Chapter 315: Yu Xiaogang's Martial Soul Shattered

All the people in Spirit City knelt down with extraordinary devotion to Qian Renxue, showing boundless reverence for the Divine Sense and faith in Qian Renxue of the Angel Clan.

Qian Renxue merely raised her hand slightly, and everyone seemed bathed in the Angel's light, their whole being instantly becoming exceedingly enlightened.

Qian Renxue paid no heed to the crowd; her massive Six-Winged Angel wings flapped, and she turned into a streak of golden light, departing Spirit City.

Since Qian Renxue became a deity, Tang San has been deeply conflicted and went straight to his father and elder uncle.

"Father, elder uncle, the situation is tense now; Qian Renxue has become a deity. We must leave Jialing Pass immediately, or we may be unable to escape if we delay."

Tang Xiao shook his head: "Xiao San, your future is boundless and you possess the Divine inheritance; you go first. The rest of us from the Clear Sky Sect may not be able to leave."

Tang San hurriedly said: "Elder uncle, there is still time; as long as we reach the Star Dou Great Forest, everything still has a chance to be turned around."

Tang Xiao said helplessly: "Xiao San, back then the Clear Sky Sect already went into hiding once. At that time we retreated for the so‑called greater good, preserving our strength, but the result was that the Clear Sky Sect lost millennia of prestige. Even if we emerge now, everyone will see us as cowards, and we no longer bear the glorious name of the Number One Sect Under Heaven."

"As your great‑grandfather said, after that retreat our proud spirit was broken; to make the world remember the Clear Sky Sect again, we must display its true spirit."

"Moreover, the Clear Sky Sect bears deep grudges against the Spirit Empire, and our re‑emergence now violates the original pact; such actions will demand a price."

"Even if Qian Renxue cannot find my father and you, she will trouble the entire Clear Sky Sect and destroy all its foundations; as Sect Leader I absolutely cannot retreat."

Tang San, hearing this, quickly looked toward his father.

Unfortunately, Tang Hao, his face equally resolute, said: "Xiao San, you go quickly. I was already a sinner of the Clear Sky Sect; for the sect, I will never shrink back again."

Tang San looked at everyone's expressions and, finally helpless, sped away from the camp with Xiao Wu.

Tang San knows very well that with Qian Renxue's ascension, there are only two relatively safe places in the world: the Core Zone of the Star Dou Great Forest, and the Sea God Island.

As for Yu Tianheng, Dai Mubai and others, seeing Qian Renxue become a deity, Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan stayed beside Yu Xiaogang, making a final stand for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

As for Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, the two have already left the camp and headed straight to the Heavenly Gate Pass where the Star Luo Empire is.

There lies the location of Xing Luo Da Di; as a prince, Dai Mubai will return to his parents no matter what happens.

Meanwhile, Lin Gong and Ning Fengzhi's followers also gathered; the situation is extremely critical, and if Qian Renxue truly unleashes a slaughter, both major sects could be destroyed at once.

Unfortunately, the war has reached such a level that several major sects and the Spirit Empire are locked in a life‑or‑death struggle; even if they flee back to their sects now, there may be no chance of survival.

Of course they still have one hope: that Yang Xiong might also become a deity, to rival Qian Renxue.

On the Jialing Pass wall, a golden silhouette descended from the sky—this is Qian Renxue.

At this moment Qian Renxue, now a deity, radiates an incomparably holy light; a massive Six-Winged Angel illusion appears in the sky, seeming both full of compassion for the world and of sanctity, making it impossible to look directly.

Golden Crocodile Douluo led the Six Great Offerings to kneel first on one knee: "Salute the Angel God, long live the Angel God, long live the Spirit Empire!"

Immediately afterward, everyone in the Spirit Empire knelt on one knee, all of them shouting exuberantly.

"Long live the Angel God, long live the Spirit Empire!"

Qian Renxue looked at all the personnel of the Spirit Empire, her eyes showing not a hint of feeling, as if everyone were mere ants to her.

Among all the Spirit Empire members, only Bibidong did not kneel; he stood dumbfounded, watching Qian Renxue, his expression shifting unpredictably—sometimes full of hatred, sometimes of inner conflict.

Qian Renxue said coldly: "Bibidong, I have always thought you invincible, yet you still lost, losing to an outsider. You have greatly disappointed me."

Bibidong's mouth twitched with bitterness: "Xiao Xue, you won; you became a deity first, and I fear I will never become a deity in this lifetime."

Qian Renxue's face turned grim: "Isn't this your retribution? Your ambition and madness nearly caused the Spirit Empire's ruin; you have always been a sinner of the Spirit Empire."

Bibidong suddenly burst into a wild laugh: "Hahaha, I'm a sinner; then what are you, the sinner's daughter?"

"Don't forget, you always carry the filthy blood of me and the Angel Clan; that's a reality you can never escape. Even if you become a deity, it remains a lifelong blemish."

