*****
In the Shui Family's prison, dim corridors stretched out.
Shui Wuya and Wang Qiuer walked side by side.
Although called a prison, it was, in fact, a grand and splendid palace, with guards and servants moving about.
However, Wang Qiuer should now be called Shui Jiner, a name she had chosen for herself.
Along the way, servants and guards bowed respectfully and made way for them.
Shui Jiner was filled with curiosity. "Why are we here?"
If Shui Wuya intended to help her erase Wang Dong'er's soul, then why come to the prison?
Shui Wuya chuckled lightly, seeming to sense Shui Jiner's doubts, but he offered no explanation.
Casually, he walked up to a sealed cell.
The barriers on the door were exceptionally strong, seeming composed of countless layers of intricate and profound energies. Each layer contained vast and profound power.
These barriers resembled impregnable fortresses, firmly sealing the cell within, preventing any external intrusion or escape.
Facing such barriers, Shui Wuya appeared calm and relaxed.
With a casual gesture, as if touching a thin cloud, the barriers dissipated inexplicably beneath his fingertips.
In the next moment, powerful auras surged out.
Witnessing this scene, Shui Jiner couldn't help but feel deeply shocked.
She could sense that within this cell were not just one or two formidable beings, but many unimaginable forces hidden within.
Recalling various rumors about the Shui Family, she couldn't help but conclude that those confined here by Shui Wuya must be several top-tier experts, perhaps even some legendary mysterious entities.
Shui Jiner was filled with admiration and reverence.
Seeing Shui Wuya effortlessly dissolve the cell's barriers and walk in, Shui Jiner felt uneasy but followed reluctantly.
After all, with Shui Wuya present, what was there to fear?
Soon, they arrived at one of the cells.
Shui Wuya opened the door, revealing a forlorn figure inside.
Upon closer inspection, Shui Jiner recognized it as Wang Dong'er, whom Shui Wuya had imprisoned before.
Seeing Shui Wuya, who had confined her here, Wang Dong'er couldn't contain her fury.
Ignoring everything, she pointed angrily at Shui Wuya.
"Shui Wuya, you beast, let me out!"
Wang Dong'er roared, her voice brimming with anger and hatred.
Shui Wuya looked at her calmly, saying nothing, only reaching out and grabbing her shoulder.
Wang Dong'er suddenly felt a pang of panic, unsure of Shui Wuya's intentions.
"What are you planning to do?!" Wang Dong'er's voice trembled, sensing the overwhelming aura emanating from Shui Wuya, which filled her with a sense of dread.
However, Shui Wuya paid no heed to her questions. He simply pulled Wang Dong'er out without explaining anything.
His gaze was deep, as if he could see through everything in Wang Dong'er's heart.
Shui Wuya led Wang Dong'er to a more secluded place. Without offering any explanations, he simply watched her in silence.
Wang Dong'er felt uneasy. She didn't understand why Shui Wuya had brought her here, filled with both confusion and fear.
"What do you want? Why did you bring me here?" Wang Dong'er gritted her teeth, her voice tinged with unease and fear.
Shui Wuya looked at her calmly, his gaze revealing a hint of profound insight.
"You will know soon enough. Just don't rush," he said softly, his tone carrying an unquestionable authority.
Wang Dong'er's expression froze as she stared blankly at Shui Wuya.
She subconsciously followed Shui Wuya's request and closed her mouth, even though she didn't understand why.
As Shui Wuya approached, she felt an immense pressure, like facing a towering mountain impossible to cross.
His presence exuded a deep and steady aura, giving a sense of unwavering determination.
Shui Wuya's calm demeanor and extraordinary bearing made him appear as a solitary figure at the pinnacle of humanity.
It was an absolute control, an absolute correctness!
Although Wang Dong'er deeply resented Shui Wuya's actions, she also keenly felt the extraordinary aura emanating from the clan leader, a power that both awed and diminished her.
"Aren't you cursing anymore?"
Shui Wuya's voice was calm and indifferent, as if he could see through everything in Wang Dong'er's heart.
Only then did Wang Dong'er realize her own loss of composure. She turned her head slightly, closed her mouth, but her heart churned with tumultuous emotions.
At that moment, Shui Jiner, who had been following behind Shui Wuya all along, finally couldn't help but speak.
Her eyes flickered, trembling slightly, revealing her inner unease and curiosity.
"Clan Leader Shui, may I ask boldly why you brought me here to see Wang Dong'er?"
Her voice carried a hint of entreaty and puzzlement.
"Hehe, let me tell you a story."
Shui Wuya's gaze deepened gradually, looking at Shui Jiner with a mysterious smile.
"I'm all ears!" Shui Jiner immediately lowered her head respectfully.
Wang Dong'er also turned her attention, intrigued.
Shui Wuya looked at Wang Dong'er and Shui Jiner, raising his head slowly.
His words carried the weight of thousands of years.
"Many thousands of years ago, there was a legendary figure at the pinnacle of Douluo Continent, Tang San."
His voice, like the melodious strumming of an ancient zither, echoed through the palace.
Shui Jiner listened intently, following closely behind Shui Wuya.
"Tang San was not just a strong individual, but the incarnation of Asura God."
"Approximately seventeen years ago, when anomalies frequently appeared on Douluo Continent, the power of extraterrestrial stars suddenly shone."
"Tang San sensed this anomaly and knew it might be an unprecedented catastrophe, so he made a groundbreaking decision."
Shui Wuya's eyes revealed a hint of profoundness. "He chose to bring his daughter down to the mortal world, to subdue the extraterrestrial star."
His words seemed to transcend time, making both Shui Jiner and Wang Dong'er feel as if they had personally experienced those turbulent years.
"And you, Wang Dong'er, are the half-incarnation of that legendary daughter."
Shui Wuya's gaze turned abruptly to Wang Dong'er.
"What!?"
Hearing Shui Wuya's words, Shui Jiner's eyes widened in shock and disbelief, her gaze filled with an incredulous expression.
As a sacred beast of the Star Dou Forest, Shui Jiner had heard many legends.
But this particular legend shook her to the core, casting doubt upon her entire existence.
"This can't be."
At the same time, Wang Dong'er, upon hearing Shui Wuya's words, felt as if struck by lightning, shaking her head in disbelief.
She couldn't believe her father could be such a person, yet Shui Wuya's words were unequivocal, filling her with deep fear and unease.
