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

Chapter 425 I actually wanted to kill you (Part 2)

Whether it was Xingluo City in the Xingluo Empire, Mingdu, Shrek City, or the Star Dou Great Forest, all of them felt the terrifying pressure from the God King realm.

As if it were a harbinger of the end of the world, a strong sense of unease rose in everyone's heart and lingered.

Inside Shrek Academy, Zhu Zhuqing, who was instructing Zhu Lu in cultivation, suddenly raised her head and looked out the window in disbelief.

Beside her, Zhu Lu asked somewhat nervously.

"Ancestor, I feel like a heavy stone is pressing on my heart, and I feel quite uncomfortable. Has something happened?"

"This is divine thought, the divine thought of the Asura God."

Zhu Zhuqing's pupils trembled, and her lips trembled for a long time before she finally managed to express her words in a broken and complete manner.

"Tang, Tang San... he's descended to the mortal realm!"

"Is that the scent of a mistress?"

The same scene unfolded in Mingdu. Feeling the oppressive force descending from the sky and enveloping the hearts of every living being, Tang Hao's pupils involuntarily contracted.

Isn't my mistress still waiting for me in the mortal realm?

I haven't even had a chance to tell Xiaowu yet!

Could it be that imposter from the God Realm? He can even mimic the aura of the Asura God!

But what did he want to do when he descended to the mortal realm?

Are they planning to stage another act before things settle down, completely framing the real Tang San?

Thinking of this, Tang Hao felt a chill run down his spine.

Yes.

The imposter is making such a big show of attracting the attention of beings in the lower realm, probably because he wants to make a big fuss and let everyone know that 'Tang San' has violated the rules of the God Realm and come to the lower realm.

As for what will happen next, he doesn't even need to think about it to guess the general plot.

It's likely that the God of Destruction will appear soon, using the banner of justice to capture Tang San and bring him back to the God Realm for judgment.

Even worse, the imposter might fiercely resist at this point, forcing the God of Destruction to use drastic measures to kill it.

In this way, the imposter can make a clean exit without arousing suspicion from others, thus completing the loop with their previous act of secretly killing the real Tang San!

As for Tang San's relatives and companions, some were dead and some were injured. Even if they suspected something, they didn't have the ability to investigate, and they might even be implicated.

You can never truly know a person's heart just by looking at their face. I never imagined that the God of Destruction, who usually follows the rules so well, would be so vicious in private!

It is no exaggeration to say that things have come to this point, and it is almost as if the victory of the God of Destruction has been declared.

Unfortunately, this seemingly perfect plan ultimately couldn't escape a flaw!

No matter how much the God of Destruction thought, he would never have imagined that a wisp of Tang San's soul would have managed to escape back to the Douluo Continent, and that Tang San would have even stumbled upon it and told him what had happened.

As long as he can return to the God Realm alive and tell Xiao Wu about this, there is still hope to reverse everything!

Just then, a cry of alarm suddenly came from afar.

"Look at the sky! Something's gone!"

Almost instinctively, Tang Hao looked up, only to see the scarlet trail remaining in the sky, tearing apart the thick clouds.

Tang Hao's pupils contracted slightly, clearly surprised by the imposter's strength.

But in the next instant, the trajectory suddenly returned, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived above Mingdu again. Accompanied by a joyful voice, Tang Hao felt a gentle force suddenly come from around him, which lifted him uncontrollably into the air, and he arrived in front of Tang San, who was surrounded by blood-red light.

"Father, what are you doing here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang San seemed to sense Tang Hao's weakness, his expression changed drastically, and the killing intent emanating from him intensified, causing Tang Hao in front of him to tremble and show a pained expression.

Upon seeing this, Tang San was startled and quickly suppressed his aura, but his tone was still full of concern and killing intent.

"I'm sorry, Father, I got a little too emotional. By the way, how did you end up like this? Who did this?"

I'm so excited!

I think you're doing this on purpose!

Seeing this imposter still putting on airs in front of him, Tang Hao felt nauseous. While cursing inwardly, he had to pretend to be indifferent and weakly waved his hand.

"It's alright. I originally came down to the mortal realm to find your mother, Ah Yin, but I encountered Huo Yuhao and barely managed to escape. Then I ran into the God of Emotions, who enforces the law in the mortal realm, and that's how I was unfortunately captured."

