Douluo Continent: Little Huo Niang Taken Away by Di Tian

Zi Ji frequently traveled between the Starry Sky and the Spirit Pagoda, bringing back many items unique to humans, especially books.

Di Tian often summons soul beasts to read human texts to them. Humans are good at recording history with pen and ink, but soul beasts rarely do so.

To be precise, the ferocious beasts in the core area have long lifespans and are themselves witnesses to history.

Holding the "History of the Founding of the Star Luo Kingdom," Di Tian spoke in a calm yet powerful voice, recounting how the first Star Luo Emperor conquered all directions and established an immortal empire.

"Truly remarkable," Di Qiu exclaimed, "This human only lived for a hundred years, yet his life was so extraordinary."

"Perhaps it is precisely because life is short that we should shine brightly in the limited time we have." The Demon King's tone carried a philosophical undertone.

"I admit, even in a hundred years, I might not be able to figure out even one thing," Xiong Jun said, scratching his head.

The middle head of the Red King shook and replied, "A hundred years is enough time for us to argue endlessly over a decision."

Di Tian closed the book and his gaze swept over each of the soul beasts present:

"This is humanity—life may be as fleeting as a shooting star, but it is dazzling and brilliant."

Fifty thousand years ago, when I traveled the world, humankind was as small and insignificant as ants;

Forty thousand years ago, the Asura God ascended to heaven, and humans had already built cities;

Thirty thousand years ago, the Angel God descended upon the God Realm, and the Spirit Hall rose to prominence.

Twenty thousand years ago, the Sea God became a god, and the two great empires of Tiandou and Xingluo stood side by side;

Ten thousand years ago, eight gods were born on this continent at the same time, and Tang San even held the position of two gods.

Six thousand years ago, the Sun Moon Continent collided with the Douluo Continent;

Today, human development is accelerating and becoming increasingly powerful.

He paused for a moment, his tone gradually deepening:

"Look at my race, it looks exactly the same as it did 50,000 years ago."

We must change, and we must acknowledge that humanity has aspects we can learn from. That's enough for today, let's call it a day.

After escorting Di Qiu back to her cave, Di Tian did not leave immediately.

Tonight, he decided to change his usual approach and tell his daughter fairy tales.

The pages turned gently; it was "Lin's Fairy Tales," written by the Lin brothers of the Heaven Dou Empire. Tonight's story was titled "The Snow White Princess."

Legend has it that in the ancient Tiandou Empire, there was once a princess with skin as white as snow and lips like red plum blossoms, who was known as the "Snow White Princess".

Her mother died in childbirth, and the heartbroken king vowed to raise his daughter alone.

As time went by, the princess grew into a beautiful and charming woman, and the king finally remarried a new queen.

However, this stunningly beautiful empress was actually a lurking evil spirit master who married into the royal family only to overthrow the entire empire.

After becoming pregnant, she secretly poisoned the king, silently taking his life.

The king has only one child, Princess Snow White. If she is removed, the queen's child will be the sole heir to the throne, regardless of whether it is a boy or a girl.

The ruthless empress was determined to eliminate the princess completely, but a loyal old minister risked his life to send the princess out of the capital.

The Empress Dowager then purged opposing forces in the court while simultaneously dispatching pursuers to search for the princess's whereabouts.

During her escape, Princess Snow White hid in an ancient and tranquil forest, where she met seven reclusive sages.

Upon learning of the princess's plight, the seven decided to take her in and accept her as their disciple.

Because they had already sworn not to get involved in worldly disputes, they could not directly help her, and could only protect her in this way.

Upon learning that the princess was still alive, the empress was furious. She took out her level-nine soul tool—the "Magic Mirror".

"Magic mirror, magic mirror, tell me, where is Princess Snow White now?"

Ripples spread across the surface of the magic mirror: "The noble queen is protected by seven great sages in the Sage's Forest."

She wore seven level-nine defensive soul tools, making her impervious to external force.

Then she sneered and quickly came up with a vicious plan.

She disguised herself as an old woman who got lost while picking apples in the forest. After the kind princess gave her directions, she presented the princess with an apple laced with deadly poison as a thank you gift.

Caught off guard, the princess took a bite and fell unconscious.

A few days later, a prince from the Star Luo Empire traveled to this place and visited the seven sages, thus learning about Princess Snow White's plight.

The prince, feeling pity, went to visit the unconscious princess. At that moment, a strange resonance of their martial spirits occurred between them.

It turns out that the royal families of Tiandou and Xingluo had married in their early years, and according to the laws of martial soul inheritance, their offspring could indeed form a martial soul fusion skill.

Under the influence of the power of the fusion of martial souls, Princess Snow White awoke.

She and the prince became disciples of the Seven Sages, diligently cultivating day and night, their soul power increasing by leaps and bounds each day, ultimately both breaking through to the Title Douluo realm.

The two recruited soldiers and horses, returned to the Heavenly Dou Empire, defeated the Empress and her followers, and reclaimed the kingdom that rightfully belonged to her.

The Star Prince ultimately chose to stay in Tian Dou and marry Princess Snow White.

The princess was crowned empress, and the two ruled the country together. From then on, the country was peaceful and prosperous, and they lived out their lives together.

……

The sunlight and moonlight enveloped the Lake of Life like a silver veil, and the surface of the lake rippled with tiny, shimmering waves.

Di Tian's enormous dragon body was coiled on the lakeside, while Di Qiu nestled beside him.

Around them, Xiong Jun, Wan Yao Wang, Chi Wang, and other large and small soul beasts sat or lay down, quietly forming a circle.

As the son of the Light Dragon King and the Dark Dragon King, the captain of the Dragon God's personal guard, and the Dragon God's disciple and adopted grandson, Di Tian grew up by the Dragon God's side since childhood. The reverence and remembrance surging in his chest are beyond description in any words.

"The moonlight is perfect tonight," Di Tian said. "I want to share with you the great radiance that truly illuminated the origin of our bloodline, the radiance belonging to the Dragon God."

Di Tian began his narration.

His vocabulary was solemn, and his tone was filled with unquestionable piety. The details were extremely detailed, the praise was layered, and the emotions were sincere and surging.

At first, the soul beasts listened intently, but after a while, the atmosphere began to subtly change.

Xiong Jun's enormous head began to slowly, bit by bit, sink downwards, like a roly-poly toy...

The Demon King's eyes gradually became unfocused and glazed over...

The Red King's three heads were in a state of disharmony: the left head's eyelids were drooping, the middle head was barely holding itself up, and the right head was looking around blankly, as if wondering "where did the story leave off?"

Some of the spirit beasts couldn't help but bury their heads in their forelimbs, or unconsciously leaned against the warmth of their companions beside them.

As time passed, Di Qiu began to secretly and subtly change his lying position, or count the number of stars in the sky, trying to resist the increasingly heavy weariness.

However, her eyelids grew heavier and heavier, her little head bobbed up and down, and finally she fell into a deep, peaceful sleep.

Di Tian was completely immersed in his memories and praise of the Dragon God.

When he finally recounted how the Dragon God used his supreme divine power to usher in a prosperous era for the dragon race, he paused briefly, his golden eyes sweeping over the soul beasts with satisfaction and anticipation after sharing.

Then, he fell silent.

Di Tian glanced at his daughter, who was sleeping soundly beside him, drooling, and then at the soul beasts scattered around him, all sleeping peacefully.

He ultimately said nothing, only sighed very softly, then gently lowered his head again and slowly closed his eyelids.
