Chapter 116 - Tang Hao Driven to Desperation

Immortal-grade medicinal herb — Jiupin Zizhi.

Just like that… gone!

Tang San, Flender, Liu Erlong, Dai Mubai, and the rest were completely dumbfounded. They had all assumed Zhou Sidong would hand over the immortal herb in his possession to help heal Yu Xiaogang.

Who would've guessed—right after he spoke, Liu Erlong went straight into berserk mode!

Ignoring Flender's attempts to stop her, seven spirit rings lit up beneath her feet, and a giant dragon wreathed in blazing flames rose behind her!

"How barbaric. They were the ones who came begging, and when he refuses, they immediately try to take it by force." Zhu Zhuqing looked at Liu Erlong with undisguised disdain.

"This is Shrek's so-called motto—'if we don't cause trouble, we're worthless.' Even when they're at fault, they can still act like they're completely in the right."

Zhou Sidong exposed their hypocrisy without mercy, and Flender's anger shot through the roof.

"Zhou Sidong! You're doing this on purpose!" Tang San saw Zhou Sidong tearing off the mask, so he stopped pretending as well.

"Yes, I'm doing it on purpose. Tang San, you were drooling over Senior Dugu's immortal herbs. Now that they're in my hands, you've actually gathered everyone to rob me. Isn't that a bit shameless?" Zhou Sidong asked coldly.

"You…" Tang San's chest rose and fell, furious to the point of losing control.

A single Jiupin Zizhi—just like that—gone. And fed to a little black cat. It was… blasphemy! A crime fit for heavenly punishment!

"What are you all standing around for? Everyone, attack! We're all here today—old grudges, new grudges—this is the time to settle them! Zhou Sidong! Hand over the immortal herb!" Ma Hongjun, seeing Liu Erlong charge forward, became the most excited of them all.

After knowing Zhou Sidong had the Jiguan Fenghuang Kui, which could cure his condition, Ma Hongjun went mad. He had been suffering from Evil Fire for six years. Ever since awakening his martial soul, he had been tortured by it, needing to visit the chicken coop Evil Fire periodically or he would explode and die.

And now… salvation was right in front of him!

Among all of them, Ma Hongjun was the most crazed. Two spirit rings lit beneath his feet, and he hid behind Liu Erlong, waiting for a chance to seize Zhou Sidong and beat him down before taking the herb.

"A bunch of trash." Zhou Sidong snorted, completely contemptuous.

"Xiao An, you're done eating. Time to work."

He patted the small black cat on his shoulder. With the Jiupin Zizhi absorbed, the new Xiao An was fully healed—and far stronger than before. These injuries were from fighting for favor with the old Xiao An!

"Meow~" (Leave it to me!)

Xiao An leapt off Zhou Sidong's shoulder, wings of the Evil God unfolding behind him. The razor-sharp wing edges slashed toward the charging Liu Erlong!

Facing Xiao An, Liu Erlong merely sneered, not taking him seriously at all.

"Zhou Sidong! I will skin you alive today!"

The Jiupin Zizhi was gone. Yu Xiaogang's last hope was gone. From now on he could only spend his life in a wheelchair.

Thinking of this, Liu Erlong's rage peaked, blood vessels filling her eyes.

But then, the tiny Xiao An suddenly expanded into a massive, terrifying form—fully restoring his true body—the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger!

A single sweep of his massive paw sent Liu Erlong flying and crashing into the ground, her body half-buried, trembling uncontrollably.

"ROAR!!!"

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger roared toward the sky, venting his fury.

"Erlong!"

Flender panicked and rushed to help her up.

"Sp… spirit beast? A tiger?"

Liu Erlong coughed blood. Her clothes were torn apart, and her right arm was broken.

"That's… Dark… Dark Demon Evil God Tiger! It's the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger!"

Xiao Wu stared in shock, unable to believe it was here.

"What?! That's the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger?!"

Tang San's breathing tightened. Impossible. How could such a terrifying spirit beast willingly follow Zhou Sidong?

In the books Yu Xiaogang collected, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was mentioned—an evil god descended upon a White Tiger, mutating it and turning its light attribute into darkness.

Thus, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was born.

"This… this spirit beast is over 50,000 years! No good! Everyone run!" Flender shouted.

But as soon as he turned—Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the rest were already halfway gone.

