Recalling his experiences and sights during this period, Tang San's weather-beaten face remained calm, but a boundless indifference flickered deep within his eyes.
He already knew of the Heaven Dou Empire's conquest of Star Luo and its unification of the continent.
He also knew that before Jialing Pass, the Clear Sky Sect was annihilated, and five Titled Douluo, including his uncle Tang Xiao, were glared to death by Yang Yuan.
He had once been very lost.
Could he, after all his hard cultivation, still surpass Yang Yuan and seek revenge?
Even if he filled both of his twin spirits' spirit rings and reached rank ninety-nine as a super Douluo, could he truly be a match for Yang Yuan?
At that moment, Tang San's heart was filled not only with confusion but also with despair.
But in the end, he endured.
Having lived two lives, his greatest reliance was more than just his twin spirits.
He also had the Tang Sect Ultimate Skills and Tang SectHidden Weapons.
As long as he could produce the Tang Sect's PeakHidden Weapons, there might still be a chance.
Even if there was only a sliver of a chance, Tang San would not give up easily.
As for the Slaughter City.
Tang San only now understood his father's intention in sending him to the Slaughter City.
Besides being able to obtain a powerful Domain skill, the Slaughter City, as a paradise for the fallen, was also his final retreat.
Tang San took a deep breath and then strode into the tavern.
All the decorations in the tavern were black, and upon entering, one could immediately sense an extremely thick scent of blood.
The customers around were either burly and crude or fierce-looking, with murderous glints in their eyes.
Tang San casually found a seat and sat down, his expression indifferent.
Soon, a waiter dressed in black walked up.
"What would the guest like to order?"
Tang San said with a calm expression, "A glass of bloody mary!"
"Are you sure?" The waiter's expression changed slightly.
Tang San gave the waiter a cold sweep of his eyes, and the latter immediately stopped talking.
Before long, he returned carrying a glass of slightly thick and turbid blood-colored liquid.
Tang San had already inquired about the rules here and knew that bloody mary was human blood.
However, Tang San remained expressionless, took the bloody mary, downed it in one gulp, then stood up and looked around.
There were about thirty people in the tavern at the moment. Seeing Tang San stand up, dangerous looks appeared on their faces, and several had already completed their SpiritPossession or released their Spirits.
"A bunch of scum, all of you shall become my nourishment!"
In Tang San's eyes, the people before him were like weeds; killing them wouldn't cause him the slightest psychological burden.
Despite having killed countless people, Tang San would still label them as evil before he killed them.
Of course, ninety-nine percent of those who could make it here were indeed wicked criminals.
"What an arrogant brat, your hair hasn't even grown in yet and you dare to put on airs before me..."
"Die for me!!"
A burly man holding a blood-colored Mountain-Cleaving Saber shouted and charged at Tang San, the blood-colored blade slashing down fiercely toward Tang San's head.
But at the same moment he moved, Tang San's figure flashed.
Behind him, a dark shadow vanished in an instant.
"Ssh!"
The sound of breaking air rang out. The burly man's body froze in place, his expression stunned and bewildered as he instinctively looked down.
He saw that his chest had been pierced by the Eight Spider Lances in that lightning-fast moment.
Most fatally, he could feel the Life force within his body rapidly draining away.
These Eight Spider Lances could actually absorb his spirit power and Life Essence.
In just two breaths, he felt himself reaching his final moments.
He couldn't help but look at the cold-faced young man before him, but before he could even speak his last words, his body shriveled at a visible rate, finally turning into a dried corpse.
Seeing this, Tang San withdrew the Eight Spider Lances, his expression calm as if he had only done a trivial thing.
He shook his head and muttered to himself, "The Life Essence of a Spirit King can't even increase my progress by a tenth of a rank."
As soon as he finished speaking, his gaze suddenly swept toward the others.
That look was like the expression of a predator seeing its prey.
"Not good!!"
Someone cried out in alarm!
The next moment, Tang San stepped out, using the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Step. His figure was like a ghost, weaving through the crowd.
Behind him, the Eight Spider Lances flickered repeatedly.
"Clang, clang, clang, clang!"
The sound of metal clashing rang out continuously in the dim tavern, sparks flying everywhere and blood splattering.
Wherever Tang San passed, dried corpses slumped powerlessly. In just five minutes, nearly thirty guests in the tavern had all died by Tang San's hand.
Among them, the strongest had spirit power at the Spirit Emperor level, while the weakest was merely a Spirit Elder.
After devouring the strongest Spirit Emperor, Tang San's Aura surged.
He had a Breakthrough!
