Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 504 Tang San: I don't want to let Xiao Wu and Xiao Ao down, but I want to live even more...

"To quell external aggression, one must first pacify internal strife?" Ji Dong and Lie Yan exchanged a glance, both completely bewildered, not understanding what Rong Nianbing was talking about.

Isn't this a famous quote from a certain transport captain? How does Rong Nianbing know it too? Ji Dong wondered.

"It means that a powerful force like our divine realm cannot be fatally defeated by a powerful external threat alone. Even a centipede with a hundred legs will not die easily; there must be internal troubles first before we can be completely defeated!"

Rong Nianbing repeated Xu Tianxi's words that he found deeply convincing, saying, "To be more specific, it's that guy, the Asura God. He has repeatedly acted wickedly, and the emergence of the Golden Dragon King may very well have been partly due to him. If it weren't for the chaos caused by the Golden Dragon King, would the God Realm be afraid of a small Crimson Plane?"

“That’s right, that’s right, that’s exactly the point…” Ji Dong’s blazing flames were quickly convinced. If the God Realm were still at its peak, with the two God Kings who destroyed life in charge, what would a Crimson Mother be?
The God of Destruction could single-handedly break through, and he would even be happy that the Crimson Mother gave him equipment, as super artifacts with the attribute of destruction are rare.

However, the situation is now extremely bad. The two strongest god-kings have to go into seclusion to heal their injuries. Many first-level gods, including several of the seven original sin gods, are also in seclusion to heal their injuries. Not to mention the second-level and third-level gods, they are absolutely suffering heavy losses.

And someone has to be responsible for all of this, and after looking around, only the sealed Tang San is suitable.

“If the Asura God really does more extreme things, the God Realm Committee will not stop your actions, but we are sorry that we cannot leave this place and cannot provide you with any help,” Ji Dong said, clutching his bloodied chest.

"That's enough. We're only here to let you know. Now we just need to wait for the right opportunity." Rong Nianbing smiled, then added:

"The one in the lower realm will be getting married soon. Would you be interested in attending and making an appearance?"

"Marriage? That's a wonderful thing, we must go and see." Lie Yan agreed, of course, going to see meant sending out his divine sense, his real body was not allowed to leave.

Unbeknownst to them, Rong Nianbing's thoughts differed from theirs: "Using clones to descend to the mortal realm all the time is not enough. This time, I'll use my true form to have some fun."

"There are a few of the Seven Deadly Sins who are too ugly. Should we send them to take a look?"

……

In the forbidden land of gods, the Asura God's chanting was clear and bright, as if he had revealed the truth of many universal laws, and it subsided after a long time.

"Thank you for your guidance, God-King Shura. I take my leave now." "Thank you, God-King Shura..."

Several second-level gods rose to take their leave, expressing their gratitude to Tang San.

"It's nothing, nothing to worry about," Tang San smiled gently, displaying his extraordinary demeanor.

In that instant, he felt as if he had returned to the etiquette academy of his youth, where he was learning hypocritical yet truly useful etiquette alongside many noble children.

The so-called etiquette is an excellent tool for disguise. This is his understanding of etiquette, which has even surpassed that of the aunt who taught him etiquette.

"Rongrong, Zhuqing, please see these true gods off for me."

Tang San called out to the two girls who were listening to the lesson, putting on an extremely respectable show. This greatly moved the several second-level gods, who began to doubt the truth of some of the rumors.

A god-king with such a humble personality, who even had his own sister give them gifts, would probably not do the terrible things that are rumored to exist, right?
Little did they know that once their figures had completely disappeared, Tang San's expression turned cold, and his eyes revealed an impatient weariness.

If he hadn't fallen into poverty, why would he have shown such favor and courtesy to these second-level gods whom he used to look down upon?
Even if several people combined, it's uncertain whether they could defeat a level one god. Their greatest use would be as a mouthpiece for him, spreading his good name.

As for their energy, Tang San was not greedy; he only absorbed the immortal spiritual energy that overflowed from their breath.

He knew he had to be extremely careful in this matter and that he had to learn to be patient. Only by waiting patiently enough could he make some big fish lower their guard, such as someone like Rong Nianbing.

Having failed to win him over through scheming, Tang San decided to stop wasting his time and instead go all the way. He believed that as long as he could swallow Rong Nianbing, his injuries would be mostly healed.

However, there is still a problem before that: his divine power is sealed. Without removing the seal, it is almost impossible for him to launch a sneak attack and take down a master like Rong Nianbing.

He came up with a solution, but Xiao Wu was too badly injured to help him.

"Third Brother, how are you? It's a pity that no first-level gods have come to listen. Your profound insights into cultivation are only heard by some second-level and third-level gods." Ning Rongrong returned, feeling indignant on Tang San's behalf.

"Yes." Zhu Zhuqing said few words, but her cold face conveyed the same attitude.

"There's no other way, this is the only way." Tang San smiled bitterly and said, "After all, I'm a criminal, and many people have to avoid me. Besides, many first-level gods were injured in the battle with the Golden Dragon King, and they're probably all in seclusion to heal their wounds now."

