This Killing God Domain must have been the mark of Su Qi as Shura God's Inheritor.
Qian Renxue's Angel Domain was bolstered by over fifty levels of soul power, yet before a Killing God Domain supported by merely thirty levels of soul power, it proved so utterly fragile?
Only then did Qian Daoliu truly realize just how vast the gap was between their Angel God and the Shura God.
Fortunately, a shattered domain could be restored. Though it required a period of cooldown, the Angel God Inheritance itself had not been damaged.
"No! My domain!" Qian Renxue cried out in alarm.
She did not know that Su Qi's Asura God Inheritance was far more advanced than the Angel God Inheritance.
Thus, from beginning to end, her cold and breathtakingly beautiful face had borne a composed superiority and faint arrogance toward Su Qi.
Now, that composure and arrogance had shattered along with the Angel Domain.
Only at this moment did Qian Renxue belatedly realize it.
Su Qi's domain had overcome a stronger opponent with weaker strength. Clearly, the Deity backing him possessed a deeper foundation than hers.
The Deity protecting him was actually far more powerful than the Angel God?
"How could this be possible?"
Qian Renxue stared at Su Qi, surrounded by killing intent. Her eyes trembled involuntarily, and her faith nearly crumbled.
The great Angel God had always been the noblest and most powerful Deity in her heart.
How could she possibly feel good about accepting the existence of someone nobler and more powerful than the Angel God?
Seeing how deeply shaken Qian Renxue was, Su Qi reminded her, "Didn't your teacher teach you that there are always people above people and heavens beyond heavens? Only by believing that stronger things exist in this world can you become stronger."
As he spoke, Su Qi stood firmly on the ground and thrust the Asura Demon Sword in his right hand upward. The three Asura Demon Swords hovering behind him shot forth at the same time, hurtling straight toward Qian Renxue in the air!
Qian Renxue snapped out of her shock and immediately mobilized all her soul power, driving the Holy Sword forward with all her might.
Clang, hum—
The tip of the first Asura Demon Sword collided fiercely with the tip of the Holy Sword.
Empowered by Qian Renxue's soul power of over fifty levels, the Holy Sword instantly shattered the Asura Demon Sword into fading light.
Before she could catch her breath, the second Asura Demon Sword followed close behind and clashed head-on with the Holy Sword again, only to be shattered as well.
After two consecutive high-intensity collisions, Qian Renxue's soul power drained sharply. Her arm went numb, and the web between her thumb and forefinger trembled.
The instant the third Asura Demon Sword slammed into the Holy Sword, the platinum Holy Sword shattered with a bang, turning into golden light that scattered into the wind.
Qian Renxue suffered backlash. Her whole body convulsed as the soul power within her was nearly drained away. Her weakened body was flung backward, plummeting from the sky!
Qian Daoliu, who had been watching from the side, wanted to catch Qian Renxue, but he discovered that Su Qi was summoning the killing intent of the Killing God Domain to form a buffer, protecting her as she slowly drifted down to the ground.
When he saw Su Qi retract the Asura Demon Swords and his soul rings before walking toward Qian Renxue, Qian Daoliu not only did not stop him, but smiled knowingly and quietly watched from the side.
Qian Renxue's face was deathly pale. She lay on the ground, gasping for breath, looking utterly miserable.
Su Qi walked up to her, extended his right hand, and offered to pull her up.
Though unwilling, Qian Renxue clearly remembered her teacher's teachings.
"No matter the reason, a loss is a loss. What does that mean, little one? You need more practice!"
Remembering what her teacher had told her when she was young, Qian Renxue calmly accepted the fact that she had lost. She raised her hand, grasped Su Qi's outstretched hand, and used his support to stand.
"A loss is a loss. I admit it."
Qian Renxue changed the subject and said seriously, "But that doesn't mean my Angel Domain is inferior to yours."
"Only with a Martial Soul Avatar can the Angel Domain unleash its true power."
"If I had a Martial Soul Avatar, the Angel Domain definitely wouldn't have been shattered by you!"
