Douluo: Martial Soul Asura Sword, Supreme Killing God

At this moment, the voice of the God of Destruction rang out: "Eighth Trial of Destruction, you have passed the recognition of the Scepter of Destruction. Reward: 20% Destruction Affinity, and the right to use the Scepter of Destruction."

After receiving the reward, Su Mo put away the Scepter of Destruction.

He then checked the contents of the ninth trial. The ninth trial required attaching nine soul rings to the second martial soul, collecting a complete set of soul bones, and receiving the final inheritance, with no specific time limit.

"It's time to leave."

Su Mo muttered to himself, taking one last look at the desolate mountaintop.

After he changed his clothes, a thought struck him, and the mark of the Scepter of Destruction on his forehead suddenly lit up.

The next moment, the space in front of Su Mo suddenly split open, and a purplish-black light gate quietly appeared.

Su Mo's figure flashed and disappeared into the purplish-black light gate.

The portal closed immediately, disappearing into the Domain of Destruction along with Su Mo's figure.

……

As the light and shadow shifted, the feeling of weightlessness dissipated.

What came into Su Mo's view was the cultivation room he had left earlier.

The familiar scent wafted over me; everything was exactly the same as when he left.

Returning to a familiar place, he finally felt completely relaxed, both physically and mentally.

"Finally back." Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief and stretched his shoulders.

Su Mo stepped out of the cultivation room.

In the hall, Ye Qingshuang and Poseidon were huddled around a stroller, both with gentle smiles on their faces, holding small toys and teasing the baby inside.

Poseidon bent down and shook a small bell, the clear sound of which made the baby giggle.

Ye Qingshuang was holding a doll and speaking softly.

Upon seeing this, Su Mo was stunned.

Just then, Poseidon seemed to sense something and turned around abruptly.

Upon seeing Su Mo, her eyes immediately filled with joy, and she stood up and exclaimed, "Su Mo, you're finally back!"

She looked Su Mo up and down, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he was safe and sound.

At the same time, Ye Qingshuang quickly turned her head to look over and exclaimed happily, "Su Mo!"

Su Mo smiled and nodded, then moved to stand in front of the two women.

When Su Mo's gaze fell on the baby, he was momentarily lost in thought.

Inside the stroller lay a beautifully sculpted baby girl, dressed in a white dress. Her tiny feet occasionally kicked, causing the small ornaments hanging in the stroller to sway gently.

With just one glance, Su Mo clearly sensed that faint bloodline connection.

Su Lingling, inside the stroller, seemed to sense the warmth emanating from Su Mo, her bright eyes fixed intently on him.

Suddenly, Su Lingling grinned and let out a clear, bell-like laugh. Her two little hands flailing wildly in the air, as if trying to grab something.

Su Mo paused slightly, then turned to look at Ye Qingshuang, his voice filled with barely concealed nervousness and anticipation: "Shuang'er, is this child ours?"

Ye Qingshuang nodded gently, a tender smile on her lips, and said softly, "Yes, she is your daughter, named Su Lingling."

Chapter 198 Qian Renxue's Current Strength

“My daughter…” Su Mo murmured, repeating it over and over.

He stared blankly at the pink little life in the stroller, a surge of unprecedented emotions welling up inside him.

There was surprise, joy, and also bewilderment.

Even though he had lived two lives, he had never been a father before; this was his first time.

Moreover, he never expected that Ye Qingshuang would become pregnant in just two days.

He had originally planned to take advantage of this time to work hard with Ye Qingshuang and have a child before fully inheriting the divine position.

“Eeya, eeya…”

Su Mo snapped out of his daze upon hearing Su Lingling's voice.

He bent down and carefully picked Su Lingling up from the stroller.

His movements were clumsy and cautious, as if he were afraid that using even a little more force would hurt her.

He even held his breath until he had his daughter firmly in his arms before slowly exhaling.

He looked at his daughter, who was smiling brightly in his arms, and the corners of his lips involuntarily turned up.

"Lingling..." Su Mo's voice softened unconsciously, "I'm your father..."

Xiao Lingling's response was another burst of giggling laughter.

Ye Qingshuang and Poseidon did not disturb them, but simply watched the scene quietly.

After playing with her for a while, Su Mo put Su Lingling back in the stroller, turned around and gently hugged Ye Qingshuang, resting his chin on the top of her head, and whispered, "Qingshuang, thank you for your hard work. I'm so sorry that I wasn't there when you needed me the most."

Ye Qingshuang smiled and nestled in Su Mo's arms: "Don't say that. I'm not weak, and I'm not that delicate. I was able to move around freely the day I gave birth to Lingling. Besides, my mother and several sisters take good care of me."

Su Mo didn't say anything more. After hugging Ye Qingshuang for a while, he gently let go and pulled Poseidon to sit down on the sofa.

While teasing Su Lingling, he asked, "By the way, did anything major happen this year?"

“No,” Poseidon said with a smile and a shake of her head. “However, if we’re talking about something important, there is one.”

