Douluo Continent: The Phoenix God Returns

Chapter 106 Poseidon Island

After everyone went to the Time Tower for cultivation and Ye Xingyun left, Ye Li sat alone in the empty Dragon Phoenix Palace, a thoughtful look in his eyes, pondering their chances of winning the final battle.

"Father... Father..."

Several of Yue'er's voices came from outside the main hall, and then four small figures walked in from outside.

"Qiu'er, Yunxi, Chenxuan, and Qingyu are here." Ye Li put away her depressed mood and looked at her children with a slight smile.

"Daddy!" The four children ran quickly to Ye Li's side and started chattering around him.

Qiu'er blinked her big eyes, looked up, and asked, "Daddy, when are Grandma and the others coming back?"

Yunxi said in her childish voice, "Daddy, I miss Grandma and Mommy too."

Chen Xuan tugged at Ye Li's sleeve, looking at him expectantly, while Qing Yu stood obediently to the side, quietly watching everyone.

Ye Li patted the children's heads and said gently, "Mom and Grandma have gone into seclusion to cultivate. They will come back when the time comes."

The children nodded, seemingly understanding, and Chenxuan asked curiously, "Daddy, will they become very powerful if they go to cultivate?"

Ye Li smiled and replied, "Yes, they will become even more powerful after they go into seclusion to cultivate."

Upon hearing this, the four children's eyes sparkled with anticipation. At the same time, Ye Qiu'er and Ye Yunxi secretly made up their minds. Qiu'er was the oldest among them, and according to human age calculations, Ye Qiu'er was already eleven years old. Yunxi, Chenxuan, and Qingyu were not far apart in age, while the youngest was Ye Qingxue, who had just been born not long ago.

Ye Qiu'er and Ye Yunxi's talents far surpass those of children of the same age. Moreover, Ye Qiu'er possesses a divine core within her body, and with Ye Li occasionally transferring cultivation to her to solidify her foundation, Ye Qiu'er might truly achieve godhood through the power of destiny.

Looking at their adorable appearance, Ye Li felt a surge of affection.

At this moment, Ye Qiu'er suddenly spoke up, "Father, when my sister and I become powerful through cultivation, we can fight like Mother and Grandma and protect everyone, right?"

Ye Li was slightly taken aback, then smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, my Qiu'er and Yunxi are the best."

Ye Yunxi also said firmly, "Father, we will definitely work hard to cultivate."

Chen Xuan and Qing Yu were not to be outdone, both expressing their determination to become stronger.

Ye Li looked at the children with relief, a warm feeling welling up in his heart. He knew that no matter how difficult the road ahead might be, he had to do his best for these children.

"Alright, I'll go and bring your little sister over later, and then Daddy will take you to visit your second uncle." Ye Li thought that he would take the children to broaden their horizons and also check on Li Ye and the others' progress.

Upon hearing this, the children immediately cheered.

Ye Li got up and walked towards the Angel Temple, with the little ones following behind her.

Ye Li arrived at the Angel Temple and gently picked up Ye Qingxue, who was still in swaddling clothes. The little one seemed to sense the familiar presence and smiled sweetly in Ye Li's arms.

"Are you going out?" Qian Daoliu asked as he approached Ye Li.

"Let's go to Poseidon Island and broaden the horizons of the kids. How about we go see Poseidon, the girl you have a crush on, and your rival Tang Chen?" Ye Li said to Qian Daoliu.

"Hmm? Tang Chen is back?" Qian Daoliu said.

"Tang Chen was the King of Slaughter back then," Ye Li explained in detail.

"No wonder Tang Chen disappeared back then. It turns out he was parasitized by the Nine-Headed Bat King. If you hadn't saved him, Tang Chen's fate would probably be unknown," Qian Daoliu said with a slight frown.

"Yes, things are unpredictable. Well then, Master Qian, let's set off now," Ye Li said with a smile.

Qian Daoliu nodded. He also wanted to see how his two old friends were doing. Then the group headed towards Seagod Island.

Upon arriving at the seaside, Ye Li did not rent a boat. Instead, he used his ability to control water to create a platform, allowing the group to float on the water. Ye Li, holding Ye Qingxue, stood on the platform with the children and Qian Daoliu. With a thought, the platform sped towards Seagod Island like an arrow.

The children excitedly looked at the surrounding scenery, felt the sea breeze, and chattered incessantly. Chenxuan pointed at the leaping dolphins in the distance and cheered, while Qingyu quietly watched the sea, her eyes filled with curiosity.

Soon, Poseidon Island came into view. Ye Li controlled the platform to slowly approach the shore, and the guards on the island immediately surrounded them warily.

"Who goes there?" With a low shout, seven or eight figures suddenly sprang out from the woods, blocking Ye Li and the others' path.

"An old friend has come here, won't you two come out to greet him?" Qian Daoliu's voice echoed through the Sea God Temple.

Shortly after Qian Daoliu's voice fell, two figures flew out of the Sea God Temple at high speed; they were Poseidon and Tang Chen.

When Poseidon saw Qian Daoliu, he was slightly taken aback. Then his gaze fell on Ye Li and the children, and a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes.

Tang Chen laughed heartily, "Haha, Qian Daoliu, I didn't expect you to come."

Qian Daoliu looked at Tang Chen and nodded slightly, saying, "Tang Chen, it's been a long time."

Ye Li smiled and clasped his hands in greeting, saying, "Seniors, I apologize for my unannounced visit."

Poseidon nodded slightly and said, "It's alright, guests are always welcome."

Tang Chen then looked at the children and asked with a smile, "Who are these little guys?"

Ye Li patted the children's heads and introduced them one by one: "These are my children: Qiu'er, Yunxi, Chenxuan, Qingyu, and Qingxue."

The children looked at Poseidon and Tang Chen somewhat timidly, but still obediently bowed.

Looking at the adorable children, Poseidon smiled gently and said, "What lovely children."

Tang Chen said with a smile, "Ye Li, you're really lucky."

Ye Li smiled and said, "Senior, you flatter me. I'm just lucky."

Poseidon nodded and said, "There's nothing special about this Poseidon Island, but if the children like, they can explore it as much as they like."

Qian Daoliu looked at Poseidon, hesitant to speak. Ye Li saw all this and secretly found it amusing.

"Senior Poseidon, how are my brother and sister-in-law's assessments going?" Ye Li asked.

"Li Ye, Tang San, and Shui Bing'er have all reached the eighth trial. The eighth trial is to reach the title of Douluo and obtain a fully equipped spirit ring and spirit bone," Poseidon said, looking at Ye Li.

Ye Li nodded, having gained a general understanding of their progress.

"It seems they are all very hardworking and talented," Ye Li said with a smile.

By this time, the children could no longer contain their curiosity and began running around, exploring the wonders of Poseidon Island. Ye Qiu'er, along with Ye Yunxi, Chen Xuan, and Qing Yu, excitedly observed the seashells and peculiar plants on the beach.

Poseidon looked at the children's joyful figures with loving eyes, and then strolled and talked with Tang Chen, Qian Daoliu and Ye Li on the beach.
