"Perhaps." Xiao Ya gave Ming Yue a long look, then continued, "The last hidden ability."
"By using the Herrscher's power thirteen times, you can directly transform your body into Finality!"
"But the price is that Void Archives will fall asleep for a while, and your body will become extremely weak. So go and do what you want to do next."
"I'll be watching you from the Knowledge Space, my Ming Yue, my master."
As her voice faded, Xiao Ya's figure vanished from the spot.
The scene instantly fell silent.
Purple mist spread through the air. Ming Yue opened his arms and closed his eyes, feeling the Honkai Energy wash over him.
A moment later, he opened his golden eyes!
"An old era ended, and a whole new era began. That way, I will have lived up to my name, Qiangu Mingyue!"
"Now, it's finally time to settle our score, Little Scumbag. I hope your whole family is ready!"
Bringing Void Archives to the Golden Ancient Tree, Ming Yue lifted the Divine Grace Barrier that had kept it from growing for years!
Fine blue-gold lines appeared before Ming Yue's eyes. Watching where they stretched toward the horizon, he raised a hand to touch them and simulated Thousand Worlds.
His vision blurred, and the space that appeared before him once more was both chaotic and crystal clear!
Not far away, a burly middle-aged man gripped a mighty hammer, relentlessly unleashing energy alongside a beautiful woman!
".You've struggled for so long. Do you still think you can turn the tables on us?"
As the torrent of energy pounded down, the man's voice boomed like muffled thunder!
"After all these years, you must understand that you've already lost any hope. All this struggling will do is buy you a little more time."
The moment the man finished speaking, the beautiful woman's clear, melodious voice followed.
Yet in the face of their verbal assault, a furious roar came from nearby: "You despicable scum!"
"You're my children, yet you dare to try to murder your own father! You're no different from that filthy, thieving bastard of a son!"
At once, the energy surged even more fiercely.
Seeing this, Tang Hao and Ah Yin poured out even more divine power!
"Hahaha! My son Tang San has the makings of a great hero, and his grand undertaking is nearly complete!"
"As the Plane Spirit, shouldn't you offer yourself up and let me become the Plane Master?"
With each blow of the Great Sumeru Hammer, Tang Hao's brazen laughter rang out again and again.
".Once Ah Hao becomes the Plane Master, Douluo Planet can swallow the Abyss Plane and ascend!"
"Wouldn't offering yourself up now be a boon to Douluo Planet?"
As Tang Hao continued to hammer away with his Great Sumeru Hammer, Ah Yin added her own persuasion.
"..."
Perhaps the pair's shamelessness had left the Plane Spirit too angry to speak. It simply increased the force of its counterattack and said no more.
Watching the two sides clash fiercely, and amused by how shameless the pair had become, Ming Yue decided to stop observing and made his entrance with a loud voice. "People take on the colors of those around them. After spending so long with Tang San, that reincarnated soul-stealer, you've become just as shameless as he is."
His words were full of provocation. Ming Yue then sneered.
"Oh, no. Tang Hao, you were never a good person to begin with. At best, you and Tang San just stink of the same filth."
"Poor Ah Yin. She went from an innocent little Soul Beast to the wretched state she's in now."
"Of course, the pitiable always have their hateful side. The moment you went from victim to perpetrator, you became no different from them."
At his words, the churning energy abruptly stilled!
Tang Hao and Ah Yin quickly withdrew, wary. Soon, they saw Ming Yue approaching them at an unhurried pace—dressed in splendid robes, tall and handsome, with Void Archives floating beside him.
"Bold words! Boy, who are you!?"
Squinting at Ming Yue, Tang Hao gripped the Clear Sky Hammer and shouted angrily.
".This is a plane space that only a First-Level God can enter. Just who are you?"
Looking uneasy, Ah Yin watched Ming Yue warily as she asked.
But Ming Yue ignored their questions.
Walking past them as they watched him warily, he came before the Plane Spirit.
"You... you... you are...!?"
The Plane Spirit looked at Ming Yue, excited and anxious, at a loss for words.
"Hehehe. My name is Ming Yue. As for who I am, silly child, I'm the one who came to save you."
He reached out and rubbed the top of its round, glowing form, then turned to look at the pair.
Judging by the auras coming from them:
"That fellow Tang San is a calculating egoist, just like me, but I have to admit..."
"For someone raised as a Honkai zombie by the Tang Sect from childhood, he did a pretty good job of caring for and raising you two, unrelated as you are by blood."
After clicking his tongue in admiration, he noticed Tang Hao's expression turn uneasy.
Remembering some theories from readers in his past life, Ming Yue couldn't help asking, "You knew how to train and cultivate yourself from childhood."
"Before you were six, you could already fend for yourself and even support a drunkard like him."
"Tang Hao, you'd figured out long ago that Tang San wasn't your biological son, hadn't you?"
Watching his expression shift with interest, Ming Yue twisted the knife further.
"Tsk, tsk. He's using the body of your and Ah Yin's child, but his soul belongs to some monster of unknown age. How could you live with yourselves?"
"Oh, no. I should say you ought to thank Tang San, who stole your child's body and reincarnated into it."
"After all, he helped you take revenge, brought Ah Yin back to life to pay for your little schemes, and even helped you become First-Level Gods, didn't he?"
When he finished, Ah Yin's face was full of disbelief, while Tang Hao's had turned liver-purple. Ming Yue couldn't help bursting into laughter.
"Enough! You little brat, spouting nothing but nonsense! Die!!!"
He looked at Ming Yue with a touch of fear. His thoughts had, in truth, been exactly as Ming Yue had said.
After all, no matter how down on his luck he'd been, he was still a Titled Douluo. How could he not know about Tang San's so-called training?
At first, he'd thought none of it mattered and had planned to muddle through. But when Tang San told him he'd awakened Twin Martial Souls, hope had returned!
Now that Ming Yue had exposed him in front of Ah Yin, his face twisted with rage!
"Haha, you may be furious with shame, but the sad truth is, I'm stronger than you, you worthless piece of trash!"
With two loud laughs, he snapped his fingers. Void Archives merged directly into his body!
As purple mist roiled, his body, tempered by Honkai, began to change. A moment later, Ming Yue emerged from the dissipating mist in a form identical to Kevin's Karma Demon Entering the Abyss!
