Furious Showdown with Tang San: Tang San Overload

His eyes changed completely, and so did his entire bearing.

For one thing, the moment the sudden change struck, he hurled Long Yeyue away.

He did not even glance at her.

That alone proved this was no longer Chen Xinjie. Those were a god's eyes, a god's presence.

And the trident meant Tang San had descended from the Divine Realm.

Using Chen Xinjie's body and the Sea God Helmet, a divine artifact,

his will crossed the barrier between the Divine Realm and Douluo Continent, then crossed the Temporal Turbulence

to truly descend upon Douluo Continent.

Tang San had passed down the Sea God Trident, along with half his soul.

That gave him the strength of a First-Class God at the very least.

The moment he appeared, he shrugged off Douluo Continent's pressure and unleashed a terrifying divine presence.

Boundless Vast Sea Divine Power rippled outward in wave after wave.

The aftershocks alone left the assembled top-tier experts struggling to breathe.

Baby Dragon's face fell the instant he saw what was happening.

Damn it, that bastard Tang San doesn't play fair!

He had descended despite the risk of losing the God Realm Center.

Douluo Continent clearly meant something extraordinary to him.

This kind of divine descent could not last long, and there probably would not be a second time.

Chen Xinjie's body could not withstand another descent.

After all, Chen Xinjie was not Tang San's son. Without Tang San's bloodline, how could he serve as a vessel?

That trace of Sea God blood was barely enough to manage it once.

But once was plenty to give Baby Dragon a headache.

He definitely could not win a fight, and he could not afford to die here.

In that case, he had only one option: call for backup.

As if you're the only one with someone powerful behind you.

Baby Dragon immediately contacted Lin Yuan in the Divine Examination Mysterious Space.

The Divine Examination Mysterious Space lay somewhere between Douluo Continent, the Temporal Turbulence, and the Divine Realm.

Baby Dragon transmitted all his memories to him.

Lin Yuan was refining the details of the Divine Examination.

When he sensed Baby Dragon's message, he assumed the field inspection was over and prepared to receive the information.

But after taking in every memory, he was stunned.

Shrek got blown up?

He stared at the smoking ruins in the memory fragments,

his mouth twitching.

Were the people of Douluo Continent really this quick to act?

How long had it been since I announced the Divine Examination?

And they'd already blown it up?

Just how hated was Shrek?

That was the only way it could have ended up with everyone turning on it.

Sure enough, people could not afford to be too arrogant.

If the heavens did not punish them for it, other people would.

Shrek had brought this on itself. All he had done was speed things along.

The change had come too suddenly.

Fortunately, the Divine Examination was open to all Shrek students across Douluo Continent.

Losing one Shrek academy was of little consequence.

What truly surprised him were two other developments:

Ah Yin, the Blue Silver Emperor, had been blown up, and Tang Hao had been killed too.

Damn. Three hits at once—a triple stroke of good fortune.

Tang Hao's death had been particularly gruesome, though. Baby Dragon had tortured him to death,

slicing him apart bit by bit.

Lin Yuan rubbed his chin. Was the Golden Dragon King really that vicious?

Since arriving in this world, he had kept the Golden Dragon King's evil impulses in check.

How had a Baby Dragon clone he had casually split off managed to do something so outrageous?

Still... why does it feel kind of satisfying?

He could not help it. People like Tang Hao were the ones he despised most.

He was glad Tang Hao was dead, and the worse his death, the more satisfying it felt.

But satisfaction aside, the situation had now escalated.

In the memories, Tang San had not wasted a word on Baby Dragon. He had raised his hand and unleashed Unfixed Storm.

The memories cut off there, but Lin Yuan was certain Baby Dragon had been immobilized.

He knew exactly what was going on.

With the Dragon-Slaying Blade, killing Tang Hao had been easy for Baby Dragon.

After all, Lin Yuan knew Tang Hao could not draw on the plane's power whenever he pleased.

He could use it only when fighting an outside invader.

Under normal circumstances, he was merely the so-called strongest man on Douluo Continent—trash who was not even a god.

It would have been strange if Baby Dragon could not kill him.

But Tang San was in an entirely different league.

Even Lin Yuan had no good way to deal with him.

He had not expected Tang San to be capable of descending to the mortal world. That was his mistake.

He should have remembered Chen Xinjie. The man still had the Sea God Helmet.

Even so, Tang San must have been driven close to losing his head.

The Divine Realm was at a critical point in its struggle against the Temporal Turbulence, yet he had dared to descend.

Tang San really was one devoted son!

Then again, it made sense.

Having grown up starved of affection, he had finally gotten both his parents back. How could he bear to watch them die before his eyes?

He had wanted to save them at the last possible moment.

But with Tang Hao dead, all that remained of the Blue Silver Emperor was her soul.

Under the laws of the universe, a god could retrieve someone from the Netherworld after they died.

But if a god killed them, there was nothing to retrieve from the Netherworld.

Baby Dragon had killed Tang Hao. His soul was gone for good,

and Tang San could forget about resurrecting him.

That left only the Blue Silver Emperor for Tang San to save.

Should I let him have her?

That was the question.

Tang San had even brought out the Sea God Trident.

If they fought head-on, this clone would almost certainly be destroyed.

He could call Tang San a hypocrite and condemn his character,

but there was no denying his strength.

He had been handed Dual God Positions. Nothing was more powerful than an official cheat.

Tang San was the darling of the story. Of course his stats had to be absurd.

But Lin Yuan could not bear to lose this clone. It was the first one he had made, and he had poured a vast amount of Soul Power into it. He could not just throw it away.

That meant he would have to step in personally.

Lin Yuan's gaze turned cold, and his soul descended into Baby Dragon.

Truthfully, he had wanted to come anyway. There was something he needed to do,

and he could take care of it while he was here.

His Link Panel came with his soul.

Baby Dragon was now Lin Yuan himself.

He looked up at Tang San.

"Tang San, didn't you say gods couldn't interfere with the mortal world?

So why are you down here?

You're an Enforcer, yet you're breaking the very rules you enforce?

Have you no shame?"

"Golden Dragon King! It's you!

You've descended? You're not dead!"

"That's right. It's me."

At Lin Yuan's confirmation, Tang San's eyes turned bloodshot, and he breathed like a bull.

"I'll kill you! You dared to cause my mother's death, and my father's too!

And you dared to send gods down to disrupt the mortal world! You've broken the Divine Realm's rules. You've brought death upon yourself!"

Lin Yuan laughed at Tang San's words.

He clutched his belly with his little dragon claws and burst out laughing.

"Tang San, do you hear yourself?

Sending gods down without permission? Weren't you the one who started that?

How did those parents of yours, the ones who just died, get down here?

You know perfectly well, don't you?

What, are you an orphan now?

They've barely died, and you're already pretending you don't know them?

You sent your own parents down to interfere with the mortal world. You've practically turned Douluo Continent into your family's backyard.

And now you're telling me gods can't interfere with the mortal world?

So the rules are for everyone else, while you lot can break them whenever you please?

You say I sent someone down first? Then what did I just kill—a couple of dogs or a pair of ghosts?"

"Golden Dragon King! How dare you insult my parents!"

Tang San's eyes were bloodshot, and he breathed like a bull.

He was nearly mad with rage.
