The already eerily quiet Qiankun Asking Love Valley suddenly became even colder. Both Xiao Yan and Qian Renxue were plunged into despair by the sudden silence of the gray-haired old man. Even the previously Lifetime God of Goddess of Love, who considered himself a god and did not take Qian Daoliu seriously, was repelled by the aura suddenly released by Qian Daoliu.
"Come back to the Spirit Hall with me, no, back to the ancestral home of our Angel Clan. I have a way to restore you to your former self. The Angel God can purify this filth." Qian Daoliu spoke calmly, with an undeniable air, as he sensed the unfamiliar aura emanating from Qian Renxue's soul.
"Grandfather"
Qian Renxue trembled slightly, but ultimately did not make a move.
Goddess of Love wanted to speak, but was stunned by the sudden gaze that swept over him. Those eyes, almost pure to the point of divinity, revealed an undisguised divine power. The most inherited power of the Angel Inheritance had also been inherited by this old man who had been Limit Douluo for nearly a hundred years. That powerful aura was many times stronger than Qian Renxue's.
This is one of the strongest beings in the world!
At the same time, Goddess of Love also discovered a different characteristic in that transformed divinity. Goddess of Love put away his previous arrogant attitude and asked with some suspicion, "You've become a priest!? No, even priests are not as powerful as you. You're almost touching the level of Third-Class Deity."
Qian Daoliu also looked at her, but this time his expression was more indifferent than before.
"This is an inspiration I received from someone I know; I became someone like her."
"I am honored to have given up the path to godhood and become the representative of the Angel God on Earth, a servant of angels, but I must admit that the strength I have gained is nothing compared to what I have achieved." Qian Daoliu a trace of resentment, but quickly let it go, murmuring softly, " Bo Saixi, I have also walked this path, becoming powerful but without any upper limit. But for Xiao Xue, I can afford to pay this price."
The old man's already bright eyes burned even brighter, radiating a terrifying, dazzling solar power, reaching an extreme of brilliance. He stared at Xiao Yan without any emotion, then looked at Goddess of Love, "I don't care what you've done to Xiao Xue, but now I'm taking her away, and no one can stop me."
Goddess of Love scoffed, "Mere mortal, are you sure you dare to be so arrogant?!"
"Don't pretend to be some giant whale or evil dragon. I know your current situation. Your previous kindness was merely out of respect for a former god. But the moment you saw Xiao Xue become like this..." Qian Daoliu retorted fiercely to the Goddess of Love.
"I even want to kill you!"
"How dare you!" Goddess of Love roared.
The pride of a deity is inviolable, and even though she has fallen, this remains her proudest peak. She imagines that even Yao Lao and Xiao Huo, the Goddess of Love, were once just as powerful, but reality has ultimately been cruel. Now Qian Daoliu's dominance makes her feel humiliated, especially since this is all happening under the watchful eyes of Yao Lao and Xiao Huo.
If we can't even defeat a human being.
How can I possibly survive?!
To reclaim Qiankun Asking Love Valley?! I might as well just smash my head against the door and die, rather than be mocked by that short, old woman in the floral dress!
Buzz!
With a slight thought, Goddess of Love caused Xiao Yan and Qian Renxue, who were at the edge of the Qiankun Asking Love Valley, to vanish Teleportation, as if they had moved out of thin air and teleported to a mountain peak. There was no trace of spatial movement; it was a completely natural occurrence.
"Divine power!? No, it's this Qiankun Asking Love Valley that's the problem!" Qian Daoliu saw through the clue at a glance, but the next moment his long gray hair fluttered and his feet trembled. He glanced at it briefly and then dodged away.
One beautiful flower after another twirls beneath your feet and then blooms.
Pollen, like a mist, filled the air with fragrance. The rainbow-like sky was adorned with all sorts of shapes, moving without wind, following the direction of Qian Daoliu, relentlessly pursuing them.
A Lie Yan roared, and nine Soul Ring rose slowly, six black and three red!
The three terrifying Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring represent six Soul Skill!
At that moment, the eighth red Soul Ring suddenly lit up.
The crimson light ignited a bloody hue throughout the world. The most terrifying power of the Soul Ring at this moment brought about a terrifying phenomenon akin to a divine skill. A magnificent sun slowly rose, within which a human figure could be vaguely seen, with three pairs of divine wings behind him. Upon closer inspection, it was clearly the appearance of Qian Daoliu himself.
To regard oneself as a god.
This is a terrifying Soul Skill that transcends the Martial Soul Avatar!
" The Rising Sun Ascension!" Qian Daoliu!
