My Beast Is the 12-Winged Angel Chapter 473 - 474: Siblings Reunited!

Upon hearing Feng Ni's declaration, Gu Xing offered her another deep bow.

Regardless of the circumstances, the fact that Feng Ni was prepared to assist provided the Human Race with their most significant pillar of support. Consequently, he treated her with the highest level of reverence.

However, Feng Ni wasn't finished speaking. "Since we have committed to challenging the Demon God, we should strive to improve our odds of success," she added.

Her focus shifted toward the Guardian Beasts standing behind Gu Xing.

"Among your companions..." she began, "that Angel and the member of the Ghost Race have already claimed a Divine Position, haven't they?"

Even though Gu Xing had instructed his two Guardian Beasts to fully mask their auras as world rulers, it was impossible to deceive Feng Ni, an existence who had lived for tens of thousands of years.

In truth, Gu Xing had no intention of keeping it a secret. "That is correct," he admitted.

Feng Ni nodded at his confirmation. "A Divine Position can only be obtained through two paths: by seizing control of an entire world, or by receiving an inheritance from a supreme being. It appears your Guardian Beasts followed the first path."

As she spoke, a hint of emotion colored her voice. Back when she was merely a Spiritual Beast, she had scoured the lands for any trace of a Divine Position. She had even attempted to dominate the Alternate Space itself.

Ultimately, those efforts ended in total failure. Later, she was tainted by Demonic Qi and ascended to the Pseudo-God level, which permanently disqualified her from ever holding a true Divine Position.

Now, she was looking at three such positions. Her eyes locked onto Gu Xing. This human had been the first to secure one! Observing that he possessed three Divine Positions, even she felt a flicker of jealousy. She had once been hailed as a Spiritual Beast blessed by the heavens, yet she felt insignificant compared to this human.

Gu Xing was confused by her sudden interest in the topic until she asked, "Have you considered helping your Elf obtain a Divine Position as well?"

Gu Xing looked at Vera, following Feng Ni's gaze. Naturally, he desired a Divine Position for Vera, but there were no worlds left to conquer.

He had previously hoped the Elf Clan's Secret Realm might suffice. However, Vera had explained that the Secret Realm was not a fully realized world. Unlike the Angel Race or the Ghost Race, the Elves did not have another realm to call their own. Thus, Gu Xing believed there were no other options available for her.

He relayed these concerns to Feng Ni, but she simply shook her head in disagreement.

"You are mistaken," she corrected. "I am not suggesting you find a new world to conquer. Rather, your Guardian Beast brings a certain deity to mind. A true god!"

Gu Xing was stunned. A god? He had heard from the Dragon Emperor that there were no true gods in the Alternate Spaces, only Pseudo-God level powerhouses.

Noticing his bewilderment, Feng Ni clarified, "While he is indeed a god, he is one whose life is nearing its end. You should take your little elf and test your luck. Perhaps she can receive the inheritance of his Divine Position."

Gu Xing’s pupils contracted at the suggestion. While he hadn't expected all his Guardian Beasts to reach such heights, he would certainly fight for the chance. If Vera could obtain a Divine Position, their chances of success would increase exponentially.

"Senior Feng Ni, please guide me!" he requested.

"The World Tree!" she replied.

The name immediately brought to mind that massive, overwhelming presence that seemed to hold up the heavens. Was the World Tree a Divine Level being? Upon reflection, it made perfect sense. How could something that sustained an entire world be anything less?

"Go and try. He doesn't have much time remaining," Feng Ni urged. "If he chooses to pass his Divine Position to this girl, it would be the ideal conclusion."

Gu Xing nodded. With only one day remaining before their mission began, he immediately led his Guardian Beasts to the entrance of what was once the Ascension Realm.

Since Gu Xing had cleared the Ascension Realm, it had become a training ground for the Human Race to boost their Attributes. Many of the younger generation were gathered there now.

The person currently maintaining order at the site was Gu Qianqian. During the invasion of Blue Star, her Guardian Beast had been slain by the Demon Race, causing her Level to drop drastically. She had only recently managed to claw her way back to the Commander Level.

Due to her connection to Gu Xing and special oversight from Long Zhenguo, she had been assigned to manage the Ascension Realm.

At that moment, Tang Xinrou nudged a distracted Gu Qianqian. "Qianqian, what's wrong? Thinking about my husband again? Honestly, he’s lived up to his reputation; he hasn't come back to see you once since leaving Blue Star! He deserves a thrashing. Next time you see him, you should really show him who’s the elder sister!"

Tang Xinrou continued her relentless critique of Gu Xing. Gu Qianqian’s mouth twitched. Tang Xinrou persisted in calling Gu Xing her "husband" despite being told repeatedly to stop. Eventually, Gu Qianqian had simply given up on correcting her.

Just as Gu Qianqian was about to defend her brother, Tang Xinrou shouted, "Whoa! My husband!"

Gu Qianqian prepared to scold her for being so fickle, but when she turned around, she froze. Standing there was a very familiar figure.

Gu Xing wore a sheepish grin. "Sis! It’s been a while."

He felt a pang of guilt. Though he had been incredibly busy, he knew he should have made time to visit her. Behind him, Liu Li, Qing Shuang, Vera, and the others stood respectfully. They knew this woman was Gu Xing's true guardian.

Tears filled Gu Qianqian's eyes. She bit her lip, noticing his translucent appearance. "Xiaoxing... what happened to you?" she asked, her voice shaking.

Gu Xing realized she was worried about his Soul Body. He quickly explained the situation. Relieved to hear he was maintaining the form on purpose, she quickly swapped her worry for a stern expression.

"Tell me, are you here on official business?"

Gu Xing rubbed the back of his head awkwardly. "I am, but I didn't realize you were stationed here. My business can wait a moment for you."

Gu Qianqian rolled her eyes at his charm. "Stop playing around. Do you actually have time?"

"Two hours should be plenty," he smiled.

"Of course it is!"
