Summoning Helpers

"Destruction, must you remain so obstinate?"

Tang San still attempted to persuade him patiently, but unfortunately, the God of Destruction refused to listen, merely waving a large hand.

"Say no more. This God Realm can only have one powerhouse. Since so many people have been appearing before my eyes, if I do not deal with them now, won't others think that I, the God of Destruction, have grown old? I have no desire to become a useless old man."

"That's called jealousy, not uselessness."

Lin Yi kindly reminded him, sneering as he spoke.

"Your jealousy is truly impressive; I am awestruck by it."

"What do you know?"

The God of Destruction snorted again, murderous intent rising in his eyes.

"I do this to maintain world peace. If it were left to kind-hearted souls like you, wouldn't the Douluo World be constantly interfered with?"

"And what if it is?"

Lin Yi scoffed dismissively, his gaze sweeping directly toward the God of Destruction.

"I don't see anything wrong with interfering in human development. It is precisely because we gods exist that people hold hope in their hearts. If even the gods refuse to care, then even if the gods existed for ten thousand years, wouldn't those who hold hope in their hearts be destroyed?"

"Only destruction is eternal."

The God of Destruction aimed his power at Lin Yi once more.

"If you do not wish to be killed by me, leave at once. This battle between the Sea God and me is inevitable."

"How unfortunate."

Lin Yi chuckled again, a flicker of coldness crossing his eyes.

"I am not the type to admit defeat. If you want me to back down, I cannot do it. Listen well: if you lay a hand on Brother San, you are my enemy."

"Lin Yi."

Tang San immediately grabbed him, frowning slightly.

"Since this matter has nothing to do with you, you should..."

"Brother San, you need not say any more."

Lin Yi turned his gaze back to the God of Destruction, his attitude exceptionally firm as the power of the Dragon God erupted from his body.

Watching the power of justice from the Nine-Headed Dragon slowly amplify Lin Yi, the God of Destruction felt a twinge of jealousy.

For a newcomer to possess power exceeding that of a Level 5 God was truly terrifying.

Because of this, he felt an even greater urge to eradicate those led by Tang San.

However, he still had to deal with the God of Illusion first. Grabbing the fallen God of Illusion, the God of Destruction departed with the other two.

"How hateful!"

Tang Wutong stomped her foot on the spot, her eyes filled with displeasure.

"Uncle Destruction is truly detestable. He wasn't like this before; when I was young, he even looked after me everywhere."

"People change, let alone gods."

Lin Yi reminded Tang Wutong, his gaze darkening.

"This time, the God of Destruction only gave a warning. The next time will be when the real battle begins. But judging by his power, I know we likely won't resolve this easily."

"What is there to fear?"

Tang Wutong snorted, placing her hands on her hips. "I'm not afraid at all. Even if I have to risk my life, I am willing."

"Don't say that."

Huo Yuhao said with a hint of worry, "Do you want to make your parents worry? You know how much they care about you."

Tang Wutong stuck out her tongue.

"I was just saying that off the cuff. If a real battle happens, with so many helpers, we won't die."

"Wutong, you are just too willful."

Xiao Wu and Tang San walked over, their eyes filled with helplessness.

"How can you joke about life and death? Your loved ones would be heartbroken. From now on, you are not allowed to say such things."

"I won't say it again."

Tang Wutong blinked playfully, though she felt a bit nervous inside. Seeing Lin Yi's power erupt earlier and still fail to match the God of Destruction, she feared this situation would be difficult to handle.

"What is there to be afraid of?"

Lin Yi smiled again.

"I just wanted to test the extent of this fused power. Since the power of three Soul Rings fused together can reach the level of a Level 5 God, if three martial souls were fused together, wouldn't it achieve an even greater effect?"

"That is a gamble, but if it succeeds, there will be a chance."

Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up. "Back then, when Wutong and I joined forces, we had a martial soul fusion skill. But because you have three martial souls, you might be able to form a martial soul fusion skill by yourself, perhaps even without needing external help."

"Then that settles it."

Lin Yi spread his hands once more. "Although I know the conditions for a martial soul fusion haven't been met yet, I will certainly master it within two days. Only then will we have a sliver of a chance against the avatar of Destruction."

"Then I'll leave the hard work to you."

Tang San nodded at Lin Yi. "I will also reach out to the God of Goodness and other gods willing to cooperate with us."

"By gathering everyone's strength, we will surely be victorious."

Xiao Wu placed her hand on Tang San's shoulder and nodded gently. "Regardless of life or death, our family will be together."