That godlike figure, along with the rising sun, shone brilliantly in the sky. The scorching sunlight, hot enough to evaporate seawater, was like a series of lasers and Lie Yan, igniting the pollen.
Rumble, rumble, rumble.
The explosions echoed one after another, like countless fireworks bursting forth. The multicolored flames stunned the hearts of the young men and women. Outside the Qiankun Asking Love Valley, a circular area with a radius of one kilometer was transformed into a sea of fire. Amidst the dazzling explosions, countless pollen grains were ignited by the sunlight. At the same time, the great sun collided with a pink flower. The figures of Qian Daoliu and the God of Goddess of Love flashed by. Those two forces were already divine power. With the special inheritance of the Angel God's representative on earth, Qian Daoliu had already gained the strength to compete with the Goddess of Love at this moment.
Bang!
Goddess of Love was no pushover either; beneath her seemingly frail body, she unleashed explosive energy. A flower-like vine pierced through like a spear, leaving a bloody hole in Qian Daoliu's chest.
"Grandpa, be careful!" Qian Renxue shouted.
Qian Daoliu glanced at Qian Renxue, took a deep breath, and the wound on his chest healed completely in a few breaths. At the same time, the bone in his right arm was also lit up, and the power of the Soul Bone Skill was added to the Angel Holy Sword he was holding.
The Angel Set, each divine bone is ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine years old!
Just waiting for the final leap!
To become a god.
"Drink!"
Qian Daoliu roared, Holy Sword unleashed unprecedented power. With a fierce slash, a dazzling sword aura severed Goddess of Love's arm. Amidst her screams of agony, Qian Daoliu pressed his advantage, his sword striking again and again, leaving pools of golden blood in the air. Goddess of Love, struck by several swords, staggered and, with a "poof," spat out a mouthful of golden blood, was knocked down from the sky.
The Golden Crocodile Douluo, who had left but not completely, slapped his thigh hard, looking at the magnificent six-winged figure bathed in sunlight, and exclaimed excitedly, "Damn, that's amazing, Big Brother!"
Xiao Yan and Qian Renxue were also numb.
The Goddess of Love of Love, now fallen to the ground, lingered on, barely clinging to life. Though merely a wisp of the God of Goddess of Love's divine will, he was now severely wounded by Qian Daoliu.
"This is god-slaying!"
Qian Daoliu's gray hair had turned a bright gold. After defeating Goddess of Love, he showed no joy. Instead, his calm expression became even more serious, as if facing a formidable enemy.
because,
Before him, at the entrance of the Qiankun Asking Love Valley, another person appeared.
A little girl dressed in a fiery red dress hopped around, her chubby face so cute it made you want to pinch it. But this seemingly harmless, porcelain doll-like little kid made Qian Daoliu's hair stand on end.
This guy is better than Goddess of Love!
Many times stronger!
It could even be said that they are not even on the same level.
Even though the terrifying source of that intense heat was well hidden, Qian Daoliu keenly sensed it. He had only ever seen the oppressive power of this pure, extreme fire elemental energy emanating from one other being.
Angel God!
That's definitely a first -First-Level God!
"Are you the Fire God!?" Qian Daoliu's fighting spirit faded, and the fiery light he exuded dissipated, restoring his usual calm.
Xiao Huo grinned, giving an innocent-looking smile.
It's Fire God Fire God, then.
That old geezer Yao Lao just said not to reveal his identity, and now that this little old man thinks he's the Fire God, it saves me the trouble of making up so many excuses.
To gain the other party's approval
Qian Daoliu fell silent, as if he had aged decades in an instant.
He knew that if he were facing Goddess of Love below the Third-Class Deity, or even Third-Class Deity, he could put up a fight.
But what if it is Second-Class Deity, or an even more terrifying First-Level God?
Then there's no need for a fight.
After all, the Angel God he revered as the strongest, as everything, as the supreme being, was merely a First-Level God.
He was very unwilling, but there was nothing he could do.
"Aren't gods forbidden from descending to the mortal realm?" Qian Daoliu gritted his teeth, looked at Xiao Huo, and asked the question that had been troubling him the most.
At the same time, he looked at Goddess of Love.
The Goddess of Love is now a remnant of his former glory, and his strength is far inferior to what it once was. He can understand why he was able to descend to the mortal realm, which is also the reason why he dared to fight him just now.
But this little girl in front of me is clearly a game-changer in the Douluo Continent!
Can't the legendary Divine Realm do something about this!?
"Considering how many times you've cursed those damned God King of the God Realm Committee in your heart, I can tell you the reason." Xiao Huo looked at Qian Daoliu, then pointed at Qian Renxue, and said loudly, "Your granddaughter is chosen by Heaven!"
