Is it really such a coincidence?

Chapter 319 The Tang Family: Six Divine Kings!

Deep within the God of Destruction's purplish-black eyes, doubts about this coincidence had not yet dissipated, but a trace of instinctive unease came from beside him.

He glanced sideways, catching a glimpse of the expression on the face of the Life Goddess out of the corner of his eye.

After watching those memory fragments, her gaze towards him was no longer as gentle as before.

The God of Destruction recalled that in these fragments of memory, the "Life Goddess," his wife, had repeatedly stood against him, dissuading him, opposing him, and even... joining forces with other deities to try to stop him.

At this moment, the Life Goddess looked at him with a gaze devoid of the usual gentleness and helplessness, replaced by a clear disapproval, and even a hint of... condemnation.

It was as if those "memory images" that had not yet occurred and whose origins were questionable had become evidence of her guilt in judging her husband's behavior and beliefs at this moment.

The heart of the God of Destruction felt strangely cold.

This wasn't the first time they'd disagreed; their conflict stemmed from their opposing divine identities, and arguments were commonplace. Destruction yearned for the reconstruction of order and the destruction preceding rebirth, while life tenaciously guarded its existing prosperity and vitality.

Every argument filled the God of Destruction with conflicting emotions—he deeply admired the pure, nurturing Goddess of Kindness and vitality in his wife, a light that could never spontaneously arise from his own deity of destruction; yet he felt lonely and pained because his wife seemed forever unable to truly understand his grand vision.

However, past arguments were at least based on concrete, ongoing events; they were clashes of ideas and positions. Although they caused harm, they still fell into the category of "disputes between partners."

But this time, it's completely different.

This was merely a scene from the memory of a dubious mortal who never experienced anything! And his wife so readily believed it, casting a reproachful glance at him because of this fabricated image?

This is utterly absurd!

In a daze, the God of Destruction felt a strange sense of alienation. He suddenly realized that, without knowing when, it seemed that only arguments and conflicts remained between him and his wife.

Those beautiful memories shared during our long divine journey seem to have been worn away by this endless quarreling.

In particular, the scene depicted in this memory—himself proposing to expand the barriers of the Divine Realm, even if the methods were radical, wasn't the original intention to deal with potential threats and to allow the Divine Realm to break through limitations and continue to develop and prosper? In his view, this was a reasonable and even necessary move.

But the wife in the picture not only didn't support him, she sided with the "enemy" and joined him in opposing him...

Is this really the attitude that couples should have?

He couldn't help but recall other famous couples in the Divine Realm, such as the Food God and the Nine-Colored Goddess. They may have had disagreements, but they supported each other and faced storms together.

And oneself and life... are probably the most like enemies among companions in the Divine Realm.

A bitter smile crept across the God of Destruction's face, a smile that reflected not only his disappointment in his wife but also his self-mockery at how their long divine partnership had come to this.

Unfortunately, the Life Goddess failed to notice the complex emotions surging in her husband's eyes.

Her attention was still preoccupied with the memory of her "future husband's" "stubbornness" and the potential disastrous consequences, and her heart was filled with helplessness and anxiety.

If she weren't currently examining Tang San's memories, she probably would have already spoken up, advising or even criticizing her husband.

However, her eagerness, born of "love and responsibility," seemed more like proof of "opposition" and "distrust" under the cold scrutiny of the God of Destruction.

The God of Destruction withdrew his gaze, forcibly suppressing the surging coldness and alienation within him, and refocused his attention on the matter at hand.

However, deep within those purplish-black eyes of destruction, the conflicting emotions of love and pain for his wife, originally stemming from the clash of divine powers, seemed to be quietly shifting.

Some things, once doubted, can never be the same again.

······································

The Asura God's blood-red eyes keenly caught the fleeting negative emotion on the God of Destruction.

He understood perfectly well, yet remained unmoved. This couple, who had quarreled for tens of thousands of years due to their conflicting divine status, had always reconciled in some way after their earth-shattering arguments. In his view, this was just another harmless ripple in their long divine lives, far less important than dealing with the current situation and finding a suitable successor. He had no intention of getting involved, nor did he even pay it any extra attention.

The Rakshasa God also noticed, but her attitude was completely different. Her dark purple eyes flashed with undisguised malice and interest as she savored the estrangement and rift between the two god-kings.

