Chapter 222

"You should become a god as soon as possible, understand? What's wrong with becoming a god early?"

"After Xiaoyu returns, the three of us will have a chat, and the next day you will listen to Grandfather and immediately start the Angel's ninth assessment."

"Grandfather!"

Qian Renxue wanted to say more, but at this moment, Lin Yu's voice already sounded in their ears: "Teacher! There is indeed no need to be so anxious; let's wait a few months for Xue'er to become a god."

"Xiaoyu!"

"Lin Yu!"

Joy appeared on both of their faces, and they came to Lin Yu's side for the first time.

Soon, Qian Daoliu became serious again: "Xiaoyu, how come even you say so? Isn't it better for Xiaue to become a god as soon as possible?"

"Teacher, let's wait a few months first."

"This, what are you two trying to do? What exactly are you waiting for?" Qian Daoliu was puzzled about what Lin Yu and Qian Renxue were thinking.

But since they both said so, waiting a few months was fine; it wouldn't have much impact: "Forget it, follow your wishes."

The three gathered together, reminiscing, chatting, and conversing.

Looking at Lin Yu and Qian Renxue, who had been flirting and intimate for many years without any change, Qian Daoliu felt quite emotional, and a sense of loneliness and sadness was hidden in his eyes.

He sighed in his heart: "How I wish I could see these two children become gods with my own eyes."

"How I wish I could watch them hold a wedding and witness them becoming husband and wife."

"Unfortunately, I won't be able to see it."

"If only I could, I really want to live and take a good look at Xiaoyu, Xiaue, and the future of the Spirit Hall Empire..."

His granddaughter Qian Renxue could become the Angel God, and his disciple Lin Yu could become the god of the seven elements; having cultivated two gods in his life, Qian Daoliu's life could be considered complete, and he could die without regrets and be proud of himself.

But the only thing that made him feel very regretful was that he couldn't watch his granddaughter and disciple become gods, and couldn't watch them get married and have children.

Qian Daoliu withdrew his thoughts and said to Qian Renxue: "Xiaue, you go out first; there are some things Grandfather wants to talk to Xiaoyu about alone."

Qian Renxue pretended to be unhappy: "Grandfather, what else is there that I can't hear~"

"Alright, go out first." Qian Daoliu said dotingly.

"Alright, I know."

Qian Renxue slowly got up, moving her steps and figure as she left the room.

"Xiaoyu."

"Teacher." Lin Yu looked at him.

Qian Daoliu said: "Xiaoyu, if one day Teacher is no longer in this world, you must take good care of Xiaue for me; Teacher hopes that you can walk together until the end and never let her down."

"And now you have both grown to have strength even greater than Teacher's; from now on, you don't need me to escort you anymore; you have to walk your own path."

"Teacher also believes in you, that you can definitely lead the Spirit Hall Empire to unify the continent, eliminate all obstacles, and stabilize the foundation."

"Xiaoyu..."

Qian Daoliu said, giving Lin Yu various instructions, just like he was arranging his affairs and last words.

Lin Yu smiled warmly, and facing Qian Daoliu's various instructions, he also gave an incomparably serious and solemn response: "Please rest assured, Teacher; your disciple will definitely do everything you said."

He slowly grasped the back of Qian Daoliu's palm, still smiling: "We don't need you to escort us on our path in the future, but our days in the future cannot be without you, Teacher."

"What do you mean by not being in this world in the future? You, you will definitely have eternal life like us in the future."

"We will take you to the God Realm together."

This sentence suddenly stung Qian Daoliu; how he hoped it could be as Lin Yu said, but he could only smile stiffly and respond: "Hehe, alright, Xiaoyu, accompany Teacher for a walk and have a heart-to-heart talk."

"Good."

The master and disciple got up and walked together in the Pope Palace, talking heart-to-heart.

Until evening, the two separated.

Having had a good reunion with Lin Yu, Qian Daoliu was satisfied and was just waiting for Qian Renxue to sacrifice herself after the ninth assessment.

After talking heart-to-heart with Qian Daoliu, Lin Yu entered a state of seclusion, adjusting himself to the best state, preparing to open the inheritance gate for Qian Daoliu.

Time flew by, three months later.

Lin Yu made all preparations and informed Qian Renxue that the time had come; the three gathered outside the inheritance place of the Angel God.

"Xiaoyu, you wait here."

"Okay, Teacher."

Qian Daoliu didn't take Lin Yu in, because he was going to sacrifice himself in a moment, and he was worried that Lin Yu would stop him, leading to the failure of opening the inheritance gate.

Lin Yu also didn't tell Qian Daoliu in advance that he would make a move in a moment, worried that Qian Daoliu would think for him and would rather sacrifice himself than let Lin Yu make a move, thus paying some serious price.

Therefore, Lin Yu didn't insist on following him in, waiting outside for the time to be ripe before immediately breaking in to take over.

Qian Daoliu looked back every few steps, his eyes hiding reluctance, and took Qian Renxue into the inheritance place.

"Start, Xiaue."

"Hmm!" Qian Renxue nodded, standing in the center without knowing anything.

"Great Angel God! I will open the inheritance gate for your successor and complete my mission!"

"Please lend your divine power to me!!"

Qian Daoliu's voice echoed throughout the inheritance place; he slowly spread his hands, and at this moment, the entire hall flashed with brilliant golden light, and countless divine power and faith power of the Angel God began to gather.

"Inheritance gate! Open!!"

Qian Daoliu released the divine power and faith power, and a gate of inheritance appeared in the sky, but it didn't open.

"Xiaue, as the High Priest and Great Elder, my true mission is this moment: to sacrifice my life for the successor of the Angel God and open the inheritance gate!"

"Grandfather is leaving; from now on, Grandfather won't be able to accompany you and Xiaoyu anymore."

Qian Daoliu's face still had a kind smile, but his heart couldn't help but feel sad; however, he didn't want to show his sadness on his face, so he pretended to be someone who could die without regrets.

But how could he really die without regrets?

"No! Grandfather! Don't!!" Only now did Qian Renxue understand that Qian Daoliu had to sacrifice himself to achieve the Angel God status.

"Xiaue, don't be sad; go and welcome your moment of becoming a god."

Just as Qian Daoliu intended to sacrifice himself to open the inheritance gate, a terrifying force instantly shrouded his body, making him unable to move or sacrifice himself.

"Xiaoyu?"

Qian Daoliu also suddenly discovered that Lin Yu had already arrived behind him at some point.

"Xiaoyu! What are you doing!" Qian Daoliu said anxiously.

"Teacher, didn't I say? You will have eternal life like us; didn't I say we would take you to the God Realm together? How could I watch you die before my eyes?"