Even if it was only by one rank!
The expression on Tang San's face still didn't fluctuate much as he simply walked to the bar.
Two waiters stood there, one of whom was the one who had served him the wine.
Tang San's voice was cold: "The entrance to the Slaughter City is down here, isn't it?"
His mental force had already sensed a void beneath the bar.
The two waiters had witnessed the entire slaughter just now, and a hint of surprise flashed across their faces.
They were long accustomed to such killing, but it was their first time seeing someone as young as Tang San.
However, their psychological fortitude was strong, and they quickly reacted, nodding coldly.
Having received the answer from them, Tang San gave a wicked smile, and the blood-dripping Eight Spider Lances behind him suddenly pierced through the two waiters.
"You... are also evil!"
"How can I let you go!"
As the words landed, the two waiters had already turned into dried corpses, their faces still showing a trace of shock and confusion.
After the two died, Tang San struck the bar with his palm, instantly shattering it to pieces.
Then he stepped forward and stomped. With a muffled "bang," a deep, dark hole exploded open where the bar had been.
Tang San glanced at the large hole, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes, and then he leaped into it.
...
Qi Tian Royal Residence!
Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, Dugu Bo, and the others left one after another.
Leaving with them were the three women: Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and Ning Rongrong.
If their family members hadn't been there, they would have insisted on staying at the Qi Tian Royal Residence for a few more days to be close to Yang Yuan before going home.
But now...
They could only obediently go home first.
Soon, only Yang Yuan, Gu Yuena, Ah Yin, and Xiao Wu remained in the Qi Tian Royal Residence.
Xiao Wu was carefree; after the welcome feast, she ran back to her bedroom and lay back on the soft large bed, her face full of enjoyment after being well-fed and watered.
"This is the Life!"
Xiao Wu muttered contentedly to herself, but at that moment, the bedroom door suddenly opened.
Ah Yin walked in first.
Seeing her appearance, Xiao Wu was slightly stunned and was about to say hello, but less than a breath after Ah Yin entered, Gu Yuena also walked in.
Upon seeing Gu Yuena, Xiao Wu immediately flipped up from the bed, her expression carrying a hint of respect.
"Lord, why have you come as well!"
Even though Xiao Wu's spirit power had advanced by leaps and bounds over the past few years and her wings had grown stronger, she still behaved like a timid quail in front of Gu Yuena.
Gu Yuena said indifferently, "What? Am I not welcome?"
Xiao Wu hurriedly said, "How could that be."
After speaking, she walked to Ah Yin's side and whispered, "Why did you come?"
On the surface, she was asking Ah Yin, but in reality, she was asking about Gu Yuena.
Ah Yin shook her head, indicating she didn't know either.
Gu Yuena said calmly, "Do you two still remember what I told you back then?"
Xiao Wu was stunned.
"Told us what?"
She had always been carefree and truly didn't know what Gu Yuena was referring to at this moment.
Ah Yin was different; she instantly understood which matter Gu Yuena was talking about, and her cheeks turned slightly red.
Gu Yuena looked at Xiao Wu's expression and shook her head slightly.
"Back then, I said that for the future of the Soul Beast Clan, you need to marry Yang Yuan and have children."
After Gu Yuena finished speaking, Xiao Wu suddenly remembered, and her expression became somewhat unnatural.
Years had passed.
With a more outstanding gem like Yang Yuan before her, Xiao Wu's longing for Tang San was actually not as deep as it had been.
Despite Xiao Wu's firm opposition back then, under Gu Yuena's forceful attitude, she might not have been without fantasies about marrying Yang Yuan and having children.
Although such fantasies once caused her strong feelings of guilt, it was precisely because of this that her feelings for Tang San had long since developed cracks.
And these cracks had not closed over time but had instead grown larger, though Xiao Wu herself was unaware.
At this moment, Xiao Wu's expression turned from shock to bashfulness, and then a strong sense of guilt arose.
If I really marry the Boss and have children, wouldn't San-ge be very sad if he found out?
But immediately, Xiao Wu remembered the specific details after Gu Yuena had proposed this back then, and she immediately retorted, "Lord, you clearly promised back then that only after you took the lead would Ah Yin and I agree to sacrifice ourselves."
Hearing this, Gu Yuena said faintly, "How do you know that I haven't already sacrificed myself?"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Wu was struck like a bolt from the blue. She pointed a finger at Gu Yuena in shock, her body trembling slightly.
"You, you mean you and the Boss did that? This... how is this possible?"
"Lord, you aren't joking with me, are you?"
Xiao Wu's face was full of disbelief.
