Yun Ming's eyes flashed with contempt as he heard Le Zhengen's indifferent words,"It's really stupid. If you join us, you might have a chance to become gods. If you follow Tang San, do you think he will give you a chance to become gods?"
Yun Ming snorted coldly and replied with disdain, "If joining you means having a chance to become a god, why are you still stuck at Limit Douluo? Don't you think I don't know the reason why there are no gods on the mainland? You can't fool me with your lies."
He didn't believe for a second that Anping and Gu Yuena, who claimed to have the blood of the Golden Dragon King, could offer him the opportunity to become a god. He thought that they might have some potential, but he doubted that they could share it with anyone else.
Besides, he was confident that he was the closest to the god level among all the people in the world. He had a secret that only he and Chen Xinjie knew: the main obstacle to becoming a god was the suppression of the Douluo Star rules. If he could overcome that, he was sure he could ascend to the divine realm.
Le Zhengen didn't seem angry at Yun Ming's scornful attitude. He smiled and said, "I don't know why you are so stubborn. Isn't it obvious that the suppression comes from Douluo Star?"
Yun Ming was slightly startled by Le Zhengen's words. He had expected him to have some speculations, but he didn't think he would hit the nail on the head so casually. How did he know the truth that he had discovered after years of research and experimentation?
But he quickly realized that this was not a crucial piece of information. And AnPing knew this before so he must have told them. He shook his head slightly and said, "Since you all know that it's because of Douluo Star's suppression, you are treating me as a fool if you still tell me that joining you has a chance to become a god. Are you done?"
He paused for a moment, then asked with a hint of uncertainty, "You don't mean to say that you have a way to leave Douluo Planet, do you? As far as I know, the Federation's aerospace technology is not advanced enough for that, right?"
Le Zhengen looked at Anping and saw him nod slightly. He said, "Yun Ming, you are so stupid and you still don't admit it. You have been in the Floating City for so long and you haven't noticed anything different here?"
Yun Ming frowned and tried to sense his surroundings. He had been too focused on his own cultivation and research to pay attention to the environment. He realized that something was off. He felt that his mental power and soul power were suppressed, but he didn't know why. More importantly, he didn't feel the familiar pressure of the realm from Douluo Star. He was shocked and said in disbelief, "Although the height here is relatively high, it is still within the range of Douluo Star. How can this be? There is no more suppression!"
He couldn't believe that this was a matter of height. He had attempted to fly into the sky many times to break through the barrier, but he had always failed. Even if he went higher, he would still be under the influence of Douluo Star.
He guessed that the only way to escape the suppression was to leave Douluo Star completely. But that was impossible for a titled Douluo. He would die without the support of Douluo Planet. He had never dared to try that.
Le Zhengen smiled proudly and said, "You have finally noticed it. There is no suppression of the realm by Douluo Star here. Now do you still dare to say that we have no possibility of becoming gods?"
Yun Ming was not in the mood to argue with Le Zhengen. He could see the evidence with his own eyes. But he still had some questions that he wanted to ask Anping, who was master of the Floating City. He looked at him with an intense gaze and said, "Little friend Anping, can you tell me why?"
For Yun Ming, becoming a god was more than a dream. It was an obsession. He had devoted his life to cultivating his soul power and creating his own godhood. He had reached the peak of Limit Douluo, but he knew that the next step was beyond his reach. He needed a miracle.
Before AnPing gave him a chance but due to Shrek reasons he didn't accept that but now he left Shrek maybe with some conditions he is willing to try.
He wondered how Anping had managed to escape the suppression of Douluo Star, the planet that governed the fate of all living beings. He had felt the difference as soon as he entered the Floating City. It was like a breath of fresh air, a surge of vitality. He sensed that the answer lay in the towering bell tower that stood at the center of the city, radiating a mysterious aura.
Anping seemed to read his mind. He said, "The reason is simple. This place is no longer under the control of Douluo Star. Without its control, there is no suppression."
Yun Ming did not doubt his words. He had experienced it himself. But he did not ask how Anping had achieved this feat. He felt that it was a secret that Anping would not reveal easily. Perhaps it had something to do with the Universe Will that AnPing talked about.
Yali was not satisfied with Anping's answer. She wanted to know more. She frowned and said, "I don't care how you freed this place from Douluo Star. I want to know why Douluo Star suppresses Limit Douluo and prevents them from becoming gods."
Anping smiled slightly and said, "That is not a secret. The reason why I was able to liberate this place is because I received the help of the Universe Will. As for why Douluo Star suppresses Limit Douluo, are you sure you want to know?"
He looked at them with a playful expression, as if he was hiding a big surprise. Gu Yuena rolled her eyes at him. She knew him too well. She said, "Don't play games with them. Just tell them the truth. Or better yet, make them join us first. Then they will see for themselves."
Anping and Gu Yuena exchanged a glance, as if they had a tacit understanding. Yali felt annoyed. She didn't understand why they were so casual about the Universe Will, but so secretive about Douluo Star. Wasn't the Universe Will more important?
Although he gave hint before but that was not complete.
Yun Ming thought for a moment. He was tempted by their offer. He wanted to know the truth. He wanted to become a god. But he also had a responsibility. He couldn't abandon Shrek Academy, his home and family. He said, "If you promise not to harm Shrek Academy, Yali and I will join you."
He couldn't forget Shrek Academy, even though it had changed a lot. It was now protected by Tang San's divine consciousness, but Yun Ming knew that it was only a fragment of his soul, not his full power. He doubted that it could stop Anping and Gu Yuena, who claimed to have the blood of the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King, the most powerful beings in the world.
Anping didn't say anything. He left the decision to Le Zhengen, who was furious. He said, "How dare you make such a condition? We never attacked Shrek Academy. It was you who were looking for Anping and Gu Yuena everywhere. You brought this upon yourselves."
Yun Ming and Yali felt a pang of guilt. Le Zhengen was right. They had been hunting for Anping and Gu Yuena, hoping to capture them and use their blood to create more god-level soul masters. They had never considered their feelings or their rights. They had treated them as tools, not as people.
They hesitated, not sure what to do. Leng Yaozhu saw their indecision and said, "Brother Ming, Yali, trust me. The answer to this question will shock you. You won't regret joining us. You will see a new world, a new possibility."
Leng Yaozhu wanted to support Anping's proposal and persuade Yun Ming and Yali to join them. She didn't see anything wrong with what she said. She believed that once they learned the truth, they would have no regrets.
She knew Yun Ming and Yali well. They were both exceptional soul masters, but they had different personalities. Yun Ming was proud and ambitious, always striving for the highest level. Yali was beautiful and graceful, always attracting admiration and envy. But they would both be shocked and angry when they found out that Tang San's parents had been deliberately holding back the soul masters of Douluo Star. They would never agree with their plan again.
