Chapter 46: What is the Golden Liquid? (Seeking subscriptions, seeking bouquets)
Qian Renxue (Private Chat): “Lord Bai Luo, are you there?”
Bai Luo (Private Chat): “There’s no need to address me as Lord. There is no hierarchy among chat group members; just call me Bai Luo.”
Qian Renxue: “Then, Brother Bai.”
Bai Luo was somewhat speechless.
However, considering that Douluo Continent itself is an unconventional feudal world, Bai Luo could understand.
Bai Luo: “Brother Bai, then let it be Brother Bai.”
Besides the initial bias towards Qian Renxue, Bai Luo was generally satisfied with her.
Therefore, when she specifically came to seek advice, Bai Luo didn’t mind offering a few pointers.
It had already been said that meeting is a matter of fate, even if the other party has flaws, it makes no difference.
Of course, Qian Renxue herself doesn’t count as an antagonist.
Her definition is as Tang San’s enemy, unrelated to justice or evil.
Qian Renxue: “I would like to ask you a few questions, I wonder what kind of price I need to pay?”
She didn’t believe in free lunches, so naturally proposed a trade request.
“No need to be so cautious.”
Bai Luo sighed helplessly: “If a group member has doubts, and if I know the answer, I generally won’t hide it.”
Bai Luo: “So, what do you want to ask?”
Qian Renxue was somewhat surprised.
However, considering Bai Luo’s strength, such a god-like existence indeed wouldn’t scheme against her.
Moreover, the group members seemed to trust Bai Luo.
From this, Bai Luo should be quite approachable.
Qian Renxue wasn’t someone who didn’t understand etiquette, she silently remembered this favor, deciding to repay it at some point in the future.
“My questions might be a bit too many.”
Qian Renxue felt a little embarrassed, worried she might disturb Bai Luo.
“It’s fine.”
Bai Luo casually said: “I’m very idle right now, having someone chat with me is a good way to pass the time.”
“…”
Qian Renxue naturally wouldn’t believe Bai Luo’s words.
How could such a powerful person have nothing to do?
Qian Renxue regarded Bai Luo’s words as his care for her, which made her feel more goodwill towards Bai Luo.
“Then, I will bother you.”
Qian Renxue: “I want to know about my future, or rather, events related to me that will happen in the future.”
“The future, indeed…”
Bai Luo wasn’t surprised that Qian Renxue wanted to know her future.
Joining the chat group and finding out she is a character in a certain story, anyone would be curious about it.
“However, where should I start?”
Bai Luo thought for a moment and said: “Let me start from the beginning.”
“The world you are in is called Douluo Continent, taken from a novel named <em>Douluo Continent</em>.”
“And your name is Qian Renxue, the daughter of the previous Pope of the Soul Hall, Qian Xunjí, and the current Pope, Bibidong.”
These belong to basic information, not important.
The following truly relates to Qian Renxue’s destined path.
“In addition, you are one of the final antagonists in the first part of <em>Douluo Continent</em>.”
“To add, the other final antagonist is your mother, Bibidong.”
Hearing this, Qian Renxue was momentarily stunned, she hadn’t fully grasped the meaning of “antagonist” yet.
What is an antagonist?
In reality, there is no such thing as protagonists and antagonists.
If there were, they should be fallen soul users.
Could it be that I eventually fall, becoming a fallen soul user?
This fleeting thought was quickly rejected by Qian Renxue: Impossible, even if I die, I will never become a fallen soul user.
So, from the perspective of the work <em>Douluo Continent</em>, I am an antagonist character?
If her world were compared to a story, the existence of protagonists and antagonists isn’t strange.
“If my mother and I are antagonists.”
Qian Renxue didn’t panic but asked calmly: “Who is the protagonist?”
“The protagonist is Tang San.”
“Tang San?”
Qian Renxue searched her mind for this name.
At this period, Qian Renxue hadn’t encountered Tang San and hadn’t heard of him either.
But the surname Tang prompted her to make associations.
“Surnamed Tang, could he be from the Hao Tian Sect?”
Thinking of this, Qian Renxue, who already had a grudge against the Hao Tian Sect for killing her father, became even more filled with murderous intent.
“Speaking of the Hao Tian Sect, that’s correct.”
Bai Luo: “Tang San’s father is Tang Hao, a person you should know, right?”
“It’s him!”
Killer of her father, how could Qian Renxue forget?
“But, why?”
Why is the protagonist from the Hao Tian Sect?
If the Hao Tian Sect represents the protagonist side, then the opposing Soul Hall naturally becomes the antagonist.
“Who decided this?”
Qian Renxue couldn’t accept such a situation.
Clearly, the Hao Tian Sect contributed nothing to Douluo Continent, merely exploiting others, while their Soul Hall had always protected the interests of commoners.
“In fact, the Hao Tian Sect being the righteous side has nothing to do with its nature, purely because of Tang San.”
Bai Luo informed Qian Renxue about Tang San’s situation, including him being a transmigrator, awakening dual Battle Spirits, and obtaining the divine positions of Sea God and Asura God in the future.
“Dual Battle Spirits, dual divine positions, this…”
Hearing this, Qian Renxue gasped in shock, realizing how formidable her future opponent would be.
“Brother Bai!”
“Don’t look at me, I generally don’t get involved in political struggles.”
Bai Luo wouldn’t assist the Soul Hall just because Qian Renxue was a group member, overthrowing Douluo Continent and destroying the Divine Realm.
