Battle Through the Heavens: Starting with Cao Ying as an apprentice

In the center of that sealed ruin, a huge golden figure was struggling frantically.

That was the Golden Dragon King, who had been imprisoned here for who knows how many years.

roar--!!!

Upon seeing a stranger, the Golden Dragon King's cracked dragon eyes instantly flashed with a bloodthirsty red light.

Without the slightest hesitation, it raised its head and roared, its giant claws carrying a savage force capable of tearing apart ordinary gods, and slammed fiercely towards the direction where the four people were!

However, Su Baichen simply raised his eyelids calmly.

In his eyes, this once mighty dragon king, which once shook the divine realm, was now nothing more than a shell that possessed the great power left behind by the dragon god, but had long since lost its intelligence.

The instinct to kill replaced reason, rage overshadowed divinity, and it left nothing but destruction, like a runaway killing machine.

Faced with the overwhelming dragon claws, Su Baichen simply extended his right hand casually, pointing his fingers like a sword.

"laugh--!"

A sword aura, visible to the naked eye, shot out and completely ignored the Golden Dragon King's proud dragon scale defense, easily severing the dragon claw!

"Roar!"

The Golden Dragon King was in pain and launched an even more frantic attack, but it was all in vain.

Without moving, Su Baichen casually slashed and killed the Golden Dragon King with a single sword strike.

Then, with his five fingers slightly spread, he gently grasped the void.

Suddenly, a dazzling golden light flew out from the corpse of the Golden Dragon King. Accompanied by a resentful dragon roar, a golden dragon core radiating immense life force was forcibly extracted and floated in mid-air.

"Rise—!"

Su Baichen let out a soft exclamation, and a cluster of Glazed Sky-Burning Flame enveloped the dragon core.

Under the high temperature, the dragon core melted rapidly, and the impurities were burned away.

Immediately afterwards, he rolled up his sleeves, and several medicinal herbs that had been prepared beforehand fell into the flames like shooting stars.

Flames surged, the aroma of medicine mingled with the dragon's might, and a rich medicinal fragrance filled the air!

Chapter 321 Departure, Return!

The strange phenomenon dissipated in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Su Baichen inhaled through his palm, and the Heaven-Burning Flame quietly disappeared.

In his palm lay a perfect pill, the size of a longan, entirely golden, with faint dragon patterns moving across its surface.

The God of Destruction, who had been watching from the sidelines with a "let's watch the show" attitude, was now shocked by what he saw.

He subconsciously turned to look at the obedient Bai Yue'er beside him, and recalling the scene of "slaying the Golden Dragon King with a sword" just now, his throat involuntarily bobbed up and down, and he quietly swallowed.

"Goodness, she's learning her brother-in-law's kendo, huh? Then I should..."

Bai Yue'er clearly noticed the look of shock in the eyes of the God of Destruction, but she didn't care and instead gave him a kind smile.

At this moment, Su Baichen turned around and gently handed the scalding hot pill to Bai Yue'er.

"Moon, this is the Dragon Essence Tempering Pill, forged by fusing the life essence of the Golden Dragon King."

Su Baichen said gently, "Take it and refine the Dragon God's legacy within. Your cultivation foundation will be strengthened like never before, and your future will be limitless."

Wow! Really? Thank you, Master!

Bai Yue'er's eyes shone brightly, like a happy little bird, as she accepted the pill with both hands.

…………

Several days later, at the Temple of Life.

Su Baichen stood with his hands behind his back in the void. With a casual wave of his hand, a spatial portal flowing with pale golden light appeared out of thin air.

He turned his head and looked at Liu Muxi, Su Ling'er, Jin Xue'er, Jin Qiu'er and Ning Bing behind him.

"You all go in first, I have some things to say."

The women nodded slightly and walked towards the teleportation portal one by one.

Just as Liu Muxi was about to step into the door, she suddenly stopped and turned to look at her younger brother—the God of Destruction.

Her eyes were full of teasing and encouragement, and she silently mouthed a gesture as she parted her red lips:

"come on!"

After making this gesture, she covered her mouth and smiled, then turned and stepped into the radiance, disappearing from sight.

After all the women had left, the atmosphere in the once spacious temple instantly became awkward.

Su Baichen's gaze fell on the God of Destruction, and his eyes did not look like those of a "brother-in-law looking at his brother-in-law."

It was more like an extremely complex gaze, even carrying a sense of scrutiny and oppression—the very posture of a father-in-law looking at his son-in-law.

The God of Destruction felt a chill run down his spine from the stare, and a cold sweat instantly seeped through his vest.

Su Baichen's expression was serious as he said in a deep voice, "I won't go to say goodbye to Yue'er in person, so as not to interrupt her process of refining the pills."

"Please tell them for me that I'm leaving now."

"Understood! Don't worry, brother-in-law, I will definitely deliver it!" The God of Destruction nodded hurriedly, adopting an extremely humble posture.