"Huo Yuhao, it's you again!!!"

Upon hearing that name, Tang San nearly ground his teeth to powder: "If I don't kill you this time, I, Tang San, swear I'm not human!!!"

However, these words, full of emotion, sounded utterly ridiculous to Tang Hao.

It's just a fake, but the little bastard is quite the convincing imposter!

No way! Even if we can't just tell the truth directly, we have to disgust this guy!

With this thought in mind, Tang Hao showed just the right amount of concern on his face.

"Young Master, why couldn't I find any trace of your mother, Ah Yin, even after searching the lower realms? How is she now?"

Tang San's body stiffened for a moment, and his expression darkened slightly.

"Before descending to the mortal realm this time, I had already received news of my mother's death. It seems that Huo Yuhao took advantage of my preoccupation with the Nine-Colored Goddess to secretly harm her!"

As if afraid that Tang Hao would be heartbroken, he quickly added, "But Father, don't worry, I'm planning to go find that guy now. Not only will I be able to avenge Mother, but I might also have a chance to retrieve her soul and resurrect her in the God Realm!"

Damn it, I already guessed that Ah Yin had been killed a long time ago, but this guy said that she only recently fell into Huo Yuhao's hands.

Even now, he's still lying. He's definitely a complete imposter! He can't possibly be his filial, upright, and intelligent mistress!

And you even said you'd bring him back to the God Realm to be resurrected? You probably just want me, your father, to be a witness to your exit as Tang San, don't you?

Alright, since that's the case, let me see just how far you plan to go with this act!

Thinking of this, Tang Hao revealed a furious expression: "Little San, take me with you! I want to kill that bastard myself and avenge Ah Yin!"

Tang San never expected that his father would believe him so easily, so much so that the explanation he had prepared was useless.

However, he didn't dwell on it too much, assuming it was just his father's protectiveness of his wife. He nodded and flew with Tang Hao toward the Jingyang Mountains.

As one of the five strongest beings in the God Realm, Tang San's speed when he unleashes his full power is naturally beyond imagination.

Even without mastering the power of space, with the support of his God-King realm cultivation, he arrived above the Jingyang Mountains in just a moment.

Only after placing Tang Hao in a safe place did he roar out.

"Huo Yuhao!!! Get out here right now!"

His words, brimming with murderous intent, caused a tremor throughout the heavens and earth, his voice surging forth like waves from all directions.

The nine blood-red halos behind them, symbolizing the realm of the God-King, shone brightly at this moment, turning the originally clear and cloudless sky crimson. A chilling aura of death, like mountains of corpses and seas of blood, instantly enveloped the entire mountain range.

The divine power that roams the heavens descends upon the mortal world at this moment.

The soul beasts below were already trembling with fear from the overwhelming aura, their legs so weak that even escaping was a luxury.

In the depression at the center of the mountain range, Rong Nianbing also sensed that aura.

"Tsk, what perfect timing, we were just a little short."

For no apparent reason, he looked down at Huo Yuhao, whose eyes were still tightly closed, as if he were enduring immense pain.

Ah Yin and Elder Yi, who were present earlier, have disappeared. The former has completely transformed into a spirit and merged into Huo Yuhao's body.

The latter, due to its low cultivation level and having spent too long in this environment filled with destructive power, has also returned to its spiritual space and fallen into slumber.

Besides the two of them, Huo Yuhao's collapsed body also recovered as the two forces gradually reached a balance. It is worth noting that his chest still emitted a captivating light.

It was as if there was a vortex in his heart, similar to a soul core, formed by the convergence of creative and destructive forces. The energy fluctuations that erupted from time to time were enough to make Rong Nianbing feel a pang of fear.

He is witnessing history.

For no reason at all, Rong Nianbing thought to herself.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that such a monster, powerful enough to make even the divine realm tremble, was actually born from resources in a lower realm.

How about we send the child to the Douluo Continent to be trained for a few years?

At least I can benefit from it.

Although she was muttering to herself, Rong Nianbing knew that Huo Yuhao's achievements at this moment were probably unparalleled.

The reason is simple: just look at the remains of the progenitor of dragons, whose power has been completely drained and which have become dim and lifeless.

Although so many years have passed, the energy it contains can no longer compare with that of a true god-king.

