The Real Protagonist, Su Yiner

[Not long after you returned home from your encounter with Ah Yin, the Snow Empress and Ice Empress noticed something was off. When they learned what had happened between you and Ah Yin, they regretted not going along.]

[Doing that in front of someone else—four people together, no less—would have been embarrassing. But it was better than getting no action from you at all.]

[The Snow Empress and Ice Empress tried everything to get you going again. They even fed you Spring Autumn Sausage version 2.04.]

[The higher their hopes, the harder they fell. After three days and nights of trying without the slightest response from you, the Snow Empress and Ice Empress clung to each other and wept.]

[You watched that utterly out-of-character display, then looked at Ah Yin, who was smugly rubbing her belly like someone who had won it all.]

[You fell silent. You said nothing. You thought it over and decided to run. This time, though, the Snow Empress and Ice Empress insisted on coming with you. You were helpless, but when both threatened to die if you left them behind, you could hardly go that far.]

[In the fifteenth year of the Simulation, the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament ended. You stormed Spirit Hall, reenacting Tang Hao's famous rescue from the original story.]

[You took Tang San and Xiao Wu away. You sent Xiao Wu back to the Star Dou Great Forest and slipped Tang San into Slaughter City.]

[You gave the King of Slaughter a harsh lesson in how cruel the world could be and picked up the Asura Demon Sword while you were at it.]

[To your surprise, the Asura Demon Sword did not reject you. Strictly speaking, as an outsider, you should not even have been able to touch it.]

[After thinking it over, you concluded that the Asura God King wanted you to work for him. You did not mind much. All you had to do was hand the Asura Demon Sword to Tang San when the time came.]

[You gladly accepted it, then gave the King of Slaughter another beating. Once you were sure he could later be used to set up a sacrifice for Tang San, you walked out of Slaughter City without a single obstacle.]

[While Tang San trained, your child with Ah Yin was born. She was another daughter, with a face identical to Su Yiner's. You named her Su Yiner on the spot.]

[This time, Su Yiner inherited 1340% of your Foundation. The moment she was born, she drew the Life God King's attention.]

[Your daughter Su Yiner was the Child of Nature, the Human Race's Child of Fortune, the Soul Beast Race's Child of Fortune, Douluo Star's Child of the Plane, and the Life God King's Successor—all at once.]

[When the Life God King turned her attention to Su Yiner, she also noticed you, her father. Seeing your family of five living happily together, she brought the Destruction God King over to watch.]

[The Life God King, Destruction God King, Asura God King, and Sea God were all watching you. You had no idea. You were too busy trying to work out why your daughter was so extraordinary that she had been chosen as the next Life God King from birth.]

[Watching you bond with Su Yiner made the Snow Empress and Ice Empress jealous. They wanted to have your children too, but unfortunately, your body still showed no response at all.]

[In the eighteenth year of the Simulation, you left with Tang San after he emerged from Slaughter City. You also gave him the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud as a coming-of-age gift.]

[Tang San was deeply grateful. You stayed out of what followed and let Xiao Wu sacrifice herself for him.]

[After the matter with Tang San and Xiao Wu came to an end, Tang San returned home in a daze, carrying Xiao Wu, who had taken the form of a rabbit.]

[At eighteen, Tang San had already become a Titled Douluo, yet he looked like an old man nearing death.]

[You did not interfere much with Tang San's path from there. You estimated that he was close to becoming a god. To be safe, you quietly slipped the Asura Demon Sword into his possession, lest the Asura God King think you had taken his payment without doing the work.]

[You had not actually been paid. You were working for the Asura God King for free. Still, you did not dare gamble on whether that petty god would make trouble for you.]

[What you did not know was that even if the Asura God King wanted to make trouble, he would not dare show it with the Destruction Scepter and Life Ancient Tree thrust in his face.]

[Your daughter was only three years old when you successfully began riding her coattails.]

[What gave you a headache was that Su Yiner had already begun displaying extraordinary abilities, even though her Martial Soul had yet to awaken.]

[Most strikingly, Soul Power was so dense wherever Su Yiner went that it nearly turned liquid. Plants and animals of every kind were unusually fond of her. She could even go out to buy a candied hawthorn skewer and stumble upon a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone.]

[You grew rather despondent. From what you had seen, Su Yiner's prospects were worlds apart from those of her penniless, unsupported father.]

[In the nineteenth year of the Simulation, Tang San cleared the Imperial Palace Dungeon alone, sending Qian Renxue, Ci Xue, and Snake Lance fleeing.]

[In the twentieth year of the Simulation, Tang San had reached level ninety-six before setting out for Sea God Island. You had Ah Yin, the Snow Empress, and the Ice Empress sacrifice themselves to his Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul so he could bring more people along when he later ascended to the Divine Realm.]

[None of the three women objected. But when Tang San learned that, besides Ah Yin, his other two godmothers were also Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, he nearly lost his composure.]

[After all, apart from you, Tang San, and Su Yiner—three humans who were not exactly purebred—no one else in the family was human.]

["Easy, Tang San. You know now, don't you? All right, let's get the sixth, seventh, and eighth Soul Rings for your Second Martial Soul while we can. You can revive everyone after you ascend." You were calm. You had poured a great deal of effort into getting this far. Fortunately, Tang San had not disappointed you—at least, not yet.]

[Su Yiner could barely bear to part with Ah Yin. She was only a little over five years old.]

[Tang San cared deeply for his half-sister, who shared his mother. Seeing Su Yiner cling to Ah Yin and refuse to let go, he suggested, "Ming Father, why not have my godmothers sacrifice themselves first and leave Mother until last? That shouldn't affect my becoming a god."]

[You refused. You said Tang San needed to clear Sea God Island as quickly as possible, and that a few years apart would not be a problem. In the end, Tang San could not change your mind and accepted the three women's sacrifices.]