Su Baichen sighed deeply, a sigh filled with helplessness, reluctance, and a hint of resigned melancholy.

I need to keep a closer eye on Ling'er from now on; I can't let her end up like Yue'er, being kidnapped by someone else!

He took a deep breath, stepped forward, stared intently at the God of Destruction, and said, word by word, "I entrust Yue'er to you."

Before he finished speaking, Su Baichen slowly raised his right hand and gently placed it on the shoulder of the God of Destruction.

"Snapped--"

What seemed like a simple pat on the shoulder felt incredibly heavy to the God of Destruction, sending a terrifying pressure of soul energy rushing up his shoulder blades and straight to the top of his head!

"If I find out you've bullied her, even just a tiny bit..." Su Baichen's lips curled into a "kind" smile, his smile gentle, but his eyes were frighteningly cold.

"Hmph... You should know my methods."

"No, no, absolutely not!" The muscles on the God of Destruction's face twitched, yet he maintained a stiff, forced smile.

"I cherish Yue'er like a precious gem, afraid she'll fall if I hold her in my hands, afraid she'll melt if I keep her in my mouth. I'd rather pamper her than bully her!"

Su Baichen looked at the God-King before him, who usually commanded the wind and rain and wielded the laws of destruction, but now bowed repeatedly like a punching bag.

Su Baichen's urge to beat him up diminished considerably.

He truly never expected that his most valued disciple, Bai Yue'er, would end up with the God of Destruction.

Liu Muxi had just secretly told him about this.

It is said that after he left Douluo Star for the first time, the God of Destruction, because his sister Liu Muxi often stayed at Baichen Peak, used the pretext of visiting his sister to descend on him many times.

As a result, they got to know Bai Yue'er, who was still cultivating at the time.

Who would have thought that these two completely unrelated people would actually spark a romance!

When Su Baichen returned for the second time, the God of Destruction was so frightened that he never dared to come to Baichen Peak again.

After all, Su Baichen and his sister both knew how much he valued Bai Yue'er.

Finally, only after Liu Muxi officially became Su Baichen's woman and established their relationship did the God of Destruction muster up the courage to secretly begin "dating" Bai Yue'er through telepathic communication.

"Never mind." Su Baichen shook his head, seemingly trying to shake those unpleasant memories out of his mind.

He took out two items from his storage ring: a jade slip that glowed with a bluish light and a three-foot-long sword.

"Here, this is a congratulatory gift for you."

Su Baichen casually tossed it over: "The jade slip contains two sets of cultivation techniques that I personally deduced, one suitable for Mu Xi, and one suitable for you. As for this sword..."

He pointed to the black sword: "This is a replica of the 'Heavenly Profound Sword' that I made. Although it is not as good as the original, it is definitely at least a God-King level weapon. Take it for self-defense."

Wow! Thank you, brother-in-law!

The God of Destruction took the item, and it was burning hot to the touch. Feeling the terrifying power contained within, he immediately beamed with joy and nodded repeatedly.

Su Baichen paused, his expression becoming extremely solemn, and added again, "Also, now that you've passed on the Godhood of Destruction, your days should be much more leisurely. But Yue'er has only recently become a God-King, and there are still many tedious matters..."

"I understand! I will definitely help Yue'er handle the matter; I know this best!" The God of Destruction immediately patted his chest and gave his assurance.

"I used to handle all sorts of trivial matters frequently, so I'm very experienced!"

"There's one more thing..."

For the next half hour, Su Baichen activated "Dad Mode".

From Bai Yue'er's eating habits to the days she secluded herself each month; from the signs of her anger to her favorite color; Su Baichen explained everything in great detail.

The God of Destruction stood ramrod straight, listening with cold sweat pouring down his face, and could only weep silently in his heart.

After Su Baichen left behind the harsh words, "If Yue'er loses even a single hair, I'll tear down your temple," he finally went inside and left!

Inside the temple, there was a deathly silence.

After watching the door disappear and confirming that Su Baichen had left, the God of Destruction collapsed to the ground like a punctured balloon, letting out a long sigh of relief.

"call--!"

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, glanced in the direction Su Baichen had left with lingering fear, and muttered to himself:

"Finally gone... I was so afraid my brother-in-law would dislike me and rub me into the ground right there!"

After saying that, he looked down at the jade slip and the black sword in his hand, a bitter smile appearing on his face, which was then replaced by a sweet smile.

"Forget it, it's worth getting a beating for Yue'er's sake..."

Chapter 322 Liu Muxi is pregnant!

It's been a month since I returned to the world of Dou Qi.

Xuan Yi and Cai Lin eventually managed to accept Liu Mu Xi, but Cai Lin's gaze towards her these days always carried a complex and inexplicable look.

Perhaps it was because of the faint life force emanating from Liu Muxi, or perhaps it was because of her habitual gesture of unconsciously touching her lower abdomen.

On this day, a spatial fluctuation suddenly came from the sky, and then a petite figure crashed directly into Su Baichen's arms.
