Douluo: Danheng just want to avoid trouble, Gu Yuena Pursues.-Chapter 231: Seagod Trouble?

Everyone was referring to the anomaly outside.

The statue of the Sea God Poseidon was so enormous that even the people within Heaven Dou City couldn't make out its face clearly.

Of course, not many dared to look directly at a god anyway.

Poseidon was quite pleased with himself.

"I'm not bragging, Dan Heng, but even if they saw me, they absolutely wouldn't recognize me. The statue's face is very different from mine," Poseidon said with a mischievous grin.

Dan Heng merely shook his head slightly, having long grown used to Poseidon's eccentric nature.

Poseidon glanced over and saw the notebook in Dan Heng's hand.

It was filled with theoretical notes—all concerning cross-species reproduction.

After just one glance, Poseidon froze. He stared blankly at Dan Heng and asked, "Dan Heng, what's going on in your head? Why are you researching this kind of thing? If you like children, I could just have my people give you one. Or you could ask the Goddess of Life—she's literally the god of this stuff."

Dan Heng closed the notebook and shook his head gently.

His level of existence couldn't be said to surpass the gods of the Douluo Continent, but at the very least, he was no longer under the dominion of the Goddess of Life.

Moreover, this involved Gu Yuena—formerly the Silver Dragon King—who had been hunted by the Divine Realm. It wouldn't be appropriate to let the Goddess of Life get involved.

Sending messages, either—problem is, the barrier between the Divine Realm and Douluo Continent made communication nearly impossible.

And if the God of Destruction found out? Things would only get worse.

"Enough of that. Give me the distribution map of the Crimson-Bearded Fire Dragons," Dan Heng said bluntly.

Poseidon instantly looked displeased. He glared at Dan Heng and gritted his teeth.

"Dan Heng, don't tell me you're gonna kick me out once you get the map? That would be using me and tossing me aside! That's seriously low of you!"

Dan Heng looked calmly at Poseidon—he really was planning to do exactly that.

"Seriously?! Dan Heng, that's how you treat me? Do you know how much I sacrificed for you? I braved the disapproval of the entire Divine Realm just to fulfill a favor for my best buddy! And this is how you repay me?!"

Poseidon clutched his chest dramatically, looking deeply wounded.

Dan Heng's mouth twitched.

They had been friends for thousands of years. He knew Poseidon was just acting.

"What do you want?" he asked.

Poseidon immediately perked up, chuckling mischievously:

"You know why I came here? I told the Divine Realm my divine artifact had sunk and I needed to find an inheritor... The Divine Committee approved it right away. They were practically dying to get rid of me!"

"One day in the Divine Realm equals a year in the mortal realm. I used that big illusion to trick the Divine Committee, while my true body came to the mortal world to have fun with my best friend."

He was clearly proud of himself.

"???" Dan Heng squinted. This guy didn't have any other 'best friends' left in Douluo Continent.

Even if he had, they had long since reincarnated.

In other words...

"You want to stay at my place?" Dan Heng asked, dumbfounded.

Poseidon nodded vigorously and laughed. "Just the first stop, just the first! I have to meet the woman who managed to tame you. You know, even that Angel chick couldn't win your heart, even until the end..."

When he mentioned the Angel, the smile on Poseidon's face faded.

They were gods from the same era—they naturally knew each other.

Dan Heng hesitated, looked at Poseidon, then nodded and said, "Fine. But don't be too shocked. And especially don't leak any divine power, or the Divine Realm will notice."

Poseidon scoffed and patted Dan Heng's shoulder with a grin: "Dan Heng, you're underestimating my self-control. Unless your wife is the ugliest woman alive, I won't be even slightly surprised!"

Dan Heng shook his head helplessly. "Wait till I'm off duty. For now, make that divine illusion disappear and give me the map."

Poseidon agreed, then gave a smug grin. "See? Still need me, right? Don't worry, I'll come up with an excuse and make it vanish."

Dan Heng couldn't stand how smug he was, so he said coldly, "You're too late. Qian Daoliu from Spirit Hall already found the Crimson-Bearded Fire Dragon and is bringing it to me."

"What?! He dares steal my job?! He's looking for death!"

"I've already delivered all the active fire dragons to you!" Poseidon grumbled unhappily.

He opened the window and began manipulating the illusion...

Meanwhile, amidst the blue divine light—

The giant statue of the Sea God suddenly spoke.

