Douluo Continent: A Thousand Miles of Cultivation

However, Qian Renxue used her first soul skill, which combines offense and defense, to condense golden energy and punch the demon with her left hand. The powerful impact sent the demon flying.

At the same time, the fifth soul skill formed in his right hand, the Holy Sword formed from the Holy Sword, shattered the flying ice phoenix with a single strike.

In an instant, the falling ice and snow melted and disintegrated under the illumination of the sacred fire.

"Sixth Soul Skill, Angel's Roar! Third Soul Skill, Angel's Dance! Second Soul Skill, Angel's Hymn!"

The mental impact of the Angel's Roar, transformed from soul power, effortlessly withstood the mental assault of the Light of Destruction. Simultaneously, the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul unfurled its six wings and danced gracefully. The Angel's Dance granted immunity to all abnormal statuses and significantly boosted its attack and speed.

Finally, rings of white light spread from between the eyebrows, and Angel Song reduced the movement speed and output of the Thousand Water Marker by 30%.

As expected, the initial attack failed, and the soul power of the fifteen people, including Qian Shuishui, was completely exhausted, leaving them with no strength to fight again.

Qian Renxue smiled slightly, raised the Angel Sword and rushed into the red mist. A series of 'ding-ding' sounds rang out, and soon the red mist dissipated and the 'ding-ding' sounds stopped.

The Angelic True Form and the Seven Treasures True Form dissipated almost simultaneously. Ning Huahua had little soul power left, and everyone guessed that Qian Renxue, who had used up all her soul skills, probably didn't have much soul power left either.

Ning Huahua's face was extremely ugly. She stood there, looking indignantly at Hu Liena, who was kneeling on the ground, and Qian Renxue of Xieyue, who were holding the Angel Sword and pointing it at each other.

Qian Renxue, with her six golden wings unfurled behind her, remained calm. "This is your plan? You want to kill me?"

"Yagami's power! Suzaku!" The only response to Qian Renxue was Ning Huahua, who transformed into a fiery meteor and rushed towards her.

"To actually draw out additional power with such a small amount of soul power!" A flash of fire, and Qian Renxue summoned her soul rings again, this time lighting up her eighth soul ring, "Eighth Soul Skill, Enlightenment!"

A golden pillar of light shot into the sky, scattering the dark clouds stirred up by the lightning magic, and the sun finally reappeared. Under the blazing sun, Qian Renxue's soul power was undoubtedly replenished and restored.

"You're very good! It seems your teacher has taught you a lot!" A golden light flashed, carrying the sunlight that shone down again, and Qian Renxue on the field had already grabbed Ning Huahua by the neck and lifted her into the air.

From the stands, Xue Qinghe cried out urgently, "Hua Hua! Miss Qian, please show mercy!"

Ignoring Ning Huahua's 'hoarse' sounds and her constant struggles, he moved her aside, pointing at Xue Qinghe, "My primordial spirit and martial soul ignore defense, and the Fusion Ring activates the 'First Encounter Kill' under the Martial Soul True Body. Crown Prince Xue, Sect Master Ning, she's going to kill me! She's going to have another disciple of Qian Shui kill me! You don't understand what this means, do you!"

To be honest, Ning Fengzhi didn't understand, and neither did most of those present. After all, Qian Shui himself had never truly demonstrated the formidable destructive power of his Primordial Spirit Martial Soul to the outside world.

However, Ning Fengzhi had no choice but to step forward and say, "We had discussed this extensively before the battle, and His Holiness the Pope and His Holiness the Angel were both present. This was definitely not a plot to kill. Hua Hua is just upset because of Hong'er. I hope Miss Qian will be understanding and forgiving!"

Although Ning Huahua is not Ning Fengzhi's adopted daughter, she carries the bloodline of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and is one of only two Soul Saint-level Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Souls in the entire sect. He must step forward.

"Ha! To be honest, this kind of competition is meaningless to me. The so-called ten-thousand-year soul bone is nothing but a chicken bone. Even if I give up on winning or losing and kill her, so what?!" Qian Renxue sneered and tightened her grip on Ning Huahua's neck, which only made Ning Huahua struggle even more.

Just then, someone unexpectedly stepped forward, shouting, "Let go of Sister Hua! Ah!"

With a flick of her angel sword, she sent Oscar flying, who had rushed forward and was about to punch her. Qian Renxue was speechless, holding the sword in her hand as she stared at someone.

Qian Renxue: What's going on? He likes you that much?

Qianshui: How should I know?!

Oscar's actions dampened the enthusiasm of the couple who were so engrossed in their performances.

