Tang Chen's name appeared on the Heavenly Curtain, drawing the attention of many.

Aside from the excitement of everyone in the Clear Sky Sect, Qian Daoliu's expression also turned profound.

"Tang Chen, you vanished for so many years... Could it be because you failed to inherit the Asura God Position and perished?"

Qian Daoliu recalled the past.

Back then, he and Tang Chen had both been the strongest Soul Masters in the world, revered by all as the Two Peaks.

Together, they had explored Devil Island, otherwise known as Sea God Island.

There, both Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen fell for Bo Saixi.

Both of them confessed their feelings to Bo Saixi.

Yet when faced with their affection, Bo Saixi chose a tactful excuse to reject Qian Daoliu.

She declared that she would be with whoever could become a god.

Qian Daoliu understood what Bo Saixi meant, and never pursued her again.

With Qian Daoliu's talent, he was ultimately fated never to attain a God Position in this life.

Only Tang Chen had any hope.

Unfortunately, Tang Chen failed to understand Bo Saixi's unspoken meaning.

He swore that he would never return to Sea God Island unless he became a god.

From then on, news of Tang Chen gradually disappeared.

Sea God Island...

Bo Saixi's face was filled with longing.

"Tang Chen, what exactly happened after you left Sea God Island?"

"Why haven't you returned after all this time?"

Bo Saixi had waited fruitlessly for Tang Chen for many years.

To this day, she remained unmarried, still a virgin.

Bo Saixi only hoped that she could see Tang Chen again in this lifetime.

Tang Chen was the finest among all the inheritors I had ever seen!

He possessed astonishing talent and unwavering perseverance.

I bestowed the Asura Nine Trials upon him. Tang Chen fought his way through every obstacle and soon reached the Asura Eighth Trial, just one step away from the final path to godhood.

But at that crucial moment, the Rakshasa God sought revenge over her grudge with me. Thus, she tampered with the God Trial and plotted against Tang Chen.

Tang Chen was possessed by the Nine-Headed Bat King, lost his mind, and became lost in the City of Slaughter from then on.

As a God King, I saw through every one of the Rakshasa God's petty schemes. She thought she could deceive everyone, not knowing that I simply could not be bothered to care about the life or death of a Mortal.

Although I had always wanted to find a suitable successor to inherit the Asura God Position, and Tang Chen happened to meet the requirements, I was not satisfied with him.

My inheritor had to be the best possible choice!

In my view, Tang Chen lacked my ambition, and his thoughts were not deep enough. As my successor, if he lacked desire and ambition for power, he was destined never to amount to anything.

Thus, I abandoned Tang Chen and allowed the Rakshasa God to manipulate a Mortal as she pleased.

In another world, I found someone who met my expectations. His name was Tang San, and he came from the Tang Sect.

Tang San was an outer disciple of the Tang Sect. Though extraordinarily gifted, because of his status, he could never learn the inner sect's techniques and Hidden Weapons in his entire life.

Therefore, relying solely on himself, Tang San stole the Tang Sect's inner sect techniques and Hidden Weapons, mastering them all completely.

After the matter came to light, the Tang Sect elders pursued him.

Tang San was forced to the edge of a cliff with nowhere left to go. He knew that, faced with the pursuit of the Tang Sect elders, there was no way to turn things around.

Tang San left behind the Buddha Fury Tang Lotus, then leaped from the cliff, claiming that he was using death to prove his resolve.

I was very satisfied with this youth, who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

Because, like me, he thirsted for power. This was the successor I wanted to choose.

Even if my inheritor could not surpass his predecessor, he absolutely could not disgrace the name of Asura.

With the power of a God King, I saved the youth named Tang San and successfully allowed him to reincarnate in Douluo Continent, the lower realm where I had left my inheritance.

I believed that if he inherited the position of Asura, he would surely achieve great things in the future and be far more outstanding than Tang Chen.

Clear Sky Sect!

Tang Xiao and the Five Elders were all stunned on the spot.

"How can the Asura God be so despicable!"

"Even if he thought Grandpa unworthy and did not want him to inherit the God Position, he still should not have stood by and watched him die."

"Grandpa was his inheritor, after all. He could be considered one of his followers."

"The Rakshasa God chose to plot against Grandpa only to take revenge on the Asura God."

"How could he just stand by and watch Grandpa fall for the trap, losing himself in the City of Slaughter?"

Tang Xiao clenched his fists, furious beyond measure.

In the eyes of Gods, were Mortal lives really so worthless?

The Five Elders of the Clear Sky Sect were equally enraged.

"Gods are absolutely shameless!"

"One Rakshasa God and one Asura God—neither of them has any shame at all."

As a God, the Rakshasa God wanted revenge against the Asura God, yet instead of confronting him directly, she chose such underhanded means. It was truly disgraceful.

And the Asura God was no better than a beast.

He had the time to save Tang San and arrange for his reincarnation on the Douluo Continent.

Yet he stood by and watched his own successor, Tang Chen, die without lifting a finger.

How could such conduct not be that of a petty villain?

Anger was anger!

Although the Clear Sky Sect harbored countless grievances against the Rakshasa God and the Asura God, as Mortals, they had neither the standing nor the ability to condemn them.

The most urgent matter now was to hurry to the City of Slaughter and bring Tang Chen back.

As long as Tang Chen returned to the Clear Sky Sect to take charge of the situation, they could rise again and reclaim everything belonging to the number one sect under heaven.

They would not even need to fear Spirit Hall.

The Second Elder made a proposal!

They should immediately mobilize the sect's entire strength and head for the City of Slaughter.

No matter what, they had to rescue Tang Chen.

If the Asura God would not save him, then they would save him themselves.

Tang Xiao agreed with the Second Elder's suggestion.

However, the information provided by the Heavenly Curtain was still far too limited.

They only knew that Tang Chen had lost himself in the City of Slaughter.

They did not know his exact location or any further useful information.

Finding Tang Chen in the chaotic, dark City of Slaughter would be no easy task.

On top of that, there were the City of Slaughter's special rules.

Even if he, the sect leader, went personally, he might still perish there.

Being unable to use soul skills meant one's combat power would be greatly diminished.

A Title Douluo's advantage over Soul Masters weaker than themselves would vanish completely.

Everyone on the continent knew of the City of Slaughter's dangers.

Anyone who entered faced near-certain death.

"It seems Tang Hao will have to handle this matter!"

Tang Xiao's concerns were not without reason.

The Second Elder was also worried that if the Clear Sky Sect sent too many powerful experts, they would suffer losses in the City of Slaughter.

At present, no one was more suitable for entering the City of Slaughter than Tang Hao.

Tang Hao possessed Divine Slaughter's Domain. Besides Bibi Dong, he was the second Soul Master in a hundred years to break through Hell Road.

With Divine Slaughter's Domain, Tang Hao would not be affected by the City of Slaughter's rules.

Moreover, Tang Hao knew more about the City of Slaughter than anyone else in the Clear Sky Sect.

Sending him to find Tang Chen was the safest course of action.

As long as he succeeded, Tang Hao would have rendered a great service.

The sect would remember Tang Hao's contribution.

"Even if we say nothing, Brother Hao will do it himself!"

Tang Xiao understood Tang Hao's character.

He believed that Tang Hao's desire to find Tang Chen and bring him home was no less than theirs.