"Do you seek this god's inheritance?"

One sentence instantly ignited everyone's excitement!

The statue pointed toward the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

At that moment, a blue dome rose over the palace, glowing with divine light that rippled like the ocean.

It was the Sea God's divine artifact—Hanhai Universe Barrier—now the national treasure of the Heaven Dou royal family!

The Sea God statue pointed at it, then motioned westward.

The Hanhai Universe Barrier followed the gesture, drawing a blue arc across the sky and disappearing in a flash.

"Then go seek it. I've placed my inheritance there," the Sea God statue said slowly.

At that moment, almost every soul master's heart soared.

Becoming a god!!!

After the Sea God and Angel God, it had been tens of thousands of years since a new god had emerged!

And now—an actual divine inheritance had appeared!

The Sea God statue paid no mind to the kneeling masses below. It raised its hand again and said slowly:

"Spirit Hall... take care."

He specifically glanced toward the palace—toward Qian Daoliu and Qian Renxue.

They had the strongest Angelic divine aura and were easy to identify!

They must be the heads of Spirit Hall. And they had almost made him lose face in front of Dan Heng!

Then, the Sea God statue raised its hand again—over thirty beams of blue light shot out like heavenly flowers scattering across the sky.

No one knew where they went.

Meanwhile, across Douluo Continent—

Wherever a Crimson-Bearded Fire Dragon resided, a beam of blue divine light suddenly appeared.

The dragons were instantly surrounded by the light—and in a blink, they disappeared.

At one such location, a group of soul masters were hiding nearby.

They were waiting for the right moment to capture the dragon.

In the blink of an eye—it vanished.

"What just happened? That huge fire dragon... it's gone?!"

"This is bad! We already reported to the Grand Worshipper! Now it's gone—how do we explain this?!"

"Quick, search the area! Something's wrong!"

The soul masters of Spirit Hall rushed out and ran to where the dragon had vanished.

But there was no trace to be found.

All of them looked increasingly anxious.

The Sea God's giant statue had not yet disappeared.

He bent down again to look at Heaven Dou City. His body, thousands of meters tall, gave the impression that the sky itself was collapsing.

The mortals knelt on the ground, overcome by a sense of hopeless insignificance.

In the library, Dan Heng frowned when he saw this and asked,

"What are you doing? Don't mess around. Don't interfere with my life!"

Poseidon, the Sea God, chuckled,"Aren't I just doing this for my good brother's benefit? Who's your best buddy? I'm giving him a blessing!"

Dan Heng shook his head helplessly. This guy was completely unruly!

Outside the Blue Tyrant Academy.

Liu Erlong and her group were just about to enter when they encountered the divine phenomenon.

Everyone else lowered their heads, and even those inside the carriages got out and knelt down.

Not kneeling before a god? That's just asking to die early!

Yet, there were two people in the group who didn't kneel.

One was Liu Erlong, the other was Zhu Zhuqing.

Even Flender was terrified. He grabbed Liu Erlong's sleeve, bowed his head and said:

"Erlong, don't daze out! Just kneel! This is a real god!"

Liu Erlong shook off his hand irritably:"I'm not his follower, so why should I kneel? If you want to kneel, go ahead. Don't drag me into it."

"Keep your voice down, Erlong... The god won't mind who kneels, but he can clearly see who doesn't! It's not shameful to kneel to a god!"

Flender was so nervous his voice trembled.

Liu Erlong rolled her eyes and kicked Flender over:"I don't believe this god would actually do anything to me. I didn't disrespect him, so why should I kneel?"

Nearby, Zhu Zhuyun and Huo Wu were both kneeling, but they caught sight of Zhu Zhuqing still standing tall out of the corner of their eyes.

Another rebel!

The two women panicked.

Huo Wu quickly said:"Zhuqing, be good, don't mess around at a time like this. Better safe than sorry! We're still young!"

Zhu Zhuyun also pleaded,"Haven't we knelt enough in our lives? To our parents, emperors, teachers... Don't be stubborn now!"

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head:"No. From now on, except for my master... and master's wife, I'll kneel to no one. Not even a god."

"You...!"

Zhu Zhuyun was so angry that her wound nearly tore open.

At that moment, a majestic gaze shot toward them.

The others kept their heads down, unaware of what was happening above. But the increasingly dense blue divine light quickly made them realize—

The god was approaching!

