"You dare insult me!" A Soul Saint's nose was almost crooked with rage.

When he heard that killing Chen Yuan would make him a god, he flew out of his clan's home without another word and headed for the village.

On the way, he heard Chen Yuan shout that everyone hunting him was a grandson, and he was so angry he was snorting through his nose.

"I'm furious!"

"I, a Soul Saint, have lived for so many years and swept all before me without rival. Who would dare say a word against me?"

"Pray I don't catch you. Otherwise, I'll torture you mercilessly before killing you and becoming a god."

The whole world was in an uproar. Countless Soul Masters and Soul Grandmasters were furious.

"This Chen Yuan has some nerve, calling those of us hunting him grandsons. If you ask me, he's the grandson."

"This junior has quite a mouth on him. Once we catch him, we'll heat a knife in a fire pit and cut out his tongue first." An older Soul Grandmaster's eyes gleamed with malice.

They had seen plenty of wickedness in human hearts, and they knew best how to kill people and deal with them.

"You dare insult me? You're courting death!" Qian Daoliu struck down with his palm, carrying the power of a Douluo-level Martial Soul, and blasted a massive boulder to pieces.

Qian Renxue said earnestly, "He didn't just insult you. He insulted me too, and everyone in Spirit Hall."

"Aren't you angry?" Qian Daoliu asked in surprise, looking back at her.

"Why should I be angry? He's about to die. Why get angry with a dead man?" Qian Renxue said lazily.

Qian Daoliu thought she was right, but an indescribable, stifling feeling was pent up in his chest, making him deeply uncomfortable.

In his anger, he blasted several large trees apart in succession.

"No, I can't bear holding this anger in. When we find him, I'll kill him," he said viciously.

Bibi Dong looked at Qian Daoliu without speaking. If you kill him and become a god, what about me?

An idea suddenly occurred to Chen Yuan. He looked at the heavenly screen with a wicked grin and shouted:

"Hey!"

"You can all hear me, right? Now, I'm going to tell you some earth-shattering news."

"Tang San, are you there?" he shouted.

"Tang San, he's calling for you," Xiao Wu said to Tang San.

Tang San said, "There are so many people named Tang San in the world. Who knows which one he means?"

"It can't be me. I don't even know him."

Xiao Wu said, "Maybe he knows you."

Dai Mubai said, "Let's hear what he has to say."

Bibi Dong was puzzled. "Who's Tang San?"

Chen Yuan was the one being hunted, so how had Tang San, a complete stranger, gotten involved?

Tang Hao was shocked. "He knows my child?"

Chen Yuan declared in a ringing voice, "I'm going to reveal the greatest secret in the world!"

"I'm telling you, Spirit Hall will be destroyed in the future!"

"What?" The whole world was horrified. Countless Soul Masters and Soul Grandmasters were collectively stunned.

Soul Elders flying in midair nearly fell from the sky.

"Spirit Hall will be destroyed?"

A young man had declared that the greatest power in the world, Spirit Hall, would face destruction in the future.

"Impossible. What a joke."

"Spirit Hall is acknowledged as the greatest power in the world. Who knows how many Soul Saints are scrambling to get in?" Everyone shook their heads.

They thought Chen Yuan was lying.

"We'll be destroyed?" Bibi Dong didn't believe it.

She knew better than anyone else how terrifying Spirit Hall was. It was without question the strongest power, both in the shadows and in the open.

"Who else in the world can compare to my Spirit Hall?"

"No one!"

"Unless it's a god."

And there were no living gods on the continent, only records of gods who had already departed.

Her gaze changed, turning sharp. "You dare disturb my peace of mind? You deserve to die."

Qian Daoliu, Qian Renxue, and the other Douluo didn't believe it either.

Qian Daoliu laughed heartily. "How ridiculous."

"Only those of us in Spirit Hall know how powerful it is. What could a down-and-out young man like him know?"

"Exactly," Ghost Douluo and the others chimed in.

Ning Rongrong asked, "Elder, do you believe Spirit Hall will be destroyed?"

Chen Xin said, "I do. Why wouldn't I? Things go to extremes, just as dynasties crumble and sects fall."

"Besides, Spirit Hall acts cruelly and has long stirred up widespread resentment across the continent. All it needs is the right opportunity, and I believe Spirit Hall can be wiped out."

He didn't know where that opportunity lay, either.

For now, Spirit Hall was still the strongest. Even the other powers combined were no match for it.

Chen Yuan pointed at the heavenly screen and continued his revelations:

"Heavenly screen!"

"You exposed the great secret that I, Chen Yuan, will become a god in ten days!"

"I'll use your exposure to expose people to the world."

"The first person I'm going to expose is Tang San!"

"He's the true culprit who destroys Spirit Hall!"

"Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, Qian Daoliu, you're all watching, aren't you?"

"Let me tell you."

"In the future, you'll be killed and crushed by the people Tang San leads. Some of you will die, and others will perish."

His words sent another violent shock through the Soul Masters of the world.

"Is that true?"

"Who's Tang San? He doesn't sound like he's lying."

"Does he have enough clout to destroy Spirit Hall?"

"Hmph!" Bibi Dong sneered. "It's impossible to destroy my Spirit Hall!"

She thought it over but couldn't recall anyone named Tang San.

Someone who wasn't even a Douluo wanted to destroy it? Dream on!

"Do you know Tang San?" Qian Daoliu asked a nearby Soul Saint.

The Soul Saint shook his head. "No."

Qian Daoliu asked several more people, but none of them knew Tang San.

"Strange. You already have control over several major powers, yet none of you knows him. Then who knows Tang San?"

He looked at Chen Yuan on the heavenly screen. "He wouldn't be lying, would he?"

"As I understand it, there's no one in the world who can destroy Spirit Hall. There never has been."

"No one will in the future, no one can now, and no one ever will."

Xiao Wu, Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, Ma Hongjun, and the others all turned to look at Tang San.

"It's not me." Tang San shook his head. "My name is Tang San."

"But I'm not the Tang San he says will destroy Spirit Hall."

"That's true," the others said. Although the Tang San before them was one of the Seven Monsters,

Spirit Hall was a giant that towered over the entire continent. How could they be a match for it?

Ning Rongrong tilted her head. "Tang San? I know him."

"He can destroy Spirit Hall in the future? Is that true?"

Chen Xin asked curiously, "Who is this Tang San you're talking about?"

Ning Rongrong told him how she had met Tang San and the others.

"He's a genius," she said.

"As for destroying Spirit Hall, I don't know."

That was difficult, almost impossible. The Douluo Continent had never lacked geniuses.

Chen Yuan shouted:

"Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, Qian Renxue, and all the Soul Masters, Soul Grandmasters, and Soul Saints in the world!"

"I know you don't believe me."

"But now, what I'm going to tell you is this."

"Once you hear who Tang San is, you'll understand why he can destroy you!"

His voice echoed across the Douluo Continent.

Countless people raised their heads and gazed expectantly at the great heavenly screen, waiting for Chen Yuan to speak.

They, too, were curious whether someone named Tang San really would destroy Spirit Hall in the future.

Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, Qian Daoliu, and the others wore gloomy expressions.

He spoke with such certainty, as though it were true, that Bibi Dong had no choice but to take it seriously.

If this person really did have a powerful background, that would be a different matter.

"Hmph, I'd like to see what background this Tang San has. Could it be greater than the origins of my Spirit Hall?"