A rift has emerged within the God-Kingdom? This is the very chaos she's been dreaming of! She couldn't wait for the rift to deepen, ideally triggering a real conflict to add some "fun" to this "boring" Divine Realm.

Hoping she can help resolve this? That's simply a pipe dream.

Tang San, curled up within the Rakshasa Divine Power, was currently enduring indescribable pain. The forced extraction and stripping of his deep memories had caused immense burden and damage to his soul.

His body convulsed, his clothes were soaked with cold sweat, his face was contorted, and he could barely maintain a clear consciousness.

But at this moment, no deity cared about his suffering. Even the Life Goddess, who might have initially shown some compassion, was completely absorbed by the continuously playing content and had no time to spare.

The memories continue to play.

·········································

The God of Destruction and the Life Goddess sacrificed themselves to save the Divine Realm from the chaotic flow of time and space, while Tang San was "appointed in a time of crisis" to "safeguard" the divine status of the two God Kings, awaiting their return from "reincarnation"...

Immediately afterwards, an unexpected change occurred! The previous spatial turbulence caused the seal on the Golden Dragon King to loosen, and this terrifying behemoth, symbolizing the Dragon God's violent and destructive side, broke free of its seal, unleashing a bloodbath in the Divine Realm.

Tang San led the gods and, after a fierce battle, finally succeeded in slaying the Golden Dragon King.

However, just as the Golden Dragon King was about to perish, it made an utterly perplexing move—it actively injected its immense essence, enough to burst its divine body, into Tang San's infant son, Tang Wulin, intending to cause him to explode and die...

The scene shows that Tang Wulin's body could not withstand the essence of the Golden Dragon King, and in the environment of the Divine Realm, this power erupted even faster.

Therefore, Tang San and his wife Xiao Wu made the painful decision to seal Tang Wulin's divine power and memories and send him to the most "stable" planet in the lower realm— Douluo Star.

Upon seeing this, the entire Divine Realm Conference Hall fell into an eerie silence, which was then replaced by an almost tangible sense of doubt and absurdity.

"The Golden Dragon King... before his death, deliberately injected his own essence into an infant's body, his purpose merely... to stuff him to death?" A Second-Level God couldn't help but chuckle softly, breaking the silence.

"Is this Golden Dragon King an idiot?!" another deity interjected, his tone filled with disbelief.

"Coincidence? Another coincidence, this is too much of a coincidence!" The God of Destruction's voice rang out coldly. His purplish-black eyes were fixed on the screen, then swept over Tang San, who was curled up in pain on the ground. "Why did the Golden Dragon King break the seal at the exact moment of his 'sacrifice' of life and destruction, and after Tang San took control of the God King's divine status? And in his dying moments, he 'precisely' gave his essence to Tang San's son? And Tang San was able to 'just happen' to quickly seal this violent energy that even a God King had to treat with caution?"

There were too many coincidences and flaws in this series of events, yet Tang Wulin, an infant, emerged unscathed from the Golden Dragon King's battlefield and even managed to obtain the Golden Dragon King's essence energy at the last moment.

The Life Goddess frowned, and her gaze toward Tang San was replaced by increasing scrutiny and suspicion, replacing the previous pity she had shown earlier.

This series of "coincidences," linked together, with the ultimate beneficiary so clearly identified, even Goddess of Kindness like her couldn't help but feel suspicious.

Considering Tang San's previous ruthless methods of using his daughter Tang Wutong to seize the bloodline and fortune of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and manipulate Huo Yuhao, the chosen one of destiny...

An idea arose irrepressibly in the minds of the gods.

This is no coincidence! This is clearly a meticulously planned, intricately linked... conspiracy!

One coincidence may be accidental, two coincidences are suspicious, but when "coincidences" are so frequent, and each one precisely maximizes the interests of the same person, their nature changes completely.

Either he is a chosen one, destined by fate, or all of this was orchestrated by the beneficiary.

All the gods, including the five God Kings, looked at Tang San with completely different eyes.

The Asura God frowned deeply. The candidate for godhood that he had initially chosen to bring to the Douluo Continent seemed to be far more "complex" and "dangerous" than he had imagined.

