Douluo: My Clone Simulates the Star God.

Chapter 14: The Black Tower's Choice?

"Mu Chen... Saint Craftsman, it's been so long since we last met!"

This time, Leng Yaozhu's expression changed. She hadn't expected Mu Chen to arrive so quickly. It seemed that Yuan Bao'er was no pushover either!

But upon closer reflection, it really doesn't seem like a problem. After all, she's the wife of a master craftsman; if she were so easy to win over, someone would have already set a trap for Mu Chen.

"Haha, it has indeed been a while. But Tower Master Leng is still as beautiful as ever compared to the last time we met. Truly worthy of being called the number one beauty of the Spirit Pagoda!"

The moment the words "Number One Beauty" were uttered, Mu Chen felt a chill run down his spine. He turned around and saw that Yuan Bao'er's gaze had sharpened, which startled him and made him break out in a cold sweat.

However, Yuanbao'er still understood the order of events, so she gave a secret signal, indicating that she would deal with him later!

"No way, people outside are exaggerating." Leng Yaozhu covered her face and laughed, then continued, "Isn't Mu Chen Sheng Jiang's wife just as beautiful? And she has two adorable little ones who might become 'the most beautiful woman' when they grow up!"

The most beautiful woman?

Which place has the most beautiful woman?

Is it from the Spirit Pagoda?

Sensing the hidden meaning in Leng Yaozhu's words, Mu Chen immediately replied, "Then I am honored by Tower Master Leng's praise. Today, I originally planned to come to the Spirit Transmission Tower with my wife and daughter to choose a suitable soul spirit for my daughter, but I was delayed by work and that's why I'm late."

After saying this, Mu Chen looked at Yuan Bao'er, and after she nodded, he continued, "Now that we have chosen a suitable soul spirit, my family will not disturb Tower Master Leng any longer. Farewell!"

"Wait!" Seeing that the group was about to leave, Leng Yaozhu stepped forward to stop them.

"What does Lord Leng mean by this? Please speak frankly."

Neither Mu Chen nor Yuan Bao'er wanted Black Tower to be drawn into the competition among major powers so early, which is why they had kept Black Tower hidden for so long. But no one expected such an unexpected turn of events today. Ultimately, all of this is thanks to Black Tower's extraordinary talent!

Mu Chen should have considered this long ago. How weak could someone with a divine-level martial soul be in terms of mental strength? Sometimes, you really can't overlook even the smallest detail!

Since Leng Yaozhu is determined to stop it, then we have no choice but to put everything out in the open.

"Here's the thing, I was conducting research in Donghai City recently when I received a message that a young genius with extremely high spiritual power had appeared at the Spirit Pagoda here, so I came to take a look." Leng Yaozhu knew that her current actions were annoying, but her position as the deputy tower master of the Spirit Pagoda forced her to do so.

All for this little genius named Black Tower!

At the age of 9, her mental strength reached 378 points. As long as she doesn't perish along the way, she will definitely become a Limit Douluo in the future! Moreover, Hei Ta is the daughter of the Holy Craftsman Mu Chen. In the future, she will at least have a set of three-word battle armor. How can such a genius not be attractive?

Even if it meant swallowing her pride, Leng Yaozhu couldn't just let the other person leave.

"Sigh!" Leng Yaozhu sighed, making a regretful gesture. "Master Mu Chen may not know that although our Spirit Pagoda controls the resources of soul spirits and holds a pivotal position in the soul master world, seemingly at its zenith... in reality, we are already showing signs of having no successors."

"How could that be? With so many members in the Spirit Pagoda, how could it possibly be without successors?"

"Indeed, an ordinary inheritor can have as many as they want. But a top-tier powerhouse can directly disrupt the balance of power! Let me give you a simple example, the Sky-Supporting Douluo... Do you understand?"

Yun Ming, the Sky-Supporting Douluo, is recognized as the strongest person on the entire continent!

