Xiao Wu Was Locked Up! Talk Her into It!

Although the 100,000 Year Spirit Ring's cultivation had been sealed,

First Hong could still use both Spirit Abilities it granted.

First Spirit Ability: Titan Heavy Claw!

A pure offensive Spirit Ability. Its original power had even surpassed the Great Sumeru Hammer's Ring Detonation, though it required some charging time.

Because the Spirit Ring was sealed, its power was also limited to 71,000 years.

First Spirit Ability: Earth Power!

It allowed him to control the power of the earth for his own use, reshaping the terrain at will to trap enemies, bind enemies, and kill enemies!

Its upper and lower limits depended entirely on how creatively it was used.

Its power was likewise limited to 71,000 years.

In comparison,

the Titan Giant Ape External Soul Bone on his left palm was not weakened in the slightest. Aside from its massive boost to his physique, it also granted two 100,000 Year Soul Bone Skills.

Soul Bone Skill: Gravity Swamp!

Converted from the Titan Giant Ape's gravity-control domain, its range had been greatly reduced, but its maximum gravity had been drastically increased!

Naturally, its consumption had increased proportionally as well, which counted as a minor limitation.

Soul Bone Skill: Titan Sky Cannon!

Using control over gravity, it instantly compressed the air into terrifying energy, erasing its target in the physical sense!

Mm.

Put plainly, it was an air cannon.

But First Hong felt that if he had the time to compress the air, why not directly compress the enemy instead?

Wasn't that putting the cart before the horse?

"Er Ming!!!"

Xiao Wu's scream snapped First Hong out of his thoughts. He saw her throw herself over the headless giant corpse, tears streaming down her face.

"Oh, you're awake." First Hong said casually, "Looks like you knew each other. I came all this way to save you for nothing."

Xiao Wu trembled all over, lowering her head and not daring to meet First Hong's eyes.

She was afraid that the hatred in her eyes would provoke First Hong's killing intent!

The companion she had grown up relying on since childhood had been killed so abruptly.

Who wouldn't hate him?

"First!" Xiao Wu suppressed her hatred and said, "Can't you revive people? Er Ming is my younger brother. Can you..."

"I can." First Hong nodded. "But the price of revival is probably beyond what you can pay. And are you sure you really want him revived?"

Xiao Wu was first delighted, then despairing, and finally suspicious.

How could she not want Er Ming to be revived?

"Soul Beasts cannot become gods. That is ordained by heaven, which is why Beast Transformation exists."

First Hong said calmly—

"Moreover, every 100,000 years, ferocious beasts must undergo a heavenly tribulation. If they survive, they live another 100,000 years. If they fail, they are reduced to ashes."

"But now that it has become my Spirit Ring and Soul Bone, once I become a god, it can naturally ascend with me and gain an endless lifespan."

"Now, do you still want it revived?"

Xiao Wu looked up blankly.

Huh?

That was possible?

First Hong's identity was mysterious. He could casually produce Immortal Herbs and cultivation methods, kill a Titan Giant Ape by himself, and even absorb its 100,000 Year Spirit Ring.

Becoming a god...

The odds really were quite high!

Compared to letting Er Ming struggle on his own, becoming First Hong's accessory and coasting all the way to ascension was not a bad choice either.

"No!" Xiao Wu said warily. "How do I know whether you're telling the truth? What if Er Ming is simply dead?"

First Hong answered her with an eye-roll.

Only then did Xiao Wu realize.

First Hong could kill even a Titan Giant Ape at its peak. Did he need to deceive a Three Ring Soul Grandmaster who had undergone Beast Transformation?

Besides.

First Hong possessed Four Spirits. Since he could absorb the Titan Giant Ape's Spirit Ring and Soul Bone, there was no possibility of "raising Xiao Wu until she was ripe before killing her."

If he wanted to, he could just kill her.

Why would he need to deceive her?

Xiao Wu gave a bitter smile.

She reluctantly stood up and looked at First Hong with a complicated expression.

As the one who had killed Er Ming, she should have hated him.

Yet...

Now, it seemed she instead had to thank him for giving Er Ming an opportunity to ascend?

It was utterly absurd!

