"Xu Ran, you're slandering me. Touch your own conscience, don't you feel pain when you say these things?" Tang San stood there, his body trembling with anger, his powerful "Cultivation Level" becoming unstable.
Xu Ran is still defaming him at this time.
How much dirt had Xu Ran thrown on him? And he still wants to throw more dirt on him?
"Tang San, do you still want to slander Xu Ran? Now everyone in the world knows that you destroyed the Hao Tian Clan, betrayed your master and family," Xiaowu said with a cold look in her eyes. Xu Ran had shown her that video a long time ago. In that video, Tang San not only annihilated the Hao Tian Clan but also killed the Hao Tian Clan's ancestor Tang Chen with a single punch.
Tang Chen, Title Douluo of the 99th Rank of the Hao Tian Clan, originally kept a low profile and stayed withdrawn from the Continent's affairs. However, when he learned that the Hao Tian Clan was in trouble, he rushed back to defend it. But what match was he for Tang San? With just one punch, Tang San killed Tang Chen.
Such strength is indeed powerful.
But no one respects you for your strength, Tang San.
The great power Tang San possesses can only bring disaster to the people on this Continent. Whereas Xu Ran's power can save the people and bring benefits to all. That is the difference between Tang San and Xu Ran.
Perhaps Tang San will never understand the gap between him and Xu Ran in his lifetime. If it were Xu Ran, she would never stoop so low as to insult a girl so shamelessly. To obtain a girl's body, Tang San even used the lives of so many people on Pearl Island as leverage.
It is the first time she has seen someone so shameless.
And Tang San dares to call himself a man?
Tang San even publicly demanded Purple Pearl to strip, to satisfy his twisted vanity?
Haha...
"Xiaowu, it was Xu Ran who killed the people of the Hao Tian Clan, not me," Tang San said with a hint of impatience in his eyes. He was even more furious after hearing the whole Continent say he killed the Hao Tian Clan. This was all Xu Ran throwing dirt on him.
His life had always been smeared with dirt.
He had never had many good days.
But now, he has a notorious reputation across the entire Continent. He is a god! A god who is spat upon by the people? Is Tang San, even as a god, so pitiable?
He thought that by becoming a god, he would earn respect and awe, but even the ants of Pearl Island look down on him. They would rather die than kneel and beg for mercy. Why? Why is Tang San so worthless?
"Tang San, your character is quite evident. Don't think about slandering Xu Ran. Are you also innocent of what happened to the people of Pearl Island, to Purple Pearl?" Xiaowu sneered, her pretty face filled with chill as she looked at Tang San.
She despised people like Tang San who bullied girls the most.
Xu Ran may be a philanderer, but he was warm to every girl, never intending to hurt their hearts, and even if he thought of doing something bad, it was only with their consent. In contrast, Tang San was utterly revolting, bullying a girl in such a way.
In that case, even if Tang San spared Purple Pearl's life in the end, with her strong character, she would likely choose to commit suicide.
"Xiaowu, you've been misunderstanding me all along. From Notting City until now, you've always misunderstood me. Throughout my life, the only bad thing I've done is what happened today, yet you speak as if every wrong I did was monstrous. While Xu Ran, who has done so many bad things, is innocent—why is that?"
"Xiaowu, Xiaowu, I became what I am now because Xu Ran forced me, and you forced me, too. You can't discern right from wrong, can't recognize people for who they are; otherwise, how could I have possibly become like this? Once, I was kind too, and I wanted to live a simple life," Tang San said with a piercing voice.
He howled toward the heavens.
And released his Martial Soul.
Nine blood-red Soul Rings spiraled around, and behind him, there was yet a mighty golden Soul Ring that stood peerless.
An incomparably terrifying blood-red aura ignited upon Tang San, and an extreme terror of oppression swept towards Pearl Island and the countless people surrounding it.
The horror of divine might left everyone agape in shock.
All the inhabitants of Pearl Island shivered uncontrollably and prostrated themselves on the ground. The god stood high above all, superior to others. As divine might was released, everyone had to kneel.
This was an inherent feeling of oppression that, willing or not, one had to succumb to.
Everyone looked at Tang San with fear and trepidation. In their eyes, Tang San was a tremendous demon who would kill without batting an eye. The aura around Tang San was filled with killing intent, resentment, and malevolence, making him seem unduly terrifying.
"What realm is this?" Purple Pearl looked at Tang San in shock, unable to calm her heart for a long time.
She had a creeping suspicion that Tang San might be of that realm.
But she didn't dare to be certain.
Could Tang San really be a god? But why would such a powerful Tang San do such a disgraceful thing? Could a god be so despicable?
She had originally thought that Tang San would be a powerful Titled Douluo, which to her understanding was already the most formidable. But who could have imagined, Tang San might actually be of that legendary realm!
My god!
Isn't this something that only exists in legends?
Why would a god appear here? And why such an evil god?
Purple Pearl was filled with immense concern. If Tang San was a god, and if Xu Ran couldn't defeat Tang San, what then? Xu Ran would die, and all the people of Pearl Island too.
"What should I do? I've inadvertently implicated two innocent people again." Purple Pearl bit her red lips tightly, her lovely eyes resting on Xu Ran, reminiscing about the way he held her when he saved her. How wonderful that sensation felt at that time.
In the past, she thought she could never fall for a man in her lifetime; her interests differed from other girls, as she preferred women. But all that changed when Xu Ran came along.
Xu Ran was a special being who transcended gender restrictions. So it turned out, there was a kind of man called Xu Ran.
She found that she was starting to like men, and that man was…
"Sister Purple, don't worry, Xu Ran will be fine," Xiaowu said, holding Purple Pearl's hand reassuringly.
At the same time, she too was somewhat worried. Tang San's "Cultivation Level" and strength had always been inferior to Xu Ran, yet now Tang San had caught up. Tang San had previously obtained the inheritance of the Rakshasa God, and clearly, he had rapidly taken on the Rakshasa God's inheritance.
With such power, even Xu Ran might find him tricky to handle.
Even if Xu Ran was very strong, there were limits.
If he truly were that strong, Xu Ran wouldn't have bothered to deal with the Destruction God. He would've obliterated the Destruction God outright.
After all, Xu Ran had yet to become a god, and facing those powerful gods, he naturally struggled somewhat. However, that struggle had its limits; if he forcibly paid the price, Xu Ran could also unleash tremendous power. But that would directly trigger an attack from the entire Divine Realm.
What Xu Ran wanted was to bide his time, to wait until his strength was sufficient to withstand half of the Divine Realm. Then, it would be time for him to turn against those individuals and strike.
