Sleep, Sleep

On a mountain peak above the Heaven Dou Empire's camp, a tall and exquisite woman sat on a hill. Her bare, white feet dangled in the air, each toe adorned with a golden ring. A golden thread extended from her toes to the fishnet stockings on her calves, making her appear so Charm that one couldn't help but want to play with them.

"That's quite a sight! Even though I've tried to overestimate you time and time again, your performance always surprises me..."

Even from a thousand meters away, Ye Yuxuan could easily see the icy white canyon formed by Yu Tianshuang's sword strike, a stark contrast to the surrounding yellow tones. The visual impact was immense. The shocking scene of that snow-white giant sword falling that day still echoed in her mind. The man hovering in mid-air, radiating confidence... unfortunately... we are enemies.

"Judging by the time, it's been over a week, and she still hasn't come looking for me. Was the information I left not clear enough? Or has Qian Renxue already completed her God Trial? It shouldn't be that fast, otherwise Jialing Pass would be shrouded in the justice of the Angel God by now..."

"However, I didn't expect Tang San and his son to be directly killed by Shui Bing'er. According to the plan, the Clear Sky Sect should have held out until the Heaven Dou Empire's million-strong army entered the battlefield. It's a pity... This has to postpone my plan for a while. But your key will arrive soon, hehe, Tang San. I hope you can hold out a little longer this time. Don't worry, your opponent has already been arranged for you, Yu Tianshuang... He's mine!"

Ye Yuxuan sat alone on the hill, her black eyes as deep as the night. Her peerless face, hidden beneath a black veil, revealed no expression. She was talking to herself, and no one knew what she was planning, until a golden light flashed and Qian Renxue (?), with golden hair, stopped not far from her.

Ye Yuxuan looked at Qian Renxue hovering in the air and said in a familiar tone, "You've come... It seems my intuition was right, waiting for you today was the right thing to do..."

"Come sit down, let's have a good chat..." Ye Yuxuan patted the empty seat next to her as if she were greeting an old friend she had known for many years, and even moved over with her small hand.

"..."

Qian Renxue didn't move, but said coldly, "You knew I was coming to find you? Then guess if I'm here to kill you..."

After saying that, he drew the Angel Holy Sword and pointed it at Ye Yuxuan. He compressed all his Soul Power into the sword's edge, and the stone in front of Ye Yuxuan was instantly crushed into powder. However, Ye Yuxuan remained unmoved in the face of such terrifying pressure. Her beautiful eyes seemed to speak, curving into crescent moons as she quietly looked at Qian Renxue.

"Let's have a proper chat. Why pretend you don't know the answer? Look at you, you don't even dare to unleash your full Soul Power. Why are you compressing it? Are you afraid someone will find out?"

"We're both smart people. I know exactly why you came to see me. After all... that was something I deliberately left for you..."

Qian Renxue frowned. All the information we have now, and all the deductions we've made, were deliberately leaked by her? How could that be...? And how did she know I would come looking for her...?

Ye Yuxuan could see that Qian Renxue was very confused at this moment. She waved her hand and gestured to the stone beside her, saying, "Put your weapon away first. I know you're confused, but it's okay, I'll give you a reasonable explanation..."

"Go ahead and tell me... I'd like to see just how amazing you are, pretending to be so profound!" Ignoring Ye Yuxuan's gaze, he simply put away the Angel Holy Sword and looked down at her.

Ye Yuxuan helplessly shrugged, then stood up and flew to the same height as Qian Renxue. Her eyes remained expressionless as she looked directly at her and said, "What do you think is the strongest point of our Holy Spirit Cult? Is it those mindless cannon fodder? Or the quickly produced Titled Douluo? Actually, it's neither. It's the spirit. Do you understand now why we founded our sect in the name of the Holy Spirit?"

"Alright, let me put it simply. The greatest strength of our Holy Spirit Cult lies in our research and exploration of the spirit, whether it's the Holy Spirit... or any other spirit, including your flawed soul!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue's beautiful eyes widened instantly, and she looked at her in disbelief. "It seems you understand... That's right, from the first time you appeared on the battlefield, I discerned that the spirit now possessing this woman who is about to become the first god of the Douluo Continent is incomplete... And this, with just a little research into the creed of the Angel God, one can understand why this situation has occurred..."

Qian Renxue carefully recalled the details of the battlefield that day, confirming that the unfathomable woman before her had definitely not appeared on the battlefield. If it were due to distraction during the battle, that would be understandable, but they had only met once before. "I clearly remember that you weren't on the battlefield at that time. Even when you came out to negotiate at the end, I didn't sense any fluctuations in your detection. When exactly was that? What methods do you possess that even the level 99 Bibi Dong couldn't see through..."

"Let's specialize in our own fields. And don't be so narrow-minded in your view of our enemies, constantly calling them 'cults' and 'demonic sects.' Since we founded our religion in the name of the Holy Spirit, we didn't just shout it out lightly. How we know isn't really important, is it? What's important is our cooperation going forward, isn't it?"

After a moment of silence, Qian Renxue said, "I need you to create a completely new physical body for me and transfer my soul there. As for what else you want... I will grant your request..."

"Why go through all this trouble? You already have a perfectly good body, why change it? It's not like it's broken or unusable. And even if it were broken, I could fix it for you, couldn't I?" Ye Yuxuan's words were pointed, reminding her of the burly man Zhong Meng that she and Huo Wu had killed.

Hearing this, Qian Renxue scoffed. It seemed she had been intimidated by the woman's unfathomable demeanor. "Hmph, easy for you to say. Do you think I haven't tried? Even though my soul is participating in the God Trial and slumbering within my body, she is protected by the Divine Power of the Angel God. I've tried countless times; it's impossible to break through the defenses left by the Angel God. That's divine power... And I can sense that she's about to awaken. When she inherits her Godhood, annihilating us mortals will be as easy as snapping her fingers."

"That's just because you can't, and... when did I ever say that I needed to break through the Angel God's defenses to help you? Aren't you making good use of this body right now?"

"You'd better be blunt, I'm getting impatient..."

"Okay, okay... let's put it simply, why don't we just let her stay asleep forever?"
