Demonic Pill Tang Chuan Swears Siblinghood with the Blue Silver Emperor

"Th-That can't be possible, right? Am I seeing things? Why is Black World Tang Chuan's first soul ring a fifteen-hundred-year purple soul ring?"

"Wasn't the maximum age for a first soul ring four hundred and twenty-three years?"

"And what does Black Blue Silver Grass mean? How is it different from ordinary Blue Silver Grass?"

"What the hell? Blue Silver Grass can take the assault-type path too? Is he planning to whip people with vines, or did Black World Tang Chuan add a soul ring to the Clear Sky Hammer first?"

"Damn it, why are five minutes taking so long? I want to see how he got a thousand-year first ring already!"

Discussion rose and fell throughout the Spirit Hall Arena.

The sheer intensity of the debate was astonishing.

Everyone faintly sensed something.

Black World Tang Chuan's life story would most likely bring them an enormous surprise.

As long as they could grasp the secret behind Tang Chuan's ability to absorb high-age soul rings—

the younger generation of their clans and factions would surely benefit from it.

Yet within the crowd,

Yu Xiaogang stared blankly, his face pale as he struggled to accept reality.

Could Black World Yu Xiaogang be more outstanding than him?

Otherwise, why would that man have Tang Chuan take the assault-type path and even allow him to absorb soul rings beyond his limits?

Tang San had only achieved a ten-thousand-year fourth ring thanks to the support of immortal herbs.

But the physical constitution of a six-year-old child—

by all logic, should have made absorbing a thousand-year soul ring impossible.

How had he done it?

If I could absorb soul rings beyond my limits too,

would my martial soul still have a chance to evolve?

Hope flared in Yu Xiaogang's eyes.

Oscar carefully read through the information on both of them again and again before suddenly noticing something wrong!

"Damn, this isn't right. Why does this Tang Chuan have two spouses?"

"And there's an ellipsis after that. Does that mean there are more than two?"

The moment that topic came up, Ma Hongjun immediately perked up.

"Holy shit, Tang San's king-of-the-sea version."

"So many spouses... That's way too enviable."

"Do you think Third Brother might become a scumbag someday too...?"

Before Ma Hongjun could finish, Xiao Wu and Tang San immediately shot him vicious looks.

He gave an awkward, fawning laugh and shut his mouth.

Still, a trace of jealousy and dissatisfaction inevitably flashed through his heart.

Looking at Tang San's utterly ordinary face,

Ma Hongjun inwardly grumbled, Why the hell could Third Brother from a parallel world look like that and still have so many beautiful women liking him?

Meanwhile, I, the owner of a Phoenix martial soul, can only visit chicken coops every day.

This is way too unfair.

Seeing how angry Tang San and Xiao Wu were, Ning Rongrong immediately spoke up to comfort them.

Yet compared to everyone else, her reaction, along with Dai Mubai's and Zhu Zhuqing's, was clearly much calmer.

After all, one had been born into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect,

while the other two came from Star Luo's royal family and the Zhu Clan.

They had long grown accustomed to the matter of multiple spouses.

Thus, their attention was focused on how to obtain a method for absorbing high-age soul rings.

And so, beneath the expectant gazes of all,

the Black World projection officially began.

[The time was immediately after Ah Yin's sacrifice.]

[During this period.]

[Lan Yin buried Ah Yin and Tang Hao, the married couple, within the Blue Silver Forest.]

[After absorbing the life essence they had left behind, she successfully completed her breakthrough.]

[She became a true hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor.]

[However, she did not choose to rebuild herself into a human.]

[Instead, like the Ten Great Savage Beasts ten thousand years later, she chose to assume a humanoid form.]

[In her transformed state.]

[Lan Yin could not only retain the full strength of her hundred-thousand-year cultivation, but also travel through the human world in human form.]

[Combined with her innate ability to conceal her aura.]

[Even a Titled Douluo standing before her would be unable to see through her true identity.]

[After Lan Yin broke through, in order to keep Tang Chuan from becoming disconnected from the human world.]

[She brought Tang Chuan to a border village in the Heaven Dou Empire and entrusted him to a kind old man.]

[While she herself took root in the village's back mountain.]

[Silently watching over Tang Chuan.]

