Embarking on the Journey with Hatred

"I'm willing! I'm willing!"

Hearing this deep, resonant voice ring out, Liu Yuan shouted in his heart without a moment's hesitation.

He had done nothing wrong, yet he had been buried alive due to the malice of wicked men.

Because of this, his heart was currently filled with a boundless hatred that had nowhere to be released.

For Liu Yuan, as long as it allowed him to complete his revenge, as long as it allowed him to properly punish Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, and their ilk.

Then he was willing to do anything!

Hearing the offer, he agreed without a second thought; he had no mind to verify its authenticity, for he only wanted revenge!

He wanted to crawl back from the edge of hell to the world of the living.

He wanted to obtain the strength sufficient to destroy everything.

And then, he would make those who bullied him and harmed him die out completely!

Thus, Liu Yuan's reply at this moment was extremely resolute.

"Hehehe."

"Good! Good! Good!"

The extremely deep voice became very satisfied after hearing Liu Yuan's answer.

Then, with a whoosh, Liu Yuan, who had still been buried in the soil by Yu Xiaogang and the others, was directly transported by the Death God to another area quite far from his previous location.

Over there, Yu Xiaogang, Flender, and the others were still feeling immensely proud and satisfied in their hearts for having buried Liu Yuan alive.

But here, Liu Yuan had already been successfully rescued and began preparing for his future revenge!

He coughed loudly several times on the spot, finally catching his breath.

Looking around again, he discovered that the surrounding environment had changed, and standing before Liu Yuan was a phantom figure wearing a black robe with a Great Scythe hanging on his back.

Liu Yuan recognized his identity at once.

Perhaps before this, while Liu Yuan was suffering being buried alive and had not yet been saved, he might have had some doubts about the owner of this voice in his heart.

But now, he had absolutely none, for he had saved him. Moreover, he could truly feel an extremely dark and deathly aura emanating from his body. Combined with his attire, Liu Yuan guessed that he was the Death God of this world.

"Are you the Death God?"

He asked the Death God before him repeatedly, his gaze respectful.

"That's right, I am the Death God, one of the most ancient and powerful gods in the God Realm."

Hearing this, the Death God smiled faintly at Liu Yuan and soon added.

"Isn't the strongest god in the God Realm one of the five God Kings? Are you also a God King?"

Liu Yuan was somewhat surprised to hear this and asked the Death God with confusion.

"You certainly know quite a bit."

The Death God had not expected Liu Yuan to know such things, so he said to him:

"The five God Kings are merely the five most powerful gods on the surface of the God Realm."

"Aside from the five God Kings, there are many even more powerful existences. For example, the God of Creation, the God of Judgment, and the Death God."

"These gods simply do not like to meddle in affairs, but that does not mean they do not exist, nor does it mean their strength is weaker than the five God Kings."

Liu Yuan was very surprised to hear this; after all, even as a transmigrator, this was the first time he had heard of such secrets of the God Realm.

However, he did not care about these things at the moment.

The only thing he cared about was whether the Death God before him could help him kill Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, and their group.

Therefore, he asked the Death God directly: "You said earlier that you could help me obtain power?"

"I want to kill those who harmed me. Is the power you are about to bestow upon me sufficient?"

The Death God only smiled faintly, his tone quite proud: "Do you know why the Death God is called the Death God?"

"Because as long as one inherits the godhood of the Death God, wanting a person to die, or even wanting a god to die, is as easy as can be."

"Never mind those small fries who offended you. As long as you inherit my godhood, if you want to go to the God Realm and kill the Asura God or the Sea God, it would be as simple as eating or drinking."

Liu Yuan's eyes were filled with excitement upon hearing this.

He soon asked again: "Then what price do I need to pay?"

The Death God simply shook his head: "Nothing at all. You just need to accept my inheritance and become the new Death God."

The Death God said to Liu Yuan in a low, lingering voice: "I have been in this position for too long. Although I possess powerful strength, staying in this position for so long is too boring."

"I want to step down from the position of Death God and travel the universe. It is a pity that no suitable successor has appeared."

"I waited for so many years before I finally waited for someone like you who is qualified, so you don't need to do anything; just go to the inheritance site I left on the Douluo Continent to accept the inheritance."

"Once completed, you will be the new Death God."

"You can swing your scythe as you please and make those who harmed you and insulted you pay the price."

"You are the Death God, and you have this qualification!"

Liu Yuan felt his blood boil upon hearing this.

If it could truly allow him to take his revenge, he would be willing to pay any price.

As long as he could be granted the power to slaughter Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, and the others, he was even willing to sacrifice everything he had.

Yet now, the Death God was telling him that he didn't need to pay anything at all; he only needed to accept the inheritance to possess such power.

What reason did Liu Yuan have to hesitate?

"Where is the location of the inheritance?"

Liu Yuan asked the Death God on the spot.

"You should be able to see it right now."

The Death God let out a soft chuckle.

After hearing that chuckle, Liu Yuan looked around and, sure enough, discovered that he could now see a massive pillar of black light in a certain direction.

He had never seen such a thing before, but now that it was before his eyes, Liu Yuan was certain that this was definitely the inheritance site the Death God had spoken of!

He had just turned his gaze back, intending to question the Death God once more.

But to his surprise, the phantom of the Death God before him had already vanished into thin air.

He looked left and right several times, but he could not find a trace of the Death God anywhere.

Just then, the deep, resonant voice of the Death God echoed around him once again.

"Since you can already see the location of the inheritance point, make haste and come to accept it."

"After what happened this time, you likely know it yourself: you are indeed very weak right now."

"So, if you want revenge, if you want to become stronger, then come quickly."

"I am waiting for you at the place of inheritance."

As the final sentence fell, the voice of the Death God faded away completely, and the terrifying aura of death that had surrounded him vanished at the same time.

Liu Yuan set off immediately, rushing toward the position of the black pillar of light.

Not long ago, he was a weakling.

Back then, when faced with oppression, even if he was filled with rage, he could only endure it in silence.

He was the fish on the chopping block, and others were the knife.

In the end, he suffered the miserable fate of being buried alive.

But now, he had been given a chance.

He had been given a chance to become stronger, a chance to take his revenge.

He had to seize it with all his might.

He had to ensure that everyone who had harmed him and humiliated him would be wiped out!

"Yu Xiaogang, Tang San. Just you wait, I will absolutely kill you with my own hands."

Thinking of this, Liu Yuan gritted his teeth and marched step by step toward the inheritance point.
