Chapter 514: Dispute: Taking Her Away

The light cage was broken, and Qian Renxue's body went limp, collapsing toward Nan Feihuang.

Feihuang hurriedly caught her, pressing his palm against her back to channel soul power into her; her injuries were truly not light, most of them caused by self-harm.

Indeed, this Xue Jie was far crazier than the original Xue Jie.

Seeing these wounds, Nan Feihuang was somewhat angry, "Great Elder Qian Daoliu, is this how you treat your granddaughter? Watching her self-harm to this extent and still keeping her locked up, why didn't you treat her sooner?"

"Nan Feihuang, do you think I don't feel heartache? But I am also helpless; if she is not resealed or eliminated, Xue'er will never return." Qian Daoliu's expression was complex; watching his granddaughter's body suffer such harm, he naturally felt heartache.

Yet he could only endure it, because in his heart, only the Qian Renxue who inherited the sacred power of the Angel Clan was his granddaughter, and he would absolutely never acknowledge this black Xue, whose Angel Power had been transformed into Fallen Angel Power.

"Eliminate?" Feihuang was startled, "Are you crazy? Didn't you hear? This Xue Jie was not born later; the two personalities have shared one body since Xue Jie was born, just one primary and one secondary."

"This situation is clearly because the powers of the parents who gave birth to her are extremely contradictory. The original Xue Jie's power leaned toward your Angel Clan, while this Xue Jie simply leans more toward her mother's side. No matter which Xue Jie it is, they are both innocent, and she is your own granddaughter; you would actually lay a killing hand on your own granddaughter!"

Dark Qian Renxue opened her beautiful eyes; she had heard everything Feihuang said just now.

She leaned silently in Feihuang's arms, holding his waist tightly. She was so happy; although her grandfather did not want her and her mother did not acknowledge her, there was one person, always one person, willing to care for her.

"Nan Feihuang, do you intend to stand on the side of this dark personality? Xue'er has deep feelings for you; how can you justify this to her?" Qian Daoliu questioned.

What kind of granddaughter was this? How could a descendant of their Angel Clan possess such terrifying Fallen Angel Power?

Feihuang said firmly, "I am not standing on the side of either personality, but on the side of my Xue Jie. No matter which Xue Jie it is, I acknowledge them both. Qian Daoliu, let me take Xue Jie away first. I will find a way to awaken Xue Jie's original personality, but I will also do my utmost to protect this Xue Jie. They both have the right to survive!"

"You want to take Xiao Xue away?" Qian Daoliu hesitated; he knew that at this moment, perhaps only Nan Feihuang could save Qian Renxue.

If he were like himself, wanting only to eliminate this dark personality, he would not refuse.

But his current intention was to preserve both personalities, which truly made him unable to feel at ease.

"Besides handing her to me, do you have any other better method?" Nan Feihuang questioned, "Besides locking Xue Jie up and forcing her to resort to self-harm, what else can you do?"

"Your actions have wounded the soul of one of my Xue Jies and the flesh of my other Xue Jie; it is simply foolish beyond compare. Great Elder Qian Daoliu, I have always respected your character—you keep your word and possess a sense of justice—but I truly sneer at your temperament. The reason you could never beat that Tang Chen back then is because you were always so hesitant, inactive, and neither as decisive nor as firm as him."

Everyone in the Offering Hall remained silent for a time; since the founding of the Spirit Hall, this was the first time someone had dared to point at the Great Elder's nose and scold him.

Golden Crocodile Douluo was very angry, but a thought in his heart made him unable to speak a rebuttal.

To tell the truth, he also held some resentment toward Qian Daoliu; the Spirit Hall becoming like this over the years had everything to do with Qian Daoliu.

Back when Bibi Dong killed Qian Xunji, he had asked Qian Daoliu why he didn't kill Bibi Dong.

Admittedly, the Spirit Hall had wronged Bibi Dong, but had Bibi Dong been fair to the Spirit Hall? She killed Qian Xunji with her own hands, and the grudge was settled, but what about the Spirit Hall's years of grace in raising and teaching her? She had forgotten it completely. This woman only remembered grudges and not kindness; keeping her would only make her a ticking time bomb for the Spirit Hall.

Yet Qian Daoliu was always hesitant at the time, saying things like she was, after all, Qian Renxue's biological mother.

But what meaning did a biological mother have? All these years, besides bringing Qian Renxue pain, had she ever shown a shred of maternal love?

If Qian Daoliu had acted decisively back then as he had suggested, eliminating Bibi Dong first, and then temporarily returning to the position of Pope to stabilize the situation before Qian Renxue grew up, everything would be different today.

"Great Elder Qian Daoliu, I will not harm Xue Jie; you should understand this. Now that Xue Jie has become like this, her God Trial has also been interrupted. If she is not awakened, your Angel Clan's Godly Inheritance will be severed," Nan Feihuang continued.

To persuade Qian Daoliu, there was nothing better than using the Angel God.

If Qian Daoliu still did not agree even then, Nan Feihuang would have no choice but to disregard everything, take up his Fangtian Halberd, and fight his way out with Qian Renxue.

Qian Daoliu's heart was shaken; Nan Feihuang had touched upon his greatest weakness.

In his heart, nothing was more important than the Angel God inheritance. Indeed, the most urgent matter now was to awaken his granddaughter's original personality; he must not let any problems occur with the God Trial.

As for the future of this dark personality, he would no longer care; he would leave it to his granddaughter to decide for herself.

"Nan Feihuang, I will give you a chance and allow you to take Xiao Xue away, but there is a maximum of one year. Because Xiao Xue has already begun the Angel God Trial, the time limit for each of her trials is only one year. She is currently undergoing the Third Trial, and the content of this trial is to overcome her own inner demons. In other words, if you cannot make her pass the Third Trial within one year, her soul will be backlashed by the God Trial. Those who fail the God Trial have only one path: Death!" Qian Daoliu warned solemnly.

Nan Feihuang picked up Qian Renxue in a bridal carry, "You don't need to tell me that; no matter what, I will protect her."

Having said that, Feihuang took Qian Renxue, who had fallen asleep in his arms, and walked out of the Offering Hall. After asking a maid, he arrived at her room and gently placed her on the bed.

This white-haired, black-winged Qian Renxue possessed a charm completely different from the original Qian Renxue.

If the previous her was the type who was sacred and inviolable, leaving one unable to harbor any thoughts of profanity, the current her was simply a succubus.

Just lying there, she was full of temptation to others.

Fortunately, the current Feihuang could be considered firm in his resolve and was not so easily swayed by beauty.

Feihuang was not in a hurry to take her away from Wuhun City; for one, she was seriously injured and had to be treated first, and for another, there was still the Title Ceremony tomorrow.

Regardless, Nan Feihuang had to complete this before leaving; Xun Yu still wanted to use him to advertise.
