Chapter 223: The White-Stockinged Little Angel — Winning Over Qian Renxue
This time, Ah Zhu intended to repay Tang Hao a hundredfold, a thousandfold, for the suffering she had endured, making him experience the same despair she once felt.
As for Tang San, whom she had never even met, if not for Lord's orders forbidding his death...
She would have tortured Tang San alongside Tang Hao until they both died.
Even if Tang San was her own child!
As the former leader of the Man-Faced Demon Spider clan, she had produced countless offspring.
She had never possessed much maternal affection for her children.
Not to mention that Tang San was Tang Hao's bastard. Killing him would mean nothing to her.
Far away, Tang Hao remained completely unaware that his death was drawing near.
Watching Tang San finish absorbing two soul bones and his fourth soul ring, successfully advancing to rank 42 Soul Ancestor, Tang Hao was satisfied beyond measure.
Tang San's terrifying talent had given him hope of revenge.
After Tang San reached the Soul Ancestor realm, Tang Hao began telling him about Slaughter City and his elder brother, Tang Xiao.
"Xiao San, now that you've become a Soul Ancestor, it's time I told you about divine inheritance."
Tang San's eyes immediately sparkled.
Gods. Eternal life.
This had always been his greatest desire.
At last, he was finally about to learn the secrets of becoming an immortal god.
"Back then, members of our Clear Sky Sect earned the favor of a mighty god known as the Asura God."
"The great Asura God once promised that His successor would be chosen only from the greatest geniuses of the Clear Sky Sect."
"Although your Uncle Tang Xiao and I possessed decent talent, neither of us caught His eye. Your uncle instead became the Asura God's High Priest."
"But Xiao San, you possess twin martial souls, an external soul bone, and a hundred-thousand-year soul bone. With your talent, you should be worthy of entering the Asura God's sight."
"As for the place where His inheritance awaits, it is called the Slaughter City. In the future, Father will personally take you there."
Tang Hao patiently explained everything.
Beside him, Tang San listened with complete fascination.
The words "Slaughter City" were engraved firmly into his mind.
Even if he one day forgot his hatred toward the Spirit Hall, he would never forget the place where he could inherit a god's legacy.
"Father, I will definitely obtain the Asura God's inheritance. Then I'll destroy the Spirit Hall and seek justice for you, for the Clear Sky Sect, and for Mother."
Tang San clenched his fists and made his vow.
"Good. Xiao San, you are Father's pride. I believe in you."
Tang Hao smiled, already imagining the future destruction of the Spirit Hall.
If he were still alive by then...
He truly wanted to witness Yun Yuan's face filled with despair.
Coming back to reality, Tang Hao looked at Tang San with even greater expectation and resumed his harsh training, hoping to accelerate Tang San's growth.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and darkness blanketed the sky.
Meanwhile, Spirit City remained brilliantly illuminated.
…
Inside the Atlas Hall.
Yun Yuan slowly opened his eyes, preparing to end his cultivation for the day.
The first thing he saw was a beautifully dressed Qian Renxue.
She wore a fitted white-and-gold dress, while her legs were wrapped in pure white stockings that emphasized her holy elegance.
Her long, slender legs glowed softly beneath the light, exuding both nobility and breathtaking beauty.
"Xue'er, you look absolutely stunning today."
Unable to hide his admiration, Yun Yuan swallowed unconsciously.
Today's Qian Renxue was both sacred and alluring, making his heart race.
Qian Renxue smiled upon hearing his praise.
She sat on Yun Yuan's lap, wrapped her arms around his neck, and whispered seductively,
"Brother Yun Yuan, Xue'er has grown up now."
"I'm going to make you mine."
"I can't wait any longer. Tonight... you belong to me."
As soon as she finished speaking, unable to resist any longer, she gently kissed him.
After a long while, they finally separated.
Qian Renxue's cheeks were flushed crimson.
Combined with her elegant attire, she resembled a holy angel who had descended into the mortal world.
"I need your help with my cultivation."
Yun Yuan picked Qian Renxue up and carried her toward the place where they normally cultivated together.
"Martial Soul Fusion Skill—Atlas Seven Explorations!"
...
The next morning.
Qian Renxue awoke upon the soft bed.
Looking at the man sleeping beside her, she couldn't help smiling with satisfaction.
"Brother Yun Yuan... I adore you so much."
The more she looked at him, the more affectionate she became, showering him with kisses and cuddling against him.
Feeling the warmth beside him, Yun Yuan slowly opened his eyes to find Qian Renxue rubbing her cheek against his.
After spending some quiet time together, the two finally got dressed.
Yun Yuan wore flowing white robes, looking like an immortal descended from the heavens.
Qian Renxue wore a golden dress paired with over-the-knee white stockings trimmed with lace.
"Brother Yun Yuan, I've made up my mind."
"I'm going to cultivate seriously from now on."
Yun Yuan blinked in surprise.
"Xue'er, why the sudden determination? Didn't you always dislike cultivation?"
Qian Renxue glanced shyly at him, a faint blush appearing on her flawless face.
"Well... because I'm too weak."
"I want to become stronger."
"If only I'd cultivated properly before and strengthened my body..."
"Then I wouldn't have been so frail."
Hearing that, Yun Yuan could only smile wryly.
He truly hadn't expected that this would be the reason Qian Renxue had finally become motivated.
Still, seeing her willing to work hard made him genuinely happy.
At present, Qian Renxue was only a Soul Emperor.
Although reaching that realm at her age already made her an extraordinary genius, her starting point and resources were the very best on the Douluo Continent.
Had she trained diligently all this time, she might already have reached the Soul Douluo realm or perhaps even become a Titled Douluo.
Fortunately, it wasn't too late.
With another two or three years of cultivation, reaching Soul Saint or Soul Douluo should be possible, allowing her to begin the Angel God's divine trials.
A few years after that, she might even become the next Angel God.
Having made up her mind, Qian Renxue returned to the Angel Hall and immersed herself in arduous cultivation.
Watching this scene, Qian Xunji was so moved that tears nearly streamed down his face.
My precious daughter... Father has finally lived to see the day you truly devote yourself to cultivation.
Several days later...
Within the forest where Tang Hao and Tang San were staying...
A woman dressed in a dark purple-black gown, wearing a spider mask, quietly appeared.
It was Ah Zhu, who had left the Spirit Hall to seek revenge against Tang Hao.
"Tang Hao... I've finally found you!"
"I've never forgotten what happened back then."
"Today... no one can save you!"
