"Ah, my life is over!"
Just as Tang Ao was preparing to close his eyes and await death, Shen Zhao stepped forward in time, blocking him. He unleashed a palm strike, instantly sending Tang Ran staggering back more than ten yards.
"It's you again!"
Seeing Shen Zhao, Tang Ran's expression immediately shifted.
Shen Zhao said, "Bold Tang Ran, you are now a wanted criminal by the court. The entire Great Yin Dynasty is after you. I didn't expect you to still dare to commit violence. I advise you to surrender and confess, and try to get a lighter sentence."
Tang Ran did not dare to speak. He knew Shen Zhao's strength was unfathomable. With him intervening, the resources of the Tang Clan would likely be difficult to obtain today.
But a Dragon King Envoy on the side stepped forward, his aura domineering. He pointed directly at Shen Zhao's nose and berated him, "Who do you think you are, speaking to my young master like that?"
Shen Zhao, upon hearing this, immediately rolled up his sleeves. "Do you want to rephrase that?"
The Dragon King Envoy sneered, "Stop pretending. I've seen plenty of young people like you. You learn some low-level techniques and think you're the best in the world, strutting around like you own the place. But you probably don't know that the main purpose of the Dragon King Hall is to slap down those who try to act tough?"
He took another step forward. "When our young master was starting his path to becoming a big shot, you were probably still in diapers. Don't push your luck and try to act tough in front of me."
"Holy shit..." Shen Zhao stared at him in disbelief, then glanced at Ding Bu'er and snorted, "No one has ever dared to speak to me like that before."
The Dragon King Envoy continued to shout, "Now, I'll give you a chance. Kneel down and apologize to our young master, and then become a slave for life. The Dragon King Hall might spare your dog life. Otherwise..."
"Otherwise, what do you want to do?" Shen Zhao wiped his face, trying to suppress a laugh, and said calmly, "Don't tell me you can kill me here?"
Tang Ran was so embarrassed he wanted to dig a hole and crawl into it. His subordinate was fine in every other way, but his eyes and brain were seriously lacking. How could he provoke this person?
Didn't he see that the person had just sent me flying with one palm?
The Dragon King Envoy continued to roar, "Dealing with a small fry like you who only knows how to act tough, I can wipe out a whole bunch with a single finger."
With a "crack," the Dragon King Envoy's voice abruptly stopped, and he fell to the ground without a word.
Following that, there was a "squish" as a kick sent him flying three hundred meters.
The moment he landed, another "bam" – an uppercut sent him flipping backward twice and a half before he crashed to the ground, eyes rolled back, and he was completely still.
The next moment, the scene was completely out of control.
The other Dragon King Envoys, seeing their companion get beaten, immediately roared and pounced towards Shen Zhao. Tang Ran was too late to stop them.
"Kid, you dare to touch someone from the Dragon King Hall, you're finished!"
"Today, we'll show you what the dangers of the martial world are like."
"Once we're done with him, we'll sell him to a rich woman as a cauldron to exchange for spirit stones."
"Better to send him to Northern Myanmar. I have connections there. We can harvest his kidneys and sell them!"
"Isn't Northern Myanmar in a civil war? Some of those in the park are escaping, some are dying, and a few have been sent back, haven't they?"
"Don't worry about the details. Precisely because it's dangerous, that's how we make more money."
But soon, they would understand just what kind of iron plate they had provoked.
With a "kuch" sound, one person learned to sing, dance, and rap.
With a "gaba" sound, one person was cursing about feeding the rats.
With a "hong pa" sound, one person's legs were broken.
"Bang!" One person was careless and couldn't dodge.
"Crack!" One person's... well, they were playing basketball.
It was a barrage of fists and flesh, with no technique, just pure emotion.
In just a moment, all the Dragon King Envoys were lying straight on the ground, silently groaning.
And Tang Ran had already taken advantage of the chaos to escape.
All the way, he wanted to cry but had no tears.
How could he have encountered such a ruthless person? Where exactly had he offended such a demon?
