Douluo Continent: Reborn as Yuhao, they all have ulterior motives.

Chapter 338 Tang San Explodes

Do you have a lover?

"No……"

Perhaps because he was too tense, or perhaps because the events were unexpected, Tang San subconsciously lied.

However, he regretted it as soon as he finished speaking.

The owner of the voice seemed to sense the guilt in his tone, and his originally emotionless voice suddenly turned cold.

"If you lie, you will be punished with a lash."

As the words fell, a golden light emerged from the void and struck Tang San heavily.

Snapped!

Almost instantly, the golden light easily tore through Tang San's clothes on his back, leaving a gruesome, bloody gash that looked shocking.

"ah--!!!"

Tang San screamed in agony, his whole body convulsing violently as he writhed and rolled on the ground in agony.

Physical pain is nothing compared to the golden light, which, in addition to harming the body, also has the effect of striking the soul.

Although the golden and silver light had brought Tang San back to his senses, it had not fully healed his injuries, leaving him in a state of extreme weakness. He was utterly powerless to resist this whip.

Do you have a lover?

From the silence, the voice rang out again: "Answer the questions. If you fail to answer more than three times or lie... you die."

Tang San lay sprawled on the ground, panting heavily, his eyes flashing with venomous resentment.

Recalling everything that happened after his rebirth, the last glimmer of hope in his heart vanished, replaced by an unprecedented madness that surged into his mind.

No wonder Da Ming and Er Ming treated him so roughly after he arrived at the Haotian Sect. It turns out that the suffering he had endured during this time was all arranged by Tang San from the God Realm!

What kind of bullshit sect entry assessment is that? Isn't that a method I already knew by heart from my past life?!

The thought that he had replaced Huo Yuhao as the object of Tang San's attention in the God Realm, and that Da Ming and Er Ming were even eager to help him deal with him, made him want to curse loudly.

They were just two beasts who relied on their relationship with him to ascend to the realm of gods, yet they dared to do such a thing to him.

He had previously felt sorry for Erming's death, but now he thought it was too good for that guy to die at Huo Yuhao's hands.

If he falls into his hands, he'll torture him thoroughly, making Erming experience a fate worse than death.

And Tang San from the God Realm is also a fool.

I thought that although the other party wasn't as smart as me, he should still possess some wisdom and strategy far beyond that of ordinary people. Coupled with his God King realm cultivation and the advantage of controlling the Douluo plane, even if he didn't fight Huo Yuhao to a standstill, he could at least cause this kid a lot of trouble.

The results of it?

Huo Yuhao, whose first spirit ring is a million years old, with a bunch of super ferocious beasts lining up to become his spirit rings, you don't pay attention to him, but instead come to pay attention to me, who is quietly developing. Are you blind?!

What kind of brain could make such a decision?!

How dare you claim the title of God of Wisdom? You're utterly disgracing Tang San!

Of course, the most important one is the one standing with Tang San from the God Realm.

He even refused Huo Yuhao's proposed exchange in order not to reveal the other party's identity, and this is how the guy repays him!

Ungrateful and treacherous, aiding and abetting evil, and helping Tang San of the God Realm to humiliate him, he too has a way to die!

If he had known, he should have told Huo Yuhao about this guy's identity directly. If he had obtained the Heart of Qiluo, he could have immediately resolved the neurotoxin of the Human-Faced Demon Spider, and he wouldn't have been so passive when facing the Grim Reaper. Why would he have had to suffer so much?

Of course, he dared not say these words aloud.

Judging from the current situation, Tang San from the God Realm seems to only regard himself as a rising star with the same destiny as Huo Yuhao, and has not recognized his true identity.

In other words, as long as I continue to pretend and wait for the crucial moment to unleash my true colors, I have a real chance to escape from this guy...

Snapped!

Another golden light struck him.

This time, the golden light was even more terrifying. Amidst the painful howls, it left a deep, bone-revealing wound on Tang San's back.

"Do you have a lover? This is your last chance. If you don't answer truthfully... you die."

Answer truthfully?

How could he possibly answer truthfully?

If I were to reveal the answer like that, I'd probably die a violent death the next second, wouldn't I?

But if you lie to the other person's face, your own fate won't be much better...

Tang San's mind raced. Stimulated by the pain and overwhelmed by the fear of death, he finally came up with a way to break the deadlock.

