Douluo Continent Villain Simulator: Persecuting Qian Renxue at the Start

Chapter 378-Awakening

As the powerful Asura God Power rippled across Tang San's body, everything within Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue's field of vision was completely stained with blood.

Tang San slowly raised the Asura Demon Sword, his gaze following the hilt to the blade, as scenes from the past flashed through his mind.

Xiao Wu's past sacrifice connected her to her own bloodline; she encountered her great-grandfather outside the Haotian Sect and obtained the Asura Demon Sword from him after completing the Asura God Trial; Xiao Wu merged with the Asura Demon Sword, becoming the vessel of the Asura God's power...

Tang San suddenly realized that he was entitled to all of this.

Whether it was setbacks or opportunities in the past, they all pushed him step by step to his current level—truly inheriting the power of the two gods, achieving a perfect fusion without any side effects. On this continent, no one can rival him.

"..."

Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue exchanged a glance, their expressions extremely solemn.

Bibi Dong, in particular, although she did not become tainted with too much evil power and malice after inheriting the position of Rakshasa God, still suffered extremely strong suppression when facing her natural enemy, the Asura God.

Not to mention that what she was facing at this moment was not simply a Shura God.

"Stop standing there, let's go!"

Qian Renxue let out a low shout, pointing her divine sword at the sky. Her surging divine power erupted instantly, transforming into a golden-red streak of light that crashed head-on into Tang San.

Bibi Dong also realized what was happening and quickly followed.

Facing the two figures, one gold and one purple, that were attacking him, Tang San merely smiled contemptuously. His dark red greatsword slashed through the air as he uttered, "Asura, Judgment."

The next moment, several red lights bloomed like flowers, and Bibi Dong was immediately enveloped in a blood-red lightning. Her Rakshasa power was instantly shattered and torn apart, and her purple-green evil energy melted away like ice and snow.

Subsequently, the raging Asura divine power began to directly erode her body through the Rakshasa Demon Armor.

"Bibi Dong!"

Seeing Bibi Dong struggling painfully within the power of the Asura God, Qian Renxue suddenly felt a pang of heartache.

The golden-red light reignited, and Qian Renxue's wings instantly unfurled, transforming into six dazzling golden-red rays that illuminated the blood-red sky.

She was burning her angelic power at all costs.

At the same time, the sea of consciousness was turbulent, and the angel's divine position was shaken.

However, when she resolved to shatter her divine position and launch her strongest attack, she felt a resistance that made it difficult for her to unleash the full potential of her divine position in a short period of time, as if the angelic divine position was not under her control.

"I see……"

Deep within his soul, Qian Daoliu also sensed everything that was happening outside and immediately understood Qian Renxue's determination at this moment.

He subconsciously glanced at the slightly trembling, blazing white light in his golden sea of consciousness.

"Fine, Su Cheng, I hope you're not lying to me."

Qian Daoliu sighed inwardly, and then directly ignited his soul as the true bearer of the divine position.

With his movement, the angelic divine position shattered in an instant.

Qian Renxue radiated dazzling golden light from head to toe. Her angelic divine power, pushed to its limit, forcefully shook off the Asura divine power on her body, propelling her body to launch another attack.

A mouthful of blood spurted from Qian Renxue's mouth, and the divine mark on her forehead shattered, turning into golden light that merged into the angelic holy sword in her hand and began to burn.

The fuel in the holy sword is her own immense divine life force.

The angelic holy sword shone brightly, and the enormous amount of blazing energy unleashed terrifying power.

Faced with such an attack, Tang San, who had just used the Asura God Technique in his Asura God position, could only switch to Sea God Mode to defend himself, and blue light surged around his body.

But amidst the scorching heat of the flames, his golden trident and his divine armor as a sea god began to melt within moments.

Unfortunately, the one Qian Renxue defeated with her desperate sword strike, despite risking the destruction of her divine position, was only the Sea God.

After taking the blow, Tang San's body shifted between blue and red light, transforming back into his terrifying blood-red armor, instantly blasting the burning angel away. With a flick of his wrist, the demonic sword transformed into a dazzling rainbow, heading straight for that beautiful figure.

