"Are you saying my father used me?" Wang Dong'er's eyebrows furrowed, and a cold smile played on her lips.
"Haha! Shui Wuya, no matter what you say, I won't believe you! My father would never do such a thing! You're just trying to sow discord."
Wang Dong'er's voice was filled with anger and disdain.
However, Shui Wuya's gaze remained steady as he looked at Wang Dong'er.
Calm and composed, his demeanor exuded confidence.
His tone carried an unshakable conviction, and his eyes held a mysterious and profound air, as if he had already seen through everything.
He had expected Wang Dong'er's doubts and mistrust, and was unfazed.
Thus, Shui Wuya calmly said, "Believe it or not, you are not Tang San's daughter. You're merely a part of a split soul."
"You and the other half of the soul will both fall for Huo Yuhao, and only then will you merge back into one."
Shui Wuya's voice was calm and powerful, as cold and clear as ice, yet as unyielding as steel.
It was as if his words were ironclad facts!
"What?"
Upon hearing Shui Wuya's words, Shui Jiner seemed to realize something and was suddenly enlightened.
Her eyes sparkled with excitement and surprise, as if she had uncovered a great mystery.
"Chief Shui, you said that Wang Qiu'er and Wang Dong'er are the soul forms of Shura God Tang San's daughter, and Tang San deceived his own daughter to descend to conquer the alien star. If that's the case, then that alien star must be…"
Shui Wuya nodded, "Yes, that so-called alien star is Huo Yuhao."
"It really is."
Hearing this, Shui Jiner's shock surged once more.
Although it was hard to believe, Shui Wuya's explanation made the extraordinary seem reasonable, as if everything was unexpectedly fitting together.
Why do Wang Qiu'er and Wang Dong'er both like Huo Yuhao? Why does Shui Wuya want to kill Huo Yuhao? All of this, to the world, seemed predestined, yet there was an underlying connection all along.
"Ah!"
Shui Jiner was not only shocked but felt as if struck by lightning.
What amazed her wasn't just the story.
The question was, how did Shui Wuya know this story!?
In her understanding, even as an auspicious beast, she couldn't grasp such heavenly secrets.
Just how powerful was Shui Wuya to comprehend matters of the divine realm!?
Moreover, knowing about the divine realm was one thing.
Where did he get the audacity to meddle in the plans of the Shura God!?
Defying fate, utterly defying fate!
As these questions flooded Shui Jiner's mind one after another, she grew increasingly shocked.
She couldn't help but feel chills and her scalp tingle.
At this moment, her admiration for Shui Wuya vanished.
It was replaced by deep fear and awe!
"Impossible!"
Wang Dong'er found it hard to believe her father would use her and was nearly collapsing.
"I came down of my own will! I wasn't deceived by my father! Shui Wuya, you're talking nonsense!"
"Don't even think about deceiving me. I'm not that foolish!"
Wang Dong'er's eyes were filled with agitation and resentment as she spoke.
She had eavesdropped on her father's conversation and decided to go to Douluo World herself. It had nothing to do with her father.
Shui Wuya's eyes glinted with mockery.
"You're not that foolish, but you're even more foolish than I thought."
He sneered, "Do you think you can fool the Divine King by eavesdropping?"
"Do you really think your father, the Shura God, with his immense power, wouldn't notice his daughter eavesdropping on him?"
"You think you came down to the mortal world out of a playful whim, but that's just your wishful thinking."
Shui Wuya's words were sharp and piercing, cutting straight to the heart.
Upon hearing Shui Wuya's well-reasoned argument, Wang Dong'er's expression changed dramatically.
This, this...
Right.
Her father, Tang San, was the mighty Shura God, the King of the Divine Realm.
Even though she was his daughter, the gap in their power was as vast as heaven and earth.
Her father could perceive the workings of countless worlds simultaneously with a single thought.
How could he not know she was eavesdropping on him?
Could it be that her father had indeed deceived her into descending to achieve his own goals?
Was it really as Shui Wuya said?
Her so-called wishful thinking was actually her father's manipulation?
Wang Dong'er's heart wavered.
Yet, she still couldn't believe the truth was as Shui Wuya described.
Almost instinctively, she began to question Shui Wuya, her face full of defiance, "Shui Wuya, what do you know about my family matters? Even if my father knew I was eavesdropping, what does that prove..."
"Wait, something's not right!"
Suddenly, Wang Dong'er realized something was off.
"How do you know all this!?"
She hadn't told anyone about this!
Shui Wuya smiled, his eyes revealing a hint of amusement, "I know far more than you think."
His voice was gentle yet mocking, as if ridiculing Wang Dong'er's naivety and innocence.
Shui Wuya laughed as he twisted the knife, "Not to mention your eavesdropping.
You should know that the seal between the Divine Realm and Douluo Continent is an extremely powerful barrier, one that even ordinary gods cannot breach."
"But when you descended, the barrier was so weak that you could pass through it easily. Doesn't that strike you as strange?"
"This..."
Wang Dong'er's body shrank, her pupils dilating in shock.
Of course she knew.
After all, that barrier protected the Divine Realm, not some child's plaything.
When she descended out of curiosity, she had passed through the barrier effortlessly.
At the time, she was so excited about her newfound freedom that she didn't give it much thought.
But now, Shui Wuya's pointed remarks made her realize the terrifying implications.
After all, who could control the barrier's strength to let her pass so easily?
"I..."
Wang Dong'er felt as if she were in a dream.
She could hardly believe that her father had been manipulating her all along.
Her heart filled with despair and helplessness.
"No, no... impossible, impossible..."
Instantly, her tears fell like rain, her pitiful and sorrowful appearance evoking pity.
"Sigh!"
Shui Jiner hadn't expected that the woman before her would also be merely a pawn. Compassion rose in her heart.
However, her most pressing task now was to remove the split soul within her body.
So, she immediately sought Shui Wuya's assistance.
"Chief Shui, I hope you can use your divine powers to extract the split soul of Wang Qiu'er from my body."
Shui Wuya quietly examined Shui Jiner's body, his expression deep and eyes glimmering with a mysterious light.
He slowly spoke, "Extraction is possible, but the split soul within you has been rooted for a long time. Forcibly removing it could result in death."
"What!?"
Shui Jiner's heart sank. She had believed that someone as powerful as Shui Wuya could surely solve her problem.
But reality left her feeling disappointed and desperate.
If even Shui Wuya couldn't help her, who else could?
Without hesitation, Shui Jiner knelt down, prostrating herself before Shui Wuya.
Shui Jiner spoke with difficulty, "Chief Shui, I know my request is difficult, but I have no other option.
The split soul within me has caused too much trouble. I need release."
"I beg you, please help me. I am willing to serve you, no matter the cost!"
Her voice was filled with deep bitterness and helplessness.
