This isn't ordinary water

Looking at his own hands, Yu Tianheng's gaze grew even more determined.

"Yan Zi, wait for me!"

"I will definitely become the strongest on the Douluo Continent."

"And then, I'll ride the seven-colored cloud to marry you."

"But right now, we have no choice but to part ways!"

The weak are unworthy of love; only the strong can choose their own destiny.

Even if he couldn't reach the heights of Neuvillette and Focalors, he firmly believed that he would succeed.

"Tianheng, you're the captain, you should go up and receive the award!"

At this moment, Dugu Yan's voice sounded in Yu Tianheng's ear, bringing him back to reality.

Hearing this, Yu Tianheng couldn't help but smile wryly.

This championship, this captaincy, was it something that he, at level forty-six, deserved to enjoy?

He could ignore others' opinions, but he couldn't ignore his own heart!

A strong person doesn't need charity or pity!

"Yan Zi, this is your honor, and it's also the honor of our team."

"You should go up and receive the award!"

Yu Tianheng said with an unchanged expression. Things weren't over yet, and if Dugu Yan knew some things too early, it wouldn't be good.

Dugu Yan was stunned. She looked at Yu Tianheng carefully and subconsciously said, "Tianheng, are you hiding something from me?"

Yu Tianheng: "..."

His acting skills weren't exceptional, but they weren't that bad either!

Why did Dugu Yan still notice something?

"No, nothing at all!"

Yu Tianheng hurriedly shook his head, denying it.

"Really nothing?"

Dugu Yan asked suspiciously.

On the way to Spirit Hall, she had noticed something was off. Although Yu Tianheng seemed the same as usual, her woman's intuition told her that something was definitely wrong with him.

Seeing Dugu Yan's serious expression, Yu Tianheng opened his mouth slightly, wanting to speak but stopping.

"So there is something!"

Yu Tianheng: "..."

"Is it because my martial soul is the Water Dragon, which is stronger than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, and you're afraid our child will inherit my martial soul?"

Dugu Yan crossed her arms, her beautiful eyes glaring, brows furrowing.

She knew Yu Tianheng's family situation well.

If nothing unexpected happened, Yu Tianheng would be the next master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect was quite traditional. If a child didn't inherit the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul, they might face rejection or even abandonment.

For example, Yu Tianheng's aunt Liu Erlong had a mutated Fire Dragon martial soul, which was in no way weaker than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul!

But because of her martial soul, her father Yu Luomian couldn't get her to acknowledge her ancestry!

A child's martial soul, unless mutated, would inherit the stronger martial soul from either parent.

Wouldn't inheriting her Dugu Yan's martial soul be good?

It was a god-given martial soul!

It was the martial soul of Neuvillette's subordinate!

Neuvillette hadn't ascended yet, would he ignore it if something happened to his subordinate?

What a powerful background!

The Water Dragon martial soul was incredibly strong, invincible at the same level, and could even fight above its level!

According to her grandfather Dugu Bo, her martial soul was just a young Water Dragon; later it would become an adult Water Dragon, and even stronger...

As long as her physique met the requirements, the god-level martial soul could evolve!

What a terrifying martial soul!

As long as the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan wasn't foolish, they would be eager for Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng to have several children!

Hearing this, Yu Tianheng quickly shook his head, speaking with determination, "No, it's absolutely not because of that reason!"

"Alright, you really are hiding something from me!"

Yu Tianheng: "..."

The path he walked the most was Dugu Yan's trap!

He was indeed too straightforward, which was why he fell into her trap.

"Alright, Yan Zi, you go up and receive the award first. After you get the award, I'll talk to you, okay?"

Since it had come to this, he had to say it anyway.

Yu Tianheng could only steel himself and speak.

"Okay!"

Dugu Yan nodded, gave Yu Tianheng a deep look, and turned to walk towards the entrance of the Pope's Palace.

The moment she turned, a tear slid down her cheek and fell to the ground.

Didn't she know?

She knew everything!

Looking at the drop of water on the ground, Yu Tianheng fell into deep thought.

He glanced at Neuvillette beside him and instinctively walked over, saying, "Lord Neuvillette."

"I have something to..."

Before Yu Tianheng could finish speaking, Neuvillette pointed to the drop of water on the ground and said, "That's not ordinary water, it's salty."

Yu Tianheng: "..."

Neuvillette shook his head and continued, "I know a bit about your situation."

As a transmigrator, he naturally knew about Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan's situation.

To be honest, Yu Tianheng was somewhat irresponsible, choosing his family over his woman.

As an onlooker, Neuvillette didn't feel it was his place to judge Yu Tianheng's actions, nor would he do so.

As the saying goes, how can one achieve both perfection in the world, being true to both Buddha and the beloved?

In this timeline, Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan hadn't ended up like they did in the original timeline.

To say they had no feelings for each other was impossible.

But because of certain issues, they couldn't achieve perfection.

When the time comes, they would likely part ways again, enduring the pain of separation.

"I should help you, but I won't."

Neuvillette said without changing his expression.

Yu Tianheng opened his mouth slightly, wanting to express his gratitude.

Neuvillette continued, "But I can show you a clear path."

Hearing this, Yu Tianheng's eye twitched, feeling a bit frustrated.

Couldn't he just say it in one go?

This ambiguous feeling was really unsettling!

"Thank you, Lord Neuvillette!"

Yu Tianheng was about to kneel to show his gratitude, but a force prevented him from kneeling.

"Go find the Thunder Hell Prison Vine and absorb its spirit ring; it contains the inheritance of the Thunder God."

Neuvillette conveyed this message to Yu Tianheng through sound transmission. Since Yu Tianheng was to walk the path of becoming an elemental god, the Thunder Hell Prison Vine was indispensable for him.

Yu Tianheng was shocked, his eyes wide open. A god's inheritance?

It was actually a god's inheritance!

He swallowed hard and nodded vigorously, beginning to memorize the characteristics of the Thunder Hell Prison Vine.

Absorbing the power of thunder to increase its own age?

Such a plant was indeed peculiar.

As expected of a plant containing the Thunder God's inheritance, it was terrifying.

If he obtained its spirit ring and gained this ability, then...

Thinking of this, Yu Tianheng's eyes brightened with sudden realization!

"Don't thank me, the Thunder Hell Prison Vine needs to be found by yourself. If you are destined, you will find it."

"If not..."

"No, I will definitely obtain its spirit ring, definitely!"

"For Yan Zi, I will definitely do it!"