In short, Ning Huahua struggled even more fiercely, and soon, her head lolled to the side and she fainted. Qian Renxue then pretended to let go of her and put Ning Huahua down.

"Hua Hua!" Xue Qinghe cried out hoarsely, her eyes bloodshot and filled with rage.

"Qinghe, Huahua is alright, she just lost her soul power and fainted." Ning Fengzhi thought Xue Qinghe's cultivation level was too low to understand, so he quickly pulled him back.

"Tian Dou Royal Academy concedes defeat!" Faced with this situation, Xue Qinghe gritted his teeth and announced.

Ling Yunzhi's voice also came from not far away, "Tianshui Academy team, concede defeat."

"Congratulations, Qian Renxue, on your final victory." Pope Bibi Dong's voice also rang out at the same time. "However, Crown Prince Xue, has the Heavenly Dou Empire's army withdrawn yet?!"

"Okay! But only after we've left safely!"

At this moment, Ning Fengzhi finally understood what Xue Qinghe meant by selfishness, and looked at Xue Qinghe with uncontrollable shock.

It's important to understand that although Xue Qinghe wields immense power, he is not, by any means, authorized to mobilize a large army. Even if he wanted to, he would do so in a reasonable and lawful manner, by persuading Xue Ye, the apparent highest authority, to issue the order personally.

These days, Xue Qinghe has been under Ning Fengzhi's protection and hasn't left his side. He has no ability to persuade Xue Ye, who is thousands of miles away, so there is only one possibility—Xue Qinghe has used his prestige to forcibly mobilize the border army!

This level of control and methods was beyond Ning Fengzhi's understanding of Xue Qinghe. Even he had no way of knowing this before Bibi Dong revealed it.

When Qian Renxue took the brocade plate containing three soul bones from Bibi Dong and threw it to Hu Liena without hesitation, the most powerful, grandest, and most absurd final of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament in history came to an end.

The Heaven Dou Empire's delegation didn't linger; they immediately left Wuhun City, crossed Jialing Pass, and joined the Heaven Dou Empire's border army. Perhaps "escape" would be a more appropriate word.

……

At the top of Papal Hill, inside the Papal Palace.

"Teacher, I have to go. I will be carrying out the Heavenly Battle Plan by myself from now on."

Having regained his original appearance, Qian Shui returned to his lazy, blue-robed self. Bibi Dong teased Qian Qingyu in her arms but did not look at him.

"Didn't you say you were leaving with all your teammates? What? How about I get Nana and the others to help you too?"

Qian Shui glanced at Qian Renxue beside her and saw her brows furrow. She quickly waved her hand, "Uh... never mind..."

With the return plan over, the next step is to take on the Nine Trials of the Angels. Feng Jingyi alone is already giving Qian Renxue enough headaches, not to mention the Snow Emperor who has disappeared, Xiao Wu whose attitude is ambiguous, and Oscar who suddenly appears.

If another Hu Liena were to appear, then she might as well not accept the angelic divine trial. What if she becomes a goddess, only to have her man run away, and then she goes to Bibi Dong crying?

"Your plan is ridiculous. With such strength, you can just wipe them out one by one. Why go through all this trouble?" Bibi Dong was naturally puzzled. She had wanted to ask her about it in person for a long time.

"Teacher, you really have always held this attitude. Actually, the problem is very simple. Admittedly, if you want to get rid of the rats in the shadows, you can tear down the house, but the house is not at fault. Moreover, doing so will definitely result in some escaping the net, or rather, some people's hearts will escape the net."

To put it bluntly, not everyone deserves to die. Rather than annihilating and slaughtering them, it's better to lure them all out with a pitiful bait, so we can distinguish who is friend and who is foe.

"Like the team members you trained in Tiandou City? That Dai Mubai, who always looks at you with a gloomy face, watching you triumphantly, and then watching you suffer with a gleeful expression?" Bibi Dong wasn't stupid; on the contrary, she was very clever. As soon as Qian Shui explained, she understood the method of discerning people's hearts behind what seemed like nonsense.

She smiled gently, a hint of teasing in her beautiful face, "And that little boy who would risk his life for you?"

"Hey, hey, hey! Teacher! I'm perfectly normal! You can ask Xiaoxue if you don't believe me!"

Her pretty face flushed red, but the little angel, lost in thought, seemed to be thinking about something else entirely. In any case, the soft flesh around Qian Shui's waist was suffering.

"Alright, stop flirting. I won't stop you from doing what you want, I know your methods, but don't go too soft." Showing affection in front of empty-nest elderly people, are they trying to humiliate themselves? Anyway, Bibi Dong won't tolerate it, and continues reading with a straight face without expression.

"Okay, I'm off then."

