Chapter 110: The Sorrow of the Beast God

"You seem to know a bit more than those humans?"

Gazing at Su Yu's pitch-black pupils, Di Tian remained silent for a long time before slowly speaking.

"Actually, after so many years have passed on the Douluo Continent, how many peerless Soul Masters have become gods? When people are still bitterly pursuing the footprints of gods, have they ever thought that a true god would never stoop down to look at their believers even once?"

Slowly walking to the front of Life Lake and looking at the rippling reflection in the water, Su Yu, at this moment, seemed like a friend of Di Tian's from many years ago.

Di Tian looked up at the sky and said, "You are right; after so many years, how many people have become gods?"

Perhaps no one could communicate with Di Tian so calmly, and Di Tian had never discussed this topic so calmly with a human; at this moment, Su Yu could clearly feel an indelible sorrow and desolation on Di Tian.

Beside him, the light seemed to be distorted; the twisted halo, combined with the dim sky, possessed a strange beauty at this moment.

Casually scooping up a bowl of lake water and gently sprinkling it onto the ground, this scene was taken in by Di Tian, but Su Yu only looked at Di Tian and said, "Eras will change, just like the development of humans. We once explored the path of soul power, and now we are exploring the development of Soul Guidance Devices. The era is changing, but Soul Beasts are constantly falling behind; their territories are being encroached upon, and powerful Soul Beasts are reduced to human Soul Rings and soul bones. Then, does the Beast God think, what is the path of the Soul Beast? Is it like this bowl of water, eventually disappearing into the soil?"

A look of surprise appeared in Di Tian's eyes, and that pair of dragon eyes, when looking at Su Yu, actually trembled slightly, "It has been many years since any living creature has been able to give me such interest as today. Do you really want to know?"

"When you have lived for hundreds of thousands of years, witnessed every speck of dust in the Star Dou Great Forest, the growth of every Soul Beast, and experienced every bizarre story in this world, perhaps you would be like me, just quietly guarding this Star Dou Great Forest."

"In my early years, I had already explored this world; this world is a giant sphere. Excluding the Douluo Continent that is currently colliding with it, in this world, most other places are sea areas."

Di Tian was like a learned sage recounting his experiences; perhaps these things would be shocking news if placed in this world, but Su Yu did not feel any surprise at all.

"Actually, the world is spherical, even the sun, moon, and stars in the sky are spherical. Outside this world, there are actually other worlds, but if we want to step out of this world, we will also be blocked by the barrier of this world. Senior, I wonder if what I said is correct?"

Looking back at Di Tian, Su Yu actually wanted to laugh; when you talk to me about science, you have already lost.

"Since the outside world is so big, why don't you go out and see it?" Su Yu continued to ask.

Di Tian shook his head and did not answer Su Yu's question, "Actually, I didn't expect that your appearance would bring me enough surprises. You are different from other humans, and you are not even repulsed by what we call Beasts in the mouths of humans. It is a pity that you are not a Soul Beast."

"Soul Beast or human, at least Soul Beasts still retain the most simple kindness, don't they?" Looking at the Life Lake, which was beginning to ripple, Su Yu could not help but ask in return.

Having said this, Di Tian did not continue speaking; his figure slowly faded and finally disappeared from Su Yu's field of vision.

"Whether in the future or the present, the development of Soul Beasts is always in a chaotic state without a clue. Under the law of this world where humans must hunt Soul Beasts, Soul Beasts are destined to perish, and the constant extinction of Soul Beasts will create even more powerful humans. As long as the essence of humans hunting Soul Beasts to obtain power does not change, Soul Beasts will eventually fall into a crisis of extinction."

Looking at the place where Di Tian disappeared, Su Yu looked at his own reflection in the lake and said.

He knew that Di Tian had not left; his words were not only for Di Tian to hear, but also for the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, who was still recovering from her injuries in this lake.

The next day.

Chi Wang carried a Soul Beast of nearly twenty thousand years in his mouth and arrived at the place where Su Yu was, "Don't be smug; if it weren't for Di Tian's orders, I would never allow a human like you to absorb a Soul Ring in front of me, Chi Wang!"

Looking at Chi Wang's arrogant appearance, Su Yu could only smile helplessly. This was an eighteen-thousand-year-old subspecies of the Dragon Clan, a Purple-Eyed Demon Dragon, that was about to die. If its lifespan hadn't been coming to an end, it wouldn't have been sent to serve as a Soul Ring for Su Yu.

