Master Changsheng

Chapter 360, Section 357: Godfather!

"familiar?"

"That's right!"

"Because I'm your stepfather!"

"Oh, Donglin, your fate is so bitter!"

An Kai made it up without even thinking.

Upon hearing An Kai's words, Dong Lin's mouth gaped open, and his expression turned ashen, as if he had swallowed poison.

Looking at Ankai, I really didn't know what to say.

"My dear son, why don't you say anything when you see your beloved stepfather?"

"Do you know how much effort your father put into finding you?!"

"Oh, the way you look hurts me deeply!"

After saying that, An Kai didn't forget to put on a sad expression.

It seemed as if he was genuinely saddened that his eldest son (Donglin) did not recognize him.

"Is this my dad?"

"Or the later one?"

Donglin stood there, stunned, in front of the [Summoning Gate].

His lips twitched incessantly.

He felt like something was off.

However, because he was summoned by the [Summoning Gate], Donglin believed Ankai's words completely.

It was precisely because he believed that Donglin sensed something was wrong.

Recalling his meeting with his "stepfather," he showed absolutely no familial affection or consideration.

He slapped himself to death.

When he was killed, there was no sadness on his face.

"My dear son, what are you thinking about?"

"My dear Donglin, don't you even recognize your own father?"

"Thinking back to how I raised you to adulthood, and now you don't even recognize me, your father, fills me with sorrow!"

"When your mother was torn to pieces by three ferocious beasts, and only her mouth remained intact, she still remembered to tell me to take good care of our eldest son."

"I told your mother, who only had one mouth left, right then and there: As long as I have food to eat, you, Donglin, will definitely have a dish to wash!"

"Everyone says that raising children is for old age security, but alas, I never imagined that before you, Donglin, could take care of your father in his old age, you would pass away so tragically."

When An Kai spoke of this, it was as if he was recalling a sad past, and two tears fell from the corners of his eyes.

That is to say, Hanks, Nurnexus, and others who are familiar with Ankai are not there.

If they were there, they would have immediately seen through An Kai's true intentions.

"Run! Lord Ankai is going to play a trick on us!"

This fragment of true spirit in Donglin was extracted from the body of the [Sixfold True Spirit of Magic].

He had no idea about his past.

It's unclear what the real entanglement between An Kai and him is.

Although what Ankai said made him frown.

Especially when An Kai calmly recounted that his mother had been torn apart by a wild beast, leaving only her mouth intact, Dong Lin's doubts continued to surface.

However.

Doubts aside...

Donglin still believed in An Kai's words.

There was nothing he could do; he was the one who walked out of the [Summoning Gate].

Upon hearing that An Kai was about to recount the true cause of Donglin's troubles, Donglin frowned and slowly began to speak.

"Um... how did I die?"

Donglin wanted to call him "Father," but after seeing An Kai's youthful face and comparing it to his own aged appearance, he couldn't bring himself to say it.

An Kai suppressed a laugh, maintaining his sorrowful demeanor, and sighed softly, "Alas! You died a tragic death!"

"First, your limbs were broken by your goddess's simp, then your body was eaten by wild dogs, and later you met a man who liked unconventional love, and he tortured you until you were unrecognizable."

Finally, just as you are about to recover your strength with the help of the treasure, your first enemy suddenly appears and burns you to ashes.

By the time I see you again, your ashes will have already been scattered!

"Stop talking! Stop talking!" Donglin listened to An Kai's story as if he were experiencing it himself, feeling a sharp pain in his limbs and discomfort all over his body.

"My dear son! Don't worry, now that I've finally found you, it's a way of fulfilling your mother's last wish!"

"I'll say it again: as long as I have food to eat, you, Donglin, will have a bowl to wash!"

"Wash the dishes?"

"None of that matters. Just remember that your father loves you very much!"

An Kai opened his arms, as if to embrace Dong Lin.

Donglin tentatively took a step forward, his wrinkled face gazing at An Kai for a moment, a mixture of doubt and confusion in his eyes. His tone was hesitant and uncertain, but finally, his expression hardened, and he spoke with a resolute tone:

"Godfather, is it really true?"

"Why!!!"

"It's true! It's absolutely true!"

An Kai felt completely refreshed after hearing the word "godfather" from him.

It's like drinking a glass of ice-cold watermelon juice in the sweltering heat of June.

It's as if with a single thought, magic can be unleashed to its fullest potential.

It was as if Chris had prepared nearly a hundred pairs of black stockings and asked him if he should wear one.

