Soul Land: Bibi Dong Is My Martial Soul-Chapter 234: Dark Qian Renxue

Chapter 234: Dark Qian Renxue

"Nana, don't be rude!"

"He's our benefactor!"

Qian Renxue looked at Hu Liena and spoke seriously.

"Mister Su Mo gave me several treasures. There's a very high chance they'll help me regain my strength!"

She then explained what had just happened.

"Really?"

Hu Liena's eyes widened in surprise, her face filled with both joy and doubt.

She could hardly believe it. After all, she and Qian Renxue had been searching for a solution for years without success.

"Yes. These treasures are extremely rare. One of them even contains a damaged divine core."

Qian Renxue nodded to confirm it.

"Really?"

Hu Liena's eyes widened again, this time even more elated.

If what Qian Renxue said was true, then there was real hope she could regain her strength.

"We'll know whether it's real soon enough."

"Qian Renxue, you can try to restore your power now. I want to see whether your divinity can be recovered."

Su Mo spoke up again, addressing Qian Renxue.

He had to keep an eye on things—if anything went wrong, he could intervene in time.

"Very well. Then I'll trouble Mister Su Mo to guard me."

Hearing Su Mo's words, Qian Renxue was moved. She immediately agreed.

Guard her?

Hu Liena's expression shifted slightly. Could this man's strength surpass even Qian Renxue's?

She didn't understand the full situation, but she could see Qian Renxue held deep respect and trust toward Su Mo. That made her even more curious about his identity.

Just who was this man?

Qian Renxue was already seated cross-legged on the ground. She first took out the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's core and began absorbing and refining it.

Her problem was her damaged divine core. Without repairing that, even absorbing the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's core and brain marrow wouldn't raise her spirit power.

Only after restoring her divinity could her spirit power be reclaimed.

Buzz—

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's core was quickly absorbed into Qian Renxue's body, releasing an invisible surge of energy. freewebnoveℓ.com

Her martial spirit appeared behind her automatically, though it looked dim and colorless.

Qian Renxue's martial spirit hadn't always been like this. Ever since her divine core was damaged, it had lost its brilliance.

Buzz—

Suddenly, a black aura burst from her martial spirit. The already dim wings and halo darkened even further.

This was what Hu Liena saw on the outside.

But from Su Mo's perspective, he could see Qian Renxue's divine core entangled with the fragmented core of the Evil God, the two forces attempting to devour each other.

'It does seem to be working,' Su Mo thought silently. Both sides were trying to consume the other to repair themselves.

At the moment, the Evil God's divine fragment seemed to hold a slight advantage.

However, Su Mo wasn't worried. The Evil God's divine core was rootless, like a floating weed. Qian Renxue's divinity, on the other hand, had an owner—it was connected to her soul and spirit power, constantly providing reinforcement.

As time passed, the Evil God's divine fragment began to falter and was gradually devoured by Qian Renxue's divine core.

Yet during the process, the Evil God's properties were corrupting Qian Renxue's divinity, staining it with darkness and evil.

By the time Qian Renxue had fully absorbed the Evil God's divine fragment, her martial spirit had completely transformed—into a pitch-black fallen angel.

"Heehee~ I'm back!"

Suddenly, her martial spirit opened its eyes and giggled.

Normally, Qian Renxue's martial spirit kept its eyes closed. Now, it had opened them.

"You again!"

The moment she saw those eyes, Qian Renxue immediately realized—it was the dark side of herself.

Back when she was undergoing her god trials, this dark version had once emerged.

But after she came to a true understanding of herself, that dark side had vanished.

Yet now it had reappeared—and this time, it had manifested within her martial spirit.

It felt as if her martial spirit had developed its own consciousness. And to her horror, she found she couldn't control it.

"What... what's happening..."

Panic overtook Qian Renxue. Just moments ago, she had been overjoyed by the restoration of her divinity, and now her martial spirit was out of her control.

