Douluo Continent: The Holy Evil Emperor

"Is this your grandson?" Ye Qing looked Bei Bei up and down and asked with some curiosity.

“Yes, he is my grandson, his name is Beibei,” Moon said with a smile. “You two are about the same age, I believe you can become good friends.”

Moon lowered his head and gently patted Beibei's head, his eyes filled with affection.

Like Ye Feng, he also has a junior who gives him a headache. Moreover, he is the only successor of his lineage of the Holy Dragon of Light. Even his situation is the same as Ye Qing's: both his parents have died, and only he, the ancestor, is still alive.

Even more coincidentally, Bei Bei's parents died in the same mission as Ye Qing's parents, and they were killed by the same evil soul master, Soul Douluo.

However, after that mission, Shrek Academy lost track of that evil Soul Master Soul Douluo until recently, when Mu En found him again. According to the report from the monitoring team, that evil Soul Master Soul Douluo is currently in the territory of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

This time, Moon is prepared to take action personally.

With the cultivation level of a Limit Douluo, he went to cause trouble for a Soul Douluo evil soul master, not for justice, but only for hatred.

Looking at the somewhat withdrawn and troubled child in front of her, Ye Qing gasped softly.

Goodness, no wonder he's so cunning now that he's grown up; he's always been a quiet, reserved person since he was little.

This is not possible.

If you're too quiet and reserved, how can I build a good relationship with you, then maybe even get close to your great-grandfather and maybe even "log in and collect some gold coins"?

"Hello, my name is Ye Qing!"

Chapter 4: How about some childhood memories?

Looking at the warm smile on Ye Qing's face, Bei Bei nervously grasped Ye Qing's hand and whispered a reply.

"Hello, my name is Beibei."

Children's friendships are actually quite easy to build, especially when one of them is 'sunny, cheerful, and eloquent'. Beibei easily developed a liking for Ye Qing, and after only a few minutes of interaction, he was no longer so reserved in front of Ye Qing.

As for why...

It's quite simple. Children of this age love to play. Their curiosity about the world is at its peak. It's only when they reach the transition from adolescence to young adulthood that they gradually become more composed.

Some people become more eccentric and unreliable due to their environment, but most people become numb and their curiosity diminishes under the weight of life's hardships.

At this time, Beibei, who was only five years old, was obviously not in this category.

Or rather, like Ye Qing, he lost both his parents at a young age and had no playmates, so he had almost no resistance to new and exciting things.

Seeing that Ye Qing and Mu En had started fishing, he naturally joined them. Ye Qing was rubbing the fish feed while whispering to Bei Bei, so much so that Ye Qing didn't even know what he was saying.

In short, it boils down to two words—pretentious.

Just install it.

See, I understand this better than you. I know more than you. Aren't I amazing?

Ye Qing, whose age has returned to that of a child, seems to have rediscovered his childhood feelings in the past few years. This is also why he can't concentrate on reading. After a year of reading, every time he sits down to read, it feels like ants are crawling all over his body.

I always want to go out and have fun.

So, after enduring the torment and memorizing the basics of Douluo Continent to ensure he wasn't completely ignorant of the continent, Ye Qing began to play freely.

Old Deng never said anything to Ye Feng. In Old Deng's opinion, children should love to play. The way Ye Qing studied so seriously before only made him completely baffled.

The rambling I just talked to Beibei was basically about his experiences playing around in various places on Poseidon Island. But these things that seem boring to adults are just right for Beibei, this five-year-old kid.

'You're amazing!'

Even though Bei Bei didn't say those four words aloud, Ye Qing could already sense them from his eyes.

Strangely enough, even though he could be considered a mid-level player, Ye Qing actually felt a sense of pride when faced with the adoring gaze of such a silly kid as Bei Bei.

So weird.

He quickly realized his own mindset, coughed slightly awkwardly, and then handed the baited fishing rod to Beibei.

"Since this is your first time here, I'll let you fish today."

"But I don't know how..." Beibei hesitated after getting the fishing rod.

"It's okay, no one is born omnipotent. Just play around." Ye Qing said nonchalantly, and then began to teach in a very professional manner.

"When fishing, the first thing is to have a stable mindset and enough patience..."

……

Mu En, also holding a fishing rod, watched Ye Qing and Bei Bei getting along harmoniously, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

Watching Beibei's lifeless demeanor gradually dissipate as she spends time with Ye Qing, and the cheerful smile that a child should have on her dull face, Mu En suddenly felt very glad for his decision, glad that he had let Beibei meet such a little guy.

Ye Qing.

He was old. Although he doted on his great-grandson, the companionship of an old man was clearly different from the friendship of someone his own age. Even if Mu En possessed the cultivation of a Limit Douluo, he could not cure a person's heartache.