"Ah."

After saying that, Qianshui left in a hurry.

"I'll take Qingyu to see him off."

"it is good."

Seeing Qian Shui leave, Qian Renxue reached out and hugged her son. It was only natural for Bibi Dong to do so. Although she was reluctant to part with him, she did not stop her.

It was already late at night. The group from the Heavenly Dou Empire had long since passed Jialing Pass and returned to the Heavenly Dou army. Qian Shui, of course, had sneaked back.

As soon as the couple left the Papal Palace, they began to whisper to each other, "Xiaoxue, are you ready? It's time for the opening of Act Two."

"Of course! I've been waiting for this day for a long time!"

Qian Renxue was somewhat excited, because the next step was to take action against Bibi Dong.

"She's still our mother, how can you just..."

"So what! I've wanted to get her for a long time!" Qian Renxue waved her little fist and said, taking out a recording soul tool from her spatial soul tool and waving it.

This is a high-end item that Qian Shui instructed Huan Hongchen to collect over half a year.

Qian Shui had given away a few ordinary image-recording soul tools, and Bibi Dong had one in her possession, which she had been using to torment Qian Qingyu these past few days.

"Let's go then, to the Star Dou Great Forest to prepare. Xuanwu Right Arm Bone Soul Bone Technique, Xuanwu Clone!"

"Ah."

A clone was created and went to the back of the Elder Hall. The two then spread their six-winged shark fins and angelic six-wings respectively, and flew towards the southwest of Wuhun City.

The Starry Sky Forest was still shrouded in darkness under the towering trees, with no bright moonlight. After everything was arranged in the Starry Sky Forest, Qian Shui's clone informed the seven elders in the Elder Hall.

"Grandpa, you can move now."

"it is good."

In the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong, who was idly looking out the window and waiting for her grandson to return, saw the Elder Hall's soul power surge. Then, accompanied by the powerful golden light of Qian Daoliu's Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, seven figures flew out together, heading towards the southwest direction outside Martial Soul City.

Bibi Dong, who knew nothing about it, was confused. What was going on? Her antics with Qian Shui during the day were already outrageous enough, so why were all seven elders mobilized at once?

She was completely baffled, yet unable to intervene, as her relationship with Qian Daoliu was not good for well-known reasons. Perhaps those seven old men had been infected by Qian Shui's foolishness and were just bored out of their minds to go out eating, drinking, and having fun?

Bibi Dong, having returned to her seat on the papal throne, shook her head slightly and chuckled. "Qian Shui is truly foolish; she's even led her astray."

However, she was somewhat restless. Nothing major had happened, and the Spirit Hall possessed absolute strength, so what did she have to worry about? All she wanted now was for Qian Renxue to return as soon as possible, so she could hold her adorable little grandson.

...

"Hey, Uncle Kiku, are you ready?"

At this moment, at the foot of Pope Hill, Yue Guan, looking unwilling, was being pulled back by Qian Shui, who stuffed a stack of photos into his hand.

"Uh... I'm still a little nervous... I can't just pick anyone..."

"No! A teacher's affairs are very private, and not many people know about them. You happen to be one of them! Tell me, is there anyone more suitable than you?"

"Old ghost!"

"Tsk! That's true, but you're already here!"

"Huh? Can't it just be..."

"No! Or you can give me back the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum!"

"I go!"

Seeing Yue Guan fly towards the Papal Palace, Qian Shui nodded in satisfaction. He looked back at the southwest direction behind him, where a strong fluctuation of soul power was erupting. The most powerful of these fluctuations was naturally Qian Daoliu's angel soul power.

With a knowing smile, Qian Shui began to prepare, pulling out the jade hairpin that bound her hair and letting her hair fall loose.

...

"Elder Yue Guan, what brings you here?" Inside the Papal Palace, seeing Yue Guan's hurried expression, Bibi Dong was also annoyed. She couldn't possibly have missed the intense soul power fluctuations in the southwest. One uncontrollable thing after another was happening, which was not a feeling Bibi Dong liked.

Seeing Bibi Dong's furrowed brows, Yue Guanxin also panicked, "This... Your Holiness, there's something you might want to know..."

"What's the matter?"

As he spoke, his soul power surged, and he sent the photo over the air. Yue Guan didn't want to get too close to Bibi Dong at this time.

"News from Heaven Dou City: Yu Xiaogang of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan... is dead..."

Before Bibi Dong could even look at the photo, she heard Yue Guan say, "Elder Yue Guan, all you know is what you're saying!"

Bibi Dong suddenly released her soul power wave, her purple eyes gleaming, and her originally beautiful face now looked somewhat ferocious.
