Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue

Chapter 734 The Leader of the New World

"Ugh—"

Qian Renxue suddenly dove out, appearing out of thin air from the sky above the Douluo plane.

"You're back." The little angel's wings fluttered gently as she used her divine sense to perceive the situation.

"It really is true. It's exactly a month since I went to space to test Guanyin's Tears." She then looked around. "It seems we're still on that new continent, not back on Douluo Continent. However, it's not on the mountain we left at the beginning."

She took a moment to adjust her breathing, and then discovered that Bibi Dong's cocoon in her spiritual sea was still quiet, seemingly without any major movement, as if she hadn't had any intense reaction just now.

But did they really not help her? She had some doubts.

I guess, probably, it helped me after all.

"I need to find the little devil quickly, she'll be so happy." The little angel thought to himself, "When I left Douluo Star, I sent her a message telling her to go out and have some fun for a while. I never expected that this trip would be anything but fun, it almost cost me my life."

The connection between the little angel and the little devil was restored when she arrived in the Douluo Continent. At that time, the little devil was above a vast ocean.

That sea area is located in the very center of Douluo Star, and the sunlight is also the strongest. After the little devil mastered the power of the Taiyin True Water, he also developed a certain affinity for the water element, so he chose to establish a connection with the little angel there.

The little devil's guidance also played a significant role in the little angel's escape from the collapsing time portal.

Perhaps it was the little devil's guidance from the outside, and Bibi Dong's internal push and help, that allowed the little angel to escape successfully.

"Sigh, sealing my cultivation is quite a unique experience." The little angel sensed her condition. "I fought that God of Destruction, which completely depleted my soul power. In fact, it was a waste of my originally ordinary soul power. Then, the immortal spiritual energy and that... divine-level grass nourished my meridians again, completely creating a divine body..."

She was both amused and exasperated; this unexpected blessing in disguise came rather suddenly.

"Never mind, it's a good thing anyway."

She was in a pretty good mood, because not only that, she had found Bibi Dong's fragments of consciousness!

"I'll recover here for a bit and wait for the little devil. Being sealed in cultivation doesn't mean I can't cultivate anymore. I still need to stabilize the current situation." She thought to herself as she closed her eyes and began to absorb the sunlight and the energy around her.

After all, I had just exhausted my strength and my body was still a bit weak.

"Buzz—"

Shortly after Qian Renxue entered a meditative state, a figure appeared in front of her. It was not the little devil, but a tall woman.

The newcomer wore a navy blue off-shoulder, waist-cinching long dress, revealing her snow-white skin and perfect figure. Gems sparkled beneath her chest, and below the gems, an inverted fan-shaped brocade fluttered in the wind, with deep red down connecting and sloping down. Several phoenix tail pendants hung from the cuffs of her long robe and from beneath the down.

Qian Renxue sensed someone appear before her. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at her: "You are...?"

"You should recognize me, or rather, you should have seen my portrait somewhere before," the newcomer said in a clear voice.

Qian Renxue recalled that the person who came was very similar to the image she had seen in the mural before, or rather, they were almost like they were made from the same mold, but there were still some differences. They should be a descendant of the same family.

"I remember now." Qian Renxue nodded. "Then, you must be the lord of this continent. I didn't expect to meet you at this time."

"Are you busy right now?" the lord asked. "Hmm? I'm fine." Qian Renxue's eyes flickered slightly; she sensed a hint of hostility in his words.

"It's good that you're alright, because you might be in a bit of trouble next." A powerful aura emanated from the lord, and the wind whistled, blowing her long black hair.

"Hmm?" Noticing the other person's unusual attitude, Qian Renxue frowned and looked at her with some doubt.

They had clearly helped the other side kill a bunch of invaders, so why would they be hostile? Even that Xi Ye Douluo praised them as a righteous army.

"What is your name?" Qian Renxue asked doubtfully. "Isn't it a bit much to start with this?"

"Jianyuan Continent, Weiyuan." The other party chuckled lightly before revealing his identity.

"Wei Yuan?" Qian Renxue exclaimed softly, "Your surname comes from the mythical bird Jingwei?"

She recalled the mural she had seen before. On this continent once lived a super soul beast called Jingwei, who had fought against Poseidon when he conquered the ocean tens of thousands of years ago. Later, this soul beast was reborn as a human and became the being depicted in the mural, performing something similar to the forging of a divine artifact, with a line of fanatical believers behind her.

"It seems you are indeed the bloodline our ancestors spoke of. On another distant continent, there once existed an organization called the Spirit Hall. The Angel God and the Sea God, who led it, became among the few Dao Prodigies of that era, and eventually ascended to heaven."

Qian Renxue looked at the woman before her, feeling slightly relieved. It seemed that the woman's family might indeed have had some conflict with the former sea god Poseidon; after all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Wei Yuan's cultivation level seems quite good; he should be at level ninety-seven.

"I see. I was planning to visit you sometime, but I didn't expect to meet you here now," Qian Renxue said. "Then let's chat for a bit."

"No need, let me finish what I have to say." Wei Yuan looked coldly at Qian Renxue. "I'm here to cause you trouble."

"Huh?" Qian Renxue was a little taken aback. "I helped you build the Origin Continent, and you, the descendant of Jingwei, fought against the Sea God's people and believers, and now you still want to cause me trouble? Don't you know that I was chasing after the Sea God's soul back then?"

"Because we, the Jianyuan Continent, do not welcome outsiders. I think you, as the successor of the angels, are also here to spread your teachings. It seems that you used a bunch of powerful soul-guided weapons to kill the enemy sea god, but in reality, you are just showing off to us." Wei Yuan stared intently at Qian Renxue. "Angels and sea gods are powerful beings from the same era, and they both want to collect more faith."

"Those sea god believers you wiped out were willing to slaughter several villages for their faith. Who knows how much destruction your weapons of mass destruction can cause?"

"Are you kidding me?" Qian Renxue was speechless.

"On the surface, you're hunting down the enemy, but in reality, you just want to use this opportunity to attack our side!"

"Where's the evidence?" Qian Renxue asked, fiddling with her fingers.

"You have a Contra player under your command who looks like she's only level 80-something, but her actual combat power is almost enough to overwhelm some titled players. She's hunting down those remaining remnants, but every time she's about to succeed, she deliberately lets them go. What is this if not showing off to us?"

Qian Renxue: "...Xiao Yuanyi."

It's almost time to return to Douluo Continent! After reuniting with the fragments of the Rakshasa God, Dong Ma will be back soon.
