God of Destruction!!

Hearing this cold voice, Tang San felt his heart tighten. He clenched his fists and closed his eyes, as if resigning himself to his fate.

The one thing he dreaded most had happened.

He had been so blinded by the recent events that he forgot the anomaly in the God Realm Hub was enough to draw the attention of the other God Kings.

Given the strength of the God Kings, it would only take them a few seconds to travel from their residences to the God Realm Hub.

Tang San felt he had been played.

That sneer from earlier sounded so grating now that he thought back on it.

Was even provoking him part of that thing's calculation?

Tang San had to admit one thing at this moment.

He had lost.

At the same time, he became even more determined to eliminate that thing.

No matter what it was or where it came from, he had to find a way to get rid of it; otherwise, it would sooner or later become a disaster.

It had already invited the path of death!

"Sea God, I am asking you a question!"

Seeing Tang San remain silent, the eyes of the God of Destruction grew increasingly irritable.

He had long been displeased with the Sea God before him.

So much so that even now, the God of Destruction refused to address Tang San as the Asura God.

In the heart of the God of Destruction, the guy before him was unworthy of the position of Asura.

He was barely fit to be a Sea God, and that was that.

In fact, that was indeed the case.

Tang San's Asura God position had been obtained through a loophole; it did not strictly meet the standards of the God Realm.

The Sea God was the only position he had obtained legitimately and received recognition for.

However, the previous Asura God had passed his power to him, and that was an undeniable fact.

The God of Destruction and the others had no choice but to tolerate this somewhat non-compliant Asura God.

It was inevitable, however, that they would harbor dissatisfaction.

Although the God of Destruction and the previous Asura God had slight disagreements regarding the management of the God Realm, the God of Destruction at least admired the previous Asura God from the bottom of his heart, acknowledging his strength and character—one could even say he held him in awe.

But this guy before him could not elicit even a shred of respect.

The God of Destruction had seen it from the very beginning.

Tang San was not suited for the position of a God Realm Enforcer.

His personal desires were too heavy!

An Enforcer needed extreme rationality and coldness, like a machine, to ensure the fairness of enforcement and to command the conviction of the other gods.

And this Sea God did not possess these qualities.

While Tang San remained silent, three more figures appeared around the God Realm Hub.

They were the Goodness God King, the Evil God King, and the Goddess of Life, the partner of the God of Destruction.

The God Realm Committee was now officially assembled.

The Goddess of Life walked directly into the God Realm Hub, while the Goodness God King and the Evil God King exchanged glances and remained outside.

They had roughly grasped the situation.

There was nothing wrong with the God Realm Hub; it must have been something Asura did that caused the disturbance, which in turn alerted them.

The Goddess of Life was enough to mediate; if the two of them got involved, it would only make the situation more serious.

Seeing the Goddess of Life enter, Tang San realized that silence would not solve the subsequent problems, so he could only speak up.

"I am performing my duties as an overseer. Is there a problem?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the God of Destruction was so angry he laughed.

A dignified God King, yet he dared not own up to his actions?

"Heh, do you think I would believe that?"

With that, the aura around the God of Destruction began to distort, and he became extremely dangerous.

Tang San remained silent, but he was ready to draw the Asura Demon Sword at any moment.

"Alright, alright, Destruction, calm down."

At the critical moment, it was the Goddess of Life who stepped forward to smooth things over. She took a step forward, standing between the God of Destruction and Tang San.

Only she could pacify the enraged God of Destruction.

Hearing the words of the Goddess of Life, the God of Destruction restrained himself, preventing the atmosphere from becoming even more tense.

Seeing the God of Destruction calm down slightly, the Goddess of Life turned her gaze toward Tang San and spoke with hesitation.

"Sea God, the God Realm Hub concerns the life and death of the entire God Realm. You at least owe us an explanation as to why it suddenly behaved so abnormally today."

The attitude of the Goddess of Life was clearly much better than that of the God of Destruction, but the underlying meaning of her words remained unchanged.

The God Realm Hub was the lifeblood of the God Realm; as God Kings, they could not allow any hidden dangers that might threaten it to exist.

Should he tell the truth?

Or should he continue to conceal it?

Tang San only pondered for a fleeting moment before making the choice that was one hundred percent in his favor.

He absolutely could not tell them about this matter!

If he were to reveal the whole story, although that unknown entity could likely be purged, his own plans would be completely ruined along with it.

