Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue

"Entering the realm of gods ahead of schedule?"

Qian Renxue couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "It's so comfortable to have someone up here."

"Your aptitude is sufficient, and your combat strength is not a problem at all, is it? Moreover, since you have already comprehended chaos, and even reincarnation... the God Realm needs talents like you." The God King of Destruction said, "I have always advocated expanding the God Realm to accommodate more gods."

"The realm of gods is currently embroiled in strife and turmoil. A god-king has departed, leaving a vacancy on the original divine council. Logically, this position should be temporarily filled by the most outstanding among the first-level gods. But..."

The God of Destruction stopped short of causing serious harm.

Qian Renxue understood. This God of Destruction had probably learned his lesson from his struggle with Tang San, and had learned to form factions. So he wanted to use such tempting conditions to win her over, to win over this Supreme God King who had unlimited potential in the future.

"That's against the rules," Qian Renxue said calmly.

"Rules are rigid, but gods are flexible. I don't deny that I've considered trying to win you over, but ultimately it depends on your decision," the God of Destruction said calmly.

"..." Qian Renxue paused for a moment.

"Let's proceed according to the normal procedure. To be honest, I really didn't expect you to summon me to the God Realm this time, and I wasn't prepared at all. I still have things to take care of on Douluo Star. Besides, one day in the God Realm is equivalent to one year in the mortal world, so at most I'll be delayed by ten days or so, maybe even just a few days, before I can meet you and His Majesty the God of Life again."

Qian Renxue thought for a moment, then said solemnly.

"My friends are still in the Douluo Continent. They also need time to grow. I have to go and be with them," Qian Renxue said.

"Now, a shortcut is right in front of you, perhaps only this once. After arriving in the God Realm, you can directly possess countless immortal spiritual energies, which will be a huge boost to your strength." The God King of Destruction said in a highly seductive tone, "You came into the universe and tried every means to bring some back, so you should understand how precious this thing is."

"Yes, but I met a lot of friends this time. Meeting them and growing together is a once-in-a-lifetime experience," Qian Renxue said softly.

"If you can guarantee that you will reach the level of a Supreme God-King in the future, then you will have the authority to bring a group of followers to the God Realm," said the God-King of Destruction. "You should understand this."

"Hmm, but the people around me are also making progress. They can use their strength to prove to everyone the possibility of becoming gods. Since you want to expand the God Realm, if they also successfully attain enlightenment, wouldn't that also contribute to your ideals..." Qian Renxue thought for a moment, "...give up."

"GG?" The God of Destruction raised an eyebrow.

"Publicity," Qian Renxue rephrased.

"Hmm, not bad, very good." The God of Destruction nodded in satisfaction.

"So, what you just said was just a test?" Qian Renxue asked. "Both. If you agree, I'll naturally welcome it. If you don't agree, I'll probably be a little disappointed, but your choice is reasonable. Moreover, your last statement, that it's not just you who's improving, but your friends around you are also working hard in their own ways, touched me even more."

"The divine realm needs development, but it shouldn't be just one god leading the way. Those who are ahead should lead the way and keep striving, so that the entire divine realm can advance together to a higher level. That's how it should be." The God of Destruction nodded. "Otherwise, the so-called divine realm, or even the divine realm committee, will become empty talk, a stage for the sole beneficiary to perform a one-man show."

"The Douluo Continent may face a crisis in the future, and I am also involved in this crisis. This is one of the reasons why I don't want to come to the God Realm immediately," Qian Renxue said.

"I allowed the Spirit Hall to stand tall on the continent again, so I must take responsibility for it, mustn't I?" Qian Renxue said softly. "The God Realm can protect the plane, but the plane itself is more important."

"The divine realm absorbs spiritual energy from the planes to survive, and then the divine realm continues to develop, giving back to the planes. This is the proper rhythm." Qian Renxue looked at the God of Destruction, "Your Majesty, please allow me to return to my homeland first. Let us work together in the divine realm and the mortal realm to advance the entire galaxy and prevent a top-heavy situation."

"Alright!" The God of Destruction nodded. "I can sense that there is a great obsession in your heart, but I can't quite put my finger on what it is. Perhaps it's an angelic instinct, perhaps it's the determination to resurrect your mother, or perhaps it's something else entirely."

Qian Renxue looked at him: "You want to know?"

"No, you don't need to explain it to me. You know this in your own heart." The God of Destruction nodded. "Many people forget why they set out in the first place when they go too far, but you have been able to keep your original intention."

"Because I often look back at the path I've traveled, I hide my emotions and obsessions, but hiding them doesn't mean forgetting. I still think of those people and events from the past; their existence motivates me, inspires me, and tells me that things aren't finished, my mission isn't over." Qian Renxue tapped her finger lightly. "Someone took everything I once had, and now he even wants to take away the friends I have now. Why shouldn't I fight him to the death?"

"You've been in the realm of gods for a bit too long, but I suggest you spend another quarter of an hour or so to fully heal the cracks in your body," said the Goddess of Life. "Afterward, Xiao Zi will adjust the time on your body so that you can return to a more suitable point in time."

Qian Renxue nodded gently, without refusing.

"However, this will also be a burden on your body, and I hope you can afford it. So think it through before making a decision."

"It's alright. I've been trapped in Tang San's spacetime maze before, and I even grasped some of the mysteries of spacetime there. This kind of experience is no problem for me," Qian Renxue said. "However, I have a question, which is..."

"Does the realm of gods truly forbid the killing of gods?"

Qian Renxue stared at the God King of Destruction and Life.

"Conflicts are common within the realm of gods. For example, the god of fire and the god of water, a married couple, often fight. Of course, there are also conflicts between other deities. At such times, enforcers are needed to mediate. Little Green and I are both enforcers," said the God King of Destruction. "However, the God Kings of Good and Evil are not."

Oh.

That means it might not apply outside the realm of gods. (End of Chapter)