He gritted his teeth and uttered a single word in a trembling voice.

"……have."

"Who is it?"

"...Xiao Wu."

"...?"

The surroundings fell silent instantly.

Above the golden sun and silver moon hanging high in the sky, a man and a woman trembled. After confirming that Tang San did not seem to be lying, they both fell silent.

Although they had a vague idea that Tang San's answer might be rather strange when they saw his stammering, they never expected it to be so bizarre.

For some inexplicable reason, an indescribable sense of absurdity quickly took hold of their minds. For a moment, they even doubted that they were hallucinating.

Isn't this a bit... too outrageous?

What did they ask?

Is this guy in love with Xiao Wu?

Do you even know what you're saying?!

The two of them naturally refused to believe Tang San's nonsense.

But considering his attitude towards the female disciples who flirted with him during his years at the Haotian Sect, he was quite dismissive.

The blue-haired man suddenly felt that although this matter was a bit outrageous, it didn't seem to be completely without warning.

The problem is, this kid couldn't possibly have met Xiao Wu before!

It's impossible that someone would see a statue at the entrance of Shrek Academy and immediately become lustful, right?

After a brief silence, the woman seemed to finally come to her senses. She awkwardly turned her head to look at the blue-haired man who looked like he had been struck by lightning, frozen in place, and somewhat at a loss.

"Third Brother, what do we do now?"

What should I do?

A sharp glint flashed in the blue-haired man's eyes.

Xiao Wu is his Achilles' heel; how could he allow anyone else to covet her?

Whatever the reason, when this guy said those words, he had already decided to die!

Although he still needs to use this guy as a hostage to fight against the Douluo plane and the Silver Dragon King, and cannot directly take action, he can still take this opportunity to torture him properly.

Taking a deep breath, the blue-haired man tried to make his voice sound as calm as possible.

"It's alright, keep asking."

"Ha! I didn't expect you to be so magnanimous, Third Brother."

"I thought you'd be tempted to beat this guy to death, and I was thinking of how to cover for you."

Unaware of the subtle change in the blue-haired man's expression, the woman seemed to have thought of something and continued with a playful laugh, "It's really amazing, you have the same name, the same martial spirit, and even the same person you like. I almost thought we were going to have two Third Brothers, hahaha..."

The blue-haired man smiled noncommittally: "I can't speak for other things, but when it comes to my love for Xiao Wu, I have unparalleled confidence."

"Tsk tsk tsk, Xiao Wu isn't here, you should save those mushy words for when she's around..."

The long silence did not make Tang San feel uneasy; on the contrary, it gradually filled him with confidence.

He knew he had made the right bet.

Faced with the question just now, neither remaining silent nor lying is a good choice; only by telling the truth can one have a chance to survive.

After all, judging from the situation in his previous life, Tang San of the God Realm was in dire need of help to fight against the God of Destruction. Since his goal was to train him to be a subordinate, he would naturally not risk his life for the answer to a question.

On the contrary, if he lies about such things, it is very likely that Tang San of the God Realm will think that he is difficult to control and will become more vigilant.

This could actually put you in a dangerous situation.

And now, the fact that the other party has not yet taken action precisely confirms his point of view.

Since he didn't make a move in the first place, he's safe!

Just as Tang San's heart was beginning to settle, that emotionless voice rang out again.

"Why do you like Xiao Wu? If you don't answer after three times, the punishment is death."

coming!

Tang San's heart skipped a beat, and he struggled to get up from the ground, delivering the explanation he had prepared beforehand.

"I admire the story of Tang San and Xiao Wu going through hardships together, as recorded in the history of Shrek Academy. I envy their sincere feelings of being willing to give their lives for each other when they encounter danger. At the same time, I have always hoped that I could have a partner like Xiao Wu who is willing to give their life for their loved one, just like my ancestor."

"If I were fortunate enough to have such a partner, I would protect them with my life, just like my ancestor Tang San!"

Hearing those resounding and moving words, the woman looked at the blue-haired man beside her with amusement.

"Look at them, even their affectionate and devoted manners are cut from the same mold. Third Brother, Xiao Ao and Boss Dai always say that you are pure and innocent. Now you've met your match."

"Such devotion does not disgrace my name."

The blue-haired man smiled, feeling a slight sense of relief.

It turned out that after hearing his story with Xiao Wu, she longed for their sincere love.

He even started to think that this kid really wanted his Xiao Wu...

