Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 437 Ye Guyi: Ancestor, you are shameless! You made me betray my master and destroy my ancestors!
Seeing the atmosphere turn silent, Ye Guyi, remembering the divine test, quickly coughed twice and apologized to the divine consciousness within the Angelic Divine Sword that seemed to still be able to communicate.

"I'm sorry, Ancestor, my surname is Ye, not Qian. I don't know exactly how many generations I am a descendant. The family genealogy is long gone. I don't even know if I am your direct descendant... By the way, did you get married after your defeat in the war? Did you have any descendants?"

Ye Guyi first stated her surname, and then her gossip-loving nature was ignited as she inquired about Qian Renxue's private legends.

In this era, there are many legends about Qian Renxue. Some say that she retired from the mainland after her defeat and never cared about worldly affairs again, and never married. Some say that she left descendants for the Angel lineage, and there are even some tragic rumors.

The Angelic Sword fell silent again. Ye Guyi wasn't sure if she had heard correctly; there seemed to be a grinding sound coming from within the halo.

"As a descendant of angels, is this all you care about?" Qian Renxue gritted her teeth, wanting to fly out and teach this junior a lesson.

"Of course not. Let me tell you, I am now the successor of the God of Fire in the divine realm, and I am undergoing the eighth trial of the God of Fire. I want to collect back the Angelic Divine Sword that you possess and your shattered angelic divine position from back then..."

Seeing that the patriarch was in a bad mood, Ye Guyi briefly explained his purpose, then cupped his hands in a salute and loudly proclaimed in a clear and resonant voice:

"The glory of the Angels of Resurrection is today! Please, Ancestor, lend me your strength!"

The Angelic Holy Sword paused for a moment, its radiance fading to reveal its true form: a mother and child sword, with profound inscriptions engraved on its blade and a sheath inlaid with a hollowed-out six-winged angel. The entire sword radiated a dazzling golden light, exuding nobility and grandeur.

"The Fire God's Sword and the Fire God's Legacy runes in your hand have made me aware of your existence. It's good that you've come. I should thank you for helping me to be free." Qian Renxue's voice was low and weary.

"Relief? Are you trapped here?" Ye Guyi asked in surprise.

"Heh! The thing I regret most in my life is that I misjudged that person! I should have killed him at all costs back then, before he came into contact with the Sea God's inheritance!"

"Our defeat back then wasn't due to our incompetence, but rather the influence of our backers. Old Asura and Old Sea God helped that guy too much; otherwise, he would have died at our hands long ago..."

The angelic holy sword trembled, emitting mournful cries of hatred. Qian Renxue sighed and sang a lament, muttering to herself:
"Ten thousand years, hasn't it? I've been sealed here by him for a full ten thousand years. During these years, I've been in a long slumber, and even the Angelic Holy Sword has become a tool for him to manipulate the core of life on this plane. Otherwise, how could the Golden Tree be so firmly controlled by his descendants from Shrek Academy..."

Ye Guyi remained silent, her expression downcast and desolate. Her ancestor's experiences were extremely tragic, and she could not understand or empathize with such a fate, but she was saddened by it.

If people never see the light of day for ten thousand years, wouldn't that drive them crazy?

Apart from her devoted teacher, probably no one else could tolerate her, right?
"Those are all in the past, Ancestor. Rest assured, your teacher and I will avenge you." Ye Guyi made a solemn promise.

Tang San, the Sea God, appears virtuous and righteous on the surface, but in reality, he is the mastermind behind the evil soul masters. He is extremely wicked and deserves to be torn to pieces!

"What revenge can a descendant who is ten thousand years late take? It's enough to protect yourself in the divine realm and restore the glory of the angel family. Remember to have more useful descendants, unlike my grandfather and father who had descendants in their seventies and fifties, and they were all single-lineage heirs."

Qian Renxue clearly didn't have much confidence in Ye Guyi, and after giving her a slight blow, she casually said:

"And who is your teacher? The God of Fire? Even without his godhood, he wouldn't be a match for Tang San. Tang San has two godhoods, he's very powerful, unless you can find other powerful gods to help you."

“My teacher is the successor of the Water God,” Ye Guyi said.

"Having another water god won't make much difference, the Asura God is much stronger than a single first-level god... Wait, your teacher hasn't become a god yet?"

Qian Renxue caught the key point: the Angelic Holy Sword was twitching. This junior should be reliable to have cultivated to the peak of level ninety-eight, but the more she listened, the less reliable it seemed.

“He said he wants to become a god, and he can do it anytime, but he wants to break through that barrier himself before accepting the divine position,” Ye Guyi said honestly.

"Ha, what audacity! Does he think he's so powerful..."

"He has already killed Tang Hao, the father of Tang San who became a god. At that time, he was only level 96." Ye Guyi was unconvinced and boasted about Xu Tianxi's achievements to the ancestor.

"Level 96? Defeating a god? Does he possess a divine artifact? Or did the Water God secretly help him?"

Upon hearing the sensitive words, Qian Renxue became agitated, and memories from ten thousand years ago flooded her mind.