Two months ago, Xue'er awakened her martial soul. When she first awakened it, her martial soul mutated, and her fire attribute was greatly enhanced.

Afterwards, she consumed the Sacred Heart Grass of Light, and her martial soul evolved into eight wings; she is now called the Eight-Winged Seraph.

"Oh?" Su Mo raised an eyebrow and smiled with interest. "Xue'er's talent is really quite good. In that case, inheriting the Angel God should not be a problem."

Although Su Mo knew that the original Qian Renxue could inherit the Angel God, many things had changed, and he was not sure whether the current Qian Renxue could inherit the Angel God.

However, an eight-winged angel is definitely stronger than a six-winged one, and inheriting the title of angel god should not be a problem for them.

"Yes, the Grand Master and the others were so happy back then," Ye Qingshuang said with a smile.

"By the way, are you going to see her now? That little girl has been looking forward to your return, especially these past few days. She comes here every day after her cultivation to see if you're back."

"Where is that girl now?" Su Mo asked.

"She should be cultivating at home. Since awakening her martial soul, the Grand Elder has been personally teaching her," Ye Qingshuang said softly.

Su Mo stood up: "Then I'll go see her, and I'll also go see Dong'er. You all take good care of Lingling at home."

"Okay, go ahead," Ye Qingshuang said with a smile.

Su Mo nodded, got up and left the Holy Son's Palace.

Before long, he arrived at Qian Xunji's residence.

At this moment, in the courtyard, Qian Daoliu stood with his hands behind his back, looking at a small figure in the distance, which was Qian Renxue.

She was holding a small wooden sword, wielding it with great skill and concentration, each strike imbued with a seriousness.

At this moment, Qian Daoliu seemed to sense something and looked towards the door, only to see Su Mo walking towards him.

His smile deepened: "Xiao Mo, you're back?"

Su Mo stopped a short distance in front of Qian Daoliu and greeted him with a smile, "Grandpa Qian."

"It's been a year, and your aura is even more refined than before. It seems you've made considerable progress." Qian Daoliu looked him up and down, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes. "By the way, have you completed your divine test?"

Su Mo nodded: "Everything went smoothly."

"That's good."

Just then, a clear, surprised cry came from afar.

Qian Renxue was focused on practicing her sword when she suddenly turned around and saw Su Mo.

The wooden sword in her hand almost slipped from her grasp and fell to the ground, then an incredulous look of surprise flashed across her face.

"Brother Su Mo!"

She quickly stopped what she was doing, took off running towards Su Mo.

Su Mo crouched down and caught Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue threw herself into Su Mo's arms, hugging his neck tightly, burying her face in the crook of his shoulder, her voice filled with a hint of grievance and joy: "Brother Su Mo, you're finally back. Xue'er missed you so much."

"Brother misses you too." Su Mo chuckled softly.

A moment later, Qian Renxue released Su Mo and said with a smile, "Brother Su Mo, let me show you my current strength."

As she spoke, golden light surged behind her, and the Eight-Winged Seraph Martial Soul condensed, radiating a sacred and fiery aura.

She was surrounded by three soul rings, one yellow and two purple, and her soul power fluctuations had reached level thirty-one.

"Xue'er is amazing. She's only been awakening her martial soul for two months and she's already a Soul Master. Her second soul ring is even a thousand-year-old one." Su Mo praised with a smile, "You've already surpassed me back then. I'm so proud of you."

Su Mo wasn't too surprised by Qian Renxue's current strength. Qian Renxue had been taking whale glue since childhood, and her physical qualities far exceeded those of her peers, so absorbing spirit rings beyond her level was naturally no problem for her.

Moreover, she had taken the immortal herb early on, which greatly enhanced her soul power. In addition, she absorbed the extra energy from the soul ring, which was higher than her level. It was normal for her to break through to the Soul Master level in two months.

Qian Renxue was overjoyed to receive Su Mo's praise, her face beaming with happiness.

"Alright, go back to your sword practice now. After you finish training, your brother will play with you." Su Mo smiled and patted her head.

Qian Renxue nodded emphatically, then tugged at Su Mo's sleeve, tilted her head up, and said earnestly, "Then will you stay here with me?"

"Okay," Su Mo replied softly, since he still had things to discuss with Qian Daoliu.

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue happily took her small wooden sword and ran to a distance to continue her training.

This time, her swordplay was even more powerful than before, as if she was eager to show off in front of Su Mo.

Su Mo watched her figure with a smile on his lips, then turned serious and said to Qian Daoliu, "Grandpa Qian, there is something I would like to tell you."

Seeing his solemn expression, Qian Daoliu also abandoned his casual demeanor and asked with slight surprise, "What is it?"

"I have already condensed my second soul core," Su Mo said softly.

"What! It can condense a second soul core?" Qian Daoliu was slightly surprised.

Su Mo nodded, and then explained in detail to Qian Daoliu the two completely different paths of Yin-Yang complementarity and isotopic resonance.
