Lin Hao: "..."
He rolled his eyes, a little speechless.
"That's enough already. Don't get too deep into character."
"I also know you're from Spirit Hall and you're Pope Bibi Dong's daughter."
He was exasperated, too. The one beside them cosplaying Gu Yuena didn't understand a thing.
Yet this Qian Renxue cosplayer was so immersed that she could say something like that with a perfectly straight face. She really was one of a kind.
And upon hearing those words...
A glimmer flashed through Gu Yuena's eyes.
She confirmed her guess: sure enough, those three temporal rifts were ten thousand years apart. This Xue Qinghe was the Angel God Qian Renxue, while Tang Wutong should be the Butterfly God from ten thousand years ago.
And because she came from the most distant era, no one could know her identity.
The corners of her lips couldn't help curling up slightly.
Across the many times and spaces of the Douluo worlds, everyone reacted differently to the sky screen.
The world of Douluo I.
The imperial palace in Heaven Dou City.
Xue Ye nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
When he first heard that girl say her name was Xue Qinghe, he had already become suspicious.
And now it was confirmed beyond doubt.
"So my crown prince, Xue Qinghe, is the daughter of Spirit Hall's Pope in disguise?"
"Then doesn't that mean Xue Beng is the only child I have left now?"
He went numb. In his old age, he had discovered that his heir had been swapped out like a civet cat for a crown prince.
Who could bear that?
That damned Spirit Hall!
But he couldn't possibly fall out with Spirit Hall, either.
After all, he couldn't beat them.
The happiest of all was the fourth prince, Xue Beng, who had been pretending to be a wastrel all along.
He was wild with excitement. "I told you there had to be something wrong with my eldest brother!"
"Since my eldest brother is someone from Spirit Hall in disguise, doesn't that make me Heaven Dou's sole heir?"
With good fortune suddenly falling from the heavens, Xue Beng felt that today truly was his lucky day. This sky screen was good, really good!
In a corner of Heaven Dou City.
Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo were also dumbfounded. "Now the whole continent knows. It's over. All the young master's years of effort have gone to waste."
Meanwhile, at Spirit Hall.
Inside the Pope's Hall, Bibi Dong couldn't help sneering.
"More likely to ruin things than accomplish anything. Just what I'd expect from that vile spawn. After spending so long undercover, she's been exposed to the entire world just like that."
The Worship Hall.
Qian Daoliu, on the other hand, let out a sigh of relief.
"Since Xue'er's identity has been completely exposed and the undercover plan has failed, she can come back."
"But how do I get Xue'er down from the sky?"
In the times and spaces of Douluo II and Douluo Dalu III: The Legend of the Dragon King.
Everyone was also deeply astonished.
After all, the evil Angel God Qian Renxue's defeat at the hands of Sea God Tang San was a story everyone knew.
Now, the already-deceased Qian Renxue seemed to have come back to life. How could anyone not be surprised?
The world of Douluo II.
"Our ancestor is actually still alive! Wonderful!"
Ye Guyi's eyes reddened.
As someone with the Holy Angel Martial Soul, she had never believed that her ancestor could be evil.
After all, the Angel Martial Soul had always been irreconcilable with evil. Ye Guyi could even increase her Soul Power by purifying evil.
In her eyes, it was simply a matter of the victor becoming king and the loser a bandit, with history written by the victor.
And her goal had always been to restore the Angel Clan's glory.
Now, unexpectedly seeing what her ancestor had looked like in her youth left her beside herself with excitement.
The Divine Realm of Douluo II.
Tang San couldn't help frowning, either.
After Qian Renxue's identity was confirmed, he was secretly alarmed, unsure what purpose this sky screen served.
There was another problem now: his daughter, Xiao Qi, was actually on the sky screen, too.
That meant his grand plan to control the Child of Destiny would be missing an important chess piece.
The modern world.
Inside Lin Hao's rented apartment.
While Qian Renxue was reeling in shock, Tang Wutong beside her finally caught on.
She finally understood why the name Xue Qinghe had sounded so familiar.
She said, practically stamping her feet:
"No wonder I thought your name sounded so familiar."
"So you're Qian Renxue, the Angel God, that big villain from ten thousand years ago! You even tried to stop my dad from becoming a god."
Hearing this, Qian Renxue was utterly bewildered.
She had spent years undercover in Heaven Dou City, and now even her underwear had been laid bare.
Then this Tang Wutong popped up, saying she had stopped her father from becoming a god.
She spoke irritably.
"Angel God? When did I inherit the Angel God's divine seat?"
