"Damn it, what kind of movement technique is this guy using? It looks a little like that Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track Bei Bei knows, but it's not quite the same. And how is his Blue Silver Grass so tough?!"
Before Xu Sanshi knew it, the Blue Silver Emperor had pinned him in place!
Boom-!
Just as Xu Sanshi was about to break free of the Blue Silver Emperor, Tang Chuan struck in an instant. As his palm blasted Xu Sanshi back, surging life energy suddenly erupted from the Blue Silver Emperor.
Second Soul Skill, Life Collapse!
Tang Chuan gave a low shout in his mind.
Immediately afterward, an invisible life magnetic field enveloped Xu Sanshi. His face turned pale, and he realized he had capsized in a gutter.
This pretty boy who didn't look like much...
Was actually this powerful!
"This is... a domain?!"
Xu Sanshi couldn't help crying out in shock. He felt that his life force was not merely draining away slowly-it was even beginning to slip out of his control.
And this so-called loss of control over his life force...
Was an extremely unusual state of collapse. Xu Sanshi found his energy falling into disorder, and he could no longer even control his own body. Meanwhile, his draining life force kept strengthening the Blue Silver Emperor.
"What a terrifying ability!"
Xu Sanshi's expression changed drastically.
He wanted to smash the Blue Silver Emperor apart and attack Tang Chuan himself, only to see the Blue Silver Emperor condense into a heavy hammer in Tang Chuan's hand and come crashing toward him.
"Holy shit!"
Xu Sanshi roared.
He had never seen anyone fucking use Blue Silver Grass as a hammer before! What kind of fighting style was this?
Tang Ya was stunned too.
Before meeting Tang Chuan, she admitted that she had only known how to use Blue Silver Grass to entangle opponents. She had never imagined that its own special properties could be used to form different weapons and develop different ways to attack.
Bang-!
Tang Chuan drove Xu Sanshi back with one hammer blow. His gaze was sharp, yet he remained confident and composed as he appeared beside Xu Sanshi again.
Xu Sanshi raised his shield to block.
But a stalk of Blue Silver Emperor suddenly bloomed in Tang Chuan's hand, slamming into the Xuanming Shield with tremendous penetrating force and knocking Xu Sanshi back again and again.
"Hmph..."
Just as Xu Sanshi was about to go berserk.
Jiang Nannan's cold snort suddenly sounded behind him. Xu Sanshi's expression stiffened. After immediately shooting Tang Chuan a vicious glare, he ran over to coax Jiang Nannan.
"This is practically an old man toying with a naughty child!"
Tang Ya was the first to recover, crying out in shock.
Xu Sanshi was one of the best in the outer court, and was even known as its strongest defense. Yet in Tang Chuan's hands, he was nothing more than a newborn calf.
"Teacher, thank you."
Huo Yuhao came up to Tang Chuan and thanked him respectfully.
"What are you thanking me for?"
"Just put some extra chili on my grilled fish."
Tang Chuan chuckled.
He hadn't actually intended to settle who was stronger between him and Xu Sanshi. He had merely wanted to get used to his current strength. Once he had a rough understanding of his power, there was no need to keep fighting.
"Yes, Teacher!"
Huo Yuhao smiled too and hurried off to grill the fish.
What none of them knew was that, in the night sky not far away, Mu En had narrowed his eyes slightly, seemingly having watched the entire fight.
"That wasn't ordinary Blue Silver Grass. It was Blue Silver Emperor..."
Mu En's voice trembled as he exclaimed in shock.
How could he fail to recognize Blue Silver Emperor? What shocked him even more, however, was that in this era, when not a single Blue Silver Emperor could be found anywhere on the continent...
One had actually appeared!
"Is he really..."
Late that night.
After Tang Chuan, Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, Tang Ya, and Bei Bei, who had arrived later, had eaten their fill, they headed back to their respective dormitories. Huo Yuhao said goodbye to Tang Chuan, while Tang Chuan planned to return to the Tang Sect to rest.
Halfway there, he stopped.
"Come out."
The space around him seemed to fall still. Then Mu En's stooped figure slowly emerged from the darkness. He said nothing, watching Tang Chuan with a complicated expression.
"Senior... is the Martial Soul you possess the Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul?"
The way Mu En addressed Tang Chuan had already changed.
"Yes."
Tang Chuan answered frankly. It seemed he couldn't keep a low profile now even if he wanted to. Still, that was fine. If he could make Mu En believe he was Tang San, he would more or less be able to do as he pleased at Shrek.
It would save him a great deal of trouble.
"Senior, just who are you...?"
Mu En asked again.
Tang Chuan seemed to have no intention of keeping up the act any longer. He looked at Mu En before him, and his gaze sharpened.
Boom-!
Surging life force and violent power erupted simultaneously. Under Mu En's stunned, astonished gaze, Tang Chuan released both his Martial Souls, the Clear Sky Hammer and the Blue Silver Emperor. Mysterious Heaven Skill inner power flowed around him, and his bearing was extraordinary.
"I am Tang San."
Tang Chuan spoke without a change in expression.
Mu En's gaze seemed to freeze on the Clear Sky Hammer and the Blue Silver Emperor. Throughout all of history, only one person had possessed these two Martial Souls!
Only one.
"You... really are Ancestor Tang San? But back then, Ancestor, you..."
Mu En was utterly astonished.
"Times have changed. The Tang Sect I founded single-handedly has gradually withered amid those changes. As a God King, I should also understand how the Douluo Continent has changed. So I cast aside my identity as a God King, took the name Tang Chuan, and began walking the Douluo Continent once more."
Tang Chuan's expression became deeply wistful. With his hands clasped behind his back, he slowly walked up to the Tang Sect Residence and raised his eyes to the two characters spelling out "Tang Sect."
"..."
Mu En understood completely.
At last, he knew why Tang Chuan's Soul Power felt so weak, yet his bearing was so extraordinary...
And why he even possessed the Blue Silver Emperor and the Clear Sky Hammer!
"Mu En pays his respects to you, Ancestor."
Mu En spoke solemnly.
"There's no need for that. My identity now is merely Tang Chuan. I only wish to lead these children in rebuilding the Tang Sect."
Tang Chuan smiled faintly, signaling that Mu En need not act that way. As Mu En believed him, the system's voice sounded in his mind.
["I am Lord Tang Wang" lie credibility: 15%] [Host received rewards: Blue Silver Emperor evolution progress 20%, Soul Power increased by one level, Life Attribute External Soul Bone (only the host may absorb it)]
A Life-System External Soul Bone?
Tang Chuan was startled inwardly. This thing really had been prepared specifically for him. It seemed he couldn't give absolutely everything to Huo Yuhao and the others...
"Yes, Ancestor."
Mu En nodded.
"I have no intention of revealing my identity, but I don't want to face restrictions everywhere at Shrek, either. I think you should know what to do. Sorry for the trouble."
Tang Chuan smiled gently, adopting a humble manner, yet it stirred Mu En's heart...
He hurriedly shook his head.
"This is what I ought to do, Ancestor."
Tang Chuan nodded in satisfaction, turned, and walked into the Tang Sect, while Mu En watched his retreating figure with an excited expression.
