Inside the Comparison Space.
Huo Yuhao looked coldly at Tang San.
"Tang San, with no gods from the Divine Realm to interfere this time, I'd like to see how you survive once you leave the Comparison Space."
"The World Will won't favor an Extraterrestrial Demon like you. Not unless, like me, you carry World Fortune and have its favor."
[Heavenly Screen Revelation—Tragedy Chapter: Goddess of Angels (Empty Sorrow), Qian Renxue:]
Whoosh!
The Golden Light falling on Qian Renxue slowly changed shape until a vast golden Heavenly Screen appeared.
[You were born in Spirit Hall, at the heart of the continent. With a legacy spanning over a thousand years and a divine inheritance, it was a mountain Soul Masters could never surmount, the sacred place in their hearts, home to the most Titled Soul Masters and the place where common-born Soul Masters were discovered.]
When the first line appeared and her Heavenly Screen truly began to show her life, Qian Renxue's heart jolted. Her eyes instantly reddened, for on the screen she saw the father she had missed all her life!
[Your father was the Pope of Spirit Hall, the man of highest standing in the Soul Master World. Your grandfather was a Level 99 Limit Douluo, the Angel God's Great Enshrined, one of the Three Supremes—a man who stood at the very peak of this world.]
Boom!
In just two sentences and two flashing scenes, everyone saw the newborn Qian Renxue lifted high by a handsome man clad in golden Angel Sacred Attire.
Not far away, the man who had once hunted Tang San in Nuoding City and displayed power beyond that of a Level 99 Limit Douluo watched it all with a warm smile.
[At six, you had grown up cherished by Pope Dad and Grandpa Great Enshrined. On the day your Martial Soul awakened, golden light soared through the Angel Temple. The Angel God Statue blazed with dazzling radiance. Blessed by the Angel God, you awakened the God-Level Martial Soul, Six-Winged Angel, and received a divine gift of Innate Level 20 Soul Power!]
At this, no one watching the Heavenly Screen could stay seated.
"She was born at the top of the world! A Pope for a father and a Limit Douluo for a grandfather! What I want to know is how she ended up in the Tragedy Chapter!"
"A fake Child of Destiny: born an illegitimate child, with level-one Innate Soul Power and a family hunting him down!"
"A real Child of Destiny: born at the peak of an entire world, showered with love, with a God-Level Martial Soul and a divine gift of Innate Level 20 Soul Power!"
Without comparison, there would have been no pain. But when Qian Renxue's God-Level Martial Soul and divinely granted Innate Level 20 Soul Power appeared,
Tang San, Huo Yuhao, and Tang Wulin instantly lost their luster.
There was no denying that all three were formidable. Even Tang San, the weakest among them, could cut a swath through his peers.
But the Godhoods the three would nearly work themselves to death to obtain seemed like a joke beside everything Qian Renxue had possessed from birth.
Inside the Comparison Space.
Apart from Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena, Jin Ruir, Tang Wulin, Tang San, and Xiao Wu all watched with pale faces.
"A God-Level Martial Soul and a divine gift of level-twenty Soul Power? She was born with the Godhood I had to work myself to the bone to obtain?"
"Qian Renxue has already chosen the Way to Die. Qian Daoliu hunted me down and cost Dad half his body. If I don't avenge this, I'm no son at all!"
"Someone this heaven-defying cannot be allowed to live. Otherwise, she'll become a scourge to me someday!"
Tang San's face darkened. For the first time, he felt the gulf between their births. She had been born with everything. If she grew stronger, never mind how he would oppose Spirit Hall and her after becoming a god—he did not even know whether he would live that long.
"Big Sister Angel is so strong! She has a God-Level Martial Soul just like Senior Yuhao's, and she started with level-twenty Soul Power. I was already in my teens when I broke through to level twenty..."
Tang Wulin rubbed his head awkwardly.
[At nine, on the night your father returned to Spirit Hall from another journey, he left you forever.]
When the Heavenly Screen showed Qian Renxue crying, everyone sensed that something was wrong.
Inside Spirit Hall.
Seeing that heartbreaking moment again, Qian Renxue could no longer hold herself together. Her tears burst forth like a broken dam, and she sobbed until she could barely speak.
That was the beginning of her life's tragedy, and the start of her nightmare.
[After an upheaval in Spirit Hall, your mother split the Elder Hall and the Worship Hall to secure her power. To keep you from drawing on the Worship Hall and someday growing strong enough to threaten her position, she drove you from Spirit Hall's center of power and sent you a thousand miles away from the home that had once felt warm.]
The Heavenly Screen raced onward.
[Tang San ruined your mission, and you returned to Spirit Hall.]
At the sight, Qian Renxue's face abruptly went pale.
Others might not know what her mission was, but she knew all too well.
"The plan to swap a commoner for the crown prince failed—and Tang San was the one who ruined it..."
[You undertook the Angel Nine Trials. Spirit Hall founded the Spirit Hall Empire and prepared to unite the continent.] [Your grandfather sacrificed himself to help you finally become the Angel God...] [In the Battle of the Two Gods, your Godhood shattered. With gods from the Divine Realm interfering, the First-Generation Child of Destiny fell to the Extraterrestrial Demon. From then on, the Douluo World became that man's private garden!] [You lost everything: Spirit Hall, the Worship Hall, the Angel Godhood... Everything was gone. Empty Sorrow!]
Hummm!
Inside the Worship Hall.
A deathly silence fell.
At first, Qian Daoliu had been overjoyed to see Qian Renxue become the Angel God, fulfilling the Qian Family's thousand-year legacy just as he had hoped. By the end, his face had stiffened and his eyes blazed with murderous fury.
When he saw her Angel Godhood shatter in the Battle of the Two Gods, and the legacies of the Qian Family, Spirit Hall, and the Angel God vanish completely, he could no longer restrain himself.
"Damn Tang San! Damn Extraterrestrial Demon! Damn evil brat from the Clear Sky Sect!"
"You destroyed my Qian Family, my Spirit Hall, and the Angel Inheritance!"
"From this moment, I, Qian Daoliu, Great Enshrined of Spirit Hall and guardian of the Angel Inheritance, call upon every Soul Master on the continent: kill Tang San at any cost!"
"Whoever kills Tang San will receive a complete six-piece Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone set, crafted by me and Spirit Hall ourselves!"
A beam of golden light instantly shot through Spirit Hall, and an immense Angel Phantom appeared.
The next moment, the six Enshrined and even Spirit Hall's many Titled Elders unleashed terrifying auras.
Inside the Comparison Space, Tang San went pale, his expression changing in alarm.
"Sea God Island, save me!"
"Two Great Empires, do you want Spirit Hall to destroy you too?"
"Without me to defeat the Angel God someday, there's only one possible end for you!"
"And everyone from the Douluo I Era—do you really want to see Spirit Hall unite the continent?"
Not far away, Huo Yuhao saw Tang San panic and promptly kicked him while he was down, piling more and more onto the bounty.
"Once Tang San dies, the Sea God and Asura God's Inheritance will choose someone else. Two Godhoods—don't you want to become gods?"
"Whoever kills Tang San will be my brother and friend. If trouble finds you someday, you need only call for help, and I, Huo Yuhao, will come ready to kill!"
"As long as Tang San dies, I, Huo Yuhao, will put up the Soul Spirit Creation Method as a reward, to benefit the entire Douluo I Era!"
