When I Came In, I Saw Chang Wei Beating Laifu!

"Fight? No, a princess would never fight her Holy Knight, and Yun Ji's Holy Knight would never hurt Yun Ji!"

Little Mermaid Yun Ji's eyes were red from crying, but she was exceptionally resolute at this moment.

Xu Huxiao frowned, but the conviction in his eyes did not waver in the slightest.

"Looks like you still haven't realized how cruel reality is. Soul Beasts are nothing more than resources for Soul Masters to grow stronger."

Then, his first Soul Ring lit up. The sleeves around his arms instantly burst apart, revealing a pair of enormous platinum Black Dragon-patterned arms.

Triple Amplification, Gluttonous Grip!

I've already seen through you, yet you're still trying to deceive me with some princess and Holy Knight story. How naïve.

His arms finished expanding. The distance between them was very short, and Xu Huxiao stepped forward, his amplified dragon-patterned right arm directly gripping the Little Mermaid's neck and effortlessly lifting her up.

"Now, you..."

Just as Xu Huxiao was about to intimidate her and shatter the naïveté of this Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast—

Buzz—

Another change occurred!

It was as if touching the little girl had triggered some condition. A piece of information suddenly appeared in his mind.

\n[Seed of Prophecy]: When you obtain Princess Yun Ji's 'sincere heart,' you will be able to view it.\n

What was this now?

Xu Huxiao focused his attention on it, and then one piece of information after another appeared:

\n[Whoever rescues you from the Demon Clam will become the sole hope of the Lost Kingdom—Atlantis, the future savior of the Douluo Continent, and your Holy Knight.]\n

\n[Remember Mother's words. Go, Little Yun Ji.]\n

\n[This is the prophecy left behind by the Creator God, as well as your destiny, Little Yun Ji.]\n

\n[Mother left the Seed of Prophecy in your consciousness. As long as the Holy Knight appears and your fates become bound together, he will definitely understand the moment he sees you. Then, he will follow destiny's guidance and guard you, protect you.]\n

[...]

[So, a hundred thousand years have already passed...]

\n[Holy Knight who sees this information, believe me. From this moment onward, the gears of destiny have already begun to turn.]\n

[I know souls from other worlds are always suspicious, but the threads of fate have already connected you. Don't worry, this is not a bad thing. This is your legendary path.]

\n[Go, child. I have left three pieces of information within Little Yun Ji's Martial Soul. They will unlock one by one when Little Yun Ji reaches Soul Elder, Soul King, and Soul Sage.]\n

[These three pieces of information will guide you onward.]

\n['Playing God? I refuse to believe in destiny. Every bit of my fate has been carved out by myself.']\n

\n[Such strong willpower. As expected of the Holy Knight.]\n

[But rest assured, destiny is not predetermined, because this is merely an insignificant beginning...]

Destiny?

How utterly ridiculous!

"Was I hit by some kind of spiritual soul skill? Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts truly do have some unusual abilities, but trying to fool me with this? Too naïve."

Xu Huxiao snorted coldly. Soul Beasts were all cunning, yet she was still trying to pull some trick.

Xu Huxiao was certain that aside from receiving several pieces of information, his mind had not been affected in any way.

However, the words "soul from another world" made Xu Huxiao wary.

How had the other party determined that he came from another world?

"You left information in her Martial Soul? Then let me see exactly what information is inside this Mermaid's Martial Soul."

Xu Huxiao looked at Xiaomei the mermaid in his hand, narrowing his eyes.

After all, his Eye of Omniscience could obtain all of the other party's information!

Thus—

He stared at the stubborn Xiaomei the mermaid in his hand. Three seconds later, her information appeared.

Then Xu Huxiao concentrated on the [Martial Soul] entry.

The little girl's Martial Soul information appeared, followed by more pieces of information gradually popping up.

[Have you already reached Soul Elder? Holy Knight, I'm sure you and the princess have experienced many interesting adventures together.]

No. I merely used my cheat to learn this information ahead of time, Xu Huxiao thought mockingly.

