Douluo 2: This Dragon God has too much martial virtue

Chapter 566: Society’s Beating Will Eventually Come

"Don't say anything!" In the nick of time, Mu Xing regained control. She leaned forward to cover Di Tian's mouth, but because she used too much force, she pushed Di Tian, ​​who was kneeling in front of her, into the snow, almost causing his newly healed outer wound to break open again.

"Whatever you said to her doesn't really matter. I will trust you wholeheartedly." More than being curious about what Di Tian said to Wang Dong, she was worried that it might be something that would kill the Dragon Society. After all, it involved her, and some words, once spoken, cannot be taken back. So she could only try to calm him down first.

Whose ruler and his ministers could get along like this? Electrox secretly lamented that he was born at the wrong time. If only the princess he had met back then had shared the same ideals, resonated with him, and trusted him as they did...

“Just because you haven’t seen it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. But Lord Electrox, did you really serve that princess who betrayed you as your lord? When love overrides power… just look at the fate of the dragons now.” The Golden Dragon King didn’t shy away from tearing open this old wound.

Those fragments of memory that Electrolux had deliberately forgotten began to surge back, and the Golden Dragon King's sneer pulled the undead back to reality. "So back then, your political sense was ridiculously dull. But now you're much better than that evil brat from the Tang family; at least you still have the concept of a ruler and his subjects."

"Let's go back." Mu Xing said, pulling Di Tian up with him as he stood up.

"Aren't you really curious about what I said? I can do anything to you..."

"Hmm?" Mu Xing stared at his wrist, which was wrapped by the dragon's tail. Huo Yuhao, who was beside him, had already used a simulated soul skill to hide his figure.

"Ahem, no, I mean, I can do anything for you!" Di Tian immediately changed his mind.

"I guess it's something like 'I'd give myself to him for love,' right?" She overestimated Wang Dong. If Electrolux's political awareness was almost zero back then, then Wang Dong's political awareness was negative.

"Pretty much. Your Highness has been incredibly kind to me. I can only repay you with my body and serve you in bed every night." If Mu Xing hadn't arrived so quickly, he could have provoked Wang Dong further and asked her why she didn't go herself, was it because she didn't want to?
That's it? The Golden Dragon King was greatly disappointed.

I initially thought it was some kind of treasonous rant, but even Electrox is immune to this kind of talk now. The mage said he'd get used to it after a few times; after all, you dragons just spout nonsense.

Although these words were indeed a bit unexpected for Huo Yuhao, who was trying his best to keep a low profile, for Wang Dong, it was no less than a car wheel running over her face. No wonder she was so angry that she attacked him without thinking.

"But what does that have to do with her?" Mu Xing scratched his head. "She's going to kill you over this?" The cow-and-cow cat was very puzzled.

See? Different races really can't understand each other's differences. But Electrox has personally verified one thing: it's okay to not understand, but if you don't respect these differences and try to correct them, sooner or later, blood will be spilled. And Wang Dong is just clueless; she always takes the initiative, which is a bad move, not to mention she encountered a dragon of Oscar-worthy caliber.

"That sword was made from your dragon scales..." Di Tian paused, seemingly considering how to phrase it in a way that would be more advantageous to him. In the end, he chose to repeat what Wang Dong had said.

"Is there something wrong with her?" Mu Xing suddenly felt exhausted. This was clearly a typical symptom of insufficient socialization.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. He was only a few years old when his own father tore his soul apart and threw him into the lower realm. He was then raised by a useless monkey and a snake. Who would give Wang Dong, this simpleton, socialization training?
The consequence of not receiving proper socialization training is being beaten down by society. However, we shouldn't be too harsh on her. Just like many people who are actually not intellectually normal, but can take care of themselves, they are treated as normal people.

No wonder. Wang Dong is still in her adolescence. While others are still striving for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition in their teens, perhaps exchanging glances with the opposite sex, she's already entered the adult world. There are too many intense temptations here, bizarre and dazzling, dreams turned upside down. This is completely misplaced, a case of forcing growth. To make matters worse, she's encountered a dragon like Mu Xing. She's still a child! How can she resist? Is it something you can just casually touch? Once you're involved, it's all over; your life will be set in stone.

But the problem was that her fellow fans refused to accept it, which angered both her fellow fans and the real Cow Cat.

