This was bad!
Something was about to go wrong!
"Second Worship, spare her!"
Yue Guan and Gui Mei, along with Snake Lance and Ci Xue, who had returned with Qian Renxue, all unleashed the greatest speed of their lives.
After activating their Martial Soul Avatars, they hurtled toward the point where Golden Crocodile Douluo and Qian Renxue collided.
Second Worship, you've lost your mind! Nothing must happen to that little ancestor!
Otherwise, never mind whether Pope Bibi Dong would spare them-Qian Daoliu alone would surely plant them upside down in the ground to cosplay as ginseng.
Fortunately,
at that hair's-breadth moment,
Golden Crocodile Douluo finally pulled his strength back.
After being sent flying by his elbow, Qian Renxue had not suffered much injury.
Jiang Huai stared in astonishment at the blonde woman who had suddenly appeared and tried to attack them.
Could this reckless woman be Qian Renxue?
"Young master, this is sheer recklessness!"
"How could you suddenly attack while others were sparring?"
"Luckily, you ran into me. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare imagine the consequences!"
"And since you suddenly returned to Spirit City, why didn't you tell us old fellows? We could have gone to welcome you."
Golden Crocodile Douluo spoke with a frown.
"Second Grandpa, it's fine."
"I came back this time mainly to see the evil brat that woman took in!"
With that, Qian Renxue fixed her gaze on Jiang Huai.
Huh? She's here for me?
Wait, do we know each other?
And you're coming over to bully me?
Jiang Huai was utterly bewildered.
Golden Crocodile Douluo, however, as a powerhouse from the Worship Hall, knew why Qian Renxue had such thoughts.
It was all the wickedness wrought by the previous pope, Qian Xunji!
"Alas, young master, you're almost a Soul Emperor now, while this boy is only a Soul Grandmaster. Why make things difficult for him?"
"Besides, the pope's whereabouts are unknown right now. The repercussions of you doing this won't be good, after all."
But how could Qian Renxue listen to any persuasion?
If she did not give Jiang Huai a vicious elbowing today, wouldn't she have come back for nothing?
Besides, with that evil woman absent, Heaven itself was helping her!
"Don't worry, Second Grandpa. I know what I'm doing."
"Besides, can't they form the Hell White Tiger and fight above their level?"
"That being the case, it hardly counts as me bullying them."
Hearing this, Jiang Huai finally understood.
So she thinks I've taken away the maternal love from Bibi Dong that originally belonged to her, huh?
Oh, please. Give me a break.
He, Jiang Huai, was a man who would inherit the prime minister's spirit. How could he be interested in something like that?
"Xiao Jiang Huai, according to Senior Second Worship, she's almost a Soul Emperor. Then even our Martial Soul Fusion Skill probably won't be a match for her, will it?"
"And her Martial Soul is the legendary Six-Winged Angel, too."
Within the Hell White Tiger, Zhu Zhuyun spoke with some concern.
More than ten years ago, Spirit Hall had released a piece of news.
The child of the then pope, Qian Xunji, had died young, and the Six-Winged Angel's lineage had ended with them.
After receiving that news, the Star Luo Imperial Family had practically run about spreading the word.
Now, it seemed that was not the case.
Zhu Zhuyun had been in Spirit City for so long, yet this was the first time she had learned that the Six-Winged Angel still had an inheritor!
The waters here seemed far too deep.
"Don't worry, Sister Zhu Yun. I have a way."
"At the end of the day, the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul is also a sacred-attribute Martial Soul."
"And my domain happens to counter it!"
As his words fell, the enormous Hell White Tiger slowly disassembled, becoming Jiang Huai and Zhu Zhuyun once more.
Demon Charm also separated into Xie Yue and Hu Liena, who both stood in front of Jiang Huai.
"Little Brother Xiao Huai, don't worry. Although I don't know why this evil woman wants to attack you, if she wants to hurt you, she'll have to step over my dead body first!"
"With Teacher away, I won't let anyone hurt you!"
Across from them, Qian Renxue was amused.
In this evil fox's mouth, I've become the evil woman?
Fine, fine, fine!
In that case, she might as well deal with both of them today.
As the fifth Soul Ring beneath her feet flashed,
"Fifth Soul Skill, Holy Sword!"
Qian Renxue summoned a long sword condensed from sacred fire and held it in her hand.
"I won't bully you, either. I won't use any of my other offensive Soul Skills."
"Today, I'll show you what a true genius is!"
Qian Renxue spoke with immense confidence.
In her view, she had the might of her Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, the suppression afforded by her cultivation, and the advantage of being able to fly.
No matter how she looked at it, the advantage was hers.
At those words, Hu Liena gritted her teeth.
Damn it, what gives her the right to be so arrogant?
She, Hu Liena, was a level-35 powerhouse now!
"Don't worry, Senior Sister. I have the advantage!"
"Huh? Junior Brother, you're fighting a peak Soul King? Are you serious?"
Hearing this, Jiang Huai nodded slightly. Then he stepped forward, and a peculiar radiance rapidly spread outward from his body.
Holy Light Domain!
The stern father of those with sacred-light-type Martial Souls!
The next second, the Second Soul Ring beneath his feet flashed faintly.
Soul Skill, Holy Light Shuttle!
He vanished from the spot in an instant. When he appeared again, he had already condensed a terrifying Ultra Slash in his hand and cleaved it straight at the Holy Sword in Qian Renxue's grasp!
"What?"
Feeling the wheel of light continuously cutting against her holy sword, Qian Renxue was stunned.
What kind of cursed Soul Skill is this?
And no Soul Ring flashed. Could it even be this brat's Self-Created Soul Skill?
Impossible. Absolutely impossible!
"Brat, today I'll teach you what it means that a Soul King powerhouse must not be insulted!"
Yet just as Qian Renxue prepared to rely on her cultivation advantage to forcibly knock away the wheel of light in Jiang Huai's hand, then take to the air and find an opening to defeat him in one strike,
she abruptly discovered that her sacred power was continuously being absorbed by the wheel of light in Jiang Huai's hand, while its might was rapidly growing.
A piercing sound of air being torn apart rang in her ears.
"Something's wrong. Why are even the Six-Winged Angel's attributes being suppressed?"
"That's impossible!"
Qian Renxue could no longer maintain her expression at all.
This brat's cursed attack is actually this troublesome?
If I really don't use my other offensive skills, won't I lose to a Soul Grandmaster?
No. Absolutely not!
At this sight, a correct smile slowly appeared at the corner of Jiang Huai's mouth.
"Foolish blonde young lady, within my domain, I am the sovereign of light!"
