Papal Palace in Spirit City, a man dressed in pure white Spirit Hall robes strode into the hall.
" Your His Holiness the Pope, the Holy Maiden has returned to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Tang San and the mysterious woman only took the Holy Maiden away for a little over a month this time."
The man entered the study and reported to Qian Xunji about the situation of the girl, Bibi Dong.
"Okay, I understand."
Qian Xunji his hand, and then the man left the Papal Palace.
"Who exactly is that woman? Why did she and Tang San try to stop the conflict between the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? Why did they take Xiao Dong away? And who are they?"
Qian Xunji's mind was in turmoil. This was the first time he had felt lost about the unknown. He wasn't too worried about Tang San, but who exactly was that mysterious woman? Why had she shown him murderous intent during their first encounter?
"These are questions you'll probably never get the answers to in your lifetime."
Suddenly, a woman's voice reached Qian Xunji's ears.
Qian Xunji's pupils suddenly contracted. There shouldn't be anyone else in the Papal Palace besides him.
The woman's voice was completely unfamiliar to him; he was certain he had never heard it before, yet it was unmistakably right beside him. Turning abruptly, a look of horror flashed in Qian Xunji's eyes. Holding his breath, Qian Xunji slowly released his spiritual senses, but quickly withdrew them. There was indeed no one else in the Papal Palace besides him. So where did this woman's voice come from? " Qian Xunji, I've come to take your life."
Qian Xunji's heart tightened instantly, his eyes filled with fear. What a terrifying enemy this was, able to appear in the Papal Palace without anyone noticing. He dared not be careless in the slightest, immediately raising his Soul Power to its maximum level for full defense. At the same time, he summoned his Martial Soul, the Six-Winged Angel, wielding the Angel Holy Sword, his brows furrowed as he gazed at the empty Papal Palace. A glint flashed in Qian Xunji's eyes, and his body instantly transformed into a beam of light, traversing the entire Papal Palace and appearing on the other side.
"Such speed!" Qian Xunji exclaimed inwardly, clearly sensing that the opponent's attack had missed.
At that moment, the woman's voice rang out again.
"You think you can escape my attack?" Before the words were even finished, Qian Xunji felt his body being locked by an invisible force. Then, his body was instantly struck by a powerful energy and sent flying.
Tumbling through the air, Qian Xunji managed to steady himself and land on the ground. His eyes were filled with horror.
"What exactly is this power?"
Qian Xunji was filled with confusion. The opponent's attack was completely beyond his comprehension. He couldn't catch a glimpse of the opponent, nor could he sense the fluctuations of the opponent's Soul Power.
" Qian Xunji, I've come here this time for only one thing: to take your life."
Just then, the woman's voice rang out again. Qian Xunji suddenly looked up and saw a woman dressed in a black robe slowly appear in front of him. Her face was covered by a black veil, so he could not see her features.
"Who are you?" Qian Xunji asked in a deep voice, his words carrying a hint of solemnity.
"I am your God of Death," the woman said calmly, her voice devoid of any emotion. Then, her body instantly transformed into a streak of white light, shooting towards Qian Xunji.
A resolute glint flashed in Qian Xunji's eyes, and his body instantly transformed into a beam of light, disappearing from the spot.
"Hmph, trying to escape?" The woman sneered, her body instantly transforming into a streak of white light as she gave chase.
Papal Palace, waves of energy emanated continuously. Qian Xunji and the mysterious woman were engaged in a breathtaking battle within this spacious hall. Qian Xunji's Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul was fully unleashed, and the six wings on his back instantly released intense golden light. Qian Xunji held the Angel Holy Sword, and every part of his body was filled with powerful energy.
The mysterious woman appeared and disappeared at an eerie speed, each appearance accompanied by powerful energy fluctuations.
Qian Xunji constantly shifted his form, sometimes defending, sometimes attacking. Each attack tore through the air, carrying intense energy fluctuations. The mysterious woman, on the other hand, appeared and disappeared at an uncanny speed, easily deflecting Qian Xunji's attacks with each appearance.
" Qian Xunji, your death is near."
The mysterious woman, however, seemed to be handling the situation with ease. Her body moved like a ghost, swiftly dodging Qian Xunji's attacks while constantly launching counterattacks. The more Qian Xunji fought, the more alarmed he became. The mysterious woman's strength was unfathomable, and each of her attacks carried powerful energy fluctuations, seemingly capable of destroying everything in its path.
Moreover, it seemed that the woman was deliberately torturing him; her strength was far, far greater than his own.
Just when Qian Xunji was feeling desperate, the mysterious woman suddenly stopped attacking. Her body slowly rose into the air, her black robe swaying rhythmically in the air.
"Fine, I've had my fun. You should just die."
The mysterious woman slowly reached out, and a flawless white Spider Spear appeared in her hand.
The Spider Spear looked extremely small, but the moment it appeared, it instantly magnified, transforming into a huge white beam of light that struck Qian Xunji's body.
"Ah..." Qian Xunji let out a scream as his body was instantly blasted away by the white beam of light, crashing heavily into a wall in the distance. He slid down, blood gushing from his mouth. He struggled to lift his head, staring at the mysterious woman in the distance, his eyes filled with terror.
"You... who exactly are you?" Qian Xunji knew that this mysterious woman was beyond his ability to handle. Her strength was probably comparable to that of his father. Just who was this person?
The mysterious woman remained silent as she slowly approached Qian Xunji, each step carrying an immense pressure. When she reached Qian Xunji, a Spider Spear reappeared in her hand.
"I am your God of Death."
The mysterious woman spoke calmly, her voice devoid of any emotion. Then, in an instant, the Spider Spear in her hand pierced Qian Xunji's chest.
Qian Xunji let out a scream, his body instantly stiffening, his eyes filled with terror. The mysterious woman slowly pulled out the Spider Spear, and a stream of black blood gushed from Qian Xunji's chest.
