes and feel carefully.

The instant Qian Renxue closed her eyes, a golden light burst forth from Qian Daoliu's body, and the Angel God Statue behind him lit up instantly.

A golden beam of light shot straight into the sky, and in an instant, the nine Angel images inside the hall were slowly illuminated.

"Heavens... Nine Angelic Trials!!!"

In an instant, the golden light grew stronger and stronger, and within Spirit City, the golden light emanating from the Spirit Hall could be seen.

Countless civilians of Spirit City knelt down in prayer.

Even the Soul Master of the Spirit Hall, and the few elders in the Worship Hall, all knelt on one knee.

"The Nine Trials that countless generations of the Douluo Hall Masters have awaited have finally arrived!"

Qian Daoliu's eyes lit up as he looked at the nine Angel patterns. Just as a look of relief and no regrets appeared on his face, golden light suddenly began to flash.

The nine patterns shattered with a crash!