The God of Destruction's aura of destruction fluctuated violently. If all of this was truly a scheme, then wouldn't his "sacrifice" of life and death in the scene be even more ridiculous? Sacrificing himself to protect the enemy who plotted against him, and then entrusting his divine essence to the other party for safekeeping?

The Rakshasa God was so excited he was almost trembling; it was too amazing!

This Tang San is indeed very suited to his divine position, but unfortunately, he's too ambitious...

·····································

The memories unfold from Tang San's perspective, and many details cannot be concealed.

Despite being in the heart of the terrifying vortex of the fierce battle between the God King and the Golden Dragon King, the infant Tang Wulin was protected and remained unharmed.

The scene clearly shows that, during a break in the "fierce battle," Tang San intentionally or unintentionally led the berserk Golden Dragon King towards Tang Wulin's location!

Before this, he had been protecting his son with all his might, but when the Golden Dragon King's destructive essence energy roared and surged toward Tang Wulin, the protective barrier just happened to "fail" or "failed to react in time," allowing the energy, which was enough to burst a god's body, to pour into the baby's body.

And... Gu Yuena. In the fragments of memory, scenes of Tang San's several encounters with this Silver Dragon King flashed by.

But under the suspicious and scrutinizing gazes of the gods, these brief encounters revealed something unusual.

No one investigated it closely at the time, but now it seems that it may have been part of a long-term plan.

The subsequent development of memories seems "plain," with the temporal turbulence being resisted by the sacrifice of the two God-Kings, and the crisis resolved. Tang San "dutifully" safeguards the divine essence of life and destruction, and the Divine Realm seems to have returned to peace, until he experiences a black hole and returns.

When the memory progressed to Tang San's return, and he saw his son Tang Wulin, who had fully mastered the power of the Golden Dragon King and possessed a powerful aura, and Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, who stood beside him, aloof and beautiful, and had become his wife, the hearts of the gods in the Divine Realm were filled with turbulent waves.

However, the real "trump card" came when they saw Lan Xuanyu, who stood between Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena, possessing both the ferocious bloodline of the Golden Dragon King and the elemental control of the Silver Dragon King, with a faint dragon-shaped divine mark flickering between his brows.

"Hiss--!"

Someone gasped in surprise.

Then came more suppressed gasps and whispers of sudden realization!

"So that's it... so that's his goal..." A god's voice trembled, "The Dragon God's inheritance! He was after the Dragon God's throne!"

"Granting his son the Golden Dragon King Bloodline is only the first step! Even if Tang Wulin fails to inherit the Dragon God's legacy, he has a backup plan—to have his son unite with the Silver Dragon King!" Another deity's voice was filled with horror. "As long as they have offspring, there's a high chance of creating an individual who possesses both the Golden and Silver Dragon King Bloodline... That's the one truly qualified to inherit the complete Dragon God Divinity! The success rate is more than a hundred times higher than simply absorbing the Golden Dragon King's essence!"

"Too crazy... too obsessed!" Even the Asura God couldn't help but mutter his opinion, his crimson eyes filled with complex scrutiny.

This scheme, spanning two generations, using deities as chess pieces, and bloodlines as chains, transcends conventional understanding.

When the memory finally settled on Tang San smiling as he directly "bestowed" the divine powers of the Life Goddess and the God of Destruction upon Gu Yuena and Tang Wulin, clearly having already paved the way for them to fuse their divine powers and ascend to the rank of God King...

The entire central hub of the Divine Realm fell into a deathly silence.

All the gods, including the five seasoned god-kings, felt a chilling absurdity that sent shivers down their spines.

What happened to the promise of safekeeping and waiting for reincarnation?

How could the "custodian" so "naturally" and "eagerly" arrange for the throne of the god-king to be given to his own son and daughter-in-law as soon as he returned?!

This isn't safekeeping; it's as if they've already regarded the divine status of the God-King as their own inheritance, and they're too lazy to even put on the act of "returning it to its rightful owner"!

Some of the more perceptive deities began to calculate rapidly.

Tang San himself.

His wife, Xiao Wu (who shares the power of the God-King).

His son Tang Wulin.

His daughter-in-law Gu Yuena.

His grandson Lan Xuanyu.

His son-in-law, Huo Yuhao (the Emotion God, who later cultivated to the level of God King, can be considered as "marrying into" the Tang family).

The Tang family boasts six powerful divine kings!
