[Departing from Qingdi City, Tang Chuan traveled alone through the air, flying toward the direction of Saint Spirit Village.]
[When Tang Chuan returned to Saint Spirit Village, he looked down from high altitude.]
[He saw that this village still retained the appearance of his childhood, as if time had stayed back in those years.]
[Those low adobe houses, winding country paths, the familiar Blacksmith Shop, and that old locust tree at the entrance of the village.]
[Everything was so familiar.]
[However, unlike his childhood, today's Saint Spirit Village was crowded with bustling tourists everywhere.]
[Among them were gorgeously dressed nobles, civilian Spirit Masters carrying luggage, and quite a few peddlers setting up stalls by the roadside shouting to sell various souvenirs.]
[These tourists all came to pay homage to the place where Tang Chuan, this great deity, had lived in his childhood, and by the way, to rub off some Divine Qi.]
[Tang Chuan restrained his qi, quietly landing at the village entrance without alerting anyone.]
[According to the information he learned beforehand, Grandpa Old Jack and Grandma Old Jerry were still living in Saint Spirit Village nowadays.]
[In fact, back then after the entire Saint Spirit Village became prosperous, Old Jack's family had also moved out to live for a very long time, moving into a large mansion in divine soul City and living a wealthy life.]
[But as people grew older, they would become increasingly nostalgic.]
[To Old Jack, Saint Spirit Village was not only the village where he once lived, but even more a symbol of his lifelong struggle, entrusting all his past glorious years.]
[Therefore, Old Jack and Old Jerry eventually moved back, living back in that renovated old house.]
[Walking along the familiar village path, Tang Chuan walked outside the courtyard of Old Jack's house. Before even entering, he heard Old Jack's full-throated and vigorous voice coming from the courtyard.]
["You guys have no idea! Back then, that child Xiaochuan really suffered a miserable fate!"]
["To end up with such a drunkard father who got dead drunk all day long and didn't care whether the child lived or died!"]
["Pity that Xiaochuan, at such a young age he had to cut firewood and cook by himself, carry water and wash clothes, and sometimes couldn't even eat enough!"]
[Old Jack sat on the rattan chair in the courtyard, surrounded by a circle of tourists, numbering at least twenty or thirty people, all listening intently.]
[Old Jack spat as he talked, getting more and more spirited the more he spoke.]
["Yet I could already tell back then!"]
["Although this child had a hard life, deep down he exuded a stubborn drive, and he was smart, sensible, and strong!"]
["At that time, I felt that this child would definitely not be someone confined to a pond!"]
["Sure enough! With my help, Xiaochuan grew up healthily and finally even became a God!"]
["You tell me, did I save a God or not?"]
[Speaking to the end, Old Jack couldn't help asking quite smugly.]
["That's indeed true!"]
[The onlookers listened with relish, and also nodded in agreement one after another.]
[In their view, if it weren't for this Village Chief Old Jack, His Excellency the God of Life Tang Chuan would probably have been starved to death by that inhuman drunkard father when he was a child.]
[How could there still be the current Douluo Continent and their wonderful lives today?]
Black World, Heaven Dou Imperial City.
Inside Blue Tyrant Academy.
When hearing Old Jack smugly say, "You tell me, did I save a God or not?"
For a moment, the gazes of Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun couldn't help but quietly glance toward Yu Xiaogang, carrying a trace of teasing and mockery in their eyes.
Although nothing was said, these glances made Yu Xiaogang feel as if needles were pricking his back, and he couldn't help clenching his fists, his face flushing red, and his heart filled with shame and anger.
Regarding this, Yu Xiaogang also knew what the gazes from Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun meant.
This was probably mocking him in secret for saying that sentence on the battlefield in the comparison video of the Black World: "I cultivated a God!"
The comparison video was still continuing to play.
[Standing outside the courtyard wall, listening to Old Jack's exaggerated narration, Tang Chuan couldn't help slightly curling the corners of his mouth, finding it somewhat amusing.]
[Thinking of his childhood, Grandpa Old Jack also always liked to do this, calling him and other children together to tell the story of that former Spirit Saint of Saint Spirit Village.]
[Back then, listening to it for the first time was fine and felt rather interesting.]
[But after listening to it too much, it only made one's scalp tingle.]
[In a flash, so many years had passed, and the storyteller was still here.]
[Yet the listener of the story had already changed from that thin and weak youth into the protagonist inside the story.]
[Tang Chuan was filled with deep emotion in his heart, but he wasn't in a rush to go in. Instead, he leaned against the courtyard wall and patiently waited for Old Jack to finish speaking.]
[About half an hour later.]
[Only then did Old Jack somewhat reluctantly finish today's story, picked up the teacup and gulped down a few big mouthfuls, wiped the water stains from the corner of his mouth, and was just about to announce the dismissal.]
[At this moment, Tang Chuan flashed and appeared in the courtyard.]
["Grandpa Old Jack, long time no see."]
[Tang Chuan said with a smile, facing Old Jack.]
[Old Jack looked up, and when he saw the familiar face of the visitor clearly.]
[His whole person suddenly froze, the teacup in his hand almost falling to the ground. After rubbing his eyes and confirming that he hadn't misseen, his old face instantly flushed red with excitement, and he stood up from the rattan chair with a swish.]
[However, Old Jack had lived for so many years after all, and his reaction was still quite fast. Knowing that Tang Chuan's identity was special and could not be publicized, he hurriedly waved his hand at the surrounding tourists and began to drive people away.]
