*****
As everyone turned towards the source of the voice, they saw a woman in a white gown standing in mid-air.
She wielded a long sword, her face stern, her gaze fixed firmly on Tang San.
"Kneel before me!"
In an instant, to the astonishment of everyone, Qian Renxue descended with her sword, releasing a formidable pressure that directly pressed down on Tang San.
"Who are you, and why do you attack me?!" Tang San's face paled, realizing his opponent's strength surpassed his own.
Without hesitation, Qian Renxue tapped her waist, and a bright light shot out from her storage soul device.
As the light faded, a silver token emerged, clearly inscribed with bold letters: Elder's Decree of the Spirit Hall!
Seeing the inscription, Tang San's pupils contracted suddenly, realizing the high status of his opponent within the Spirit Hall.
"So, you're an elder of the Spirit Hall! This complicates things."
The Spirit Hall experts, witnessing Qian Renxue's actions, showed expressions of relief. Hu Liena's decision to release Tang San had left them frustrated, but Qian Renxue's intervention indicated they wouldn't let Tang San go.
"As an elder of the Spirit Hall, don't you know the Saintess has already given orders allowing Tang San to leave this place?"
"Does the Spirit Hall's word mean nothing?!"
Tang San's face turned grim, but for the sake of survival, he forced himself to remain composed and spoke up.
"The Saintess? She doesn't represent the Spirit Hall!"
Qian Renxue sneered coldly, feeling humiliated before Shui Wuyue.
Since Hu Liena wanted Tang San to live, Qian Renxue was determined to kill him.
In the next moment, Qian Renxue's sword aimed straight for Tang San's neck.
Seeing this, Tang San panicked.
He exerted his utmost strength, attempting to break free from Qian Renxue's restraint.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
In the blink of an eye, Qian Renxue and Tang San engaged in close combat, creating a series of thunderous clashes.
However, after a dozen breaths, Tang San, despite unleashing all his power, was defeated by Qian Renxue!
"Tang San, is this all the strength you have?"
As Qian Renxue beheaded Tang San with a single stroke, a scornful expression appeared on her face.
Although Tang San had exerted his full strength, Qian Renxue hadn't even displayed her martial soul.
In the sky, Shui Wuya, hidden within the illusion, watched the events below with slight surprise.
He hadn't anticipated Qian Renxue's swift and decisive action, which starkly contrasted with Hu Liena's demeanor!
"Enough!"
Seeing Tang San on the brink of death at Qian Renxue's hands, Hu Liena couldn't hold back any longer and shouted.
Qian Renxue raised her eyebrows, casting a disdainful glance at Hu Liena.
"Tang San, as the son of Tang Hao and an enemy of the Spirit Hall, if you release him, do you understand the consequences?"
Qian Renxue's voice was icy, showing no intention of giving Hu Liena any face.
"As the Saintess of the Spirit Hall, I order you to let Tang San leave this place. I will take full responsibility for the consequences!"
Hu Liena glared at Qian Renxue, attempting to use her status as the Saintess of the Spirit Hall to force her to comply.
"What Saintess? You're just a dog raised by Bibi Dong. Today, I'll kill you along with Tang San. Do you think Bibi Dong will mourn for you?"
Qian Renxue's cold laughter echoed, her words carrying disdain.
Many Spirit Hall experts showed displeasure upon hearing Qian Renxue insult the Pope. Even nearby, Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and Devil Bear Douluo, who were battling two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, had been secretly observing Qian Renxue's actions.
Until the moment when Qian Renxue was about to kill Tang San, they had harbored some satisfaction. After all, they would also be pleased to see Tang San dead. However, Qian Renxue's insult to the Pope was intolerable to them, and they looked at Qian Renxue with some dissatisfaction.
In the high sky, Shui Wuya remained indifferent, seemingly enjoying the spectacle.
"If Tang San were to die at Qian Renxue's hands, it would save me a lot of trouble."
Shui Wuya thought to himself, vaguely hoping that Qian Renxue would behead Tang San.
"Regardless of where you obtained your elder token, it's not a reason for your arrogance. If you defy my orders as the Saintess today, you will openly oppose the Spirit Hall!"
Upon hearing Qian Renxue insult the Pope, Hu Liena calmed down, a cold smile appearing on her face.
She noticed the dissatisfaction among the Spirit Hall experts towards Qian Renxue, and decided to put Qian Renxue in opposition to the Spirit Hall.
"Hu Liena, put away your tricks. Tang San must die today."
Qian Renxue, possessing her current level of cultivation, was no fool. She could sense the provocation in Hu Liena's words.
However, she no longer intended to continue arguing, directly swinging her longsword towards Tang San's head.
"Stop!"
Hu Liena was shocked and immediately erupted with her own power, turning into a pink shadow and rushing towards Qian Renxue.
At the same time, Tang San, lying on the ground, refused to accept his fate. As the sword came down, he once again unleashed his full power!
In an instant, Hu Liena and Tang San formed a united front against Qian Renxue.
"Well done!"
Qian Renxue, far from being angered, showed excitement in her beautiful eyes.
Then, a majestic golden soul power erupted from her body, and the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul emerged, radiating unparalleled holy light!
In a moment, all the creatures in the area were drawn to the sight of the Six-Winged Angel, creating a rare moment of silence in the world.
Even the three Titled Douluo experts couldn't help but feel disbelief. It was as if they were not witnessing a martial soul, but a true angel descending!
"Boom!"
As Qian Renxue released a wide-range attack of holy light, a thunderous roar erupted, knocking Tang San and Hu Liena to the ground!
"You!"
After barely stabilizing her figure, Hu Liena wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her face filled with incredulity.
Tang San was the same. He had just reached the level of a Soul Emperor and was nowhere near a match for Qian Renxue.
