Upon hearing the Asura God's words, Tang Chen's heart was instantly jolted awake!
That's right, the Asura God was inherently stronger than the Sea God. Even if Mo Hui became a god, how could a newly ascended Mo Hui compare to the Asura God, who had been a god for an unknown period of time?
However, Poseidon's suggestion could still be agreed to. What if?
Moreover, this would allow for easier contact with Mo Hui.
With this thought, Tang Chen feigned a moment of hesitation, then nodded to Poseidon.
Soon, the two arrived at the entrance of Mo Hui's courtyard. Just as they were about to knock, a gust of wind blew, and the courtyard door opened by itself.
The two looked into the courtyard and saw Mo Hui sitting at a stone table in a pavilion, gently flipping through a book in his hand. A special large sparrow stood on his shoulder, and his aura blended with the environment, making it impossible to tell that this was a god!
"Chirp chirp ~"
Seeing the two arrive, Pidgeot, who had transformed into Pidgeot, glanced at them briefly, then paid them no further attention.
Although Poseidon and Tang Chen were top powerhouses on the Douluo Continent, to the current Pidgeot, they were mere dregs that could be crushed at will.
After Mo Hui inherited the Wind God Position, Pidgeot's strength also underwent a qualitative change. The current Pidgeot was even stronger than the Deep Sea Demon Whale King who had survived the ninth heavenly tribulation, let alone Poseidon and Tang Chen, these two demigod-level powerhouses.
Do you understand the value of the Douluo Continent's fastest speed?
Pidgeot didn't even need to use any Spirit Abilities; just by crashing into them, it could easily kill Poseidon and Tang Chen.
After a moment of stunned, Poseidon quickly walked up to Mo Hui with Tang Chen, knelt on one knee, and cupped her hands, saying, "Lord Mo Hui, I..."
However, before she could finish, she heard Mo Hui's voice coming from the pavilion.
"I already know your intentions."
Mo Hui put down the book in his hand, looked at Poseidon, and said, "Restoring his body to its peak is not difficult for me now, but I am powerless regarding his currently shattered soul."
"Even you can't do it?"
Upon hearing Mo Hui's words, Poseidon was stunned and asked.
Others only thought Mo Hui was the Sea God's successor, but Poseidon, as the former Great Priest of Sea God Island, knew clearly that Mo Hui was snatched by their Lord Sea God from another deity.
And Mo Hui's other God's Trial had not been canceled. From various signs, Mo Hui had already inherited the God Position of that deity. The current Mo Hui should hold two God Positions and cannot be compared to ordinary God Position successors.
Mo Hui shook his head and said, "He is the Asura God's successor. Although his God's Trial failed, his soul was already branded with the Asura God's mark. If the Asura God doesn't want it, no one can save him."
And when Tang Chen heard that Mo Hui's words were identical to those of the Asura God, his face instantly turned pale, and the last shred of hope in his heart vanished.
"Alas ~ Perhaps this is fate."
Poseidon sighed. If even Mo Hui, this dual God Position successor, said it was impossible, then Tang Chen was truly beyond saving.
However, this was also normal. The inheritance of a God Position was inherently fraught with danger. It was already a miracle that Tang Chen survived for so many years after failing the inheritance.
Immediately, Tang Chen 'plop' knelt down and said in a pleading tone, "Lord Sea God, may I trouble you with one matter?"
"Speak!"
Mo Hui glanced at Tang Chen and said unhurriedly.
Tang Chen took out the Asura Demon Sword from a nearby space, held it above his head with both hands, and said, "This sword is an inheritance item of the Asura God. However, the Asura God is somewhat sinister, so I wish to entrust this sword to Lord Sea God for safekeeping, to prevent it from being used by those with ill intentions and thus bringing disaster to the world."
After Tang Chen finished speaking, Mo Hui fell silent, seemingly in thought.
And Tang Chen remained in the posture of offering the sword, waiting for Mo Hui's answer with some trepidation.
A moment later, Mo Hui's voice came.
"Alright, I agree!"
Upon hearing Mo Hui's voice, Tang Chen's heart instantly throbbed with excitement, as if it was about to leap out. He suppressed his inner turmoil and slowly walked to Mo Hui with the Asura Demon Sword, handing the sword over to Mo Hui.
Then, Tang Chen smiled and said, "With this matter settled, I can rest in peace."
After Tang Chen finished speaking, he seemed to be relieved of a heavy burden, and his body instantly turned into ashes and dissipated.
And Poseidon, watching this scene, could only let out a long sigh.
It's fate! Tang Chen must be happy even in the underworld.
"Alright, this matter is settled. After Sea God Island calms down, I will head to the Douluo Continent. If you have anything you need to do, go do it quickly."
At this moment, Mo Hui suddenly waved his hand at Poseidon and said.
"Yes!"
Poseidon saluted Mo Hui respectfully, then slowly retreated from the courtyard.
However, this time she was smarter and called a Spirit King-level maid. With the maid's help, she didn't take long to return to her former residence.
As for Mo Hui, he merely glanced at the Asura Demon Sword and then slowly spoke, "Senior Asura God, aren't you coming out yet?"
In fact, the moment the Asura Demon Sword was taken out, he noticed something was off, which was why he accepted it.
As for Tang Chen's explanation, he didn't believe it at all. Tang Chen wasn't that righteous. Given Tang Chen's extreme emphasis on his family, sending the Asura Demon Sword back to the Clear Sky Sect would have been the most normal and likely way to handle it.
Even if he didn't have much time left and couldn't send the Asura Demon Sword to the Clear Sky Sect, he could have asked Poseidon!
Given Poseidon's relationship with him, sending the Asura Demon Sword would have been a small matter.
Therefore, Tang Chen's insistence on handing the Asura Demon Sword to him was definitely not as simple as just placing the Asura Demon Sword; it was more likely that he had ulterior motives.
And what could Tang Chen, a mere mortal, do to him? That could only be the Asura God's intervention.
"As expected of someone valued by the Wind God, and whom the Sea God would disregard all face to snatch away. You discovered my existence so easily."
At this moment, a burly man in blood-colored armor appeared before Mo Hui. Although it was just a phantom, it still made Mo Hui feel a chilling coldness.
Looking at the Asura God's phantom that suddenly appeared before him, Mo Hui's expression remained unchanged, neither humble nor arrogant, and he said, "I wonder what Senior Asura God's intentions are in going to such lengths to approach this junior? Although there is no precedent in the God Realm for one person to inherit two God Positions, I should not have violated any regulations of the God Realm, right?"
Mo Hui didn't know all the regulations of the God Realm, but given the Sea God's cunning personality, since he did it, there shouldn't be any problems.
What's more, didn't Tang San in the original work also obtain two God Positions in an unconventional way?
The Asura God sized up Mo Hui appreciatively, then suddenly spoke, "Kid, interested in inheriting my Asura God Position?"
