"..."
"I was just passing by. My spirit ability evolved by accident and went out of control. That's all."
Su Mutian casually found an excuse.
The elder shook her head. "I doubt you were just passing by. This old woman sensed someone following us long ago.
"Your Excellency, what exactly are you here to advise us on?"
Who was he trying to fool?
Would someone just passing by suddenly break through?
No—suddenly reveal his martial soul?
It was obvious he had come for their Sea Charm Tribe.
This old woman was no fool. Why treat her like an idiot?
"Who cares? Let's catch him and take him back to the clan grounds first."
The girl called Bei'er twisted her body, her graceful figure matching her martial soul almost perfectly.
If she wrapped herself around someone's waist, it would be enough to make them lose all restraint and feel like they were floating among the clouds.
The only question was what she looked like.
But those enchanting eyes beneath the mask seemed to speak of her beauty.
The people of the Sea Charm Tribe were indeed as tempting as spirits when they were young.
But when they grew old, they were as frightening as monsters.
Whether it was the Sea Charm Tribe's chief, or the two Sea Charm Tribe elders before him.
All of them were like this.
"Bei'er!"
The old woman whom Bei'er called great-grandmother stopped Bei'er, who wanted to rush up and fight Su Mutian for another three hundred rounds.
Her eyes narrowed. "Come back. You are no match for him."
"But he's only a little Spirit Master. Even the cooks in the clan are stronger than him!"
Bei'er pointed at Su Mutian, utterly unable to believe it.
She was a Spirit King, while her opponent was only a Spirit Master.
Although she admitted that this Spirit Master was no ordinary Spirit Master and was impossible to figure out.
His level was right there for all to see.
He had only one spirit ring, and it was even a white ring.
There was no way she could lose to him!
Otherwise, it would overturn her entire worldview!
Just imagine.
A primary school student suddenly ran over to discuss the financial world and quantum physics with you, then ended by punching your dog eyes out. How would you feel?
No doubt about it.
You would definitely start doubting the world.
This was also because the Sea Charm Tribe Saintess was too young.
She acted impulsively when something happened.
It was still that great-grandmother who narrowed her eyes at Su Mutian and said:
"No matter what Your Excellency's purpose was in following us, today's matter is a private affair between us and him. If you insist on interfering, then you will be making an enemy of my Sea Charm Tribe!"
The moment he heard this.
Su Mutian understood that the other party was giving him a way out.
Only then did he feel a tiny bit relieved.
Originally, he had thought a great battle today would be unavoidable.
And that he might even go west again.
(Poor clone, three seconds of silence.)
"Elder, you misunderstand."
This had been a misunderstanding to begin with.
At first, Su Mutian really had not known they were tracking Tang Chen.
Otherwise, Su Mutian would never have come to wade into these muddy waters!
After all, being the schemer behind the scenes was the safest.
Heh heh.
Su Mutian cupped his hands. "I bear no ill will toward the two elders, nor toward the entire Sea Charm Tribe. I have merely long heard that the Sea Charm Tribe lives near the sea.
"Curious in my heart, I could not help following you here."
"If that is the case, then good. Once this old woman captures that scoundrel, I will invite the young hero to visit the Sea Charm Tribe grounds. As long as the young hero does not interfere in this matter, this old woman will be endlessly grateful."
The old woman bowed slightly to Su Mutian. Her attitude looked sincere; she truly did not wish to make another enemy.
But the Sea Charm Tribe Saintess was dissatisfied instead. "Great-grandmother, the clan rules say that outsiders are not allowed to enter the clan grounds."
"Ah." The old woman glanced at Bei'er reproachfully.
This great-granddaughter of hers was far too willful. Fortunately, she had followed her here, or else Bei'er would have caused trouble again.
Who knew how many hidden and slumbering experts lived in this world? Since the other party's strike possessed a trace of divine might, that meant he was no ordinary person.
Making friends was always safer than making enemies.
Immediately, Su Mutian let out a breath of relief.