Not just Xiao Wu, even Ah Yin's face was written with shock, but her shock quickly turned into bashfulness.
If the Lord has already sacrificed herself, then it should be my turn, right?
Ah Yin's eyes went blank, her thoughts already drifting away.
Gu Yuena said calmly, "Is there any need for me to joke with you?"
"No... I didn't see it with my own eyes. What if you're just bluffing?"
Although Xiao Wu was stubborn, she actually believed about seventy to eighty percent of it in her heart.
She really couldn't find a reason for Gu Yuena to bluff her, so her brain was currently a mess, and certain fantasies from before surged into her mind again.
What should I do?
What should I do?
Do I really have to...
Gu Yuena said indifferently, "Since you want to see it with your own eyes, then go wait in my bedroom."
Then she looked at Ah Yin: "You go too!"
After hearing this, Ah Yin's expression was calm, but a look of eagerness flashed in her eyes.
Night fell.
Inside a large wardrobe in Gu Yuena's bedroom.
Xiao Wu and Ah Yin stood inside, watching the scene in the bedroom through the crack in the wardrobe door.
Currently, there was no one else in the bedroom besides the two of them.
Xiao Wu whispered, "Ah Yin, why are we hiding in the wardrobe? Hiding here gives me a very strange feeling."
Ah Yin said, "But if we don't hide in the wardrobe, it seems we have nowhere else to hide. We can't exactly stand at the head of the bed waiting for them, can we?"
After hearing this, Xiao Wu gave an "Oh": "That seems to make some sense!"
"Shh, someone's coming!"
At this moment, the creak of a door opening sounded at the bedroom entrance.
The door was opened, and through the wardrobe crack, Ah Yin and Xiao Wu could see two figures walking into the bedroom.
It was none other than Gu Yuena and... Yang Yuan!
Although she was prepared, seeing this scene with her own eyes still filled Xiao Wu with shock.
Oh no, there's no escape this time, I'm really going to have the Boss's children!
Bashfulness and guilt advanced side by side.
On the other side.
Before Yang Yuan even stepped into Gu Yuena's bedroom, he already knew of Ah Yin and Xiao Wu's presence.
He had seen such a scene before!
Tonight would be very exciting!!
The car Tang San couldn't bear to drive—wouldn't he have to stand up and pedal it?
That's a bit wicked!
Entering the room, Yang Yuan and Gu Yuena shared a tacit understanding and instantly moved to the bed.
The sounds in the bedroom also grew louder and louder.
Inside the wardrobe, in the dark and narrow space, the atmosphere between Ah Yin and Xiao Wu became increasingly strange, and their breathing gradually grew heavy.
In the darkness, their gazes met across the space.
Xiao Wu could feel that Ah Yin's eyes seemed to be covered by a layer of misty haze.
It wasn't until the latter half of the night that the sounds in the bedroom gradually turned from high-pitched to hoarse and finally vanished.
At this time, the sound of footsteps on the floor echoed from outside the wardrobe, followed by steady footfalls.
Ah Yin and Xiao Wu looked through the wardrobe crack, and a tall, upright figure had already blocked their line of sight.
The next moment, with a creak.
The wardrobe door was suddenly opened from the outside, and a playful voice rang out.
"You've been watching for so long, haven't you seen enough?"
Xiao Wu didn't know what was wrong with her at the time; she only knew her mind went blank, and she walked out of the wardrobe in a daze.
She only felt wronged.
The Boss was so gentle to Ah Yin, but so rough with her.
She swore she wouldn't talk to him for several days.
But, but he insisted!
...
A few days later.
Ah Yin was radiant, her eyes glowing, her youthfulness carrying a hint of charm.
Xiao Wu was similarly glowing, but her expression often carried a look of conflict.
Meanwhile, in the Slaughter City.
Tang San had already entered and had gone through two matches, killing all his opponents.
He was now under a tree.
The main colors of the Slaughter City were black and red, and such green plants were extremely rare; even if they existed, most had few leaves and only bare branches.
For example, the large tree above Tang San had only a small patch of vibrant green leaves directly over his head, like a green-colored hat.
Tang San had just finished a match when he suddenly felt a pang in his heart.
"Strange, why would a sense of discomfort suddenly arise in my heart? Could someone have used poison on me during the match just now?"
Tang San hurriedly checked his body and found no signs of poisoning, which allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief.
"It seems I was overthinking it!" Tang San thought to himself.
On the other side, Xiao Wu weakly rolled her eyes.
"I won't think about it anymore, I'll never think about Tang San again..."