Qian Renxue's face showed a hint of ferocity: "Is this why you have always hated me, that even when I was very young you wanted to kill me simply because I am an inheritor of the Angel Clan?"

Bibidong sneered: "You should have already witnessed the Angel Clan's darkness; Qian Xun's sins are deep, Qian Daoliu's hypocrisy extreme. In the past, for the empire, I didn't want to speak and dared not speak; now that we are at this stage, what else am I afraid to say?"

Qian Renxue's face showed anger: "You may not speak of my grandfather; he is my only relative, who gave everything for me. Unlike you, who is cold‑blooded, selfish, and ambitiously greedy."

Bibidong looked at Qian Renxue's demeanor, his face appearing extremely bitter.

The Golden Crocodile Douluo beside him quickly spoke: "Miss, the overall situation is still uncertain; we must prioritize the Spirit Empire's affairs, or else trouble will arise later."

Qian Renxue and Bibidong argued on the Jialing Pass wall; although it insulated others' hearing, such internal strife at this time is certainly bad news.

Qian Renxue turned her head to look beyond Jialing Pass; outside, the Heaven Dou Empire's army seemed more chaotic, far from the previously well‑trained formations.

Especially, faintly, it seemed some experts had slipped away, resembling a scattering of birds and beasts.

Qian Renxue gazed at the Spirit Empire's army, instantly ascended, her golden light blinding to the eye.

When everyone looked at Qian Renxue again, she was already confronting the Heaven Dou Empire's Central Army Commander; all defenses were utterly ineffective against her.

Even her simplest walk exerts endless suppressive force on those around her.

Emperor Xue Ye still sat at the center, surrounded by Tang Xiao and Ning Fengzhi's followers; even Dugu Bo had not left. Among all Title Douluo, only Tang San left with Xiao Wu.

Even though Emperor Xue Ye endured immense pressure, he now looked at the woman who plotted against his four princes, his eyes filled with fury.

Qian Renxue's mouth curled in disdain: "Xue Ye, the Heaven Dou Empire's great power has collapsed; if you surrender obediently, I might spare a way of survival for the Heaven Dou Imperial Family."

"Ning Fengzhi, Tang Xiao, your three sects repeatedly oppose my Spirit Empire; have you never considered that you might sacrifice the millennia‑old foundation of your sects?"

Whether it was Emperor Xue Ye, or Ning Fengzhi and Tang Xiao, even the Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo beside Ning Fengzhi, all fell into silence.

The deity's power was stronger than they imagined, exerting endless pressure; even the strongest Sword Douluo wore a grave expression, clutching the Bone Douluo to protect Ning Fengzhi.

In fact, aside from Tang San, there were others who thought of fleeing, but both Ning Fengzhi and Tang Xiao have already given far too much for this war; they cannot be easily abandoned, and with so many troops scattered across the battlefield, gathering them is cumbersome.

Not to mention Qian Renxue arrived in such haste, moving too fast—only a few dozen minutes have passed since her ascension, leaving no chance to escape before a deity.

While everyone remained silent, Yu Xiaogang suddenly spoke with unusual fury.

"Your Spirit Empire acts perversely, unfit to represent Angelic justice. When you destroyed my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, at worst I would have died; besides, I have long been homeless."

Qian Renxue glanced casually at Yu Xiaogang, a hint of disdain in her eyes.

"Interesting—everyone in this world has the right to say that, except you, Yu Xiaogang, who has no right to speak it."

"What kind of disciple of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan are you? Don't forget, you were expelled from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family long ago; even your father disowned you. If it weren't for the Spirit Empire's library and your status as a Spirit Empire elder, a scum like you would have died countless times already."

"Moreover, given your situation, if that woman hadn't been soft‑hearted, what right would you have had to become an elder of my Spirit Empire?"

"And as a Spirit Empire elder, to oppose the Spirit Empire makes you a faithless, shameless traitor to Angelic belief; what right do you have to act magnanimously?"

Before Yu Xiaogang could say anything else, Qian Renxue glanced at him again, and an endless pressure surged through Yu Xiaogang's entire body.

Before anyone else could react, Yu Xiaogang spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his entire martial soul shattered outright, the soul power on his body vanished completely, and he instantly seemed to have aged more than ten years.

The people around them felt another wave of dread; they didn't expect Qian Renxue to act at all—just a casual glance, and by virtue of his aura he instantly eliminated Yu Xiaogang's martial soul. This strength far surpasses Limit Douluo.

Qian Renxue snorted coldly, "Someone as shameless as you has no right to make me act. I'll destroy your martial soul now, as a lesson for your betrayal of the Spirit Empire."

"Also, let me tell you a truth: the world always respects the strong. If you lack strength, don't try to stand out; not everyone will respect you, and not everyone will give that woman face."
