A Deal with Da Ming, You Chen's Deduction
"You are... that human!"
Da Ming looked horrified, his gaze towards You Chen filled with complex emotions.
With his sensory abilities, how could he not have noticed being so close?
At this moment, he gained a deeper understanding of You Chen's strength... This was definitely an unparalleled expert who could easily control them!
This situation only occurs when the gap in strength is so large that it is impossible to count.
"You damned human!"
Er Ming roared at You Chen, his teeth clenched and his face full of resentment. However, remembering Xiao Wu and Da Ming's instructions, he only roared and did not make a move.
You Chen didn't even glance at Er Ming, as if he didn't care about Er Ming's reaction at all; his eyes were only on Da Ming.
He smiled and said, "Now that you've confirmed my relationship with Xiao Wu, you should be relieved, right?"
Da Ming remained silent for a few moments before speaking, "Have you been watching us all this time?"
"Smart," You Chen praised.
The apprehension in Da Ming's eyes grew increasingly heavy.
He couldn't tell whether such a person was good or bad to Xiao Wu, but at least... so far, he hadn't shown any malice towards Xiao Wu.
Looking at Da Ming's complex Da Ming, You Chen frankly stated his purpose. "How have you considered the suggestion I gave you last time? With the secret technique I provided, Xiao Wu can normally avoid being discovered by those Titled Douluo when traveling in the human world. But even human Soul Master face risks when traversing the world. Xiao Wu and I have a good relationship, but I am not her nanny, and there is no reason for me to accompany her at all times. However, if you are willing to sacrifice yourself for me, I am willing to take care of her and protect her."
Er Ming's eyes widened, the goodwill he had felt towards You Chen from Xiao Wu's introduction vanished instantly. "Human, you actually still have designs on my elder brother?! You're asking for death!!!"
"Er Ming!"
Da Ming stopped Er Ming and looked at You Chen: "Powerful human Soul Master, no... You Chen, you may have misunderstood something. Er Ming and I do have a past with Xiao Wu, and we are as close as siblings, but that does not mean we are willing to give our lives for her."
Da Ming's statement was not a strategic retreat. The original text states that they were not prepared to sacrifice their lives for Xiao Wu, and that their love for Xiao Wu was not as strong as Tang San's.
From the author's perspective, this uses the tens of thousands of years of affection between the two Soul Beast as a foundation for Tang San's romantic feelings for Xiao Wu. However, in reality, this is just a common setting resulting from their different personalities.
Human nature is inherently different, and there are also differences in how people are perceived as romantically inclined.
Just as a filial son is willing to donate organs to save his mother and father, but cannot get along with his parents normally and is unwilling to stay by their side, another filial son often accompanies his parents and serves them diligently, but is unwilling to donate organs to save his mother and father.
Can we say that one person is more filial than the other? Of course not.
Human emotions and relationships are inherently difficult to quantify and judge in terms of quality.
Da Ming Er Ming felt that their feelings for Xiao Wu were not as deep as Tang San's Xiao Wu, but others might not think so.
You Chen wouldn't criticize them for this, saying anything like "tens of thousands of years of relationship is just this nonsense."
He smiled and said, "What if this is also an opportunity for you?"
With a thought, Sea Princess Li Na of the Sea appeared from her Soul Ring.
Both Da Ming Er Ming were startled when they sensed the faint aura of Ferocious Beast emanating from Li Na.
You Chen gently stroked Li Na's head and smiled, "What I told you last time, and what I told Xiao Wu, were not lies. Ordinary people... no, ordinary Soul Beast are not worthy of my attention."
Li Na proudly raised her head. "Junior, Master is destined to become a god. If you can become the true spirit of Master's Soul Ring through sacrifice, you can also enjoy the same godhood as Master. Such an opportunity is something that ordinary Soul Beast can only dream of. It's only because your attributes are somewhat useful to Master that you have this blessing!"
Watching Li Na, who was as docile as a cat, letting You Chen pet and play with her, and even proudly promoting the benefits of becoming You Chen's Soul Ring, Da Ming Er Ming felt as if they were in a dream.
No, this... senior? Isn't he Ferocious Beast? And judging from his aura, he's definitely not an ordinary Ferocious Beast of the 200,000-year level. Why is he acting so obsequious in front of this human Soul Master named You Chen?
For a moment, both beasts suddenly felt that You Chen had truly come to bestow blessings upon them, and that they would be ungrateful if they did not express their gratitude.