After dealing with the Dragon King Hall's people, Shen Zhao just leaned against the wall, unfazed, looking at the Tang Clan littered with corpses.
And Ding Bu'er was hugging Tang Ao again, putting on a show of "fatherly love."
"Dad, hang in there!"
"Son, I really can't hold on this time. I didn't expect to see such a filial son before I die. I'm truly comforted."
"Don't say anything, Dad, hold on. I'll go find a doctor to save you."
"Don't go, son. Now that our Tang Clan has suffered such a blow, we're severely weakened. The heavy responsibility of reviving the Tang Clan falls on your shoulders."
"Dad, don't talk nonsense. How can your son be capable of revitalizing the Tang Clan?"
"You are my son, of course, you have this responsibility. This is the key to the Underground Vault. All the Tang Clan's foundation is inside. Remember, you must revitalize the Tang Clan."
Ding Bu'er was heartbroken, but after receiving the key handed over by Tang Ao, he immediately stopped his crocodile tears, threw Tang Ao to the ground, and went straight to Shen Zhao's side: "Master Shen, done."
"Not bad. I'll give you a raise when we get back!" Shen Zhao took the key, nodding in satisfaction.
Tang Ao, witnessing this, was filled with disbelief: "Third Brother, what are you doing?"
Ding Bu'er heard this and turned to look at Tang Ao with disdain: "To tell you the truth, I'm not your son. I've felt disgusted calling you 'dad' these past few days."
"What!"
"Pfft~"
Hearing this, Tang Ao was consumed by poison fire, violently spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"You... you're not my... Tang Clan person..."
"Ugh, stop being so disgusting. Someone like you isn't worthy of being my dad. Even dogs would despise you. We're here for your Tang Clan's assets. Do you really think a son came to find his family? Stop fantasizing."
"You, ah~"
With a roar of unwillingness, Tang Ao kicked the bucket on the spot, his eyes wide open even in death.
He never imagined he would die so absurdly.
Regarding Tang Ao's death, Ding Bu'er said with lingering interest, "Should we throw a banquet? Serve eight cold dishes and eight hot dishes, call the neighbors, and then squeeze some happy funeral money? I guarantee that the neighbors in this city will be willing to pay for a meal when they learn that this guy is dead."
"Get out! Quickly take the Tang Clan's resources. We still have to go and fleece the Dragon King Hall, don't waste time!"
The Tang Clan's destruction didn't cause much of a stir on the Immortal Martial Continent.
After all, the Tang Clan's style of doing things was despised by various sects and families. Furthermore, they were only a mid-level family that had halfway converted, so their destruction didn't cause much of a sensation.
Shen Zhao and Ding Bu'er, the instigators, had plundered all the resources the Tang Clan had accumulated over the years. They then mounted their flying spirit beast again and hurried towards the Dragon King Hall.
This time, Shen Zhao wanted to completely destroy Lin Feng's only foothold for the future.
Compared to directly killing Lin Feng, Shen Zhao preferred to watch the Son of the Plane of Luck, using all his means to reach the peak, only to end up as a clown, with a heart-wrenching, desperate, and confused gaze.
Shen Zhao admitted that he was never a good person. He would never be soft-hearted towards those protagonists from his previous life who would stop at nothing to be his enemies.
However, he was also not the type to drag the whole world into it because of unfair fate, turning into a villain and plunging billions of lives into the abyss.
Debts have debtors, and those who provoke him should pay a tenfold price, but the innocent should not be implicated. Even in the law of the jungle, the innocent should not be used to complete his revenge plan.
At the Dragon King Hall's main headquarters, two old men looked up at the distant sky.
They were elders of the Dragon King Hall, its strongest combat force.
They are Shi Tongtian and Fu Tianhan, respectively.
After a long while, Fu Tianhan said, "Young Master's trip to the Tang Clan, I wonder how it went?"
Shi Tongtian said, "The Young Master is exceptionally skilled and deeply cunning. With the Corrosive Incense Powder at his disposal, that old geezer Tang Ao won't stand a chance."
