Chapter 343: You've Received the Rakshasa God's Team Application

"It seems that Xue'er and Bi Ji have completed their god trials on the same day as me." Du Qianjue noticed the ice-blue and green beams of light shooting into the sky in the distance, raising his eyebrows slightly.

Today was indeed a day of double joy. Not only had Du Qianjue successfully completed his god trials, inheriting the positions of the God of Life and the God of Destruction, but Xue Linglong and Bi Ji had also completed their trials, becoming the Ice God and the God of Healing, respectively.

Boom—

Suddenly, another beam of light, this one black and purple, shot up into the sky. Unlike Du Qianjue's power of destruction, this pillar of light was not surrounded by lightning. Instead, a cold, evil purple mist slowly spread out.

"Huo Yuhao? But didn't she already become a god? What's she doing now?" Du Qianjue raised an eyebrow, his expression turning somewhat puzzled.

A beam of light like this usually signaled someone becoming a god, not just saying hello. This is a godhood inheritance ceremony, not some weird party! (sweating emoji)

"Whatever, let's go check it out." Du Qianjue pursed his lips and thoughtfully rubbed his chin.

In the next moment, two figures, one blue and one green, appeared beside him, smiling at him brightly.

The Ice God, Xue Linglong. The God of Healing, Bi Ji.

"You're here?" Du Qianjue turned and smiled at them.

"Yes, we're back!" Xue Linglong nodded with a touch of nostalgia. She had once been a follower of the Ice God, but now she had become the new Ice God herself.

It's worth mentioning that Xue Linglong's Ice God attire was made from the wedding dress Du Qianjue had crafted for her, enhanced with large amounts of Extreme Ice Crystals, Myriad Year Profound Ice Marrow, and some top-tier ice-attribute soul bones.

Bi Ji's God of Healing outfit, however, wasn't custom-made but was part of the God of Healing's position. However, it didn't have as much potential as Xue Linglong's attire.

The God of Healing's outfit resembled the comic depiction of the Goddess of Life, with layers of emerald green feathers forming a luxurious long dress. The hem was adorned with countless tiny gems, which sparkled like a starry sky under the light.

What made it even more interesting…

Xue Linglong's Ice God outfit included white stockings, while Bi Ji's God of Healing attire came with black stockings…

"…?"

What man could resist such a sight?

With two pairs of long legs right in front of him, Du Qianjue's eyes couldn't help but widen. This was the ultimate black-and-white duo!

"Ahem, since you've both successfully completed your god trials, let's go together to meet this new Rakshasa God!" Du Qianjue coughed awkwardly, shifting his gaze toward the direction of the black-purple light pillar.

Naturally, Xue Linglong and Bi Ji had no objections. The three of them transformed into beams of light and appeared before the black-purple pillar in an instant.

As they arrived, the pillar of light gradually dissipated, revealing Huo Dongxue, dressed in the Rakshasa God's armor and holding the Rakshasa Scythe.

"Huo Yuhao, long time no see," Du Qianjue greeted her with a smile.

"Huo Yuhao… Sorry, I haven't used that name in a long time. I'm called Huo Dongxue now," Huo Dongxue replied. Hearing that name again after so long, her cold eyes momentarily showed a flicker of confusion, but she quickly returned to normal.

"Alright, Huo Dongxue, why did you call us here?" Du Qianjue kept his smile, but his mouth twitched slightly.

If he remembered correctly, the name 'Yuhao' had come from some wealthy benefactor. But after that benefactor disappeared, Huo Yuhao's life took a sharp turn, from being an invincible genius to becoming a servant in Tang San's household.

Things had gotten quite interesting—even to the point where she'd changed her name.

"Are you all heading to the Divine Realm next?" Huo Dongxue asked softly.

"Of course. My enemy is in the Divine Realm, and I won't rest until he's dead!" Du Qianjue nodded naturally.

"By the way, he's your enemy too."

"Hmm? What do you mean by that?" Huo Dongxue frowned.

Du Qianjue smiled mysteriously. "Because your entire life has been under his control!"

"Do you remember Wang Dong?"

Wang Dong…

That old name brought memories flooding back to Huo Dongxue's mind. She remembered Wang Dong because he had been one of her few friends.

Later, Wang Dong transformed from a boy into a girl and became a famous beauty at Shrek Academy. Back when Huo Dongxue was still male, she had even fantasized about her.

But Wang Dong'er's overt disdain eventually disheartened Huo Dongxue, causing them to drift apart.

However, Huo Dongxue never forgot how Wang Dong'er had helped her.

That one plant…

The Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid.

