"Boom!"
The towering, cloud-high golden temple began to shake.
A fierce, bloody aura seeped through the gaps in the door.
Such disturbances outside the door were frightening, but inside it was even more terrifying, with seas of blood reaching the heavens.
Massive waves of red killing intent filled every corner of the temple, surging like a torrential flood.
Such a terrifying sight would instantly crush any Ultimate Douluo that dared enter, overwhelmed by the immense killing aura.
In the deepest part of the temple,
a figure clad in ferocious, dark red godly armor sat cross-legged, all the boundless, endless killing aura releasing from his body.
With every breath he took, the killing aura rolled and churned, terrifying to the extreme.
As if sensing something, his eyelids flickered, revealing two red glows.
They were a pair of blood-red pupils, indifferent to the fate of mortals, filled with resolute murderous intent.
He spoke coldly.
"Another inheritor of my Killing God Field has died?"
After a moment of silence in the temple, that indifferent voice spoke again.
"Dead, then let it be dead."
"A deceased inheritor is but garbage, and I, the Asura God, do not need garbage inheritors."
The Asura God closed his eyes, ready to resume his seclusion.
But suddenly, an image flashed through his mind.
A figure enveloped in radiant golden light, filled with the presence of Dragon Might, shattered a towering hammer patterned with red and black lines with a single strike.
"Hm?"
The Asura God was startled, his eyes suddenly wide open.
"The scene the inheritor saw before death?"
"That just now was..."
"The aura of Dragon Clan Remnants?"
The Asura God's eyes narrowed slightly, and with a booming sound, a violent killing intent swirled inside the temple.
"The Dragon Clan, they all should die!"
The Asura God's icy voice echoed within the temple.
"Just a bit more to break through, I shall let you, this insignificant remnant, live a little longer."
"Once my seclusion is over, I will descend and crush you."
The Asura God felt a tinge of regret; just a single image did not allow him to sense more of the situation.
"I hope when I descend, I will encounter a big fish. If all I crush is a little worm, it would be quite uninteresting."
As he closed his eyes, the sea of killing aura in the temple began to roll once more.
The figure in the blood-red godly armor grew increasingly powerful.
Soul Land, in a land unknown.
The sky was blood-colored, the ground scorched and barren, and the surroundings were cloaked in black mist.
The air was thick with the stench of blood.
From above, eight lake-sized pools of red and black blood guarded a ritual altar made of grim white bones.
A figure lay on the altar.
Blue hair in disarray touched the ground, a dried blood hole in the chest, breathless and lifeless as if long dead.
Suddenly, a black, viscous cluster of light floated down from the sky.
It circled around Tang San's face a few times before swiftly burrowing into his brow.
Tang San's body convulsed violently.
Flesh started to grow from the hole in his chest, gradually healing.
The breath that had been dead quiet suddenly showed a faint sign of life.
At the same time, an unexpected change occurred.
The altar lit up with a forbidding white light, and the eight surrounding blood-colored lakes started to boil and churn.
...
At this moment, Luo Yu, who was in the Tiandou Empire and had just finished the champions award ceremony, was completely unaware of these developments.
He was being pulled by Xiaowu and her group of girls to go book a room.
Eventually, they arrived at a private room in the Heaven Dou Restaurant, where he sat in the seat of honor.
Empress Bibi Dong and the seductive mature beauty A Wu sat to his left and right.
At this time, Bibi Dong had already removed the black veil, revealing her breathtakingly beautiful face, dazzlingly gorgeous to behold.
Her golden gown highlighted her shapely buttocks and legs, revealing them in exquisite detail.
A Wu changed into a black sheer dress that clung to her explosive figure, her pink mesmerizing eyes were full of allure.
Xiaowu, for a rare occasion, donned pink stockings, her hair tied into a high ponytail that trailed all the way down to her ankles, her stockinged legs with golden proportions were incredibly delicate and charming.
Ning Rongrong embraced a bold style, wearing a dark blue princess dress with white fishnet stockings and black high-heeled shoes with rounded toes, innocent yet enticing.
Xue Wu wore an off-shoulder black dress that left her ample assets nearly overflowing.
The Zhu Zhuqing sisters had removed their black leather jackets, now in black and white maid outfits with short stockings that barely covered their snow-white calves.
The Shui Bing'er sisters put their hair up in twin ponytails, completely different from the other girls, giving off a pure and lively vibe.
With school uniform skirts and long white suspender stockings, they were exceptionally innocent and adorable.
All the ladies dressed to the nines for the occasion, making the whole private room feel as if it had been elevated in an instant.
As the only man in the private room, Luo Yu thought he should really order some dishes.
He needed some sustenance to replenish himself.
Otherwise, surviving tonight might be a problem!
Alas.
Luo Yu sighed inwardly as he looked at the beautiful women chatting at the table.
It seemed that tonight was destined to be restless.
I'm supposed to be an upstanding young man.
I don't want to be corrupt.
But the situation doesn't allow for it.
Once the dishes were served,
Luo Yu didn't bother chatting with the women, quickly beginning to eat.
He went straight for the "Sautéed Money Bag Meat" and the "Stir-Fried Land Dragon Kidneys" and gobbled them down voraciously.
While Luo Yu was enjoying the gentle company, Yu Yuanzhen and his group reappeared in that secluded cabin within Tiandou City.
The atmosphere around the round table in the cabin was very heavy.
Haotian Sect's Tang Yuehua, Fire Leopard Sect Master, Snow Night Emperor, Ning Fengzhi, Yu Yuanzhen, and Davis were all gathered together.
"We can't wait any longer!" Yu Yuanzhen said with a gloomy face, fiercely slamming the table.
Davis urgently agreed, "Yes! That kid has become a force to be reckoned with, even capable of slaying Hao Tian Douluo. If we don't take him out now, what future can our powers have?"
During this conversation, he glanced at Tang Yuehua, both deliberately and indirectly. He was doing it on purpose, well aware of the relationship between Tang Hao and Tang Yuehua.
Tang Yuehua looked melancholy, sitting there, silent.
It was the Snow Night Emperor who took up the conversation, his expression extremely anxious, "I think we should act tomorrow, no, tonight."
"While Luo Yu's strength is still recovering from the consumptive battle with Tang Hao, we should gather our forces and kill him directly!"
"Isn't that a bit too early, too hasty?" The Fire Leopard Sect Master asked hesitantly.
"Early?" the Snow Night Emperor snorted. "This boy must be eliminated as soon as possible, without a moment's delay. Can we afford to drag our feet? Unless you are Luo Yu's spy?"
"Pah!" The Fire Leopard Sect Master became irritated, "What a joke, how could I be a spy?!"
"I think you look like one!" Snow Night Emperor looked at him coldly.
"Slandering is easy for anyone," retorted the Fire Leopard Sect Master. "I think you're the real spy, the biggest spy of all."
"Enough, enough!" Yu Yuanzhen slapped the table, "We're all on the same side, no need to argue."
"Let's do as the Snow Night Emperor suggests. We'll gather our forces tonight and deal with that kid together."
"I agree!" Davis was the first to jump up and raise his hand.
"I have no objections." The Fire Leopard Sect Master nodded.
Tang Yuehua nodded slightly, her expression still one of sorrow.
"Then it's settled," Ning Fengzhi clapped his hands.