Apart from remaining conscious, Qian Renxue, having exhausted her divine power, had no strength left to resist and could only watch helplessly as the crimson pillar of light magnified before her eyes.

Gazing at the crimson sword light, there was no fear in her eyes, only a faint regret.

She then gently closed her eyes.

Anyway... I hope you can survive, Bibi Dong.

Then continue on with that guy and pursue the happiness you deserve.

At least, I don't owe you anything anymore.

I'll use the life you gave me to buy you a chance to escape...

Ha, with your intelligence, you wouldn't be stupid enough to die here with me...

"..."

However, after a long time, she did not feel the pain of being pierced through her body, nor was she shrouded in the shadow of death.

She suddenly opened her eyes again.

The red demonic sword was pointed directly at him, yet he was not pierced by it.

In front of her, another person blocked the fatal sword strike for her.

Blinding red lightning covered the man's body, and countless cracks spread across the surface of his hard divine armor before turning him into dust.

Turning around, Bibi Dong, who had lost her divine armor, was now wearing a plain white dress and facing Qian Renxue.

On her pale yet still beautiful face, a gentle and pure smile appeared—a smile she had never shown to her before.

It wasn't like the gaze between long-time relatives; it was more like the look of a woman who had just become a mother, seeing her own flesh and blood enter the world for the first time, her eyes filled with wonder, joy, and deep expectation...

But this look came thirty years too late.

In that instant, time seemed to rewind, and all those regrets and resentments never even existed...

A soft light emanated from Bibi Dong's trembling palm, supporting the two bodies as they slowly fell towards the ground in front of Jialing Pass.

"you……"

Qian Renxue's vision blurred for a moment, and her lips trembled slightly.

Before I knew it, tears had filled my eyes and slid down my cheeks.

It seems that some extremely strong barrier deep in my heart has shattered.

Those longings for family and motherly love that she had thought didn't exist, those longings she had stubbornly tried to deny for decades, all turned into waves and tsunamis at this moment, sweeping over and washing over every corner of her body.

It was bittersweet yet warm.

It turns out that those who pretended to be strong and indifferent were just being self-righteous and showing off.

When the outer layer of ice breaks, the deepest emotions remain burning hot.

It neither evaporated with the passage of time, nor deteriorated due to the erosion of loneliness...

Yes.

She never lost those feelings.

No one is without a mother's love.

Even though she didn't have a real childhood, even though she has grown up, at this moment, she is still that child.

From the initial longing to the final disappointment in my childhood, the purest place in my heart was never tarnished.

Perhaps in the dead of night, you may have dreamt of the two of them living peacefully together.

However, Qian Renxue would never admit this.

Bibi Dong is not worthy of being a mother; she is not her own mother at all.

She is a powerful Soul Master, a rare genius, and an outstanding Pope of the Spirit Hall...

She can be anyone.

But it wasn't his own mother.

The same might be true for Bibi Dong.

She was a useful tool, a weapon of the Spirit Hall, a vanguard that could help the Spirit Empire expand its territory, and a bloodline of the Thousand Families that could help her maintain her rule, but she could not be her daughter.

In the past, Qian Renxue had always told herself this.

but……

"Why...why did you do this..."

She questioned him in a trembling voice.

Everything was blurry before my eyes, and I could no longer see Bibi Dong's expression.

When Bibi Dong landed on the ground with Qian Renxue, the last piece of the Rakshasa Divine Armor had already turned into smoke and disappeared.

Neither of them noticed that Tang San hadn't pursued them; he seemed to be bound in place by some force, unable to immediately deliver the finishing blow.

Bibi Dong laboriously raised her arm and gently wiped away the tears on Qian Renxue's face, whispering, "Xiaoxue, I'm sorry."

"Don't speak yet." Qian Renxue hurriedly wiped away the tears in her eyes and quickly interrupted her.

At the same time, he held her hand tightly, wanting to infuse her with soul power to suppress the erosion of the Asura God's power.

However, Qian Renxue, who had just shattered her divine position and used her last attack in a desperate attempt, was also completely exhausted and had no strength left.

"If I don't say it now, I probably won't have the chance later."

Bibi Dong used her backhand to clench her fist, stopping her futile movement.

