The Reason Why

In fact, Zhou Huan didn't know the concept of Spirit of the Plane," but he did know about the " Master of the Plane."

In the era of Legend of the Dragon King, wasn't Tang Hao the Master of the Plane the Douluo Continent?

As for exactly when Tang Hao became the master of the Douluo Master of the Plane, Zhou Huan was not clear about that.

Regardless, becoming the Master of the Plane is no easy feat for Tang Hao. So, did he begin his efforts back in the era of the Peerless Tang Sect: The Peerless Tang Sect? Or perhaps even earlier?

The Sprite said she was Spirit of the Plane, and that Tang Hao wanted to kill her, so the answer is self-evident.

It's simply that if Tang Hao wants to become the master of the Douluo Master of the Plane, he must kill the original Master of the Plane, or rather, the Spirit of the Plane.

Of course, Zhou Huan couldn't figure out the relationship between the Master of the Plane and the Spirit of the Plane for the time being.

However, he soon heard the Sprite continue, "In fact, the Spirit of the Plane, which is me, should not exist."

Zhou Huan looked at the Sprite with some confusion. "Shouldn't exist? What do you mean?" Does that mean Tang Hao was right to kill you? Wouldn't I just be an innocent casualty?

Then, Zhou Huan saw this tiny creature, only three inches tall, look up at a forty-five-degree angle and sigh, "Alas, it's all tears when I think about it."

She was immediately slapped on the back of the head by Snow Empress: "Get to the point."

The Sprite, under the death stare of the Snow Empress, had no choice but to continue explaining, "The so-called plane is rather abstract. Let's take Douluo Star as an example. The movement of celestial bodies and the development of the world should have their own natural laws."

"But some people, no, they should be called gods, who refuse to follow the laws of nature and insist on controlling everything, turning Douluo Star into their private property."

"Simply put, they want to control the entire Douluo Plane and become its masters. When that happens, everything on Douluo Star will be under their control. They can decide who lives and who dies, and they can even kill you the moment you are born."

"But becoming the Master of the Plane is no easy feat."

"To become the Master of the Plane, one must seize and control its Plane Laws. The original Plane Laws naturally have no thought; they simply develop according to the established natural order, ensuring the plane functions normally."

"However, when someone tries to seize and control it, the Plane Laws naturally put up a corresponding resistance, and I am the intelligence born in this process of resistance, which can be called the Spirit of the Plane."

At this point, the Sprite's tiny face, barely two fingers wide, immediately showed an indignant expression, and she continued, "According to the rules of the natural universe, no Plane Laws should possess self-awareness, much less intelligence, yet I was still born."

"Because the rules of the Douluo Plane Laws discovered during their resistance that they were no match for a God Official with the help of a God King to seize and control it. Therefore, to prevent that God Official named Tang Hao from controlling the Douluo Plane, I was born, and I took away a portion of the Douluo Plane Laws, preventing him from truly controlling the plane."

"Therefore, I was forced into being born Spirit of the Plane."

"There shouldn't be any Spirit of the Plane in the first place, because as spirits, they naturally have their own independent thoughts. As long as they have independent thoughts, they will inevitably develop selfishness in the future, but the Plane Laws do not allow selfishness. Let alone a human or a god becoming Master of the Plane."

After listening to the Sprite's explanation, Zhou Huan and Snow Empress completely understood why Tang Hao didn't waste any words or even show his face before smashing Zhou Huan to death with a single blow.

However, Zhou Huan still had a few other questions in his mind, so he asked, "Does the Demon Empress know of your existence?"

Looking back now, the alliance the Demon Empress spoke of was not only directed at him, but also at the Sprite.

Sure enough, the Sprite nodded the next second. "After I was born, the first people I went to were naturally Tang Hao and that God King's enemies. After all, you humans also said that the enemy of my enemy is my friend."

