Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue.

Chapter 74 Above the Divine Realm, Destruction and Protection

Beyond the Douluo Continent, there exists a colossal, seven-colored sphere. Inside this sphere, the clouds and mist shift and change, sometimes surging like waves, sometimes resembling a serene beauty. Each transformation is erratic, possessing a beauty and awe that disregards the fate of those below.

Dense primordial energy of heaven and earth lingered in the clouds and mist, and golden specks shimmered under the halo of light. This was a special space formed by the spiritual power of various planes.

A priest recalled that decades ago in the divine realm, the Temple of Angels and the Temple of Rakshasa collapsed with a deafening roar.

After that, another group of people came to the realm of gods, with unruly eyes and an aura of looking down on the world.

None of this mattered to him, because he was just a priest, and no one would care about his name. Similarly, he wouldn't care why the Temple of Angels and the Temple of Rakshasa collapsed, or what the names of these newcomers were.

However, he did not consider himself ordinary. He was extremely arrogant and believed that he was a unique existence in the entire divine realm.

Because his job was to open the door to the Divine Realm Committee.

All he had to do was open the doors to the Divine Realm Committee at a set time every morning and close them at a set time every afternoon, day after day, year after year. He repeated the same work every day, and he didn't remember what he did before this job, nor did he know when he would retire.

None of that matters. What matters is that he's the priest who's currently opening the doors to the Divine Council. If he were to go on strike one day, the God-King wouldn't be able to hold a meeting either. So he's very satisfied with his job; his life is structured, and he receives a monthly bonus.

So what if he's a God-King? God-Kings also come and go! He has already seen different faces enter this God Realm Committee, and perhaps new faces will appear in the future, but he will still be the one opening and closing the door.

Look, the divine realm has been passed down for three or four generations; even though the God-King is gone, he is still here.

He was very proud because he was the most important cog in the divine realm; the divine realm could not function without him.

"Poseidon! I...%(&%)￥..."

A commotion arose from the Divine Realm Committee.

"Destruction? You can't say that. My daughter is currently in Douluo Continent..."

In the priest's memory, such a quarrel had not occurred for a long time. The last time it happened was a long time ago, when a certain first-level god tried to escape from the divine realm and was eventually caught and brought back for trial. The way to deal with him caused several god kings to quarrel.

A god is in trouble. The priest stood motionless and expressionless beside the committee's door.

"So you've really mastered all the skills of the former Sea God Shura," the God of Destruction said coldly in the God Realm Committee. "As the God King of the God Realm, how dare you interfere in the mortal realm? Are you planning to directly implant the power of destiny from that auspicious beast in the Douluo Continent into your daughter's body?"

"Destruction? You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want." Sea God Tang San looked at the purple-robed figure before him and said with a smile, "I was merely paying a little attention to my daughter's development; how did it become such a disgraceful thing in your mouth?"

The Goddess of Life patted the God of Destruction on the back: "Little Purple, don't be angry. It's normal for the Sea God to care about his daughter. He is a dual-god, so naturally he will consider the rules of the divine realm."

"Rules? He has no concept of rules?" The God of Destruction remained coldly indifferent. "If I remember correctly, before today's meeting, you and the God of War seemed to have manipulated the Douluo plane, didn't you?"

Although no one knew what was going on inside, a god was in trouble. The priest stood by the gate, motionless and expressionless.

"No, no, no, don't misunderstand. I just saw that the Star Luo Empire in the Douluo Continent was too dry, so I sent a little rain." Tang San said with a smile. "The Goddess of Life can attest to this; Douluo has indeed recently experienced a drought. A day in heaven is a year on earth, so I was just trying to send down some sweet rain!"

"I'm warning you, you'd better not have any such wicked thoughts." The God of Destruction couldn't say anything more.

Tang San smiled and thought to himself, "Of course you don't understand me. How could an old man like you possibly comprehend my plans?"

The God of Destruction maintained his cold expression, then thought to himself, "You're about to get into trouble."

Because Tang San paid too much attention to the Douluo Continent, he aroused the suspicion of the God of Destruction, so the God of Destruction was also paying attention when Tang San was not looking.

Then, he inadvertently discovered a familiar aura. It was the lingering aura of the fallen Angel God from long ago. As the first God-King, the God of Destruction naturally disliked this new Sea God and Asura God, because he also knew how this guy obtained his divine position.

So, without Qian Renxue's knowledge, the God of Destruction helped her by slightly concealing her aura, allowing her to evade Tang San's detection.

Destruction also hoped that this inexplicably appearing angelic aura could successfully attain enlightenment and return to the divine realm. Because among all the first-level gods, angels are among the few who possess the ability to evolve into god-kings. This would allow them to restrain this shameless new god-king.

The first angel was forced into rebellion by the conspiracy of the former sea god and Shura. He attempted to escape the divine realm but was ultimately captured and brought back for judgment. This matter is extremely strange, but there is no concrete evidence.

Therefore, Destruction also hopes that the angels can return and is willing to offer a little help. After all, it was you, Sea God and Asura, who broke the rules first.

To save his successor, the Sea God even descended to the mortal realm in his true form, throwing the successor of the Angel God into the dimensional barrier!

This incident caused a huge uproar in the divine realm at the time, but there was nothing that could be done now.

"Then tell me, what have you been doing to the ocean in the Douluo Continent lately?" Destruction said coldly.

"I didn't do anything. It's just that, as the Sea God, and one who rose from the Douluo Plane, I know about the problems with the ocean in the Douluo Plane," Tang San said slowly. "The ocean, as the largest part of a planet, is also the most important part of its ecosystem. Is that statement correct?"

Even the God of Destruction had to agree with this statement.

"In the ocean of the Douluo Continent, a beast race that had lived for a million years almost appeared—the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. As everyone knows, it's a rule that beasts cannot become gods. I'm worried that the ocean might give birth to a second such abomination, so naturally, I have to suppress it with my destiny!" Tang San said righteously.

"Douluo Star is the most powerful of the 108 minor worlds under our God Realm. The most powerful part of the most powerful planet almost gave birth to the most powerful soul beast. Shouldn't this matter attract our attention?" Tang San added.

The God of Destruction felt something was off, but couldn't quite put his finger on it. Because it was the truth. If soul beasts were truly allowed to become gods, then the Dragon God War would likely repeat itself. And it was precisely because of that war that the entire Douluo God Realm shrank considerably.

Speaking of shrinking, Destruction slammed his fist on the table again: "Then what do you mean by constantly delaying the expansion of the divine realm and saying you want to hold an expanded meeting? Our divine realm needs development to return to its former glory. How can the divine realm develop with your stagnation?!"

The commotion inside started again. I guess this time some god is really in trouble. The priest stood by the gate, motionless and expressionless.

Ideally, the two god-kings would fight, and it would be even better if one of them fell. Anyway, it's none of his business; he just needs to keep his job in mind.

God-kings may change, but have you ever seen a gatekeeper god change?

He could actually hear a little bit of the argument going on inside; it was nothing more than the Destruction God King and the Asura God King arguing about whether or not to expand the God Realm.

He didn't quite understand why the God of Destruction had so many ideas, why he had to think about all sorts of random things and do all sorts of strange things. Wouldn't it be better to just be like him every day? Go to work on time, leave work on time, live a regular life, and get a bonus every month.

This chapter describes a story above the realm of gods, which can also be considered a small protective charm for Qian Renxue.

Furthermore, in the realm of gods, the actions of this priest are, in a sense, a microcosm of the behavior and practices of most people in the Douluo Continent during the Douluo II era.

The dreams of a mob depict a broken fairy tale.
