God Realm, Sea God Mansion.
Boom!
A violent tremor instantly swept through the Sea God Mansion. A pressure surpassing that of an ordinary Level One God blanketed the surroundings, stirring phantom waves.
"Third Brother?"
The rabbit-eared woman looked worriedly at the blue-haired man beside her, her eyes filled with concern.
"...I'm fine," the blue-haired man said softly. Then he shook his head, a faint smile appearing on his face. "Don't worry, Xiao Wu. I merely saw something... interesting."
"Is that so..." The rabbit-eared woman relaxed slightly. She had always placed absolute trust in her husband.
Tang San appeared calm and composed as he looked at the projection of the Douluo Plane before him, but a trace of gloom flashed through his eyes.
An unexpected variable had appeared in the Ten Thousand Year Plan he had devised with his unparalleled wisdom!
After he had looked away from the Douluo Plane for only a moment, the Spirit Devouring Carving Knife that had originally been prepared for the Child of Fortune had somehow fallen into the hands of an unknown person.
Not only that, but the Plane Will of the Douluo Plane had apparently gone mad and even delivered a fairly high-level Remnant Soul into that person's hands!
Had that been all, it would have been one thing. Yet the Plane Will of the Douluo Plane had not stopped there. It had directly divided in half the immense fortune it had accumulated over the past ten thousand years—fortune that should have been used to nurture the Child of Fortune—and bestowed it upon that person!
A second Child of Fortune!
A trace of unease appeared in Tang San's eyes. This feeling of something slipping beyond his control made him deeply uncomfortable.
What a death wish!
With a grim look in his eyes, he silently separated a strand of Divine Sense.
—Since an unknown variable had appeared, then it had to be eliminated... No matter who it was, no one could delay his Ten Thousand Year Plan!
However, just as Tang San's Divine Sense was about to pass through the back door he had left behind and bypass the Douluo Plane's Plane Barrier to enter the Douluo Plane, the next moment...
Boom—!
A tremendous roar suddenly rang out!
Dark Purple Destruction Power instantly shattered Tang San's Divine Sense that was about to descend to the lower realm. Following the connection between the Divine Sense and his Main Body, it even seemed to be trying to suppress him as well!
"Destruction!!!"
Tang San flew into a rage. With a flash, he appeared directly above the mansion. The Sea God's Trident materialized in his hand, and with a strike through the air, he forcibly scattered the surrounding Destruction Power.
The conflict between two members of the God Realm Committee almost instantly enlivened the once-deserted God Realm.
One Deity after another revealed themselves from the shadows, though most merely watched the spectacle with great interest.
Sensing the gazes around him, Tang San's expression shifted unpredictably. He only stared fixedly at the Dark Purple figure in the distance.
Without hesitation, blue-golden radiance surged around him. Sea God Power flowed forth, carrying an inexplicably sacred aura.
"Destruction, what are you trying to do?"
Tang San's words carried a hint of threat. He had never had much fondness for the God of Destruction, who had always opposed his views.
Faced with the aura radiating from Tang San, the God of Destruction gazed at him calmly, utterly ignoring it as he spoke with a hint of seriousness.
"Deities are forbidden from interfering with the lower realms. Sea God... surely you understand that rule? And you were even attempting to kill a Child of Fortune... Do you want to see the plane destroy itself?"
The God of Destruction's aura rose, and the radiance around Tang San began to waver precariously, trembling without end.
Gritting his teeth, Tang San said righteously, "The authority over the Douluo Plane is in my hands. It has nothing to do with outsiders!"
"It is merely jurisdiction. Attempting to interfere with the lower realm and kill a Child of Fortune is already enough for me to convene a God Realm Committee meeting and hold a vote to strip you of that jurisdiction!"
"You..."
Tang San was left speechless, but he quickly regained his composure.
"But I haven't interfered yet!"
"That is why this is a warning!"
The God of Destruction looked at Tang San indifferently. "This is only the first time. Since it is your first offense, I can let it pass. But if there is a next time... then we will meet at the committee."
As soon as he finished speaking, he no longer held back. Dark Purple Destruction Power pressed down, effortlessly crushing the blue-golden radiance around Tang San.
Bang!
Tang San's body trembled as he staggered back several steps. He hastily gripped the Sea God's Trident and forcibly supported himself with divine power. Finally, he struck through the air once more, forcibly dispersing the Destruction Power around him.
After steadying his breathing, Tang San looked up again, only to find that the God of Destruction had vanished without a trace.
"..."
Tang San remained where he was, his expression dark and unreadable.
"Third Brother!"
Xiao Wu flew out from the mansion, her voice filled with concern.
"...I'm fine, Xiao Wu."
Tang San shook his head and returned to the mansion with Xiao Wu.
In the end, he had been too hasty this time and had carelessly drawn Destruction's attention...
Damn it. If he had been able to fully control the Asura God Seat, why would he have been suppressed by Destruction?
And the Plane Will of the Douluo Plane—it had actually refused to follow his arrangements, presumptuously dividing the fortune and nurturing a second Child of Fortune... What a death wish!
No... My Ten Thousand Year Plan absolutely cannot go wrong. I have to think of a way...
Thinking this, he changed the subject in response to Xiao Wu's worried gaze.
"By the way, Xiao Wu, what did you want to ask me just now?"
"This..." Xiao Wu still looked concerned, but seeing Tang San's expression, she ultimately did not press further and simply said what she had wanted to say earlier.
"I only wanted to ask where Xiao Qi has gone these past few days... I haven't seen her for quite some time..."
"Xiao Qi..." Tang San paused, but a flash of unparalleled wisdom gleamed in his eyes!
That was right! There was still Xiao Qi!
The outline of a plan naturally formed in Tang San's heart, and he hurriedly replied, "Don't worry, Xiao Wu. I merely sent Xiao Qi to the lower realm to gain experience."
"She went... to gain experience?"
"That's right. With Da Ming and Er Ming watching over her, as well as my Divine Sense, Xiao Qi will be fine."
As Tang San spoke, he slowly calmed his mind and began connecting with several strands of Divine Sense he had sent to the lower realm long ago.
A moment later, his gaze steadied.
The Douluo Plane had been alerted by his attempted intervention just now. If he acted again, it would definitely notice him, and Destruction would discover it as well.
However, the Divine Sense he had placed in the lower realm long ago would not be affected.
"Hmph, just a mere Child of Fortune. Could he really turn the heavens upside down?"
Tang San snorted inwardly, already having a plan in mind.
Elsewhere, at the God of Destruction's mansion.
The God of Destruction slowly appeared and naturally sat upon his divine throne.
Using his authority as a God Realm Enforcer, the projection of the Douluo Plane appeared before him the next moment.
The God of Destruction examined it when a gentle voice suddenly sounded beside his ear.
"Is this the plane under the Sea God's jurisdiction?"