If nothing else, it was better than Su Yu bringing people from Shrek into the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt; weighing the pros and cons, they still knew how to make trade-offs.

Su Yu's current physical strength, after being strengthened by Life Gold, had already reached a near-limit level.

Su Yu's own physical strength could already strengthen his body and Spirit Power by absorbing Soul Rings through his Fragment Martial Soul, and with the help of Life Gold, it directly broke through a limit, allowing the Soul Ring age that Su Yu could attach to skyrocket.

The moment that pitch-black ten-thousand-year Soul Ring rose from the body of the Purple-Eyed Demon Dragon, Su Yu had already asked Electrolux to preserve its soul as much as possible; after all, this old dragon had willingly dedicated its entire soul power to him.

Originally, attaching a Soul Ring was a difficult and risky time, but this fusion was surprisingly smooth. Looking at the weak soul that had appeared in his mind, Su Yu also smiled with relief.

Some things, after all, have commemorative significance.

Life in the Star Dou Great Forest was actually very simple: cultivation, researching Soul Guidance Devices, making Soul Guidance Devices, and when truly bored, sitting on the back of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion to visit the various Beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest. When idle, he would be robbed by them, and then he would have to hand over Soul Guidance Devices for them to play with.

Anyway, none of those Beasts were serious. Speaking of which, they were also interested in Soul Guidance Devices. Originally, they were disdainful, but ever since Su Yu took out that Heaven-Opening Cannon, things gradually started to go off track...

Anyway, ever since then, the Fixed Soul Guidance Cannonballs on Su Yu's body started to gradually go missing...

One month later.

Looking at the Star Dou Great Forest getting further and further behind him, Su Yu finally left this place.

"Thank you for your care; I hope that in the future, we will not be enemies." Looking at the many Beasts who had come to see him off, as well as Di Tian, who had turned into black mist.

Looking at Su Yu, who had already left the range of the Star Dou Great Forest, Di Tian asked with some hesitation, "Master, are we really going to let him leave?"

"Since we can't find it, he has no value to be used, but, he..."

Speaking to this point, the voice stopped abruptly.

No matter what, anyway, I, Su, have finally escaped. With the relationship of the Emperor's Auspicious Beast, at least I won't be beaten up by powerful Soul Beasts here in the future.

Looking at the magnificent Shrek City, Su Yu could not help but sigh, "I, your father, have finally returned!"

Having been under house arrest for more than two months, in that place far away from human society, I, Su, spent a long and lonely two months.

During this period, Yi Lao was completely in a deep sleep, mainly for fear that after waking up, the weak Yi Lao would be instantly swallowed by the Silver Dragon King as a tonic.

It is true that I, Su, am afraid of death, but Yi Lao is also afraid of death!

Seeking death and being willing to die are two different things; the two are not on the same level at all.

After entering Shrek City, Su Yu finally returned to Shrek Academy, and this news instantly spread into the Sea God Pavilion.

As soon as Su Yu entered Shrek, he was taken to the Sea God Pavilion by the Martial God Douluo Xian Lin'er and sent before Mu Lao.

Looking at the increasingly frail Mu Lao before him, Su Yu knew that even without that attack from the Evil Soul Masters, Mu Lao's body would not be able to hold on for much longer.

Sitting in front of Mu Lao were Huo Yu Hao and Ma Xiaotao; Yan Shaozhe was also quietly looking at Mu Lao from the side, and behind Mu Lao was Xuan Lao.

"Su Yu, you are back..."

Mu Lao's body was getting worse and worse; people have birth, aging, sickness, and death, and even those standing at the peak of the continent could not change this law.

It was still more than a year until the day Mu Lao passed away in the original story...

"I am back, Mu Lao, I have made you worry." Su Yu bowed respectfully, just as he had when he first met the various elders of the Sea God Pavilion.

"It is good that you are back, it is good that you are back..."

Mu Lao did not say much, just nodded with relief. His state looked no different from when they returned, but Su Yu, who possessed powerful Life Force, could see at a glance that Mu Lao's vitality was constantly draining away.

Huo Yu Hao still became Mu Lao's disciple, but now, Huo Yu Hao was also a disciple of Du Busi of the Body Sect.

Because of Huo Yu Hao, the relationship between the Body Sect and Shrek had also eased. Most importantly, Huo Yu Hao's performance was simply to the liking of that old guy Du Busi: obedient, hardworking, and talented.