“That’s true. Half of the first-level gods in the God Realm are in seclusion.” Ning Rongrong nodded.

“But Zhou Weiqing is a sentimental person; he’s been visiting you, Third Brother, quite often lately,” Zhu Zhuqing said.

Upon hearing this, Tang San outwardly praised Zhou Weiqing for his sentimentality, but inwardly he sneered.

He scoffed inwardly, "Heh, what sentimentality? It's just that I gave him a chance to inherit the Asura God's position, and he regrets not taking it from me back then. He's just a stupid and useless piece of trash."

When Zhou Weiqing was mentioned, Zhou Weiqing arrived.

Not long after, Zhou Weiqing, who came to the Forbidden Land of Gods every day to dispel his loneliness, arrived, bringing with him the latest news from the outside world.

"What? The Evil God King was severely injured by the ruler of a mysterious plane in the universe and is currently unable to manage the affairs of the God Realm?" Tang San exclaimed in surprise.

“Yes.” Zhou Weiqing nodded with a sour expression, sighing for Ji Dong. His face quickly brightened, and he delivered some “good news”:
"The good news is that the Sea God in the Douluo Continent, your descendant, is extraordinary. We all know what his godhood is. After inheriting the Water God's godhood, he surpassed his master and perfected it into the God King's position. Now, he is also cultivating at an incredibly fast speed in the lower realm, making rapid progress in just five years!"

Tang San's forehead veins throbbed; he really wanted to slap Zhou Weiqing: ...

You bastard, couldn't you have chosen some other news to tell us? Is this good news? This is absolutely terrible news!
Others may not know how he obtained his position as the God-King, but do you think I don't? He's a thief who stole my position as the Sea God!

Zhou Weiqing, completely oblivious, laughed heartily, "Even better news! In the past few years, several new gods have emerged in your homeland, the Douluo Plane, Sea God, each with remarkable potential. It's said that even the God of Emotions chose a successor there. And guess what? The successor of the God of Emotions is in love with that Water God King! Hahahaha, how wonderful..."

Tang San's face was taut, while Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong beside him turned pale. What good news was this? It was clearly the worst news imaginable; that person had knocked down their statues in the mortal realm!

"Also, the God of Emotions has persuaded the Water God King to take action to avenge the Evil God King. However, the Water God King believes that further development is still needed. He wants to cultivate to the highest level of the God King realm in the lower realm, raise his combat power to its strongest, and then go to the universe to conquer the Crimson Plane."

"Don't be fooled by the fact that a hundred years in the mortal realm is only a hundred days in the divine realm. That means in at most three months, you, Asura God, will be able to meet your junior. Aren't you happy?"

"puff!"

Tang San couldn't take it anymore. Suddenly, he let out a strange cry and spat out divine blood, which splattered onto Zhou Weiqing's face.

Zhou Weiqing was shocked to see this and hurriedly asked with concern, "Asura God, how are you? Are your injuries still not stable?"

If you bastard shut up, I'll really be fine.

Tang San really wanted to slap Zhou Weiqing, that annoying guy, away, but reason told him he absolutely couldn't do it; he couldn't bear the consequences...

He was consumed by rage and could hardly bear it! He was furious; when had Tang San ever suffered such humiliation? What a complete idiot teammate!
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing supported Tang San on either side. Ning Rongrong said with a hint of disgust, "God of Destruction, Third Brother needs to rest for a while. Please leave first, okay?" "Oh, okay, God of Destruction, you need to rest. I won't stay."

Zhou Weiqing thought he was being very thoughtful by intercepting a large handful of immortal energy as a gift to bid farewell to Tang San.

As Zhou Weiqing left, some eyes that had been secretly watching the area also withdrew.

"The Asura God is so badly injured, it seems he didn't do anything to those True Gods who came to listen to the lecture?" the Water God asked uncertainly.

"It must be, otherwise he wouldn't be injured like this. Look at all that divine blood spurting out, it pains even me." The God of Fire stroked his chin, his eyelids twitching.

Divine blood is different from mortal blood. Tang San spat out a large mouthful, which didn't seem like he was faking it, and there was no flaw in his performance.

Inside the Forbidden Land of Gods, Tang San pressed his chest, his face pale, and said, "This time, spitting out some of the stagnant blood from my old wounds means that all that divine blood wasn't wasted."

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing helped him loosen his body one after the other, saying with concern, "Third Brother, that guy will be up here in three months at most, and then we..."

"Let things take their course, there's nothing to be afraid of." Tang San smiled and shook his head, but a sense of unease rose in his heart; his recovery plan needed to be accelerated.

But... where is he going to find his child's umbilical cord blood now? Xiaoqi's wasn't preserved at all.

Looking at Xiao Wu, who was sleeping and recovering from her injuries inside the room, Tang San felt a deep sorrow in his heart. Xiao Wu was in no condition to conceive a child.

unless……

Tang San's gaze fell on his two beloved younger sisters who had always been by his side. A look of hesitation flashed across his eyes. What should he do?
This would be unfair to Xiao Wu, and also somewhat unfair to Dai Mubai, who died tragically, and Oscar, who is bedridden. Moreover, it is inherently difficult for gods to conceive offspring.

