“Ding, detecting that the host’s complaint value has reached the requirement, activating the Super Sign-in System.”
Suddenly, a wave of information surged into Qian ChongLing’s mind. After being stunned for a while, he didn’t doubt that he might be experiencing a hallucination. After all, as a transmigrator, having a golden finger was an essential protagonist trait!
“Oh, system, what’s your function?” Qian ChongLing fantasized, thinking of starting with a Pangu Axe[1], or perhaps a Chaos Bell[2]. If not those, a Three God Level Martial Soul would also be good. If all else fails, even a fierce Emperor could be an acceptable bodyguard.[3]
Or perhaps start as a god and later become a Creator God. Survive for a thousand or two thousand years, and then make a brilliant appearance when the Sea God and Asura fuse at the Battle of Jialing Pass against the Rakshasa Angel!
Then, with a nonchalant smirk towards Tang San, he said, “Just a worthless spear, a broken sword. Based on you, do you dare to harm my descendants?”
He extended his massive hand, transforming it into a sky-obscuring giant claw. In an instant, a rain of blood fell from the sky, obscuring the sun and moon. The world shattered, mountains crumbled, rivers reversed, and the heavens and earth mourned together.
The sky-obscuring giant claw seemed to pierce through time and space, directly grabbing the Sea God and Asura fused entity. No matter how it resisted, it was futile. It couldn’t break free from the giant claw’s grasp. Amidst an endless sense of despair and fear, the entity was crushed by the giant claw.
Finally, standing with hands behind his back, facing away from all living beings, he said calmly, “Sea God and Asura fused entity, not bad!”
His mind was full of invincibility, achievements, and thoughts of suppressing eternity. Qian ChongLing wiped his mouth secretly, full of anticipation.
“Respected host, the current system loading progress is 5.5%. I am temporarily unable to answer the host’s question,” the system replied.
“Well, how long will it take to load completely?” Qian ChongLing was even more excited now. According to his thinking, the longer the system loaded, the stronger it would become. Starting as a Creator God shouldn’t be a problem.
“It will take approximately 15 years,” the system said.
“Alright, I understand. We’ll talk about it later then,” Qian ChongLing nodded, feeling immensely satisfied. Tsk tsk, fifteen years of loading, no escaping the role of a Creator God at the start.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, fifteen years later.
In the Hall of the Pope within the Spirit Hall, a young man with a slender and extraordinary figure, handsome appearance, and dignified demeanor, dressed in white battle armor, displayed a disdainful expression. He faced a middle-aged man in front of him, whose physique was robust and imposing.
“Younger brother, you’re already eighteen. Why haven’t you married and given our Qian Family descendants? Remember, our Qian Family lineage passes through one male heir. In our generation alone, there are only two male offspring! It’s urgent to uphold the glory of our divine ancestors,” the nearly hundred-year-old Qian ChongGuang, full of vitality, lectured Qian ChongLing.
“You know, older brother, I’m not unaware that you only got married when you were in your eighties,” Qian ChongLing hinted.
“Cough, precisely because I got married at such an advanced age, our father specifically instructed me when he was alive to make sure you marry and establish yourself early.”
“Your older brother has already arranged it for you. Feng Family’s eldest daughter, Feng Yu Yan, and the second daughter, Feng Yu Shi. They’re both fifteen years old and as beautiful as flowers. I believe you’ll surely like them,” Qian ChongGuang smiled.
Due to the influence of martial souls on the Douluo Continent, physical development occurs quite early. Tang San was already 1.7 meters tall by the age of twelve, which means around twelve years old is considered adulthood.
Hearing this, Qian ChongLing couldn’t help but complain silently. Fifteen years old, in Blue Star, they would still be minors. Are they trying to make the police chief invite them for coffee?
“Older brother, I’m not that kind of superficial person. How could I give up true love just for a pair of blooming flowers?” Qian ChongLing said with utmost sincerity.
“As for love, we’ll talk about it later. You can get married first and then take your time to find your true love,” Qian ChongGuang said.
