The Tang Yin of today was the Tang San of before.
His Blue Silver Grass had been purified, transforming into the Blue Silver Emperor, which led to a complete improvement of his physique.
Not only had his appearance changed, but he had also grown taller.
Tang San's first arena battle ended quickly. After Jiang Xiaofeng and Hu Liena left, he finished his own battle soon after.
His abilities caught the King of Slaughter's attention.
"Another young man with good talent has arrived. How are the Asura Messenger and the Asura God of Slaughter doing lately?"
"Replying to the King of Slaughter, according to your instructions, they have reduced their arena battles to one each recently. The Asura Messenger currently has 55 wins, while the Asura God of Slaughter has 67 wins."
"Hmm, arrange more arena matches for the newcomer if possible. He's the third Clear Sky Sect disciple in a hundred years. I'm very much looking forward to seeing what kind of friction will arise between the Clear Sky Sect disciple and the Spirit Hall disciple."
The Asura Messenger asked, "Should I arrange a battle between them?"
"Of course not. I want all three of them to reach 100 wins. At least one of them needs to stay by my side, or even all of them, understand?"
The Asura Messenger nodded repeatedly. She wouldn't dare disobey the King of Slaughter's orders. She had witnessed the King of Slaughter's abilities firsthand; he was undoubtedly at the pinnacle of Soul Masters.
"Yes!"
As the Asura Messenger left the King of Slaughter's palace, she had a bad premonition.
She had become an Asura Messenger because the King of Slaughter had seen her talent.
But if all three of them stayed, her status would likely plummet, and she might even be abandoned by the King of Slaughter. Therefore, she didn't want anyone else to replace her; otherwise, her lofty position would vanish.
"The Asura Messenger and the Asura God of Slaughter definitely won't stay. I wonder about this Tang Yin? It seems I need to find out more! It's best to bring those two along as well."
The Asura Messenger had his own plans, so he gathered the three of them together.
However, Jiang Xiaofeng, Hu Liena, and Tang San didn't know that the Asura Messenger had also summoned them.
When they met in the City of Slaughter's only tavern, Tang San frowned slightly.
He wasn't afraid of Jiang Xiaofeng attacking him on the Hell Road, because the rules here prevented Jiang Xiaofeng from doing so. Moreover, his appearance had changed drastically, and it was impossible for Jiang Xiaofeng to recognize him as Tang San.
Jiang Xiaofeng was also stunned when he saw Tang Yin. He didn't expect the Asura Messenger to call this guy too. What did it mean?
Hu Liena, that carefree girl, was quite pleased to see a handsome man.
"Hello, I'm Hu Liena. You're Tang Yin, right? I watched your matches; they were truly amazing!"
Tang Yin said, "Hello. From the looks of it, you should be the Asura Messenger and the Asura God of Slaughter that the Asura Messenger mentioned."
After saying that, Tang San extended a hand, politely wanting to shake hands with Jiang Xiaofeng.
Jiang Xiaofeng smiled and bumped fists with him, indicating that he had already greeted him.
Tang San didn't mind, but he confirmed that Jiang Xiaofeng hadn't recognized him. That made things easier.
The Asura Messenger smiled and said, "The three of you are acquainted now. You know you're different from the others; you're the ones the King of Slaughter appreciates. I'm very optimistic about your future. Of course, if you die prematurely, then there's nothing to be done. It's just your fate."
Jiang Xiaofeng asked, "What does that mean, Asura Messenger? Does it mean I'll never cross paths with this guy?"
The Asura Messenger didn't answer directly, but smiled slightly.
"Everything is fate. However, on behalf of the King of Slaughter, I'm asking for your decision. Do you want to stay in the City of Slaughter, or do you want to walk the Hell Road after a hundred victories?"
Jiang Xiaofeng and Tang San said without hesitation, "Leave!"
The Asura Messenger was immediately relieved. It seemed that no one wanted to stay. Then his position was secured.
"Hell Road isn't easy to traverse. Almost no one survives it; it's incredibly difficult. You need to be prepared!"
Jiang Xiaofeng, of course, understood. He didn't need to be told how difficult Hell Road was. Otherwise, why would no one in the City of Slaughter ever leave? Most likely, they died on the path.
Of course, if you passed Hell Road, you could obtain the Deathgod Domain, which was an equally tempting reward!
But what many people didn't know was that obtaining the Deathgod Domain also qualified you for the Asura God's inheritance.
Whether one could actually receive the Asura God's inheritance depended on that person's talent.
Jiang Xiaofeng watched Tang Yin with interest.
"You're from the Clear Sky Sect, so you should know a person named Tang San, right? Where is this Tang San?"
Tang Yin replied without changing his expression, "I don't know. I've been in the Clear Sky Sect. It was the elders of my clan who asked me to come out and gain experience this time!"
Jiang Xiaofeng nodded, understanding that the Clear Sky Sect had secluded themselves for over a decade, so not knowing was understandable.
On the other hand, Hu Liena, who was standing beside him, was particularly interested in this Tang Yin.
"Tang Yin, your Clear Sky Sect has been in seclusion for so long, are you researching something new? I've never seen a Clear Sky Sect disciple like you!"
Tang San glanced at the alluring Hu Liena.
If I didn't have Xiao Wu, this Hu Liena would be a very suitable choice for a partner.
Of course, Jiang Xiaofeng, who was right in front of him, was a natural chasm. It probably wouldn't be easy to gain Hu Liena's favor. Moreover, from Tang San's perspective, Hu Liena's eyes were full of Jiang Xiaofeng.
"Disciples of the Clear Sky Sect rarely go out. Even if they do, they try their best to conceal their identities. It's normal that you haven't seen them!"
Hu Liena: "Oh, that's true. But I heard my teacher say that the disciples of the Clear Sky Sect are generally more masculine in personality because of their Martial Soul, but you don't seem like that. Has your Martial Soul mutated?"
The Tang Yin in front of him looked a bit more beautiful, which was indeed different from the disciples of the Clear Sky Sect.
Jiang Xiaofeng also glanced at Tang San a few times, but Hu Liena was more observant, even noticing this.
Tang San said with a chuckle, "Perhaps it's because my mother was beautiful. But enough about us, you two are from Spirit Hall, right? The Clear Sky Sect and Spirit Hall are like oil and water. If the elders of the Clear Sky Sect saw me sitting here with you, they'd probably beat me to death!"
Jiang Xiaofeng laughed loudly, "Your Clear Sky Sect is pathetic. You killed the Pope of Spirit Hall and then hid away in fear, such cowards!"
Jiang Xiaofeng deliberately taunted, wanting to see how Tang San would react.
However, Tang San's reaction was very calm, as if the Clear Sky Sect had nothing to do with him, which made Jiang Xiaofeng a bit suspicious.
To die or not to die? If he dies in the City of Slaughter, Xiao Wu not only won't be sacrificed, but can also become a spirit ring.
If he doesn't die, Xiao Wu will still be Tang San's spirit ring!
Of course, there might be a forced advance, but if you don't like it, I won't write that part!
