Qian Daoliu

Biodata

Background / History

Qian Daoliu is the Supreme Pontiff and Grand Worshipper of Spirit Hall's Elder Hall, holding the position of Angel High Priest 1 18 84. In his youth, he traveled to Sea God Island and suffered a crushing defeat against Bo Saixi, an event that left him with lingering emotional ties and a desire to reclaim Spirit Hall's honor 69 78. For decades, his entire existence and ultimate purpose were bound by divine fate to serve as a sacrificial bridge for his granddaughter, Qian Renxue, so she could inherit the Angel Godhood 84.

Following the continent's timeline reboot triggered by Ye Yuan, Qian Daoliu's memories of his future defeat and death—along with the destruction of Spirit Hall—were restored 1. He immediately aligned himself with Bibi Dong and Ye Yuan to launch an aggressive holy war that rapidly crushed the Heaven Dou Empire, Xing Luo Empire, and Upper Three Sects 1 18 62 68. When a divine decree from the Angel God later revealed that Qian Renxue's foundation was pure enough to bypass the need for his sacrifice, Qian Daoliu was freed from his fatal burden 84. He subsequently accepted Ye Yuan's proposal to inherit the Asura Godhood, transitioning from an old guardian awaiting death into a powerful instrument of the Spirit Hall Empire 80 84.