Although it was unclear why Tang San hadn't immediately given chase—perhaps he felt victory was assured—there was no time to worry about the Asura God at the moment; it was best to finish what needed to be said as quickly as possible.

The remaining Asura divine power has begun to attack vital points.

She could feel her life force dissipating; after all, being pierced head-on by the Asura Demon Sword meant certain death.

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Qian Renxue couldn't help but shout angrily, tears welling up in her eyes again. "What do you mean there's no chance? Are you still the Bibi Dong I know?! And... and there's Su Cheng, don't you want to see him again?!"

"Yes...of course I want to...but it's such a pity, it's so rare to find someone..." Bibi Dong suddenly paused, then looked at Qian Renxue and smiled, "Xiaoxue, you actually like him too, don't you?"

"..." Qian Renxue was stunned upon hearing this, opened her mouth but did not know what to say.

"Surprised?" Bibi Dong chuckled weakly.

"Although I don't know what's going on between you two, you are still my daughter... Although you may not want to acknowledge me as your mother... I can definitely sense some of your thoughts. Heh, I have to apologize to you again. I'm sorry, even knowing your feelings, I don't want to give him up... It's selfish, isn't it? Sigh, I've never been a good mother."

"No, it's me who's truly selfish to have that kind of thought."

"Xiaoxue, let me finish what I have to say," Bibi Dong said reproachfully, her face still bearing a gentle smile, as if the two of them were not on a battlefield, and she was not seriously injured and dying; this was just an ordinary family conversation.

Although she had never shown such tenderness to her daughter before.

"Your father died at my hands. Back then, in order to keep me firmly within the Spirit Hall and to ensure the Qian family had an outstanding successor, he raped me, his disciple. Therefore, I want to kill him and take revenge."

"As a young person, I couldn't let go of these painful memories, so I always harbored resentment towards you."

Su Cheng told me that we have many similarities, both of us being endlessly tormented by pain and loneliness. He is probably right; over the past few decades, I have transferred too much of my pain onto you.

"I was wrong. You are innocent. All I can do for you is this one sword. I don't even ask for your forgiveness; consider it a small token of my remorse..."

"..." Qian Renxue's lips trembled, wanting to say something, but her voice was stuck in her throat and she could not get it out.

After all, that title hasn't been used for many years.

Bibi Dong didn't mind and continued, "Xiaoxue, I know you're proud, but please pretend to admit defeat. Then go back to Wuhun City to find Su Cheng; he still has the potential to go even further. I was too careless. I thought that my daughter and I, as two gods, could easily win, but I didn't expect Tang San to be able to control two godhoods at the same time. However, Su Cheng can defeat him."

As she said this, a confident gleam shone in her eyes.

Then she sighed again, and the smile on her face finally faded, replaced by a faint bitterness.

"It's such a pity that I couldn't see him one last time. Even knowing my past, even knowing what kind of person I am, he never said a word. From that moment on, I knew how narrow-minded I was. I was not good enough for him; you are all much better than me."

"No, we can escape. I can take you with me. I will definitely take you back to the Spirit Hall..."

"what?"

At this moment, Bibi Dong suddenly let out a soft moan.

A strange energy began to emerge from somewhere within my body.

The energy wasn't intense, but it seemed inexhaustible, slowly and steadily cleansing the remaining Asura divine power within her body while continuously repairing it, restoring some rosiness to her pale complexion.

A familiar aura appeared in the sky above Jialing Pass.

Bibi Dong looked up and saw a figure blocking the way for the Asura God Tang San.

Qian Renxue frowned and looked up, seeing Su Cheng's figure.

Her face showed neither joy nor worry or fear; instead, her eyes were somewhat blank.

In her eyes, brilliant gold and silver-gray light flickered alternately, and some blurry images flashed before her eyes.

At this moment, the surrounding scene seemed somewhat unreal.

Then, a flood of memory fragments began to pour into my mind, and a powerful force surged forth from the depths of my soul.

Despite having lost her angelic status, her power continues to rise endlessly.

But that was not angelic power.

It is far more powerful than the power of angels and gods.

She suddenly had a delusion that what was fake was not the surrounding scene and environment.

Apart from a handful of people, the whole world is so fake.
