Wang Dong'er Enters the Valley, Divine Sense Searches for Traces
Luo Can looked down at the little girl with long pink and blue hair lying on the grass and sighed inwardly.
It's too late for regrets now.
"When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it." Luo Can clenched his fist, his eyes hardening. "So what if Tang San has a cheat code? I'll see if his Dual Godhood is more powerful, or if my system is superior."
Just then, the little girl on the ground twitched her eyelids slightly and slowly opened her eyes.
A pair of clear, light blue eyes looked around blankly before finally settling on Luo Can's face.
For some reason, she felt an inexplicable sense of closeness to this stranger in front of her.
"Who... who are you?" Wang Dong'er asked. "Where are my Big Uncle and Second Uncle? Where did they go?"
She remembered that she was just in Haotian Castle, talking with her Big Uncle Niu Tian and Second Uncle Tai Tan. How did she end up in this unfamiliar place in the blink of an eye? She was surrounded by Vastness lake, with towering mountains in the distance, and a large group of Spirit Beast surrounding the stranger in front of her.
This is definitely not Haotian Castle.
Luo Can reached out and pulled her up from the ground, smiling as he said, "My name is Luo Can, and from today onwards, I am your master."
"Master?" Wang Dong'er tilted her head, looking at him with some confusion. "Did your Big Uncle and Second Uncle ask you to be my teacher?"
Luo Can smiled, but instead of answering directly, he asked, "Did your Big Uncle and Second Uncle never tell you who your biological parents are?"
"Biological parents?" Wang Dong'er frowned.
This matter had always been a knot in her heart. Every time she asked her Big Uncle and Second Uncle, they would always make up various excuses and never give a direct answer.
"You know?" She looked up, a hint of expectation in her eyes.
"Of course I know," Luo Can nodded. "However, if you want to know these things, you'll have to become my disciple first."
Without a second thought, Wang Dong'er immediately bowed deeply to Luo Can: "Wang Dong'er greets Master!"
Meanwhile, on the other side of the Douluo Continent, in a desolate Gobi Desert.
Tang San's Divine Sense, who had been forcibly expelled from the Fate Defying Valley Small World, slowly opened his eyes.
He stared blankly at the desolate scene around him, his brows furrowing deeply.
What exactly happened? He only felt an irresistible force of spacetime acting on Xiao Qi, and then he completely lost contact with his main body.
He tried to call out to the original body, but received no response.
"Where's Xiao Qi? Where's my grown daughter?!"
Tang San's Divine Sense's mind skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition surged into his heart.
He tried to contact his main body again, but to no avail. Even his connection with the two Divine Position, the Sea God and the Asura God, was severed.
"That terrifying spatial and temporal power just now... could it be that I'm no longer in my original timeline?"
An absurd thought arose in Tang San's Divine Sense's mind.
Moreover, without the energy supply from Divine Position, his divine sense could not exist in the outside world for long; at most, it would completely dissipate within half a month.
"No! I must find Xiao Qi! Only by returning to her body can I continue to exist! The main body's plan absolutely cannot go wrong!"
Thinking of this, Tang San's Divine Sense immediately released his Divine Sense, trying to sense Wang Dong'er's location.
A quarter of an hour, or half an hour.
For a full hour, he extended his Divine Sense to its limit, but he couldn't detect even a trace of Wang Dong'er's presence.
At this moment, the high and mighty God King finally panicked.
"How is this possible?! Where did Xiao Qi go?!"
He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
"With my current energy, I can only survive for another half a month at most. I need to figure out where I am first!"
As he spoke, he expanded his Divine Sense once again, this time covering the entire Douluo Planet.
What he saw completely stunned him.
He saw the Heaven Dou Empire before it split apart, the Star Luo Empire where the Dai Family was still royalty, the magnificent Spirit Hall, and Shrek Academy, which was still a small rural academy.
There was no Sun Moon Continent, no Soul Tool, and no Tang Sect.
"Ten Thousand Years! This is actually the Douluo Continent Ten Thousand Years!"
Tang San's Divine Sense gasped, his face showing disbelief.
"Who exactly was it? Who brought me and Xiao Qi back Ten Thousand Years?"
While those four— Destruction, Life, Goodness, and Evil—are also God King, they definitely don't have the ability to travel through time. Could it be... the Dragon God?
"Who exactly sent me back Ten Thousand Years? What was their purpose?"
Tang San's Divine Sense's mind was filled with fear and unease.
However, he quickly calmed down.
"Since we can't contact the original body... and the 'me' of this era truly exists." He took a step, his illusory figure transforming into a streak of blue-gold light that shot away. "Then let's find this 'me' first, and then through him, retrieve Xiao Qi."
Having made up his mind, Tang San's Divine Sense to determine the direction, then transformed into a streak of blue-gold light and flew towards Nuoding City.
Fate Defying Valley, Lake Heart Island.
Luo Can was sitting on a rock, telling Wang Dong'er about her background.
"You're saying... I'm the daughter of Sea God Tang San?" Wang Dong'er's eyes widened, her face filled with shock. "But... why don't I have any memories of this?"
Luo Can looked at her and said calmly, "Because from the day you were born, you were just a tool. A tool for the Sea God Tang San to completely control the destiny of the Douluo Continent."
"Tools?" Wang Dong'er was stunned.
"That's right." Luo Can nodded. "In your time, there was an Emperor Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, in the Star Dou Forest. It carried the fortune of the entire Soul Beast Clan. Tang San wanted to steal this fortune, so he split your soul into three parts."
"One portion remained with you, one portion was with him, and the third portion was injected into the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's body. He wanted you to merge with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion so that he could use you to steal all of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's fortune and bloodline."
"Not only that, he also wants to use you to keep the Child of Destiny of that era by his side. In this way, he can not only firmly control the entire Douluo Continent, but also consolidate his position in the Divine Realm."
"That's why you have no memory."
Wang Dong'er sat there blankly, her face pale, unable to utter a single word.
She couldn't believe that her own father would treat her like this.
"But I'm his daughter! Why did he do this to me?" she said, her voice trembling with tears.
"Because in his eyes, you're just a tool." Luo Can's tone remained calm, yet it was like a knife, piercing Wang Dong'er's heart. "For his plan, he can sacrifice anyone, including his daughter."
Wang Dong'er lowered her head, her shoulders trembling slightly.
She didn't want to believe what Luo Can said, but when she thought of the evasive looks and vague answers her Big Uncle and Second Uncle gave each time they mentioned her father, she knew that what her master said was very likely true.
Seeing her distraught appearance, Luo Can reached out and gently patted her head.
"Wang Dong'er Wang Dong'er," he looked at her and asked earnestly, "Are you willing to change your destiny? Are you willing to shed this identity as a tool and live for yourself for once?"
"But... he's the Sea God." Wang Dong'er raised her head, her voice filled with despair. "I'm just a tool. How could I possibly defy a god?"
The thought of a god so cold-blooded as to cut his own daughter's soul into three pieces is enough to send chills down your spine.
Luo Can smiled and wiped away her tears.
"Silly girl," he said, pointing to the sky with a smile, "We are now Ten Thousand Years. At this time, your father, Tang San, was just a child studying at the Nuoding Academy."
So, it's not too late.
