With his own father as an example, Tang San naturally followed in his footsteps. At just six years old, he was already sharing a bed with Xiao Wu, a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast who had taken human form.

By then, Tang Hao had already broken through to the Titled Douluo level, so he must have discovered Xiao Wu's identity. But I suspect Tang Hao kept quiet because he hoped Xiao Wu would eventually become Tang San's Soul Ring and Soul Bone. He just didn't expect their relationship to grow so close so quickly.

Of course, Xiao Wu did eventually become Tang San's Soul Ring.

[For some reason, Tang San and Xiao Wu were separated. Xiao Wu had no choice but to return to the Star Dou Great Forest, while Tang San went away to cultivate with his father. When his training was finally over and he set out to find Xiao Wu, he ran into Spirit Hall's operation targeting hundred-thousand-year Soul Beasts.]

[At the crucial moment, Xiao Wu chose to sacrifice herself for Tang San, becoming his sixth Soul Ring, a hundred-thousand-year one. Naturally, Tang San himself didn't want his beloved to leave him like that.]

[And so, our God King Tang went through countless hardships and finally gathered everything needed to revive Xiao Wu. He came to the Star Dou Great Forest and, under Da Ming and Er Ming's watchful gazes, shouted that classic line.]

[RISE-FROM-THE-DEAD-MY-BELOVED!]

Wang Dong'er's lips twitched as she read this.

For some reason, the moment she saw those words, an image had already appeared in her mind. Tang San was gazing tenderly at Xiao Wu's body, then calling out the line with deep feeling.

Uh...

How should she put it?

It was a little moving, perhaps, but mostly, Wang Dong'er felt embarrassed.

Yes, embarrassed.

Those words really did sound inexplicably cringe when shouted aloud.

[Oh, right. It's worth mentioning that Da Ming and Er Ming were a hundred-thousand-year Sky Azure Bull Python and a hundred-thousand-year Titan Giant Ape, respectively. The two were known as the Star Dou Great Forest's "Sleeping Dragon and Young Phoenix," and eventually became Tang San's Soul Rings, too.]

[Of course, our innocent and noble Tang San didn't want them to become his Soul Rings, so after becoming a god, he revived them and made them the Clear Sky Sect's Sect Master Niu Tian and Vice Sect Master Tai Tan.]

Wang Dong'er's breathing suddenly quickened.

Other owners of diary copies might not have reacted to this, but Wang Dong'er understood everything now.

No wonder Uncle Niu Tian and Uncle Tai Tan, who had always doted on her, had so forcefully insisted that she attend Shrek Academy in boys' clothes... When she'd read the diary before, she'd only had a suspicion.

But now she finally understood. Her so-called uncles were nothing more than Sea God Tang San's lackeys!

So... there was no way she could return to the Clear Sky Sect.

Even with the reward that could hide her from Tang San's perception, he might still be able to use Niu Tian and Tai Tan to find out where she was and what she was doing.

[All in all, before becoming a god, Tang San had a few questionable points, but they were mostly within the bounds of normal. But after becoming a god, I can sum him up in just two words.]

[Complete scum.]

[He plotted to turn the entire Douluo Continent into his own private garden. He set his sights on the Soul Beasts' destiny—the Imperial Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. He also had his eye on the true Child of Destiny, Huo Yuhao.]

[He arranged for Huo Yuhao and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion to meet, then seized the opportunity to place part of his daughter inside the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's body and continually intensify her curiosity about the outside world.]

[The Three-Eyed Golden Lion left the Star Dou Great Forest and came to Shrek Academy as Wang Qiu'er, where she found herself by Huo Yuhao's side. There, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's hazy feelings began to blossom, eventually leading her to sacrifice herself for Huo Yuhao.]

[With that, Tang San completed his plunder of the Soul Beasts' destiny.]

[Afterward, Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er were fused together, and she became Tang San's daughter, Tang Wutong, once more.]

[Miss Wang Dong'er is charming, and Wang Qiu'er is great in her own way. But Tang Wutong, the combination of Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er? All I can say is, she's an utter disaster, with not a shred of personal charm.]

[If not for Tang San, with the destiny Huo Yuhao carried, he might not have ended up with nothing but the God of Emotion's godhood. With Electrolux around, he might even have created his own godhood.]

[Too bad. After joining Shrek Academy and meeting Wang Dong'er, Huo Yuhao was gradually tamed into Tang San's watchdog.]

Wang Dong'er stared blankly at the diary, her heart a jumble of emotions.

She'd known for a long time about Tang San's plan, and that she wasn't really herself, but merely a part of Tang Wutong. But seeing Ao Yao bring it up again still made her heart ache.

Star Dou Great Forest.

After reading the diary Ao Yao had written, Gu Yuena finally let out a long breath.

Lately, she'd been wondering what sort of trick Sea God Tang San would use to tamper with the Auspicious Beast.

Now she finally knew.

That meant that as long as she kept the Auspicious Beast away from Huo Yuhao, Tang San wouldn't be able to meddle with her.

No... wait.

That wouldn't be safe enough.

What if Tang San had other methods?

Gu Yuena opened her dragon eyes and gave the matter some serious thought.

Now that she knew Tang San's plan, she had to come up with a foolproof way to counter it.

"Your Majesty..."

Just as Gu Yuena was thinking, a timid voice suddenly came from beside her.

Under Gu Yuena's somewhat stern gaze, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion felt her heart pound. Still, she cautiously ventured, "If I leave the Star Dou Great Forest ahead of time, will that stop Tang San from tampering with me?"

???

Did you even hear what you just said?

I'm over here wondering whether I should keep you by my side forever, and you're telling me you want to leave the Star Dou Great Forest early?

Are you trying to get yourself killed faster?

Before Gu Yuena could react and object, the diary in her mind updated again.

[We know Tang San was born from his father Tang Hao and a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast, and Tang San's wife, Xiao Wu, was also a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast. So how much human blood did Tang San's daughter, Tang Wutong, and son, Tang Wulin, inherit?]

[We also know that Tang Wulin and the co-ruler of the Soul Beasts, the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, had a son named Lan Xuanyu. So how much human blood did Lan Xuanyu inherit?]

[Finally, Lan Xuanyu's wife was a hundred-thousand-year Demon Soul Great White Shark. How much human blood would their child have?]

[You don't even need to calculate that... Tang Hao's the only one contributing human blood here!]
