Douluo Continent, Spirit City, Worship Hall.
Faced with the two choices offered by the Sky Curtain System, did Qian Daoliu even need to think about which to choose?
Even a second's hesitation would have been betrayal and disloyalty toward the Angel God.
He immediately made his choice. "Sky Curtain System, please resurrect my ancestor and let her break through to God King."
As Qian Daoliu made his choice, a beam of golden light descended from the curtain in the sky, aimed straight at the Worship Hall in Spirit City.
It passed through the Worship Hall and entered the Angel God's kingdom, enveloping the Angel Godhood.
That was not all.
Carrying the Angel Godhood, the golden light crossed time and space, appeared in the Divine Realm, and headed straight into the Divine Realm Central Hub.
A figure gradually took shape within the Divine Realm Central Hub. She was the Angel God who had once died, Qian Yuhan.
Watching the Angel God on the verge of resurrection, the Sea God quietly slipped out of the Divine Realm Central Hub, planning to hide in his kingdom for a while before doing anything else.
After delivering Qian Yuhan into the Divine Realm Central Hub, the golden light vanished.
Although it had disappeared, the reward remained within Qian Yuhan.
Besides being resurrected, Qian Yuhan would also receive God King cultivation.
The words on the curtain in the sky continued scrolling.
[In 10 minutes, the fifth of Douluo's top 10 powerhouses will be reviewed.]
Spirit City, Worship Hall.
Qian Daoliu ran into the Angel God's inheritance grounds, tears streaming down his face in excitement.
After a thousand years, the Qian Family could finally sense the Angel God's presence once again.
Douluo Continent, Slaughter City.
Tang Chen was still breaking through to level 100.
Level 100 marked the transformation from mortal to god; it was not a breakthrough that could be completed in a mere ten minutes. Although the golden light had vanished, the reward the Sky Curtain System had given Tang Chen remained within him.
He frowned slightly as he watched the two choices the Sky Curtain System offered Qian Daoliu.
His frown deepened further after Qian Daoliu chose to resurrect the Angel God.
What did it matter if he broke through to level 100? What did it matter if he brought Bo Saixi to Spirit City?
Although Bo Saixi ranked above Qian Daoliu, presumably, even if she could break through to godhood, she could not reach the God King realm in a single step.
As long as he and Bo Saixi had not reached the God King realm, they could do nothing to Qian Daoliu. After all, the resurrected Angel God had already broken through to become a God King.
Although Tang Chen did not know how powerful the God King realm was, anyone who could reign as king among deities presumably could not be weak.
But when he thought of the Asura God's support behind him, Tang Chen's tightly furrowed brow relaxed again.
Presumably, if the Angel God made trouble for him, the Asura God would not stand idly by.
After all, the Sky Curtain System had already said that there was still a reason he could not die.
Although he did not know what that reason was, Tang Chen knew the Asura God would definitely intervene to save his life in a crisis.
That alone was enough.
With that, he could bring Bo Saixi to Spirit City to demand justice from Qian Daoliu.
Divine Realm, Divine Realm Central Hub.
The Angel God, Qian Yuhan, fully returned to life, and her cultivation had also reached the God King realm.
But her mind was in turmoil.
Wasn't I killed by Asura and the Sea God's treachery?
How am I alive again?
What exactly is going on?
And what is going on with my cultivation?
How did I break through to God King?
The Angel God was utterly bewildered.
She walked out of the Divine Realm Central Hub.
"Greetings, Angel God King."
Although Qian Yuhan had previously been a First-Level God, she had become a God King after her resurrection, so the First-Level Gods naturally had to show her the corresponding respect.
Faced with the respectful First-Level Gods, Qian Yuhan did not answer immediately. Instead, she scanned those present, looking for the Sea God.
She did not find him.
She could not help wondering.
Could the Sea God and the Asura God's plot against me back then have been exposed?
Have the Sea God and the Asura God already been punished by the Divine Realm?
If so, they got off far too lightly!
Although Qian Yuhan very much wanted to know whether the Sea God and the Asura God had been brought to justice, she wanted even more to know why she had been resurrected and why she had become a God King.
"How was I resurrected?"
"And what happened to my cultivation?"
"Have the Sea God and the Asura God been brought to justice?"
Faced with Qian Yuhan's three questions, the God of Lust stepped forward to explain:
"Angel God King, the Sky Curtain System was the main reason you could be resurrected, while your descendant Qian Daoliu played a smaller part."
"Your descendant Qian Daoliu gave up his chance to become a god and gave you the reward. That was how you could be resurrected and become a God King."
As the God of Lust spoke, he immediately explained to Qian Yuhan what the Sky Curtain System was.
After hearing the God of Lust's explanation, Qian Yuhan remarked:
"The Sky Curtain System... To think such a powerful, yet seemingly so uncanny, existence could be found in this world."
Although Qian Yuhan called the Sky Curtain System uncanny, she held boundless respect for it in her heart.
It was precisely because of the Sky Curtain System that she had been resurrected and broken through to God King.
Of course, Qian Daoliu's contribution could not be erased.
Qian Yuhan immediately sent down a strand of divine consciousness, which appeared within the Angel God Kingdom, deciding to let Qian Daoliu break through mortal limitations and advance to level 100, becoming a god-level powerhouse.
Faced with Qian Yuhan's third question, the God of Lust was rather baffled.
He asked, "Angel God King, could you tell me what you mean by the Sea God being brought to justice?"
"The Sea God hasn't been brought to justice?"
Qian Yuhan asked in return, then explained:
"The Sea God was inextricably linked to my death. If not for him, I would not have died."
"No wonder. No wonder."
Recalling the Sea God's strange behavior while he was still in the Divine Realm Central Hub, the God of Lust understood at last and said:
"No wonder the Sea God looked so strange when he learned you were going to be resurrected. So your death actually had something to do with him."
"The Sea God's crimes are monstrous! To think he dared harm a fellow deity of the Divine Realm!"
"So the Sea God is still alive?" Qian Yuhan pressed.
"Yes, Angel God King, the Sea God is indeed still alive. He was just in the Divine Realm Central Hub."
"The Divine Realm Central Hub has not shown him leaving the Divine Realm. Presumably, he went back to his temple to hide."
"Good. The Sea God is still alive. It's time I properly settled our old score." Qian Yuhan left the Divine Realm Central Hub at once.
Divine Realm, Sea God Temple.
Qian Yuhan arrived before the Sea God Temple. Looking at its tightly shut doors, she shouted:
"Sea God, how long do you intend to hide?"
"Come out and meet your death! I'll make it quick!"
"If I have to fight my way in, I'll make sure you learn what it means to suffer a fate worse than death!" Qian Yuhan had become a deity ten thousand years ago by continually hunting down Evil Soul Masters. She had never been one to trifle with.
The Sea God turned a deaf ear.
He knew he was certain to die if he went out now.
As long as he stayed inside the Sea God Temple and stalled until the Asura God returned to the Divine Realm, he still had hope of survival.
Although Qian Yuhan had become a God King, the Sea God considered himself no weakling.
Although he could not defeat Qian Yuhan, relying on his temple to hold her off for a while until the Asura God returned to the Divine Realm would pose no problem at all.
"Sea God, it seems you have no intention of accepting my judgment."
"In that case, I'll enter your temple myself and send you on your way."
Meanwhile, on the Douluo Continent.
The Sky Curtain System began reviewing the fifth of Douluo's top 10 powerhouses.
