"My name is Tang San." Yunlong gently smiled. I'm your great-grandson."
"Eh?!" Tang Chen's eyes went wide for a moment.
He quickly grasped Yunlong's shoulder and looked at his face slightly, which strangely didn't resemble him.
"If you think I do not look like you. It was because I resembled my mother more." Yunlong calmly said.
Tang Chen slowly nodded and released a heavy sigh because it's been a really long time, even his great-grandson had already this big.
Not to mention, Tang Chen couldn't remember anything after the 8th trial, which caused him to become anxious about his clan's condition.
"What about the clan... Are they okay?" Tang Chen silently asked.
Yunlong calmly told a story about Tang Hao and Ah Yin, who fought the Spirit Hall but led them to be abandoned by the clear sky clan because the clan didn't want to take a risk.
"I see, to think such a thing happened when I wasn't there." Tang Chen furrowed his brow.
Without Tang Chen's presence, a level 99 titled douluo. The clear sky clan basically couldn't risk being destroyed by the Spirit Hall.
"It seemed Qian Daoliu kept his promise..." Tang Chen softly muttered.
"Hmm, who's Qian Daoliu? Um..." Yunlong awkwardly asked because it was kind of weird to call Tang Chen great-grandfather.
Of course, he played his fake character very well to the point, didn't know about Qian Daoliu's existence.
"You can call me Grandpa Chen." Tang Chen calmly answered because he was kind of happy to meet his great-grandson.
Even though Tang Chen was unhappy with the recent news, he couldn't change the past events that had already happened.
Tang Chen moved his gaze slightly to the north or precisely the ocean's direction and naturally answered, "About Qian Daoliu, He's my rival."
"You rival?" Yunlong titled his head.
"Well, let's not talk about that." Tang Chen quickly changed the topic and moved his gaze to Kaguya. "Hmm, who is this girl?"
"Ah... She's." Yunlong awkwardly scratched the back of his head and flushed slightly, which caused Tang Chen to chuckle.
"Hee, I see... It's good to know that my great-grandson had a great taste." Tang Chen suddenly grinned.
"G-Grandpa Chen, please don't tease me like that." Yunlong felt ashamed, which was a fake expression.
Tang Chen approached Kaguya and asked, "What is your name?"
"Yin Yue." Kaguya calmly answered.
Kaguya didn't know how to respond to Tang Chen's sudden question, so she quickly decided on a random name that reflected herself.
"Grandpa Chen, I was actually here for Death God Domain." Yunlong suddenly intercepted.
"Hao'er told you this, right?" Tang Chen turned around and solemnly looked at Yunlong, who naturally nodded his head.
Tang Chan looked around the slaughter city for a moment and frowned because the scenery changed so much. There was a great fight that happened here.
"Follow me." Tang Chen slowly walked away to a particular part of the city, which surprisingly didn't get destroyed.
Yunlong and Kaguya followed him, and sometimes Tang Chen would ask what happened in the world outside.
Even though Yunlong had already told him a little, Tang Chen was still curious about the progress of the current world.
Cough!
Tang Chen suddenly coughed blood and felt his inner organ trembled slightly, which caused him to frown.
"Grandpa, are you okay?" Yunlong hurriedly supported Tang Chen. "Here, eat this pill. It will heal you."
He handed a silver pill to Tang Chen, who looked at it with a solemn expression.
"What is the effect of this pill?" Tang Chen asked solemnly.
"This pill's name is "Silver Dew Pill ." Its effect is to heal one's body." Yunlong confidently answered.
Tang Chen took the pill and ate it spontaneously, which led him to discover warm energy washed through his body.
"Does it work?" Yunlong worriedly looked at Tang Chen's condition.
Yunlong actually fed Tang Chen with a poison pill. Even though he looks fine now, the poison will slowly cover his internal organs.
Tang Chen would feel relieved in a few seconds because the poison would warm his internal organs, but of course, he misunderstood as if he felt healed.
Silver Dew Pill was one of the most potent poison pills Yunlong had created, and it took him one year to perfect with thousands of poisons.
If only had enough test subjects, Yunlong could perfect this pill to the point, a level 99 titled douluo would die instantly.
Unfortunately, a titled douluo wasn't growing like a weed, so he really couldn't do anything about it.
"I'm fine. No, I actually feel so great ." Tang Chen felt relieved, which caused Yunlong to smirk inside.
"Thank god, it works." Yunlong released a sigh of relief.
"Did you make this pill?" Tang Chen slowly calmed his breathing.
"Mhm." Yunlong smiled brightly.
'Ah, my clan birthed a genius alchemist, what a fortune.' Tang Chen shook his head.