Beibei's heartache is loneliness.

Having lost his parents and having no friends, Beibei's heart will only become more closed off and more extreme, which is not a good thing for the Holy Dragon bloodline within him.

Those who possess a bright mind are broad-minded and magnanimous.

Negative influences such as extremism, stubbornness, pettiness, a dark heart, violence, and bloodlust are all deadly poisons for Soul Masters with the Light attribute.

(A specific dean surnamed Yan was named in the criticism)

Moon has been very concerned about Beibei's growth, hoping that he can have happy memories in his childhood so that he won't be stuck at a certain level in the future because of his childhood.

Was it considered taking advantage of Ye Qing?

Well, you could say that. After all, Moon doesn't really have any good options right now. The only playmate of the right age for Beibei is Ye Qing on the entire Seagod Island, and he's a true Shrek, someone you can completely trust.

But it's not quite accurate to define it as exploitation. It's true that Ye Qing helped Bei Bei overcome her autism, and it's also true that Ye Qing received benefits from Mu En and was indebted to him.

Putting aside the Shrek connection, it could perhaps be seen as a different kind of exchange of benefits. Both sides got what they wanted, and neither lost anything—a win-win situation.

But from an emotional point of view, Ye Qing got another advantage.

Not only did his relationship with Moon improve, but he also laid the foundation for a friendship with Beibei. The true value of childhood best friends can only be seen when you grow up. Many brothers with this kind of relationship are those who would risk their lives for each other.

There are many things that are not so clearly distinguishable.

As for how things will develop in the future...

Need I say more? This is the Douluo Continent, after all. (meaningful)

Of course, Ye Qing wasn't thinking that much about it at the moment. Since he had become younger, he had become much more playful. Now that he had Bei Bei to play with, his enthusiasm was naturally getting higher and higher.

Clearly, poor Beibei had never experienced playing around with her friends before. At first, she was a little reserved, but later she let loose and embraced the natural instincts that belong to her age.

From that day on, two more mischievous children appeared on Poseidon Island in the inner courtyard.

"How about some childhood memories?" Ye Qing said to Bei Bei.

Thus, the entire Poseidon Island, except for the Poseidon Pavilion which they never visited, was covered with their footprints.

Although the two of them were having a lot of fun, climbing trees and picking flowers in the backyard of one old man today, rooting around in the vegetable garden of another old man like wild boars tomorrow, and fishing, snail catching, and crab catching at Haishen Lake the day after tomorrow.

Even Moon had to consider whether there were any safety risks involved in having so much fun.

Overall, the old man was quite pleased to see Beibei gradually becoming more cheerful, and he even gave her more tea leaves every time Ye Qing asked him to exchange gold coins.

Having resolved Beibei's problem, Moon began planning something else.

According to the latest news, the evil Soul Master Soul Douluo has already been exposed in a city of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

Chapter 5 Tianyue City, Demon Wolf

After observing for another day and confirming that Ye Qing wouldn't take Bei Bei to do anything dangerous, Mu En left Shrek Academy alone and headed towards the Heavenly Soul Empire.

As for Ye Qing...

He's just become more playful because he's younger; he's not really a clueless kid without any sense of safety. How could he possibly go and do those dangerous things that could lead to his death?

Winning the revival match is extremely difficult; life is only given once, so cherish every moment.

But to be honest, there aren't many things to do at this age. Plus, this is Douluo Continent, where there are almost no entertainment options, and what entertainment options are mostly unrelated to mischievous kids. There are even fewer things to do.

The day after Mu En left, Ye Qing went back to being a fisherman.

Fishing is still more fun.jpg

Beibei, on the other hand, didn't do anything. He did whatever Ye Qing did, and he went fishing with Ye Qing, only he missed the boat a little bit more often.

……

the other side.

Heavenly Soul Empire, Heavenly Moon City.

Located in the south of the Heavenly Soul Empire, this city enjoys a warm and pleasant climate, with spring-like weather all year round. Most crops and fruits can thrive here, which makes Tianyue City one of the top agricultural producers in the Heavenly Soul Empire.

In terms of both quantity and quality, it is among the best in the country compared to other cities, and can be called the granary and major taxpayer of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

Key cities like this are basically key cities of the Heavenly Soul Empire. A considerable number of imperial troops are stationed around Tianyue City to protect it from attacks by other hostile forces.

Therefore, even in times of tension among the major empires, when war could break out at any moment, the people of Tianyue City were not affected by the flames of war and were always able to live and work in peace.

At most, the amount of grain handed over might be a bit too much.

Recently, this prosperous city, which has not experienced much conflict for centuries, has been visited by an uninvited guest with blood on his hands.
