Ever since waking from that sleep and finding her martial soul transformed from the Light Goddess Butterfly into the Radiant Goddess Body, Wang Dong had felt that the entire world was filled with malice toward her.
She did not even dare return to her home, the Clear Sky Sect.
She was afraid, terrified, trembling.
Afraid that, just as she suspected, Big Daddy and Second Daddy's kindness toward her had another purpose.
Terrified that everything she had was arranged by someone else.
The terror and trembling rising from the depths of her heart made her unable to trust anyone anymore.
She chose to flee, to stay away from people, to wander through the desolate corners of the continent in search of a so-called answer.
Then, she encountered Tang Ya, who had already fallen completely into darkness.
The visual impact of this scene was simply too great for her.
Wang Dong could not imagine how that senior sister, who had once treated everyone so well, had become like this.
Hadn't senior Beibei gone to find her?
Could it be that he had failed to find her?
Just as Wang Dong's thoughts were in turmoil, a strand of Blue Silver Grass pierced straight through her back.
The power of devouring surged wildly, constantly draining Wang Dong's life force.
"This..."
Wang Dong had never expected this sudden, excruciating pain.
She struggled desperately, trying to break free from the restraints, but the more she struggled, the tighter the Blue Silver Grass bound her.
Am I going to die?
Maybe dying would be better!
Maybe if I die, I won't have to think about so many things anymore.
Feeling the life force within her rapidly slipping away, Wang Dong ignored the pain wracking her body for a moment. In her daze, she felt that this outcome did not seem so bad after all.
Somewhere deep down, it was as if she had let go of everything. She would no longer have to be so exhausted.
"Insolence!"
Just as Tang Ya controlled the Dark Blue Silver Grass to madly devour Wang Dong's life force, a blue radiance emerged. It was the safeguard Tang San had left inside Wang Dong's body.
The Sea God's power descended, and its crushing pressure surged straight toward Tang Ya, who had harmed Wang Dong.
Although Tang Ya had raised her strength to the Soul King realm through the power of the Dark Blue Silver King, what was such power before a Deity?
The immense pressure directly displaced Tang Ya's internal organs. Blood flowed from her seven orifices, and the Blue Silver Grass snapped apart inch by inch.
As for the Title Douluo Evil Soul Master protecting Tang Ya, he likewise possessed no power to resist before this force.
Just as Tang Ya was about to be crushed into a mist of blood by that force, Tang San in the God Realm sensed that something was wrong.
He no longer cared about maintaining any image and hurriedly examined the situation.
"Xiao Qi!"
"This child is the Tang Sect's sole remaining heir..."
Realizing that Xiao Qi was in danger, Tang San instinctively prepared to descend through mechanical means and utterly destroy anyone who dared harm his precious daughter. Then he discovered that the one who had attacked his daughter was actually a descendant of the Tang Sect.
Tang San had never expected any of this.
What exactly had happened?
"If I weren't taking into account that you are the Tang Sect's only remaining successor, you would certainly die today!"
Tang San snorted coldly, then controlled Wang Dong's body and activated a hidden wisp of Divine Power within her, helping Tang Ya regain her senses.
As for that Evil Soul Master, he simply ignored him.
At that moment, Tang San's attention was focused more heavily on his daughter.
It would have been better if he had not looked. The moment he did, he discovered a huge problem.
Wang Dong was Wang Dong, and Xiao Qi was Xiao Qi. There was no doubt about that.
Perhaps in the eyes of the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape, they were the same person, both daughters of Sister Xiao Wu.
But only Tang San knew the truth. This body belonged to his daughter Xiao Qi, and the portion of soul hidden within it was also Xiao Qi's. Wang Dong was merely an offshoot born from one of his operational mistakes.
Or rather, when he tore apart the soul, he had failed to control it properly. A fragment of soul had accidentally fused with the Butterfly God's power, producing this aberration.
Naturally, he would never admit such a thing.
Otherwise, if word got out, he would lose all face. A dignified God King making a mistake even while splitting a soul for reincarnation—how could such a thing be allowed?
Thus, from the moment Wang Dong was born, Tang San had already declared her fate: she had to die.
Only then could he conceal his mistake!
He had thought he had taken every precaution and put every safeguard in place, yet an accident had still occurred.
For some unknown reason, an entirely new version of her had been born within Wang Dong's Spirit Sea.
The crucial point was that this new her was intimately connected to his daughter Xiao Qi. Their lives and deaths depended upon one another.
If he erased her, Xiao Qi's soul would be severely damaged, or she might never awaken again.
But if he did not erase her, she would be a hidden danger, a danger beyond his control.
There were three of her within Wang Dong's body. Adding the fragment of Xiao Qi's Divine Sense that Tang San still held, Xiao Qi—or rather, Tang Wutong—had been completely divided into four parts.
"How is that possible?"
"How could there be no solution?"
No matter how Tang San tried, no matter how he racked his brains, he discovered that he was utterly helpless before the current situation.
Such a thing was absolutely unacceptable.
He was a God King, an omnipotent God King.
For a moment, Tang San's eyes turned bloodshot, and he panted like a bull.
He could not accept this result.
The best solution now was to seek help from the other Deities of the God Realm, especially the Life God King, who specialized in souls.
But once he sought her out, everything he had done would be exposed. The image he had worked so hard to maintain and the favorable situation he had painstakingly stabilized would collapse in an instant.
As for lowering his head to seek help from those First-Class Gods, that was even more impossible.
It would damage the dignity of a God King.
"Since the situation cannot be controlled, then let it fall into complete chaos."
"If you want to fight, then keep fighting. Whoever wins will be my daughter!"
Gritting his teeth and hardening his heart, Tang San cast the fragment of Divine Sense he had originally intended to place within the Auspicious Beast into Wang Dong's Spirit Sea.
At the last moment, Tang San still felt that something was amiss and was unwilling to abandon his plan just like that.
He then recalled that fragment of Divine Sense, split it into two again, kept one portion in his hand, and sent the other into Wang Dong's Spirit Sea to nurture it like venomous insects in a jar.
Thus, Tang Wutong, the God King's daughter, was divided into five parts.
"Daming, Erming, you two useless fools failed to protect her!"
"Otherwise, how could something like this have happened!"
After dealing with Xiao Qi's matter, Tang San turned and vented his fury on the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape.
"Daming, is this how you protect Xiao Qi?"
"Hadn't I already ordered you to bring Xiao Qi back to the Clear Sky Sect?"
Tang San's icy voice rang within the Sky Azure Bull Python's mind, filled with endless killing intent and rage.
Daming, the Sky Azure Bull Python, inwardly cried out in alarm.
Tang San had come for him after all, to hold him accountable.
"Third Brother..."
"Shut up. Address me as the Sea God!"
The moment the Sky Azure Bull Python spoke, Tang San's cold and merciless voice cut him off.
In that instant, the Sky Azure Bull Python felt as though he had suffered unprecedented humiliation.
If it were not for Sister Xiao Wu, he would have rebelled against the bastard right then and there!
