Douluo Continent: Tang San has already taken off, and I'm only just arriving.

Chapter 72 The Standoff Between the Two Great God Kings

Chapter 72 The Standoff Between the Two God-Kings

Forcibly controlling his stunned and shocked mind, Chen Yichuan finally spoke again.

"Miss Ye, I think it's better to clarify some things first."

"First of all, I didn't mean any disrespect to you. Secondly, I'm still just a child and have never thought about having a future life partner."

"Then, I don't know how my grandfather told you, I had no idea beforehand."

After saying this, Chen Yichuan looked at Ye Lingling.

Having read the original novel, how could he not know about the girl's background and other matters?

The Nine-Heart Begonia martial soul is indeed extraordinary, but only those involved can truly understand the price it comes at.

As an outsider, it's impossible to truly empathize.

"I know everything you said."

“Your maternal grandfather has already given betrothal gifts to my grandfather and me, and we have accepted them.”

"Grandpa meant that with you protecting me, he could rest easy when he was gone."

"I didn't refuse so that Grandpa could be at ease!"

"I don't really care who my future husband is, but you can rest assured about one thing: since I've chosen you, I will definitely be faithful to you."

Ye Lingling's voice was gentle and her speech was slow, yet she was very honest.

However, there was one more thing he didn't tell Chen Yichuan.

That was because of an accident; her grandfather didn't have much time left to live.

Ye Renxin's action can be considered as entrusting his son to someone else.

He didn't have much resistance to his impending death. Lingling was of marriageable age, and only after his death could the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul be passed down.

The reason for choosing Chen Yichuan was that he met Salas by chance during a rescue.

Salas was deeply moved by Ye Renxin's plight. In addition, this would help the Spirit Hall win over the Nine Heart Begonia Spirit and find a beautiful wife for his grandson, so he agreed.

"I……"

Faced with Ye Lingling's frankness, Chen Yichuan really didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Admittedly, Ye Lingling is a top-tier beauty. As a normal man, he would probably not refuse a beautiful woman who takes the initiative to throw herself into his arms.

But, is he lacking in beautiful women?
No shortage!

The reason he never had such thoughts was because he simply couldn't be sure if he would survive to the end.

Isn't this delaying other people's time?
"I have an enemy, a very powerful enemy, so powerful that even the Spirit Hall might not be able to defeat him."

"If I lose, the people around me will be affected."

"Do you still want to be my wife?"

Chen Yichuan decided to reveal some things.

"It's alright. I have a good feeling about you, and I won't regret my choice."

"It's a big deal to die together!"

When death was mentioned, Ye Lingling showed no emotion.

Her grandfather hoped that the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul could be inherited, but she wanted to completely break the curse on her.

That's why we asked at the beginning, "Can we please not be here anymore?"

Having come this far, and with Ye Lingling already saying so, Chen Yichuan felt that pushing things any further would make him feel like he wasn't even a man anymore.

"Okay, I agree to this engagement."

"I can't guarantee anything else, but at least I can assure you of one thing: as long as I'm alive, no one will want to bully you, and you can do whatever you want."

Chen Yichuan made his promise.

At one moment, a bright light appeared in Ye Lingling's eyes.

It seems that having someone by your side isn't such a bad thing.

Just as Chen Yichuan had finished dealing with Ye Lingling, trouble struck his family again.

Golden Crocodile Douluo led Tian Yue directly to the place where Salas lived.

They directly stated their purpose: to get Tianyue and Chen Yichuan engaged.

He had wanted to do this for a long time, but other things had kept delaying it.

This is also the main reason why he sent Tianyue to Chen Yichuan so early.

Before coming, he asked Tianyue.

He thought the girl would be resistant, but to his surprise, after hearing about it, she urged him to get engaged, even more eager than he was.

When Golden Crocodile Douluo arrived, Ye Renxin was discussing the engagement between Chen Yichuan and Ye Lingling with Salas.

This is awkward.

But who is Golden Crocodile Douluo? He's an old man over 150 years old.

What's the point of saving face?

Is having a grandson-in-law important?
They directly stated their position and interfered.

Not only did Ye Renxin dare not have any objections, but Salas also dared not have any objections.

In the end, this world still depends on strength.

Ultimately, they decided to hold a simple engagement ceremony three days later.

Chen Yichuan, on the other hand, knew nothing about it.

He was still unaware of the kind of chaotic situation he was about to face.

Speaking of Shura, we have to mention another person.

Tang San!

Entering the City of Slaughter more than half a year later than in the original story, Tang San suffered a great deal of hardship.

With his abilities, he could have thrived in a place like this.

Unexpectedly, just a few months ago, I encountered that crazy woman.

Hu Liena!
Although he won, he also suffered serious injuries.

As a result, he was targeted by many people in the Killing City.

After all, the strength he had displayed before was too great; if he didn't die, it would be someone else who would.

Those powerful corrupt ones should have been eliminated sooner.

