Chapter 535: Ye Guyi, You Shall Be the Angel God!
"The Angel Clan will forever remember your kindness. As long as you command it, our soul masters will follow you through fire and water without hesitation."
Hearing these words, Huo Yuhao nodded. He knew that Zhao Die'er was genuinely grateful for his role in bringing Qian Renxue's soul back, but the part about "following him through fire and water" was likely just polite rhetoric.
After all, whether Qian Renxue's return would truly benefit the Angel Clan was still uncertain.
Huo Yuhao turned toward Qian Renxue. "Qian Renxue, don't forget our agreement. From today onward, you will assist Ye Guyi in inheriting the Angel God's position. As for who she is, I'm sure you can already tell."
Qian Renxue had already noticed the young girl with three pairs of wings. She sighed and said, "So, this is Ye Guyi? Just as you said, she already possesses three pairs of wings despite only being a Soul Emperor. Such a talent… even I cannot compare. If she inherits the Angel God's position, she will undoubtedly surpass my former self."
Ye Guyi was stunned. She looked at Qian Renxue in shock, then hesitantly raised a finger and pointed at herself. "Me? Inherit the Angel God's position?"
She had never imagined that Huo Yuhao and Qian Renxue would say such a thing it felt unreal.
After all, in historical records, gods were the epitome of strength. Even in ancient times, a Rank 99 Ultimate Douluo was no match for a god.
"Yes, you will inherit the Angel God's position. That is the agreement I made with Huo Yuhao." Qian Renxue floated over to Ye Guyi, smiling as she said, "Don't worry, with my guidance, you will undoubtedly become the next Angel God. Not only will this restore the Angel Clan's former glory, but it will also help us fight against my greatest enemy Tang San. I am no match for him, but you… you might be the key to defeating him."
The other Angel Clan soul masters were visibly shaken, their faces shifting between shock and joy.
If Ye Guyi could truly become the next Angel God, it would be a tremendous leap forward for her.
And for the Angel Clan, it would be an immense victory.
After all, they all knew from historical records just how "brilliant" their ancestor Qian Renxue was and how many questionable decisions she had made.
But as descendants, it wasn't their place to criticize their ancestor openly they could only complain internally.
To be honest, if Qian Renxue wasn't the former Angel God, and if she wasn't their only hope of restoring the Angel Clan's former glory, they wouldn't have been so eager for her return.
Meanwhile, Ye Guyi felt as if a great weight had been placed upon her shoulders.
The Tower Master and the Ancestor were entrusting her with the Angel God's position.
And on top of that, the Ancestor wanted her to face Tang San the god who had won the divine war and brought down the Angel Clan.
Could she really shoulder this responsibility?
She didn't like Tang San either after all, he was responsible for the Angel Clan's downfall.
But she knew that fighting against someone who had won the Divine War was no simple matter.
Could she truly live up to their expectations?
She felt lost and nervous, her small hands instinctively clenching together as if grabbing onto a lifeline.
Her gaze turned toward Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao, possessing an immensely strong spiritual sense, immediately sensed Ye Guyi's thoughts.
He transmitted his voice to her. "Guyi, I know you have doubts about this, but don't worry. You won't be fighting Tang San alone no matter what happens, I will be standing beside you."
As he spoke, he gave her a reassuring look.
Ye Guyi felt her confidence stabilizing, but at the same time, a thought crossed her mind. "Tower Master… can you read my thoughts?"
Huo Yuhao responded telepathically, "Yes. My spiritual power is extremely strong, and since you have no defenses against me, I can sense your thoughts."
Ye Guyi's eyes widened in realization, and then her face flushed red as she quickly turned her head away, feeling embarrassed.
If that was true… then did he know what she had been thinking earlier?!
She quickly pushed those thoughts aside, took a deep breath, and steadied herself. "Tower Master, Ancestor, I will not let you down."
Both Qian Renxue and Huo Yuhao smiled in satisfaction.
"Good," Qian Renxue said. "From now on, I will stay by your side and help you inherit the Angel God's position. However, becoming a god is not easy the key lies in restoring faith in the Angel God and gathering divine power. If the Spirit Hall still existed, this would not be difficult, but since it was destroyed long ago, we will need to carefully plan our approach."
Restoring faith in the Angel God in a world that had long abandoned such beliefs was no easy task.
Huo Yuhao spoke up. "I can assist in this matter and help accelerate the process of forming the Angel God's position. However, before that, I must take precautions to ensure that neither you nor the other Angel Clan soul masters will betray me."
Qian Renxue frowned slightly, but after thinking it over, she nodded. "Alright, I agree. The Angel Clan soul masters will also agree. But what exactly do you plan to do to ensure our loyalty?"
She was well aware that her current relationship with Huo Yuhao was purely based on mutual interest there was no personal trust between them.
It was understandable that he wanted safeguards in place.
If he could truly accelerate the process of forming the Angel God's position, it would be a worthwhile deal.
As for the other Angel Clan soul masters, if she accepted, they had no reason to refuse.
Huo Yuhao smirked slightly but did not answer immediately.
Instead, he activated the Ice God's Divine Flame within his spiritual sea.
In an instant
A pair of ice blue wings appeared on his back, and his eyes turned into a deep, crystalline blue.
A cold mist spread outward, and pure water currents surged through the air as layers of ice began forming around them.
The entire pavilion was transformed into a world of mist, water, and ice.
Everyone present felt as if they had entered another dimension.
Huo Yuhao's voice echoed through the frozen air.
"Qian Renxue, I, too, am on the path to godhood. I already possess some divine authority so naturally, I have my own ways to ensure loyalty."
Qian Renxue's expression shifted to shock.
The pressure emanating from Huo Yuhao's body was overwhelming.
It reminded her of the oppressive aura Tang San had once exuded.
Although Huo Yuhao's current power was far from Tang San's, she could still sense the same divine presence hidden beneath it.
It was an aura that only those who had touched the realm of gods could possess.