As if

At this moment, An Kai felt exhilarated from beginning to end.

Thinking back to the days when Donglin trapped him in the desert and targeted him relentlessly, An Kai was targeted one after another.

Looking back on the process of killing Donglin, it was truly full of twists and turns, even more troublesome than killing a god.

Back then, Donglin was an organization I avoided.

Nowadays.

This very person, who was the first major boss in my life, is now standing right in front of me, calling me "godfather" in a straightforward manner?!

Is there anything more exhilarating than this in the world?

Ankai believes there shouldn't be any.

Unless he kills the "God of Law" right now, An Kai thinks that Donglin calling him godfather would be the second most satisfying thing.

Now, well...

Donglin calling himself his godfather was, in An Kai's opinion, the most satisfying thing right now.

The second cool thing is "Chris" wearing black stockings.

"My dear son! Come here and let your father hold you!"

With a thought, An Kai conjured up an armored giant in the form of [French Ligue 1] and it walked toward Dong Lin.

The armored giant opened his arms, as if to embrace him.

After Donglin called out "godfather," he had already accepted his identity.

Facing the armored giant, he tried his best to force a sorrowful expression, shouting:

"Godfather!"

"My good son!"

"Godfather!"

Hey! Ankai never dreamed of this.

Entering the sixth level of the Divine Court can even give you a son.

This son was also his long-time enemy.

Don't be too cool.

After recognizing Donglin, Donglin identified himself as "Ankai's good eldest son, who is not related to him by blood."

He ran around doing all the things a good son should do.

To be fair, Donglin believed that one, and the main, reason why he was able to quickly embody the identity of "Good Son" was because of An Kai's strength.

He was terrifyingly strong; he felt he was no less powerful than the God Lord.

To find a powerful father out of nowhere, and all you have to do is call him godfather, is an incredibly low price to pay.

and

His godfather is a visitor from the outside world, and he is very likely to take him out of the outside world!

Besides

Donglin felt that the [Summoning Gate] was constantly nourishing his body, warm and comforting, like bathing in a hot spring. He hadn't experienced this comfortable feeling for a very long time.

To properly portray himself as the eldest son, Donglin revealed all six layers of information without An Kai needing to say more.

According to Dong Lin's description.

There are ten rulers in total on the sixth floor.

One of them is newly born; there were only nine before.

Above the ten rulers is the God.

Donglin had clearly described the appearance of the deity and his usual style, which made Ankai very certain that the person was "Teacher"!

I had expected the "teacher" to appear on the sixth floor, but after confirming it, I still felt a little melancholy.

Then, Ankai asked Donglin if the "Divine Lord" had any connection with the "God of Law".

According to Donglin, he did not know what connection there was between the "God Lord" and the "Dharma God".

This made An Kai breathe a sigh of relief.

Then, under Donglin's guidance, the father and son embarked on a journey to find the remaining nine rulers.

According to Donglin, there is a way to forcibly summon the God, which is when all ten rulers are dead.

This was something Donglin only learned about recently when a new ruler was born.

In the past, the appearance of the gods was arbitrary, and they had no way of knowing it.

The first ruler chosen by Donglin and Ankai was none other than the recently emerged sixth-level ruler.

He was also a ruler whose territory bordered that of the Donglin faction.

When Donglin mentioned him, his teeth clenched so tightly that they made a grinding sound. Even with his eyes closed, An Kai could guess that something unpleasant must have happened between the two of them.

Ankai guessed correctly.

Donglin did indeed have an unpleasant encounter with the other party.

The birth of a new ruler requires new territory, and this new territory was separated from the Donglin territory.

There was nothing he could do; among the six levels, Donglin was the weakest.

As a result, several conflicts occurred between the Donglin Party and the new rulers.

Ultimately, the matter was dropped because neither side could do anything about the other.

This time, Donglin went to seek revenge.

"Hmph! With my godfather around, let's see how stubborn you are!"

Donglin walked ahead with his head held high, leading the way for Ankai.

Now, he's like a child who, after being bullied, finds his parents to stand up for him, standing tall and full of confidence.

Because Donglin believed that his adoptive father would stand up for him.

Donglin found it strange that his father preferred to call him "godfather" instead of "father."

never mind!

None of this matters!

The sixth level of the Divine Court is still dominated by black and white colors.

The environment is much richer than on the fifth floor.

The mountains and rivers are arranged in a staggered yet orderly fashion.

Every now and then, cities would be nestled among them.

The [Fivefold True Spirit of Magic] is the lord of the city.