"And you say I stopped your dad from becoming a god."
"Just what random nobody is your dad? I certainly don't know him."
Hearing Qian Renxue call her father a random nobody...
Tang Wutong snorted angrily.
"Listen carefully! My dad is Tang San, the Sea God and Asura God of the Douluo God Realm, the savior of the Douluo Continent, the founder of the Tang Sect, and one of Shrek Academy's Shrek Seven Monsters..."
"And you, Angel God Qian Renxue, were defeated by my dad back then."
Boom!
Seeing this part of the sky screen...
Everyone on the Douluo Continent was dumbfounded.
The world of Douluo I.
The Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.
Xue Ye didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"A Pope's daughter with the ability to become a god actually came to my Heaven Dou Empire to serve as crown prince."
"Should I feel honored or saddened?"
Elsewhere, Xue Beng was at a loss for words.
This Qian Renxue clearly had the Angel God's divine seat to inherit, so why did she insist on fighting him for Heaven Dou's throne?
He couldn't understand that train of thought at all.
And just who was this Tang San?
He was so damned impressive, with one person carrying what sounded like several people's titles. There wasn't even room here for that many people.
Then should he try to win Tang San over?
Meanwhile, at Shrek Academy.
Yu Xiaogang trembled with excitement as he watched the sky screen.
"Sea God Tang San!"
"Little San, you became the Sea God and Asura God in the future!"
"I, Yu Xiaogang, finally raised a god, and one with dual godhood at that!"
Tang San was dumbfounded, too.
How did I become the Sea God and Asura God?
Was the sky screen really talking about me?
Xiao Wu, beside him, was filled with admiration.
That's Third Brother for you.
The other members of the Shrek Seven Devils were also deeply envious.
"Little San, when you become a god, you'd better help us along."
"What are you saying? We'll have to address him as Lord Sea God and Asura God!"
Tang San: "..."
Why did he keep feeling as though everyone was teasing him?
The modern world, in Lin Hao's living room.
Watching this blue-haired girl get so deeply into character, even more deeply than the Qian Renxue cosplayer, Lin Hao laughed in exasperation.
She could even introduce God King Tang with such pride.
Could she actually be a fangirl of God King Tang?
No wonder she was cosplaying God King Tang's daughter.
He looked at Tang Wutong. "Tang San is your dad, so what's your name? Don't tell me it's Wang Dong'er."
Tang Wutong said disdainfully, "This young lady is certainly not called Wang Dong'er. Who's Wang Dong'er? Is she even worthy of being compared to me?"
Hearing that, the corners of Lin Hao's mouth twitched.
That tone alone made it obvious who she was cosplaying.
Young miss, this servant pays her respects.
Lin Hao said, "Then I know. Your name is Tang Wutong, right?"
The expression on Tang Wutong's face froze instantly.
Her eyes widened. "How did you know?"
Lin Hao also caught that expression on Tang Wutong's face.
Something's wrong. Something's very wrong!
Even a professional actor couldn't make it look this real, could they?
This Tang Wutong, like that Gu Yuena cosplayer earlier, seemed to know absolutely nothing about cosplay.
Could they have come from somewhere without any exposure to the internet?
The three women's emotions didn't seem fake, either.
A little frightened, he swallowed and looked at Gu Yuena, asking again:
"Then your name is Gu Yuena, right?"
"How did you know?"
Gu Yuena's lips parted slightly, too.
She hadn't told anyone the name she had just chosen. How did he know?
Why did it feel as though this man could guess names so accurately? Could he tell fortunes?
Just then, a ding also sounded in Lin Hao's mind:
[Congratulations to the host on successfully meeting three individuals from the Douluo Continent. Character binding completed: Qian Renxue, Tang Wutong, Gu Yuena.] [Activating the Emotion Value System for the host. By obtaining Emotion Points from these three individuals, the host can purchase items from the system shop.]
After hearing that, Lin Hao was stunned, too.
A system? I'd actually activated a system?
Then didn't that mean these three really were freaking Qian Renxue, Tang Wutong, and Gu Yuena?
Exactly one from each time and space.
Lin Hao couldn't help questioning his life.
So I was the clown all along. Cosplay, my ass. The real people were standing right in front of me.
At that moment, Lin Hao was also deeply puzzled.
How had all three ended up in his home? And all three seemed to have lost all their Soul Power, as though they had lost their strength.
Otherwise, with these three's tempers, they probably would have started fighting long ago.
Especially Tang Wutong, Young Miss Tang.