Qian Daoliu looked incredulous.
Xiao Huo pretended to be serious and said with a grin, "Believe it or not, what can you do if you don't believe me!?"
Qian Daoliu suppressed his anger and asked in a deep voice, "May I ask what you wish to do now, senior?"
"It's up to your granddaughter's own wishes. If she wants to go with you, I won't stop her. But if you try to take her away by force, there's no way you can." Xiao Huo glanced at Xiao Yan with a half-smile and said playfully, "After all, Qian Renxue is now one of our Little Yanzi's people."
Qian Daoliu's pupils contracted, and he suddenly looked up at Qian Renxue. He almost vomited blood from anger. She pointed at Xiao Yan and then glared fiercely at Xiao Huo. She looked just like the owner of a cabbage whose cabbage had been eaten by a pig.
"How dare you use such despicable methods on a girl!? Besides, Xiao Xue is the hope of my Angel Clan for generations! Aren't you afraid of the wrath of the Angel God!?" Qian Daoliu roared.
Xiao Huo frowned, getting more and more confused. Then, as if she'd just remembered something, her big eyes darted around. "What are you thinking?! We didn't do anything to your granddaughter! They're in a free-love relationship!"
"Free love!?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Daoliu's originally blood-red eyes calmed down slightly. He looked at Qian Renxue suspiciously, and the latter nodded slightly with a blush on her pretty face, which was taken as tacit agreement.
"Why!"
Qian Daoliu a long sigh.
The old man's cold gaze suddenly fell on Xiao Yan, and the chill made Xiao Yan's skin crawl. Fortunately, the warmth from Qian Renxue's tightly clenched arm made Xiao Yan feel a little better.
" Xiao Xue, don't you want to leave with Grandpa?" Qian Daoliu asked.
Qian Renxue didn't know how to start the conversation. On one hand, there was her biological grandfather, to whom she considered everything, and on the other hand, there was the man she had finally managed to be with.
Seeing Qian Daoliu Qian Renxue hesitate, Qian Daoliu knew things were in trouble. He could only speak again, saying, "Even if you don't want to return to the clan with Grandpa, you must at least tell Grandpa who made you like this!?"
"Without divine power, all that remains is corruption!"
His gaze swept over the crowd, scrutinizing them with a hint of assertiveness. "If these people dare to do this, the Angel God will surely avenge you!"
Qian Renxue shook her head.
She said softly, "I will return to the Spirit Hall in three years, and I will explain everything to you then. Please give me three years; I still want to choose my own path."
"Choose it yourself!? Do you know what your choice means? The culmination of tens of thousands of years of effort by the Angel Clan, are you really sure you've thought this through!?" Qian Daoliu said.
"Time flies, and even Angel Clan must withstand the test of time. So-called god-level families are not omnipotent. Only by becoming gods, inheriting divine positions, and becoming angels can the ancestors of the Angel Clan rest in peace."
Faced with Qian Daoliu's stern words, Qian Renxue chose to prove everything with her own strength, and the surging purple-gold halo greeted her as if welcoming a god.
In her fallen form, Qian Renxue said softly, "If becoming an angel would satisfy the sages, then what about becoming something beyond angels, beyond even First-Level God?"
"Angels are powerful, that's true, but I want to be even stronger!"
Qian Daoliu was stunned.
Want to be stronger...
Beyond Angels!?
The old man, who had placed all his hopes on Qian Renxue, even abandoned his last glimmer of hope of becoming a god and became the spokesperson for angels...
His gaze dimmed as he looked at his granddaughter, whom he hadn't seen for many years but who had changed so much, and forced a bitter smile.
The old man left behind a somewhat lonely figure, accompanied by Golden Crocodile Douluo, as the two prepared to depart.
" Xue'er, no matter what, you must come back in three years."
The old man spoke forlornly, then transformed into a ray of light and disappeared into the horizon.
He left only a calm gaze upon Xiao Yan and Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue's eyes were filled with tears.
Xiao Yan comforted the girl, which deeply moved him, and he even felt that what he was doing was wrong.
"Teacher..." Xiao Yan whispered in his heart.
As if he had expected this, the Yao Lao smiled and said, "Let's go!"
A hundred miles away, Qian Daoliu stopped.
Xiao Yan appeared before him.
The boy bowed slightly, somewhat embarrassed, and after much hesitation, finally said in a deep voice, "Greetings... Grandpa..."
Golden Crocodile Douluo gritted his teeth.
Qian Daoliu remained silent.