Back when she first became a god and went to chase after Tang San, Tang San was also at level 96. He used the Haotian Sect's exploding ring technique in combination with Guanyin's Tears to pierce her heart in one fell swoop. Later, with the help of the former Sea God, he escaped her pursuit.

"No, the teacher only used the Water God's inherited artifact to mobilize the power of heaven and earth, thus negating the effect of Tang Hao's Vast Ocean Universe Cover. They fought one-on-one... and with the final sword strike, Tang Hao was reduced to ashes!"

Ye Guyi's cheeks were flushed as she brandished the Fire God Sword, her eyes seemingly reflecting the earth-shattering sword strike that Xu Tianxi used to annihilate Tang Hao.

She asked herself, even now, she had no chance of winning against Xu Tianxi. Her teacher would have little difficulty dealing with her; he could probably finish the fight in ten moves.

Qian Renxue fell silent again, and from Ye Guyi's description, she could roughly imagine a terrifyingly talented genius.

Although they did not become true gods, their physical bodies and spiritual power reached the god level, and their combat techniques were far more powerful than those of their time, far surpassing techniques like the Chaotic Cloak and the Seven Kill Sword Technique.

Considering that he might not have been much stronger than Tang Hao back then, wouldn't this person's talent be even higher than Tang San's?
"...From what you've said, he seems quite impressive. Take me to meet him sometime."

"Now, go to the old site of the Spirit Hall's Hall of Worship. I will take you to find the broken fragments of the divine position. Whether you can repair it depends on your fate."

Qian Renxue felt that this person was far more powerful than a certain master from ten thousand years ago, no wonder he was so highly regarded by this junior who was about to become a god.

With the Angelic Holy Sword in hand, Ye Guyi's eyes crinkled with a smile. He began to genuinely acknowledge Qian Renxue as his ancestor and futures relative, and started muttering to himself:

"Of course he's amazing! Let me tell you, my Eight-Winged Seraphim was forged with his help. Although he's strict and ruthless, and sometimes his domineering nature borders on unreasonable, not valuing his own life or his disciples' lives, he is indeed very powerful and generous to me..."

Shrek City had long since turned to ashes. A golden streak of light pierced through the clouds from the shattered ruins of Poseidon Island, its eight wings outstretched, the wings of angelic light exceptionally dazzling, illuminating the ten directions of the earth.

A streak of light flew by, and a vast, sacred rain of light fell in profusion. The powerful soul light pierced the sky, and countless golden feathers unfurled behind him, seemingly capable of melting away all evil.

"The strength of the martial spirit is indeed quite good, even stronger than before I became a god. But don't be too complacent. You still need to hone it. You should know that everyone's combat strength after becoming a god is not necessarily the same."

In the airspace, Qian Renxue casually spoke, instructing the younger generation to strive for excellence.

"Don't worry, Ancestor. My foundation has been certified by my teacher and the Gods of Water and Fire. I guarantee it's stronger than before you became a god," Ye Guyi said with a smile.

"you……"

Qian Renxue was almost choked by this unscrupulous junior's words. It took her a while to calm herself down. She weakly released her divine sense and quickly scanned Ye Guyi.

Qian Renxue gritted her teeth inwardly, her heart hardening: "I refuse to believe I can't find your flaws... How come there really isn't a single problem?" Her foundation was solid and strong, her physical body and mental strength were both powerful, and she had broken through to the god level, much stronger than when she was level ninety-eight.

Ye Guyi seemed to know what Qian Renxue was doing. She lowered her head, glanced at the angelic holy sword whose view was mostly obscured by her own heavy chest, and comforted her gently:
"Ancestor, please don't waste your energy. I've told you before, my teacher doesn't value my life. He trains me to the point of death, and when I'm on my last breath, he'll heal me and restore my soul power so I can keep fighting..."

"For the sake of this Eight-Winged Angel Martial Soul, he personally pushed me into a purgatory where thunder and fire coexisted, tormenting me for a whole month. Even when the God of Fire used three times the difficulty of what he did ten thousand years ago, he couldn't stop me for long, allowing me to quickly reach the eighth level."

"Back then, I passed the first test of the Vulcan in just one day, breaking through 476 Vulcan Mountains in succession. The Vulcan was speechless after learning about my teacher's methods."

Qian Renxue was no longer annoyed and asked curiously, "And then? The God of Fire opened the door to convenience for you?"

"No, he doubled the difficulty again, saying he had to follow my teacher's instructions exactly, and each level would be so tough it would wear me down..."

As Ye Guyi spoke, she was on the verge of tears, like a little girl who had suffered inhuman torment and had finally found her long-lost grandmother, recounting her tragic experiences outside.

"You don't know, that fire god is extremely shameless. He was like a madman during the first five tests, trying to hone my divine body and divine consciousness. He said if I couldn't do it, I would have no face to see his wife. The successor of the fire god can't be too much inferior to the water god..."

"In the sixth test, he used the excuse that there was no high priest to personally fight me. He beat me for a whole month, and the pain I endured during that month was almost as bad as what my teacher suffered..."