"That is true." Following Qian Renxue's words, Su Qi said, "Then let's not count this spar as a win or loss. When we both reach level seventy and gain Martial Soul Avatars, shall we fight again?"
Hearing this, Qian Renxue felt inexplicably better. The resentment and frustration in her heart vanished at once, and she smiled as she nodded. "Fine. It's a deal. When the time comes, you'll definitely be the one getting crushed!"
Su Qi smiled. "I hope it turns out as you wish."
Seeing his smile, his tone of voice, and his habitual movements, Qian Renxue could not help recalling the familiar sword style from their sparring match. Curious, she asked, "Su Qi, who taught you your swordsmanship?"
"My swordsmanship was passed to me in dreams by the Deity protecting me. Why?" Su Qi asked.
Qian Renxue stared into Su Qi's eyes and demanded, "Then why do I feel that every move you make resembles someone I once knew?"
Su Qi shook his head. "I wouldn't know about that. I come from a commoner background. Before joining Spirit Hall, I stayed in the village all the time. It's not like that person you knew could have come to the village to teach me swordsmanship, right?"
"That is true." After answering, Qian Renxue fell into deep thought.
Judging by their ages, Su Qi had only been born after her teacher died.
So there was no possibility of her teacher passing through that village and teaching Su Qi swordsmanship.
Could it be that her teacher's swordsmanship had also been inherited from the Deity protecting Su Qi?
Otherwise, how could they be so similar?
Setting these doubts aside for the moment, Qian Renxue looked toward the towering Douluo Hall behind her.
Since she had returned this time, she could take the chance to visit the spirit tombs of her teacher and father in Douluo Hall.
"Xiaoxue, do you understand a little more about Su Qi's foundation now?"
Qian Daoliu's gentle voice sounded out. With a flash, he arrived before Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue glared at Qian Daoliu resentfully. "Grandfather, you already knew that Su Qi's Deity inheritance was more powerful than our Angel God Inheritance, didn't you? Why didn't you tell me beforehand? You made me embarrass myself."
Qian Daoliu laughed heartily, clasping his hands behind his back as he explained, "Xiaoxue, it wasn't that Grandfather wanted to embarrass you. It's just that if I told you myself, you certainly wouldn't have believed me. So I could only let you experience it for yourself."
"Su Qi has received a Deity's blessing, which has elevated his mind. That is why he is even more mature than you in temperament."
"What he said earlier was good: there are always people above people and heavens beyond heavens."
"Our Angel God is certainly powerful, but above the God Realm, we must admit that there are stronger beings."
"Back then, Grandfather believed himself invincible. Until I met two opponents evenly matched with me, and to this day, I have been unable to settle matters with them. That has become a lifelong regret of mine..."
"In short, Xiaoxue, do not think too highly of yourself in the future. You must learn humility, understand?"
Before Qian Renxue could respond, Su Qi asked in a child's tone, "Great Worshiper, what is humility?"
"Su Qi, stop pretending!" Qian Renxue said bitterly. "Though you're only six, whether in appearance or mentality, you're completely an adult. We won't fall for your act of playing cute because you're young anymore!"
"Fine." Su Qi sighed. "I don't want to keep pretending to be a child either."
As the three chatted, far away in the Papal Palace, within the Pope's Palace.
Bibi Dong led Hu Liena into the palace chambers and casually asked, "Nana, how have you been getting along with Su Qi these past few days?"
Hu Liena smiled faintly. "Pretty well. Su Qi doesn't resemble a child at all. Being with him feels more like getting along with someone my own age. Teacher, is he really only six?"
"Perhaps he received a Deity's blessing and needs to complete a Divine Trial, so his mind differs from ordinary people."
At that, Bibi Dong turned to Hu Liena. A scheme lay hidden in her eyes as she probed, "Nana, if I arranged a marriage contract between you and Su Qi, would you blame your teacher?"
Hearing this, Hu Liena's face filled with astonishment. Clearly, she had never expected her teacher to suddenly have such an idea.
