The Evil God's Plan! God King Tang San!
A year later, Bibi Dong finally set foot on Sea God Island again.
The Five Great Lords appeared almost simultaneously to greet them, and even the High Priest Bo Saixi came out in person.
Bo Saixi looked at Bibi Dong and nodded slightly. "You're back? Didn't your boyfriend come with you?"
Bibi Dong respectfully replied, "High Priest, I have returned to participate in the upcoming assessment. Changge also has his own Divine Trial, so he did not return with me."
Upon hearing this, Bo Saixi did not press further, but simply nodded again.
Qian Daoliu then looked at Yue Guan and Gui Mei beside him and instructed, "You two take Dong'er to your lodgings to rest first. I'll catch up with my old friend."
The two naturally had no objections. After bowing to Qian Daoliu, they left with Bibi Dong.
On Sea God Mountain.
Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi stood side by side. Qian Daoliu spoke first, asking, "How far has Tang Chen progressed in his Divine Trial?"
Bo Saixi said, "He's progressing very quickly; he's already started the Seventh Trial Red-Level test. At this rate, the later tests shouldn't be delayed too long."
Qian Daoliu nodded. Tang Chen was indeed a person of exceptional talent, but did he know the meaning of the Red-Rank Eight Trials?
Bo Saixi continued, "As for his two grandsons, they are progressing quite well; they are almost finished with the fifth Black-Level Fifth Trial."
Upon hearing Qian Daoliu, feeling bored, asked, "What level are they at now?"
"Tang Hao is level 85, Tang Xiao is level 88 (including rewards)," Bo Saixi said.
Qian Daoliu raised an eyebrow. Tang Xiao had already reached level 88. Such a rate of progress was astonishing even among human Soul Master.
However, they are still not as good as Dong'er and Changge.
On the other side.
Bibi Dong's residence.
Upon learning that Bibi Dong had returned to Sea God Island after a year's absence, Yu Tianqing and his wife, along with Yu Ming, quickly rushed over. After meeting, they naturally exchanged a few words of concern.
Yu Tianqing looked behind Bibi Dong and, noticing that Yu Changge was not there, asked, "Dong'er, didn't Changge come back with you?"
Bibi Dong smiled and shook her head, "Uncle, Aunt, he went to take his Divine Trial, so I came back alone this time."
Upon hearing this, Yu Tianqing did not press further, but instead shifted the topic to Bibi Dong's upcoming assessment.
"Then you should already know the content of this Divine Trial, right? One of the tasks is to fight against your uncle and Shu Yao."
Bibi Dong nodded, clearly already aware of this matter.
With a smile on his face, Yu Tianqing continued, "After this period of training, I have completed my Black-Level Assessment and broken through to Ninety-Fifth Rank, while Shu Yao's Soul Power has also increased to Ninety-Fourth Rank."
Upon hearing their rankings, Bibi Dong said earnestly, "I hope Uncle and Aunt won't go easy on me. I will do my best to pass this assessment."
Yu Tianqing and Yu Shuyao exchanged a glance, and both of them smiled simultaneously.
Rather than relying on others to help them pass the test, they would naturally prefer to see Bibi Dong complete the challenge based on her own abilities.
"Okay, then let's start after you've rested for a bit!"
The Divine Realm.
The Evil Temple.
The Evil God and the Godess of Kindness were leisurely enjoying afternoon tea, with no immediate plans to deal with matters of the Divine Realm. Instead, they chatted idly.
The Godess of Kindness picked up his teacup, took a small sip, then looked at the Evil God opposite him and said with a smile, "Can't you relax a little now that you're finally getting some peace and quiet?"
The Evil God glanced at her, picked up his teacup, took a sip, and slowly replied, "Why am I nervous? I have nothing to worry about."
"Really? Then show me a smile. You always have that long face."
"..."
The Evil God, too lazy to respond to her, was about to continue drinking his tea when his expression suddenly froze, as if he had realized something.
The Godess of Kindness noticed his change and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
The Evil God frowned, a hint of surprise in his voice. "My little cat that I left in the Douluo Continent seems to have been hunted down and killed, and even the Evil God Pearl has been absorbed."
The Godess of Kindness blinked, quickly realizing what the little kitten he was referring to was.
"Dark Demon Evil God Tiger? That guy was actually killed?"
"Hmm, let me see who did it."
As the Evil God spoke, he gently waved his right hand in front of him, and a water mirror instantly condensed. Then, he mobilized his divine power and traced back along the connection left by the Evil God Pearl, and the scene in the water mirror gradually became clear.