However, neither of the two beasts had experienced what Li Na had gone through, so they couldn't empathize with Li Na, and they also possessed the mindset and arrogance of super Soul Beast.
Er Ming, his face fierce, exhaled two streams of air from his nostrils and said in a deep voice, "You old woman, you're truly shameless! You've wasted hundreds of thousands of years of your life. To shamelessly fawn over humans like this, I, Er Ming ashamed to be a fellow Soul Beast with you!"
Li Na was once the ruler of the North Sea, Er Ming's simple provocation was not enough to make her angry.
Her spirit leaped about, her fishtail wrapped around You Chen 'You Chen waist, her chest resting on his head as if she were hanging from his upper You Chen. She looked at Er Ming with disdain. "Do gods care what ants think of them? What does it matter to me if you're ashamed to be associated with me? By the time I become an immortal divine beast and roam the heavens with my master, you'll probably already be ashes from the heavenly tribulation, right? Seeing how pitiful you are, I'll let you be smug for now."
As she spoke, she leaned down slightly and hugged You Chen's head and neck, her breath sweet as orchids. "Master, isn't Li Na very compassionate Kindness God King?"
You Chen nodded in deep agreement and said, "This guy is just a brainless idiot, there's really no need to bother with him. It's like a fool has good luck."
"Aaaaaah!!! You adulterers, you're infuriating!!!"
Er Ming was furious, but it was no use, because he was quickly suppressed by his elder brother Da Ming with a look.
Da Ming watched as You Chen and Li Na flirted and teased each other in front of them without any concern. Seeing that You Chen didn't seem to care much about the difference between Soul Beast, his trust in him increased slightly. However, when he thought of Xiao Wu, a sinister look flashed in his eyes.
'This You Chen, he already has Sister Xiao Wu, why is he still flirting around like this?'
If he could beat You Chen, he would definitely teach You Chen a lesson.
Thinking this, Da Ming suddenly remembered that You Chen was not like them, swayed by Xiao Wu's charm. Otherwise, why would he have proposed a deal under the pretext of protecting Xiao Wu?
He couldn't help but feel a little anxious for Xiao Wu.
He wasn't Er Ming or idiot who couldn't see Xiao Wu's feelings for You Chen.
But what about the reverse? He couldn't tell if You Chen was the kind of person who valued profit over emotion, or if he simply had no feelings for Xiao Wu.
However, if things continue like this, it's certain that You Chen won't pay enough attention to Xiao Wu.
"I can promise you..."
Da Ming finally made a decision. His eyes were firm as he said, "But you must do your best to nurture Sister Xiao Wu."
Da Ming's idea was simple: by becoming You Chen's Soul Ring, he would naturally increase the importance of Xiao Wu's family, and by having You Chen nurture Xiao Wu, he could create more opportunities for the two of them to spend time together.
If Da Ming were to completely sacrifice himself, he couldn't do it, but he could also gain opportunities and benefits. So, naturally, he had no reason to refuse the matter of becoming You Chen Soul Ring.
Based on this, he naturally wanted to do everything he could to give Xiao Wu an advantage.
Even if... it means pushing Xiao Wu into someone else's arms.
Pain!
Making this decision caused Da Ming great pain, but at the same time, he felt a sense of satisfaction and joy.
You Chen's expression was somewhat strange.
He could understand the martyr mentality of the Da Ming, but he would definitely refuse to be a sycophant.
"Then the deal is done. However, I don't want you to sacrifice yourself now. I will come back when I need you."
After making this agreement, You Chen bid farewell to Da Ming Er Ming.
As for what Da Ming wanted, he intended to cultivate this kind of relationship and create scenes of the two of them alone together...
It can only be said that Da Ming's vision was ultimately limited to the world of Soul Beast, and he did not know that under the current reasonable training regulations of the Beast Soul Alliance, Xiao Wu could be put on a fast track of development without You Chen's intervention.
This process didn't even require You Chen to appear.
In fact, not long after Xiao Wu left the Star Dou Great Forest and returned to the human city...
The Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce Guild arranged a coincidental opportunity for Xiao Wu, allowing her to join the guild through her own merits.
The simple-minded Xiao Wu had no idea that her experiences were all designed and arranged by someone, and that's how the development of "Douluo Socialite Starting as a Front Desk Girl at the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce" began.
But that's a story for another time.
Having completed these matters in the Star Dou Great Forest, there was nothing for You Chen to personally handle or pay special attention to in the short term.
Thus, You Chen finally returned to a time when he could devote himself entirely to cultivation.