Although the gods of the Douluo World seem like insignificant chickens and dogs to Bai Luo, easily crushed by his hand.
Yet the Douluo World has its own order.
Bai Luo doesn’t care about others, but he doesn’t wish to meddle.
“Of course, if you encounter danger, rest assured, I will intervene.”
Not helping is one thing, but if Qian Renxue gets bullied, Bai Luo won’t sit idly by.
Qian Renxue is a member of the chat group.
A mere native deity daring to bully his people, simply asking for death!
“Thank you.”
Qian Renxue understood the meaning behind Bai Luo’s words.
With Bai Luo’s protection, she needn’t worry about her safety.
Even if the opponent is Tang San with dual divine positions, Qian Renxue believes he wouldn’t be a match for Bai Luo.
“In fact, if you hadn’t joined the chat group, Tang San would lead two great empires and the soul users of various sects into a war against the Soul Hall in the future.”
Bai Luo: “By the way, the war was initiated by the Soul Hall.”
For the Soul Hall to initiate a war, Qian Renxue wasn’t surprised.
What puzzled her was, despite carrying out the undercover mission in Tiandou Empire, why did a war still break out?
“The main reason for failure must be due to Tang San’s efforts.”
Bai Luo: “However, it’s also because your mother didn’t want things to go too smoothly for you, demanding immediate palace coup.”
“What?”
Hearing the former part, Qian Renxue could accept it.
Protagonists having skills is normal.
But the latter reason almost infuriated Qian Renxue!
“Bang!!”
In the Douluo World, Qian Renxue swept a teacup off the table, her face turning extremely pale.
“Your Highness?”
The Porcupine Douluo standing guard outside the door hurriedly inquired.
“Nothing.”
Qian Renxue forcibly suppressed the pain in her heart: I’ve spent all these years undercover in Tiandou, yet in the end, you cared not at all!
She restrained her anger, calming down the Porcupine Douluo before resuming her conversation with Bai Luo.
Qian Renxue didn’t want to expose her vulnerable side to Bai Luo.
This was her last stand.
“After the failure of the Tiandou undercover plan, you returned to the Soul Hall and successfully passed the Angel God trial, inheriting the position of the Angel God.”
“Will I become the Angel God?”
Hearing this news, Qian Renxue finally saw a glimmer of hope.
So, it’s not all bad news, right?
Upon hearing that Tang San would inherit dual divine positions, Qian Renxue had been startled, but unexpectedly, she would become a deity in the future as well.
As for the Soul Hall initiating the war, Qian Renxue didn’t find it surprising.
She clearly understood the long-term planning of the Soul Hall, knowing that war was inevitable.
“Not only you, but also your mother, Bibidong, she will inherit the position of the Ruo Sha God, becoming the new Ruo Sha God.”
“Theoretically, with both of you as god-level combatants on the Soul Hall side, Tang San shouldn’t win, but…”
Bai Luo explained, sharing the anime plot concerning the battle between the two gods with Qian Renxue.
She hastily accepted it and began watching.
“This!!”
Soon, Qian Renxue erupted in fury: “People can come back to life after death? The Food God and the Seven-Colored Goddess personally intervene! And the Asura God and Sea God, how despicable!!”
Especially the last scene, where Bibidong sacrificed herself to save her by blocking the fatal blow from Asura Tang San, left Qian Renxue utterly heartbroken.
Qian Renxue feared neither death nor failure.
But she couldn’t bear her mother dying at the hands of Tang San.
Additionally, Qian Renxue learned the reason behind Bibidong’s hatred towards her.
“Here, take a look at this too.”
Bai Luo compiled the novel of the first part of <em>Douluo Continent</em> and sent it to Qian Renxue.
She spent some time reading through the entire novel from beginning to end.
Finally, Qian Renxue learned everything.
“Tang San! Yu Xiaogang!”
“I’ll kill you both!!!”
In the Douluo World, Qian Renxue’s eyes blazed with murderous intent towards Tang San and Yu Xiaogang, reaching its peak.
Furthermore, Qian Renxue didn’t forget the schemes of the Sea God and Asura God.
Recalling a particular description in the novel, Qian Renxue felt utterly humiliated and ashamed.
That golden liquid, and the live broadcast during the Sea God trial—thinking about these parts, Qian Renxue felt utterly mortified.
Realizing that Bai Luo had sent her the novel, Qian Renxue wished she could die.
She couldn’t imagine what kind of image she presented in Bai Luo’s eyes.
How did Bai Luo perceive her? Did he think of her as a shameless woman?
“It’s outrageous.”
Qian Renxue felt unprecedented injustice: “Why did they have to do that?”
Killing someone is one thing, why humiliate her so much?
“Let me clarify something.”
Bai Luo said: “This is just a novel. To my knowledge, the Douluo World depicted in novels, comics, and animations differ significantly.”
The Qian Renxue who joined the group, Bai Luo had confirmed, comes from the anime world.
And in the anime, these parts were heavily altered, and similar plots don’t exist.
So, regardless of whether the events in the novel haven’t happened yet, even if they were to occur in the future, Qian Renxue actually needn’t worry about them.
“Those things won’t happen to you.”
Bai Luo was willing to protect the safety of his group members, and safety isn’t limited to physical well-being; mental health needs protection too: “If the Asura God and Sea God dare to do such things, I will eliminate them immediately.”
Fair means, even devious strategies, Bai Luo could accept.
But descending to such despicable levels…
Bai Luo could only chuckle.
To quote Tang San:
Asura God, Sea God, you have chosen your own path to death!
