God Realm, Asura God Temple.

"Asura, your heir really gave me no respect at all."

"My High Priestess is so beautiful, with such great poise, such a fine figure, fair skin, a pretty face, and long legs."

"He actually struck so ruthlessly, going straight for her life with his very first sword strike."

"My High Priestess's thigh was injured and bleeding, and that big whale's whole family was abducted by him too."

"You have to compensate me."

Sea God Poseidon complained nonstop.

As an experienced player who could make anything work, he truly could not understand Qian Xunji's habit of throwing heavy punches at beautiful women.

And that Deep Sea Demonic Whale King—had his brain short-circuited? Or had he slept himself stupid?

After failing his tribulation, he actually sacrificed himself to Qian Xunji.

Where was the pride of the overlord of ocean Spirit Beasts?

Show the same fearless spirit you once had, the spirit of biting Poseidon whenever you were unhappy with him!

Of all things, he chose to sacrifice himself to a continent Spirit Master. What a disgrace to ocean creatures.

It would have been one thing if he sacrificed himself, but he even entrusted his wife and daughter to a male Spirit Master from the continent!

Did he not know that some men on the continent played very wildly? They especially liked mother-daughter outfits and beast-girl traits.

Of course, when it came to playing wildly—

Poseidon: I am the number one god in the Douluo Plane since ancient times. No human or living creature can surpass me.

To Asura God, Sea God's complaints were no different from flirtatious bickering. They had no bite at all.

Qian Xunji had outwitted the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King and made him sacrifice himself. He had some of Asura God's old style.

Since he had obtained both a Spirit Ring and a Spirit Bone, the seventh Asura God Trial naturally counted as passed.

"'Courage is humanity's hymn'—what a fine saying," Asura God thought.

Even when facing an opponent far stronger than himself, Qian Xunji had still dared to draw his sword without retreating a single step.

That action reminded Asura God of the great war in the God Realm long ago. Back then, he too had held the Asura God Sword and faced the crazed Dragon God, who was far stronger than him, without retreating a single step.

He had thought that his heir, Qian Xunji, only knew how to launch sneak attacks, control swords from afar, and bombard his enemies.

He had not expected such a different performance when facing a powerful opponent. It was simply like a completely different person from his initial impression.

"If this brat can always maintain this attitude of daring to draw his sword against the strong without taking a single step back, that would be wonderful," Asura God hoped inwardly.

However, Asura God knew very well that his heir was not that kind of person.

"Asura, if you don't compensate me, I'm not leaving today." Poseidon shamelessly dug in his heels.

"Goodness and Evil have already agreed to my proposal. You will temporarily take over the position of Law Enforcement God."

Asura God's sudden words frightened Poseidon so badly that his eyes turned red and he panted like a bull.

In disbelief, he mechanically turned his head and looked at Asura God, whose lips were curled in a smiling arc.

He had never imagined that Asura God, that bastard, would be so un-godly!

His own heir was about to complete all the God Trials and inherit his Godhood.

He would soon be free, able to leave the God Realm and roam the universe in style.

Yet before leaving, he still had to screw Poseidon over and make him a Law Enforcement God!

"Fuck! The Law Enforcement God of the God Realm has endless work, no benefits to reap, and it's easy to offend people. You, Asura God, are a mighty God King who can suppress those beneath you, but I, the Sea God, am only a First-Level Supreme God. Are you making me a Law Enforcement God so the Seven Original Sin Gods and Seven Elemental Gods can gang up and beat me to death?!"

Sea God Poseidon directly roared in fury.

"Sea God, don't be so loud or so agitated. Work hard. Goodness and Evil both think highly of you." Asura smiled as he watched the Sea God teetering on the edge of collapse.

The Sea God only felt as if the sky had fallen, and now he, the tall one, had to hold it up.

What did it mean that Goodness and Evil thought highly of him? Those two old fellows were also searching for successors, planning to pass down their Godhood together and head to the lower realm to fool around while dating.

These God Kings had all grown sick of working. They just wanted to find someone else to take over the work while they ran off to enjoy themselves.

Especially that Asura fellow—why had he cast such a wide net and searched so eagerly for an heir to pass down his Godhood?

Was it not because the Law Enforcement God had too much work and too few benefits?

Naturally, the benefits here referred to things capable of moving a God King-level powerhouse.

