"Mom, I can ask Sister Life. Maybe she can let Nana and Xie Yue reincarnate together."

Time had passed. Under ordinary circumstances, after ten thousand years, mortals would have reincarnated countless times.

But Xie Yue was an exception.

His younger sister had become immortal, and he feared that if he reincarnated, she wouldn't recognize him.

So his soul had lingered in the human world, drifting in a daze instead of reincarnating.

"But wouldn't that affect you somehow?"

Qian Renxue smiled. "Of course not. Sister Life loves mortals more than anyone."

"But what if..."

Bibi Dong was naturally worried that her disciple, Hu Liena, might not become a god and would eventually turn to dust like Xie Yue.

After all, she hadn't been chosen by a deity ten thousand years ago. What chance did she have now, in an age teeming with prodigies?

Seeing her mother's concern getting the better of her, Qian Renxue couldn't help covering her mouth as she laughed. "Mom, you'll be going down to the Divine Realm eventually anyway. You can just take Nana on as your disciple again then, can't you?"

"Once you've completed your mission, you should be able to become a First-Level God. Then you can bring Nana and Xie Yue to the Divine Realm with you, right?"

Hu Liena's heart trembled. She looked at Qian Renxue with deep gratitude. "Thank you, Xue'er."

Bibi Dong's lips twitched. She tapped Qian Renxue on the forehead and said, exasperated, "Well, well. So you've started scheming against your own mother, have you?"

She hadn't expected to be nowhere near securing her own divine position, yet Qian Renxue had already claimed both spots for bringing people along.

"Still, it's not impossible."

Bibi Dong stroked her chin, her thoughts churning. Then she asked softly, "By the way, Xue'er, how many days until Doudou's Martial Soul Awakening?"

"Should be exactly six days," Qian Renxue replied after a moment's thought.

"All right, then. Let's do that.

"Take Nana to reincarnate. By the time Doudou and I go down to the Divine Realm, Nana should be about six years old."

Bibi Dong finally agreed to Hu Liena's request. After all, she was her disciple.

Though she was a little willful and rather foolish, her devotion to Bibi Dong was genuine.

If Bibi Dong didn't help her, who would?

One day in the Divine Realm was a year in the lower world.

Six days would be enough for an infant to grow into a little girl on Douluo Continent.

Hu Liena was overcome with gratitude and kowtowed to Bibi Dong once more. "Nana thanks you for granting her wish, Teacher!"

"Get up."

Bibi Dong waved her hand and pinched Hu Liena's cheek, sounding exasperated. "You really are impossible."

Seeing that her teacher was no longer angry, Hu Liena immediately broke into a smile through her tears. "Teacher, I knew you were the best!"

Bibi Dong rubbed her temples. The thought that Hu Liena wouldn't recognize her after reincarnating gave her a headache.

"Xue'er, is there a way to let Nana and Xie Yue reincarnate with their memories intact?"

"That's easy. I just need to leave a wisp of divine consciousness in each of them. Later, I can use it to awaken their memories..."

Six days passed in the blink of an eye.

Asura Hall, the main assembly hall.

Today was the Divine Realm's Martial Soul Awakening ceremony, held specifically for all the second-generation gods. Though it was meant for all of them, in practice, the only ones awakening their Martial Souls this time were Chen Doudou and Tang Wutong.

A quaint Awakening Array stood in the center of the hall, glowing with a faint golden light.

The Five Great God Kings sat in the front row, while all the gods had gathered along both sides of the hall. Everyone waited in eager anticipation.

"Wow... God of Destruction, Goddess of Life, God of Evil, and Goddess of Kindness are all here. This is the first time I've seen all Five Great God Kings gathered together."

"Same here. It just goes to show how much face Asura God has."

The grand and lively spectacle filled the divine officials who had come to Asura Hall for the first time with curiosity. Their hushed conversations rose and fell all around the hall.

Rakshasa God led Chen Doudou into the hall by the hand. She turned and patted his head.

"Doudou, are you ready?"

"Mm-hmm!"

Chen Doudou didn't look nervous at all.

After all, he already knew which Martial Soul he would awaken.

He just didn't know how his mom and dad would react. They'd surely be thrilled for him, right?

He was a man destined to become King of Kindness!

"The awakening ceremony begins!"

The one in charge of awakening their Martial Souls today was Sea God's wife, Xiao Wu.

She crouched down and looked at the two warmly. "Doudou, Wutong, which of you wants to go first?"

Since he could remember, Chen Doudou hadn't met Xiao Wu many times. Most of what he remembered was that his mom hadn't had enough milk, so he'd drunk Xiao Wu's instead.

So when he looked at the pretty, charming woman before him, he blushed under her gaze and turned his head away. "Wutong, you go first."

"Thank you, Brother Doudou."

Tang Wutong thanked him obediently, then stepped into the Awakening Array.

In the distance, Tang San was immensely pleased. As expected of Asura God's son. Just look at his upbringing, then look at Wutong. Ah, a loving mother spoils her child.

Amid the brilliant golden light, the phantom of a beautiful blue butterfly and a small black hammer shot into the air.

Bathed in the radiance of her Martial Souls, Tang Wutong—already as delicate as a doll—grew even more beautiful and adorable. Her lovely gemstone eyes shimmered with a faint blue light.

Even Chen Doudou couldn't help taking a few extra glances.

Tang San, who had been watching Chen Doudou closely, caught that subtle change in his eyes. His lips lifted. "Sure enough, anyone would be drawn to a beautiful person. Luckily, I asked Butterfly God in advance to get Wutong the Light Goddess Butterfly to replace Soft Bone Charm Rabbit."

Then Tang Wutong placed her hand on the crystal ball.

"Excellent! Twin Martial Souls: Clear Sky Hammer and Light Goddess Butterfly."

Xiao Wu smiled and nodded. The First-Level Gods and Second-Level Gods below the stage burst into applause.

Next, it was Chen Doudou's turn.

God of Destruction, God of Evil, and Asura God had been resting with their eyes closed. Now, all three God Kings opened their eyes at the same time.

"Good luck, Brother Doudou!"

Tang Wutong had just finished awakening her Martial Souls. She made an encouraging gesture toward Chen Doudou.

Chen Doudou strode steadily into the Awakening Array.

"What Martial Soul do you think Lord Doudou will awaken?"

"What kind of question is that? It's definitely Asura God's Asura Sword. At worst, it'll be Rakshasa God's Rakshasa Demon Scythe."

"What if it mutates?"

"Get lost! What kind of jinx are you? Think I won't chop you in half? How dare you curse our young lord!"

In the center of the Awakening Array,

Xiao Wu's gentle voice guided him. "Doudou, calm your mind and feel the power within you."

Chen Doudou closed his eyes and slowly raised both hands.

The next moment, a dazzling golden light shot straight into the sky.

In his left hand was the Asura Demon Sword, brimming with killing intent.

In his right hand was the Rakshasa Demon Scythe, brimming with evil energy.

Below the stage, Asura God and Rakshasa God had been holding their breath. At last, their hearts could settle.

Evil God King rose to offer his congratulations. "Congratulations, Asura! You have an heir to carry on your legacy!"

Asura God was overjoyed and announced loudly, "Hahahaha! The congratulations go both ways. My son Doudou has the bearing of a God King!"

However, in the very next moment,

the Asura Sword, which had been glowing red, and the Rakshasa Demon Scythe, which had been glowing purple, suddenly underwent a drastic change...
