Tang San listened intently from the side.

Creation Force?

So the union of Life and Destruction could produce such power?

His only daughter, Tang Wutong, had rather ordinary talent. He had only managed to get her a God-level Martial Soul by pulling strings with the Butterfly God. She was simply incomparable to the newly born Zi Yao.

As everyone rejoiced over the birth of this new life,

the First Generation Evil God coldly reminded them, "Don't forget, this child carries the God King Origin of Destructive Life. Kindness and I can control it this time, but as he grows older, once the seal we set is broken, the consequences will be unimaginable."

The Life Goddess and the God of Destruction emerged from their brief warmth, their expressions turning grave.

Legend had it that the Creation God's power was divided into five parts.

Destruction and Life formed the heavens and earth that bore all things in the world.

Once those two powers fused, they would undoubtedly become part of Creation's authority—a power above that of a God King.

Even Destructive Life, despite having been together for years,

could not achieve a complete fusion of their Origin Power, much less a child.

"Could it be that this child's fate is still to die young..."

the First Generation Kind Goddess said sorrowfully.

Her dear old friend had finally managed to have a child, only to face such cruel circumstances.

"Our top priority now is to send him to the Lower Realm before his divine position stabilizes. Once he absorbs too much divine power and hastens the birth of his divine position, the consequences will be unimaginable."

the First Generation Evil God said flatly.

As the former God King of the God Realm Committee who had overseen thoughts and emotions, he handled matters with greater detachment and always prioritized the most suitable choice.

The First Generation Kind Goddess rolled her eyes and fiercely pinched him.

Life had just given birth, and he was already talking about sending her child away. He truly had no sympathy at all.

The Life Goddess pursed her lips and held Zi Yao tightly in her arms, her beautiful eyes lowered.

Zi Yao in her arms was also very nervous.

What was going on? They were saying I was going to die right after I was born?

Sent to the Lower Realm?

Which Lower Realm?

It couldn't be Douluo Continent, could it...

He thought it over carefully and decided that did not seem too bad.

The Child of Destiny had been born on Douluo Continent, Electrolux had descended, and there were the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, the Ice Snow Twin Empresses, and more. Opportunities were everywhere.

The God of Destruction and the Life Goddess certainly had powerful backing.

But Tang San's faction was not weak either.

If he simply sat and waited,

then after Tang San trained the Child of Destiny into his obedient dog, with powerful forces close to God King level like Rong Nianbing and Zhou Weiqing joining him, his faction would rise to an even greater level.

Gradually,

the newborn began to feel a little sleepy. After yawning, he slowly fell asleep.

When he groggily opened his eyes again, the other God Kings had already left.

What greeted his eyes was a little girl around six years old. A pinkish-blue bow was tied atop her head, and her tender, adorable face was rosy. She blinked her large eyes as she stared at Zi Yao.

"Auntie Green, is this my little brother?"

"Yes, his name is Zi Yao. He'll be your little brother from now on."

the Life Goddess said with a gentle smile.

Tang Wutong extended a finger and poked Zi Yao. His chubby cheeks felt like jelly, making her unable to resist reaching out with both hands to knead them.

Zi Yao waved his hands, trying to stop her, but his tiny arms only made him look cuter.

Fortunately, he quickly mastered the ultimate skill of being a baby.

"Waaah! Waaah! Waaah!"

The miserable cries left Tang Wutong frozen on the spot. She hurriedly pulled back her hands and said apologetically,

"Sorry, Auntie Green. He felt so nice that I might have hurt my little brother."

"It's fine. Maybe he's hungry."

The Life Goddess smiled softly and slipped off the strap of her green dress.

After eating his fill,

Zi Yao burped and gradually drifted back into sleep.

"Auntie Green, are Father and Uncle Zi discussing sending my little brother to the Lower Realm?"

Tang Wutong asked, her large eyes filled with curiosity.

"Yes. The power within him is the Origin Power of Destruction and me. It isn't something he can control at present."

The Life Goddess was clearly reluctant.

This was a child she had traded half her life for. The thought of him leaving her like this was truly unbearable.