But don't forget, Huo Yuhao also absorbed the power of creation!

The combined essence of Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin, a second-level god, along with the life energy contained in the Sword of Life and Gu Yuena's Gold of Life, ultimately created this unimaginable monster.

Of course, although it lost all its life energy, the Sword of Life itself was preserved. Moreover, it even fused with Gu Yuena's piece of Gold of Life during the process.

Just like when it absorbed the living gold from the golden tortoiseshell and transformed from a carving knife into a short blade, this time the change is even more significant, transforming it directly from a short blade into a greatsword with a shape somewhat similar to the Asura Demon Sword.

This turned out to be the case because the piece of Life Gold provided by Gu Yuena was large enough, and also because of Huo Yuhao's guidance.

Because the Sword of Life replicated the characteristics of the Golden Dragon Spear through the source of jealousy, as a power-type artifact, its form naturally focuses on power.

The same amount of force will produce different results when slashing with a dagger versus hacking with a greatsword.

In addition to the Golden Dragon Spear's many characteristics, it still retains the ability to judge, drawing energy from rare metals. However, it can no longer inject life energy to achieve the purpose of healing by stabbing people in the heart, as it did before.

However, Huo Yuhao can now do the last one himself, and no longer needs to rely on the so-called Sword of Life.

Having lost its life energy, perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it the Sword of Judgment now.

But that's not all. Beneath Huo Yuhao, the ninth spirit ring, also composed of two forces, was solidifying, clearly indicating that it was nearing its final stage.

After a sigh, Rong Nianbing's face suddenly turned bitter, and she couldn't help but shake her head.

"Thinking about it, it really is an undeserved disaster. I thought I could just slack off and get through the chore and then go back, but I never expected to end up like this. I should never have come down here no matter what..."

As he spoke, he slowly stood up.

"Alright, I might as well go all the way... Kid, I've helped you so much, so don't let me down and end up losing to Tang San and the others."

However, just as he was about to go out to meet the enemy, Gu Yuena, who was far away, spoke up.

"I'll go too."

"Are you going too?"

Rong Nianbing paused for a moment, then couldn't help but remind her.

"Although I don't know why that God of Food possessed the power of the Asura God, the one outside now is the true Asura God in person, and his strength is far greater than the God of Food you encountered before."

"I know."

Gu Yuena nodded: "So I want to give it a try."

Rong Nianbing choked for a moment, wanting to say, "Why can't you understand what I'm saying?"

According to the information he had gathered, Gu Yuena had probably lost to the God of Cookery in their battle, and only won when Huo Yuhao came to her rescue.

However, since she couldn't beat Oscar, she's now actively seeking out Tang San. What's going on here?

After thinking for a moment, he asked hesitantly.

"You were hiding your true strength before?"

Gu Yuena remained noncommittal.

He simply raised his palm, revealing a blazing crimson flame burning in his palm.

That was the fire element she controlled.

"Although they are elements of fusion, there are still differences between them. After all, fusing two elements is considered fusion, fusing three elements is considered fusion, and fusing six elements is also considered fusion."

As she finished speaking, to Rong Nianbing's astonishment, the five basic elements other than fire appeared out of thin air one after another, and merged with the crimson flames like a hodgepodge.

Gradually, the flames, now laced with potent ingredients, transformed from their original crimson color into a dazzling, glass-like luster.

It was as if it had broken through some intangible and imperceptible boundary, completing an unprecedented qualitative change. The energy fluctuations emitted by the flames even made Rong Nianbing feel a pang of fear.

Without a doubt, this is one of the Dragon God's other halves, the true power possessed by the Silver Dragon King.

The Golden Dragon King inherited the Dragon God's physique and possessed a powerful body capable of withstanding the Asura Demon Sword. How could she, as the Silver Dragon King, be so restrained by the so-called Asura God's power?

Since a single basic element can be countered by the power of the Asura God, even fusing three or four elements cannot match it.

Then let's merge them all!

"How is that possible?"

As a deity who, to some extent, also utilized the seven basic elements, Rong Nianbing was well aware of just how difficult it was to achieve this.

Especially someone like Gu Yuena, who can fuse at will, anytime and anywhere, without any assistance, would probably never have believed it if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.

"How did you do that?"

Gu Yuena raised an eyebrow, pondered for a moment, and gave her answer.

