As the sun set, their shadows stretched long and intertwined, inseparable.
Perhaps, Ling Feng will also receive the inheritance of a god in the future; this is almost inevitable.
As long as the gods in the divine realm don't act erratically, it's basically a done deal; even the God-King will be moved.
But right now, there's no rush.
He still has a lot to do.
Chapter 139 The Angel God's First Test
In the depths of the Lake of Life, there is no light.
Gu Yuena lay on the stone platform in the middle of the lake, her long silver hair flowing in the water like seaweed, entwining her body.
Her eyes were closed, and her breathing was steady, as if she were asleep.
But she was fully conscious, as clear-headed as a drawn sword, sharp and calm.
She was thinking of Qian Renxue.
That little girl is a level 61 Soul Emperor, possessing an eight-winged angel martial soul, and is the inheritor of the Angel God.
Her foundation was very solid, and her mindset was also very stable, but what Gu Yuena really cared about was not her cultivation level, her talent, or her martial spirit.
It was her eyes.
There was light in those golden eyes.
Gu Yuena had seen that kind of light before.
In Qian Yuhan's eyes, in the Dragon God's eyes, in the eyes of those souls who refused to submit to fate.
That is the light that refuses to accept fate.
Gu Yuena opened her eyes and looked at the lake above her.
Moonlight streamed through the lake, casting dappled shadows on its surface.
As she looked at the light and shadow, Qian Yuhan's face appeared in her mind.
Long silver hair, golden eyes, an exquisite face, a divine crown and feathered robe, a twelve-winged angel.
They had only met once, at the edge of the divine realm, a fleeting glance, without exchanging a word.
But Gu Yuena remembered her, remembered her eyes, remembered the light in her eyes.
It was a light that refused to be inferior to others, a light that wanted to break the rules, a light that would rather die than submit.
Later, Qian Yuhan perished, dying on the path to breaking through to the God King realm.
Everyone said she failed in her breakthrough and her soul was scattered.
But Gu Yuena knew that wasn't the case.
It was the Asura God who killed her.
Gu Yuena closed her eyes, a complex emotion welling up inside her.
Does she hate the God of Asura?
hatred.
But she hated herself even more.
He regretted not intervening back then, regretted not saving Qian Yuhan, and regretted only being able to watch helplessly as a soul unwilling to submit to fate was crushed by destiny.
But now, Qian Yuhan's successor has appeared.
That little girl, that little girl with the same eyes as her, will she repeat Qian Yuhan's mistakes?
Gu Yuena didn't know.
But she knew that there was someone with that little girl.
Qian Gu Lingfeng, the successor of the Dark Holy Dragon, the one chosen by Chi Yan and Han Shuang, the one Gu Yue Na gambled her future on.
He will stand beside her and walk with her.
This is something Qian Yuhan doesn't have.
Perhaps, this is the variable.
Gu Yuena tapped her fingers lightly on the stone platform, making a soft, tinkling sound.
She was thinking of Ling Feng, that twelve-year-old boy.
Level 75 Soul Saint, 380,000-year-old seventh soul ring, Dark Dragon King true form, Devouring Power.
His foundation is more solid than Qian Renxue's, his temperament is more composed than Qian Renxue's, and his talent is greater than Qian Renxue's.
But what Gu Yuena really cared about wasn't these things.
It was his eyes.
There was light in those dark eyes.
That light was brighter, deeper, and more profound than Qian Renxue's.
That is the light that refuses to be inferior to others, the light that wants to break the rules, the light that would rather die than submit.
Like Qian Yuhan, but brighter.
"interesting."
Gu Yuena spoke softly, her voice echoing in the water like a sigh.
An angelic successor who refuses to accept his fate, and a dark dragon descendant who refuses to accept his fate—two souls who refuse to accept their fate—walk on the same path.
Where will they go?
Will they reach the realm of gods?
Will he walk up to the God of Asura?
Will we reach the place where the Dragon God fell?
Gu Yuena didn't know.
But she knew they would go far.
She recalled what Di Tian had said—"My lord, the Holy Son and the Holy Daughter have a very close relationship."
them……"
She didn't let Di Tian finish speaking.
She doesn't need to listen.
She can see.
When that little girl broke through to the next level, Ling Feng stayed by her side, never leaving her side.
When that little girl absorbed the soul ring, Ling Feng protected her, his spiritual power covering an area of a hundred feet.
When that little girl received the Angel God's inheritance, Ling Feng stood beside her, blinded by the golden beam of light, but he did not take a step back.
There was something between them that was hard to explain.
It's not love, not friendship, not family affection.
It's something deeper than all of these.
It's a bond.
Gu Yuena had no idea where that bond would lead them.
But she knew that those who have ties to their lives can go further than those who don't.
Qian Yuhan had no ties, so she perished.
The Dragon God had no bonds, so he perished.
Gu Yuena had no ties, so she could only slumber at the bottom of the Lake of Life, waiting for a future that might never come.
But Ling Feng and Qian Renxue have a bond.
They will not perish.
Gu Yuena raised her hand and looked at it.
That hand was as white as jade, slender as a scallion, and the fingertips gleamed with a faint silver light.
She clenched her fist, then relaxed it.
She thought of Qian Yuhan, the Dragon God, and those souls who refused to submit to fate.
They were all dead, but she was still alive.
She lives because she is waiting.
Waiting for a variable.
Waiting for someone who can break the rules.
Waiting for someone who can kill the Asura God.
Perhaps, that person is in Wuhun City.
Perhaps, that person is Qian Gu Ling Feng.
Perhaps, that person is Qian Renxue.
Perhaps, the two of them together are the variable.
Gu Yuena closed her eyes and fell asleep again.
Her consciousness sank into the depths of her mind, into millennia of solitude.
But she was no longer as desperate as before.
Because she saw a glimmer of light in the darkness; it was far away and weak, but it was real.
That is the light of the angels.
She smiled.