Tang San could never tolerate such a thing happening.

And so, faced with the stepping stone the Goddess of Life had laid out for him, Tang San stubbornly refused to step down, remaining as obstinate as a mule.

"I only came here to inspect the area; I have no idea what happened."

As soon as these words left his mouth, the God of Destruction reacted intensely again, nearly drawing his Scepter of Destruction this time.

"Do you take us all for fools?!!"

The expression on the face of the Goddess of Life was not very pleasant either, but she still endured it and said, "Sea God, without evidence, it is difficult for us to believe your words."

"Evidence? I don't even know what happened! Where am I supposed to find evidence for you?!"

Tang San's emotions also flared up, and he spoke as if he were being vicious.

"You want evidence, fine! I'll swear an oath to you on Wutong and Xiao Wu! Is that enough!!"

With that, he actually began to swear the oath.

"If I had anything to do with today's incident..."

"Alright, alright, Sea God, there is no need to go that far. We believe you."

Hearing that Tang San was actually willing to take such a poisonous oath on his wife and daughter, the Goddess of Life felt a massive headache coming on and hurriedly interrupted him.

When it came down to it, the God Realm Hub had not truly suffered any damage, and they had only come here seeking a simple explanation.

Forcing him to the point of taking a poisonous oath to prove his innocence would not be good for anyone.

The Goddess of Life suddenly realized with a sense of helplessness that although this anomaly had not led to any irreversible consequences, the situation had now developed to an almost absurd degree.

The four of them couldn't possibly gang up on the Sea God over this, could they?

Although he was addressed as the Sea God, if they were to truly fight, Tang San possessed the genuine Asura Divine Power.

Most importantly, There was absolutely no need for it!

After weighing the pros and cons, the Goddess of Life shook her head.

She knew that even if she continued to press him, she would not get any results; this matter would have to end here.

She took a deep look at Tang San and said, "Sea God, for the sake of the God Realm, if there are any abnormalities in the future, you must notify us immediately."

"Destruction's temper is a bit poor, but he also genuinely cares for the God Realm."

"Only if we work together can the God Realm have a better future."

After these words, Tang San's expression softened significantly.

Since the Goddess of Life had spoken to this extent, it meant that this matter was temporarily brushed aside.

He should know when to quit while he was ahead.

After nodding to the Goddess of Life, Tang San turned around and walked straight out of the God Realm Hub.

Even as he left, his face still wore a deeply gloomy and indignant expression, as if he had truly been wronged.

This matter could be considered closed for now.

The Goodness God King and the Evil God King, who had been listening from the outside for a long time, also left silently, acting as if this had never happened.

Only the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life, that pair of husband and wife, remained within the God Realm Hub.

"Xiao Lv, what do you think he is doing?"

Watching Tang San's retreating back, the God of Destruction put away his previous irritable demeanor, replacing it with an icy coldness.

"The Sea God knows his limits; he would not truly do anything harmful to the God Realm."

The Goddess of Life sighed, not answering the question directly.

The look in the eyes of the God of Destruction was dark and unfathomable.

After a long silence, he finally spoke.

"From today on, I will remain stationed at the God Realm Hub."

"As for my other affairs, let the Evil God King and the Goodness God King handle them for me."

"Very well."

The Goddess of Life nodded.

Meanwhile, Tang San, who had already departed, still wore a grim expression.

After this incident, Destruction would likely never give him another chance to approach the Hub.

Without the assistance of the God Realm Hub, he could not fully control the events unfolding on the Douluo Continent.

Yet, that thing could not be left alone; it had to be dealt with as soon as possible.

Tang San was contemplating how to utilize other methods to resolve the situation.

At the very least, he had to probe the true strength of his opponent.

At Shrek Academy, in front of the Sea God Statue.

Once the final stick of incense had burned out, Huo Yuhao had officially completed his daily check-in task.

He opened his eyes, skillfully cleaned up the surrounding area, and stood up, preparing to go find Tang Ya to sell grilled fish.

But as Huo Yuhao turned around, he discovered a sexy beauty with long red hair standing right behind him, eyeing him with great curiosity, as if she had just discovered some novel object.

Huo Yuhao's gaze immediately locked onto her proud figure and the exaggerated, full curves at her chest.

Within the entire academy, there was only one person who possessed such a proud figure.

The Flame Maniac, Ma Xiaotao.

Huo Yuhao was somewhat puzzled.

Why was she here?