[Then you are qualified to learn the first piece of information. Make preparations in advance.]

\n[First piece of information: At this very moment, the Douluo God Realm has already been corrupted by unknown Evil Weirdness. All deities have fallen. You must stay far away from anything related to God, especially his followers. These so-called believers of God are no longer normal!!!]\n

[The sign is that at midnight, a ring of eerie green light will appear around the moon. The halo will last for fifteen minutes and be clearly visible.]

[Before long, a group of Weird Soul Masters carrying faith in Evil Weirdness will appear on the continent, spreading its beliefs and corrupting the Douluo Continent.]

\n[Remember, when approaching a Weird Soul Master, the purple gemstone on Princess Yun Ji's Five-Colored Bracelet will light up.]\n

[Also, if you encounter a Weird Soul Master, you must be careful!]

[Because these Weird Soul Masters cannot be killed!!!]

Xu Huxiao frowned. Was this supposed to scare children? Then he continued focusing his thoughts on the Martial Soul entry, wanting to keep reading.

Three seconds later, another piece of information appeared.

[Has Princess Yun Ji reached Soul King already? What a cause for celebration. Holy Knight, I'm sure your cultivation is already very powerful by now.]

Not at all. I'm only a level-thirteen Soul Master newbie, Xu Huxiao could not help complaining.

Exposing this so-called predetermined destiny scam in advance left him very satisfied, because he had always believed there was no such thing as fucking destiny.

As Xu Huxiao grumbled inwardly, more information appeared.

[I believe you already know the danger of Weird Soul Masters. Here is some good news for you.]

[Weird Soul Masters are not entirely immortal. After seven fatal attacks, they will completely dissipate.]

\n[The reason I did not tell you earlier was because your cultivation was too weak at the time. Without the attack power of a Soul King-level Soul Skill or above, trying to eliminate a Weird Soul Master would be extremely dangerous.]\n

[Now, Holy Knight and princess, you may learn the second piece of information.]

[I hope you have not yet seen the pitch-black halo around the sun. The same words apply: make preparations in advance.]

\n[Second piece of information: As the corruption of the unknown Evil Weirdness deepens, seven Weird Gods who seek to devour the Douluo Continent have been born in the Douluo God Realm. However, due to the barrier between worlds, their power can hardly affect the continent directly. Therefore, the seven Weird Gods selected their respective spokespersons from among their believers—their sole Weird God Envoys—to fulfill their evil wishes.]\n

[That is: spread faith in Evil Weirdness and reap the lives of all living beings!!]

\n[The sign of the seven Weird Gods' birth is that at noon, a pitch-black halo will appear around the sun. It will last for fifteen minutes and be clearly visible.]\n

\n[After undergoing mutation, these seven Weird God Envoys will gradually gain the power of God and possess the same immortality. You must be careful.]\n

Sure enough.

The more the story went on, the more absurd it became. Xu Huxiao did not believe it at all.

These stories might fool Blue Star natives who had never read the original Douluo story.

But trying to fool him could only be called incredibly stupid.

Still, it was like reading a story. Even though he did not believe it, Xu Huxiao was rather curious about what came next and what other absurd tale it would tell.

Then he activated the Eye of Omniscience again and focused his thoughts on the Martial Soul entry. Three seconds later, another piece of information appeared.

[Have you already reached Soul Sage? What a...]

Hm?!

Why was there no more? Didn't it say there was one more piece of information? Come out already, I'm still waiting to see the rest of the story.

Yet no matter how Xu Huxiao stared, no more information emerged.

"Could it be that it couldn't make up any more? How utterly absurd. It turned out to be an unfinished prophecy. Ridiculous!"

Xu Huxiao scoffed at the so-called prophecy and did not believe a word of it.

But even if the so-called prophecy and destiny were fake, the Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast in his hand was real.

A dangerous glint appeared in his eyes as he looked at the little Mermaid in his grasp.

"Submit to me. It is your only choice."

"No! Mother said the princess and the Holy Knight are equals. You can't treat Yun Ji like this!"

