Chapter 328: Qian Daoliu: Who Taught My Sweet Granddaughter to Be Like This!?
Heavy, destructive martial spirits—like the Clear Sky Hammer and Golden Crocodile King—call for a kiting strategy.
Fast but fragile spirits—like the Ghost Leopard—require spiritual locking and direct rushing.
Balanced martial spirits—like the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon—go straight in for a head-on clash. But no matter what, the Six-Winged Angel wins through pure stat dominance.
Whether ranged, control-based, or brutal melee—storm-like combos until the enemy is dead—there was always one version of the Six-Winged Angel that could handle it. That's the crushing numerical superiority granted by a god-level martial spirit: the Six-Winged Angel may not be top-tier in any single stat, but it's just a hair's breadth below the top in all of them.
When Bo Saixi challenged Spirit Hall, Qian Renxue hadn't been able to join due to guarding Qian Renchuan as he absorbed his God-bestowed ring. But she had watched all of Bo Saixi's skills and now knew exactly how to counter them.
After Qian Renxue's combo sent Bo Saixi crashing to the ground, a spray of blood traced a vivid line through the air, full of broken teeth and nosebleed. A patch of her scalp was torn away, the Sea God Crown tumbling off her head, leaving her with a balding "Mediterranean" look.
At this moment, Bo Saixi no longer resembled the ethereal beauty she had been. Gone was her elegance and serenity. If Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu saw her like this, neither old man would've fallen for her.
As she fell midair, Qian Renxue caught up instantly. Her fourth soul ring—Angel's Descent—activated, boosting her speed by 150% and soul power by 50%.
Sea Ripple!
Agonizing pain from her scalp forced Bo Saixi to activate a soul skill. This one caused surrounding moisture to release thunderbolts in dense, defensive bursts.
But as soon as the water vapor touched Qian Renxue's Angel Domain, it froze—because of the strange, pale flame within.
Tempered by the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and inherited from the Snow Empress's sacrifice, the flame felt freezing cold to the skin, yet searingly hot to spiritual perception. It far exceeded the Holy Flame of the Six-Winged Angel and completely countered Bo Saixi—any soul skill involving water vapor was nullified.
Unless Bo Saixi were at sea, with its near-infinite water supply, she'd never overpower Qian Renxue. After all, even the pale flame was tied to soul power—Qian Renxue couldn't conjure an entire glacial island. But they were on land.
"You still have fight in you?"
Qian Renxue's eyes gleamed with menace. She didn't want the battle to stay in the air—her ideal battlefield was on land.
A golden meteor fell.
BOOM! The earth cracked open, dust and rubble flying. A heart-wrenching scream burst from Bo Saixi's mouth as blood gushed out.
She lay on the ground, her tall body curling forward from the pain. Her abdomen had taken a direct hit from a golden fist, which slammed her into the dirt. The force compressed her flesh and intestines together.
"That punch was for Grandpa!"
Golden light burst downward, bouncing Bo Saixi into the air. Qian Renxue instantly teleported behind her. As Bo Saixi reached about two meters high, Qian Renxue spun violently and delivered a vicious high kick to the back of her neck.
THUD!
Bo Saixi's body spiraled forward like a fiery wheel, her long white hair flying in every direction—a truly miserable sight.
"This kick was for Grandpa Golden Crocodile!"
Her screams didn't stop. Every strike hit her vital points. Pain clouded her mind—she was little more than a human sandbag for Qian Renxue's rage.
This one-sided thrashing wasn't just because Qian Renxue countered Bo Saixi. It was also due to Bo Saixi's lack of recent combat—and how she had grown up.
Sea God Island was isolated. Children awakened their spirits at six. Those without soul power were sent to the mainland. Those with it stayed to take the Sea God Trials at age eighteen. Fail, and you're sent off again.
Bo Saixi's original spirit wasn't even the Sea God—it was similar to Sea Lance Douluo's. But she received the Sea God's divine gift, her spirit becoming the Sea God, while Sea Lance's evolved into a top-tier Sea Lance.
Deemed the island's future hope, Bo Saixi was treasured as the one who might ascend to godhood. But at eighteen, she only qualified for the top-tier Eight Trials. After completing them and cultivating to level 95, she inherited the previous High Priest's legacy and advanced to level 99.
Her hardships all stemmed from the Eight Trials—but none ever put her life at risk. After becoming High Priest, she met Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu—both level 99. Using the power of the sea, she easily dominated their sparring matches. They couldn't have gone all out on her—they were clearly smitten.
Bo Saixi had never experienced true life-or-death combat. Her strength came from superior stats, not grit. Her battle experience likely matched Qian Renxue's during her own trials—or perhaps even less. She was no match for the current Qian Renxue.
In the path of Bo Saixi's rolling body, Qian Renxue reappeared. Using split-mind control, she recalled the Emperor's Sword—Ice Polar Peerless—back into her Snow Empress Jade Crown, regaining its bonuses: 200% spiritual power and 50% full-body boost.
Activating her Three Aperture Governing Heart, she arched like a bow, muscles tensed. A sharp gust rang out as her next punch struck Bo Saixi's face mid-spin—double the force due to their combined momentum.
"This punch was for Grandpa Guangling!"
The combo wasn't over. Qian Renxue grabbed Bo Saixi's right arm, stomped down hard on her right leg, pinning it into the dirt. With those two anchor points, Bo Saixi couldn't fly away—her right leg and arm were stretched to their limits.
Qian Renxue's right fist became a blade-hand, and she chopped down fiercely on the joint of Bo Saixi's arm.
"AAAAAHHHHH!"
Far away, the consecrators listening to Bo Saixi's constant screams and watching Qian Renxue's ruthless, terrifying combat style were frozen with fear.
Golden Crocodile Douluo's voice trembled slightly. "Grand Worshiper… is that… is that the young lady?"
Qian Daoliu looked utterly stunned.
He thought, Good heavens… who taught my sweet, obedient granddaughter to fight like this!?
