Douluo: Dragon King's Star Devouring Wings

Chapter 580 Tang Hao fights on his behalf
Surprise, joy, loneliness, and shame flashed through Qian Renxue's eyes. Facing the several retainers she hadn't seen for a long time, a complex mix of emotions surged through Qian Renxue's heart.

"Grandpa Golden Crocodile, now that you're all here, what about Grandpa...?"

Qian Renxue looked at Golden Crocodile Douluo with hope in her eyes. Apart from letting down her several grandfathers who were enshrined, the death of Qian Daoliu was the biggest regret in Qian Renxue's heart.

Although it wasn't the time I chose, I'm really happy...

Faced with Qian Renxue's question, Golden Crocodile Douluo smiled without saying a word, and simply looked silently at the sky.

After being injured by the combined attacks of Light Feather Douluo, Lion Douluo, and Azure Phoenix Douluo, Yun Ming was further injured by Golden Crocodile Douluo's tail attack.

[Damn it, how did those old bastards end up here? Shouldn't they be dead already?]

Before 'Yunming' could figure out the answer to the question, he was shocked to find that the divine power around him was so dense that it was almost outrageous.

A figure appeared in Yunming's mind—the terrifying being who had once driven him to the brink of despair and hunted him down like a stray dog.

[It's him? Could he still be alive?]

Just then, a majestic yet indifferent voice suddenly rang out from the sky: "Angel Judgment!"

Above the sky, the once clear sky was suddenly torn open with a dazzling rift, from which intense crimson-gold light burst forth, as if a newborn sun had risen.

In an instant, a golden giant sword formed from pure flames and light, carrying an aura of earth-shattering destruction, shot out from the crack.

When 'Yunming' sensed something was wrong, an invisible, immense pressure enveloped him like Mount Tai pressing down on him.

He instinctively looked up, his pupils instantly contracting, and he froze in mid-air—the giant sword, like a pillar of heaven, shattered the clouds and space as it plummeted, its blazing flames and golden sword energy spreading wildly.

The golden greatsword, accompanied by a thunderous roar and carrying the power to destroy everything, crashed straight down towards 'Yunming'.

Faced with this irresistible, catastrophic power, Yun Ming's body appeared incredibly small. He desperately circulated his Xuan Tian Gong, raised the Qingtian Spear, and spun it rapidly, forming a silver-white protective shield.

However, all of this was futile. The moment the giant sword touched the Sky-Piercing Spear, it shone brightly, and the powerful impact shattered the barrier. The aftershocks, like a surging tide, instantly engulfed 'Yunming'.

With a piercing scream, 'Yun Ming' was swept along by the impact of the giant sword like a kite with a broken string, plummeting rapidly towards the ground.

Wherever it passed, it left a long, blood-red trail in the sky.

'Yunming' crashed heavily to the ground, creating a huge crater and kicking up clouds of dust.

After defeating 'Yunming', the golden giant sword slowly dissipated, and a figure appeared in the sky.

He was a man who looked to be only in his thirties, and was very handsome. His long, golden hair, past his shoulders, was draped behind his head, and he wore a faint smile on his face, giving off a calm and serene aura.

He was tall but not muscular, and dressed in blue and gold armor and robes. Just by standing there, he gave off a feeling of being the core of the world.

Needless to say, this is Qian Daoliu, the former Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall 20,000 years ago and the guardian of the Angel God.

"Grandpa!" Upon seeing that towering figure again, Qian Renxue could no longer control her emotions and threw herself into Qian Daoliu's arms.

Qian Daoliu looked at his granddaughter in his arms with affection and gently patted her back. "Xiaoxue, you have suffered so much all these years."

"Grandpa, I'm sorry... I... You sacrificed so much for me... I... I still lost in the end..." Qian Renxue was already sobbing uncontrollably in Qian Daoliu's arms.

Over the years, she has never been able to forgive herself; it was her arrogance and conceit that gradually ruined such a promising situation.

This ultimately led to the destruction of the Spirit Hall.

Qian Daoliu comforted her, "Xiaoxue, Grandpa has never blamed you. This time, after returning to the continent, I have come to understand that what happened back then was inextricably linked to the Asura God."

"No matter what, we cannot change our fate of becoming stepping stones for the successor chosen by the God of Asura."

Qian Renxue was taken aback, then looked at Qian Daoliu in surprise, "Grandpa, you all knew?"

