Self-Abuse Domain, Tang San Was Moved to Tears!

He had short, gray hair, thick eyebrows, and deep-set eyes. His features were square and stern, and his brows carried the gravitas unique to a sect leader.

Ye Hua then took out a dark gray robe and changed into it, which added to his weathered appearance.

"Ahem!" Ye Hua adjusted his voice and raised an eyebrow at Hu Liena.

Never seen this before, have you?

[Thousand Faces], terrifying indeed!

Ye Hua walked directly through the woods, unhurriedly, toward Tang San.

Tang San's laughter stopped abruptly.

He turned his head sharply, and his pupils trembled when he saw the familiar figure.

"Uncle?!"

Tang San was filled with unbelievable joy.

He practically scrambled forward, his knees buckling as he nearly collapsed to his knees.

Ye Hua raised his hand in a gesture of support, stopping him from moving.

"Uncle! What are you doing here?! What are you doing here?!"

Tang San's eyes felt hot.

He spent over a year struggling and fighting his Slaughter City!

Countless times I struggled on the verge of death!

Countless times I thought I was going to die in that dark, sunless place!

He never expected that when he crawled out of that hellish place, he would be greeted by Tang Xiao, the sect leader of the Clear Sky Sect and his Tang Xiao!

"I figured the time was about right, so I came to pick you up." [Tang Xiao] nodded slightly. "You certainly didn't disappoint your uncle."

Tang San's chest suddenly puffed out.

He opened his arms, and a murderous aura emanated from him, making even the surrounding air feel heavy.

"Look! Uncle! My Divine Slaughter's Domain!"

Tang San raised his chin, waiting for Tang Xiao's praise.

[Tang Xiao] paused for a moment, then slowly sighed.

That sigh was filled with both relief and nostalgia.

"Yes, it looks like it..."

Just like your father back then.

Tang San stopped breathing.

He stared blankly at Tang Xiao's profile, his nose stinging with tears.

"Uncle..."

"Your father was just as spirited when he broke out of the Slaughter City," [Tang Xiao] said with the kindness of an elder. "You're even faster than him back then."

Tang San's lips curled into a wide smile.

He clenched his fists. "Uncle, I will definitely surpass Ye Hua!"

"Once I fully master the domain, I'll go and take my revenge!"

"No rush," but the person in front of him raised a hand and pressed it on his shoulder, "You're not qualified yet."

Tang San's smile froze, but it was quickly replaced by emotion.

His uncle was doing it for his own good!

My uncle was afraid he would act impulsively and get himself killed!

"I know, Uncle!" Tang San nodded emphatically, "But I will catch up with him! I definitely will!"

Tang Xiao nodded slightly, then took out a ball of light from his sleeve.

The sphere of light was entirely grayish-white, with strange patterns flowing across its surface.

"What is this?" Tang San asked curiously, leaning closer.

"This is a condensed realm," [Tang Xiao] fabricated without batting an eye, "Something I stumbled upon during my travels in my early years."

Concentrated Area?

Unheard of.

Tang San frowned.

Are there really such rare things in the world?

I have a feeling something's fishy going on!

Moreover, his ability to quickly traverse the Slaughter City was, to put it bluntly, due to his great-grandfather's assistance in taming his murderous aura.

Otherwise, even if he fought a hundred matches, it would still take him a year to stabilize his killing intent and prevent it from getting out of control!

How did my uncle know that he would receive help from my great-grandfather and that a good day would be waiting for him? It doesn't make sense!

Seeing his wariness, Ye Hua secretly clicked his tongue in surprise.

That's right, you learn from your mistakes, and Tang San is getting smart too.

But aren't you underestimating my baby?

[Thousand Faces] is Level 8 Soul Tool; below the Super Douluo, no one can see its true appearance.

It can disguise one's face, temperament, and even Martial Soul and Soul Ring!

"Xiao San," he revealed his Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul, "Let me see your Martial Soul."

Tang San's doubts vanished instantly upon seeing the Clear Sky Hammer.

Is there anything more real in the world than Martial Soul?

He obediently revealed the Clear Sky Hammer, Ye Hua glanced at it and discovered that there were actually blood patterns on the Clear Sky Hammer!

"Good," [Tang Xiao] nodded with satisfaction, "Your field is very solid, which means you have a good foundation!"

"I tried to integrate this condensed realm, but it wasn't recognized. I can only wait for the right person to join me."

Tang San's eyes suddenly lit up. "Uncle, can I give it a try?"

"No problem!"

He received an affirmative answer.

"Consider this gift your uncle's early congratulatory present for your successful completion of your training!"

"Of course, it's also your birthday present. I hope you like it."

"Uncle..." Tang San's throat tightened, "I... I..."

"Stop talking nonsense, absorb it." [Tang Xiao] stood with his hands behind his back, his lips twitching.

Fortunately, Tang San was so moved that he didn't pay attention to the details.

He sniffed hard and pressed the ball of light against his chest.

A grayish-white color spread out, enveloping him.

A feeling of comfort welled up inside me!

Tang San was so engrossed in the joy of his increased strength that he didn't notice the people next to him covering their mouths and chuckling.

After about half an hour, the light faded.

Tang San opened his eyes, his expression bright and alert.

This is actually a rare Amplification Domain!

It can also overlap and expand into other fields!

What a stroke of luck!

He couldn't wait to activate his new domain and the Divine Slaughter's Domain, wanting to experience the amplification.

However, the instant the grayish-white killing intent spread from beneath his feet—

"Well?!"

A piercing itch shot up my spine, as if a thousand ants were gnawing at my bone marrow!

Tang San froze instantly, followed by a sharp, needle-like pain that exploded from within his body!

"Aaaaaah--!!!"

He screamed in agony, collapsed to his knees, his clothes soaked with cold sweat.

"W-What's going on?!"

Tang San frantically tried to control his domain, but the itching and pain not only didn't subside, but became even more intense as his Soul Power circulated.

He rolled around on the ground like a live fish thrown into a vat of boiling oil.

He scratched his arms wildly with both hands, his fingernails scratching his skin until it bled.

"Uncle! Uncle, save me!"

He howled hoarsely, tears streaming down his face, as he crawled toward [Tang Xiao].

Then he saw--

The face that belonged to Tang Xiao, the sect leader of the Clear Sky Sect, was rippling like water.

His short, gray hair turned jet black, and his deep-set face became younger.

Even that kind gaze turned into a mocking one.

[Tang Xiao] raised his hand and slowly removed his mask.

Happy birthday, Tang San.

Tang San's mind went blank.

He stared intently at that face, so close to his own.

From Notting City to Shrek, from the Soul Master Tournament to the Slaughter City!

That face appeared in his nightmares countless times!

Every time, it was accompanied by a smile that evoked despair!

"Ye... Ye Hua?!"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"How do you possess the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul?!"

His voice was filled with madness!

He was clearly very cautious!

But they were still tricked!

"Surprised?" Ye Hua tilted his head. "My dear fellow townsman, my lovely student!"

"I've been preparing this birthday present for over half a year."

Tang San's teeth chattered. "What on earth is that?!"
