Capítulo 370: Where does God Goes
Sotou City, early morning.
Mo Mo and a group of young people were having breakfast and chatting.
"Mo Mo, you're really shameless!"
Luo Xiaobai said with a smile.
He had gone through countless hardships and finally defeated a level 47 Soul Ancestor.
You have to know, in order to win that battle, he even broke two ribs!
But what about this guy? He just "swapped" his opponent out of the arena!
Unless the opponent had flying abilities or an incredibly fast reaction speed, there was no escaping this move!
It was truly shameless! To use such a soul skill right at the beginning of the fight—how could the opponent possibly react in time?
If it were a life-and-death duel, swapping places wouldn't be a big deal, but this was a competition. Falling out of the arena meant losing.
Most soul masters don't have the ability to fly, and even if they do, they wouldn't have time to react unless they activated it right away.
This is why Mo Mo is so hated.
If he lost fair and square, no one would hate him; after all, it would just mean his skills weren't up to par.
But a soul skill like this, it's really hard to defend against.
So what if you can beat him? You still lose!
That level 49 middle-aged man with a powerful martial soul was considered by many in the audience to be the likely champion of the Soul Ancestor division.
Yet this seeded contestant was "swapped" out of the arena by a level 42 defense-type Soul Ancestor right at the start.
When he hit the ground, he was completely dumbfounded.
He hadn't even had a chance to make a move or release a single soul skill!
And he lost…
Hearing this, Mo Mo didn't care at all and said, "I didn't break any rules; it's just a perfectly reasonable use of my soul skill!"
Using the competition rules and employing his soul skill strategically—how could that be called shameless?
His grandfather, Moffett, also had this soul skill, but why didn't he use it?
Because this skill was useless against Lexius!
If you're meant to get beaten up, you'll still get beaten up.
"Besides, if I got hurt, Qing Qing would be heartbroken."
Mo Mo's lips curled into a smile, and his face was full of smugness, looking very punchable.
But Lei Qingqing, who was beside him, didn't say anything; she just blushed.
Everyone else: "..."
No kidding. Seriously, no kidding.
Among the group, aside from Neuvillette, only Mo Mo had successfully wooed Lei Qingqing.
The others, not to mention relationships, didn't even have a single target in mind.
These things would be arranged by the family when they reached the right age, so they weren't in a rush.
"Qing Qing, I just don't get it. What's so good about this guy Mo Mo that you would…"
"Xiaobai, I won't allow you to speak ill of Mo Mo!"
Luo Xiaobai: "..."
Fine, fine, fine…
He was shocked awake as if from a dying illness—turns out, the clown was me all along!
Luo Xiaobai didn't actually like Lei Qingqing; he just couldn't understand.
What had happened that made Lei Qingqing change her attitude towards Mo Mo so much?
"Qing Qing, don't be angry. Getting angry causes wrinkles."
"When you see Xiaobai, just beat him up."
Mo Mo said smugly, and after saying this, he provocatively glanced at Luo Xiaobai.
His punchable expression really made Luo Xiaobai's hot temper flare up.
"Mm, I'll do whatever you say."
Everyone else: "..."
"If you keep this up, there's no way we can keep chatting!"
Early in the morning, instead of eating breakfast, they were being force-fed dog food—who could stand this?
Just then, Neuvillette arrived late, holding Focalors' hand.
Neuvillette still had that serious expression on his face, looking as stern as ever. As for Focalors, she wore a sweet smile.
Great, great, great!
Another couple, huh?
"I can't take it anymore!"
Luo Xiaobai picked up his bowl, didn't bother to grab any food, and ran off directly.
Neuvillette and Focalors were taken aback, their eyes filled with confusion. What was going on?
Everyone else: "..."
"What's wrong with Xiaobai?"
Focalors asked, puzzled.
After a moment of silence, Oliver finally spoke up, "Before you two arrived, we were already fed a dose of dog food."
"And after you arrived, we got another dose."
"Xiaobai's just had his fill."
Neuvillette and Focalors exchanged a glance, their eyes twitching.
They hadn't even done anything, and this still counted as dog food?
How much dog food did Mo Mo and Lei Qingqing dish out earlier?
"Don't worry about him. He didn't grab any food earlier, so he'll be back soon."
Just as Ning Wen finished speaking, Luo Xiaobai, who had left with his bowl, indeed came back. He quietly sat down in his original spot, looking a bit embarrassed.
"Hehe, how can you eat without any food…"
"Let's eat, let's eat."
After everyone sat down, the real nightmare began.
"Mr. Neuvillette, try this. It's quite soft; I think you'll like it."
"Ms. Focalors, this little cake was made just an hour ago."
"Mr. Neuvillette, there's something on the corner of your mouth…"
"Ms. Focalors, there's something on your face…"
Everyone else: "???"
Can't we just eat in peace?
Mo Mo looked enviously at Neuvillette and Focalors, then turned to look at Lei Qingqing.
After the two exchanged a glance, Lei Qingqing shook her head vigorously.
Neuvillette could carry out these actions with a calm expression, without batting an eye.
But Lei Qingqing? No way!
She shot Mo Mo a look that clearly said, "Don't even think about it," and turned her head away.
You have to understand, she was known for her strength and violent tendencies. How could she behave like Focalors? Ugh, it's giving her goosebumps just thinking about it!
Mo Mo sighed, shaking his head helplessly. Since Lei Qingqing wasn't willing, he wouldn't force her.
Perhaps this was just a different expression of love.
Qingqing could fiercely protect her husband, but asking her to act all shy and cutesy—of course, she couldn't do it.
And this was exactly what he loved about Lei Qingqing.
If Lei Qingqing didn't have this personality, their relationship might not have developed the way it did today.
But it still would have been great, regardless.
After the meal, everyone gathered together. There was still an hour and a half before the competition started, so there was no rush.
"Hey, Neuvillette, I have a question."
Ning Wen, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up.
His expression was very serious, making it clear that this question was not a simple one.
Neuvillette looked at him with some confusion and asked, "What is it?"
"This question concerns the family. Please answer it, so we can be prepared."
"???"
"How much longer can you and your wife stay on the Douluo Continent?"
"I recently read an ancient text, and what it described made me deeply worried about the future of our family."
"Once, many gods were born on the Douluo Continent, but without exception, they all disappeared without a trace."
"In other words, they either went into hiding for some reason, or they ascended to another place, where gods are meant to dwell."
"Now we stand so high that losing you two could spell disaster for our family!"