Kill him while he's sick.

Various tactics of dodging, hiding, and counter-attacking.

That's how they managed to survive.

He had just caught his breath when he felt a sudden, inexplicable palpitation.

It felt as if I had lost something most precious.

As for what it was, he racked his brains but still couldn't figure it out.

Fortunately, after a fierce battle, and because he was sent by the God of Slaughter and had special privileges, Tang San completed his hundred victories in the City of Slaughter three months earlier than expected.

He stepped onto the Road to Hell. The moment he entered the Road to Hell, the Asura God King in the God Realm sensed it instantly.

"My chosen successor has finally arrived here."

The Asura God King was very much looking forward to it.

He was thoroughly fed up with the god realm, that godforsaken place.

But he was unwilling to relinquish his power.

After all, leaving the realm of gods and venturing out into the world, no one can be sure what will happen.

We must have a backup plan.

His successors must possess not only talent but also controllability.

Someday in the future, when they are unable to venture outside the realm of gods, they will be able to rely on this successor to return to the realm of gods.

Therefore, careful planning is essential.

The last time I watched it was when Tang San obtained the immortal herb.

He was very satisfied with Tang San's performance.

"This is……"

"So much time has passed, how come you're only at level 55? You're so useless!"

When the Asura God King saw Tang San through the Land of Inheritance, he was somewhat surprised.

It's not just a matter of being useless in terms of cultivation, but also in terms of mental state.

For a god-king like him, having a lower cultivation level was not a problem at all.

Solving problems related to one's state of mind is much more complicated.

Most importantly, Tang San's luck was so thin as to be negligible.

This shouldn't be happening.

"In the end what happened?"

With a thought, the Asura God King directly examined Tang San's memories.

At first, nothing unexpected happened, until Qian Renxue appeared.

The battle for destiny that he personally arranged was naturally a scheme to prevent Qian Renxue from participating, allowing Tang San to overtake her.

But then Qian Renxue appeared.

"Poseidon!"

The Asura God King immediately thought of the Sea God.

After all, the legacy of the Angel God is now controlled by the Sea God.

I warned that guy beforehand, so why did he do this?

The Asura God King left the temple and headed to the place where the Sea God resided.

"Poseidon, what have you done?"

The Asura God King barged into the Sea God's Palace and questioned him in a deep voice.

Those familiar with him know that the Asura God King was already enraged at this point.

"Boss, what did I do?"

Poseidon looked completely puzzled.

Although he is one of the most powerful among the first-level gods and even has the potential to become a god-king, the problem is that a first-level god is still just a first-level god. When facing a god-king, he still has to bow his head.

"Did you order the successor of the Angel God to participate in the Soul Master Competition?"

Seeing the sea god's astonishment, the Asura God already knew the answer.

This wasn't done by the sea god; something must have happened somewhere unexpected.

"Boss, I have been following your orders the whole time, and I haven't overstepped them at all."

Now that he was certain he hadn't committed any wrongdoing, Poseidon felt more confident.

To put it bluntly, he's not someone who can be easily manipulated.

Without violating the rules, even the Asura God King, as an enforcer, could not do anything to him.

Moreover, they have a pretty good relationship.

"What exactly went wrong?"

The Asura God-King had the idea of personally sending down his divine sense to investigate.

At this moment, the God King of Destruction, the God King of Life, the God King of Evil, and the God King of Kindness all appeared.

"Shura, what mistake did the Sea God make?"

The evil god-king questioned in a deep voice.

Not long ago, he was unable to attend the fall of the angel god because of other matters, and his wife, the kind goddess king, complained about him a lot, which made him very unhappy recently.

Now that he is about to leave the realm of gods, a significant problem has arisen with his successor, making him even more unhappy.

At this moment, the Asura God King, as an enforcer of the law, did something that was inconsistent with his status.

It's perfect for venting.

And by the way, tell the other gods not to start acting up just because they're about to leave.

Ultimately, he and his wife also saw the divine realm as a fallback option.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have left such a powerful artifact for their heir.

"I acted impulsively because of some minor conflicts, and it was my fault."

The Asura God King immediately bowed his head.

What he did would not have been a big deal for any other god-king, but for someone who was an enforcer of the divine realm, it was a significant issue.

In particular, the words of the evil god-king clearly contained a critical intent.

"Small thing!"

"As an enforcer of the divine realm, you actually described this as a trivial matter."

"Shura, if this is your attitude, I seriously doubt whether you are qualified to continue serving as an enforcer of the divine realm."

The Evil God King completely ignored the Asura God King's bowing.

Doesn't the Asura God King have any pride?

He was able to become an enforcer of the divine realm by virtue of his great strength and the merits he made for the divine realm.

What's gotten into this evil guy today?

"Evil God-King, please watch your words!"

"How I act as a law enforcer is not up to you alone."

With a cold snort, the Asura God King prepared to leave.

But he discovered that the evil god-king was blocking his way.