The truth from 20,000 years ago was revealed to Qian Renxue by the old master of the plane when she acted as the core of the Blood God Array, triggering a resonance between heaven and earth. However, Qian Daoliu also knew the truth.

Qian Daoliu said, "When that being summoned you, our souls were also awakened, and we wanted to protect you."

"But there was only one spot for resurrection. At that time, a voice asked us if we were willing to have our souls temporarily sealed in your divine position."

"When you break through to the Title Douluo level, it will be used as your ninth soul skill to help you. As you can see, we all agreed. During the sealing process, that voice also told us the truth of what happened back then."

Qian Renxue stared blankly at the seven great elders who had gathered, tears streaming down her face. Even after 20,000 years, the elders still chose to protect her with their lives without hesitation.

Protect the self that once carried everyone's hopes, but lost everything.

"Alright, Xiaoxue, you're all grown up now, so stop crying all the time. It's not pretty." Guangling Douluo skipped over and said.

"We haven't gotten together for 20,000 years, why are you ruining the atmosphere?" Azure Phoenix Douluo slapped Light Feather Douluo helplessly.

However, with Guangling Douluo interrupting, Qian Renxue wiped away her tears and said, "That voice should have originated from the Lord of the old plane."

"The old ruler of the plane? Could it be that the ruler of the plane has changed?" Golden Crocodile Douluo asked doubtfully.

After that, Qian Renxue told the seven elders everything she had learned about the relationship between the plane's master and Tang San since she was summoned by the Holy Grail.

"That kid Tang Hao has really made something of himself! He's actually become a plane master." Lion Douluo said disdainfully.

"In just 20,000 years, the continent has undergone such a huge change?" the Demon-Slaying Douluo exclaimed.

"It's a pity I can't go out and play myself," Guangling Douluo sighed.

"So, that kid with the gun was probably possessed by Tang Hao. No wonder he was using the Haotian Nine Techniques even though he was using a gun," said Golden Crocodile Douluo.

"Grandpa, can you stay by my side like this forever?" Qian Renxue asked tentatively. Although the scene of their meeting was somewhat different from what she had imagined, being with her family was an invaluable experience for her.

Qian Daoliu shook his head regretfully. "Xiaoxue, we are not truly resurrected. Our condition is unstable, and we will soon fall into slumber again."

"However, we will definitely appear again when you are in danger."

After hearing Qian Daoliu's words, Qian Renxue nodded with some regret. After being reunited with her family for 20,000 years, she really didn't want to be separated so soon.

But Qian Renxue quickly rallied, "Next time, I will definitely be stronger." Looking at his resilient granddaughter, Qian Daoliu smiled slightly, "Xiaoxue, don't put too much pressure on yourself. We will always protect you."

After speaking, a golden light emanated from Qian Daoliu and merged into Qian Renxue's brow. "Xiaoxue, this is some information we have obtained so far."

"Alright, we're going to fall asleep again, but the longer you stay, the stronger you are."

After Qian Daoliu finished speaking, the seven elders bid farewell to Qian Renxue in turn, and then their figures turned into light and disappeared.

"This time, I definitely won't let you down again..."

...

After the seven elders, including Qian Daoliu, left, Qian Renxue quickly deduced the result based on the information Qian Daoliu had given her.

After Qian Renxue was summoned by Qian Gu Huang Yu using the Holy Grail, Xin Mo Xue was also summoned in some ways because she was also a 'Qian Renxue', and thus became her Noble Phantasm.

In order to protect Qian Renxue, the seven great elders were sealed into the positions of angels with the help of the old plane's lord.

After Qian Renxue finally broke through to the Title Douluo level, she no longer needed a soul spirit to provide her with soul rings; the seven elders directly became her soul rings.

Nourished by the divine positions of the angels, the seven high priests are now far more powerful than they were 20,000 years ago.

This is why, despite lacking physical bodies, they were able to hold their own against 'Yun Ming'.

In addition, the strength of Qian Daoliu and his group was not only influenced by the Angel God's position, but also related to Qian Renxue's strength.

Simply put, as Qian Renxue's strength increases, their strength will also increase.

[So, if I return to the level of a first-tier god, can my grandfather and the others become like my divine messengers? If so, completely resurrecting them shouldn't be too difficult, right?]

Thinking of this, Qian Renxue's heart was filled with excitement and joy.

However, before that, there's another problem to deal with: Tang Hao…

Long ago, Qian Gu Huang Yu had already told Qian Renxue that Tang Hao, the father of her mortal enemy Tang San, had now become the ruler of the plane.