“Older brother, you just don’t understand. Love cannot be compromised. You see, ‘Freedom and love, both are precious and noble; but if for love’s sake, they can both be abandoned.’ [4],” Qian ChongLing said as he tweaked a bit from Blue Star’s ‘Freedom and Love’ to convince Qian ChongGuang.
“Freedom and love, both are precious and noble; but if for love’s sake, they can both be abandoned. It sounds quite reasonable,” Qian ChongGuang muttered a few times. Indeed, it flowed smoothly, although he felt something was off, he couldn’t quite put his finger on it.
“Wait, don’t change the subject. Since I’ve brought up the topic today, you can’t escape marrying. Well, today’s the day to have this conversation,” he realized that he was being entangled by this young man again.
“Alright, alright, older brother, I got it. I’ll go practice for now.”
Qian ChongLing grinned and didn’t want to engage with his older brother any further.
Tonight, the system would be activated. This young master was about to become a Creator God and marry to uphold the glory of divine ancestors? No need to uphold the glory of divine ancestors, Qian ChongLing would surpass them!
Watching Qian ChongLing walk away, Qian ChongGuang sighed helplessly. He thought, “This kid really doesn’t make things easy. Practicing, huh?”
“Do you think I’ll believe you? A six-winged archangel with a god-level martial soul, innate soul power at the twelfth rank, enjoying the best resources across the continent, and you’re only a fifty-eight level Spirit King? You say you’re practicing? Don’t kid around, my friend.”
As the night fell, a silver moon hung high, and the silver moonlight gently flowed over the Spirit Hall City, draping it in a silver veil.
A figure dressed in a black tight-fitting suit with a mask, obviously male from his physique, leaped lightly across the various buildings of the Spirit Hall City. He moved like a lithe black cat, his figure continuously flickering. In an instant, he was out of the Spirit Hall City.
Outside the Spirit Hall City, the black-clad individual removed his mask, revealing himself to be Qian ChongLing. He softly murmured, “After midnight, I’ll become a Creator God! Beauties of the continent, here I come!”
Q
ian ChongLing’s figure flickered and reappeared in a distant location. However, he hadn’t realized that two other individuals had witnessed everything.
“Truly worthy descendants of our Qian family. The way you’re eloping is exactly like what I did back in the day! Isn’t that right, Afu?” A hint of amusement curved Qian ChongGuang’s lips as he wore an expression of pride for his younger brother.
Although the Qian family had few descendants due to their tradition of single inheritance, many other families were willing to become vassals of the Qian family. Wang Fu, also known as Afu, was a member of such a family.
Growing up together, Afu and Qian ChongGuang shared a close bond. Therefore, Qian ChongGuang placed great trust in him, often calling him Afu.
Afu couldn’t help but roll his eyes internally, thinking, “What’s there to be proud of?”
“How about the Second Young Master’s marriage?” Afu suppressed his urge to comment and replied seriously to Qian ChongGuang.
“The Feng family’s sisters are only fifteen years old. Waiting for another year or two won’t make a difference,” Qian ChongGuang said casually.
“Additionally, should we follow the usual practice and discreetly send a Titled Douluo to protect the Second Young Master?” Afu inquired.
“Naturally,” Qian ChongGuang affirmed.
“Then I’ll make the arrangements,” Afu said.
After speaking, Afu’s figure gradually disappeared as he went to organize matters for Qian ChongLing’s excursion.

[2]- Chaos Bell- Innate treasure born in chaos.
[3]- If all else fails, even a fierce Emperor could be an acceptable bodyguard- means that when all other options have been exhausted or failed, even someone powerful or intimidating like a fierce Emperor could be considered as a suitable candidate to act as a bodyguard. It emphasizes the idea that when faced with limited choices or difficult circumstances, one might have to settle for unconventional solutions.
[4]- Freedom and love, both are precious and noble; but if for love’s sake, they can both be abandoned-means that while both freedom and love are highly valued and honorable aspects of life, there might be situations where someone is willing to give up both freedom and love for the sake of their love for someone else. It suggests that deep and selfless love can lead people to make sacrifices they wouldn’t otherwise consider.
