The Angel Bound to the Cross
Bang!!!
Qian Daoliu was in pain.
Even though her eyes have regained their clarity, why are they still...?
"Xiao Xue," Qian Daoliu's shoulders trembled, "Don't you recognize your grandfather?"
Qian Renxue withdrew her fist and clenched it tightly.
"I recognize it."
"You are the one I want to kill."
The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul unfolded from behind her.
His Soul Power is actually that of Titled Douluo!
"She absorbed some of the mixed power," Sky Dream Ice Silkworm sighed, "And even before the seal, there was power within her that had become one with it."
As she spoke, Qian Renxue had already raised the Angel Holy Sword.
His strength Titled Douluo poses no threat to anyone present.
But how could Qian Daoliu back against his granddaughter?
It was merely a passive defense, lest I hurt her!
"Xiao Xue, wake up!" Qian Daoliu called out, "Look carefully at who I am!"
But Qian Renxue's offensive did not slow down at all; on the contrary, it became even more fierce.
Her eyes were filled with murderous intent!
Just then, the sound of hurried footsteps came from not far away.
An army clad in standard Star Luo Empire armor charged forward.
The leader was a general at the Soul Saint level.
Upon seeing the wings on Qian Renxue's back, his eyes instantly turned dangerous.
"So, you're the one stirring up trouble in the empire!"
"Brothers, let's go!"
Qian Renxue casually swung her sword.
The general immediately felt a deadly threat!
Fortunately, the ice wall rose, saving his life.
The Soul Saint general, still shaken, turned to look.
Ye Hua lowered his hand and nodded slightly to him.
The general breathed a sigh of relief, then flew into a rage!
"Go! Take this crazy woman under control!"
"Let's see who dares!" Qian Daoliu used his imposing aura to suppress Qian Renxue.
The general was also affected, and he was so frightened that he staggered back, his face turning deathly pale.
"Don't be nervous," Ye Hua said at the right moment. "Do you recognize me?"
The general looked up and his gaze fell on Ye Hua's face.
He paused for a moment, then suddenly widened his eyes.
"You are... Night Alliance Leader!"
"I saw you from afar when I was defending the Abyss from the Far North Forest!"
"It's good that you recognize him," Ye Hua nodded. "Leave this to me."
"Take your men to the surrounding towns to stabilize morale and block information."
"I will personally explain to Dai Weisi afterwards."
The general nodded quickly, "Yes, sir!"
Despite being suppressed by Qian Daoliu, Qian Renxue still managed to let out a roar.
"That shouldn't be the case," Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said, puzzled. "Even if it absorbed some power, it shouldn't cause such a drastic change in its personality."
"You humans can't be that fragile, can you?"
"I'm afraid it's not just a matter of absorbing mixed forces." Gu Yuena glanced at Qian Renxue's face.
"The power of Fallen Angel can corrupt the mind and alter one's character."
"How so?" Qian Daoliu hurriedly asked for guidance.
"The power of Fallen Angel amplifies the dark side of the heart," Gu Yuena recalled. "It seems you need to reflect on this."
"Think about your granddaughter, why did you kill your grandfather?"
Qian Daoliu froze.
His lips moved, and guilt flashed in his eyes.
"This..." Qian Daoliu sighed, "She has no father since she was a child, and her mother doesn't love her either."
"At the time, in order to maintain stability, I had no choice but to let Bibi Dong take over."
"As for me, I command the Worship Hall and rarely leave my home, so much so that I didn't intervene when Qian Renxue was bullied."
"Well," Ye Hua shrugged, "The case is solved."
Why don't you try apologizing?
Qian Daoliu nodded, about to speak.
Buzz--!!!
"Aaaaaah!"
Qian Renxue broke free from Qian Daoliu's suppression.
Qian Daoliu was taken aback, thinking that his strength had regressed.
But the next second, Qian Renxue clutched her head, pulled her hair, and growled.
Gold Trial and dark purple shimmered alternately, and the angel's six wings spread dark purple anew.
Even her face changed from pure and holy to seductive, with red eyeshadow applied to the corners of her eyes.
Qian Daoliu's mind trembled!
He suddenly reached out, and golden light swept across Qian Renxue's body, causing her old face to instantly lose all color.
"Her status as the heir to the Angel God... is gone..."
"How is this possible! The Angel God has revoked her right to inherit the throne!"
The wind whistled through the treetops of the Star Dou Forest.
"Angel God... you abandon your followers without hesitation?"
"From birth, Qian Renxue was offered to you and groomed as your successor!"
"This more than twenty years of devout faith has resulted in..."
Ye Hua patted him on the shoulder, "It's no use saying all this now."
"Furthermore, ever since you suspected that the Abyss invasion was related to the Divine Realm, will you still place all your hopes on the gods?"
Qian Daoliu clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white.
He really wanted to curse!
I want to hurl insults at that unattainable Divine Realm!
I wanted to question the Angel God he had worshipped his whole life: why was he so heartless!
But what happens after the insults are finished?
Qian Renxue still had to die.
"Let me do it," Ye Hua said, placing his hand on Qian Renxue's forehead.
Hope rekindled in Qian Daoliu's eyes.
"What's currently controlling Qian Renxue is probably malice."
"I entered her Sea of Consciousness, found the part of her Benevolent Thought that was imprisoned, and pulled her back."
Qian Daoliu gasped, "You can do that?"
"The Sea of Consciousness is the soul, the most core realm!"
"If you're not careful, you'll both suffer!"
"You..."
Qian Daoliu unconsciously began using a respectful form of address.
Emotionally, he did hope that Ye Hua would save Qian Renxue.
But rationally speaking, if Ye Hua fails, not only will Qian Renxue die, but he will also lose an ally in the fight against the Divine Realm!
"Don't worry," Ye Hua turned to Gu Yuena, "You two will Guardian me."
"While I am entering her Sea of Consciousness, you must stabilize her body."
"Brother Sky Dream, please help me build a bridge."
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm rubbed its hands together. "Alright!"
Ye Hua said no more and sat down cross-legged beside Gu Yuena.
Guided by the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, the soul broke through the barrier and entered the Sea of Consciousness.
It was a broken, grayish-white world.
The sky was shattered into countless fragments, the earth beneath our feet was cracked, and dark purple smog floated in the air.
Before them, amidst thunder and lightning, a figure stood in the center of the open space.
Qian Renxue was tightly bound to a gray cross.
Her long, Gold Trial hair fell over her shoulders, and her face was pale and broken.
His clothes were tattered, his eyes were glazed, and there was blood at the corner of his mouth.
It's filled with a sense of war damage and devastation!
