Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler
chapter-166

--- Chapter 166 ---

"Nice to meet you, Irregular." The angel gently smiled while looking at the young man in front of her.

The angel god or god of angels is divine existence with the authority of four-dimensional force, which above the grasp mere mortals.

That's why gods couldn't stay in their homeworld because their very own existence basically destroyed everything there.

It may not sound typical, but even gods themselves couldn't directly interfere with mortal's problems because the world they visited would be doomed.

However, with an indirect move like searching for their candidate inheritor, they'd be able to interfere with a mortal world slightly with limitations.

'Even myself as the first-class god wasn't an exception for this...' The angel god thought while looking at Yunlong, who gazed at her with a neutral expression.

'Well, It couldn't be helped because there is no way I'd not be interested in such a specimen.' She gradually continued.

Yunlong suddenly opened his mouth and commented, "You're different."

"Eh?" The angel god tilted her head in confusion and realized what this young man meant in a moment.

She heartily laughed and answered, "That was nothing but just a speck of my true will. It doesn't even have my full power."

"Of course, I only use it for signal purposes in case a sudden inheritor qualifies to enter my trials." She casually added like splitting one's will is an easy job.

"Then... Possessing my sister is also part of your work?" Yunlong suddenly asked, which caused the angel god to frown.

"Not really?" The angel god responded with a confident tone.

She slowly looked back at Yunlong and noticed his eyes had changed, which faintly released the heavy spiritual energy.

'Hmm, Just what kind of god's eyes did he possess...' The angel god thought while looking at Yunlong's eternal mangekyou sharingan, which reminded her of a particular god.

The angel god released a sigh because she couldn't put her hand on the information she wanted to remember as the god who had these kinds of eyes perished a very long time ago.

"This made me remember that war." The angel god muttered while thinking about the war between beast gods and human gods.

She shook her head and decided to overthink this because there is no point in doing so. "... Calm down. I won't do anything to your sister." She calmly stated.

"She's indeed a good inheritor but compared to you. She was nothing."

Yunlong frowned slightly and deactivated his eternal mangekyou sharingan. "What do you want?" He asked while creating a chair out of nowhere.

The angel god's eyes widened for a moment because Yunlong seemed to have a clue about this space.

'A mortal shouldn't be able to sense my spiritual domain, but he actually used his own spiritual domain to form such a defense, impressive!' The angel god sensed a fluttering spiritual force coming out of Yunlong's eyes.

She couldn't help but find this mortal far more interesting than before, which probably led her to become curious about this young man's secret later on.

"Ehem... As you already know." The angel god coughed. "The god realm suddenly has been sealed away by an unknown force."

"However, You're irregular with a powerful soul and an unknown god's eyes, which is probably one of the keys."

"One of the keys?" Yunlong responded with a doubtful tone.

"Mm, That's why my will declared the asura god's inheritance abruptly has been corrupted, which is another key because asura god is one of the god-kings." The angel god showed him a silhouette of a tall-looking man with a scarlet sword in his hand.

The man suddenly moved his gaze to Yunlong and pointed his scarlet sword at him, which released a mighty sword intent even though the person itself wasn't here.

"Amazing, right?" The angel god casually swayed her hand, and the silhouette disappeared from their views. "When you inherit his position, you'd be able to open the god realm."

"I see... Then, why don't you ask his help to open the god realm?" Yunlong quickly asked, which caused the angel god to shake her head in defeat.

"That annoying man wasn't in his position for years, same with the sea guy. They seemed to have traveled through the universe until they forgot to come back." The angel god's forehead twitched in annoyance.

"If you inherited his position as the asura god. He'll be noticed like when your sister qualifies to become my inheritor." She continued while looking at Yunlong's face.

Yunlong considered this as two probability, which is trap or cooperation and not in between because he couldn't trust this woman by any means at the moment.

"Fine..." Yunlong responded with a nod.

The angel god cheerfully smiled and violently shook his hand. "I'll give you a gift." She said with a determined tone.

--- In Real World ---

Yunlong opened his eyes and saw Qian Renxue's face, which caused him to wonder for a moment. "Big sister?"

"What happened?" He asked while looking around and saw Qian Daoliu stared at him with a solemn expression.

"You suddenly passed out! I'm so worried, you know." Qian Renxue replied with teary eyes.

Yunlong slightly wiped the tears off her eyes and softly whispered, "Don't worry, nothing happened."

"Really?" Qian Renxue asked with a still worried expression.

"Mhm." Yunlong nodded his head and gave her a reassuring smile.

Qian Daoliu approached them and focused his gaze on Yunlong's forehead, where he could see a crimson sun symbol.

"As I expected, the red level, but it seemed stronger than what I had experienced in the past." Qian Daoliu commented while closing his eyes a little.

"What's your task?" He asked, which caused Yunlong to smile a little.

"Assist my sister, that's all," Yunlong answered while shrugging his shoulders.

"Eh?"

A few minutes later, after he briefly explained his task was to Qian Daoliu, Yunlong stood in front of heaven's stairs with Qian Renxue.

Yunlong grasped Qian Renxue's hand and softly muttered, "Let's go, Renxue."

Qian Renxue nodded her head, and they walked on the heaven stairs together, which started the first trial.

"690th steps, here we go...!"
