The Destruction God King, hidden in the void, could no longer hold back and leaped out.

"Bold of you, Tang San!"

The Destruction God King took a step forward. His black robes billowed, his eyes blazing with majestic fury, and his voice shook the heavens.

"The iron laws of the Divine Realm strictly forbid Gods from privately spying on or interfering with the trajectories of lower-realm beings! Just now, you intended to send out your divine sense to investigate the Douluo Plane, planning to interfere in lower-realm affairs!"

"You were caught red-handed, and the evidence is irrefutable! You knowingly broke the law and disregarded the rules of the Divine Realm. Today, I will apprehend you according to the law, confine you in the Divine Realm prison, and make you reflect on your sins!"

Tang San's expression instantly darkened.

He turned around, his expression calm, though his tone carried a trace of grievance and righteous rebuttal.

"Destruction God King, surely you are exaggerating. I merely wished to look back upon the road I had traveled. I never truly interfered with any lower-realm affairs, so how could I have violated the laws of the Divine Realm?"

"It was only a glance. How does that count as knowingly breaking the law?"

"Could it be that, in the eyes of the God King, I, Tang San, am targeted everywhere and slandered at every turn simply because I am a newly ascended God King?"

His words sounded lofty and righteous, as though he had suffered endless exclusion and deliberate harassment from the older generation of God Kings.

The Destruction God King's anger flared even more fiercely. He laughed in fury. "What a silver tongue!"

"I saw everything clearly from start to finish! I originally came only to play with Xiaoqi, yet I happened upon such despicable conduct from you. The evidence is right before us, and you still dare to twist the truth and falsely accuse me?"

"Do you think I would not dare punish you?"

A cold glint flashed through Tang San's eyes. True anger had already risen within him, but his face still bore a hint of restraint. "Since the Destruction God King insists that I violated the rules and keeps targeting me... what if I refuse to accept it?"

The instant his words fell!

Buzz!

Brilliant blue-gold divine light bloomed!

The Sea God's Trident appeared in Tang San's palm.

"I, Tang San, am the Law-Enforcement God of the Divine Realm. I have always acted with integrity and a clear conscience. If the God King insists on forcing a conviction upon me, then let our hands decide the truth!"

Seeing that Tang San actually intended to resist with force, a savage light surged in the Destruction God King's eyes.

"Stubborn to the end! Since you refuse to repent and rely on your strength to act arrogantly, I shall properly teach you today what the rules of the Divine Realm are!"

Destruction drew out the Destruction Staff.

Terrifying power of destruction erupted in full, sending the winds and clouds of heaven and earth churning backward.

"Today, I will beat you into submission!"

Before his words had even faded, the two God Kings began fighting instantly!

"Golden Thirteen Halberds, Unfixed Storm!"

Blue-gold divine light filled the sky, weaving together into a chaotic and disorderly spatial domain. Distorted power of time and space instantly enveloped the Destruction God King.

The corners of Tang San's lips lifted slightly.

As long as he held him for those brief eight seconds, he could crush the battle with his following chain of attacks!

Yet in the next instant, a scene that overturned Tang San's understanding suddenly unfolded!

Terrifying purple-black lightning abruptly erupted from the Destruction Staff!

Annihilation Divine Thunder poured down. Its utterly tyrannical destructive power forcibly tore apart the imprisoning space of Unfixed Storm!

"Such a paltry trick, and you think you can trap me? Laughable!"

The Destruction God King sneered coldly, his eyes filled with indifference.

Before Tang San could react, the Destruction Staff swung once more!

Purple-black divine thunder flooded down from the heavens, engulfing Tang San's entire body!

Crackle!

Terrifying Annihilation Divine Thunder coiled around Tang San. Tyrannical destructive currents pierced through his divine armor, leaving his entire body numb, his blood and energy churning, and waves of stabbing pain coursing through him!

Tang San's pupils contracted sharply, his face filled with disbelief!

How was this possible?!

His Unfixed Storm had actually been broken so easily?

Moreover, Destruction's power was several times more terrifying than he had imagined!

In his haste, Tang San gritted his teeth and fought on, activating supreme divine skills in succession!

