Douluo God Realm.
"Tang San, that hand of yours—you were planning to interfere with Douluo Continent. I'm not mistaken, am I?"
A handsome man with silver hair and purple eyes wore a large purple cloak resembling a wizard's robe. Nine purple halos hovered behind him.
He was gripping the hand of a blue-haired man. The man had delicate, refined features; unless you noticed his broad chest, you might not have realized he was male.
"God of Destruction, what are you doing here?" Tang San's expression was grim.
On Douluo Continent, the star of destiny he had his eye on had undergone an unexpected change, meeting prematurely with another star of destiny he had planned to scheme against until its death.
Their fates were intertwined, and Tang San certainly wouldn't allow that to happen.
A newborn destined to die, a dog who would sooner or later be put on a leash—both were trying to escape his schemes.
Tang San had been about to interfere, but then... God of Destruction. You've brought this upon yourself.
For now, though, the urgent thing was to placate this rigid fellow who only knew how to follow the rules of the Divine Realm.
"Answer my question. Were you planning to interfere with the lower realm?" God of Destruction asked coldly.
Tang San tried to pull his hand free, but God of Destruction gave him no chance. He stared at him ominously with those deep purple eyes.
Knowing that God of Destruction wouldn't let him off without a reasonable explanation, Tang San felt vexed.
How had he made such a rookie mistake?
"God of Destruction, you misunderstand. I had no intention of interfering in the affairs of the lower realm."
"Liar. You were already preparing to release your divine power. Do you take me for a blind man?" God of Destruction wasn't someone Tang San could casually fool.
"Then what do you want?"
"According to Article 265 of the Divine Realm's laws, anyone who interferes with the lower realm without a legitimate reason..."
"Will have all their authority in the Divine Realm stripped away, all their cultivation sealed, and be sent to the Divine Forbidden Land for a hundred years of reflection!"
"Come along, Sea God!"
A hundred years? By then, that rising star on Douluo Continent whom he'd taken an interest in would have become a God King!
Tang San said in a low voice, "Destruction, do you really have to be so heartless?"
"We are both among the Five Great God Kings of the Divine Realm. Shouldn't we stand by each other?"
"Do me a favor and let this one slide. I promise I'll never do it again."
"Oh, you reminded me. I nearly forgot." Deep purple light glimmered in God of Destruction's eyes.
"When an enforcer knowingly breaks the law, the punishment is multiplied tenfold!"
Suddenly, crimson radiance surged up like a sea of blood and a mountain of corpses. A killing intent that made heaven and earth tremble filled the air.
Asura God!
Dark purple and crimson light intertwined. God of Destruction and Tang San were both driven back dozens of meters.
God of Destruction's gaze was deep and cold. "The Asura God position... So you've chosen to defy my orders!"
Asura Tang San's aura was fierce and domineering. "God of Destruction, I have no intention of making an enemy of you."
"As long as you let this matter go, we can still live in peace with each other."
God of Destruction's expression did not change in the slightest. "I have nothing to discuss with someone who doesn't even know how to follow the rules."
Tang San sighed. "Then let's fight!"
A blood-red long sword appeared in Tang San's hand. He struck first, unleashing a streak of sword energy so cold it seemed to freeze the air.
Seeing Tang San actually dare to attack him, God of Destruction's anger reached its peak.
"Asura was like this, and those two—Good and Evil—were no different."
"If they didn't want to stay in the Divine Realm, they should at least have found worthy successors!"
"Otherwise, if they all choose people who casually interfere with the lower realm, who's going to keep order?"
"Destruction Divine Thunder!"
Purple-black lightning collided spectacularly with the blood-red killing sword energy.
The battle between God Kings had begun!
Inside a luxurious estate, in a secluded courtyard.
Before an ancient bronze mirror, a vertical eye opened on Huo Yuhao's forehead, shining like a brilliant ruby and surrounded by a golden glow.
The Eye of Destiny!
Huo Yuhao studied the eye on his forehead. He could feel the immense Power of Destiny radiating from it.
This Power of Destiny nourished his Sea of Consciousness and subtly affected his physique.
Huo Yuhao's consciousness sank into his Sea of Consciousness.
"Sister Tianmeng."
"Yuhao!"
As soon as Huo Yuhao entered, a chubby silkworm that looked like white jade eagerly pulled him into her embrace.
"We've hit the jackpot this time!" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's voice brimmed with excitement.
After struggling free, Huo Yuhao said, "Calm down, Sister Tianmeng!"
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm threw her head back and shouted, "I can't calm down at all!"
"Do you know how much we gained this time? First, your Sea of Consciousness expanded fivefold on top of the expansion I helped you achieve."
"Look at the ground beneath us!"
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm gestured for Huo Yuhao to look down with her chubby little hand.
Beneath them was a golden fluid, like a mirror, radiating a faint golden glow.
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said excitedly, "This is all Power of Destiny!"
"Yuhao, after I fused with you, I was actually exhausted."
"Your body is in pretty good shape, but I still had to set up layer upon layer of seals to keep you from being burst apart by me. It was a lot of work."
"But I never expected you to bring me such a wonderful surprise."
"The Power of Destiny has nourished me. Now I can stay awake whenever I want. Aren't you happy?"
"By the way, it must be inconvenient for me to talk to you like this, right?"
After Tian Meng finished chattering away, Huo Yuhao hadn't even had a chance to speak when dazzling platinum light burst from her.
A petite, adorable little girl with golden hair and eyes appeared. She wore a cute silkworm outfit and stood barefoot.
"Ta-da! How do I look? Aren't you completely bewitched by me, Yuhao?"
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm puffed out her chest, which was as flat as a plain, and posed smugly.
Huo Yuhao said helplessly, "Sister Tianmeng, I'm only six years old."
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm covered her mouth. "You don't have to be so shy. If I've got you swooning, just say it out loud. I won't laugh at you."
"Yuhao, you're a wonderful person, but unfortunately, I already have someone I like. Even if you like me, all I can say is, 'Sorry!'"
Huo Yuhao, who'd just been handed a good-person card out of nowhere, wondered: Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, are you even in your right mind?
"All right, let's talk about serious matters!" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm coughed a few times, her expression turning serious.
Watching Sky Dream Ice Silkworm change moods faster than one could turn a page, Huo Yuhao thought to himself, Who was the one showing off just now?
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm placed her delicate white hand on Huo Yuhao's shoulder.
"Yuhao, I don't know where the Power of Destiny in your body came from."
"But there's no doubt it's immensely beneficial to both you and me."
"With this Power of Destiny, once your cultivation reaches Level 20..."
"Our plan will have a much higher chance of success!"
"Maybe we really can reach the level that great person achieved ten thousand years ago."
Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow. "Level 100 Godhood!"
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm circled Huo Yuhao, crossing her arms over her flat chest.
"That's right. I'm even more confident now!"
"But there's still one problem: this gray little ball."
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm pointed a jade-white finger toward an inconspicuous gray ball among ten dazzling orbs as bright as the sun, suspended above Huo Yuhao's Sea of Consciousness.