"Qian Renxue, surprised? I'm back!"

The dark Qian Renxue smiled coldly.

She was able to return because Qian Renxue's martial spirit had been tainted by darkness. It was like a fish finding water again—she instantly revived, full of strength.

"This time, you can't drive me out..."

Dark Qian Renxue continued, "But you can choose to accept me—accept the dark part of yourself. If you do, you'll regain control of your martial spirit."

"Well? Will you accept me?"

Unlike before, this time the dark Qian Renxue didn't act out violently. She was tempting Qian Renxue instead.

If she succeeded, she could fully emerge.

Though not as an independent entity, but by merging with Qian Renxue's primary consciousness.

She had hoped to completely seize control of the body, but now that Qian Renxue had regained her divinity, it was impossible. She couldn't fully dominate.

So all she could do was tempt Qian Renxue into accepting her and becoming one.

And she was confident Qian Renxue would do so—because if she didn't, she'd never regain control over her own power.

"Damn it..."

Watching her martial spirit become her own dark side, Qian Renxue looked grim.

She realized there was no way to erase this darkness anymore.

She knew it was the result of the corruption of her divine core.

Su Mo had warned her—she just hadn't expected the corruption to manifest like this.

She thought it would only affect the nature of her power.

She never imagined her dark self would return.

If she had a choice, of course she'd want to remain the golden Angel God.

But looking at the six black wings behind her, how was this an angel? It was clearly a fallen angel.

"If the price for regaining my strength is to become a fallen angel... then I accept."

Qian Renxue quickly calmed down.

She chose to accept the reality before her.

Buzz—

With that decision, the dark Qian Renxue in front of her disappeared.

She hadn't vanished, though—she had merged with Qian Renxue.

The process lasted less than a second. When Qian Renxue opened her eyes again, something had changed.

She was still the same Qian Renxue, but a subtle shift could be seen in her gaze.

"So this... is my true self..."

Qian Renxue felt the change within and smiled faintly.

She felt great. After accepting her dark side, she realized that this was the complete version of herself.

If she hadn't done so, she would've forgotten who she once was.

The Qian Renxue of the past had always carried darkness—like when she disguised herself as Xue Qinghe in the Heaven Dou Empire. The real prince had been killed by her.

Later, to solidify her position, she had poisoned the other princes.

She even planned to poison Emperor Xue Ye in the end.

Though that plan failed and all her efforts were ruined, these were all part of her darker self.

Later, in order to inherit the Angel God's position, she severed her dark side.

Only now, after accepting that part of herself, did she realize that this was the true, whole Qian Renxue.

Back when she became the Angel God, she had actually been incomplete.

...

In the God Realm—

While Qian Renxue's divine core was being restored, many gods sensed the phenomenon.

"Hm? That's not a divine inheritance, nor the creation of a new god position... Did a fallen god regain their power?"

"Possibly. No idea who it is though..."

"We'll find out when they ascend. This has happened before. When a god regains their power like this, it doesn't mean they're recognized by the God Realm. They'll have to ascend again to reclaim their position."

"..."

The gods of the realm sensed it and were briefly curious, but didn't pay much attention to it afterward.

Only Tang San and Xiao Wu cared more than the rest.

Because they could sense that the energy originated from the world of Douluo Continent.

"I wonder who it is... someone actually regained the power of a god?"

"Could it be Qian Renxue?"

Tang San made a guess. In the Douluo world, the one he knew best aside from his allies was Qian Renxue.

"That's impossible, isn't it? Her divine core was shattered. There's no way it could be restored!"

Xiao Wu shook her head.

"Sigh... whoever it is, I hope they don't bring danger to Douluo Continent."

Tang San sighed softly, worry still lingering in his heart.

Regardless of whether it was Qian Renxue or not, a new god emerging in Douluo Continent was enough to cause concern.

After all, Tang Sect still resided there. So did the other members of the Shrek Seven Devils. His parents too were still in the lower world.