In fact, during this period of great change in the outside world, You Chen never stopped cultivating, but he only paid attention to the outside world with a part of his mind, so he could not be said to be 100% devoted to it.
With the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, You Chen never neglected his cultivation of the Godly Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength. As he refined the Immortal Spiritual Energy, although he still hadn't obtained the opportunity to break through to the Primal Elephant Chapter, his understanding of this divine skill continued to grow stronger.
In fact, long ago, before he broke through to the Titled Douluo level, he had already reached the threshold of diving into this lake to refine Immortal Spiritual Energy.
The reason they don't come here to cultivate, but instead use basic resources like Soul Beast to cultivate, is simply to increase the utilization rate of advanced resources like Immortal Spiritual Energy.
Even if the Dragon Elephant Chapter are only at the level of mortals and do not reach the level of Immortal Spiritual Energy will not be lower than those of ordinary God Officer.
However, it is far inferior to the Primal Elephant Chapter.
This Immortal Spiritual Energy may seem boundless and endless, but in reality, it is a limited resource that ordinary people cannot reach.
You Chen's goal is to complete the Primal Elephant Chapter in this lower realm, in order to approach the physical cultivation level of a God-King.
This is an extremely high goal.
Even though the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is a place of creation formed by the fall of two great dragon kings, whether it can guarantee that this goal will be achieved is still uncertain.
Since the upper limit of Immortal Spiritual Energy cannot be clearly estimated, it is natural to conserve resources as much as possible.
The difficulty of getting started with each chapter is only slightly below perfect.
Therefore, even though You Chen has been cultivating at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for several months, he still hasn't been able to complete the initial stage of the Primal Elephant Chapter.
But You Chen was not in a hurry; instead, he gradually shifted his focus to other areas.
However, in terms of body refinement, there is a tendency to pursue a natural approach.
When Poseidon, the Sea God, made a deal with him, he didn't initially realize that something was wrong with the attitude he subtly revealed.
But after so much time has passed, he has come to his senses.
The biggest problem with Poseidon is that he wasn't tempted to inherit the Sea God Godhood, but was only asked to resolve the crisis on the Sea God Island.
This seems normal to ordinary people, but considering the Sea God's intention to relinquish his divine position, it just doesn't make sense.
Most importantly, with such a promising talent as him, Poseidon couldn't possibly not even consider giving it a try.
Even if the hope seems slim due to previous conflicts, even if the real purpose is to get him to resolve the crisis on Sea God Island, the temptation of a divine position can still steer the conversation towards resolving the crisis on Sea God Island, and without revealing the true intentions first, there will be more room for negotiation.
After all, if You Chen wants to become the Sea God, he naturally has to solve the crisis on Sea God Island.
This kind of probing is always a win-win situation.
Given Poseidon's shrewdness and audacity, there was no reason not to do so.
The only reason he wouldn't do that would be that such behavior was explicitly forbidden by his superiors.
Once You Chen understood this, he would realize that he was already under the scrutiny of the God Realm Committee, and all those Douluo fanfics he read would have been for nothing.
With this perspective, and by putting yourself in their shoes, it's easy to think of the crucial juncture of the Class of '99.
'In other words, until my cultivation reaches level 99 and I experience the same yearning as most Limit Douluo godhood and breaking through bottlenecks, they probably won't interfere with my actions too much?'
This is a very easy-to-understand line of thinking.
Given the arrogance of the gods, it would be impossible for them to imagine that You Chen could complete the process of faith and become a god in just a few years.
One day in the Divine Realm is equivalent to one year in the mortal realm.
Rather than obsessively monitoring every minute and second of the changes over several days, it is certainly more convenient and will better highlight their importance when You Chen reaches a bottleneck and then they appear as deities.
Therefore, attracting the attention of the gods does not mean that You Chen has to be restrained; on the contrary, it brings a relatively stable and safe period.
During this period, there is no need to worry too much about divine intervention or mechanical deity removal.
Therefore, instead of rushing to improve his strength, You Chen should take advantage of this relatively stable period in both the upper and lower realms to properly consolidate his abilities.
During this period, besides the steady improvement in his Divine Sense and Soul Power, his biggest breakthrough and gain was related to Ye Lingling.
Of course, this all stems from the knowledge that Poseidon, the Sea God, passed down to him.
Previously, You Chen had been very curious about how Ye Lingling's Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul was limited to only one case in the entire Douluo, came about.
After acquiring the knowledge of the Sea God, he obtained an important piece of information related to it— Rule Permission.
