A figure suddenly appeared atop the mist-shrouded God Realm. Clad in a deep purple hooded robe that obscured his face, he could only be identified by the two flickering red lights where his eyes should have been. The newcomer was none other than the God of Destruction, one of the Five Great God Kings of the God Realm.
The God of Destruction looked at Tang San, whose face was twisted in impotent fury, and questioned him in a hoarse voice.
"Tang San, what did you do? Why has the God Realm lost contact with the Douluo Continent? You had better not deny it. I can sense that you have lost a portion of your divine power."
Tang San's breathing abruptly stalled. For a moment, he did not know how to explain himself. Yet judging by the God of Destruction's aggressive manner, he clearly had no intention of letting the matter drop. Left with no choice, Tang San could only force a bitter smile and say,
"I don't know why this happened either."
"As for the portion of divine power I lost, you should know that Little Seven secretly went to the Douluo Continent while Xiao Wu and I were not paying attention. To ensure her safety, I stored that portion of my divine power within her. But now that the God Realm has lost contact with the Douluo Continent, that portion of my divine power has vanished as well."
The God of Destruction gave Tang San a long look before saying coldly,
"I will convene every member of the God Realm Committee and investigate why the Douluo Continent has lost contact with the God Realm. As for the divine power you lost, it had better be as you claimed—for Little Seven's protection. Otherwise, you should know the price of interfering with the development of the Douluo Continent without authorization!"
After saying that, without waiting for Tang San to respond, the God of Destruction vanished in a flash.
Destruction knew that Tang San was using his affection for Tang Wutong as an excuse, hiding behind his biological daughter as a shield. However, without concrete evidence, no matter how much Destruction disliked Tang San, he could not make a move against him recklessly.
Tang San's eye twitched slightly as rage welled up in his heart, and he roared furiously within his mind.
Destruction! We are both God Kings, yet you dare treat me with such an attitude. You have earned yourself a death sentence! Just wait. Once I bring the Child of Destiny of the Douluo Continent under my command, the day you, Destruction, are destroyed will come!
"What happened? Why do I feel like I've become different? It's as though something that had been restraining me suddenly disappeared."
Looking at the Diary standing quietly within her mind, Wang Dong'er was filled with uncertainty and surprise.
Just then, as though she had suddenly thought of something, Wang Dong'er's eyes instantly brightened.
"Could it be that the safeguard Tang San left in my soul was absorbed by the Diary? Just like when the souls of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and Electrolux tried to enter Huo Yuhao's mind and were absorbed by the Diary?"
Wang Dong'er suddenly realized that when she thought of Soul Tools now, she no longer felt instinctive disgust as she had in the past. Instead, she was filled with curiosity toward those high-tech items.
Wang Dong'er had never understood why the sight of a Soul Tool made her feel nauseated, but after reading Huo Yuhao's diary, she finally understood the reason.
It had to be the restriction Tang San had placed on her soul, making her capable of feeling favorably only toward the Tang Sect's hidden weapons. Meanwhile, she had been completely unable to accept high-tech items like Soul Tools, which could bring people countless conveniences.
But not anymore. Without Tang San's interference, she could finally be herself.
Since Huo Yuhao could escape Tang San's schemes by going to the Sun Moon Empire, could she use the same method to avoid fading away and ultimately being fused by Tang San into that stitched-together monster called Tang Wutong?
At the thought of that possibility, Wang Dong'er's breathing grew rapid.
Now that she knew the truth, that Tang San whom she had never met was not her father at all. Instead, he would become the enemy who murdered her.
Wang Dong'er's life had only just begun. She absolutely refused to completely lose herself and become a part of someone else!
Just as Wang Dong'er made her decision, Titan came again to urge her to pack quickly and leave for Shrek Academy. This time, Wang Dong'er did not throw a tantrum. Instead, she finished packing in the shortest possible time and set off with Titan.
As Titan flew with her toward Shrek City, Wang Dong'er suddenly asked,
"Second Father, can I choose not to go to Shrek Academy?"
Was this girl Dong'er about to throw another tantrum?
Titan felt bitter inside. Now he finally understood why his elder brother Niu Tian had refused to personally escort Wang Dong'er no matter what. Niu Tian had probably guessed this would happen long ago, which was why he had dumped this troublesome task on him! And Tang San too, hiding in the God Realm and playing the good guy while leaving this sort of matter for him and Niu Tian to handle!
However much Titan grumbled inwardly about Tang San and Niu Tian, there was no turning back now. He absolutely could not do anything that would ruin Tang San's Millennium Plan. What if he disrupted Tang San's plans and made Sister Xiao Wu dissatisfied with him?
Thinking of this, Titan let out a helpless sigh and forced himself to say,
"Dong'er, Shrek Academy is the number one academy on the Douluo Continent. The teachers there are very capable, and there are also people your age. Becoming companions with your peers and forming bonds with them will be greatly beneficial to you."
Become companions with people my age? Form bonds?
To you and Tang San, the only purpose of me, this 'tool' that was created, is probably to form an intimate relationship with Huo Yuhao, isn't it?
Once I truly become Huo Yuhao's girlfriend, just as he wrote in his diary, then my fate will be sealed. I will be destined to be replaced by that so-called Tang Wutong!
But things were different now. The Divine Sense Fragments Tang San had hidden in her soul had already been absorbed by the Diary Copy. That meant she had every chance of escaping that fate!
Then I'll let you think I'm still the same Wang Dong'er for now. Once you believe I'll obediently develop according to your plan, I'll leave Shrek Academy!
Seeing that Wang Dong'er no longer spoke of refusing to attend Shrek Academy, Titan mistakenly assumed that she had accepted the arrangement and let out a deep sigh of relief. He immediately brought her to Shrek City at top speed. After making all the necessary arrangements, he hurriedly left in something of a panic.
After Titan left, Wang Dong'er used her status as the Young Sect Master of Clear Sky Sect to ask the teacher in charge of assigning dormitories a question.
According to that teacher, Titan had specifically sought him out before leaving and told him that if there was anyone from the Tang Sect among this year's new students, Wang Dong'er was to be assigned to the same dormitory as that person.
Disguised as a boy and dressed like a spirited young man, Wang Dong'er politely bid the teacher farewell. She raised her head to look at the sky, but her large pink-blue eyes were filled with coldness.
Even if I have to face a God King, I, Wang Dong'er, will never yield to fate! Even if resistance means death, I will burn the last of my life and let the God King see that humans can be angry too!
Dong'er is Dong'er, and she will never be Tang Wutong!