"Innate?"

"...?"

Rong Nianbing felt her head buzzing, and just as she was about to say something, she suddenly shuddered.

"I understand, you are the other half of the Dragon God."

Perhaps having understood Gu Yuena's identity and acknowledged her strength, he did not continue to dissuade her this time.

Even if he was confident in his own strength, he would not consider himself a match for a god-king.

If Tang San were in his current Sea God position, he might still be able to put up a fight, but since the other party has clearly come with the Asura God position, all he can do is stall for time as much as possible.

"Let's make this clear beforehand: even with you, we still have no chance of defeating Tang San. Perhaps we have the strength to contend with him in terms of power, but the gap in cultivation level is not so easy to bridge. The God King is not an easy opponent."

"understood."

Gu Yuena nodded.

Actually, back when she first encountered Oscar, she was planning to go all out.

However, after Ning Rongrong came out, she talked a lot with Oscar, and even tried to dissuade him several times in order to save his life.

This awkward scene made her wonder how the person subject to the master-servant contract would choose in such a dilemma.

This idea reached its peak when Oscar explicitly stated that he would take her hostage and threaten Huo Yuhao to release Ning Rongrong.

After all, from any perspective, this is a rare and precious opportunity, the best scenario for testing the effectiveness of the master-servant contract.

First, judging from the logic of the master-servant contract, the target of this attack is Gu Yuena, not Huo Yuhao, with whom she has a contract.

This means that the master-servant contract doesn't actually have much binding force on Ning Rongrong at this moment.

Secondly, Oscar is in a life-or-death situation. If she provides help, she can ensure her husband's safety and even have the opportunity to break free from the contract and regain her freedom.

In the absence of any constraints, such a temptation was presented to Ning Rongrong, which can be considered a simulation of a rare extreme situation to some extent.

If Ning Rongrong passes the test under these circumstances, then they will no longer need to worry about the effectiveness of the master-servant contract.

The result was obvious: Ning Rongrong did not use any of the support abilities that enhanced combat power to help either side, but instead relied solely on the Invincible Divine Light to help her, who was at a disadvantage, resist attacks.

Despite her attempts to appear submissive and make Ning Rongrong feel that freedom was within her grasp, the other party still firmly protected her.

Although she still tries her best to avoid hurting her former companions and seems somewhat hesitant when faced with choices, Gu Yuena is somewhat relieved about the master-servant contract.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have so easily allowed Ah Yin to become Huo Yuhao's soul this time.

Composing herself, she raised her hand and summoned the Silver Dragon Spear, gave Huo Yuhao a deep look, and turned to walk away.

Only when its figure was completely hidden in the purple energy and disappeared from Rong Nianbing's sight did a dragon's roar that resounded through the heavens and earth suddenly erupt.

From the silence, Rong Nianbing shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"No wonder you two got together, you're both equally crazy..."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at Huo Yuhao again and tease him softly.

"Go for it, little guy, I'm putting my life on the line this time."

After saying that, he didn't hesitate any longer, bursting into speed and rushing out of the canyon.

The same dragon's roar naturally reached Tang San's ears as well.

Looking at the silver-haired girl who soared into the sky and arrived in front of him, his face did not show any surprise.

After all, the moment his divine sense covered the area, he had already thoroughly investigated the situation inside and out.

He knew everything about Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena, and even Rong Nianbing was present.

Even so, his confidence in his own abilities still led him to approach them without hesitation.

"Let Rong Nianbing come out too. You can't stop me by yourself. Or you can turn around and leave now, and I can forgive and forget what you've done."

At this point, Tang San paused, his voice suddenly becoming extremely violent.

"Otherwise, you will all die today!"

As if stating a fact, he no longer concealed his brutal killing intent, and an overwhelming pressure enveloped Gu Yuena.

However, Gu Yuena's body was covered with a thin film similar to the flames from before, which actually made her seem completely unaffected by the pressure of the God-King realm.

"Although you are no longer the Shura who killed the Dragon God with a single sword, as his successor, it is only right that you bear this hatred on his behalf."

Staring blankly at Tang San, Gu Yuena's usually calm purple eyes suddenly blazed with fierce fighting spirit.

"You say you don't want to kill me, but my body's instincts are telling me otherwise."

"I actually quite wanted to kill you."
