"And besides... behind the angel martial soul lies the Angel God's godhood, which the Angel Lineage has always guarded," Dai Tianfeng said. "Only those who obtain the angel martial soul are qualified to inherit that godhood."
Dai Weisi froze. "Father, isn't the Angel God just a rumor fabricated by Spirit Hall?"
Dai Tianfeng rolled his eyes at Dai Weisi. "That was all meant to fool those mud-legged peasants."
"Back when soul beasts roamed unchecked, the Angel God carved out a place for humanity. She even quelled the Evil Soul Master Rebellion and reshaped the continent's order. That was when the Angel Church stood at the height of its power. In those days, they were humanity's uncrowned rulers."
"Later, the Angel Church went through repeated upheavals and schisms, falling into decline. Only then did our ancestors and the ancestors of the Heaven Dou Empire seize the opportunity to rise and establish their empires, creating a three-way balance of power with Spirit Hall."
"Spirit Hall no longer possesses the might the Angel Church once had. Naturally, we cannot publicize their glorious past. We must question the Angel God and question that history. If we didn't, tell me, would the Star Luo Empire belong to Spirit Hall or to our House Dai?"
"So the rumors are true..." Dai Weisi was stunned.
"So, do you still think the Hell White Tiger matters when weighed against a godhood?"
Dai Weisi said, "Father, I understand."
Dai Tianfeng continued, "Besides, we aren't abandoning the Hell White Tiger. The angel martial soul passes down through a single line, while our collateral branches can continue inheriting the Hell White Tiger martial soul. We will divide into two lineages: the White Tiger Dai Lineage and the Angel Dai Lineage, with the White Tiger Dai Lineage guarding the Angel Dai Lineage."