However, just as he said, he may be spared the death penalty, but he can't escape punishment. This kid has to be taught a lesson!

"You are willing to give everything for your partner, which is truly admirable. However, your thoughts are disrespectful to married women and violate worldly ethics. You will be punished with fifty lashes before you can pass the first test."

"?"

Tang San's smile froze. Before he could react, long whips formed from golden light roared from the air and lashed out at him in a frenzy.

Snapped!

"ah--!!!"

The mournful howls echoed continuously from the platform. Unlike the previous two lashes, this time the whipping did not harm Tang San's body, but instead affected his soul.

Correspondingly, the unbearable pain became increasingly intense.

Fueled by the blue-haired man's resentment, each lash of the whip was extremely vicious, as if it wanted to rip his soul apart.

After fifty lashes, Tang San lay on the ground, barely breathing, his body convulsing uncontrollably, unable to even catch his breath.

"Was this too harsh?"

Looking at Tang San's miserable state, the woman couldn't help but pout, giving the blue-haired man beside her a reproachful look: "You didn't hear that the other person likes Xiao Wu, so you're secretly taking revenge, did you?"

"No rainbow without rain. I'm just testing him."

The blue-haired man said calmly, "If he can't even endure this much hardship, he's not worthy of being my successor. How can I entrust the God Realm to him?"

"It's all just talk..."

The woman snorted coldly, but didn't stop him: "Remember to clean up after you're done. Don't make this place dirty, or I'll tell Xiaowu!"

"Ahem, don't worry... could you reply to him for me first?"

"The first round of sincerity is over, the second round of adventure begins."

As the cold voice rang out again, a beam of emerald light descended from the sky and landed on Tang San.

Amidst the swirling light, a rich life force flowed into Tang San's body through the wounds inflicted by the whip, and the two bloody wounds began to heal at a visible speed.

Along with it, the hidden injuries accumulated in his body due to the exploding rings also recovered.

In just a few breaths, he recovered from his severe injuries to his peak condition.

However, Tang San showed no joy on his face, remaining solemn and vigilant as he surveyed his surroundings.

Although he didn't know what awaited him next, Tang San knew very well that those two guys in the sky wouldn't be so kind.

As he expected, a roulette wheel with ten slots soon appeared in the center of the platform. Judging from the pattern on the surface of the slots, it was the same one he had used in his previous life to make Xu Sanshi and Bei Bei French kiss.

As the prank he used to play on others in his past life was about to fall on his own head, Tang San felt a chill run down his spine for no apparent reason.

Thanks to the fact that he was the only participant present, this so-called second round of testing skipped the part of choosing the unlucky one and the roulette wheel spun.

"After the wheel stops, the square in front of you will be your task. If you complete it, you will advance to the third round. If you fail, you will enter the deep adventure. Be warned, the death rate in the deep adventure is over 80%."

As the words fell, the rapidly spinning wheel slowly came to a stop, and what finally stopped in front of Tang San was a simple pattern formed by two crossed longswords.

"The mission involves a one-on-one battle; defeating your opponent will allow you to pass the test."

"opponent?"

Tang San paused for a moment, then looked around in confusion.

But there's no other opponent who can fight him.

The next second, countless particles of light appeared out of thin air, condensing into a blue-gold phantom not far from him.

Tang San was stunned. Before he could react, the blurry figure revealed a gentle smile that resembled that of a god or Buddha.

"Are you ready?"

Without giving him any time to react, the blue-gold phantom flashed in front of Tang San and delivered a light palm strike.

It was as if they were firmly fixed in place by an invisible force.

The vast difference in cultivation level made Tang San's hair stand on end, but his limbs felt like they were filled with lead, making it impossible for him to dodge. He could only watch helplessly as the palm struck his chest.

Immediately afterwards, everything went black before Tang San's eyes.

Amidst the excruciating pain, he was sent flying like a cannonball, spinning 7,200 degrees in the air before finally crashing to the ground in freefall.

Then, with a loud "whoosh," he began vomiting large mouthfuls of blood mixed with shattered internal organs.

But before he could even spit out two mouthfuls, Tang San's body began to convulse and spasm uncontrollably.

The force contained in that palm strike was evenly distributed to every corner of his body, and finally exploded with a bang.

Amidst a series of crackling explosions, he burst apart like a blood-red firework.

He exploded.
