Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect, Angels and Rakshasa Return

Chapter 227 - Shocking! Rong Nianbing is tricked by Tang Dashenwang.

Qian Lingyun is currently working as a veterinarian at the Lake of Life, while Huo Yuhao is lying on the bed on Seagod Island, on the verge of death.

This astonishing scene was witnessed by Tang Shenwang, who had just finished a meeting.

Tang Shenwang never expected that while he was holding a long meeting, several months had already passed in the mortal realm.

The chosen one (the new lackey) whom he had placed high hopes on actually suffered a double blow of soul power pollution and luck backlash in such a short period of time.

He had intended to make a "small move," but who would have thought that the God of Destruction had just imprisoned those two unlucky fellows, Titan Niu Tian, ​​in the dungeon and was keeping a close watch on him!

Thinking of this, Tang Shenwang became even more annoyed, and couldn't help but snort coldly, leaving a deep palm print on his desk.

Looking at Wang Dong sitting next to Huo Yuhao, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Little Seven, Little Seven, why wasn't it you who was corrupted by soul power! If it were you who was corrupted by soul power, I wouldn't say a word even if I had to go down to the mortal realm and destroy everything!"

After a long silence, King Tang finally sighed, his eyes darkening as he looked toward the direction of the destroyed castle before turning and leaving!

Back home, Tang Shenwang noticed Xiao Wu's slightly furrowed brow as soon as he entered the door. He asked, puzzled, "Xiao Wu, what's wrong? Why are you so down?"

"Sangie, tell me, has something happened to Daming and Erming?" Xiaowu looked at Tang Shenwang with teary eyes, her voice trembling as she cried, "Is it true?"

"..." Tang Shenwang was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, thinking to himself that only a few people in the God Realm Committee knew about the incident involving Titan Niu Tian, ​​and Xiao Wu at home could not possibly know about it!

Tang Shenwang asked, "Who told you that?!"

"It was Boss Dai who said it; he happened to see Da Ming and Er Ming being taken away by Destruction when he went out today..."

As she spoke, Xiao Wu's voice choked even more. She wiped her blurry rabbit eyes and tugged at Tang Shenwang's sleeve, pleading, "Sange, Da Ming and Er Ming are my family! You must save them from the clutches of the God of Destruction!"

"Rescue them..." Tang Shenwang's lips twitched helplessly.

The God of Destruction is known for his incorruptibility, making it virtually impossible to save the confirmed Titan Niu Tian from his clutches.

"They were caught red-handed by the God of Destruction and sent to the mortal realm. They've already been imprisoned in the Castle of Destruction. How can we save them?" Tang Shenwang asked, pulling Xiao Wu along as he sat down in a chair with a gloomy expression.

"Sangie, you're the God of Law Enforcement! Don't you even have a way to get the God of Destruction to back down?" Xiao Wu, hands on her hips, angrily pulled at Tang San, trying to reason with him.

"If you ask me, you're just too soft-hearted. You should have listened to Boss Dai and taken action against him sooner. Look, he's openly targeting your people now. A new emperor brings a new court; his constant double-dealing isn't good for the entire divine realm."

"Mmm, I'll consider it."

Tang Shenwang made a few half-hearted remarks, but he didn't actually listen to a word of it. Right now, his primary concern was how to keep the chosen one of Douluo Continent under his control, rather than those two useless people who had been destroyed and imprisoned.

Their strength and role are insignificant in his grand plan. Rather than worrying about them, it would be better to let Tang Wutong appear sooner and take down Huo Yuhao.

But how should we deal with this soul power pollution?

As Tang Shenwang frowned in deep thought, the image of a god suddenly appeared in his mind, instantly lifting his spirits.

"That's right! Rong Nianbing! Hasn't he been thinking about running away for a long time? Why not let him deal with Huo Yuhao's problems... Yes, that's it!"

Tang Shenwang Teng stood up, pulled Xiao Wu aside and comforted her for a few more moments, then strode towards Rong Nianbing's residence.

Walking into the valley, a pebble path appeared beneath his feet, stretching into the valley, with various plants growing on both sides.