Finally, the camera focused on Bibi Dong.
When the Godess of Kindness saw that familiar face, he immediately showed a look of surprise and delight.
"Hey, isn't this the human girlfriend I've got my eye on? I never expected the Sea God to arrange for her to hunt down the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. She's got some nerve!"
She found it increasingly amusing as she spoke, then turned to look at the Evil God.
"Does the Sea God not know that the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger has been corrupted by your Evil power?"
The Evil God did not answer immediately, but stared at Bibi Dong in the water mirror, seemingly considering something seriously.
The Godess of Kindness, however, seemed to have suddenly had a brilliant idea. His eyes lit up, and he said enthusiastically, "Evil, why don't you do what I did and steal the Sea God's successor?"
Upon hearing this, the Evil God finally turned to look at her, gesturing for her to continue.
The Godess of Kindness said with a smile, "Think about it, Asura and the Sea God must have been too bored in the Divine Realm, so they decided to retire. And knowing their personalities, they will definitely pass on the divine artifacts when the time comes."
"But we're different. We plan to return to the Divine Realm afterward and have no intention of handing over our divine artifacts. Wouldn't it be perfect for us to become one god?"
The more she thought about it, the better she felt the plan was.
The Evil God chuckled after hearing this, "That's true, but before making a decision, I need to see if this human named Bibi Dong is truly qualified to be my successor."
After saying that, he slowly closed his eyes, and a wisp of his divine consciousness descended through the water mirror.
A moment later, the Evil God reopened his eyes, a satisfied look on his face.
"Not bad. He has enough talent and a good temperament; he certainly has the qualifications to become a successor."
The Godess of Kindness immediately pressed, "Then when do you plan to unleash the Divine Trial?"
The Evil God shook his head, his tone laced with laziness. "It's not the right time yet. I'll send down the Divine Trial when she reaches Ninety-Ninth Rank. At that time, she can be exempted from the first six tests and can start from the Seventh Trial."
"Even, when she truly becomes a god, I could simply pass the divine position to her."
The Godess of Kindness was taken aback for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh, "You certainly know how to slack off; you're even planning to skip most of the Divine Trial."
The Evil God said matter-of-factly, "With her talent, reaching Ninety-Ninth Rank in the future won't be difficult at all. So why rush to give up the divine position?"
"Besides, if we throw the Divine Trial over there now, won't the Sea God come after us and cause trouble? His strength is second only to our Five Great God Kings; we still have to give him the respect he deserves."
The Godess of Kindness chuckled and bluntly exposed her, saying, "I think you're just a little guilty, which is why you're giving him this face."
The Evil God smiled, offered no rebuttal, and simply picked up his teacup again and took a sip.
Clearly, both deities had their own plans, and neither was willing to easily relinquish their divine artifacts. Now that they had found a suitable successor, they naturally had new ideas.
Sunset City.
Inside the clothing store.
After Yu Changge led Gu Yuena into the shop, he patiently helped her choose clothes. Since Gu Yuena's clothes were already tattered, the two decided to buy more clothes this time.
Gu Yuena didn't seem interested in other colors, mostly choosing white dresses. Yu Changge didn't have any objections, as long as the size was right and she was comfortable wearing them.
Seeing Yu Changge accompanying such a stunningly beautiful young woman to choose clothes, the shop assistant immediately put on a professional smile and proactively approached to ask, "Handsome young man, are you picking out clothes for your girlfriend? Would you like me to give you some advice? I'm a professional!"
Yu Changge glanced at her and said calmly, "If you're a professional, you should be able to tell that she's not my girlfriend."
The shop assistant's smile froze instantly.
She had just watched Yu Changge patiently helping the girl choose clothes and assumed they were a couple. After all, a man who was both patient and willing to spend money seemed like the perfect boyfriend.
Yu Changge directly denied it, which left her somewhat at a loss for words.
Just then, Gu Yuena suddenly looked at the shop assistant curiously and innocently asked, "What's a boyfriend? Can you eat him?"
Shop assistant. "..."
Yu Changge: "..."
The shop assistant was stunned for a moment, then looked at Yu Changge with a strange expression.
This girl doesn't even know who her boyfriend is; could she have been tricked? And this seemingly respectable, handsome guy in front of her—could he really be seducing an innocent young girl?
Yu Changge noticed the change in the shop assistant's gaze, her lips twitched slightly, and she finally realized how superfluous her words had been.
