Chapter 27: The Third Simulation

In front of the Pope's Palace, two figures stood in a standoff.

"Move aside!" Qian Renxue coldly stared at Spirit Kite Douluo, who was blocking her way.

She made no effort to conceal her six-winged angel martial soul. A golden holy sword gleamed in her hand, its tip aimed directly at Spirit Kite Douluo standing at the entrance.

Spirit Kite Douluo was a composed and intelligent woman. With one hand on her waist, she calmly met Qian Renxue's gaze.

"I don't know who you are, but without the Pope's order, I won't let you in," she said indifferently.

"Then die!!!"

Qian Renxue suddenly roared and shot forward like a golden streak.

At this moment, she was a Level 71 Soul Sage. Seven soul rings rippled around her, three of them lighting up at once. Her aura surged as she charged toward Spirit Kite Douluo!

Spirit Kite Douluo smirked coldly, showing no fear—after all, she was a Titled Douluo!

A crisp cry rang out, and behind her, the phantom of a spirit kite appeared.

Raising a single finger, she lightly tapped the tip of Qian Renxue's incoming sword.

The spirit kite phantom radiated brilliance, and a powerful force burst from her fingertip.

"Boom!!!"

A deafening clash of metal echoed.

Qian Renxue staggered back a few steps, the madness in her eyes growing even stronger.

"Die!!!"

A colossal six-winged angel statue materialized behind her, mirroring her movements as it raised a golden holy sword and slashed down at Spirit Kite Douluo.

The sheer force shook the entire building.

Spirit Kite Douluo's expression darkened. She said coldly, "If you want to die, I'll grant your wish!"

She struck out with her palm, and the spirit kite phantom behind her solidified, its claws clamping down on the golden holy sword. The two powers clashed midair, locked in a deadlock.

But she was a Titled Douluo, standing two entire realms above Qian Renxue. Slowly, she began to suppress her opponent.

Qian Renxue's eyes grew even wilder.

Even if she had to fight to the death, she was determined to go all out against Spirit Kite Douluo.

At that moment, Snake Spear Douluo rushed into the hall and urgently called out, "Elder Ling Yuan, let go! Don't harm the Young Master!"

Only then did Spirit Kite Douluo stop suppressing Qian Renxue, merely maintaining a balance between their strengths.

She gracefully descended, her gaze wary as she studied Qian Renxue.

This young woman didn't look older than her early twenties, yet she had already reached the Soul Sage level!

And her martial soul was the Six-Winged Angel… Could she be from the Angel Clan of the Grand Worship?

It wasn't until now that Spirit Kite Douluo realized something.

Qian Renxue had stormed in aggressively, yet despite the many elders in the Pope's Palace, only she had come out to stop her.

So it turned out… she was the only one who hadn't considered the other party's identity!

Realizing this, Spirit Kite Douluo felt trapped in a difficult situation.

Snake Spear Douluo quickly spoke, "Young Master, whatever it is, we can discuss it. Violence won't solve anything…"

Qian Renxue ignored him, still locked in her struggle with Spirit Kite Douluo.

In the air, the angel statue continued its downward strike.

If Spirit Kite Douluo let go, the enormous golden holy sword would blast apart the towering palace doors!

But if Spirit Kite Douluo held firm, Qian Renxue wouldn't back down either!

After rushing day and night, she still hadn't fully recovered from the memories of her last simulation.

Her mind was filled with that insane woman, Bibi Dong, who had killed Sheng'an and their child. She had to get revenge!

Just then, the palace doors opened from within.

Bibi Dong stepped out, her gaze landing on the angel statue in the sky. A look of undisguised disgust appeared on her face.

That wretched thing—this martial soul had ruined her life!

Her scepter struck the ground with a sharp sound. "Outrageous! What are you doing, causing havoc here?!"

Bibi Dong's soul power surged, and a crimson ripple shot into the air, instantly shattering the angel statue.

As it crumbled, Qian Renxue's face paled, and blood seeped from the corner of her lips.

"You killed Sheng'an!!!" Qian Renxue roared at Bibi Dong.

But as soon as the words left her mouth, her consciousness cleared. Sheng'an had died in the simulation—her Sheng'an was still alive.

At that realization, her rationality swiftly returned.

Her hair gradually turned golden again.

"I don't understand what you're talking about," Bibi Dong snorted coldly, though a flash of shock flickered in her eyes.

Sheng'an… wasn't that just a character from her simulation?

Why had that name come from Qian Renxue's mouth?

Could it be that the simulation hadn't been just for her? Had Qian Renxue experienced it too?

When she had absorbed those memories, the impact had nearly torn her apart from pain. If Qian Renxue had gone through the same thing, then she must have inherited the hatred from the simulation as well!

With that thought, Bibi Dong quickly pieced things together.

Qian Renxue snapped out of it.

'That was just a simulation. In reality, Bibi Dong hasn't done anything yet.'

Most importantly, Sheng'an was still alive and well!

She had lost control and come charging in here—thankfully, she hadn't made an irreversible mistake.

Bibi Dong shot a sidelong glance toward the palace entrance and sneered, "Old man, since you're already here, why are you still hiding? Come out and deal with your granddaughter!"

Qian Renxue froze.

Turning her head, she saw a broad hand settle gently on her shoulder.

"Xiao Xue, did you run into trouble?"

A gentle voice asked from the figure who had appeared without a sound.

Qian Renxue's eyes reddened.

In that moment, she suddenly wanted to cry. But she held back, forcing a smile. "A little… just a little grievance."

She couldn't tell the truth.

Her grandfather had always wanted her to become a god. If he knew she had fallen for a man, let alone wanted to bear his child, he would never let it go!

In soul master cultivation, especially for female soul masters, marriage and childbirth significantly affected progress.

To achieve breakthroughs, one had to cultivate their body and spirit, avoiding distractions—especially in their youth.

That was why it was common for soul masters to have children at forty or fifty, and some never married at all!

Take Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo—they were lifelong bachelors. Even Spirit Kite Douluo had never married.

For Qian Renxue to inherit a god's position, there was no guarantee that Qian Daoliu wouldn't do something drastic to Zhou Sheng'an.

"Let's go back and rest for now," Qian Daoliu said affectionately.

Qian Renxue hummed in agreement, burying herself in his embrace, her small face streaked with tears—a truly pitiful sight.

Bibi Dong watched the grandfather and granddaughter leave the palace, her face twisted in a cold smirk.

Her gaze then shifted toward the "late arrivals"—Chrysanthemum Douluo and the other Titled Douluos.

These cunning elders had seen Qian Renxue, with her angel martial soul, go on a rampage, yet none had stepped forward to intervene…

Only Spirit Kite Douluo, the most straightforward among them, had dared to act.

"Elder Lingyuan, well done." Bibi Dong smiled, satisfaction gleaming in her eyes.

"It was my duty," Spirit Kite Douluo responded with a nod.

Bibi Dong smiled faintly, giving her a deep look before turning to leave.

At that moment, a prompt appeared before her.