Di Tian schemed and plotted, striving for survival and love, all for what? Wasn't it all for a place in the Emperor's court in the future? Wang Dong, the only poison master, wanted him to get lost right away. How is that any different from Duan Long's future?
But if he could be kicked out by this brat who has lived for less than twenty years, wouldn't his hundreds of thousands of years have been wasted?

This evil brat from the Tang family cannot be allowed to live! Di Tian's hatred for Wang Dong has surpassed that for Tang San. Just how much does he hate him? If Wang Dong were to actually go and fight the Silver Dragon King to the death, resulting in both sides being severely injured, when Di Tian went to finish him off, he would first choose to stab Wang Dong nine times and leave eighteen holes in his body!
If I had to say something, it would be that you didn't have any difficulties with what happened back then, and we are sworn enemies.

At the same time, the majestic castle where the Divine Realm Committee was located was shrouded in a layer of purplish-black aura, and the surging clouds around it were also stained with a deep purplish-black color, constantly spreading the intention of destruction outward.

"Is this the result you wanted to see?" The goddess of life's face lost its usual gentleness, and her indifferent expression revealed her current state of mind.

The God of Destruction remained silent, not even daring to whisper. How could he dare to say to the Goddess of Life, "Wasn't your approval the decision to leave Wang Dong in the lower realm?"

"This child is absolutely spoiled! How could she fight a dragon?!" Blazing Flame exclaimed, unable to bear it.

"Looks like she hasn't improved at all, she really is an ill-mannered brat!" Ji Dong made no attempt to hide his malice. "She's just like Zhou Weiqing. No matter how good you are to her, even if the scales in her heart don't tip towards Tang San, they'll only tip towards herself." It seems that Xiao Wu's insult about him and Lie Yan being unable to have children still has a strong aftereffect.

"Destruction? You should have made her perish together with Tang San! It would be best if this whole family were wiped out! You actually thought about adopting her and making her a god? Aren't you disgusted? Aren't your kids disgusted?" Ji Dong continued, "What did Tang San say when he was still sitting here? Anyone his daughter sets her sights on must undergo his rigorous tests! Oh my god, did your child get a crush on Tang Xiaoqi from the very beginning? You'd better remember to shut Tang San up, don't let him think about this, otherwise he can completely use it as an excuse to justify his actions..."

The Goddess of Life remained silent, gazing only at the equally silent God of Destruction. Seeing his composed expression, she instantly understood the unspoken connection they shared; perhaps he had other plans. Without revealing her thoughts, she initiated a new topic.

"We didn't come away empty-handed. This time, in our pursuit of Tang San in the lower realm, we not only obtained the energy of the entire Abyss Plane, but also the coordinates of the even more powerful Crimson Plane. According to that Abyss Saint King, his mother has not yet broken through to the God-King level, nor does she have a godhood. Suppressing her is not difficult; a Level One God would suffice. But the key is to prevent her from escaping. Perhaps sending a God-King would be more prudent. What do you all think?"

Ji Dong snorted coldly: "You don't mean you want me to go, do you? Tang San just fell from power, and now it's your turn to order me around?"

“I generally don’t delegate important matters to others,” the God of Destruction finally spoke. “You can stay here and do nothing.” Ji Dong was speechless for a moment, feeling that there was a barb in his words.

The God of Destruction stood up and said, "Let's call it a day."

"Before this expedition, I will first perform divination. I would appreciate it if you two would keep an eye on the movements of the lower realms." After saying this, the Goddess of Life drifted away, following the path of the God of Destruction.

Ji Dong shrugged. They'd already put it that way, what could he say? They hadn't even asked him to do any work, just to check the surveillance footage. He couldn't possibly not even be able to do this simple thing properly.

Blazing Flame comforted him, "Perhaps they all have their own plans. Look at the God of Destruction, every time he takes action, he does it swiftly and decisively."

“We are no longer the two great god-kings we once were.” Ji Dong stared at his empty palms. “We don’t even have a super artifact, so where do we get our say?”

Although Xiao Wu's words were harsh, they were indeed not complete God-Kings. The first God-King of Good and Evil did not even pass on the super artifact to them. It was obvious what those two bastards were up to. They just wanted to return to the God Realm to take power after they got tired of playing in the lower realm.
What will become of them then? Will they remain in the divine realm as priests and servants? That would be too humiliating! They were used as pawns by those two scoundrels, suffering endless torment in the mortal world, only to be dismissed with a mere joke afterward. Most tragically, they will be powerless to exact any real revenge on those two bastards. After all, in the eyes of the first God-King of Good and Evil, they were nothing more than pawns to be used for amusement.