Indeed, the Sea God's giant statue bent down and looked this way, a faint mysterious smile on his face.

"Why aren't you kneeling?"

The Sea God's voice was full of majesty.

Everyone's minds rang with thunder.

Flender didn't even dare breathe, silently praying for Liu Erlong.

"Because I'm not afraid!" Liu Erlong answered defiantly, looking up at the statue.

"Why aren't you afraid?" the Sea God asked again.

Liu Erlong was stunned. She was already bracing herself for divine punishment—why was the god asking her questions?

After a moment's silence, she replied:

"Not afraid means not afraid!"

Everyone's hearts leapt into their throats.

Not just near the academy—people throughout Heaven Dou City were now wondering who was talking to the god.

Was it... an idiot?

The Sea God's statue smiled, then suddenly said:"You're not bad. I like you. Keep working hard..."

As he spoke, he raised a finger. A beam of blue light shot toward Liu Erlong.

Liu Erlong was enveloped in the blue light. Flames emerged on her body, but their nature quickly changed—

From fire dragon... to water dragon!

"???" Liu Erlong was completely dumbfounded. What is wrong with this god?!

The Sea God statue then turned to look at Zhu Zhuqing.

Just as he was about to speak, he paused, then slowly stood upright, and gradually disappeared.

The blue divine light enveloping Heaven Dou City quickly faded away.

In a few seconds, the world returned to normal.

Flender immediately stood up and looked toward Liu Erlong with concern.

The change on Liu Erlong's body had faded, but the dragon spirit behind her, previously a fire dragon, had completely changed—now it was a water dragon!

Her face turned dark. After a few seconds, she suddenly yelled:

"That bastard's crazy!!!"

"Why the hell did he change my martial spirit?! All my seven spirit rings were configured for a fire dragon!!"

Liu Erlong was absolutely furious.

If she had a blade, she'd go fight Poseidon himself right now!

This was torment, not a blessing!

Flender quietly shuffled away, not daring to speak to her in this state. He knew he'd just get screamed at.

Zhu Zhuyun and Huo Wu stood up and checked Zhu Zhuqing thoroughly.

"Senior sister, are you hurt? Like, did your martial spirit change too?" Huo Wu asked with concern.

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head,"No..."

Zhu Zhuyun sighed in relief,"That's good. You're really bold, though. Facing a god like that..."

Zhu Zhuqing remained silent, deep in thought.

She could feel that the god wanted to speak to her.

But something had seemed to interrupt him.

In the library.

Dan Heng looked helplessly at the grinning Poseidon.

"You're completely out of control!"

Poseidon laughed heartily:"No way! I really admire that woman—she's great! I was even gonna adjust her spirit rings too, but you stopped me! Can't blame me for that!"

He quickly tried to shift the blame.

Dan Heng twitched his mouth,"If I hadn't stopped you, were you going to mess with my disciple too?"

"What? Your disciple?"

Poseidon froze, grabbing Dan Heng's shoulders,"Wait wait wait—hold on. You have a disciple now?"

"That little girl," Dan Heng answered.

Poseidon's mouth twitched in disbelief:"You... What exactly have you been doing all these years?"

"Now I'm really curious. How much have you changed since back then?"

"And your wife—I've got to see what kind of woman could actually change you!"

In the Crown Prince's Mansion.

Qian Daoliu and Qian Renxue got up from the ground.

When Poseidon mentioned the Spirit Hall, they had both sensed divine attention and knelt immediately.

Qian Renxue murmured,"'Behave yourselves'... what does that mean?"

Qian Daoliu looked tense and furrowed his brow,"Could it be we offended the god somehow? The Spirit Hall has destroyed many evil cults, but none of them had a divine inheritance..."

Suddenly, a flash of golden light appeared beside Qian Daoliu.

A brilliant golden holy sword materialized in his hand.

"The Angelic Holy Sword?" Qian Daoliu was stunned.

This was the sacred sword passed down by the Angel God.

Why had it suddenly appeared now?

He tried to pull it out—but it wouldn't budge!

The sword seemed fused with its sheath!

"Grandfather?" Qian Renxue looked on in surprise.

"Xue'er, you try it..." said Qian Daoliu.

Qian Renxue tried—but the sword remained unmoving.

The two exchanged glances, both utterly confused.

Where... had they gone wrong?