"You…"

Flender clenched his fists, then swallowed nervously at the sight of the massive tiger. "Zhou Sidong, you… I'll be going now."

Zhou Sidong smiled. "Sure. Xiao An, see him off."

The tiger grinned evilly, revealing razor fangs, and its scorpion-like Evil God tail whipped Flender into the sky until he disappeared.

A perfect recreation of the scene from Suotuo City!

"Xiao An, the guy with short hair and a blue shirt—that's Tang San. Go."

Zhou Sidong whispered.

The tiger's eyes filled with killing intent. It sprinted forward straight toward Tang San!

"No! It's coming for me!"

Ma Hongjun collapsed in terror. Facing a beast like that, all he wanted was to play dead.

The tiger swatted him into the sky like Flender. The two flew one after another back to Shrek Academy—smashing right into the already bedridden Yu Xiaogang.

Yu Xiaogang foamed at the mouth, body twitching. Being crushed by Flender was already terrible—now Ma Hongjun had joined. How miserable could his life get?

"Brother! Run! The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is coming!"

Xiao Wu recognized it immediately. As the big sister of the Titan Giant Ape and Azure Bull Python, she'd fought it before. Even a Title Douluo wasn't guaranteed victory against it.

The tiger ignored her and kept chasing Tang San.

Dai Mubai and the rest slowed down. When they realized the tiger wasn't targeting them, they stopped running entirely.

Tang San ran desperately, his legs a blur. They were at the border between Heaven Dou City and the Royal Academy—no one noticed them here.

"Zhou Sidong! I'll kill you!!!" Tang San cursed wildly while dodging for his life.

Hidden weapons, traps of Blue Silver Grass—none of it worked on the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.

Why is it only chasing me? Why not Dai Mubai?!

The tiger grew closer and closer. Tang San tried to change direction—

But the tiger instantly appeared ahead of him. A massive paw descended, blotting out the sky.

It landed with full force.

Crunch. Crack.

The tiger savored the sound.

This was the one. The human who killed him years later. No matter what, he would have revenge today.

When the tiger lifted its paw, Tang San was embedded in the ground, limbs twisted, barely breathing, staring helplessly as the tiger prepared the finishing blow—

Suddenly, a Haotian Hammer flew in, knocking the tiger aside and snatching Tang San away.

"ROAR!!!"

The tiger went berserk—someone had stolen its prey.

"Xiao An, come back."

At Zhou Sidong's call, the tiger reluctantly returned, transforming back into a small black cat.

Everyone else had fled or been hurt. Only Liu Erlong lay nearby, badly injured.

"Zhou Sidong… kill me if you want." Liu Erlong said weakly.

"Liu Erlong, let me ask you something. What exactly is it about Yu Xiaogang that you value?"

Zhou Sidong crouched beside her.

"Don't you dare insult Xiaogang!" Liu Erlong's eyes reddened.

"I'm not insulting him. I'm telling the truth. Back when I was a child, he schemed against me. When he failed, he recklessly provoked Senior Dugu and got himself beaten half-dead. And now you people actually came to demand herbs from me. You all really are something."

"Yu Xiaogang… haha… the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was completely right to expel him."

Liu Erlong stayed silent, unable to refute.

"You can lie there."

Zhou Sidong left with Xiao An and Zhu Zhuqing.

Only after they were gone did Dai Mubai and Ning Rongrong crawl out, carry Liu Erlong, and flee back to Shrek.

"Damn it! Shrek will remember this!" Dai Mubai swore.

In the forest

Tang Hao gently set his son down. Almost every bone in Tang San's body was broken—crushed by the tiger.

"Zhou! Si! Dong! I will kill you!!" Tang Hao roared to the heavens.

"Dad… Dad…" Tang San groaned in agony. Even breathing made his chest feel like it was tearing apart.

Tang Hao's heart felt like it was being stabbed. He wished he could tear Zhou Sidong apart on the spot.

"Little San, I'll take you to someone."

He lifted his son and disappeared into the forest.

"For him to get your immortal herbs, Tang San actually came with Flender and the others to rob you." Zhu Zhuqing frowned.

If not for Xiao An, things could've gone very wrong.

