Chapter 3042: Chapter 3040: Heavenly Emperor, you pigeon, you actually scammed the distant future me!
“The more pieces I break into, the happier I am,” Cheng Goudan said.
Father Goudan was taken aback, “Are you courting death?”
“Are you getting fierce with me, Father Goudan?” Cheng Goudan retorted without hesitation—she had decided that until Father Goudan changed her dao name back, she wouldn’t give him any good looks.
Ever since her dao name was changed to ‘Cheng Goudan’ by Father Goudan, she felt that her once somewhat charismatic self as the Jade Lake Empress had wildly sprinted towards becoming a ‘dog’.
A person is often influenced by their name, but conversely, a name can also subtly influence a person.
How could she date anyone if she wasn’t charming?
“I’m not being fierce with you, but are you sure you don’t want to reinforce a bit?” Father Goudan said softly.
He now seemed so gentle it was unbecoming of a ruler of the Netherworld—back when the Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon was around, Father Goudan’s style was cold and silent.
But after the Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon was gone, Father Goudan seemed to have inherited a part of the Striped Dragon’s whimsical character.
With that said, Father Goudan stretched out his hand to temporarily release Cheng Lin from the eggshell.
Next, Cheng Goudan was to be reborn as Dark Song, so she couldn’t be kept inside the egg any longer.
However, Father Goudan did not put away the eggshell.
When Cheng Lin really did break into pieces later, this eggshell could be used to collect Cheng Lin’s fragments.
“If you change my dao name back, I might also consider not shattering so thoroughly,” Cheng Goudan said, seizing the opportunity to propose her condition after being released.
Upon hearing this, Father Goudan fell into meditation.
After a long time.
Father Goudan gritted his teeth and said, “Then forget it… Anyway, you’re not my only daughter now. If you break, you break!”
Cheng Goudan was stunned, “???”
Did Father Goudan find out about ‘Fairy Lychee,’ my concocted ‘little sister’?
But on the other side, Father Goudan was smiling and looking at Heavenly Emperor Da Da Zi.
She was also a large assembly of ‘Ghost God Cheng Lin’s’ fragments.
Moreover, the Heavenly Emperor’s Son had perfectly removed the parts of the liquefied metal ball’s ‘experimental Heavenly Emperor’ that were originally integrated into her fragments. So in a sense, she was just like Cheng Lin.
Following Father Goudan’s gaze, Cheng Goudan saw the Heavenly Emperor’s Son, “…”
At that moment, she had tens of thousands of alpacas she wanted to give to Father Goudan.
“Heavenly Emperor, if Cheng Goudan shatters into pieces, do you want to change your name to Heavenly Goudan?” Father Goudan asked, looking affectionately at the Heavenly Emperor’s Son.
The Heavenly Emperor’s Son was completely baffled “!!!”
Why am I suddenly being shot while lying down?
I don’t even want to be the Heavenly Emperor anymore; why would I agree to become Heavenly Goudan?
So she tactfully declined, “I think Mister Song really suits the Goudan name, Da.”
“He’s already Song Goudan,” Father Goudan said with disdain. “And besides, he’s not a daughter.”
After contemplating for a moment, the Heavenly Emperor’s Son wisely responded, “But Mister Song can find a fairy, have a daughter, and even have several, Da!”
“Makes sense,” Father Goudan nodded, “If it’s the daughter of Song Goudan… then she could be called Song Dandan?”
Upon hearing this, Cheng Goudan on the other side nearly rolled her eyes, “!!!”
Heavenly Emperor, you treacherous pigeon, are you actually setting me up remotely?
You have to know, within Song Shuhang’s plan list, there’s one called ‘Plan for Three Years Later’.
After three years, the troubles of the myriad practitioners in the universe should be mostly resolved, and Song Shuhang will also be of the age to marry and have children.
By then, Cheng Lin could retire in peace, step out of the ‘deader than dead’ state, and then, using a method similar to ‘reincarnation’, she could create triplets for Song Shuhang.