Zhu Zhuqing said urgently, "But Third Brother, if we are at their mercy, we cannot just sit and wait to die. That person is unwilling to even negotiate, which clearly shows that he has made up his mind to do something ruthless."

Ning Rongrong nodded repeatedly.

Zhu Qing is right, we can't just sit here and wait to die...

Thinking it over, Tang San weighed the pros and cons, his eyes shifted, and he sighed, "But what can I do now? My divine power is sealed. I do know a way to break the seal, but that method is impossible."

"What method?" the two women asked in unison.

Tang San said in a low voice, "Using the umbilical cord blood of my descendants is impossible, as you've all seen Xiao Wu's condition..."

The two women looked inside and saw Xiao Wu lying quietly like a sleeping beauty. Back then, the Golden Dragon King had not shown any mercy. If it weren't for the power of the Asura God and the gods blocking her way, and Tang San protecting her with his life, Xiao Wu would have already been destroyed.

The atmosphere grew somber. After a moment, the two women exchanged a glance and whispered, "If Third Brother needs us, we can..."

"No, no way! This is absolutely unacceptable. I'd be letting Xiao Wu down, and you'd all be letting Mu Bai and Xiao Ao down too. This is absolutely unacceptable!" Tang San refused resolutely.

“But Third Brother, we need to look forward. What’s the point of all that if we can’t even survive right now?” Ning Rongrong said.

Zhu Zhuqing's voice was low: "Yes, Third Brother, we..."

After a moment, Tang San sighed deeply, his eyes showing a look of struggle before finally giving in. He said in a low voice, "But you know, the Goddess of Life controls the Tree of Life in the God Realm. If a true god conceives a descendant, she can sense it. And Mu Bai and Xiao Ao..."

Zhu Zhuqing's expression darkened, and she glanced at Ning Rongrong.

“Then I’ll do it, Third Brother. Although Xiao Ao is seriously injured, he hasn’t died yet, has he?” Ning Rongrong said.

Upon hearing this, Tang San sighed and said, "For the sake of survival, we can only apologize to Xiao Wu and Xiao Ao. I hope they..."

I don't want to let you down, but I want to live even more. You will never know about this.

"Don't worry, Third Brother, as long as you and I don't tell, how would they know?" Ning Rongrong pounced on him before she could finish speaking.

Zhu Zhuqing quietly closed the door to Xiao Wu's room and used her divine power to cast a restriction. Then, she leisurely observed Ning Rongrong, who was quietly taking off her clothes and embracing Tang San. Her eyes flickered.

In this situation, who really wronged whom? She didn't know.

With a soft moan, the battle began.

……

On Douluo Star, with the auspicious date of the Emperor's wedding set and invitations sent out, all sides of the Douluo Continent were abuzz, and even overseas, there was a commotion as people came to attend the wedding.

Upon receiving the invitations, all parties took it very seriously and prepared gifts with great care, determined not to be outdone by any rivals at this time. The Emperor was the undisputed number one powerhouse on the continent, and even the brides were peerless true gods, so no slights could be tolerated.

There is no greater example of a single sect possessing multiple deities. They all believed that the cultivation levels of the emperor's wives were entirely due to his own efforts, and that these women possessed unfathomable powers.

"Hahaha, it's done, it's done! I, Xiao Hongchen, have finally become a god! Meng, you wait for your brother, your family won't let you be bullied!"

In the Demon Forest, the hometown of the Evil Emperor, Xiao Hongchen emerged from the ground like a groundhog, his body surging with golden divine power. The three-legged golden toad divine shadow appeared behind him, several thousand feet tall. One, two, three, four, five, a total of five golden divine rings appeared behind him, and a tenth golden soul ring suddenly appeared under his feet.

Ignoring his own image, Xiao Hongchen stood with his hands on his hips, laughing loudly, and gave the middle finger to the heavenly tribulation brewing in the sky: "I'll let you chop me three times first."

"Boom boom boom!"

Three bolts of divine lightning struck in succession, and Xiao Hongchen was instantly turned into black charcoal and collapsed to the ground.

"Oh no, I forgot that Lao Xu said that along with the upgrade of Douluo Star, the tribulation lightning in the Douluo Plane will also become stronger. Lao Xu, save me! Xiao Xiao is still waiting for me at home..."

"Boom boom boom..."

The Douluo Continent ignored it and only focused on the lightning tribulation, wanting to teach this disrespectful fellow a lesson.

You can't even cut Xu Tianxi, and you can't even cut you? You're too arrogant!

A moment later, two stunning figures arrived and rescued Xiao Hongchen, who looked as if he had been pulled out of a coal mine, his silver hair automatically dyed black.

"Hey Lao Xiao, how did you end up in this mess?"

Xu Tianxi shook his head and chuckled, then introduced Rong Nianbing, who was standing to the side, to him:
"Let me introduce you. This is the number one chef in the God Realm, Lord Rong Nianbing, the God of Emotions. His strength is extraordinary and his culinary skills are the best in the universe. He will soon serve as the head chef for the grand wedding celebration."