The path wound its way inwards, and Huo Yuhao walked for about ten minutes before the scenery suddenly changed. A pavilion came into view.

Sitting in this pavilion was a young man, who looked to be about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. He was extremely handsome, with long golden hair draped over his shoulders, casual yet exuding a refined and approachable air.

Upon seeing Tang Shenwang arrive, the young man slowly opened his eyes, looked at the newcomer with a mocking expression, and said in a low voice, "Oh, Sea God, a rare guest indeed! What brings you to my humble abode?"

"Rong Nianbing, I've come here specifically to congratulate you," Tang Shenwang said with a forced smile, walking up to Rong Nianbing and sitting down beside her.

"Congratulations? What's there to be happy about!" Rong Nianbing frowned as she looked at Tang Shenwang, picked up the teapot beside her and poured him a cup of fragrant tea, asking curiously.

"Haha, of course, congratulations on your early departure from the God Realm!" Tang God King took the teacup, sipped it, and said slowly:

"Haven't you always wanted to relinquish your burdens and leave the realm of gods to live freely? Now your chance has come!"

"Oh!" Rong Nianbing raised an eyebrow, lightly tapping the table with her index finger, and said, "I'm all ears!"

"I found a promising talent in the Douluo World, and I originally intended to groom him as my successor, but... now things have changed a bit!"

"I can't afford to divert my resources just yet, but it would be a shame to let such a promising talent slip away, so..."

Before Tang Shenwang could finish speaking, Rong Nianbing chuckled and teased, "So, you came to me wanting me to pass on my divine position to him, right?!"

"..."

Tang Shenwang did not answer, but looked at Rong Nianbing with great sincerity.

"..."

After being looked at so earnestly by Tang Shenwang for a while, Rong Nianbing helplessly rubbed her aching temples and explained:

"I haven't even seen that promising talent you mentioned, how can I pass the divine position to him? Just because you say he's good doesn't mean I have to agree!"

Tang Shenwang keenly sensed the opportunity and took out a small mirror from his waist, handing it to Rong Nianbing.

"Well, you really came prepared!" Rong Nianbing looked into the mirror and saw Huo Yuhao's short but tumultuous life reflected in it.

In the last image reflected in the mirror, Huo Yuhao lay dying on the bed.

With Rong Nianbing's discerning eye, he naturally saw the problem. He glanced at Tang San and said coldly, "What has corrupted this kid?"

"As you know, I am the God of Law Enforcement, and I cannot arbitrarily interfere with the mortal realm," Tang Shenwang waved his hand solemnly, as if he were truly as pure and innocent as he claimed.

Rong Nianbing continued, "So, you want me to use the opportunity of passing on the inheritance to this kid to also cleanse him of all this pollution, right?"

"Yes, that would be best," Tang Shenwang nodded.

"Fine, I'll do you a favor and temporarily pass this divine position to him. But..."

Just as Tang Shenwang was secretly pleased, Rong Nianbing's question made his heart leap into his throat. He asked, "But what?"

"However, I'm also letting you know upfront: if this kid can't pass my test, then... we're done!"

With that, Rong Nianbing got up and left the pavilion, disappearing to who-knows-where.

Sitting alone in the pavilion, Tang Shenwang watched Rong Nianbing's departing figure, a slight smile playing on his lips. He thought to himself, "So, it really does take my personal intervention!"

(① Tang Shenwang is just that kind of person. He can split his daughter into several shells, so naturally he doesn't love his daughter much. He just uses Tang Wutong as a dog chain to keep Huo Yuhao in check.)

Tang Wutong's role was simply to restrict her godmother, the Goddess of Life, and to tie Huo Yuhao down, thus connecting him with Rong Nianbing and the Elemental God.

②, From the original text of the Legend of the Gods: Third Brother, you're just too soft-hearted. You should have listened to Boss Dai back then and taken action against him sooner. A new emperor brings a new court; he's always outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant towards you, which isn't good for the entire God Realm.

This really cracked me up. The new god said the veteran, first-generation gods were outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant, and that every new emperor brings a new court. This old rabbit really is brainless; he can talk a good game.