If she were to carry out this plan, she might become Song Goudan’s daughter, a legitimate daughter through the proper procedures.
So, isn’t the suggestion of the Heavenly Emperor’s Son just a trap for her future self?
The ‘Three-Year Plan’ of Cheng Lin and Song Wood was not just spoken in jest; it was a plan that truly needed to be in place.
And this plan wasn’t just about dealing with Song Wood’s relationship either.
Firstly, the portion of the ghost spirit fragment that originally belonged to ‘Song Wood’ inside her current body [Ghost God Cheng Lin Song One] had a slight hidden danger—after Song Wood’s ‘Plan A’ to collapse the Heavenly Emperor’s path failed and his path exploded, Cheng Lin gathered all his fragments.
However, during the Heavenly City’s Plan A process, Song Wood forcibly absorbed a small portion of the ‘Heavenly Emperor’s Son Fragment’. After the failure of Plan A and the explosion of Song Wood’s path, this fragment carried the risk of mutation and the potential for explosion.
Secondly, the former ‘Ghost God Cheng Lin’ was a single entity, but since splitting up, different personalities have emerged from the fragmentation. These individual personalities, having developed over a long time, now possess distinct characters.
Merging some unconscious small fragments is fine, but merging the larger fragments with independent personalities could lead to conflicts in personality.
During their time in Heavenly City, the fusion of Cheng Lin and Song Wood was an emergency measure… Now, for the sake of safety, it’s better to remain separated.
To achieve a perfect separation plus resolving the hidden danger, reincarnation is a good solution.
By then, Song Shuhang’s own natural child + Cheng Lin + Song Wood would make the perfect set of triplets.
——As for her current ‘safe and sound fragmentation’, it’s to separate her fragments from Song Wood’s as much as possible after breaking apart, laying the groundwork for the plan three years later.
What’s better is that after reincarnation, she could openly rid herself of the despised dao name ‘Cheng Goudan’ and choose a name she likes.
And now.
This plan hasn’t even started, and the future is still uncertain about whether it can be implemented… Yet the Heavenly Emperor’s Son has already dug a pit for her in advance.
By then, is she supposed to change from Cheng Goudan to Song Dandan?
She might as well not change at all!
Or, she could let Song Wood reincarnate when the time comes, and she could find another method.
“Daoist Senior, is it about time?” At this point, Song Shuhang’s voice rang out.
At this moment, the fat ball, which had been continuously swallowing ‘existence’, was so weak it could hardly move.
As it estimated, it was left with only about one-tenth of its ‘existence’.
Nine-tenths of the ‘existence’ had been transferred into Dark Song by Tyrannical Song using the Confucian Saint Talent.
“It is about time,” Daozi nodded in satisfaction.
Then, his will slashed at the body of the fat ball, cutting off the nine-tenths of its body that had lost ‘existence’.
The soulless body, later on, he would authenticate with the Heavenly Dao Authority, add some materials, and condense it again, and it would be able to come out from the Netherworld Realm, just like Ruler of the Netherworld White’s thigh.
At the same time, Cheng Goudan descended beside Dark Song.
Dark Song, having accepted a large quantity of ‘existence’ from the fat ball in one breath, emitted a foul aura all over.
“Are you ready?” Cheng Goudan asked.
Dark Song nodded.
“Then, welcome to your new life, Dark Song.” Fairy Cheng Lin’s figure transformed.
In Song Shuhang’s core world, a set of immortal clothing flew out, landing on Cheng Lin’s body.
It was the Jade Lake Empress Suit she had left in the Jade Lake Realm, which the virtuous lamia had been keeping safe ever since.
The phoenix robe and the Emperor Crown adorned Cheng Lin.
Fairy Cheng Lin’s charisma +1000
Additionally, accompanying the phoenix robe and Emperor Crown’s descent was the virtuous lamia.