Upon hearing these words, Qian Renxue was at a loss for words.

Even if Vulcan himself were to fight you, he wouldn't be as good as your teacher. Is your teacher insane?

After Ye Guyi finished crying, Qian Renxue spoke slowly, trying her best to maintain her dignity as an ancestor, and said calmly:
"So now... are you ready to accept the legacy of the God of Fire and the Angel God? As someone who has been through it, I must tell you that the ninth test is the most difficult one, and it tests your state of mind."

"If you still have any wishes to fulfill or deep-seated obsessions in your heart, you must try your best to resolve them before becoming a god, otherwise you will have trouble in the ninth trial. Alternatively, you can resolve them as soon as you become a god, otherwise you will still need to improve your state of mind after becoming a god."

"Look straight into your heart, and never try to hide anything; you can't deceive yourself."

Upon hearing this, Ye Guyi began to ponder the past. Was it a wish she wanted to fulfill, or a deep-seated obsession? She... probably did.

“Ancestor, I have an obsession, a very strong obsession.” Ye Guyi’s voice was firm, and his expression was serious.

Qian Renxue smiled inwardly, thinking to herself, "Finally, I've found an opportunity." She said calmly, "Tell me, and I'll teach you how to solve it."

"I want to go and beat my teacher up!"

Ye Guyi spoke slowly and deliberately, each word carrying the weight of gold and clouds, his face fierce and full of resentment.

"You want to betray your master and ancestors? Is your teacher some kind of beast in human form?"

Qian Renxue was shocked. She remembered the past again, this time the tragedy of her parents.

"He wouldn't be considered a wolf in sheep's clothing, but he was definitely a scoundrel... Let me put it this way, he used to be my boss, he saved my life, and then he dragged me into his organization. From then on, I worked 996 every day, he wouldn't let me rest on holidays, and he kept me training like crazy..."

Ye Guyi tearfully recounted the past, bitterly denouncing Xu Tianxi, that despicable boss, as inhuman and ruthlessly exploiting the labor of his workers.

The Angelic Holy Sword remained silent for a long time before Qian Renxue's voice finally came through. Her voice sounded strange, and Qian Renxue felt that this junior had similar emotions to her back then.

"What does your teacher look like?" Qian Renxue asked.

"Handsome and dashing, a man of exceptional talent." Ye Guyi answered without hesitation, as if Xu Tianxi's face, which both frightened and excited her, was reappearing before her eyes.

"How have you been? I mean things outside of cultivation." Qian Renxue carefully chose her words.

"It's pretty good. They basically call me whenever there's something good." Ye Guyi shrugged and sighed.

"My cultivation level only improved by leaps and bounds after I met him. Before I met him, I wasn't even a Soul King. After I met him... I haven't even refined the Soul Power of the Limit Douluo Evil Soul Master that he gave me last time. He was also the one who introduced me to the God of Fire Trial."

At this point, she couldn't help but whistle and chuckle softly:

"I'm not being modest, but how did I end up with such a boss that I both love and fear? If I didn't feel like I was losing out by being beaten every day, I wouldn't have lowered myself to become his apprentice."

"That guy probably thinks I don't know. He must feel incredibly accomplished secretly for personally training a disciple of a deity. Humph, what a vain guy..."

"Shu~"

The angelic holy sword shone brightly, and from it flew a radiant figure with golden eyes as calm as still water, who said:
"Since that's the case, after you become a god, before he becomes a god, just forcibly take care of him, hmm, that's how it is..."

"In this way, there will be no regrets in the future."

"Ah? Ancestor, what do you mean by this? Do you want me to betray my master and ancestors?" Ye Guyi was shocked.

"What kind of situation is this? You've developed feelings for someone without realizing it, and you're too ashamed to pursue them. Why not take advantage of this lull in your power to indulge yourself?"

Qian Renxue glanced at her and said with a light smile, "Let's just consider it as inheriting the bloodline. You said he's so powerful, there shouldn't be a better choice to inherit the bloodline than him, right?"

"It didn't matter to me back then, since my martial soul had already degenerated; but it's different now. There are many branches of the Angel martial soul, but your talent is absolutely unique."

Upon hearing this, Ye Guyi's face flushed crimson, and she spat out a curse:

"Ancestor, you are shameless! You're making me betray my master and ancestors! I... I'm still a virgin! You... you're saying such lewd things to me! Even he wouldn't dare say these things to me!"

"Hehe, you'll understand why I'm doing this for your own good once you've gone through the ninth test."

Qian Renxue's gaze drifted down, she chuckled softly, pointed to a distant pile of ruins, and said:

“Burning beneath that desolate land are fragments of my angelic divine position. Use the Angelic Holy Sword to collect them, and then try to gather them together with your psychic power.”

“You possess the power of faith, but you seem to lack the ability to utilize it. The position of the angel can also gather some power of faith. With this power of faith, you can break through the final shackles of level ninety-nine.”

"I'm really looking forward to seeing if the Angelic Martial Soul can shine with divine brilliance once again..."