Now, Qian Renxue has also realized that the reason why Yun Ming suddenly became so strong was because Tang Hao used the Vast Ocean Universe Cover to temporarily possess Yun Ming's body to fight for him.

This newly appointed ruler of the plane could no longer sit still after discovering that too many things had happened that were beyond his expectations.

He chose to nip the threat in the bud.

Without the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, Tang Hao probably wouldn't be able to make a move, right? And even if he did, he probably wouldn't go all out to avoid alerting the Abyss Saint King.

[Alright, let's go back and have a good talk with Sister Huang Yu about this. Before killing Tang San, let's collect some interest first.]

After a moment's thought, a bright smile appeared in Qian Renxue's eyes. She hadn't forgotten what she was there to do: she was there to steal the bride!
Qian Renxue stood alone high in the sky, the golden sunlight shining on her exquisite body, draping her in a golden robe, making her look like a goddess from heaven.

Six pure white wings fluttered gently, carrying Qian Renxue's delicate body as she flew downwards.

Ya Li had already eagerly walked out of the pavilion where she was watching the battle, looking at Qian Renxue who was descending from the sky with anticipation.

All the worry and heartache that Qian Renxue had felt when she was pushed to the back by Yun Ming vanished, replaced by hope and happiness in Ya Li's eyes.

Qian Renxue landed in front of Ya Li, picked her up around the waist, and held her in her arms in a princess carry.

"From now on, you belong only to me." Qian Renxue looked directly into Ya Li's eyes and said domineeringly.

A slight blush rose on Ya Li's pretty face. She leaned against Qian Renxue's fair and delicate shoulder, shyly snuggling against her in her arms, and hummed softly, "Mmm."

Qian Renxue's lips curled slightly, and with a flap of her six wings, she and Ya Li soared into the sky, transforming into golden shooting stars and disappearing from sight.

...

"What exactly is going on?" Yu Haosheng frowned as he stared at the disappearing golden meteor, preparing to fly over and check it out.

Qian Gu Die Ting quickly stopped Yu Haosheng, saying, "They just finished robbing the bride; don't go up there and annoy them."

That being said, Qian Gu Die Ting's doubts were no less than theirs: "Old Bei, what was that Yun Ming doing just now? Does the Vast Ocean Universe Cover have such an ability?"

Although Qian Gu Die Ting had never seen the Vast Ocean Universe Cover before, based on the information he had, he deduced that it was the Vast Ocean Universe Cover that was helping Yun Ming.

At this moment, Bei Dexun was examining Yun Ming's injuries, his brows furrowed. "That should be the power of the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, but I didn't know beforehand that the Vast Ocean Universe Cover could be used in this way."

"Judging from the changes in Yunming's meridians, the Vast Ocean Universe Cover just now directly elevated Yunming to the Quasi-God realm."

Le Jingchen exclaimed in surprise, "It's not just quasi-god combat power, but a genuine quasi-god realm?"

Bede Xun nodded slightly. "That's right. During the time when Yun Ming was possessed by the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, he was a true quasi-god.

Upon hearing this, Yue Jingchen couldn't help but gasp. The difference between quasi-god combat power and quasi-god realm was enormous. Combat power was merely destructive force.

However, once one's realm is elevated, even if it is only a temporary improvement, the experience of witnessing the scenery of a quasi-god in advance is undoubtedly of great help to a soul master.

Simply put, this allows a Soul Master to experience the realm of a Quasi-God in advance, making it easier for them to work towards a clear direction.

This will allow Yun Ming to reach the level of a quasi-god sooner.

However, the fact that Bedell claimed he was unaware of the matter was also accepted by others, because if Shrek Academy really had such a treasure, it was impossible for them not to use it for 20,000 years, but instead use it at this particular time.

"Old Bei, can this thing be reused? The Spirit Pagoda and Shrek Academy are from the same source and are like family. You wouldn't be stingy with it, would you?"

Qian Gu Die Ting affectionately put his arm around Bei De Xun's shoulder, just like a brother.

This is also their biggest concern. Once it is confirmed that this can be replicated, then it is even possible to mass-produce Limit Douluos, and even Quasi-Gods.

Bedell looked at the overly familiar Qian Gu Dieting with a dark expression, thinking to himself, "You weren't there to speak up for Shrek during the Five Gods' Battle, and now you're calling me 'brother'?"

However, Bedell Hon. still told the truth, "I don't know. We'll have to do experiments to prove it when we get back."

It's out! It's out!
