"Then we can't let him go even more," the Evil God King said resolutely. "I want to see what kind of trouble he can stir up."
"Hmm." The other three God King nodded as well. " Asura, when do you plan to set off?" the Destruction God King asked. "No rush. I plan to leave the Divine Realm immediately after killing Wan Jun Yi. I need to make some preparations, which will take some time," the Asura God said calmly.
"For how long?"
"One year, perhaps. Once my successor completes the Asura Eighth Trial, I can depart in peace," the Asura God said slowly. "One year?" The Destruction God King nodded. "Do you need the assistance of the Seven Deadly Sins Gods? Though they are not at the level of God King, their combined Seven Sins Divine Punishment is comparable to God King's full-force attack; perhaps it can help you." "No need, Destruction, are you underestimating me? Even without my Asura God Position, my strength is far beyond that of First-Level God."
The Asura God smiled slightly and said, "Alright, now that the decision has been made, everyone should prepare." The God King of Goodness stood up and said calmly. The figures of the Five Great God Kings gradually disappeared from the hall, leaving only moonlight on the ground.
Meanwhile, in the lower realm, billions of miles away from the Divine Realm, a beam of red light quietly descended into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, transforming into a handsome man in a red robe. The moment he landed, an endless red light erupted from his body, and he immediately fell unconscious. Many within the sect noticed his presence and rushed to the source of the red light, finding the man disheveled and unconscious.
"He is Tang San!" The elder's words shocked everyone. They rushed forward and carried Tang San back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School's residence. Tang San, who was unconscious, felt as if his body was being torn apart by an invisible force. It was an indescribable feeling, as if his soul was being ripped apart. This was the backlash he suffered from forcibly increasing his strength.
Suddenly, a red light shone from between his brows, a thin crack shooting out from within, adding a touch of heroic spirit to his features. Immediately afterward, his body began to change, his muscles surging like waves, and a powerful aura swept out like a storm.
"This is... the power of a god?" Tang San murmured, his mind hazy. Yes, he sensed the aura of a god, an incomparably powerful and majestic force. He didn't know how all this had happened, nor why he had suddenly acquired divine power.
" The Asura Eighth Trial has been changed due to external reasons, and is now to be held one year later, to assist Lu Tian in killing Jun Yi."
"Who is Lu Tian...?"
Immediately afterwards, Tang San's consciousness sank into endless darkness.
During his unconsciousness, time seemed to lose its meaning, and when he awoke again, he had no idea how much time had passed. He found himself lying on a soft bed, surrounded by an elegant environment, seemingly in a room. Tang San sat up, feeling that his body seemed more solid than before, and filled with immense power.
He was puzzled. Was it all a dream? He moved his head slightly and saw Ning Fengzhi sitting on a chair to the side, sighing and holding his forehead. Ning Fengzhi looked extremely pained. His aunt, Tang Yuehua, was also sitting next to Ning Fengzhi, with the same pained expression and tearful eyes. She was completely different from her previous noble and elegant demeanor.
" Uncle Ning, Aunt, what happened?" Tang San slowly sat up and asked curiously. Ning Fengzhi looked up at Tang San, a hint of heartache flashing in her eyes, " Xiao San, you're awake."
" Xiao San!" Tang Yuehua rushed forward and hugged Tang San tightly. "Child, I'm so glad you're alright, so glad you're alright."
"What happened? Uncle Ning, how did you escape from Jun Yi's clutches?" Tang San asked doubtfully.
" Jun Yi himself let me come back." Ning Fengzhi sighed softly, then looked at Tang San with a pained expression and said, " Xiao San, I'm sorry."
" Uncle Ning, what's wrong?" Tang San looked at Ning Fengzhi's appearance and couldn't help but feel worried.
" Xiao San, your father, your teacher, and your uncle, they are all... all dead." Ning Fengzhi's voice trembled slightly.
Tang San's head buzzed, and he felt his thoughts freeze for a moment, as if the whole world had collapsed. His body swayed involuntarily, and his face turned pale. He clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his palms, bringing a sharp pain. Then he grabbed Ning Fengzhi's shoulder, his eyes bloodshot, staring intently at Ning Fengzhi.
Tang San was very strong. His fingernails pierced Ning Fengzhi's shoulder, and blood gradually stained Ning Fengzhi's blue robe.
" Xiao San, calm down," Tang Yuehua called out anxiously from the side.
Tang San took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, then slowly released Ning Fengzhi's shoulder and asked in a low voice, "What exactly happened?" Ning Fengzhi sighed and said, "After you left, many things happened on the continent."
Ning Fengzhi told Tang San everything that had happened during this period, and then proceeded to tell Tang San another version of the "Feast at Hongmen".
"Yesterday's banquet was originally intended to test whether Jun Yi's attitude leaned towards the Spirit Hall or His Majesty Qinghe, and we all wanted to know the extent of his strength. The atmosphere was quite good at the beginning, but suddenly, everyone was poisoned."
At this point, Ning Fengzhi sighed again.
"Was this poison administered by Jun Yi?" Tang San asked doubtfully. "No, given Jun Yi's strength, he wouldn't need to use poison to deal with you."
"That's right, the person who poisoned them wasn't Jun Yi, but the mole who has been lurking within the Alliance all along."
A cold glint flashed in Tang San's eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Who is the traitor?"
Ning Fengzhi shook his head slightly. "We don't know either. The Alliance has investigated many times, but we still haven't found the mole."
"He was the one who poisoned yesterday's banquet. Everyone was completely weak and had lost all their Soul Power, unable to move at all. During that time, Bibi Dong came to the banquet and took Rongrong away. We also learned that the poison that others suffered was condensed by Bibi Dong."
"Did Bibi Dong kill my family?"