"Millennia of Empty Tranquility!"

Golden clouds of light swept across the skies.

Yet a storm of destruction surged forth, black destructive currents forcibly swallowing every golden halberd shadow. Before that terrifying destructive power, Millennia of Empty Tranquility shattered outright!

"Never Return!"

The Sea God's Trident transformed into another beam of ultimate golden light and cleaved toward Destruction!

Yet the absolute gap in realm and accumulated foundation was like an insurmountable heavenly chasm!

The Destruction God King casually swung his staff, unleashing devastation upon heaven and earth!

An enormous black-and-blue sphere of destructive lightning formed in midair. Carrying an endless storm of destruction, it crashed down with a thunderous boom!

The terrifying explosion resounded throughout the entire Sea God Airspace!

All of Tang San's attacks were instantly crushed and torn apart!

The destructive lightning sphere struck him, and Tang San was viciously suppressed by that violent divine power of destruction.

Tang San was blasted flying. Lightning scars covered his divine body, numbness coursed through him in waves, his aura became instantly disordered, and he was suppressed so thoroughly that he could not even raise his head!

The Destruction God King stood where he was, sneering inwardly.

Serves you right for being so arrogant!

Before, I merely respected my elders and cared for the young, leaving some dignity for you, a newly ascended God King.

Yet you pushed your luck, truly thinking you could stand on equal footing with an established God King and contend with me?

So what if you possess two Gods in one body?

The difference in a God King's foundation and accumulated power is not something talent can make up for!

Such an earth-shaking battle between God Kings instantly alarmed the entire Sea God Temple.

Xiao Wu, who had originally been waiting within the hall, sensed the terrifying collision of divine powers outside. Her expression changed dramatically, and she hurriedly flashed out.

The moment she stepped through the temple gates, she saw Tang San being suppressed by Annihilation Divine Thunder and retreating in defeat. Her eyes instantly reddened.

"Destruction God King! Stop!"

Xiao Wu flashed in front of Tang San, her face filled with anger as she shouted, "Why are you bullying Third Brother?!"

"Third Brother has always worked tirelessly and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the Divine Realm. Why do you keep targeting him and even resort to hurting him?"

The commotion quickly drew Gods from all corners of the Divine Realm.

Many first-class and second-class Gods stopped in the air, watching this rare confrontation between God Kings from afar. Their faces were filled with shock as they whispered among themselves, all eager to watch the spectacle.

No one had expected that the two God Kings of the Divine Realm Committee, who had always appeared harmonious on the surface, would tear away all pretenses and fight openly!

The Destruction God King glanced at Xiao Wu, the anger in his eyes easing somewhat.

For Tang Wutong's sake, he did not wish to argue with Xiao Wu. He merely rebuked her coldly, "Xiao Wu, step aside! This matter has nothing to do with you!"

"Tang San knowingly broke the law and refused to reform despite repeated warnings. I caught him red-handed, and today I must punish him according to the laws of the Divine Realm!"

As his words fell, the Destruction God King raised a hand and slashed through the air. A transparent light screen unfolded once more.

Upon it, the scene of Tang San opening a view of the lower realm and preparing to interfere with it through his divine sense replayed clearly, every movement displayed in full.

Every scene was crystal clear. The evidence was irrefutable!

Pointing at the light screen, the Destruction God King thundered, "Tang San, the evidence is conclusive. What else do you have to say?!"

Tang San, usually refined and elegant, now had bloodshot eyes and breathed heavily.

At that moment, he had completely marked the Destruction God King as someone who must die.

This old stubborn fool has repeatedly ruined my plans, humiliated me in public, and undermined me!

I will remember this grudge!

As the surrounding Gods looked at the irrefutable evidence on the light screen, then at the defeated and disheveled Tang San, they instantly understood what had happened. Low murmurs rose one after another.

"So Tang San, the Law-Enforcement God, privately spied on the lower realm..."

"No wonder the Destruction God King was so furious. The Divine Realm most forbids Gods from interfering with the trajectories of lower realms."

"Knowingly breaking the law... there really is no defending that."