Though she was at his mercy, Yun Ji was not afraid in the slightest. Instead, she remained exceptionally resolute.

"Hmph. You refuse to submit? Then I can only let you suffer a little."

As he spoke, Xu Huxiao tightened the five fingers of his right hand, intending to make Xiaomei the mermaid face reality.

"Stop! You little bastard!!"

A deep roar accompanied by powerful black-flame Soul Power forcefully pried open Xu Huxiao's enlarged hand.

"Ah—"

Xiaomei the mermaid Yun Ji fell to the ground. Her beautiful large eyes glistened with tears, and she felt terribly wronged. Not only had she failed to complete the task her mother gave her, but her Holy Knight was also so fierce. Sob...

"Father? I... This..."

Xu Huxiao turned and saw his father standing at the doorway. For a moment, he had no idea how to explain the situation before him.

"Shut up—!"

"Good grief! You went to an auction house with your mother and secretly bought a little girl home. Then you even used violence against her!"

"Are you trying to rebel?! You only obtained your first Soul Ring, and you think your wings have hardened already?! You little brat whose feathers haven't even grown in yet, and you're already trying to fool around?!"

The three questions came crashing down on him, leaving Xu Huxiao somewhat dazed.

Wasn't a Titled Douluo supposed to see through a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast? Why was Father...

"No, Father, listen to me. She is—"

"You still dare argue? Could what I saw with my own eyes be false?!"

The more Xu Bayan spoke, the angrier he became. A flash of light had appeared in his son's courtyard just now, and he had hurried over to see what was happening.

He had not expected to witness this scene.

At this moment, Ning Fengyu also rushed in through the doorway. Her willow brows furrowed as she looked at the scene before her.

"Brother Yan, what happened?"

"Hmph! This is the fine son you spoiled. An indulgent mother ruins her child. He's only six, yet he already knows how to harm little girls and commit such vile, beastly acts!"

"The moment I came in, I saw this brat bullying the little girl he secretly bought. I caught him red-handed. Tell me, shouldn't this brat be beaten?!"

Xu Bayan snorted coldly and swiftly snapped off a piece of spotted bamboo. Then he saw his son's enlarged Twin Arms, tossed aside the thin bamboo in his hand, and directly uprooted an entire thick bamboo stalk. With a sweep of Soul Power, its branches and leaves fell away, leaving behind a bamboo rod as thick as an arm.

"You little brat, take this!"

"You're already this unruly at such a young age. Won't you turn the world upside down when you grow up?!"

In an instant, Xu Huxiao felt an immensely powerful aura erupt from Xu Bayan. Then his vision blurred, and he was lifted upside down by a pair of massive hands.

Father had the cultivation of a Titled Douluo. There was no way he could fail to recognize the Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast before him?!

Then a tyrannical stream of Soul Power entered his body. Xu Huxiao's Twin Arms Martial Soul was directly forced back into his body, his Soul Ring vanished, and his Twin Arms returned to their normal size.

"Wait! Father, she isn't human. She's a transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Bayan paused with the bamboo rod raised. Then Soul Power circulated around his body as he looked toward the little girl sitting on the ground nearby.

After watching her for a while, Xu Bayan looked back at his upside-down son and frowned.

"I can't tell. You little bastard sure know quite a lot. You even know that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts can transform."

Hearing Xu Bayan's words, Xu Huxiao breathed a sigh of relief. His father was far too rash. Without even figuring out what was going on, he only knew how to solve problems with violence.

"Father, I was right, wasn't I? She is—"

"Shut up!!"

"..."

"Human or Soul Beast, do you think I can't tell? This little girl is clearly fucking human!"

"Your old man's Soul Power Level may have dropped by ten levels, but my Titled cultivation is still here. Trying to fool me? Not in a million years!!"

"You little brat behaved terribly, and you're even spouting lie after lie. That adds another crime to your sentence."

"You were supposed to get twenty strokes, but now it's doubled. Forty strokes!"

Smack!