Doing dull, tedious work every day for who knew how many tens of thousands of years—

Even Primordial Gods and God King-level powerhouses in the God Realm would not be able to stand it.

But Sea God Poseidon had no desire whatsoever to take over someone else's mess.

Yet now that things had reached this point, he could only hurry to find an heir in the lower realm, pass down his Godhood, and run away immediately afterward.

And he hoped that Qian Xunji would inherit the Asura God Position and ascend to the God Realm as soon as possible.

That way, Poseidon would no longer have to serve as the Law Enforcement God.

Asura God, who possessed the authority of judgment, was the only suitable choice for the position of Law Enforcement God.

Douluo Plane.

After accepting the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's sacrifice, Qian Xunji brought his wife and daughter into the Ten Thousand Beast Platform Sub-dimension.

The two mother whales, both with cultivation exceeding a hundred thousand years, transformed into human form.

The moment the Demon Empress entered the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, she felt her body relax considerably.

She no longer felt suppressed or watched, nor did she feel as though tribulation lightning could strike her down at any moment.

"Where is this?" she asked.

"You can think of it as the prototype of a god's divine kingdom—an independent sub-dimension separate from the Douluo Plane and belonging solely to me." Qian Xunji answered the Demon Empress's question.

"Since you are the strongest, you will be the manager here from now on."

The Demon Empress looked at the lush forest before her and pointed at herself. "Me?"

It was true that she was a Ferocious Beast with nearly five hundred thousand years of cultivation.

But she was a sea Spirit Beast, not a land Spirit Beast.

In a forest, she might not even be able to display seventy percent of her strength.

He wanted a sea Spirit Beast whose strength was limited to manage land Spirit Beasts?

Under Qian Xunji's lead, the Demon Empress and Lan Fozi arrived at the enormous lake in the center of the forest.

Although it was freshwater, it was not unacceptable. After all, sea Spirit Beasts above a hundred thousand years old were not so delicate.

"You will live here from now on."

Qian Xunji took out an illustrated booklet.

He instructed the Demon Empress and Lan Fozi on what they could eat and what they could not.

Soft Bone Rabbits, white pigs, black pigs, all kinds of chickens, ducks, cattle, and sheep, as well as carp, silver carp, grass carp, and krill from the lake could be eaten freely.

The giant potatoes, corn, and other crops Qian Xunji had obtained from the system could also be eaten whenever they wanted, as a change of taste.

Golden-Haired Lion Mastiffs, Ice-Fire Demon Tigers, Golden Crocodiles, Golden Tortoises, Silver Hero Beasts, Image Beasts, Man Faced Demon Spiders... could not be eaten.

"What do you humans usually eat?" Lan Fozi asked curiously.

Qian Xunji said nothing. He merely summoned a table full of delicacies—one hundred thousand tons of food provided by the system.

Lan Fozi, who could not quickly learn how to use chopsticks, immediately got the hang of using a spoon.

"This sweet-and-sour fish is so delicious. It's sweet and sour."

"This steamed sea bass is good too."

"The fermented rice fish is so tasty."

"The grilled fish and fried fish smell wonderful."

"This boiled crisp fish is so chewy and springy."

Although it was Lan Fozi's first time eating human food, she fell in love with it the moment she tasted it.

She wondered what on earth she had been eating in the sea before. Those sharks were fishy and sour, not tasty at all.

"Sorry, Fozi is still young." Seeing how her daughter had eaten so much that she quickly cleared an entire table of food, the Demon Empress gave Qian Xunji an apologetic look.

"It's fine. A good appetite is a blessing."

As he spoke, Qian Xunji took out cooking utensils, seasonings, and a cookbook, then handed them to the Demon Empress.

Whales ate far too much. He could not keep feeding them food provided by the system.

Otherwise, given enough time, he would have nothing left to eat himself.

He had to make this mother-daughter pair become self-sufficient.

He was not rich enough to raise two gluttons.

For the time being, he shelved his plan to have the Demon Empress drink Child-Mother River Water and give birth to little Deep Sea Demonic Whales.

Qian Xunji left the Ten Thousand Beast Platform Sub-dimension, stepped through the air, swept the area with his divine sense, and turned his gaze toward Sea God Island.

Now that the Demon Empress and her daughter had been settled, it was time to head to Sea God Island and cause trouble.

As for the eighth Asura God Trial, which required him to complete a full set of Spirit Bones, that could wait for now.

After all, the God Trial gave him a full year.
