Chapter 2: She is so cute, it must be really beautiful when she cries!
"An assassin!" Several Title Douluos immediately released their Martial Souls, warily scanning their surroundings.
"Find him!" Without Qian Xunji or Qian Daoliu giving the order, Golden Crocodile Douluo, Thousand Jun Douluo, and others immediately left the Papal Palace to search the surroundings.
"This person" could launch a sneak attack right under the noses of the most powerful people in the Spirit Hall; he was definitely not simple!
In a corner outside the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong narrowed her eyes, quietly watching Golden Crocodile Douluo and the others.
"What exactly was that black streak of light just now?" She recalled the scene from just now—a black streak of light came from the horizon and disappeared into the Papal Palace in an instant.
She knew that something unexpected must have happened inside the Papal Palace.
"Hmph! Judging from their expressions, it probably isn't a good thing!" Bibi Dong's lips curled up slightly.
Inside the Papal Palace.
After sensing his surroundings, Qian Daoliu looked puzzled. "Strange!"
"Father, what's going on?" Qian Xunji breathed a sigh of relief upon discovering that Qian Renxue was not injured.
"With my spiritual power, I can't even find the person who's up to this!"
"What! How is this possible!" Qian Xunji's pupils shrank, and his expression became visibly serious.
"Could it be Tang Chen? Or Poseidon? Why would they do this?"
"It can't be them." Qian Daoliu shook his head, his thoughts racing.
Could there be another peerless Douluo in this world besides the three of us?
Or is this some kind of strange phenomenon that I can't understand, or perhaps it's related to a deity?
Qian Daoliu looked at Qian Renxue, who hadn't had time to retract her martial soul yet, seemingly frightened by the sudden change.
He called softly, "Xue'er!"
But she didn't seem to hear him.
Against a complex backdrop of growing up, Qian Renxue was stubborn and independent.
She was no longer a three-year-old child.
Although her mother's absence disappointed and saddened her, she no longer showed this sadness as openly as before.
Qian Xunji hated that she showed vulnerability because of Bibi Dong's estrangement.
She had hidden this emotion very well just now, and only Qian Daoliu, who was with her day and night, could see it.
But the sadness and disappointment were growing stronger in her heart!
She tried her best to suppress these emotions, hoping to bury them deep inside as usual.
Today was an incredibly important day, and she didn't want to disappoint her father!
However, those emotions continued to spread within her, and her suppression was completely ineffective!
A force within her was constantly nourishing these negative emotions!
Qian Renxue couldn't help but clench her fists, her nails digging fiercely into her palms!
The intense struggle between her will and emotions made her body tremble slightly!
"Xue'er! What's wrong?" Qian Xunji frowned slightly.
He had just checked Qian Renxue, and her body and mind were clearly unharmed!
Qian Renxue didn't answer.
Her will had completely crumbled!
She had fallen into the abyss of sorrow!
"Why..." Qian Renxue no longer possessed her usual noble demeanor, lowering her head and murmuring softly, her eyes quickly reddening.
"Hmm?" Qian Xunji frowned even deeper.
It had been a very long time since Qian Renxue had shown such a state!
And she would only do this because of one person—her mother, Bibi Dong!
"Such an important moment...why..." Qian Renxue was still immersed in sorrow.
Normally, she would have already sensed her father's displeasure and displayed the qualities of an excellent heir to the angelic lineage!
"Xue'er!" Qian Xunji was somewhat angry, his voice suddenly becoming much stern.
Qian Renxue's long-standing obedient demeanor had led him to believe that his teachings had long since made her abandon those useless emotions!
Now it seemed that this was merely wishful thinking on his part!
Qian Daoliu wasn't as stern or as clueless about Qian Renxue as Qian Xunji.
He knew that Qian Renxue couldn't let go of her longing for maternal love.
But he also knew that she had maturely hidden these emotions.
Qian Renxue's current state was definitely related to that black streak of light!
Qian Daoliu knelt down, gazing lovingly at Qian Renxue, "Xue'er, tell Grandpa everything, okay? What's wrong with you right now?"
He held her arms, trying to calm her down.
The last string in Qian Renxue's heart could no longer be held.
Qian Daoliu's gentleness finally gave her a place to pour out her long-suppressed emotions!
"Why!" Qian Renxue threw herself into Qian Daoliu's arms, sobbing uncontrollably.
Crystalline tears slid down her fair face, shattering on the floor of the Papal Palace.
"Why...why didn't she come to see me? Even just once!"
"It was such...such an important moment!"
"Does she hate me that much? Why?"
Her voice trembled as she spoke each word, expressing her sadness, disappointment, and incomprehension.
"I am her..."
"Shut up!" Qian Xunji snapped, interrupting Qian Renxue. "Have you forgotten how I taught you before?"
"As the heir of the Angel lineage, you shouldn't..."
"Hmm?" Qian Daoliu glanced at Qian Xunji, who immediately swallowed the rest of her words.
Those who hadn't gone out, including Serpent Spear Douluo and Porcupine Douluo, exchanged glances and silently left the Papal Palace.
Although they didn't know what the black light was, their young master was clearly unharmed.
The Pope and the Grand Elder were also nearby.
In this situation, their presence would be somewhat inconvenient.
"Father! You know, Xue'er must overcome this hurdle!" Qian Xunji asked, somewhat puzzled. Qian Daoliu had never interfered when he taught Qian Renxue this way before.
"Can't you see it?" Qian Daoliu's tone was unfriendly.
"What?"
Qian Daoliu snorted coldly, suddenly finding his son extremely displeasing. "How long has it been since Xue'er acted like this? This sudden change must be related to that black light!"
Qian Xunji was stunned.
He had been so focused on helping Qian Renxue break free from her dependence on her mother that he hadn't connected it to the black light!
"What exactly is that black light?" Qian Xunji's expression turned serious. "Why would it cause Xue'er to suddenly act like this?"
Qian Daoliu didn't answer. He gently placed his palm on Qian Renxue's back, soothing her tenderly.
At the same time, a stream of soul power entered Qian Renxue's body, probing her very carefully.
Qian Daoliu was also very eager to know what that black stream of light was all about.
Seeing this, Qian Xunji remained silent, quietly watching Qian Daoliu's actions.
"Hmm?" Qian Daoliu's eyes sharpened!
The soul power he had just injected into Qian Renxue's body had suddenly disappeared somewhat!
"What's wrong? Father!"
"Just now..."
Before Qian Daoliu could finish speaking, wisps of black soul power began to emanate from Qian Renxue's body!
The two of them frowned simultaneously.
The soul power of a six-winged angel soul master was always golden!
Qian Renxue was still immersed in her grief and did not notice this.