But this was also Zi Yao's only chance of survival.

She raised her beautiful eyes toward the outside of the room and gave a soft laugh. "Come in. Stop eavesdropping outside."

The God of Destruction awkwardly walked inside, fidgeting as his face filled with guilt.

"I'm sorry, dear..."

Tang Wutong covered her mouth to suppress a laugh.

Still young, she could not understand an adult's pain. She merely found it amusing to see Uncle Zi, who had always been so lofty and overbearing, acting as shy as an unmarried young girl.

"You have nothing to apologize to me for. This is for our child's good as well."

the Life Goddess said gently. After giving Zi Yao one final look, she forced herself to remain calm as she handed the swaddled child to the God of Destruction, turning her head away so she would not look again.

The God of Destruction felt a jumble of emotions.

But things had come to this, and he could only promise to find the child a good home before hardening his heart and leaving.

The Life Goddess closed her eyes. Her shoulders trembled slightly as a tear rolled down her cheek.

"Auntie Green!"

Tang Wutong panicked.

"Xiao Wutong, I'm fine. I'm just... a little worried that Xiao Yao might be bullied in the Lower Realm." The Life Goddess hugged her tightly, using her to soothe the wound in her heart.

Seeing the Life Goddess, who had always treated her so well, so heartbroken,

Tang Wutong made up her mind.

In a few days, when her father was not paying attention, she would definitely sneak down to the Lower Realm and protect her little brother so Auntie Green would not be sad.

Extreme North,

Gales swept through the snow. The extreme cold was this land's natural barrier, and the Soul Master World called it one of humanity's three great forbidden zones.

Yet a human infant lay quietly in the most central region of the Extreme North. The blade-like cold winds were blocked by an invisible force.

"Hm, a human cub?"

The Snow Empress sensed an inexplicable fluctuation of energy outside her home. When she went out to investigate, she found a child standing motionlessly amid the wind and snow.

Curiously, she stepped forward and picked up the swaddling cloth. The child inside had red lips, white teeth, and an innocent, adorable face.

"Were human children this cute?"

The Snow Empress became a little interested and could not resist poking Zi Yao's chubby baby cheek.

Zi Yao was awakened. Before him stood an incomparably beautiful girl with a faint smile on her face. Her pure white eyelashes trembled lightly, while her sky-blue eyes were ethereal and clear. Every frown and smile was breathtakingly beautiful, as though everything in the world had been robbed of its splendor by her.

Snow Empress?

So I've... already arrived on Douluo Continent?

Seeing Zi Yao's purple eyes darting around, the Snow Empress soothed him.

"Little fellow, how did you get here?"

After a moment, she suddenly realized,

"Right, human children seem unable to speak yet. Who would have thought such a fragile race could drive naturally powerful Soul Beasts into such desperate straits?"

She carried Zi Yao into the cave.

Soon after, a girl in a green dress hurried over. Her beauty was in no way inferior to the Snow Empress's. Her golden eyes exuded dominance, yet she had the petite appearance of a twin-tailed loli.

"Xue'er, what happened here just now? Why did I sense such an unusual power?"

"I'm not quite sure either, but this child is likely the reason for that strange fluctuation."

the Snow Empress said while holding Zi Yao.

Seeing the child in the Snow Empress's arms, the Ice Empress curiously leaned closer.

"A human child? Where did you get him?"

"I picked him up at the cave entrance."

An unconsciously happy smile appeared on the Snow Empress's face.

The Ice Empress stood there in a daze.

After living together for so many years, she had only seen the Snow Empress smile a handful of times. Feeling somewhat amused, she gave a soft snort and said,

"You don't plan to keep him, do you? Don't you hate humans the most? Just send him back to a human city."

"If any Human Soul Master dares invade the Extreme North, I certainly will not spare them. But he is only an innocent child. None of humanity's sins have anything to do with him."

the Snow Empress said calmly.

After a pause, she continued, "Besides, this child gives me a very unusual feeling. He doesn't seem like an ordinary mortal, but more like a spiritual being of heaven and earth like me. Perhaps this is Heaven's compensation for my inability to bear children."
