Ye Guyi's holy countenance moved everyone watching, and her spiritual force seemed to reach an extraordinary intensity in that instant. The golden-white radiance pouring from her body illuminated the entire Competition Platform, as though even the darkness overhead would be torn apart.
Holiness was different from light, an entirely separate existence, yet it was even more lethal to evil than light.
Ye Guyi's right hand had now turned completely golden-white, and a powerful layer of sword radiance enveloped the Seven-Star Long Sword in her grasp.
At the same time, two snow-white wings appeared behind her. She pointed her sword forward, and its immense radiance instantly swallowed Huang Zheng's body.

Angels had been objects of religious worship in primordial times. As early as ten thousand years ago, Spirit Hall's predecessor had been a church. The reason that church had been so powerful was that it possessed holy power.
Back then, many soul beasts with evil bloodlines had roamed the Douluo Continent, and the church had earned the world's recognition by purifying them.

To them, the growth of a holy martial soul like this could threaten the very foundations
