Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 1316 The Gentleman's Disguise (4K)

The realm of gods, the central hub of the realm of gods.

Despite the fact that most of their men had been captured, the gods of lust and wrath surprisingly did not suffer any setbacks.

The God of Destruction leaned back laboriously against the control panel in the central hub of the God Realm, looking at Tang San and chuckling.

"Tang San, didn't you think your calculations were foolproof? Didn't you think you could manipulate everyone like a puppet?"

The God of Destruction said, "If the divine realm continues to be ruled by you, that will be the real catastrophe. I've said it before, the catastrophe you've been planning is actually yourself."

"I'm not trying to start a rebellion, but to set things right. You think you have everything under control and that your calculations are flawless, but you've forgotten one thing: who in this world dares to say they've outsmarted everything?"

"You could have foreseen my mutiny, but your every move is bound to be impeccable."

Upon hearing this, Tang San's expression turned cold, and his gaze, like that of a venomous snake, fixed on the God of Destruction. After a long while, he finally smiled again.

"You're right, I truly cannot calculate the number of all living beings under heaven."

Tang San shook the blue silver tentacles on his back that were still continuously drawing dragon blood.

Looking at the God of Anger and the God of Lust confronting each other on the horizon, each holding Ma Hongjun, a calm expression appeared on his face.

Logically speaking, Ma Hongjun should have left the Undying Volcano and arranged for the two divine hunters to descend to the mortal realm. Even if the God of Lust and the God of Wrath went to the Undying Volcano, they would only make a wasted trip and find nothing.

Although Ma Hongjun has been captured, the overall situation is still under Tang San's control.

After all, he didn't need to do much; he only needed to control one or two of the Seven Deadly Sins Gods so that they couldn't activate the Seven Deadly Sins Array.

"Destruction? So what? Most of the seven original sin gods are now in my hands. Do you think you can deal with me with just the remaining two original sin gods and that elusive god of pride?"

Tang San's tone was very soft, as gentle and refined as a gentleman, but seeing the explosive and crazy look in Tang San's eyes that was exactly the same as that of the Golden Dragon King, both the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life felt a sense of fear.

"Tang San, why is it that all these years I've never doubted what you said?"

A look of sadness appeared on the face of the Goddess of Life. She had always thought that it was her husband who was biased, and that her suspicion of Tang San stemmed from her hostility toward her political enemies.

Who would have thought that Tang San had been plotting against them from the moment he arrived in the God Realm?

Tang San finally showed a hint of apology on his face: "I'm sorry, if the God of Destruction hadn't mentioned the Dragon God War so early on, letting me know just how powerful the Golden Dragon King really is, I might have really continued to pretend."

"After all, even obtaining a blessing from the goddess of life from you would be a considerable benefit."

"But now, it's not necessary."

A maniacal smile crept across Tang San's lips, and his right fist clenched unconsciously: "You simply don't understand just how powerful this force is. It's a force powerful enough for me to suppress the entire God Realm."

"Back then, when I first joined the Haotian Sect, I was as insignificant as a lackey. I had to grovel before those worthless elders of the Haotian Sect."

"But when I set foot on the Haotian Sect again, they were the ones who groveled and scraped!"

Tang San's voice grew louder and louder: "And just recently, because those useless bastards from the Clear Sky Sect were more useful dead than alive, I sent them all on their way, leaving not a single one alive in the entire sect."

"Do you know how difficult it is to maintain the image of a perfect gentleman? Do you know how difficult it is to take off this title of pure and immaculate after wearing it for so long?"

"Fortunately, there is a restriction here today, which was created when you suppressed the Golden Dragon King. That's why I can finally say a few words from the heart to you. Even Xiao Wu can't hear these words; only you two dead people can hear them."

Tang San's face flushed an unhealthy red, as if saying these words had relieved him of a great burden.

"Tang San, don't be too smug."

The God of Destruction's emotions fluctuated violently. He had never expected that the person chosen by Asura and the Sea God was actually a complete madman who hid himself under the guise of a gentleman.

"The divine realm isn't your domain yet. Besides the God of Original Sin, there are elemental gods, as well as good and evil. Do you think you can control everything now?"

Tang San laughed, a wildly arrogant laugh: "Destruction, oh destruction! You know that now only the Elemental Gods and the two Great God-Kings remain in the God Realm and have the ability to do anything. Don't you think about why I dare to do this under these circumstances?"

"In your eyes, I am the one who instigated the rebellion in the divine realm."

"But in my eyes, the one who instigated the rebellion in the divine realm is you."

Tang San's words gave the God of Destruction a very bad feeling: "Do you think it was all nonsense for me to let you run your own show for the past twenty years in the God Realm, to make you create chaos before you could do anything, until you couldn't take it anymore before agreeing to your plans?"

"Right now, the three of us are trapped inside the central hub of the God Realm, sealed within by the restrictions of the Forbidden Land of Gods. What makes you think everyone believes that I, Tang San, launched the rebellion?"

"Especially my relationship with the elemental gods, it's far better than yours, the head of the negative gods, no matter what, isn't it?"

As he spoke, Tang San turned to look at the pale-faced Goddess of Life: "Goddess of Life, I admit that you are probably the most popular person in the God Realm, but who told you to have such a husband?"

"Even if you are included, along with good and evil, and the seven elemental gods, can they really distinguish friend from foe and attack me immediately? I doubt it."

Tang San's words truly made the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave.

Yes, Tang San doesn't need the gods of good and evil to completely side with him, nor does he need the seven elemental gods to be at his beck and call.

What he needs now is simply to confuse them about friend and foe, to make them confused about the situation, and to give them even the slightest hesitation.

After all, Tang San is still continuously absorbing the power of the Golden Dragon King. Tang San can afford to wait it out, but they are the ones who can't!

The God of Destruction lowered his head and remained silent.

At least Tang San is unaware that the God of Good and the God of Evil are actually on their side.

But as Tang San said, what he needed was not the teams of the two God Kings and the seven Elemental Gods, but just their hesitation.

Almost at the same moment, one of the nine halo lights behind Tang San, which belonged exclusively to the Asura God, suddenly began to dim.
