Black World, God Realm Committee.
" Tang San's matter can be put on hold for now. But—"
In the God Realm Committee, God of Destruction stared at Tang San and said, word by word:
"But you may be spared the death penalty, but you cannot escape punishment."
Tang San raised an eyebrow: "What do you want?"
"Your position as God-King remains unchanged—after all, you will be needed to fight the enemy next. But your decision-making power will be temporarily stripped from now on, and you will not be allowed to participate in specific decisions."
The voice of God of Destruction was cold and resolute:
"Whether it's the upcoming Sky Screen comparison or the preparations for the fusion of the two worlds, all major decisions must be voted on by the five members of the God Realm Committee, and only those approved by a majority can be implemented. You, Tang San, only have one vote."
"This is your punishment for interfering in the mortal realm without authorization. Do you accept it?"
Tang San was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed. What kind of punishment was this?
"Clothes."
He answered decisively.
God of Destruction was taken aback—he hadn't expected Tang San to agree so readily.
Tang San turned around and looked back at the light screen, his voice calm:
"Destruction, believe it or not, even if I didn't intervene, Huo Yuhao of that World might not have made it to the end."
"Fate is a thing... with too many variables."
He paused, his gaze deepening.
"Besides, do you really think that Huo Yuhao of White World relied entirely on himself?"
"His teacher Electrolux —that Necromancer—do you know his background? He comes from another world, a world completely different from Douluo's. His Necromancy is not within the God Realm's system of laws at all."
" Huo Yuhao owes his success to that otherworldly Old Freak."
"And I..."
He didn't say anything more.
But everyone understood his subtext—
What I did was simply to guide the Huo Yuhao of this world onto a more secure path.
God of Destruction snorted coldly and said mockingly:
"Didn't Huo Yuhao in this world have Electrolux's help? Why is there such a big difference in their cultivation levels when they started from the same point, with the help of the Million-Year Soul Beast and the remnant soul?"
"Isn't this your 'masterpiece'?"
Upon hearing this, Tang San's face darkened. He was about to retort when he saw that both Lie Yan and Goddess of Life were shaking their heads at him.
Seeing this, Ji Dong coughed lightly and steered the conversation back on track:
"Alright, let's leave the past behind for now. Next, we need to discuss this properly— Sky Screen's disadvantage is a foregone conclusion, so what preparations should we, God Realm, make?"
Blazing Flame nodded: "That Huo Yuhao from White World created the Reincarnation God Realm, and he has dragons, an undead army, and other allies under his command. As for us..."
She paused, then smiled wryly: "Besides the few of us, I'm afraid we can't hold off the rest of Divinity."
God of Destruction shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily true. Although Huo Yuhao created his own God Realm at the age of twenty-two, which shows his talent, it also means that he hasn't accumulated much at the God King level. Moreover, the fact that he was able to create his own God Realm means that there are no other God Realms in that World."
"In this way, the number of Divinities in that World won't be too large, and they'll all have only recently broken through, so their strength will be quite different from ours!"
Upon hearing this, Tang San glanced at God of Destruction with some surprise, not expecting God of Destruction to have such insights.
As someone who had been through it all, especially knowing the Douluo Continent best, he had naturally discovered what God of Destruction had said.
He was just thinking that he could gain an advantage in the future by doing this, after all, no matter how strong Huo Yuhao was, could he be stronger than him?
He just didn't expect that God of Destruction would see through this.
As for the other three god-kings, they also showed expressions of deep agreement.
Goddess of Life whispered, "Could we contact the God Realm of that World? The Sky Screen says that after the two Worlds merge, there will be a battle for initial power. We're at a disadvantage in the Sky Screen right now, and then..."
"It's no use." God of Destruction shook his head. " The rules of Sky Screen are very clear: the initial weights are determined by the comparison results. We've lost, and that's it. We can't change it."
"It's impossible to forcibly increase Huo Yuhao's cultivation level now; there's no time left. The outcome of this comparison is irreversible!"
Ji Dong pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Since that's the case, according to what God of Destruction said before, we can only approach it from another angle now—"
His eyes flickered:
" Huo Yuhao of the White World, no matter how strong he is, is still just one person. His God Realm is newly established, and the number of Divinities is limited. But our Douluo God Realm has existed for countless years and has a profound foundation."
"When the two worlds truly merge, the competition will not necessarily be about the strength of top-tier combat power."
"But... who can hold out until the end."
Tang San's eyes flashed, and he asked feignedly, "You mean..."
Ji Dong nodded: "Full preparation for war."
"Mobilize all resources of the God Realm to enhance Divinity's combat power. At the same time, we also need to make preparations in advance on the lower realm—our Douluo Continent. In case the two realms merge, the battlefield will not only be in the God Realm..."
He paused, his voice slightly lower:
"We cannot lose even in the lower realms."
A brief silence fell over the hall. The Sky Screen had revealed far too little information, and they had no idea how different the lower realm of the other world was from their own.
But no matter how much development occurs, the gap will not be too large. They do not believe that anyone can make a world develop rapidly in just a few years (excluding Huo Yuhao's cultivation time).
In response to Ji Dong's suggestion, God of Destruction slowly spoke:
"Okay, we'll do it your way."
He stood up and his gaze swept over the crowd:
"From now on, God Realm is in full combat readiness. All Divinities, regardless of level, must participate."
"As for Tang San— "
He glanced at Tang San:
"Although your decision-making power has been stripped away, your combat strength remains. You will need to contribute to the upcoming preparations."
Tang San nodded slightly: "Of course."
God of Destruction said no more and turned to walk out of the hall.
As he reached the door, he suddenly stopped and, without turning his head, said:
" Tang San, you made your parents become the Douluo Continent" Don't think I don't know about the affairs of the Lord of World.
"Once the matter of merging the two realms is settled, we can settle the score for violating the rules of God Realm later."
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared outside the hall.
Goddess of Life sighed softly, nodded to Tang San, and followed her husband away.
Ji Dong and Lie Yan exchanged a glance and stood up as well.
" Tang San," Ji Dong said softly, "Destruction may have a bad temper, but he's right. This time… you really went too far."
Tang San did not turn around.
Ji Dong shook his head and left with Lie Yan.
In the vast temple of deities, only Tang San remained.
He stood alone in front of the light screen, gazing at the silent boy with his head down in the image, and at the figure above all the heavens in another world, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
a long time.
He spoke softly, his voice barely audible:
" Yuhao …my good son-in-law."
"Do you really think that by becoming a god-king, you can escape fate?"
"Oh..."
A slight smile played at the corners of his lips, and a glint of something unreadable flashed in his eyes:
" Reincarnation God King? Interesting."
"Then let's see—"
"Who will have the last laugh?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure slowly disappeared into the Temple of Gods.
Only the light screen remained, still suspended above the round table, quietly playing the growth trajectory of the two Huo Yuhao.
Below the Sky Screen.
The gears of fate are slowly turning.