According to Donglin, each of their ten rulers had nearly a hundred city lords with the [Five-Level True Spirit of Magic] level under their command.

If this place weren't predominantly black and white, and if the true spirits weren't also black and white, this would be a much more realistic world.

Hierarchical order, social systems, and the world environment are all gradually improved, starting from the first level.

Upon arriving at the sixth floor, we found it to be completely finished.

An Kai didn't understand why his "teacher" had gone to such lengths to create such a world.

He's more looking forward to the real answer.

Or rather, they expect the "teacher" to use methods involving chaotic energy.

If he could learn it by stealing, An Kai would likely never have to worry about improving his spell level in the future.

Perhaps these thoughts wandered elsewhere, and An Kai even began to wonder if his teacher had any way to use the chaotic aura to increase his own attribute points.

Maybe

Have?

Lost in their thoughts, the father and son entered the territory of the Donglin Party's enemies and rulers.

The two had just entered

Then a loud shout came from afar:

"How dare you! You dare trespass into the ruler's territory!"

"Donglin! Do you want to die?"

In the distance, a figure sped toward this place.

Before the person even arrived, a loud shout rang out first!

In the past, when faced with questioning from an enemy, Donglin Shaobu would have trembled a few times.

Now, my godfather is by my side.

Donglin was not flustered at all; in fact, he even had a cold smile on his face as he pondered how to deal with this damned guy!

An Kai remained silent throughout, crossing his arms and sneering.

Before long, the Donglin Party's enemies appeared.

[Sixfold True Spirit of Magic: God of Sorrow].

ohh~

"Another familiar face~"

This "God of Sorrow" was the guy who was beaten to death by those "eighth and ninth-rank gods" in the third level.

No wonder Ankai said this person was an acquaintance.

In the end, this unfortunate "seventh-rank deity" died because of him.

If that guy hadn't slandered Ankai, he wouldn't have become a target for those [eighth and ninth-rank gods].

"Donglin! How dare you!"

"Wasn't the lesson I gave you last time enough?"

"Do you really expect God to save you?!"

"snort!"

The God of Sorrow does not know Ankai.

In his eyes, there was only Donglin, his enemy.

As for Ankai

Because An Kai deliberately concealed his aura, he appeared to the other party as a lackey of Donglin.

"Godfather! It's him!"

Donglin quietly approached Ankai's side, ignoring the strange look from the God of Sorrow, and pointed at the God of Sorrow with one finger, speaking to Ankai in a tone like a spoiled child.

He thought Ankai would stand up for him.

To everyone's surprise, An Kai frowned and said helplessly, "My dear son, I can't help you right now. I used up too much of my strength just now to kill you, and I haven't recovered yet."

"My dear son, this time you'll have to rely on yourself!"

"Huh?" Donglin's mouth dropped open in surprise, and he blurted out instinctively, "You haven't recovered your strength, so why are you looking for him?"

"I didn't look for anyone, you brought me here."

"Besides, you didn't even ask me if my strength had recovered."

"My dear son, I am heartbroken. I exhausted all my strength to save you!"

"I...I...sigh!" Donglin really didn't know what to say.

Just as he was sighing, An Kai had already moved swiftly, retreating nearly 10,000 meters!

As An Kai retreated, Dong Lin could still hear a sound like the gurgling of ocean waves.

He wanted to ask, "Is this really the state one should be in when their strength is completely exhausted?"

"Good job, son! Keep it up!"

After 10,000 meters, An Kai's energetic encouragement echoed through the air.

"It seems your helper doesn't want to help you?" The God of Sorrow sneered, his arms crossed in a cold laugh.

Just as Donglin was about to retort, the figure of the God of Sorrow moved!

Bang!

One punch!

From high above, the God of Sorrow slammed Donglin to the ground.

Donglin was like a shooting star falling from the sky, plummeting at breakneck speed.

The God of Sorrow gave Donglin no chance to catch his breath, instantly closing in on him.

A pair of iron fists slammed out!

With each punch, An Kai felt as if he had swallowed a magic pill.

A feeling of pure, genuine comfort.

"Okay, okay!"

"Put more effort into it!"

When his eldest son got a beating, An Kai, as the adoptive father, almost wanted to celebrate the bravery of the "God of Sorrow."

Boom!

Donglin, who had been knocked unconscious by a pair of iron fists, finally fell to the ground.

With a loud crash, it slammed into the black and white crater.

"Now it's your turn!"

The God of Sorrow raised his face, his expression twisted with rage, and looked at Ankai.
