Tang San turned his head, looking at his father, who was drunk and rolling around on the ground. This was a scene he had never witnessed in his past memories.
In his previous life, when Tang San transmigrated, it wasn't until he was two or three years old that he slowly regained his past consciousness. Naturally, he hadn't seen such a fragile and pained side of his once majestic and indomitable father.
Tang San knew that at this moment, his father had just suffered the pain of losing his mother. His heart ached with his father's anguish.
In his previous life, his mother died, but later, with Tang San's help, she was resurrected. Xiao Wu sacrificed herself, but later Tang San also resurrected her. The deep blood feud with Spirit Hall was avenged, and he himself became a dual God, living a complete life. If there was one regret from his previous life...
It was not personally killing that scoundrel Qian Xunji!
Because of Qian Xunji, his mother sacrificed herself. Because of Qian Xunji, Grandmaster and Senior Bibi Dong, two lovers, couldn't be together. He was the root of all tragedy, yet he died shortly after Tang San was born.
He died completely, even his soul was devoured by Bibi Dong. Even God King Tang San couldn't bring Qian Xunji back to life to be whipped.
This was a regret that wasn't quite a regret for Tang San in his previous life.
Seeing his father in such pain, Tang San's heart also filled with hatred for Qian Xunji.
He looked at his father, his small eyes becoming incredibly resolute. He couldn't speak, but he thought with determination:
Father, don't worry. That culprit, Qian Xunji, who caused our family to fall to this state, is already dead. The entire Douluo Continent will spread your mighty name, Clear Sky Douluo.
Father, Mother will definitely be resurrected in the future. Your son will become the Sea God and Asura God, renowned throughout the Douluo Continent. Don't look at Spirit Hall as being at its peak now; in my eyes, Spirit Hall is nothing but a pile of dry bones in a tomb. The day I, Tang San, achieve Godhood will be the day Spirit Hall turns to ashes.
Originally, the reborn Tang San was confused, but now his eyes became much more determined. It's just reliving life again, isn't it? Knowing all future developments, can I, Tang San, do worse than in my previous life? In his previous life, Tang San became God King Tang San without knowing anything. Now, he, Tang San, can also reach that same step as in his previous life.
Calming himself, Tang San began to ponder what he should do next.
As a reborn person, he would naturally choose the optimal path for this life. However, after careful consideration, Tang San realized that the path he had taken in his previous life was already his optimal solution.
Whether it was God Positions, immortal herbs, external Spirit Bones, or various opportunities, all the benefits of the Douluo Continent for the next hundred years were monopolized by him. If there were any opportunities on Spirit Hall's side, he couldn't possibly intercept Qian Renxue's angel god inheritance or seize Bibi Dong's Rakshasa God inheritance, could he?
I, Tang San, am the man chosen by Asura God. With Asura God, Rakshasa God is not even wanted by dogs.
After thinking for a long time, Tang San was shocked to find that the path he took in his previous life was indeed the optimal solution. In this life, he only needed to follow the path of his previous life exactly as before, and it would be fine. The most he could do was make minor adjustments to his previous path, for example, not choosing a 600-year spirit ring for his second spirit ring. At least a seven or eight hundred-year spirit ring would not disgrace his reputation as God King Tang San.
However, while planning his future life, Tang San fell into an ethical dilemma.
When Tang San carefully reviewed his first half of life, he found that many of his opportunities were obtained when Xiao Wu was in danger.
For example, when Xiao Wu was captured by the Titan Giant Ape, Tang San chased after her and encountered a Man Faced Demon Spider. After absorbing the Man Faced Demon Spider, he obtained a set of Eight Spider Lances. However, Tang San, knowing the future, knew that the Titan Giant Ape would not harm Xiao Wu. So, should he, Tang San, pretend to be extremely concerned about Xiao Wu, chase after her, and then "coincidentally" encounter the Man Faced Demon Spider, kill it, and absorb it?
And later, when he was hunting for his fourth spirit ring, the Ghostly Perfume Soul Beast attracted Man Faced Demon Spiders and Dreadclaw Demon Spiders. Tang San also knew that the Man Faced Demon Spider would injure Xiao Wu. This was also an opportunity for him to absorb the Man Faced Demon Spider's venom and evolve an external Spirit Bone. Should he do it?
Furthermore, a large part of the reason Tang San's spirit rings were able to advance later was because Xiao Wu was forced by Spirit Hall to sacrifice herself to him. Only then did Tang San achieve the feat of a 100,000-year spirit ring for his sixth spirit ring. With this foundation, Tang San could have 100,000-year spirit rings for his seventh, eighth, and ninth rings.
Also, the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python, these two 100,000-year spirit rings, he was only able to obtain their willing sacrifice because of Xiao Wu.
Without Xiao Wu's sacrifice, where would he have gotten his dual Godhood?
When he didn't know what was going to happen, Tang San could accept it with a clear conscience. But now that he knew what was going to happen, should he, Tang San, let it continue to happen?
He couldn't possibly put his hands on Xiao Wu's shoulders and say, "Xiao Wu, sacrifice yourself to me. I'll resurrect you after a while."
Would I, Tang San, still be able to say I'm the brother who loves my little sister Xiao Wu the most?
The distress of knowing the plot plunged Tang San into a dilemma. Most of his opportunities unfolded when Xiao Wu was in danger. If he deeply loved Xiao Wu, he should take her to avoid risks in advance. But if Xiao Wu was safe, his opportunities would be gone! Without Xiao Wu's sacrifice for the sixth ring, the quality of his subsequent spirit rings would be a level lower. Without Xiao Wu encountering danger, he wouldn't have dual Godhood. Without Xiao Wu encountering danger, he...
God King Tang San expressed his frustration, saying, "Heavens, even if you let me be reborn, you shouldn't let me be reborn with these memories!"
After struggling for a long time, Tang San finally made a decision: he could only—
He could only let Xiao Wu suffer a bit more.
His love for Xiao Wu, Tang San, was evident to heaven and earth, moving the heavens and the earth. No one could deny it. In this life, he was merely reliving the love story of San Wu. Absolutely, absolutely not knowing that Xiao Wu was about to encounter danger and still letting Xiao Wu encounter danger. Absolutely not.
Yes, I am just reliving the love story of San Wu. Thinking this, God King Tang San immediately felt a little better.
He wished he could grow up quickly and cultivate Mysterious Heaven Skill.
In Tang San's view, being reborn was merely a journey through the mortal world once again. His previous life was on "hard" difficulty, but after knowing all the plot, Tang San felt that this dungeon was on "easy" difficulty, without any hardship at all. He just needed to follow the script, and everything that should be there would be there.
Little did Tang San know what awaited him in this life's future.