That was an existence that countless ordinary heirs of powerful forces could never reach in their entire lives. Even top geniuses still had an insurmountable gap between themselves and Yun Ming.

However, when Yun Ming was mentioned, a subtle glint flashed in Leng Yaozhu's eyes, suggesting that her relationship with Yun Ming was not so simple.

"So upon hearing that there was a genius here, I immediately sealed off the news and rushed over... The Spirit Pagoda needs a powerful figure capable of influencing the future!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present fell silent.

"Lord Leng, do you really think highly of Black Tower?"

"Of course! Do you know how much mental strength I had when I was her age? Only 97 points, less than a third of this child's! If even she can't become a Limit Douluo, what am I?"

"But for the Black Tower, isn't this a bit too early..."

"Sigh! I know you're worried, Master Mu Chen, and little Bao'er. If the Little Black Tower were to appear before those important figures so early, it would definitely attract some ill-intentioned individuals."

Immediately afterward, Leng Yaozhu also became serious, "I know that with the power of the Blacksmith Association, they can definitely protect this child, but that's only in the short term. Because in terms of combat ability, a pure blacksmith is indeed no match for a top-tier soul master, which is a generally accepted fact."

Mu Chen frowned, but he didn't object, because Leng Yaozhu was right; his relationship with Leng Yaozhu was essentially like that.

The identity of the Saint Craftsman makes Mu Chen's social status no less than Leng Yaozhu's. However, once he fights Leng Yaozhu, she can crush him with one hand. This is the power of a level 99 offensive titled Douluo and a four-word battle armor master!

"However, the Blacksmith's Guild might not be able to protect this child. What if we also have a Spirit Pagoda?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Chen understood Leng Yaozhu's thoughts. "You... still intend to cooperate with the Blacksmith Association?"

"It's a deep collaboration!" Leng Yaozhu smiled slightly. "I plan to take this child as my apprentice and treat her as my personal disciple. I also plan to let her inherit the position of the Spirit Pagoda Master in the future. I believe that guy Qian Gu Dongfeng will not object."

"And she's also the daughter of a master craftsman, isn't she? This connection alone is enough to allow the Spirit Pagoda and the Blacksmith's Guild to have even closer cooperation."

"This..." To be honest, after being talked to by Leng Yaozhu for so long, Mu Chen was already very tempted, because he simply couldn't find a reason to refute her.

But at this moment, Yuan Bao'er picked up the conversation, "But ultimately, it depends on Xiao Heita's own choice, doesn't it?"

Upon hearing this, everyone present turned their attention to the brown-haired girl. However, upon seeing her, they noticed that her expression remained unchanged, showing no signs of panic, a stark contrast to Mu Xi standing beside her.

"Such composure under pressure is truly admirable!" Leng Yaozhu couldn't help but exclaim. "I'm even thinking of adopting her as my goddaughter!"

Hearing this, Yuanbao rolled her eyes, but still came up to Black Tower and said seriously, "Little Black Tower, my dad and I both believe that the future is something we have to choose for ourselves."

"We didn't originally plan for you to be exposed to these things so early, but there's no escaping them in the end, so we'll just have to accept it if we run into them head-on."

"The Spirit Pagoda is renowned throughout the continent, and Aunt Leng is a four-word Battle Armor Master, one of the continent's top experts. If you could receive her personal instruction, it would definitely be of great help to your future."

"Little Black Tower, your choice now will definitely have a profound impact on your future, but don't be nervous. No matter what you choose, Dad, Mom, and your sister will support you!"

"Don't panic, tell us your choice!"

Under everyone's gaze, Heita pursed her lips. "I don't want to put Mom and Dad in a difficult position. I want to help you too!"

"So, my choice is..."

This chapter took a lot of effort to write; it was exhausting for a newbie like me!

Moreover, the world of the strong is so complicated; it's all about strategy and maneuvering.
