The Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud Obtained! I Am the God of Joy!

Looking at Xiao Wu and Ah Yin sleeping inside blood-red cocoons in the small world within his body, Gu Shengge rubbed his brow.

It was not that he felt lonely without anyone beside him for dual cultivation. Rather, without Xiao Wu and Ah Yin, he now had no one to supply him with pleasure points, and his cultivation had suddenly slowed far, far too much.

Never mind. He would head to the Heaven Dou Empire first and get his hands on its divine national treasure, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.

With that thought, Gu Shengge rose from the ground and flew toward the Heaven Dou Empire.

In less than a quarter of an hour, he had already reached the Heaven Dou Empire, and he had not even been traveling at full speed.

Counting back the years, Xue Ye was still a young man now. He wondered whether he had become the emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire yet.

But who cared? As he was now, never mind treating the Heaven Dou Empire as his own backyard-even in Spirit City, he could come and go as he pleased.

Even if Qian Daoliu and every worshipper in the Worship Hall attacked together, they would be no match for him.

All the more so for the Heaven Dou Empire, which did not have even a single Titled Douluo. He could mold it in his hands however he liked.

With a sweep of his divine sense, Gu Shengge instantly located the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.

The treasury had defensive mechanisms?

Sorry, but Gu Shengge tore with both hands, ripping open the space before him.

He stepped inside, and when he appeared again, he was already within the Heaven Dou Empire's treasury.

Looking at his target, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, Gu Shengge put it straight into his small world.

As for the other treasures in the Heaven Dou Empire's treasury, he truly had no interest in them whatsoever.

However, he could take a little from those mountain-high piles of Gold Soul Coins.

After all, while traveling, he had previously been spending the money of the brothers Tang Hao and Tang Xiao.

After more than a year of training on the road, he was penniless.

After he and Tang Hao's group had dealt with the bandits, they had distributed all the money the bandits had stolen to people in need.

So, to avoid being so strapped for money that he had to dine and dash while traveling across Douluo in the future, it would be better to take some Gold Soul Coins.

With that thought, Gu Shengge looked at the mountain-high piles of Gold Soul Coins before him and took a tenth of them.

That tenth was enough for him to squander freely.

Having quietly taken their money and their divine national treasure, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, he had to leave them a gift in return.

Otherwise, would that not make him a freeloader?

With that thought, Gu Shengge vanished from the Heaven Dou Empire's treasury and appeared in its imperial palace.

After appearing in the palace, Gu Shengge swept his hand and laid down a soundproof barrier.

Xue Ye, who had only recently inherited the throne, looked at Gu Shengge, who had suddenly appeared in the palace. Though he was panicking wildly inside, he did not shout or scream.

After all, as emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire, he ought to possess an emperor's bearing.

Besides, the fact that this man could appear in his palace without a sound also showed that his strength was unfathomable.

Against someone with such unfathomable strength, shouting and screaming would accomplish nothing.

Rather than embarrass himself, he might as well maintain the bearing an emperor should have.

"Not bad."

Looking at the relatively composed Xue Ye before him, Gu Shengge smiled.

"I have taken your Heaven Dou Empire's national treasure, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud. I also took some Gold Soul Coins."

"In return, keep this scale safe."

"As long as you crush this scale, I will appear."

"No matter what trouble or crisis your Heaven Dou Empire encounters, I can step in and resolve it."

"Even if dozens of Titled Douluo besiege your Heaven Dou Empire, I can keep it safe and sound."

"You can judge for yourself whether this deal is worthwhile."

"I have not come to discuss this with you. This is not a negotiation, but a notification."

"After all, having taken a treasure belonging to your Heaven Dou imperial family, I cannot simply take advantage of you for nothing."

Looking at Xue Ye sitting dumbfounded in his chair, Gu Shengge produced a palm-sized dragon scale and tossed it into the hands of the still somewhat dazed emperor.

"May I ask how I should address Your Eminence?"

When Xue Ye came back to his senses, he looked at Gu Shengge, who was even younger than himself, and hurriedly lowered his head.

Although Gu Shengge was very young, the abilities he had displayed and the words he had spoken meant that he was definitely a Titled Douluo-level existence.

In fact, even among Titled Douluo, he was one of those at the very pinnacle.

After all, he could tell that Gu Shengge was not someone who boasted. The man had his own pride.

Since Gu Shengge could say that he could keep the Heaven Dou Empire safe and sound even against dozens of Titled Douluo, then he truly possessed the strength to resolve such a situation.

Thus, looking at Gu Shengge, Xue Ye hurriedly rose and bowed in submission.

"I am Joy. You may address me as the God of Joy!"

Looking at the utterly stupefied Xue Ye, Gu Shengge smiled at him, then vanished before his eyes.

Xue Ye watched Gu Shengge disappear into thin air before him, as though he had never appeared at all.

Had the scale in his hands not told him that someone had just been there, he would have thought everything that had happened was a dream.

The God of Joy!

This Eminence certainly is confident, daring to proclaim himself a god.

That ability to appear and disappear out of thin air was beyond even Titled Douluo.

His Eminence Joy was definitely a peerless powerhouse living in seclusion.

To gain one act of protection for his Heaven Dou Empire from such a terrifying existence with merely the national treasure, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, and some Gold Soul Coins was an enormous bargain.

After leaving the Heaven Dou Empire's imperial palace, Gu Shengge wandered aimlessly around its imperial capital.

This time, Gu Shengge did not attract so many gazes as he walked through the crowd. After all, while shopping with Ah Yin, he had already discovered that his charm was being amplified without limit by the God of Joy's power.

So, as he walked through the streets, Gu Shengge wore a mask to avoid unnecessary trouble.

After all, not just any woman could increase his pleasure points.

Even when beautiful women took a liking to him and stayed by his side, his pleasure points still did not rise.

Aside from innate aptitude and potential, Gu Shengge discovered that the pleasure points he obtained as the God of Joy seemed to be related to well-known female characters in Douluo.

At any rate, up until now, besides Xiao Wu, Ah Yin, and Aunt Aya, it was not as though he had never encountered beautiful girls, or girls who were both beautiful and talented.

Apart from those three, no other women had provided him with pleasure points.

So, this was also one of the reasons Gu Shengge chose to wear a mask while shopping.

If you cannot provide me with pleasure points, why are you still coveting me?

He had spent several days exploring Heaven Dou Imperial City, and there really was nothing much left to see.

Since that was the case, he would head to Sea God Island and see just how beautiful Bo Saixi was to have captivated both Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu!