"This isn't something we should be worrying about."

"Brother San, right now the most important thing is to cultivate divine power and grow stronger!"

"Otherwise, as a Judgement God, you'll just be a figurehead—none of the other gods will listen to you!"

Xiao Wu tried to comfort him after seeing his troubled expression.

To her, Tang San was the only one who truly mattered. No one else was important.

All she wanted now was for him to increase his power, truly become a God King, and stop being a powerless title others could ignore.

"You're right, Xiao Wu."

"And even if something really does happen, I wouldn't be able to do anything now anyway. I need to focus on getting stronger."

Hearing her words, Tang San felt they made sense. He pushed aside his worries and resumed cultivating with Xiao Wu.

"Congratulations on regaining the power of a god."

In Star Dou Forest, seeing Qian Renxue's successful recovery, Su Mo offered his congratulations.

He could tell—just like him, Qian Renxue now possessed god-level strength, but had yet to receive the acknowledgment of the God Realm.

But that didn't matter.

As long as she had her power back, it was enough for Qian Renxue to accomplish the things she wanted to do.

"Thank you, Mister Su Mo. Without you, I never would have recovered my strength."

Qian Renxue sincerely expressed her gratitude.

She had now fully regained her power, and her spirit power had once again broken past Rank 100.

She had also successfully absorbed the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's core and brain marrow.

After reclaiming her strength, Qian Renxue couldn't help but glance at Su Mo again—but she still couldn't see through him.

"Mister Su Mo... you're also a god, aren't you?"

"May I ask—what kind of god are you?"

Qian Renxue looked at him with deep curiosity.

She truly wanted to know Su Mo's identity—and his reasons for helping her.

Still overwhelmed with joy from Qian Renxue's recovery, Hu Liena suddenly looked at Su Mo in shock after hearing Qian Renxue's words.

She had never imagined that Su Mo was a god too.

"I'll tell you next time."

"And next time we meet, I promise—I'll bring another surprise."

Su Mo smiled mysteriously.

"Well then, since you've regained your strength, it's time for me to take my leave."

"We'll meet again."

With those words, Su Mo's figure flickered—and vanished.

He had more to say, but he'd wait until he visited again with Bibi Dong.

"..."

Qian Renxue hadn't expected Su Mo to leave so abruptly. She hadn't even had time to say what she wanted.

"So powerful... I don't even know where he went. I can't trace a single sign!"

She was once again shaken by Su Mo's strength.

Even after regaining her divine power, she couldn't track his departure—it was as if he had vanished completely from this world.

This only confirmed for her that Su Mo was indeed a god.

"We'll meet again... and he said there would be another surprise?"

"What surprise?"

"Who exactly are you... Why are you helping me so much?"

She pondered Su Mo's parting words, her heart full of questions once again.

Yet despite her curiosity, she didn't doubt his goodwill.

She knew Su Mo had genuinely helped her.

And that made her look forward even more to the next time they met.

"Nana, let's go."

"This continent still needs someone to stand up."

Qian Renxue turned and prepared to leave with Hu Liena.

Now that she had regained her strength, she would fulfill the promise she made to Su Mo—

To complete the unfinished mission of Spirit Hall.

It was something she had always wanted to do.

And knowing that Su Mo wished for it too only strengthened her resolve.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Hu Liena's voice trembled with emotion.

Tears welled in her eyes as she looked at Qian Renxue, finally restored to her former glory.

It hadn't been easy.

She was truly happy for her.

"Your Highness, I'll reach out to the remaining members of Spirit Hall. I'm sure once they know you've regained your strength, they'll rally behind you again!"

Hu Liena spoke with excitement.

Even though the Spirit Empire had been destroyed, there was no way all the spirit masters had been wiped out—only the upper echelon of Spirit Hall had fallen.

She believed that those still loyal to Spirit Hall would surely stand with Qian Renxue once they learned she had returned.
