143: A Holy King and a Giant Baby: A Battleground for the Child! [Thank you everyone for your gifts and positive reviews!]
"Your son?!"
Tai Yue was stunned. He sized Su Jue up and down, then looked at Ao Yuan.
"Bullshit!"
"He's a human, how could he possibly be your son?!"
"He clearly looks more like me! Look at that vigor of his, it's exactly the same as when I was young!"
As he spoke, Tai Yue's massive finger reached toward Su Jue again.
"No way! I've taken a liking to this kid!"
"From today on, he is my son!"
"?!" Ao Yuan exploded on the spot when he heard that!
"Get lost!"
"He is my son! Try and snatch him if you dare?!"
"Why wouldn't I dare to snatch him?"
The Earth Titan Tai Yue glared, and that Saint King aura, as heavy as an abyss, pressed unceremoniously toward Ao Yuan.
"This little brat is born with divine strength and extraordinary bones. At a glance, he's a peerless genius for practicing my Titan Clan's 'Eternal Indestructible Body'!"
"What can he learn by following a loach like you? Learn how to spit?"
"You're the loach!"
Ao Yuan was instantly triggered, his dragon scales standing on end.
"My son possesses the Chaos Dragon Body and is destined to control all laws of the universe in the future! What the hell can he learn from a stone lump like you who only knows how to sleep!"
"When I blew up a neutron star with one punch back in the day, you were still playing with mud!" Tai Yue refused to be outdone.
"When I swallowed a black hole in one gulp, you weren't even a stone yet!" Ao Yuan didn't yield an inch.
"I f*cking ****** you!"
"Right back at you!"
The two Saint Kings began to hurl insults at each other in the starry sky as if no one else were around.
The words they spat out were more childish and more ridiculous than the last.
That massive Saint King pressure constantly collided in the starry sky, stirring up ripples of laws that ground the surrounding asteroid belts into powder.
Below them, the Dragon God Guard legion was collectively dumbfounded.
Is this... the legendary battle of Saint Kings?
Why is it so different from what we imagined?
Ao Shang and Ao Ning were also dazed; they felt that their perception of their Father Emperor had been completely overturned today.
Elizabeth, on the other hand, tilted her head with a look of pure disdain.
"Two idiots."
Only Su Jue, standing on that mountain of treasures, looked up at the two gargantuan beings arguing incessantly in the sky, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
On one hand, he felt speechless.
On the other hand, he felt an unprecedented warmth.
Once upon a time, he was just an orphan struggling to survive in a space-time wormhole.
And now.
There were two supreme existences standing at the pinnacle of the universe, arguing until they were red in the face over the question of 'who is his father'.
This feeling... wasn't half bad.
"No!"
Ao Yuan seemed tired of arguing and directly started acting like a rogue.
"Regardless, I found him first! He is my son!"
"I don't care! I want to be his father too!" Tai Yue also began to throw a tantrum.
"Scram! He can only have one father!"
"Then two! Let him call you Father Emperor and call me Father!"
"In your dreams!"
Seeing that the two Saint (Giant) Kings (Infants) were about to fight again.
"Enough."
A cold voice interrupted their argument.
It was Elizabeth.
She had appeared between them at some point.
Her holy dragon body emitted a soft yet majestic light, which actually caused the two irritable Saint Kings to temporarily calm down.
"How many billions of years have you two lived in total?"
"Aren't you ashamed to be arguing here like three-year-olds over a child?"
Elizabeth's voice was full of contempt.
Ao Yuan and Tai Yue glanced at each other, both seeing a hint of embarrassment in the other's eyes.
"Ahem..." Ao Yuan coughed dryly. "He's the one who provoked me first."
"You're clearly the one who called me a stone lump first!" Tai Yue retorted.
"Shut up!"
Elizabeth gave a cold shout.
The two Saint Kings actually shut their mouths at the same time.
Su Jue watched from below, completely amazed.
My cheap old lady is truly impressive.
Elizabeth glanced at them coldly, then turned her gaze toward Su Jue below.
"Let him choose for himself regarding this matter."
"Whomever he is willing to follow, he shall follow."
Hearing this, Ao Yuan and Tai Yue's gazes both snapped toward Su Jue.
Their two gazes were like two great mountains, pressing down until Su Jue almost couldn't breathe.
Ao Yuan's gaze said: Son, hurry and choose me! Choose me and I'll take you to live the high life; the entire universe will be yours!
Tai Yue's gaze said: My good son, come to me! I'll teach you the toughest techniques and let you punch out a Saint King with every strike!
Su Jue: "..."
Suddenly! Tai Yue's eyes darted around as if he had thought of something.
He spoke again, but this time, his voice carried a hint of fawning.
"Cough, Sister-in-law... Sister-in-law is right!"
He actually changed his address and called Elizabeth "Sister-in-law" directly.
Elizabeth's brow furrowed, but she didn't refute him.
"Since this brat was found by Little Black Dragon first, then as an elder, it wouldn't be right for me to snatch him."
Tai Yue said with a "magnanimous" expression.
"However!"
He changed the subject.
"If I can't be his father, being an uncle should be fine, right?!"
Tai Yue looked at Ao Yuan and Elizabeth expectantly.
"Uncle?"
Ao Yuan was stunned for a moment.
This suggestion... seemed... acceptable?
"No," Elizabeth refused coldly.
"Why?!" Tai Yue grew anxious.
Elizabeth glanced at him and said indifferently, "Because you are ugly."
Tai Yue: "..."
He felt as if his heart of the titan had been ruthlessly stabbed.
"I... I'm ugly?"
On the face of the Earth Titan Tai Yue, which was composed of plateaus and mountain ranges, a hurt expression actually appeared.
He looked down at his own grand body constructed of rock and earth, then looked up at Elizabeth's holy and elegant Moonlight Dragon body.
Alright.
It seemed... there was indeed a bit of a gap.
"Cough!"
Ao Yuan couldn't bear to watch any longer and stepped in to smooth things over.
"Fine, fine, it's just an uncle. If he wants to be one, let him be one."
"Anyway, having an extra Saint King as an enforcer means there's someone to help when going out to fight in the future."
He muttered in a low voice.
Elizabeth snorted coldly, which served as a tacit agreement.
"Yay!"
Tai Yue was as happy as a child, his massive body jumping once in the starry sky.
Boom!
An unlucky uninhabited planet was directly shaken into cosmic dust by this single jump.
"Hahahaha!"
"I have a nephew now!"
Tai Yue excitedly rubbed his massive palms, then turned his gaze toward Su Jue again.
That gaze was even more fervent and more affectionate than before.
"My good nephew!"
"Quick! Say 'uncle' for me to hear!"
Looking at this "old prankster" whose style had suddenly shifted, Su Jue felt somewhat between laughter and tears.
However, having an extra Saint King as an uncle didn't seem like a bad thing.
And so, he called out in a childish voice, "Uncle Tai Yue."
"Eh! Good! Good! Good!"
Tai Yue said "good" three times in a row, his smile so wide his mouth almost reached his ears.
