In the Divine Realm, while communicating with Su Chen, the God of Destruction kept scanning the Douluo Continent.
He sent Su Chen to the Star Dou Great Forest naturally because that was where the first spirit ring suitable for Su Chen to absorb was located.
He still remembered that ten thousand years after Tang San became a god in his past life, his son-in-law, who was trained like a dog, had obtained a million-year spirit ring in the Star Dou Great Forest.
The God of Destruction had confirmed that the Tianmeng Iceworm was already in the Star Dou Great Forest.
Moreover, this bug had been captured by the Spirit Beasts in the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest, and they were sitting in a row absorbing its power.
What the God of Destruction needed to consider was how to make the Tianmeng Iceworm escape just as Su Chen arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest, and willingly become Su Chen’s spirit ring.
As for whether Su Chen was a Mental-type Spirit Master, that was a secondary issue.
Having received the blessing of the Goddess of Life, Su Chen’s vitality had become incomparably strong, and furthermore, the water of life had not been completely absorbed by him.
When acquiring the Tianmeng Iceworm spirit ring, he would be fully capable of supporting Su Chen in absorbing it smoothly without being unable to withstand it.
As for the Tianmeng Iceworm, it was currently a bit short of being a million-year beast, and Su Chen was not a Mental-type Spirit Master.
Moreover, the method the God of Destruction intended to take would be a bit rougher; it had basically no possibility of becoming a sentient spirit ring, and since it kept chattering on and on, it would just have to obediently act as a spirit ring.
The God of Destruction did not feel it was a pity.
Having the spirit ring was enough; what was the point of having a big, chatty bug?
The God of Destruction certainly had no favorable impression of this big bug that was Tang San’s son-in-law’s; he only felt complete disgust.
Withdrawing his gaze from the Star Dou Great Forest, the God of Destruction looked in other directions.
He could not pay attention to Su Chen every moment, so he had to find a powerful Spirit Master who could protect him.
The God of Destruction naturally would not look upon ordinary Spirit Masters, so the only ones he could choose were Titled Douluo.
And in the current Douluo Continent, apart from the Upper Three Sects and the Spirit Hall, Titled Douluo were few and far between.
The God of Destruction could not choose people from the Upper Three Sects.
The Upper Three Sects all had deep relationships with Tang San; needless to say about the Clear Sky Sect, while the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect were the Sect of Tang San’s partner and the Sect of Tang San’s teacher, respectively.
It was already a mercy that the God of Destruction didn’t just strike these Sects down with a bolt of lightning.
“It will be you.”
The God of Destruction’s gaze lingered briefly on Spirit City, but he still chose a Titled Douluo who was on his own.
“Hiss~ Why is it a bit chilly?”
In the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well of the Sunset Forest, Dugu Bo was happily tending to various medicinal herbs.
Suddenly, he felt a chill descend from above, causing him to shiver uncontrollably.
Dugu Bo instinctively looked towards the cold spring eye of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, thinking the chill came from there.
“Strange, could it be that my poison backlash is too severe, to the point where I can’t even suppress the unique power of this special place?”
He was completely unaware that he had been chosen by a certain God King to act as a bodyguard to protect Su Chen at all times in his stead.
“His strength is a bit lacking, but there is still room for improvement, and this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well can provide some assistance to Su Chen.”
The God of Destruction was somewhat dissatisfied with Dugu Bo’s strength, but he was thinking about how to make him a more suitable bodyguard.
The God of Destruction had never heard of Dugu Bo in his past life.
After all, he was not the Asura God, and in his past life, he hadn’t paid that much attention to Tang San.
Dugu Bo was neither from the Sect of Tang San’s partner nor the Sect of Tang San’s teacher.
After Tang San became a god, he never even mentioned Dugu Bo; he had long since forgotten about him somewhere.
The God of Destruction, of course, would not know that Dugu Bo had played a crucial role in Tang San’s growth.
He was just a bit curious how the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, occupied by this Titled Douluo, became Tang San’s family heirloom in the future.
However, his doubt was only fleeting.
Given Tang San’s character, whether in the Divine Realm or the Douluo Continent, he was always thinking about making everything his family’s property.
With such a treasure land in the Douluo Continent, it would be strange if he didn’t pocket it.
Douluo Continent.
After entering the city, Su Chen said goodbye to Old He and was completely on his own.
Only when he was in a deserted place did he put his luggage into the pendant space.
“Huh?”
When putting his luggage away, Su Chen discovered there was a small cloth bag inside the bundle.
“Uncle Village Chief is really something; if he wanted to give me money, he could have just given it to me directly, instead of hiding it.”
In this small cloth bag, there were unexpectedly some Spirit coins.
There weren’t too many Spirit coins, only three silver coins and about twenty bronze coins.
But in the village, only the village chief could come up with this much money.
Although Su Chen was complaining, he was very moved inside.
He had no blood relation to the village chief’s family, yet they cared for him so thoroughly; Su Chen was not cold-hearted, so he naturally would remember their kindness.
The God of Destruction in the Divine Realm slapped his forehead.
He had never lived the life of a Mortal and had completely forgotten that Su Chen would need to spend money while traveling.
“Let me find where there are some Spirit coins.”
While the God of Destruction was looking for travel money for Su Chen, Su Chen encountered a minor trouble.
“Kid, hand over all your money.”
“A little brat actually carrying so much money on him; damn, he’s richer than me.”
Two guys who looked like thugs walked over, their eyes gleaming as they stared at the cloth bag in Su Chen’s hand.
Even in the city, there were poor people, and these two guys before him were exactly that.
“You want my money?”
Su Chen asked without changing his expression.
“That’s right; if you’re smart, hand it over obediently.”
The two delivered classic villain lines.
“And what about me?”
Su Chen asked again.
The two thugs were clearly getting impatient.
“You, of course, should just get lost; do you think you can cling to us?”
As he spoke, one of the two stepped forward quickly, reaching out to snatch the money bag from Su Chen’s hand.
“Then I understand now.”
Su Chen remained expressionless, and the person reaching for the money bag felt something was wrong.
How could an ordinary child be so calm when encountering robbers?
Before he could finish his confusion, a piercing pain shot from his right leg.
“Ah~ My leg.”
Su Chen already had the Life Destruction Spear in hand and swung it at the man’s right leg.
These two harbored evil intentions, but at least they only wanted to rob money and had no intention of killing.
Su Chen did not go so far as to kill them; breaking a leg was a minor punishment to warn them.
“You…
don’t come over.”
The man behind saw his companion fall to the ground and let out a scream like a slaughtered pig, and he panicked immediately.
Especially after seeing the Life Destruction Spear in Su Chen’s hand, he was even more terrified.
“You…
are you a Spirit Master?”
He didn’t notice that there were no spirit rings on Su Chen’s Spirit, which clearly meant he wasn’t a Spirit Master yet; his mind was entirely focused on escaping.
Thugs who would rob a child couldn’t be people of much courage.
Crack~
Before he could run a few steps, the man heard a crisp cracking sound coming from his own lower body.
“Ah~”
In the alley, the miserable screams of the two echoed one after another.
Walking out of the alley leisurely, it was still early, and Su Chen did not intend to stay in the city for long.
Just as he was preparing to buy some necessities and leave the city, he heard the voice of the God of Destruction:
“You first go towards the east; there you will find the travel money you need for your journey.”