"A cornered dog jumps the wall. And they're worse than dogs. You heard Ma Hongjun—his obsession with the immortal herb is no less than Tang San's. Back in Sunset Forest, Tang San already wanted the herbs, but Old Poison had already given them to me. Now he sees me actually getting them, so he hates me to the bone. I have nothing to say about them." Zhou Sidong shook his head helplessly.

"That nonsense about 'not causing trouble is incompetence'… they're just shameless. Especially Yu Xiaogang—his face is thicker than a city wall."

"Tian Dou City isn't peaceful anymore." Zhu Zhuqing sighed. "Who was the one that saved Tang San just now?"

"Tang Hao." Zhou Sidong replied.

"Which Tang Hao?"

"Which other Tang Hao? The Tang Hao of the Haotian Sect."

"Haotian Sect… Haotian Hammer… Haotian Douluo Tang Hao!" Zhu Zhuqing gasped.

"You know him?"

"My parents mentioned him. They said he once beat the Pope of Spirit Hall and was expelled from the Haotian Sect. So Tang San and Tang Hao are father and son?"

"Yep. Biological father and son. Tang San has dual spirits—Haotian Hammer and Blue Silver Grass."

"No wonder he's so strong." Zhu Zhuqing sighed. "But since we've made a mortal enemy of Tang San, Tang Hao will never let us go."

"Zhuqing, don't be afraid." Zhou Sidong smirked.

"With you here, of course I'm not afraid. But with Tang Hao's temperament—you injured his son. He will definitely come for revenge."

"We'll deal with whatever comes. He's nothing I fear." Zhou Sidong said confidently.

"Where does your confidence come from?"

"My heart." Zhou Sidong grinned.

"Faith is invincible. Tang Hao may be strong, but not unbeatable. And right now… he can't threaten me anymore."

Having lost an arm and his spirit power weakened, Tang Hao was no longer the powerhouse he once was.

"I hope you're right." Zhu Zhuqing sipped her milk quietly.

Heaven Dou City bustled as usual.

Suddenly, the crowd turned to look in the same direction.

A black-robed man appeared, carrying a youth whose body looked completely shattered, limbs dangling, clothes torn, face covered in ash.

"Move! Move! Get out of the way!"

Tang Hao roared wildly, eyes red.

The crowd quickly opened a path. Any parent would understand his agony.

Soon, Tang Hao arrived at a grand building.

Two characters were written on the plaque: Moon Pavilion.

Tang Hao looked at the words, hesitated, but seeing his son groaning in pain, he clenched his jaw and chose to seek help. He had no other choice.

Tang San's condition was almost identical to Yu Xiaogang back then.

That Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was definitely over 50,000 years… perhaps even higher.

Tang Hao had no idea how Zhou Sidong controlled such a creature.

"Zhou Sidong—wait for me. Soon, I'll kill you myself." Tang Hao vowed internally.

He ignored the guards and burst inside.

The luxurious hall was filled with elegantly dressed noble ladies. A warm, joyous banquet was underway.

Music, dancing, elegance—until the black-robed man arrived.

The music stopped. Noise erupted.

"Who is that? Covered in dirt? Who let him in?" a lady in green covered her lips, waving a lace-gloved hand as if the air had been polluted.

"Dressed so cheaply—must be a commoner." another mocked mercilessly.

"Get out! You don't belong here!" someone shouted angrily.

"What happened?" A noblewoman in silver palace dress descended from the stairs—beautiful, elegant, unique among the crowd.

"Sorry, madam, we failed to stop them. Please forgive us." the guards bowed nervously.

"Forget it. Take them out."

But as the guards moved, Tang Hao released a terrifying aura—the temperature dropped instantly.

"Sir, are you causing trouble in my Moon Pavilion?" the noblewoman said sharply.

But when Tang Hao raised his head, her expression froze. That face—ruined, exhausted, but one she knew all too well.

"You…"

She suppressed her shock, but when she saw the dying Tang San in his arms, she felt something was terribly wrong.

"You two! Why haven't you removed them yet?!" she snapped to distract the crowd.

Tang Hao met her eyes briefly, then left with Tang San.

Outside, he waited in a secluded corner.

The noblewoman arrived shortly after.

"Brother." she said softly, eyes misting.

"Third Sister… I didn't want to disturb you. But my son… please, save him." Tang Hao kneeled, completely broken.

"We're family. Don't say anything more. Come with me." Tears flowed as she led them inside.