["Alright, alright! This old man's story is finished. I have matters to attend to today, so please everyone leave for now! Come back tomorrow, come back tomorrow!"]
[Although the tourists were full of doubts and didn't understand why Old Jack suddenly drove people away.]
[It wasn't good to overstay their welcome either, so they had no choice but to disperse in twos and threes.]
[Yet at the very moment Tang Chuan followed Old Jack into the house.]
[A young tourist suddenly stopped his footsteps, suddenly seemed to have thought of something, abruptly widened his eyes, trembled all over with excitement, and said in a trembling voice.]
["That's right! Blue-silver long hair and eyes, handsome appearance..."]
["I heard it from the nephew of the sister-in-law of the neighbor of the cousin of my second aunt's family!"]
["This is precisely the appearance of the great God of Life, Lord Tang Chuan!"]
["Just now... we actually had the fortune to see a God!"]
["Is it really His Excellency the God of Life?"]
[As soon as these words came out, the surrounding tourists instantly exploded into a commotion, turning their heads one after another to look at that already closed wooden door, each and every one of them flushed red with excitement, wishing they could rush in and take a few more looks.]
[Some people even knelt down on the spot, kowtowing a few times toward the direction of the house, praying with murmurs in their mouths.]
[Tang Chuan didn't pay attention to the commotion outside.]
[At this moment, Tang Chuan was already sitting on the wooden chair in Old Jack's house.]
[Grandma Old Jerry poured a cup of hot tea for Tang Chuan, looking at Tang Chuan, her eye sockets couldn't help turning red, saying in her mouth: "You've gotten thin, you've gotten thin", just like that kind old grandmother back then.]
[Tang Chuan picked up the teacup, gently took a sip of the hot tea, feeling that familiar tea fragrance pervade in his mouth, and a warmth welled up in his heart.]
[Putting down the teacup and looking at the two white-haired old people in front of him, Tang Chuan took a deep breath and also said with a smile.]
["Grandpa Old Jack, Grandma Old Jerry, I am about to Ascend to the God Realm."]
["Coming this time is to say goodbye to you."]
["Ah?!"]
[The smile on Old Jack's face instantly froze, his whole person stunned in place, unable to speak for a long while.]
[Although he was just an ordinary Spirit Elder, because of his relationship with Tang Chuan, Old Jack also had some understanding of the God Realm.]
[Knowing that the God Realm was the World where Divinities lived, in another World.]
[Once Tang Chuan went to the God Realm, I'm afraid they would never see each other again in this lifetime.]
[For a time, Old Jack's heart was filled with reluctance and loss. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know what would be best to say.]
[Because he also knew that Ascending to the God Realm was a huge good thing for Tang Chuan, and he shouldn't show any negative emotions to make the child worry.]
[Therefore, Old Jack took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the reluctance in his heart, gently stroked the snow-white beard under his jaw, squeezed out a smile, and laughed loudly.]
["Haha! Then congratulations to you, Xiaochuan!"]
["This is a tremendously good thing!"]
["The God who walked out of our Saint Spirit Village is going to Ascend to the God Realm! Spoken out, this old man will have glory on my face!"]
[However, even though Old Jack spoke heroically, in those turbid old eyes, glistening tears were clearly flickering.]
[Looking at Old Jack's appearance of forcibly maintaining a smile, Tang Chuan's heart was also filled with reluctance.]
[And thinking of the decision he had already made, Tang Chuan also looked seriously at Old Jack and Old Jerry, and said solemnly.]
["Grandpa Jack, as a Divinity, I can bring four people to Ascend to the God Realm, and enjoy eternal life in the God Realm from then on."]
["Would you and Grandma Old Jerry be willing to go to the God Realm with me?"]
[As soon as these words came out, Old Jack's whole person suddenly shook, widening his eyes, looking at Tang Chuan in disbelief.]
Black World, Heaven Dou Imperial City.
Blue Tyrant Academy.
"What!"
When seeing in the comparison video that before preparing to Ascend to the God Realm, Tang Chuan actually intended to bring these two ordinary old men and old women, Old Jack and Old Jerry, to the God Realm together.
Yu Xiaogang couldn't help his expression changing, instantly turning crimson-eyed, breathing like an ox, and clenching his fists.
His heart was simply going mad with jealousy.
'Has this Tang Chuan gone crazy!'
'These Old Jack and Old Jerry are merely two ordinary old man and old woman, how can he give the precious Ascension slots to these two people!'
'Wouldn't it be great to bring along a Martial Soul Theory Master like myself?'
'With my theoretical level, even if I Ascend to the God Realm, I can still help you!'
This made Yu Xiaogang clench his fists, gnash his teeth, and roar jealously in his heart.
And thinking that although he failed to guide Disciple Tang San in Cultivation.
But back at Nuoding Academy, he had also helped Disciple Tang San so much.
Yet in the comparison video of the Black World, before Ascending to the God Realm, Disciple Tang San clearly had slots to give to himself, but deliberately teased him and was unwilling to bring him along to Ascend.
Now, comparing this with Tang Chuan giving the precious Ascension slots to Old Jack and Old Jerry.
This made Yu Xiaogang simply extremely collapsed and mentally broken.
Why!
Why Little San, are you simply unwilling to bring me along to Ascend to the God Realm!
Even if I failed to guide you onto the most correct path of becoming stronger, I still helped you quite a bit!
No matter what, I am still your teacher!
Didn't you agree that once a teacher, all living beings are like a father!
What happened to agreeing to treat me like another father?
Are all these words just bullshit!