"Having just developed sentience, I still don't understand many things. I only wanted to avoid Tang Hao's pursuit, and even helped the Demon Empress a lot because of it. Otherwise, how could she have become the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King so quickly and have her current strength?"

"However, I later discovered that the Demon Empress's thoughts were too extreme. She was willing to do anything for revenge. Not only did she get involved with the Holy Spirit Cult, but for some reason, she even made contact with the Abyss Plane."

"Obviously, Soul Beast like the Demon Empress wouldn't care about Plane Laws or Master of the Plane. If possible, she would even drag Douluo Star down with her enemies. So later, I left her."

Zhou Huan was speechless after hearing this, and thought to himself, "Your Spirit of the Plane is quite righteous, huh! It's just that you're a little dim-witted. Wait, if you're dim-witted, how did you manage to trick me?"

Damn it!

Suddenly, Zhou Huan felt completely awful.

However, now is not the time to pursue that. Zhou Huan continued, "So, why did you find me? And when did you become connected to my Martial Soul?"

Actually, what Zhou Huan wanted to ask was, "What does your being transmigrated to the Douluo Continent have to do with me?"

But he obviously couldn't ask so directly, because he wasn't sure if the Spirit of the Plane knew he had traveled from another dimension.

The Sprite replied, "Because you are special."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Huan raised an eyelid and said, "Extremely handsome?"

The Sprite immediately rolled her eyes at him, but still explained, "Because I still possess some of the rules of the Douluo Plane Laws, I just happened to discover that you are a variable, a variable that shouldn't have appeared in the Douluo Continent, but you still appeared."

"Even I couldn't see what was going on with you as a variable. So, when you awakened your Martial Soul at the age of six, I made a bold decision and fused it into your Second Martial Soul, the Floating Pagoda."

Zhou Huan's face twitched as he listened. You're really bold!

Did you even ask me? You're going to marry me... I mean, marry my Floating Pagoda!

So, it was because of your arrival that I had the "Path to Death"?

I used to think that my Floating Pagoda was so awesome because of you!

I believe that every gain comes with a price.

But now that you've explained it like that, I'm going to lose my temper. So all you've given me is a deadly Clear Sky Hammer, and nothing else?

Seemingly sensing Zhou Huan's unfriendly gaze, the Sprite quickly said, "Don't look at me like that. If I hadn't merged into your Floating Pagoda, would it be the Floating Pagoda it is now? At most, it would just be your mother's Three-Story Iron Pagoda. I even improved your Frost Spirit quite a bit. Otherwise, even if you have Twin Martial Souls, you would be the most useless Twin Martial Souls in countless millennia of the Douluo Continent, without exception."

Zhou Huan: "..."

Alright, if that's how you put it, I'll put down my forty-meter-long Emperor Sword for now.

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Huan continued, "So, what do you want me to do now?"

Upon hearing this, the Sprite clenched her tiny fist, her face serious and earnest, and said, "Of course, I want to get stronger quickly, then go back to Douluo Star, defeat Tang Hao, and restore the natural Plane Laws!"

Zhou Huan was speechless, but inwardly he was thinking, "If you're so arrogant, why don't you go and kill Tang Hao yourself?"

Seeing that Zhou Huan didn't speak, the Sprite continued to stir things up, "Anyway, if Tang Hao really becomes the master of the Douluo Master of the Plane, you're definitely not going to have a good time. I've explained everything I needed to. It's up to you what you choose to do now."

Zhou Huan glanced at the Sprite but remained silent, realizing that the little thing was actually playing the slacker card with him. Truly, the world was going to the dogs.

Then, Zhou Huan ignored the Sprite and turned to Snow Empress and Wang Qiu'er, asking sincerely, "I'm going out to find something to eat, do you want some?"

Snow Empress: "..."

Wang Qiu'er pouted and said, "What can a soul like me eat?"

Zhou Huan replied with a serious expression, "Isn't this just to appear more polite?"
