Inside the Life Palace of the God Realm.
Sunlight spilled through the glazed dome at the top of the palace, dancing and flickering among the leaves of the Life Ancient Tree to form mottled patches of light and shadow.
A child with a full head of white hair and exquisite features was quietly lying on a soft couch beneath the ancient tree, his eyes closed as he enjoyed this hard-won peace.
He was Li Changsheng, the biological son of the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction, and the existence of the bloodlines of two Divine Kings flowed within his body.
Since his parents were both hopeless at naming things—one called something Little Purple and the other called something Xiao Lu—Li Changsheng simply went ahead and used his name from his past life.
To this, the two of them raised no objections whatsoever.
After all, it was merely a name, and they truly did not care. Once they reached their level, what they cared about most was simply him as a person.
A gentle breeze swept by, bringing the unique, fresh scent of the Life Ancient Tree.
Li Changsheng's breathing was even and long, as though he had melted into one with the entire Life Palace.
As the son of the Goddess of Life, his perception of natural elements far surpassed that of ordinary people, and he could even clearly feel the joy of every single leaf as it unfurled.
Right at that moment, the great doors of the main hall slowly pushed open with a slight creak.
Before Li Changsheng could fully open his eyes, a crisp, melodious voice came from outside the door: "Changsheng, I'm here again!"
Hearing this voice, Li Changsheng instantly understood the identity of the newcomer.
You must know that this was the Life Palace, the dwelling of the Goddess of Life, one of the five Divine Kings.
Looking across the entire God Realm, there were only four people who could enter directly here without the consent of the Goddess of Life.
The Goddess of Life herself, the God of Destruction, himself, and Tang Wutong.
Therefore, who the newcomer was went without saying.
Li Changsheng slowly opened his eyes and cast his gaze toward the girl who was walking toward him.
She was around seven or eight years old, yet she already displayed astonishing beauty.
A head of blue-and-pink long hair hung down like a waterfall, shimmering with a dreamy luster in the sunlight.
Her features were as exquisite as those of a porcelain doll, and her large eyes were clear and bright, as though they were filled with the brilliance of an entire starry sky.
She wore a short white skirt, leaving her two fair, tender calves bare like jade, and every step she took carried a light and lively grace unique to a young girl.
When Tang Wutong arrived before him, Li Changsheng finally sat up and asked somewhat helplessly, "Wutong, why are you here again?"
Tang Wutong's small mouth pudded out, and a hint of grievance instantly welled up in those bright eyes: "What do you mean why am I here again? Are you really that unwelcome to me?"
"It's not that you're unwelcome."
Li Changsheng sighed and said with utter helplessness, "It's just that whenever you come to find me, there's never anything fun to do."
The two of them had grown up together since childhood, and they had long since wandered through all the places in the God Realm that could be visited.
Every time Tang Wutong came to find him, it always ended up with the two of them staring at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what they should do.
Yet unexpectedly, far from being disappointed upon hearing this, Tang Wutong instead revealed a brilliant smile.
She smoothly sat down beside Li Changsheng, her soft skirt gently brushing against his arm, and then said with a mysterious air: "I know a place that is definitely fun."
Li Changsheng turned his head, looked at the smiling girl beside him, furrowed his brow slightly, and asked with a face full of suspicion: "Really? What kind of fun place could you possibly have?"
He truly found it hard to believe.
After all, he and Tang Wutong were both the offspring of Divine Kings, so the entire God Realm had long since been explored by the two of them, save for that forbidden land where the Golden Dragon King was imprisoned.
Unless...
"You aren't thinking of going to the Divine Forbidden Land, are you?"
Li Changsheng asked tentatively before warning, "You definitely can't go there. My mom and dad said that's the place where the Golden Dragon King is sealed, and even they don't easily go near it."
"Of course not!"
Tang Wutong shook her head, the smile on her face growing even more brilliant.
She leaned in closer and lowered her voice as she said, "I always hear mom and dad talk about a place called Douluo Continent. I heard there are tons of interesting things there! How about... we go play on Douluo Continent? It's definitely much more fun than the God Realm!"
Li Changsheng froze in place.
Douluo Continent?
Of course he knew this place.
That was one of the planes governed by the God Realm.
The Angel God and Sea God from tens of thousands of years ago, as well as the current Asura God Tang San, had all ascended from Douluo Continent.
Added to the fact that he was also a transmigrator, his understanding of Douluo Continent far exceeded Tang Wutong's.
Tang Wutong nodded excitedly, anticipation shining in her eyes: "I heard dad say that there are vast continents, endless oceans, all kinds of soul beasts, and kingdoms and sects established by humans there. Unlike the God Realm, where it's just these few places back and forth, I'm almost bored to death!"
Li Changsheng frowned: "But... if we privately descend to the lower realm, will we be discovered by our elders?"
"What is there to be afraid of!"
Tang Wutong patted her chest and said indifferently, "My dad is the Sea God and Asura God rolled into one now, and they're busy all the time—how would they have time to manage me? Besides, aren't your mom and dad Divine Kings too? The God Realm Committee has so many things to handle every day; if we sneak down to play for a few days, they definitely won't notice!"
Li Changsheng still harbored some hesitation: "That may be said, but Douluo Continent is the lower realm after all, and the energy level there is different from our God Realm. Just in case something happens..."
She might not know, but could he possibly not know?
Douluo Continent right now was chaotic beyond measure.
Aside from the Holy Spirit Cult, an organization of evil soul masters, the Sun Moon Empire was also eyeing it covetously.
"What could possibly happen?"
Tang Wutong cut him off and said with utter disdain, "We are the descendants of Divine Kings! Even if we reach the lower realm, we're still top-tier existences. Besides, my mom and dad ascended from Douluo Continent back in the day—that's his hometown, what danger could there be?"
As she spoke, she reached out to grab Li Changsheng's sleeve and shook it gently, a hint of spoiled coquettishness in her voice: "Changsheng, just come with me! How boring it would be for me to go alone, and besides, if we get caught, having you around will help me share some of the blame!"
Li Changsheng looked into her watery eyes and instantly understood: "So this is what you were plotting? Making me take the fall for you?"
"That is not it!"
Tang Wutong's face turned red as she hastily retorted, "I just think that if the two of us go together, it'll definitely be much more fun! Just think about it—Douluo Continent is so big, we can look around everywhere, and who knows, maybe we'll even run into some interesting adventures!"
Li Changsheng fell silent for a moment, his gaze landing on that vibrant Life Ancient Tree in the distance.
To be honest, he was somewhat sick of staying in the God Realm as well.
Although he possessed endless life and formidable power as the son of a Divine King, this day-in-day-out routine truly made him feel somewhat weary.
"Do you really want to go?" He turned his head and looked seriously at Tang Wutong.
"Mm!"
Tang Wutong nodded forcefully and replied, "I want to go so much!"
"Alright then."
Li Changsheng took a deep breath and said seriously, "But we have to make three chapters of agreement: first, we cannot cause too much trouble. Second, you must listen to my words. Third..."
"What's the third?" Tang Wutong asked eagerly.
