[Goddess of Life]: Speaking of which, if Chen Yu ever falls for a girl, he has to let his godmother meet her. I've heard that normal parents vet their children's partners.
[Goddess of Life]: I want a grandchild, too. Xiao Zi feels the same way, right? @God of Destruction 罒ω罒
[God of Destruction]: ...
[Xiao Chenyu]: ...
[Xiao Chenyu]: Godmother, why are you worrying about that now? I'm ten! Getting pressured to marry wasn't enough, so now I'm being pressured to have kids?
[Goddess of Life]: Isn't it only natural for parents to worry about their children's marriages?
[Goddess of Life]: Xiao Zi thinks so too, right?
[God of Destruction]: Mm.
[Xiao Chenyu]: Godfather, what do you mean by just saying "mm"? Shouldn't you say something to help me out? If Godmother's threatening you, blink twice!
[Goddess of Life]: Xiao Zi?
[God of Destruction]: ...Listen to your godmother.
[Goddess of Life]: See? I'm absolutely right. (￣y▽￣)~* covers her mouth and snickers
[Xiao Chenyu]: ...
[Xiao Chenyu]: Henpecked!
[God of Destruction]: What did you say?
[Xiao Chenyu]: I said you really are the Divine Realm's model husband, Godfather. The very paragon of virtue among men in the Divine Realm. You and Godmother are a match made in heaven!
[Will of Douluo Planet]: Hahahahahahahaha! The Avenger chickened out—instantly! Even his flattery is dripping with a desperate will to survive! (≧∀≦)
[Will of Douluo Planet]: By the way, seriously, Avenger, do you want a wife?
[Xiao Chenyu]: That's enough already!
Xiao Chenyu's forehead was covered in black lines.
Once this Douluo Planet girl got going, she never stopped talking.
If he didn't cut her off, she'd list every woman she knew who could take human form.
But the moment he sent that message, a brand-new system notification suddenly appeared on the chat group panel.
[ Ding! Titan Giant Ape has joined the Avengers Chat Group! ]
Xiao Chenyu's fingers froze in midair.
"Titan Giant Ape?"
He stared wide-eyed at the prominent system notification on the screen, his thoughts racing.
"If it can join the Avengers, then the Titan Giant Ape must be another victim of Tang San's schemes."
"I just don't know which point in time this Titan Giant Ape is from. The one who sacrificed himself for Tang San?"
[Will of Douluo Planet]: Ooh, a newcomer! Welcome, welcome! ٩(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
[Will of Douluo Planet]: Tang San's luck took a hit earlier, and the Chat Group unlocked some of its power. It was just enough to bring in a new member.
[Titan Giant Ape]: Looks like the last time you messed with Tang San, Avenger, the results were immediate.
[Will of Douluo Planet]: Oh, and Avenger, you don't have to worry about the hassle of welcoming newcomers. The Chat Group automatically fills new members in on what happened, so you don't have to explain everything from scratch each time.
[Will of Douluo Planet]: The group master really did think things through when designing this feature. ʕ•͈⚇•͈ʔ
[Man Faced Demon Spider]: Group master! Amazing!
[God of Destruction]: Titan Giant Ape? That gorilla? Wasn't it one of Tang San's people?
[Goddess of Life]: Well, there must be a reason it was able to join the Avengers.
[Goddess of Life]: Whoever they are, anyone Tang San has wronged is our ally.
[Goddess of Life]: Anyway, welcome to the group, new friend.
Sure enough, the next second, a deep, honest voice boomed through the chat.
[Titan Giant Ape]: Avenger! Which one of you is the Avenger?
[Titan Giant Ape]: Please, save Sister Xiao Wu! Make her stay away from Tang San! That scumbag doesn't deserve to be with Sister Xiao Wu!!!
[Titan Giant Ape]: I'll get down on my knees for you! I really have no other choice! I can only beg you!!!
Xiao Chenyu stared at the string of exclamation marks on the screen. The urgency behind them left him stunned for a beat.
Sister Xiao Wu?
The only one who'd call her that was the Forest King of the Star Dou Great Forest—the Titan Giant Ape, Er Ming.
He was one of Xiao Wu's two most loyal protectors, alongside Da Ming, the Sky Azure Bull Python.
The Titan Giant Ape was Xiao Wu's most faithful companion in the Star Dou Great Forest, where she had lived after taking human form as a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
Er Ming was a simple, honest giant with strength to spare, but whenever he was around Xiao Wu, he was always in "little brother Er Ming" mode.
Still, Xiao Chenyu wasn't sure which point in time this Er Ming came from.
Was he still a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast who hadn't ascended to godhood, or had he already become a divine official serving under Tang San?
Before he could ask, the Will of Douluo Planet jumped in first.
[Will of Douluo Planet]: Ahem. Newcomer, don't you know the rules? (ºOº)
[Will of Douluo Planet]: When you ask the Avenger for help, what's the first thing you should do? Surely you know!
[Man Faced Demon Spider]: Red packet! Red packet! Red packet!
[Titan Giant Ape]: Red packet? What red packet? I don't know...
[Will of Douluo Planet]: It's a welcoming gift for the Avenger! You're asking him for help without bringing a gift? Don't you have any shame? (▼皿▼#)
[Will of Douluo Planet]: It's a fine tradition in our Chat Group!
[Will of Douluo Planet]: Me, Destruction, Life, and Little Spider have all sent the Avenger red packets. You figure out what to do—you can't break the rules.
[Man Faced Demon Spider]: No red packet, no saving Xiao Wu! o(´^｀)o
Xiao Chenyu watched the Will of Douluo Planet and the Man Faced Demon Spider work in tandem to demand a red packet on his behalf, his expression strange.
Good grief. The Will of Douluo Planet was even better at working the room than he was.
He didn't have to ask for the red packet himself. The two of them had already done it for him.
Still, being treated like the group's favorite was, honestly... pretty great!
[Titan Giant Ape]: Fine! I'll give one! If you can save Sister Xiao Wu, I'll give you whatever you want!
[ Ding! Titan Giant Ape sent you a red packet: "Three Drops of Titan God Blood Bead"! ]
[Titan Giant Ape]: This seems to be about all I can manage right now.
[Titan Giant Ape]: These are Titan God Blood Beads condensed from my own bloodline. Eating one can greatly improve your physical constitution, but each person can only eat one.
[Titan Giant Ape]: Of course, there's also a chance it'll resonate with your Martial Soul, awakening the Titan bloodline within it and causing it to mutate.
The moment Xiao Chenyu saw the red packet, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
Divine blood!
Three drops of divine blood!
Being able to produce divine blood meant that this Er Ming had reached at least the divine level.
This wasn't the Titan Giant Ape from his days as a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. This was a Titan Giant Ape who had already stepped into the divine ranks and condensed divine power—a divine-official-level Titan Giant Ape.
He quickly analyzed the situation.
"Looks like this Er Ming became a god."
[Xiao Chenyu]: Er Ming, I've accepted your red packet. It's a fine welcoming gift, and I'll remember it.
[Xiao Chenyu]: Now, calm down first and take a deep breath, though you probably don't need to breathe in your current state.
[Xiao Chenyu]: Anyway, take your time. Tell us your story. Tell us what happened to Xiao Wu.
[Will of Douluo Planet]: That's right, that's right! Come on, the stage is yours. Tell us your story. It's time for your pity-party segment! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
