Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue

Chapter 358 Ma Xiaotao's Choice

Qian Renxue and Ye Xishui took Xiao Wu to the valley where the Blue Silver Emperor was imprisoned and temporarily settled her there.

Blue Silver Emperor's current situation is relatively good. He cannot muster any thoughts of resistance at the moment, because the curse within his body could be detonated at any time, and his body, along with the seed, would be completely annihilated, with no chance of rebirth.

"Lanlan." Qian Renxue squatted down and patted the Blue Silver Emperor, whose body was half buried in the soil.

"What—what are you going to do?" Blue Silver Emperor asked tremblingly.

"How are your current vitality and cultivation level?"

Blue Silver Emperor whispered, "In about a thousand years, a great calamity will be upon us. Although our life force is being depleted, it hasn't reached our very core."

Another thousand years is enough, that's fine.

Qian Renxue nodded and patted him on the shoulder: "You recognize this rabbit, right? It should be the ten-thousand-year-old rabbit that absorbed the most of your life force."

Blue Silver Emperor slightly focused his mind, looking at Xiao Wu whose legs had been cut off.

"I'm handing her over to you. You keep a close eye on her and make sure she doesn't die." Qian Renxue reached out and smashed a deep pit in the open ground next to Lan Yinhuang.

"..." Qian Renxue looked at the remaining half of Xiao Wu's body, then buried her in it as well. Afterwards, she injected a large amount of Soul Extinction Powder into it, so that she could not muster any strength or soul power in the back.

"You want me to watch over her?" Blue Silver Emperor asked, puzzled.

"Even servants are ranked, and you're clearly a higher-ranking one." Qian Renxue ruffled Lan Yinhuang's hair. "If you do a good job, maybe I can find a way to help you survive the 200,000-year tribulation."

Blue Silver Emperor was startled.

"Think about it, is your life now any different from before?" Qian Renxue coaxed patiently. "You used to live in a valley, and it's the same now. Before, you had to use your cultivation and life force to nourish Blue Silver Valley, and now you're nourishing Jingyang Mountain Range."

"It seems...it really is true?" Blue Silver Emperor was stunned. "Even after leaving Blue Silver Valley, the effects of the heavenly lightning on me have become less."

"That's more like it. Your life hasn't changed. I've even found you some things to do, and you'll get paid accordingly after you finish them," Qian Renxue said. "It's true that a curse was placed inside you, but isn't that normal?"

Lan Yinhuang felt that Qian Renxue was wrong, but at the same time, he also felt that she was right.

"I heard from the people in this city that you are very kind to them, but I always feel that something is wrong, a feeling I can't quite put my finger on." Blue Silver Emperor stretched out a few vines, cleared the soil around Xiao Wu, and buried her as well.

"If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it. In short, I'm a very trustworthy person, and I always keep my word." Qian Renxue watched Lan Yinhuang's actions expressionlessly. "The only time I would do something like 'discarding a donkey after it has served its purpose' is when the donkey disobeys first and tries to overturn the millstone."

"Alright." Blue Silver Emperor nodded. "So, what exactly do I need to do?"

"I cut off this damn rabbit's leg, and her strength has plummeted. I don't want her to die so quickly. What you need to do is use your abilities to prolong her life, but don't let her fully recover."

Qian Renxue bent down and patted Xiao Wu's cheek. She had violently injected a lot of toxins into Xiao Wu's body, toxins that would render her, like Xuanzi, unable to exert her full strength. At the same time, the slow, corrosive power would gradually erode her mind and spirit.

Even if Xiao Wu possesses divine consciousness, she cannot transcend the limitations of being a mortal; it merely serves as an aid and enhancement to her cultivation.

"Half-dead!" Blue Silver Emperor understood. "I know what to do. Give her life force while absorbing her essence and spirit! I'm good at this. I did it like this back in Blue Silver Valley."

Qian Renxue nodded, secretly set up a monitoring soul tool here, and then left.

She reached the edge of the valley, took a deep breath, and hurried back to the Holy Spirit Headquarters. Ye Xishui was already waiting for her there, and upon seeing her return, she pulled her directly into a small house.

Qian Renxue was shocked. What was the teacher going to do?

Ye Xishui pointed to a girl sitting in the small house. Qian Renxue looked over and saw that it was Ma Xiaotao.

"What's wrong with her?" Qian Renxue asked, frowning.

"She wants an abortion..." Ye Xishui's expression was strange.

"...?" Qian Renxue looked at Ma Xiaotao in confusion.

Ma Xiaotao knew Qian Renxue; she had fought with this girl before and subtly told her to be careful and not to kill anyone.

At this moment, Ma Xiaotao's eyes were clearly not a normal expression; they were a dark red, almost sickly.

"Are you the Holy Maiden of the Holy Spirit Cult?" Ma Xiaotao asked with difficulty.

"It's me. Why did you suddenly want to do something like this?" Qian Renxue couldn't help but say. "That's your child."

"..." A shadow fell over Ma Xiaotao's eyes. "He is no longer my child."

"..." Qian Renxue paused for a moment, Ma Xiaotao was right.

"Holy Maiden, I know what you want to say." Ma Xiaotao turned her head away. "Although this child was not my intention, I still felt that the child was innocent. In any case, I am the mother of this life, and the grudges and entanglements between me and Hai Douluo should not be passed on to the next generation."

"I originally thought that after this little life was born, I would tell him that I was his mother and would also be his father, and that I would raise him slowly." Ma Xiaotao took a deep breath. "But... the doctor who examined me recently told me that the little life inside me... may no longer be the original soul..."

"When I heard that, I didn't believe it at all. But the Supreme Master told me the whole story." Ma Xiaotao covered her face. "As the mother of this child, I also sensed something unusual, such as the fluctuations in the child's body..."

At this time, the child had not yet been born, so it was normal for Ma Xiaotao, as the mother, to sense that something was wrong.

At this moment, a strange idea popped into Qian Renxue's mind.

If Ma Hongjun is really inside Ma Xiaotao's belly, is it possible that he will develop two consciousnesses just like her?

She quickly dismissed the idea, because Ma Xiaotao was definitely not comparable to Bibi Dong.

"Are you planning to abort him?" Qian Renxue asked expressionlessly.

"I'm not going to let it go, I'm going to kill this new soul!" Ma Xiaotao finally couldn't hold back anymore and cried out loud.

"Everything I had was destroyed by that self-proclaimed righteous sea god, the academy he left behind, and my foolish ancestor! Destroyed!"

Qian Renxue didn't feel too sorry for her, she just nodded slightly.

"This is your choice. Think it over. We can help you."
