Ran Away

The nights on Sea God Island were cold and damp.

Especially in Sea God Island Prison.

Tang Chen simply could not figure it out.

Fine, losing to Sea God Island's High Priest, Bo Saixi, was one thing.

But why could he not even beat seven people who were not Limit Douluo?

Those seven's Martial Soul Fusion Skill was actually not the least bit inferior to Bo Saixi!

Su Mutian could kindly answer that question for Tang Chen.

The Golden Iron Triangle, formed by the good-for-nothing Yu Xiaogang, the Spirit Sage Liu Erlong, and the Spirit Titled Douluo Flender, could make their combined Martial Soul Fusion Skill famous across the continent, feared even by Titled Douluo.

They could fight above their level.

And this was a seven-person Martial Soul Fusion Skill, with every one of them at least at the Titled Douluo level.

Was it too much for it to leave a Limit Douluo dumbfounded?

Not at all.

The concept of a Martial Soul Fusion Skill was never one plus one equals two.

It was surpassing.

Sea God Island's lineup of one plus seven would absolutely sweep through everything on the current Douluo Continent.

"Brother Chen?"

Qian Daoliu looked at Tang Chen staring blankly at the sky, as if doubting his life, and could not help asking.

"Qian Daoliu, tell me, is the Power of Gods truly that strong?"

Tang Chen suddenly said this, looking at Qian Daoliu with a puzzled question.

"Brother Chen, why would you ask that?" Qian Daoliu did not quite understand what kind of baffling remark Tang Chen had just made.

"I have always been chasing after the footsteps of gods. I thought I was only one divine estate, one God Position away from them, but today..."

After a long while, Tang Chen sighed deeply.

"The Power of Gods is insurmountable." Qian Daoliu also sighed deeply.

And so, the two brothers in misery huddled inside Sea God Island Prison.

Brother Tang Chen, you really knew nothing about the power of gods.

As a God Servant, Qian Daoliu was quite familiar with the Power of Gods.

In this world, there were only two categories:

Gods, and humans.

You could not pin your hopes on a low-dimensional creature going head-to-head with a high-dimensional being.

"Brother Tang Chen, from what I can see, this prison is simple in structure and ordinary in material."

With a ping, an inch-long burst of Soul Power shot from Qian Daoliu's fingertip and instantly severed the iron bars.

He said, "Look, I only used a little trick, and it broke.

It seems everyone on Sea God Island is powerful, but not too bright."

Qian Daoliu turned back and said, "Brother Tang Chen, let us return to the continent. Sea God Island is far too dangerous."

"I won't, I won't!"

Tang Chen sat cross-legged on the ground, looking utterly sullen.

"I refuse to believe I can't beat them!"

"Tang Chen..."

Qian Daoliu said helplessly, "The Power of Gods is not something mortals can resist. The people of Sea God Island are protected by the Sea God. Their strength is far from as simple as it appears."

"Eh? Qian Daoliu, as a God Servant, tell me from the bottom of your heart. Are gods truly not to be violated?"

Tang Chen rubbed his little hands together and frowned, somewhat doubting his own strength.

"I won't hide it from you. Recently, I've been thinking about a method to surpass myself.

In the end, I discovered that the only breakthrough point is spirit rings."

Tang Chen looked up, hoping Qian Daoliu would understand what he meant.

Aside from Bo Saixi, only Qian Daoliu existed on the same level as him.

He hoped Qian Daoliu would understand his idea.

But he was disappointed.

Qian Daoliu denied his view. "Impossible, absolutely impossible!

The Power of Gods can never be touched by mortals!"

"Only gods can oppose gods."

Qian Daoliu's voice trembled a little as he spoke.

Clearly, he had recalled the oppressive feeling he faced when a god descended, the kind that left him utterly unable to muster the strength to resist!

"Only gods... can oppose gods..."

Tang Chen carefully pondered those words. Then, with a clang, the entire Sea God Island Prison began to shake.

"Qian Daoliu, I will prove it to you. Relying on myself, I can also reach the Power of Gods!"

Tang Chen carried the Clear Sky Hammer, his desolate figure filled with unyielding conviction.

Inside Sea God Hall.

"Pop~"

Su Mutian's right eye twitched violently. In a moment of carelessness, the cup fell and shattered all over the floor.

"Holy crap, a bad omen!"

Sure enough.

Before nine breaths had passed after the cup shattered, Bo Saixi hurriedly appeared inside Sea God Hall.

"Young God..."

There was some self-reproach in that soft, beautiful voice, along with some vexation.

"What happened?"

Su Mutian frowned. "Did Tang Chen Explode Ring?!"

No, that wasn't right. He had not heard any sound.

Bo Saixi shook her head, just about to speak, only for Su Mutian to block her words again.

Su Mutian suddenly understood. "Tang Chen and the other one ran away?!"

"Mm..."

Bo Saixi felt somewhat ashamed.

The Young God had sensed from all the way over in Sea God Hall that those two despicable men had run away, yet she had only found out after someone reported it.

"I was careless."

Bo Saixi blushed and said, "The two of them are both Limit Douluo. Ordinary methods can't restrain them..."

Su Mutian slapped his forehead.

I was careless too.

Limit Douluo were the strongest in this world apart from gods.

Especially Assault System ones. If they fought with their lives on the line, nothing could imprison them.

What was he supposed to do now...

Now he had offended both Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen.

Holy crap!

In the original work, Tang Chen and Bo Saixi fought feelings into existence, so after leaving Sea God Island, he went home without mentioning a word.

Maybe he was worried his wife would get jealous and affect family harmony, so he secretly slipped off to search for a God Position, wanting to be with Bo Saixi.

But now, Tang Chen and Bo Saixi did not have that kind of feeling between them.

If Tang Chen went home and muttered a couple lines like these to his son and grandson:

"Not a single person on Sea God Island is any good."

"A bunch of shameless, despicable bastards live on Sea God Island."

If Tang San heard that later...

Su Mutian asked himself. Although he had appeared far too early and was not from the same era as Tang San,

he possessed demigod-level Soul Power and was also the host of several heaven-defying martial souls.

Aside from having to put some thought into becoming a god and gaining eternal youth, with Sea God Hall's protection, living a few hundred years would still be very easy.

And Tang San's birth was only around fifty years away. When the time came, he would still look like a young man.

It would still be a clash of dragon and tiger...

Right.

Su Mutian looked toward Bo Saixi with a complicated expression.

If he became a god, he still had to find a God Position for her.

After all, they had already hugged. Though Bo Saixi turned hostile and refused to acknowledge it, the first embrace was hard to forget.

Speaking of which, she was truly good to him.

Maybe she had sunk too deep into his looks?

I'm not some demon. It's not like I can't tell you like me.

However, during this period of Su Mutian's silence, his micro-expressions had been wonderfully varied.

From slightly surprised, to moody and uncertain, then tender and lingering, with a bit of lecherousness.

Bo Saixi was terrified.

"Young God, I can immediately send people to chase them down and bring them back. After all, this is the sea. There is still a chance..."

Bo Saixi said.

Clearly, she was worried Su Mutian was angry.

Aaaaah!

This was the first time the Young God had asked her to do something, and she had actually messed it up.

Simply unforgivable!

"Xi'er, no need."

Su Mutian thought it over.

Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen were still Limit Douluo, after all. Their hearts should not be that narrow.

But Bo Saixi needed some training.

Su Mutian beckoned to Bo Saixi. "Xi'er, come here."
