Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue.

Chapter 854 The front lines are in dire straits?

"Ouch—"

The attendants following behind Xu Jiujiu and her entourage were startled and muttered, "What's going on?"

"It's an angel statue," Xu Jiujiu said. "There's basically a statue of some kind, big or small, in every Spirit Hall across the continent, but apart from the annual selection of Spirit Hall members, it seems there's never been this kind of commotion at other times."

Qian Renxue understood this perfectly; it was the effect left behind after she released her mental power.

Once they entered Wuhun City, the group got busy, heading to various institutions.

"According to Xu Jiujiu and Xu Yun, they seem to be here to attend a secret meeting. In comparison, that so-called representative meeting is just a cover," the little angel said to the little devil.

"A secret meeting?" The little devil indicated that he did not understand. "What could possibly be on this planet that would warrant a secret meeting? They even mentioned in their previous reports that they were preparing to develop outer space exploration facilities in the Star Sea region, and that they were going to use something called a rocket ship to send people into outer space."

The phantom of the little angel scratched its head: "I don't understand either. The divine realm still exists, and that dimensional barrier is still there. We sneaked in... Logically speaking, humans shouldn't be able to break through that barrier."

"To be honest, I'm not too sure either. After we self-destructed and went into slumber, all we could sense about the outside world was the most basic flow of time. We don't know what exactly happened." The phantom of the little devil was also thinking.

Xu Jiujiu was resting with her eyes closed at this moment. If she knew that an angel and a demon had appeared above her head, and the two phantoms were arguing... she would probably be scared half to death.

"She's going to that meeting this afternoon. Judging from the list of invitees, besides some of the new generation of Super Douluo, there seem to be some of our old acquaintances as well," Little Angel said.

"Sigh, we just took a nap, and when we woke up, everything had changed." The little devil sighed. "But the good thing is, even though we weren't here, Douluo Star is still developing steadily. This hundred years of evolution is almost equivalent to the previous few thousand years, right?"

"Hmm..." The little angel nodded. "That's a good thing. However, I don't seem to sense Teacher's aura. Teacher broke through to the God level a hundred years ago, so he'll be fine. Moreover, I can sense that the lifespan of humans on Douluo Star has been greatly extended. Originally, Limit Douluo could live for about two to three hundred years, but now they should be able to live for at least five hundred years or more."

"The lifespan of other humans also increased."

"Do you think our teacher went to the realm of gods?" the little devil asked.

"I don't know. But we should find out this afternoon," the little angel said.

Before long, it was afternoon. After saying goodbye to Xu Yun, Xu Jiujiu, with a little angel and a little devil on her head, arrived at the main hall of the Spirit Hall—the Papal Hall.

After entering the Papal Palace, she proceeded to a conference center, where multiple checkpoints were set up along the way.

Not long after, the space next to the conference center suddenly shattered, and a tall, aloof woman emerged from the vortex.

"The Overlord of the Far North, the Snow Empress!" One of the young men attending the secret meeting looked at the woman who had appeared out of nowhere with a horrified expression.

The young man, Qian Renxue, looked somewhat familiar, but she couldn't quite place him; she just felt that he looked familiar.

"Click—"

A moment later, the space shattered again, and a man dressed in a bright yellow robe descended, his body surrounded by ripples.

"Kong Deming, the father of soul guidance." Kong Deming and Xue Di exchanged a glance, nodded slightly, and then went to the conference center.

Qian Renxue thought to herself, "You all made quite a show of entering. If I didn't know better, I would have thought there was some kind of martial arts tournament going on here."

However, she also noticed that the Papal Palace had been expanded. Now called a conference center, it was as big as a large arena, not at all like a secret place.

Xue Di and Kong Deming exchanged a glance, nodded slightly, and then took their seats.

Each participant had a soul-guided light screen in front of them, on which the speeches of each representative were displayed in real time.

"Boom—"

The space trembled once more, and a man clad in a black and gold battle robe appeared riding a raging dragon. He glanced at the angel portrait on the dome with endless admiration.

"Lord of the Northwest Region, Long Xiaoyao." The newcomer looked at the entire audience and then nodded slightly.

Long Xiaoyao has arrived, but why hasn't Ye Xishui arrived yet? And what about the poison that doesn't kill people?

Qian Renxue was filled with doubt.

No way, could he really have ascended to godhood and gone to enjoy bliss in the divine realm?

"It seems this secret meeting today is very important, but I wonder what they're going to talk about." The person sitting next to Xu Jiujiu muttered to himself, "They just sent out invitations to the congress, inviting us to Wuhun City, and then suddenly said there was a secret meeting... These are all the most powerful and terrifying demigods or above in the current Soul Master world. How could I possibly be worthy to sit in the same room as them... Is this a place I should be in?"

Others were equally astonished; all of them were "lords," the governors of the provinces that had been differentiated from each region.

Dragon Emperor Douluo, Ice and Snow Douluo, Silver Moon Douluo, Golden Body Douluo... Although they still use Douluo as a suffix, everyone knows that these people are all beings above demigod level without exception, and only the Spirit Hall can gather these beings who have surpassed the limits together.

Even a little over a hundred years ago, there were no more than one hand's worth of beings at level ninety-nine on the entire continent.

Following closely behind were representatives from the soul beast side, led by the Evil Emperor and Bi Ji, who had transformed into human form, with the auspicious beast Qiu'er also present.

"Are you all still alive?"

A soft voice appeared, and then Shen Yuanyi appeared at the end. The little follower who used to follow Qian Renxue was now quite imposing. She came to the seat where Qian Renxue had sat, bowed slightly, and stood still without sitting down.

"Acting Pope." Everyone else stood up and bowed slightly to Shen Yuanyi, or rather, to the chair.

"It wasn't easy to gather everyone here. Grandpa Long, Elder Kong, Sister Xue Di..." Shen Yuanyi looked at the newcomers, "and also the Evil Emperor and Senior Bi Ji."

"Hehe, Acting Pope, I, Brigitte, am not worthy of such a title." Brigitte smiled faintly, "You are already a True God powerhouse of level 110 or above, surpassing even my so-called ferocious beast."

So it was Shen Yuanyi who gathered this group of people?

The little angel raised an eyebrow. What was this brat up to?

Shen Yuanyi slowly began, "To make a long story short, I have summoned all the lords above the provincial level here to inform you of something—the situation on the front lines is becoming somewhat critical."

Is the situation at the front lines critical?

Qian Renxue's heart tightened. Now that she had destroyed the Abyss Plane, what war was left?

"I've transmitted the information to the soul-guided light screens in front of you all. You can take a look first," Shen Yuanyi said, pointing to something.