Ji Dong's gaze pierced through the clouds, surveying the myriad planes below. Compared to clowns like Tang San, he hated even more the First God-King of Good and Evil who treated his and Lie Yan's fates as mere playthings. Although his seniority in the God Realm was still relatively short, he knew very well that the God of Destruction was on par with those two bastards and might not be able to secure the rights they deserved. Only the Dragon God-King could suppress those two, so it seemed he would have no choice but to cooperate with the Dragon Clan again.

However, ever since the God of Destruction took control of the central key to the divine realm, the little dragon of the Destruction family has been able to run rampant in the lower realm. Adding flowers to brocade is ultimately not as good as providing charcoal in the snow, so what does she need most now?

The Forest of Life sits beneath a pale green canopy at the edge of the divine realm, its emerald canopies spreading like winding green waves across the barrier of the divine realm. Jade-like trunks support translucent, dark green leaves, each leaf emanating a pale green mist of life. When a gentle breeze blows, the entire forest ripples with a tranquil peace.

In the heart of the forest, in this pristine land, the roots of the ancient tree of life resemble a dragon carved from jade, its canopy casting dappled sunlight.

The figure of the God of Destruction stood out conspicuously in the emerald sea of ​​light. He gazed at his companion who was performing a life prayer ritual, as countless firefly-like points of life wove a shimmering veil for the Goddess of Life.

As the ancient incantation was chanted, the Tree of Life suddenly burst forth with golden light, like the rising sun, from its core. The golden light flowed down the branches, instantly dyeing the entire sacred tree a dazzling gold.

The god of destruction felt an involuntary surge of joy, for in the prophecy, this gilded spectacle signified that the scales of fate had tipped in their favor.

"It seems the victory is assured." The God of Destruction gazed beyond the barrier of the divine realm, where the bizarre and fantastical nebulae now appeared to him as territories about to submit. The golden markings on the Tree of Life had not yet faded; they were a divine revelation bestowed by fate, bringing him greater peace of mind than any divine oracle.

The goddess of life smiled, clearly pleased by the auspicious divination: "Now you should tell me what you said to that boy Wang Dong."

"I only told her about the attributes of the Dragon God's companion dragon—the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon." The God of Destruction intended to downplay the main point.

As a result, he received a "wife's dissatisfaction" card.

"Is that all? What have you said to others in private that you couldn't say to my face?" The goddess of life narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing her guilty husband.

"Di Tian, ​​you're really something!" The God of Destruction closed his eyes and steeled his heart. In order to dispel his wife's dissatisfaction, he had no choice but to tell her the truth.

"So it was you!" A look of realization flashed in the Goddess of Life's eyes as she finally understood the source of Wang Dong's unusual behavior and almost domineering actions. "Is this how you guide that child? You know how innocent that child is..."

“She’s stupid. The filter of the cub made us overlook the fact that she and her mother are actually the same species.” The God of Destruction vented his old grievances. “I only decided to elevate her to a god because I realized that she had an unusual affection for the stars.”

"You know perfectly well that dragons cannot become gods, aren't you just provoking our child? She'll only resent Wang Dong, how could she..." The Goddess of Life suddenly paused, "You wouldn't be thinking of..."

"That's why I want to completely eliminate that possibility! After what happened, how could I possibly raise Tang San's child without any resentment and let them be together?" The God of Destruction's lips curled into a sarcastic smile. "Although bad bamboo can produce good shoots, as you can see, how good can it be? I've thought about it. We're already lucky to have a child like Xing. I don't need any other children, unless they're our own."

“I understand. Even if you brought that child to the realm of gods back then, it was as a subordinate of your faction, right?” The Goddess of Life nodded slowly. “If this is your decision, I will naturally support you without reservation.”

"Then let's use their blood to sacrifice to the flag before we leave." The God of Destruction couldn't hold back any longer.

The goddess of life expressed her agreement with silence, but just as the god of destruction was about to set off, she suddenly opened her eyes wide in surprise.

"What's wrong?" the God of Destruction asked.

“The timing is wrong, she’s not due yet.” The Goddess of Life grabbed the God of Destruction’s hand, her tone even more urgent than his. “I’ll go with you.”

　Sorry everyone, I've had a cold recently, so the update schedule will be irregular.