He stopped explaining and quickly let Gu Yuena choose suitable dresses, pants, and underwear. After paying, he picked up the packed clothes and left the clothing store with her.
As soon as they stepped out of the store, he grabbed Gu Yuena's hand and quickly walked towards the other side of the street.
After being pulled along for a while, Gu Yuena finally couldn't help but ask, "Why do you seem so anxious? Also, you still haven't told me what 'boyfriend' really means?"
Yu Changge paused, then explained helplessly, "A boyfriend is someone you like to be close to, like everything about, are willing to give for, and are always willing to stay by your side. And also... never mind, you don't need to know that, kid."
Yu Changge probably knew that the girl in front of him was actually hundreds of thousands of years old.
She can hardly be considered a young girl anymore.
But given the other party's innocent appearance after transforming, he really couldn't say.
Gu Yuena listened attentively, then nodded. "So that's how I feel about you now, then aren't you my boyfriend?"
Yu Changge was both amused and exasperated, and couldn't help but sigh, "Rather than calling me your boyfriend, I'm more like your father now. You don't know anything, and I have to teach you things little by little and take you everywhere."
Gu Yuena blinked, then softly called out, "Dad?"
Yu Changge immediately got goosebumps all over and quickly waved her hands. "No! I was just kidding!"
That one word "Dad" almost reminded him of his cosplay with Bibi Dong. The more Yu Changge thought about it, the more uneasy he felt, and he immediately decided to avoid saying things that could easily be misunderstood in the future.
A distant parallel universe.
The Divine Realm.
What's happening here is completely different from the world of the Douluo Continent.
Xiao Wu has perished!
The lover who had accompanied Tang San all the way has now lost her life. Even though the Divine Realm has countless gods and even with the powerful God King, no one can reverse the current situation.
Tang San, who had become the King of God King, finally made a decision that shocked everyone.
He wants to give up his position as God King and follow in Xiao Wu's footsteps into reincarnation.
When the news spread, everyone was outraged and rushed to persuade Tang San to retract his decision.
"Tang San, have you really thought this through? You're already at the pinnacle of the Divine Realm. Are you really going to give up everything you have just to follow Xiao Wu?"
"Yes, Xiao Wu has perished, but you are still alive. If you also give up your divine position and enter the cycle of reincarnation, what will happen to the Divine Realm?"
"You've come this far, overcome so many difficulties, is this really how it all ends? At the very least, you should think about your family!"
The gods all spoke at once, hoping that Tang San could calm down.
However, Tang San listened in silence, his expression filled with weariness and sorrow. He had already lost Xiao Wu; what meaning would it have to remain in the Divine Realm, even with a supreme position?
He looked at everyone and slowly said, "I know what you mean, but Xiao Wu is gone. What's the point of me continuing to be the God King?"
"From our first meeting to our time together, she had become the most important person in my life. Now that she has passed away, how can I possibly stay here with a clear conscience?"
Tang San's attitude was unusually resolute, clearly indicating that he had seriously considered this decision.
The others tried to persuade him further, but found that no matter what they said, it was difficult to sway his mind.
Just then, Huo Yuhao spoke up, "Father-in-law, you don't have to do this yet. Perhaps Mother has been reincarnated in another world?"
These words startled Tang San slightly, and his previously silent gaze finally showed a change.
Huo Yuhao continued, "Since my mother-in-law has already perished, and we have no way to revive her now, why don't we try to find her in other worlds, just like you revived my mother back then?"
"You can separate your own divine consciousness and let it drift in all directions of the universe. If you happen to find traces of your mother-in-law's reincarnation, wouldn't you be able to bring her back with you?"
Hearing this, Tang San finally began to think seriously.
The reason he previously decided to give up the position of God King was not only because Xiao Wu had already perished, and he could not change this outcome, but also because he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of reincarnation to see if he could make himself stronger.
After all, with Lan Xuanyu ahead of him, even though he is still the supreme number one, he still feels a sense of urgency.
But I definitely can't say that.
Tang San then nodded. "You're right. In that case, I'll start searching."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang San began to divide his divine sense, and strands of divine sense spread out from his body, drifting towards various parts of the universe.
Tang San gazed at the receding divine consciousnesses and said in a low voice:
"If I still can't find Xiao Wu's whereabouts, I'll have no choice but to follow Xiao Wu. Perhaps, by sacrificing my divine position, and relying on the Asura God Position Xiao Wu once shared with me, I can finally find her location."
