Douluo Dalu: Immortal Dragon Clan

Tian Mucheng's gaze swept over Niu Tian and Titan, who were kneeling on the ground, their bodies stiff, and finally landed on Wang Dong'er.

Feeling that gaze upon her, Wang Dong'er subconsciously gripped the hem of her clothes, her voice carrying a barely perceptible hint of nervousness: "Hello, Your Majesty."

The confrontation between Tianmucheng and the Sea God Tang San had already convinced her that the being who descended through Jin Tianming's body must also be a deity.

"No need to be nervous." Tian Mucheng's voice was gentle, without a trace of divine pressure. "You are friends with Bai Yu and Hei, so naturally you are my friend as well."

"Then you must go and check on them!" Wang Dong'er said urgently, as if grasping at a straw, stepping forward quickly. "They just exhausted their life force, and their condition is very bad..."

Tian Mucheng shook his head slightly, his tone tinged with helplessness: "No, it's their own choice, and I don't have much time to stay, so I can't interfere."

“But they…” Wang Dong’er wanted to say something more, but then she heard two weak footsteps behind her.

Bai Yu and Hei, supported by Xiao Xiao, slowly walked out.

Bai Yu's face was as pale as paper, but he still forced a smile and said to Wang Dong'er, "Dong'er, this is fate's arrangement, don't overthink it."

Hei nodded slightly to Tian Mucheng, his voice tinged with apology: "I'm sorry to have made you and Jin Tianming clean up this mess for us. This should have been something the two of us could have resolved."

"No need to apologize." Tian Mucheng waved his hand, his tone full of genuine praise. "You've done a very good job."

As the saying goes, plans can't keep up with changes; the fact that we've managed to hold on until now has exceeded my expectations.

He could see clearly that if the dragon core hadn't been so weak that it couldn't withstand the dragon soul power within the two of them, they might have been able to defeat all four of them and completely resolve the crisis.

Tian Mucheng turned his gaze to Wang Dong'er again and said calmly, "Wang Dong'er, you may be the daughter of the Sea God and our nominal 'enemy,' but I know that you have your own thoughts."

Why don't you tell me your decision, and while you're at it... take care of these two matters concerning your relatives?

Upon hearing this, Wang Dong'er's body stiffened abruptly.

Her gaze fell on Niu Tian and Titan, her eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.

Her father's scheming, the truth about her origins, and the choices her uncles had just made were all tangled up in her mind, leaving her completely at a loss.

"Xiaodong..."

Niu Tian and Titan looked up at Wang Dong'er with eyes full of guilt and pain.

They had promised Xiaowu that they would take good care of the child, but in the end, they stood on the opposite side of her.

“Longing is the emotion furthest from understanding.” Tian Mucheng’s voice rang out at the right time, like a clear spring, soothing the anxiety in Wang Dong’er’s heart. “Perhaps you are full of disappointment and resentment right now, but calm down and think it over carefully, and just follow your heart.”

Wang Dong'er's longing for her parents was the light that sustained her through many years.

But when the truth was revealed, that longing turned into the sharpest knife, piercing her heart.

Her hatred for Tang San, and her resentment towards Niu Tian and Titan, almost consumed her.

Tian Mucheng said those words simply to calm her down.

Impulsive decisions solve nothing; only choices made after calming down will prevent future regrets.

Wang Dong'er took a deep breath and closed her eyes.

The wind howled through the ruins of the Haotian Sect, and the surroundings were so quiet that you could hear everyone's heartbeat.

After an unknown amount of time, she slowly opened her eyes, her gaze becoming much clearer.

"Eldest Father, Second Father," she looked at the two men before her and asked softly, "Are your feelings for me real?"

“Of course it’s true!” Niu Tian blurted out, his voice urgent. “Xiao Dong, your second father and I have never lied to you! We only knew that Tang San wanted you to get to know the chosen one of this generation, we had no idea that he would be so ruthless as to want to split your soul apart…”

As he finished speaking, Niu Tian's voice grew softer and softer.

No amount of explanation can cover up the fact that they chose to stand on Tang San's side just now, and that hurt has truly landed on Wang Dong'er's heart.

Niu Tian raised his head and looked at Tian Mucheng, his eyes filled with determination: "Sir, our lives are at your disposal. We only beg you to spare Xiao Dong, the child is innocent." "Quiet." Tian Mucheng raised his hand, and a spatial force instantly sealed Niu Tian's mouth. His tone was somewhat serious, "Wang Dong'er is questioning you now, don't turn the topic to me."

"Respect her, okay?"

Wang Dong'er looked at Niu Tian, ​​whose mouth was gagged, then at Titan, who stood to the side with his head bowed and a face full of guilt. After a moment of silence, she asked, word by word:

"Eldest Father, Second Father, are you willing to join me in killing Tang San?"

Niu Tian: ? ? ?
Titan: ? ? ?
The two of them suddenly looked up, their eyes wide with disbelief.

As expected, Xiaodong said those words.

Silence filled the air. After a long while, Niu Tian and Titan exchanged a glance and saw the same resolute determination in each other's eyes.

Tianmu Cheng removed the seal from Niu Tian's mouth.

Niu Tian took a deep breath, his voice hoarse but firm: "Xiao Dong, we are willing."

"But there is only one way—we will sacrifice ourselves for you. Only in this way can we sever our control over Tang San, completely break free from his control, and truly help you."

"Otherwise, once you are his priest, you will be his pawn for life."

“That’s right.” Titan also raised his head, his eyes filled with hatred. “That Tang San is not even human!”

They are still feeling lingering fear. If Wang Dong'er hadn't known the truth, if Tian Mucheng hadn't appeared, they would probably still be kept in the dark and continue to work for that cold-blooded guy.

How heartbroken would Xiao Wu be if she knew that Tang San was this kind of person?
Tian Mucheng looked at the scene before him and nodded in satisfaction.

This is undoubtedly the optimal solution at present.

He fell silent and returned ownership of his body to Jin Tianming.

What happened next was none of his business.

Jin Tianming regained control of his body, stretched his wrists, turned to look at Hei and Baiyu beside him, and raised an eyebrow: "Do you want to say goodbye to your friends?"

"What's there to say goodbye to?" Bai Yu rolled her eyes, her tone as casual as if she were just going to take a nap. "It's just a short nap, isn't it?"

Even so, he patted Xiao Xiao's shoulder and whispered, "Remember to tell Wang Dong'er later that after absorbing our power, she should leave with this guy."

Then, in alliance with the Sun and Moon Empire, they attacked the three kingdoms of Star Luo, Heavenly Soul, and Battle Spirit.

“But…” Xiao Xiao looked at his pale face, her eyes reddening, and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Bai Yu.

"Relax, relax!" Bai Yu waved his hand, his tone tinged with impatience. "It's like a life-or-death separation, so annoying!"

Hei didn't speak, but just stared at Jin Tianming quietly. After a long while, he finally asked, "Who is your next target?"

"Wen Yu." Jin Tianming spoke concisely and to the point.

Hei frowned, his eyes full of doubt: "Why not Raize? Logically speaking, Raize, who is eager to die, should be the easiest to take action."

Unless... this guy did it on purpose.

Jin Tianming's lips curled into a sly smile, his tone tinged with mockery: "You know perfectly well why I'm asking this."

Hei immediately understood and couldn't help but shake his head.

As expected, every dragon soul holds a grudge; they just take revenge in different ways.

Poor Razer, he's probably going to be the last one to be "taken home".

Razer: Ame!