Du Busi felt that Mu En being able to make such a decision was simply a huge bargain for him, so Huo Yu Hao's current strength was also growing at an astonishing speed.

After accompanying Mu Lao to recount his experiences in the Star Dou Great Forest, Mu Lao let Su Yu go back. Before leaving, Mu Lao seemed to see through Su Yu's worries.

"Su Yu, people will always have birth, aging, sickness, and death. This old man has already spent more than two hundred years in this world; what else is there to regret?" Mu Lao looked at Su Yu calmly, without any worry at all.

Su Yu also nodded and replied, "I understand, take care, Mu Lao."

After returning to the dormitory, the moment he opened the door, Su Yu saw his things arranged neatly, there was no dust on the table, and his bed had been tidied up cleanly.

It seemed Wang Dong had indeed cleaned the room; otherwise, his bed would definitely not be that clean and tidy.

When Su Yu returned, a warm, soft figure crashed directly into Su Yu's arms, holding onto him tightly and refusing to let go.

"Alright, alright, didn't I come back safe and sound? Have you been practicing well during the time I was away?"

Holding Wang Dong, he sat down by the bed, gently patting Wang Dong's slightly trembling body, and they remained silent for a long time like this.

"You never came back, I thought you, you..."

As he spoke, Wang Dong almost let the tears he had struggled to hold back fall; looking at Wang Dong's sorrowful appearance, Su Yu also felt a bit of heartache.

"I'm not that easy to kill, you hope for my death day after day, can't you think of something positive..."

Fine, I know you're a child who loves to cry, it's okay, I'll just do the coaxing, you just do the crying, if I can't coax you, that's on me!

Snuggling in Su Yu's arms, Wang Dong punched Su Yu's chest indignantly and said huffily, "You didn't even tell me when you came back, if Mu Lao hadn't told me, I wouldn't even know you were back. Tell me, don't you deserve a beating!"

"If you beat me to death, who will take care of you, who will cook for you, and who will perform the Martial Soul Fusion Skill with you?" Su Yu was amused by these words and couldn't help but retort.

"This... I don't care, you deserve a beating, you made me worry for so long, beating you is only right."

As he spoke, Wang Dong began to wave his little fists and started pounding on Su Yu's ribs, and Su Yu had no choice but to start dodging.

"You are not allowed to use your martial soul, and you are not allowed to use soul skills!"

Seeing that Su Yu was about to unleash his martial soul and was about to slip away, Wang Dong spoke up immediately.

"That's not fair, why?" Su Yu replied, refusing to be outdone, and then without another word, he unleashed his Second Soul Skill and started running away.

Did Su Yu not know what Wang Dong wanted to do? Wasn't it just seizing an opportunity to give him a beating?

Then, the entire hallway was filled with the figures of the two chasing and playing, until they were both tired from fighting, supported each other back, and then lay on the bed laughing heartily.

"Actually, I really want to know, what did you experience after you were taken away?" Wang Dong nudged Su Yu, who was lying beside him, with his elbow.

Looking at Wang Dong's expectant eyes, Su Yu asked, "Oh, do you really want to know?"

"Tell me, let me hear how you, Su Yu, struggled to survive in a world of so many Soul Beasts."

Wang Dong looked at Su Yu with a face full of expectation; having been taken away for so long without a single word of news, now that he was back, Su Yu's experiences were definitely what made him most curious.

"I'm not telling you, if you want to hear it, beg me, if you beg me, I'll tell you..."

Wang Dong: "............"

Bang!

Poor Su-mou-ren was kicked off the bed by Wang Dong just like that, and when Su-mou-ren climbed back up, he wore an evil smile and stretched his wicked hands toward the innocent and adorable Class Monitor Wang.

"Hahahaha, I was wrong, Su Yu I was wrong, stop tickling, stop tickling..."

"Hahaha..."

After Su Yu's return, Shrek's Extreme Individual Soldier Plan was also launched, among which the makeup course gave Su Yu the biggest headache, but when Su Yu took out a large bottle of medicinal pills specifically for dealing with such courses, this course became completely meaningless to him.

The teacher teaching them the course also knew that Su Yu had the capital not to study; such unique conditions were indeed something others could not compare with.

As for concealment abilities, Su Yu had long since learned more powerful abilities from Yi Lao, so there was absolutely no need to worry about this course.