"Instead of worrying about someone who's already dead, why not worry about your lover?" First Hong drawled. "When he saw you being taken, he chased after you without regard for his own life. He's being stopped by a Man Faced Demon Spider right now and is in grave danger."

Xiao Wu panicked on the spot!

She urged, "Then hurry and save Little San!"

First Hong remained unmoved.

Tang San had not yet exhausted all his strength. There was no rush.

Besides—

First Hong raised a brow and said—

"That Titan Giant Ape ambushed me and abducted you right under my nose. That was a slap in my face, which is why I angrily chased after it."

"As for Tang San, I don't know him. Why should I save him?"

"He didn't even have the strength, yet he dared charge into the depths of the Mixed Zone. Then he should have been prepared to die."

Xiao Wu stamped her feet anxiously!

"Then tell me where Little San is! I'll go myself!"

First Hong spread his hands again.

"I don't owe you anything. Why should I tell you?"

Xiao Wu was completely frantic!

Yet there was nothing she could do to First Hong.

"Then tell me, what exactly do you want!"

That was more like it.

Wouldn't it have been fine if she had said that from the start?

First Hong looked toward the livestream room.

'My esteemed viewers, is there anything you'd like me to do?'

"God of Emotion": Make Xiao Wu die for Tang San! Hurt that Little Wretch to death! Make him beg you to revive her! Then put a Chastity Lock on her! The kind that sends him flying the moment they hold hands!

Tsk, tsk!

Those were all God King Tang San's own tricks.

But why was he sending God-Given Spirit Rings too...

He already had more than fifty in stock. Four Spirits was long since enough.

If he sold them in the Livestream Room Shop, one was only worth 5,000 livestream points.

Not enough, not enough.

'The God of Emotion's suggestion can be put on hold.'

'Do any of the other esteemed viewers have ideas?'

"God of Phoenix": I also want Tang San to taste the torment of being separated from his beloved by life and death, watching her grow old and die, but that probably cannot be achieved at present.

"God of Speed": Xiao Wu merely has poor judgment in knowing that unlucky bastard Tang San. She herself is innocent.

"Nine Color Goddess": Just do what the God of Emotion said and give Tang San the full treatment. Watching it in the Valley of Questioning Love had made me so anxious.

"God of Emotion": Yes! Give him the full treatment!

So that was it.

Fine, then.

'God of Emotion, please work out the details. I'll cooperate with you when the time comes.'

"God of Emotion": Alright!!! I will definitely give him a proper welcome!!!

"God of Emotion": This is my token of thanks.

Please have the streamer place this strand in Xiao Wu's Spiritual World. It has already been set: the moment Tang San makes physical contact with her, it will blast him to death!!!

First Hong smiled.

Considerate.

'Easy enough. Take your time thinking it over, esteemed viewer. There's no rush.'

First Hong looked at the anxiously waiting Xiao Wu.

"How about this? I discovered a place that may be a god's Land of Inheritance. You'll come with me to scout it out when the time comes."

"If you obtain a god's inheritance, that will count as your opportunity."

"Everything else we gain will belong to me."

"How about it?"

Xiao Wu was stunned!

I'm asking you to do me a favor, yet you're offering me an opportunity to become a god?

Who exactly was begging whom here?

But she could not think about that now. She would agree first and worry about it later.

"No problem! Hurry! Go save Little San!"

"No rush."

First Hong raised a hand and took out a multicolored strand of Emotion Divine Sense.

"That God Trial Land is somewhat special. Only those with pure bodies can enter."

"To prevent you from losing your purity before fulfilling our agreement, I need you to accept this strand of Divine Sense. It ordinarily won't cause any problems, but once you have intimate physical contact with someone of the opposite sex, it will impose punishment."

"Do you agree?"

How could Xiao Wu care about any of that now? She reached out to grab the Emotion Divine Sense, and it entered her Spiritual World through her palm.

Done.

"God of Emotion": Hahahaha! Tang San! Tang San! You finally have this day! Let you experience what retribution means!!!

The God of Emotion was absolutely delighted.

Later, he could stream more scenes of Tang San getting blasted away.

Once he made the God of Emotion happy, wouldn't it be only natural for the god to casually send a few tips?
