— Chapter 153 —

Han Yuan walked out of the venue alone. He glanced at the torn sleeve and shook his head helplessly because there was still an elder out there who could push him this far.

As expected of the cultivation world. Any elder who has lived that long should not be underestimated.

Han Yuan stared at the round white moon and sighed, ‘There are true experts in this world, unlike a certain member of Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.’

Although Ji Rouchen’s cultivation wasn’t high, his attainment in the wind attribute and sword is high. That charged sword slash could easily cut an unprepared Spirit Douluo in half.

Of course, if the attack misses, Ji Rouchen will lose.

However, Han Yuan didn’t do that. He forcibly broke the sword slash and basically disintegrated it into an atom. That’s just how strong the Nuclear Force is.

Unknowingly, Han Yuan has walked into a small park near the venue. He blinked and shook his head, ‘I should probably delve deeper into that feeling before naming that move.’

‘The potential was too big to ignore.’

‘It can even be considered a divine skill.’

Suddenly, Han Yuan felt a movement behind him. He frowned slightly and glanced to the left, seeing a flash of gold.

On the park’s bench, a beautiful young woman sat calmly. She appeared to be around 18 or 20 years old, with long, golden hair cascading down to her charming, youthful curves, which were ‘elegantly’ covered by a white dress adorned with golden trims that looked like wings. Her long legs were covered with silky white thigh-high stockings, ending with short silver heels. Her face was flawless and free of makeup, enhanced by softly shaped brows and eyelashes, a sharp nose, and cherry-red lips.

Among the women Han Yuan knew, this young woman could easily reach the top three.

Han Yuan narrowed his eyes on her and asked calmly, “And who might you be, young lady?”

Even though Han Yuan said this, he could already guess who this woman was.

The “fake” crown prince of Heaven, Dou Empire.

The Inheritor of Angel God, Qian Renxue!

The young woman curved her lips, “I didn’t expect the youngest Spirit King to be so vigilant.”

“With your strength, you don’t have to be so on guard against a weak, defenseless girl like me, right?”

Han Yuan’s mouth twitched inwardly, ‘Which part of you is weak and defenseless?’

Under the Eyes of Truth, Qian Renxue was left bare. Of course, not literally.

…

[Name: Qian Renxue]

[Race: Human]

[Age: 20]

[Martial Soul: Seraphim (Divine)]

[Cultivation: Level 60 Spirit Emperor]

[Battle Prowess: Level 75 Spirit Saint]

[Description: The Future Angel God, Qian Renxue, carries expectancy and the rise of the Spirit Hall. Nevertheless, due to her gloomy childhood, she became obsessed with impressing her cold mother. She went so far as to crossdress as a prince for years, and waste her god-given talent. Little Angel has a Mommy Issue, maybe she needs a Daddy Issue, too~!!]

…

Han Yuan was impressed.

A half-step Spirit Emperor.

A God-level Martial Soul.

Fighting prowess rivaling that of a level 75 Spirit Saint.

One word, Good!

Although Qian Renxue has wasted her Innate Power, her cultivation speed is still fast. Not to mention, she was able to fight over a fifteen-level difference.

As expected of a God-level Martial Soul, the attributes and the innate domain really gave Qian Renxue the ability to fight against someone fifteen levels stronger than her.

‘But a 20-year-old Spirit Emperor is not really impressive to me.’ Han Yuan couldn’t help but lament at this girl’s foolishness. His standard for one’s cultivation has always been high, and he couldn’t bear to see such a “good” talent wasted.

Then, again, Han Yuan and Qian Renxue have nothing to do with each other.

Well, there is Martial Soul Fusion, but that’s it.

In the past three years, neither of them had initiated the other to do Spirit Fusion!

Qian Renxue stared at Han Yuan’s handsome face and remembered her meeting with her grandfather not too long ago.

— Flashback —

“Once upon a time, our ancestor, Angel God, was also a mortal.” Qian Daoliu told Qian Renxue a story from an ancient manuscript of their Angel’s lineage.

“Back then, she was just a hopeless girl with a mutation that caused her to grow a pair of white wings. According to the legend, her wings are her martial soul, though it wasn’t confirmed yet.”

“However, she fought the darkness bravely. And each time she judged evil with her sword, her power grew, and another pair of wings appeared on her back.”

“She also started using more and more of the power of light developed by herself, followed by holiness and fire.”

“The girl has grown into a woman.”

“She became an aloof yet kind figure that shields the weak from the strong evil.”

“She became the holy fire that illuminates this world!”

“Many humans revered her, even worshipping her; thus, Spirit Hall got founded.”

“Then, one day. She received a revelation from the sky.”

“A god has descended and spoken that he was willing to take her as his disciple and inheritor.”

“That god is Thunder God!”

“What happened next?” Qian Renxue’s eyes lit up.

Qian Daoliu smiled, “She agreed to become that god’s inheritor.”

“After all, they are compatible with each other.”

“Thunder God wields the power of lightning and thunder, which also has authority over judgment. From the ancient manuscript, Thunder God was ‘strongly’ described as the one who wields the wrath and punishment of heaven.”

“On the other hand, the woman possessed the power of light and also had the nature to judge evil, which is compatible with lightning and punishment.”

“They are a match made in heaven.”

“Unfortunately…” Qian Daoliu’s smile vanished as he sighed.

“I don’t know what happened exactly, but they broke off. The relationship between the woman and Thunder God becomes cold.”

“What, how could that be?” Qian Renxue was shocked.

Qian Daoliu helplessly replied, “This portion of the manuscript was gone due to a lack of preservation. The following manuscript only described the woman’s journey to become a god by eradicating all evils on the continent before ascending as the Angel God.”

“In other words, she was our ancestor.”

Qian Renxue was speechless, “This…”

Qian Daoliu patted Qian Renxue’s head, “I don’t know how Han Yuan got the inheritance of Thunder God, but I think his martial soul most likely mutated in this direction.”

“As the descendants of Angel God, it’s our duty to uncover the truth and mend the relationship between the two Gods.”

“So, Xue’er. I hope you can get close to that boy.”

“In fact, befriending him might get you an unexpected blessing.”

Qian Renxue digested her grandfather’s words and replied, “I understand, Grandpa!”

— Flashback’s End —

Qian Renxue stared at Han Yuan’s silver eyes, catching a flicker of purple light inside. “Hehe. I’m not from around here, but I heard you’re quite an interesting person, and I came to see exactly what makes you interesting.”

“Oh, and what do you get after seeing me personally?” Han Yuan responded casually.

“You’re a monster.” Qian Renxue answered bluntly. “With your talent and background, you can easily become one of the strongest figures in this world.”

“Yet, you lacked ambition.”

“And that’s weird.”

“However, that quality also makes you very mysterious in my eyes.” Qian Renxue’s purple eyes gleamed with enthusiasm. Those eyes seemed to want to know every secret that Han Yuan hid all these years.
