Chapter 392: Negotiation Between Both Sides
Thanks to Kong's timely arrival, Xue Di and Bing Di narrowly survived Tang San's assault.
At this moment, the skies above the entire Extreme North were filled with thunder and dark energy.
"You—who exactly are you?"
Gazing at the man before him, someone both familiar and unfamiliar, Kong blinked. Eyes full of curiosity, he couldn't help but ask, "Why are you helping Tang San?"
"I already said, I—"
Just as Tang San was about to speak, a cold and ancient voice rang out: "You are the Thunder God? No… the former Thunder God should have been slain by me. In that case, who are you?"
Hearing this, Kong's eyes widened, his expression filled with shock.
What the hell was that thing saying? The former Thunder God was killed by it?
Was it seriously not joking?
The Thunder God of the Douluo Universe—even at his weakest—was a First-Class God, and among those, a particularly powerful one.
Yet even such a powerful deity had been slain by this creature? How could Kong not be shaken and confused?
"Thunder God King!"
Just as Kong was about to ask more, a gentle and melodious voice echoed from the heavens: "I am the Life God King. To avoid wasting time, I'll be brief. The opponent you're facing now is the first trace of darkness born with the universe itself. Its strength was so immense that not even the Dragon God and his Nine Dragon Kings could destroy it."
"So if you can't kill it, or can't defeat it, then lure it to the Divine Realm. We'll face it together."
The Douluo Continent was too fragile to withstand a battle between God Kings. If such a confrontation happened here, not only would the entire Douluo Star be destroyed, but the surrounding star systems would also suffer collateral damage.
She explained all this to the Thunder God King because she feared he might act recklessly, youthful and overconfident, determined to challenge the creature and test its power—without regard for the consequences.
The resulting destruction would be irreversible.
"The first darkness… not even the Dragon God and his Nine Dragon Kings could stop it?"
Hearing the warning from the Goddess of Life, Kong furrowed his brow. He simply couldn't understand why such a supreme being would choose to help Tang San.
At present, Tang San had no connections, no background, no talent. Even the Asura God had given up on him.
Even if, for argument's sake, Tang San still possessed part of Douluo Star's destiny—so what? What use would that be to a being of such strength?
Let alone the mere luck of Douluo Star—if that thing wished, it could wipe out the entire planet without effort.
With that in mind, Kong looked toward the youth shrouded in black mist and asked, "Why did you choose Tang San? He's just a worthless wreck now. What value does he have to you?"
"You're the worthless one! Your whole family's worthless! I'll *********!"
Unable to contain his fury after being slandered, Tang San roared back with a barrage of curses.
Damn it all—he was a disciple of the Tang Sect, had mastered the Xuantian Record, and could craft peerless hidden weapons with ease. And yet, this backwater native of the Douluo Continent dared call him trash? How could anyone tolerate that?
Kong: Backwater native? Who are you calling a native? Am I a native?
Raiden Shogun and Ying: No idea… what about us? Are we considered natives?
"See? He's triggered!"
Hearing Tang San's outburst, Kong grinned widely and went on without care: "Someone like that—why bother choosing him? If you ask me, just give him up. Go do your own thing. What do you say?"
This creature didn't seem easy to handle, judging from its name alone. If possible, separating the two was the best course. After all, he hadn't finished humiliating Tang San yet.
"If I were to devour the entire Douluo Star and refine it… would you be able to stand by and watch?"
The black mist fell silent for a moment, then asked a very important question.
Although Tang San was a suitable vessel, the current circumstances made it clear—fighting to the death against a God King was certainly not a wise choice.
"Senior, you can't abandon me! We agreed to face hardship together!"
Hearing this, Tang San's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly spoke up.
That damn creature actually wanted to ditch him and flee on its own? What a waste of such a domineering title.
If it were him, he would've made that so-called Thunder God King understand who the true ruler of this world was.
"Silence!"
A wave of cold aura surged forth, ruthlessly suppressing Tang San. The black mist then turned its heavy gaze toward the youth not far away.
In its eyes, Tang San was nothing more than an ant—trash to be discarded at any time. Even the so-called kings of the Divine Realm were insignificant.
Because, aside from the universal source will of this cosmos, it itself was the oldest and most powerful being in the universe.
It ruled over all the dark matter of the world. It had endured countless ages and witnessed innumerable powerhouses. As long as darkness continued to exist and the Douluo Universe remained intact, it would never truly perish.
Suppressed by the black mist, Tang San's face was filled with hatred. Very good—this damn thing had already set itself on the path to death.
"No."
Under the gaze of the black mist, Kong shook his head and said calmly, "Douluo Star is my home. There are people I care about here. No matter what, I won't let you destroy it."
Kong's stance was firm—there would be no compromise on this matter.
"What if not Douluo Star, but some other star system instead?" the black mist backed down another step.
Right now, it was too weak—far from its peak. Though it couldn't be fully killed, the state of being constantly injured and healing was unpleasant, to say the least.
"Well…"
Just as Kong was thinking about how to respond, another anxious voice came from the heavens above.
"Thunder God King, don't agree to it!"
"Not a single word from that thing's mouth is trustworthy—it can't be believed!"
"That's right! It's the Primordial Darkness, the first evil entity. Like a dog that can't stop eating shit—if you agree to it now, maybe Douluo Star will be fine for a while, but when it recovers its strength, everything will be lost!"
"If you ask me, strike it while it's down—end it now. Kill it in the cradle. That way, the entire universe will be safe!"
…
The five God Kings each shouted their warnings in haste, fearing that Kong might not understand the consequences and agree on the spot.
Although they didn't know exactly how powerful the Thunder God King had become, they believed that dealing with a heavily injured Primordial Darkness should be within his capabilities.
Once he brought that thing to the Divine Realm, with all of them lying in wait with prepared killing blows—everything would be sealed.
