The grenade Zhou Sidong threw exploded in Yu Xiaogang's hands, the resulting commotion throwing the entire Soul Hunting Forest into chaos.
The law enforcement team belonging to the Martial Soul Hall and the soldiers in charge of guarding the forest's perimeter rushed over at the first sign of the explosion.
"Success!"
Zhou Sidong had accomplished his mission. Simultaneously, his form began to dissipate, the two hours of time travel having expired.
When the smoke cleared, Yu Xiaogang was visible, covered in wounds and bloodstains. His left arm was gone, leaving only a bloodied stump hanging from his shoulder. His face was ashen, blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, and his entire body was covered in bullet wounds and burns from the high-temperature explosion.
One word described it.
Tragic!
"Teacher? Teacher!!"
Tang San scrambled to his feet from nearby. A wound marked his shoulder, but otherwise, he was unharmed. Because Yu Xiaogang had been in front, he had absorbed the majority of the grenade's damage.
Tang San endured the excruciating pain and stood up, walking to Yu Xiaogang's side. Looking at his battered teacher, whose left arm was missing, a surge of fury welled up within him.
"Teacher! Teacher, wake up!!"
Tang San shook him desperately, but Yu Xiaogang showed no signs of waking up.
"Fortunately, Teacher still has a breath."
Tang San finally breathed a sigh of relief after checking Yu Xiaogang's breath.
He dragged Yu Xiaogang under a tree. Then, Tang San's eyes narrowed as he took a grenade fragment from the tree trunk, which had numerous steel balls embedded in it.
Tang San looked at his teacher's injuries, then glanced around, shocked by the aftereffects of the explosion. "What kind of hidden weapon is this? It has such devastating power? If the power were even greater, it would probably rival my Tang Sect's number one hidden weapon, the Buddha's Fury Tang Lotus."
Tang San put the grenade fragment into his Twenty-Four Bridge Moonlit Night, and immediately used his Purple Demon Eyes. After searching for a long time, he found no one around. It seemed the person who threw that "stone" had already escaped.
"Damn it! If I catch you! I, Tang San, swear I will grind you to dust to relieve the hatred in my heart today!"
His teacher was seriously injured to protect him. If the teacher didn't receive timely treatment, it wouldn't be long before he might die. This was something Tang San didn't want to see.
Tang San glanced at his injured teacher and then at the yellow hundred-year Soul Ring spinning above the Mandala Snake's corpse.
At this moment, rustling sounds came from the forest.
A group of people wearing Martial Soul Hall uniforms walked over. They looked around, noticing that most of the trees showed obvious signs of scorching. Only a child and a middle-aged man covered in wounds were present.
"Little friend, what's your name? What exactly happened here? Did the explosion just happen here?" The leader of the Martial Soul Hall members squatted down and asked.
Seeing that the newcomers were the Martial Soul Hall's law enforcement team, Tang San finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had heard from his teacher before that the Martial Soul Hall's law enforcement team patrolled the Soul Hunting Forest and checked the hand cards at any time.
Tang San looked at Yu Xiaogang, who was being carried away, his face full of worry. He then nodded, "Uncle, my name is Tang San. I don't know what happened either? There was a sudden explosion. If my teacher hadn't protected me, I'm afraid I would have... Uncle, you must save my teacher."
"Don't worry, we'll take your teacher back."
The leader of the enforcement team briefly surveyed the scene, preparing to take Tang San away.
Suddenly, the sky was enveloped in a golden light, and countless golden petals rained down from above.
A man in golden armor, with a seductive face and heavy makeup, slowly walked out. He pointed at Tang San and asked, "Little friend, I heard your name is Tang San, is that right?"
Tang San swallowed hard, thinking: What's going on today? Did I not check the almanac before going out? Or did I offend someone I shouldn't have? Why is everyone chasing me?
He had lived in Holy Soul Village since he was a child, away from the world, just a child from a poor family.
Although the person in front of him was smiling, his eyes revealed a chilling killing intent. He wants to kill me!
Tang San smiled awkwardly and said, "Uncle, my name is Tang Er, you heard wrong."
"Is that so?"
Yue Guan smiled slightly, and the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum in his palm condensed into a golden blade, the blade pointing directly at Tang San.
"Whether your name is Tang San or Tang Er, better to kill a thousand than let one go! Die!"
Tang San: "!!!"
Zhou Sidong returned to the present world.
He walked out of the colorful passage and returned to his familiar room.
Yu Xiaogang is really naive, daring to hold a grenade with one hand. That explosion must have been quite something. Judging by the explosion's intensity, Yu Xiaogang probably didn't die, right? Zhou Sidong thought.
At this moment, Xiao Xue flashed in front of Zhou Sidong and said, "Yu Xiaogang didn't die. He endured the direct hit from the grenade you developed. His left arm disappeared, and he'll only be a cripple from now on. The grenade you made was entirely made of ordinary iron. Although powerful, it's only effective against Soul Masters below level forty. Yu Xiaogang's soul power is only at level twenty-nine, but he's from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. No matter how useless he is, he must have eaten plenty of natural treasures as a child, making his body slightly stronger than some ordinary people."
"If that's the case, if I improve the grenade's material, would it be able to threaten even Title Douluo?" Zhou Sidong hypothesized.
You see, the main material of the Buddha's Fury Tang Lotus is Cold Heart Iron Essence, an extremely rare metal.
If the grenade material was replaced with Cold Heart Iron Essence, wouldn't its power rival the Buddha's Fury Tang Lotus?
"It's not impossible. Back to the main topic, not long after you left, the pursuers sent by your mother started chasing Tang San," Xiao Xue said.
Zhou Sidong was surprised for a moment, "So soon! Who came?"
"Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, along with a team composed of many Soul Sages and Soul Emperors," Xiao Xue replied.
"Then… is Tang San dead?"
If Tang San were dead, the parallel time and space mission would be completed.
"No."
Xiao Xue finished speaking and shook her head, "He was saved by Tang Hao at a critical moment. I think Tang Hao will temporarily take Tang San away from Notting Academy. You've used up all your chances of traveling through parallel time and space. The next time you can open it is only when you obtain a new Soul Ring."
After losing two chances to travel through parallel universes, Zhou Sidong collapsed onto his bed, feeling completely drained.
"Mmh."
Zhou Sidong nodded, then sat up and began to cultivate silently, striving to increase his soul power to level thirty as soon as possible.
At the same time, in the Soul Hunting Forest of the main world.
Tang San and Yu Xiaogang were wandering through the forest, with Yu Xiaogang diligently searching for a suitable Soul Ring for Tang San.
Along the way, they found the corpse of a Mandala Snake that had been dead for several days. Unfortunately, the Soul Ring was already gone, seemingly taken by someone else.
"Xiao San, let's keep looking. If we still can't find anything... I think that ten-year-old Lonely Bamboo is actually quite suitable for you," Yu Xiaogang said helplessly.