When he had swung his sword just now, it had faintly stirred the Soul Power of his clone into surging out.
Although the Soul Power of his martial souls did not interfere with each other.
The clone's Soul Power could not be used on the Chaos Divine Sword, but it could be used for ordinary leaps and dashes.
So, his attack had seemed to only use his First Spirit Ability.
But in reality, only those with sharp eyes could tell that his starting motion, speed, and agility were in no way weaker than a Titled Douluo's.
Perhaps Su Mutian's own understanding of his Clone Spirit had still not reached the pinnacle.
Coupled with the divine sword's Soul Power being too low, it had led to a lack of strength afterward.
Otherwise, that one sword would already have taken the Sea Charm Tribe Saintess's life.
"Hmph!"
Bei'er snorted at Su Mutian. This grudge was now set.
As for the two Sea Charm Tribe elders, they shifted their focus back onto Tang Chen.
"Beast!"
The elder looked at Tang Chen and said, "I know you have already become the titled Clear Sky Douluo. A Titled Douluo under sixty years of age is an extremely rare existence across the entire continent.
"Although this old woman is only an eighty-eighth-rank Spirit Titled Douluo, even if I die here on Sea Trade Island, I will never let you leave safely.
"My Sea Charm Tribe and you will never coexist!"
The old woman's coral cane struck the ground, and sunflowers bloomed one after another, gradually forming an enormous sunflower domain.
"Martial Soul Avatar!"
Reflected in Tang Chen's eyes, a massive sunflower appeared behind the old woman. The mouth of the sunflower wriggled strangely, as if it wanted to eat someone.
Immediately afterward, the other elder also revealed her Martial Soul Avatar.
"Charm Eel True Body!"
The Charm Eel crackled with electricity all over, and gray-black Soul Power spread out, making people's hearts tremble with fear.
"It's the Martial Soul Avatars of two Spirit Titled Douluo!"
"I'll observe two minutes of silence for this brother. He actually provoked the Spirit Titled Douluo elders of the Sea Charm Tribe!"
"Forget it, forget it. Your realm isn't high enough. Didn't you hear that dead old hag from the Sea Charm Tribe say that man is a Titled Douluo?"
"Titled Douluo!"
"Pfft—!"
The speaker was pierced through the heart by a sunflower petal and died.
"Tang Chen truly does not understand!"
Tang Chen stepped forward and looked straight at the Martial Soul Avatars of the two Spirit Titled Douluo as he said:
"Back then, it was your Sea Charm Tribe who wanted to separate Luo'er and me. Where was I wrong? Luo'er and I truly loved each other, and it was you who tore us apart.
"You said the Sea Charm Tribe could not be without its saintess, so she had no choice but to leave me under your pressure.
"I have never understood. To you, is love truly nothing more than a stepping stone to a position?"
"Bah!"
The elder spat fiercely. "You left our Luo'er neither alive nor dead, and even made her bear a child, yet you still have the nerve to speak so shamelessly here and put on that hypocritical act.
"I refuse to believe that you truly don't know the good deed you did yourself!"
"He tui!"
Boom—!
Then, a giant eel transformed into a falling meteor and shot like a laser toward Tang Chen.
Tang Chen was completely dumbfounded now.
His mind was filled entirely with the Sea Charm Tribe elder's words.
I didn't even know about the seed I planted myself...
I didn't even know about the seed I planted myself...
I didn't even know about the seed I planted myself...
Luo'er had gotten pregnant and even given birth.
Given birth!
The giant eel slammed directly into Tang Chen's body, sending up a great cloud of mist.
Su Mutian nearly laughed himself to death when he saw Tang Chen's stunned expression.
Didn't expect that, did you?
There's an even bigger surprise waiting later!
Your son is in my hands.
Hee, hee hee.
Amid the destruction, Tang Chen was covered in dust, yet his back remained proudly straight.
"Please enlighten me, Grandmother. Where are Luo'er and that child now?"
