Tang San Was Furious-And This Still Counted as a Child of Fortune?

Chapter 12: Tang San Was Furious-And This Still Counted as a Child of Fortune?

"System..."

"When will your missions show a shred of humanity?"

Looking at the mission panel, Chu Ge fell silent for a moment, then shook his head helplessly. Tang Wutong was still so young!

She was only a Soul Grandmaster right now, nothing more than a little girl, wasn't she?

Make her submit wholeheartedly?

That would be easy enough to solve-he could give her a beating, for instance. But with his strength, wouldn't one slap smash her to pieces?

How could a tiny light goddess butterfly withstand even a gentle tap from the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand, with its three red Soul Rings?

Splat~

The butterfly shattered!

I'll just have to see whether an opportunity to complete this mission comes up later...

Imagining that scene of the butterfly's death, Chu Ge laughed rather unkindly and could only think that to himself.

Of course, he still very much wanted the reward.

So he would have to complete this practically zero-difficulty mission someday.

"Senior, my name is Tang Wutong."

Being watched by the man before her made Tang Wutong a little embarrassed, and her gaze kept darting away.

She really wanted to know how a master could be this handsome. And since he was Yudie's master, his strength surely couldn't be lacking, either. He was powerful, yet so young and handsome.

A master the whole nation could adore!

And another thing...

Why is everyone staring at me like that...?

Tang Wutong touched her face in embarrassment and quietly lowered her head.

Was there something on her face or not? It was one thing for Yudie to look at her like that, but she hadn't expected this man to do the same...

"My name is Chu Ge."

"Don't call me senior. I'm not that old. Call me Brother Chu."

Chu Ge came back to his senses and looked at her with a friendly smile, signaling that she needn't be so reserved.

As a transmigrator, he still considered himself part of the same generation as Tang Wutong and the others. Being called senior never felt quite fitting.

There was nothing he could do about Yudie inexplicably taking him as her master, but Tang Wutong and everyone else should keep things more conventional.

After all, he was only twenty.

"All right, Brother Chu."

Tang Wutong nodded like a chick pecking at grain.

She was nothing if not willing to listen, and she was also trying to hide her face, which had already grown rather hot, from the man before her and her roommate.

Being stared at so closely...

Who wouldn't feel embarrassed?

Realizing that she had lost her composure, Tang Wutong couldn't help thinking this.

"Yudie, make sure you get along with your new friend."

"Wutong, our Yudie didn't have many friends before. You'll be spending time together from now on, so please look after her."

Chu Ge's gaze settled on each of them in turn, a smile on his face.

"I understand, Master."

Standing beside him, Huo Yudie nodded obediently and answered earnestly.

"I'll get along well with Yudie, too."

Tang Wutong stood up beside them as well, putting away her awkward feelings and expression. Looking at the older man and the younger girl before her, she spoke with a smile.

Getting along harmoniously.

That was something every outstanding girl should do. Besides, for some reason, she really did find it easy to feel close to this roommate.

"Perhaps..."

"She's the dear sister I was destined to meet."

Tang Wutong's eyes shone as she spoke with a bright smile.

What she completely failed to notice, however, was that she hadn't said a single word about Chu Ge, who stood beside Huo Yudie.

Meanwhile.

In the Divine Realm, inside the Sea God Hall.

"Something's wrong."

"On a scale of ten, this is 114514 points of wrong."

A man with flowing blue hair stood frowning, a fish spear in his hand.

"What's happened over on the Douluo Continent?"

"It won't affect my changes to the Douluo Continent, will it?"

He paced back and forth through the hall, anxiety welling up in his heart as he muttered.

This was none other than that very man: a God Realm Enforcer, one of the Five Great God Kings of the God Realm Committee, holder of the two Divine Positions of Asura God King and Sea God-Great God King Tang, Tang San.

Of course, he also had titles such as wife-doting fanatic and pure as ice and jade. Oh, and he was a loving father to his daughter, too.

"Gone?"

"The Child of Destiny... is lost?"

Tang San focused his perception on the Douluo Continent, seeking the fluctuations of fortune he had sensed so many times before, only for his expression to change.

Especially when he discovered that the glittering planet of the Douluo Plane had vanished into nothingness-he could hardly believe his eyes.

Gone!

The Douluo Continent's Child of Fortune was dead?

"How is that possible!"

"How could my arrangements go wrong, even in the lower realm?"

This was the first time anything like this had happened since he became a deity. His plans had suffered such an enormous upheaval.

The very reason he had cultivated his daughter's interest in the Douluo Continent, ultimately sending her there in secret, was so she could meet that newly born child chosen by destiny.

Only then could he consolidate his position in the Divine Realm, contend with that disagreeable wretch, the God of Destruction, and truly rule the Divine Realm...

No, only then could he preserve harmony in the Divine Realm, and only then could he set the Douluo Continent on a path of flourishing prosperity. Tang San's vision was truly vast.

But now, the Child of Fortune was dead.

"How could this happen...?"

Tang San knitted his brows, an instant headache coming on. If an ordinary person died, then they died. He wouldn't care in the slightest.

But if that Child of Fortune, Huo Yuhao, had died, the impact on him would be immense, whether it concerned the revival of his own Tang Sect or the balance of power on the continent.

"How did he die? Could it be because..."

"I arranged some tragic experiences for him, and went a little too far?"

Tang San's mind whirled through the possibilities, and he eventually arrived at a likely explanation.

He knew Huo Yuhao's family circumstances. A Dai Family Disciple whose father was the White Tiger Duke, but neither he nor his mother was favored...

Originally, that was all there was to it. But Tang San had suddenly felt that this was a little too merciful, so he had intervened. He hadn't expected this outcome.

"I only wanted to make his life a little more miserable and have his mother die, so he'd appreciate my kindness more in the future. How could he just be gone?"

"What happened to the Child of Fortune's supposedly tenacious vitality?"

Tang San's face was livid.

It wasn't as if he wouldn't heal Huo Yuhao's mother and bring her back to life. He had merely given him a tiny little trial, and he couldn't even withstand that?

This was nothing more than a minor trial!

If he couldn't endure even a trial like this, how could Tang San entrust his daughter to him? He was supposed to become his son-in-law.

As for whether he had gone too far, heh-setting the facts aside, weren't these all Huo Yuhao's own problems?

What wrong had he, Tang San, committed!