The gears of fate quietly shifted. As the projection's perspective gradually rose,

everyone saw the name of this village.

This was none other than Holy Soul Village.

[Inside an old, somewhat weathered shrine in Holy Soul Village.]

[Two people were currently drinking strong liquor with their arms around each other's shoulders. As they chatted, they decided to swear brotherhood, then knelt before a battered stone statue at the very back of the shrine and bowed their heads in oath.]

[At that moment, a tiny figure held onto the threshold and poked his delicately carved little face inside to peek.]

[He had a pair of large, dark, sparkling eyes, like obsidian soaked in clear water, blinking brightly.]

[Seeing the two men's actions, his eyes brimmed with curiosity.]

[His adorably innocent appearance was enough to melt anyone's heart.]

Th-This...

Was this Tang Chuan?

White World Tang San's counterpart?

Everyone looked at Tang San's ordinary appearance, then at the breathtakingly beautiful child in the projection.

Their eyes were filled with shock and astonishment.

"Wow, this kid is really handsome!"

Xie Yue could not help but praise him before grinning teasingly at his sister beside him.

"Nana, what do you think? I told you Tang Chuan would definitely be your type... Huh? Nana, why is your face so red?"

"Ah!!"

Hu Liena snapped back to her senses, feeling her cheeks grow warm. She raised her little hands and lightly fanned both sides of her face. "I-Is it? Is my face that red? Maybe it's just too hot today. Hehe."

Yet Xie Yue said nothing, his gaze brimming with amusement.

The moment Hu Liena saw it, she crossed her arms and gave a proud little snort, stubbornly insisting, "Please, he's a child. Children are naturally lovable when they're cute. So what if I like him? Can't you see even my teacher's expression has softened?"

"Besides, just because he looks good as a child doesn't mean anyone knows what he'll look like when he grows up. Maybe he'll grow up ugly."

Suddenly,

Yan, who had left at some point, came running back with an umbrella in his arms.

Xie Yue subconsciously asked, "Where did you go just now?"

Yan gave a silly grin. "Didn't Nana say it was too hot? So I went to find an umbrella."

Hu Liena: "..."

Xie Yue: "..."

He shook his head helplessly.

Brother, being a simp won't get you a house.

[Little Tang Chuan seriously memorized the conversation between the two men, then quickly ran toward the back mountain.]

[Having sensed Little Tang Chuan's approach long ago, Lan Yin returned to her Blue Silver Emperor true form and waited at the cave entrance for his arrival.]

["Blue Silver Grass, Blue Silver Grass!" Tang Chuan soon ran to Lan Yin's side, panting from exhaustion.]

[Lan Yin had intended to fetch him some tea from nearby.]

[But Tang Chuan did not give her the chance. He directly pulled the bewildered Lan Yin into the cave, then arranged stones into the shape of a little person.]

[Lan Yin was deeply confused.]

[She had no idea what Tang Chuan intended to do!]

["Lan Yin, I heard that the best friends choose to become sworn brothers. I want to swear brotherhood with you too."]

[Lan Yin was horrified. She wanted to turn and leave, but Tang Chuan held onto her tightly. Afraid to forcefully break free, she could only keep shaking her head.]

[Tang Chuan tilted his head in confusion, but he quickly understood.]

["I get it. You're a girl, so we can't be brothers—we should be siblings instead, right? Then let's hurry up and begin."]

[Lan Yin shook her head even harder.]

[Unfortunately, Tang Chuan ignored her completely.]

[He directly pressed her shoulders and had her kneel before the stone figure, then began bowing with her.]

["Heaven above, earth below bear witness."]

["I, Tang Chuan, and my good friend, Blue Silver Grass."]

["Though we bear different surnames, we now become siblings."]

["We shall work together as one, aid the poor and rescue those in danger, serve our nation above, and protect the common people below."]

["We do not ask to be born on the same year, month, and day."]

["But we ask to die on the same year, month, and day."]

["Should either of us betray this oath, may both Heaven and mankind condemn us."]

[With the oath ceremony complete.]

[Tang Chuan looked contentedly at the Blue Silver Grass beside him, only to find her standing there in a daze, unable to recover for a long while.]

[Seeing this, Tang Chuan could not help but sigh inwardly: *Look how happy she is. She's so happy she can't even speak.*]
