Douluo: Twins of Fate

Chapter 345 Poseidon Arrives
The Demon Emperor glanced at Tingtao in the ruins below, then his gaze fell on Jiang Qingtong. He smiled and said, "I thought you couldn't beat him! This human is much stronger than anyone else I've ever met."

"If we can't even defeat him, how can we rebel against the gods?"

Jiang Qingtong remained calm. She turned to look at the Demon Emperor and asked, "Where are the Seven Sacred Pillars?"

After Jiang Qingtong asked the question, the Demon Emperor pointed to a pile of ruins below. Jiang Qingtong looked in the direction she was pointing and saw seven people lying in different positions among the ruins of the collapsed palace.

Several of them had completely lost their life force, while the remaining few, including Starfish Douluo, were still breathing, but their injuries were severe, and they probably wouldn't live much longer if they didn't receive timely treatment.

Seeing that Jiang Qingtong only glanced at him a few times and did not speak, the Demon Emperor said again: "There are a few who are too resilient. I will deal with them all right now!"

As she spoke, the Demon Emperor raised her hand, ready to kill Starfish Douluo and the others. Jiang Qingtong raised her hand to stop her: "No need! They are already exhausted and no longer pose a threat."

"You're so kind."

Upon hearing Jiang Qingtong's words, the Demon Emperor chuckled and said, "Is it because you pity that woman?"

She was referring to Starfish Douluo.

Jiang Qingtong's gaze swept over the Starfish Douluo, but she did not answer the Demon Emperor's question. She simply said to her calmly, "Committing more killings is not good for your cultivation. I am only thinking of you."

Upon hearing this, the Demon Emperor laughed. She said to Jiang Qingtong, "For me, no amount of killing matters! The soul beasts in the sea are a law of the jungle; either I kill them, or they kill me. As for humans, the servants of the Sea God deserve to die!"

At this point, the Demon Emperor suddenly realized something, looked at Jiang Qingtong, and asked, "Little girl, you're not going to let these hundreds of thousands of people on Seagod Island go, are you?"

Jiang Qingtong glanced at her, nodded, and said, "Of course!"

"Are you kidding me? So many people, if you let them go, they won't thank you! They'll only resent you in their hearts, and then pass that hatred on to their children and grandchildren, for thousands of years!"

The Demon Emperor surveyed the island, looking at the terrified inhabitants, his voice cold.

"The uncertainty inherent in hatred that has been passed down for thousands of years is too great, so my habit has always been to eliminate all enemies."

After the Demon Emperor finished speaking, Jiang Qingtong slowly said, "That's true for you because you've lived for a long time and faced a much harsher environment. But for me, killing more people is completely useless. If the Sea God Tang San dies, they will be useless too."

The two women were talking back and forth in the air about how to deal with Seagod Island. When they heard their voices, Sea Star Douluo and the others below were filled with grief and indignation. They tried to struggle to get up and fight again, but her bones had been broken by the Demon Emperor and she was unable to stand up again.

All she could do was scream, "Demons! You will not succeed!"

Jiang Qingtong glanced at her, her brows furrowing slightly.

Amidst the ruins, Ting Tao moved his hands and opened his eyes. Seeing this, Jiang Qingtong couldn't help but frown: "A Limit Douluo blessed by the gods is truly resilient! He's still alive?"

Although the attack she just unleashed using the Heavenly Golden Sacred Sun Mirror was not as powerful as the one driven by Jiang Shengyu's Void Devouring Flame and Pure Lotus Demon Flame, it was still far beyond the endurance of a Limit Douluo!
Tingtao survived that blow; he's truly an unkillable cockroach!
"let me!"

The Demon Emperor raised his hand to deliver a fatal blow to Tingtao, but Jiang Qingtong suddenly thought of something and stopped him, saying, "No! Don't kill him, he's still useful."

"Useful?" Upon hearing this, the Demon Emperor frowned and looked at Ting Tao, wondering what use he could possibly be in his half-dead state.

Tingtao was struggling to crawl towards the main hall of the Sea God Temple when Jiang Qingtong descended from the sky and blocked his path. She looked down at Tingtao, who was lying on the ground. The Sea God Douluo had fallen to the mortal realm and was completely devoid of his former grandeur.

Before Jiang Qingtong could speak, Tingtao said to her, "No matter what you try to do, you will never succeed!"

"How can you be so sure?" Jiang Qingtong asked with a smile.

Tingtao's face was pale, and he sneered, "Because we have the protection of the Sea God!"

After Tingtao finished speaking, he used all his strength to throw a blue beam of light towards the main hall of the Sea God Temple. The light disappeared into the ruins!

Tingtao, however, seemed to have lost all strength, and his hands fell limply to his sides.

Jiang Qingtong turned to look at the blue light flying away, her expression calm. She twirled her Ice-Fire Dragon Spear.

The blue light merged into the sea god statue buried in the ruins, and in an instant, the statue opened its eyes! The rock-carved figure had come to life!

The entire Poseidon Island began to tremble violently, and azure beams of light shot up from the ground. In the blue light, Tang San, with his azure hair flowing, held a golden trident and looked down at Jiang Qingtong and the Demon Emperor.

An immense pressure descended from the sky, sweeping the Demon Emperor from the heavens to the ground almost instantly. And it wasn't a gentle landing; it was a heavy slam!

The immense force propelled her deep into the ground, creating a deep crater.

Jiang Qingtong looked up at Tang San, who was enveloped in blue light, her gaze profound. She could tell that the Tang San before her was not his true form, but merely his divine consciousness attached to the statue of the Sea God!
However, the power that the statue can bear is limited, and Tang San can only use a very small portion of it. Otherwise, the statue would collapse first! Mortal objects can never withstand divine radiance.

Therefore, the aura he exuded was far from enough to make Jiang Qingtong despair.

The reason why the Demon Emperor was unable to resist and was knocked down from the sky was simply because the Sea Soul Beast was inherently unable to resist the power of the Sea God.

"Jiang Qingtong, we've finally met."

Tang San looked at Jiang Qingtong, his voice calm.

Jiang Qingtong wasn't in a hurry. She chuckled softly and said slowly, "I thought our meeting would be during the final battle, but I didn't expect to meet you here ahead of time, Sea God Tang San."

"Abandon your evil ways and submit to me. I will forgive everything you and your brother have done in the past." Tang San looked at Jiang Qingtong, his first thought still being to recruit her.

With Jiang Qingtong and Jiang Shengyu joining the fray, all the sacrifices made before would have been worthwhile. Their potential is immense, so great that Tang San could easily disregard the past!
"Even after ten thousand years of godhood, your thinking is still so naive!"

Jiang Qingtong looked at Tang San with undisguised disdain. She said, "Do you think there's any possibility of us talking now, given the current situation? Answer me, Tang San!"