Without it, there might not be a Rakshasa God standing here today.

"Do you have news about Wang Dong? What happened to her?" Huo Dongxue asked eagerly.

"Her real name is Tang Wutong, and her father is Tang San, one of the Shrek Seven Monsters from ten thousand years ago, the Sea God Tang San," Du Qianjue explained.

"She approached you because you were the Child of Destiny of this era in the Douluo Continent. Tang San wanted to control you, so he sealed Tang Wutong's memories and used his divine consciousness to guide her to Shrek Academy to find you. But because of my presence, Tang San eventually abandoned this plan."

Du Qianjue didn't know exactly what had happened between Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er, as he was busy with his own pursuits at that time. Huo Yuhao had become practically worthless by then, so Du Qianjue hadn't paid much attention.

But now that Huo Yuhao had become Huo Dongxue, inheriting the position of Rakshasa God, she was worth explaining things to.

Not only because of her former identity as Huo Yuhao but also because her position as Rakshasa God made her a critical threat to Tang San.

Imagine Huo Dongxue and Tang Wutong, wielding the Rakshasa Scythe and the Trident of Tang San, fighting against Tang San. The scene would be spectacular!

"Your entire life has been under Tang San's watch. If it weren't for my presence, you would have spent your life being manipulated by him," Du Qianjue said in the calmest tone, delivering the harshest truth.

"Oh, and by the way, your mother, Huo Yun'er—her soul was likely taken by Tang San to the Divine Realm the moment she died. Whether it still exists, I'm not sure," he added.

"What? My mother's soul?!" Huo Dongxue was stunned.

Even the revelation that Tang San had been controlling her life didn't shock her as much as this.

Huo Dongxue's anger surged instantly.

Her mother was her deepest obsession. Now that Tang Wutong's control over her was gone, her only remaining weak spot was her mother.

Hearing that her mother's soul was in Tang San's hands was more than she could bear.

Du Qianjue smirked. "What did you think? Imagine if you hadn't become a woman and had fallen in love with Tang Wutong as a man. Then Tang San revives your mother, Huo Yun'er. With Tang San's power, do you think your mother, a mere servant, could refuse his demands?"

"As long as Tang Wutong and Huo Yun'er were around, no matter how much you didn't want to, you would have ended up as Tang San's loyal dog, willingly giving up your hatred against Dai Hao and the White Tiger Duke's Mansion."

"Even your surname, Huo, would have been changed back to Dai under Dai Mubai's orders."

Du Qianjue chuckled mockingly. "You've hated that surname all your life."

"This is your life—a pitiful, manipulated life, like a puppet on strings."

"Stop it! Shut up!!" Huo Dongxue's rage, fueled by the power of the Rakshasa God, exploded. Her entire being was enveloped in a sinister purple mist.

If anyone below god level were to touch this mist, even an Ultimate Douluo would likely fall and become an evil soul master.

"What the…? She can still do that?" Du Qianjue watched in shock as Huo Dongxue's power continued to surge.

"She's a second-level god now, and still rising! She's already at the peak of a second-level god!"

Wow!

I just wanted to make Tang San her enemy, not trigger a full-blown meltdown!

Du Qianjue was stunned.

"Tang! San!!!" Huo Dongxue's eyes turned blood-red, her face twisted with terrifying rage.

"You really want to kill him, don't you?" Du Qianjue asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I want to tear him apart and drink his blood!" Huo Dongxue spat out each word with venom.

"Good. You'll have your chance. The Sea God Clan that worships Tang San is still around. If you're bored, go ahead and turn them into your sustenance." Du Qianjue nodded approvingly, then sent her a location through his divine sense.

After inheriting two godly positions and breaking through to the God King level, Du Qianjue's divine sense could now cover the entire Douluo Star.

Tang San's attempt to conceal the Sea God Clan was completely ineffective against Du Qianjue, who could see it as clearly as a beacon.

This conveniently saved Du Qianjue some trouble.

Since Huo Dongxue's hatred was already at its peak, he figured he might as well let her vent. Du Qianjue still had things to do in Douluo Continent, so he couldn't ascend to the Divine Realm just yet. He needed to give Huo Dongxue something to keep her busy.

A bored second-level god could be very dangerous on Douluo Continent.

"The Sea God Clan, huh? Fine, let them be the first to taste my wrath!" Huo Dongxue's face turned icy cold as she flew off, her eyes full of murderous intent.

As he watched the purple light fade into the distance, Du Qianjue chuckled to himself.

Good, another teammate has joined the fight.

Simply defeating Tang San was no longer enough for Du Qianjue. Without raising the stakes, where's the fun in that?