Tang Chen remembered only a few clan members could do alchemy, and they were not as talented as his great-grandson.
'It looked like the clan would be revived sooner or later, even without my presence.' Tang Chen thought while smiling slightly.
They continued their walks and arrived at a great gate filled with symbols and domineering killing intent.
"This place was not like this before..." Tang Chen frowned while touching the great gate, which shone with a crimson gleam as if responding to him.
The red sword mark on Tang Chen's forehead glowed for a second, and the great gate slowly opened.
Krieeekk! Boom!
The whole gate was opened and revealed a crimson path, which was the Hell Road.
"Have you ever drunk Hell's Dew?" Tang Chen looked at the familiar crimson path.
"You mean Bloody Mary?" Yunlong returned with a confused expression.
"What, Bloody Mary?" Tang Chen gazed back at Yunlong with a clueless expression. "I felt the connection, so you should have drunk it before, but why did the name change, hmm?
Yunlong shrugged his shoulders and replied, "The person who possessed might change it."
"I thought so..." Tang Chen responded quietly.
"If you had drunk Hell's Dew before, then you're qualified to enter the Hell Road."
"However, when you enter through the asura gate, you shall be tested physically and mentally."
"Combined with the fact you couldn't use your spirit skill because of the Hell's Dew effect. Hell Road will become extremely difficult because it abruptly was filled with powerful monsters and some great illusion."
"It's okay... I'm not going to rely too much on my spirit skill." Yunlong naturally stated, which caused Tang Chen to nod in consent.
"Are you going to enter the Hell Road with us?" Kaguya suddenly opened her mouth, which caught Tang Chen off guard.
"I'm not, sadly." Tang Chen responded with a wry smile.
"How sad... Because it will end here now." Yunlong suddenly added while releasing a sigh.
Cough!
"What do you mean-." Tang Chen coughed a mouthful of blood.
He fell to the ground and had a shocked expression on his face.
"Who are you actually..." Tang Chen coldly stared at Yunlong, who had a stoic expression on his face.
Yunlong casually grasped thin air, and Greed turned into a black sword.
"Me? I'm Yunlong." Yunlong answered while placing the sword edge on Tang Chen's neck.
Tang Chen couldn't hold his anger. His body quickly was flushed with bright red color, but Yunlong's poison was just too potent for him.
"The pill I gave to you before, it was a poison," Yunlong said, which left Tang Chen speechless.
"Y-You..." Tang Chen felt his heart throbbed in pain. "What is your motive? Why don't you kill me already!"
"Of course, I couldn't kill you... My motive is the asura god's inheritance after all." Yunlong shrugged his shoulders. "Plus, I couldn't open this gate without your help."
Tang Chen's eyes widened and muttered, "So you have planned this and used me."
Yunlong grinned and replied, "Yes."
"..." Tang Chen had never felt so angry in his entire life.
Tang Chen literally has been deceived by someone, a random person who took an opportunity and probably did this for evil.
He felt a great shame in his heart because he couldn't keep his promise to her.
"Are you thinking about Bo Saixi?" Yunlong abruptly opened his mouth, which caused Tang Chen to open his eyes.
"H-How did you know?" Tang Chen hardly questioned because his entire body basically has been contaminated by poison.
"It's a secret." Yunlong raised his sword. "Well, goodbye. Tang Chen."
"Answer me-!" Tang Chen shouted in anger.
Slash!
[You have killed a weakened Limit Titled Douluo]
[Mortal Sin: Gluttony activated]
[You have received an abundant spirit, soul, spiritual energy]
[You have obtained 100,000 years old spirit ring]
[A piece of memory was triggered]
Yunlong felt blank for a moment, and a fight between Tang Chen and the Nine-Headed Bat King appeared in his head.
A black-haired woman suddenly arrived with a black scythe in her hand. and she looked at Tang Chen with disgust for some reason. "This is his inheritor..." She coldly said.
"How disappointing."
A blood storm covered Tang Chen's body, and a black scythe danced in the darkness, attacking him relentlessly.
"Take his body. I want you to corrupt this disgusting place for me. Create a place, which will be a shame for that man." The woman stated coldly.
The woman disappeared into thin air, and Nine-Headed Bat King roared in agony because she left.
"Don't leave me here!"
"You promised me greatness!"
"AAAAHHHHHH!"
Yunlong opened his eyes, and he came back to reality. "Rakshaha god...' He whispered.
He looked at the headless body and burned it into ash. Though like when he killed Tang Hao, a few spirit bones also were buried inside of ashes.
"Yunlong... Why did you kill him?" Kaguya quietly asked while looking at the pile of ash.
Yunlong moved his gaze to Hell Road and indifferently answered, "I don't want to take a risk."