Fu Tianhan said, "But my eyelids have been twitching these past two days. I have a bad feeling."
Shi Tongtian said, "You're overthinking it. Thirty Soul Sea Realm Dragon King Envoys and two Mysterious Void Realm experts are accompanying him. Dealing with a small Tang Clan is more than enough."
Fu Tianhan said, "These are the foundations of our Dragon King Hall. If something goes wrong, the future of our Dragon King Hall will be ruined."
Shi Tongtian's heart also trembled at these words, but he immediately said, "It won't happen. The Tang Clan is absolutely incapable of withstanding the Dragon King Hall's fury."
Just as the two were worried about Tang Ran's trip to the Tang Clan, a small fry from the Dragon King Hall came to report, "Reporting to the two elders, someone outside claims to be the Young Master of the Dragon King and demands to see the two elders."
"Are you Tang Ran, Young Master? Have you even forgotten what the Young Master looks like?"
"This is outrageous. Why are the disciples the Dragon King Hall has recruited recently so incompetent?"
A small fry hastily said, "Reporting to the two elders, it's not Young Master Tang, but someone claiming to be Shen Zhao. He said he's here to take over the Dragon King Hall, claiming he is the true Dragon King."
Shi Tongtian and Fu Tianhan exchanged glances upon hearing this. Then, Fu Tianhan said furiously, "What a nerve! To commit fraud right under the nose of the Dragon King Hall! Do you think I won't send that brat to Myanmar to dig coal?"
Shi Tongtian was also furious, "Have we been too low-key recently that such a strange thing has happened?"
The two immediately decided to go and see for themselves what kind of fanaticism it was, openly engaging in telecommunications fraud in broad daylight.
However, when the two arrived at the entrance of the hall, they saw Shen Zhao berating several guards of the Dragon King Hall as if they were his grandsons.
"What kind of behavior is this? Did your fathers die and your mothers run away? Who are you showing those gloomy faces to, you bunch of unlucky bastards?"
"Have you been smoking leaves until you're brain-dead? Look at you, dark circles under your eyes, looking utterly wretched. Don't you have a shred of the Dragon King Hall's demeanor?"
"This young master has finally made a triumphant return, planning to lead you all to glory. But the moment I arrive, you're all looking like this. If it weren't for my mission, I wouldn't even deign to come to this awful place."
Seeing Shen Zhao's ranting and arrogant attitude, Shi Tongtian and Fu Tianhan's faces revealed a strange expression.
Then, Fu Tianhan went forward and asked, "Who are you? What brings you to our Dragon King Hall?"
Seeing the main figure, Shen Zhao didn't say a word and slapped him directly across the face.
"You useless thing! This young master has returned to take charge of the Dragon King Hall, and this is how you treat me, leaving me hanging here?"
Fu Tianhan was stunned by the slap, and after regaining his senses, he was immediately filled with rage.
However, before he could erupt in anger, another slap landed on the other side of his face.
"You dare glare at me? What the hell is that look? You want to rebel?"
Fu Tianhan and Shi Tongtian beside him were completely dumbfounded.
The Dragon King Hall guards on the side also wore expressions of disbelief.
This guy actually dared to slap two elders in public? How much guts did he have!
Fu Tianhan felt the burning pain on his cheek, and the anger in his eyes could no longer be suppressed.
But just as he was about to directly kill Shen Zhao, he was stunned by the scene before him.
He saw Shen Zhao place the Dragon King Token directly in front of Fu Tianhan, almost touching his eyes.
"The rules of the Dragon King Hall, seeing the Dragon King Token is like seeing the Dragon King in person, what? Do you still dare to doubt this Young Master's identity?"
Shi Tongtian and Fu Tianhan were filled with disbelief.
Finally, Shi Tongtian couldn't help but ask, "Where did you get this Dragon King Token?"
Slap!
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Zhao had, at some point, flashed in front of Shi Tongtian and without a word, delivered a slap.
"Anyone who dares to be disrespectful to the Dragon King, how many lives do you think you have to waste?"
