289. Chapter 289 Tang San Dies

Qianxunji gazed at Tang San, who wore a painful expression beneath his feet yet remained stubborn, and lightly remarked:

"Character, I didn't expect you to still have some backbone; since you're so stubborn, I'll increase the force."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qianxunji suddenly released his foot that had been stepping on Tang San.

Ah! With the pressure suddenly gone from his brain, Tang San felt a wave of relief and was finally no longer in pain.

Just then, Qianxunji's raised foot suddenly came down hard onto Tang San's head.

"No……"

Tang San looked in terror as the foot rapidly loomed in his vision, and he shouted fearfully:

"Bang!"

With a bang, Qianxunji directly stomped hard on Tang San's head.

"Crack…… crack……"

In an instant, Tang San's skull shattered, revealing a brain mottled red and white.

However, Qianxunji enveloped the brain with divine power, preventing it from being crushed.

But precisely because Qianxunji protected Tang San's brain, he did not die immediately and instead felt the excruciating pain of his shattered skull more directly.

Tang San clutched his brain, which was shrouded in divine power, and cried out in agony:

"Ah…… Mom, it hurts so much… I'm dying of pain……"

"Ah…… pain…… Qianxunji, give me a quick death."

Qianxunji's mouth twitched slightly, and he said the same thing:

"You beg me."

Hearing Qianxunji's words, the inwardly proud Tang San still roared:

"I'll beg you for nothing; even if you step on me ten thousand times, I won't beg you."

"Ten thousand times? Since you have such a demand, I will definitely have to beg you."

In the next moment, Qianxunji waved his big hand, a Self-healing Power enveloped Tang San, restoring his shattered brain in less than a second.

Tang San felt his brain, which was instantly whole and unharmed; although he couldn't grasp Qianxunji's intention, he knew it couldn't be anything good, so he wandered and asked:

"What do you mean by this?"

"Just that meaning."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qianxunji again brought his foot down hard onto Tang San's head.

"Boom!"

Tang San only felt his brain as if struck by a hundred thousand mountains, a wave of intense pain surging, his head bursting like a watermelon dropped from a high building.

Yet Tang San's brain remained shrouded in Qianxunji's black divine power, so he did not die instantly.

Tang San only felt excruciating pain in his brain, clutching the divine‑power‑shrouded organ and howling miserably:

"Ah…… pain…… pain…… I'm about to die from pain…… stop stepping on me…… stop messing with me……"

Qianxunji ignored him, and with another wave of his big hand shot a Self‑healing Power onto Tang San's brain.

Within a second, Tang San's head was completely restored.

But in Tang San's eyes now there was no pride, no stubbornness—only bewilderment, fear, and terror.

Just then, Tang San felt a shadow approaching; it turned out Qianxunji was about to step on him again.

Having long feared the pain of a shattered skull, Tang San now had no arrogance left and hastily begged for mercy:

"Qianxunji, enough, stop stepping on me—I'm begging you."

"I'm begging you now—please don't step on me."

However, Qianxunji remained unmoved, merely saying coldly:

"I gave you a chance and you wasted it; now you beg me, it's too late!"

Then he stepped down again.

"Bang!"

"Ah…… ah…… my head…… don't step on it……"

"Bang…… bang…… bang…… bang……"

Inside the hall, the sounds of brains shattering echoed one after another.

"Ah…… ah…… my head…… ah……"

"Qianxunji, I truly beg you—don't step on me…… ah…… I beg you……"

At the same time, Tang San's anguished, miserable wails rose, along with his incessant pleas for mercy.

"Bang…… bang…… bang……"

"Ah…… ah…… I'll kowtow to you…… don't step on me……"

"995……996……997……998……999……1000!"

Finally, after Qianxunji had stepped on him a thousand times, he stopped the relentless stomping.

Then Qianxunji unleashed another Self‑healing Power, healing Tang San.

"Huff…… huff……"

Tang San gasped heavily, his heart easing a little, and he muttered to himself:

"Finally, finally it's over."

But thinking of Qianxunji's terror, Tang San immediately dropped to his knees and kowtowed three resounding times toward Qianxunji.

"Thud…… thud…… thud!"

Three deep, resonant kowtows sounded, showing Tang San's utter sincerity as he knocked his head with great effort.

After kowtowing three times, Tang San knelt on the ground, lifted his head to look at Qianxunji, and said fearfully:

"Qian... His Holiness the Pope, may I ask if my kowtowing was sincere?"

"Not bad." Qianxunji said with an indifferent expression.

After receiving Qianxunji's answer, Tang San breathed a sigh of relief, for from Qianxunji's answer he could judge that Qianxunji would not punish him as before.

At first, he was indeed arrogantly overbearing, feeling that even if Qianxunji killed him, he would not be afraid.

But when Qianxunji stepped on his head one foot after another, crushing it to pieces, that intense pain made him afraid.

Moreover, halfway through he kept begging for mercy, but Qianxunji did not slacken his steps in the slightest, insisting on stomping his head until it burst a thousand times.

Even, Tang San could guess that if Qianxunji were not too lazy to continue stomping him, he would really have to stomp his head until it burst ten thousand times.

Therefore, having witnessed Qianxunji's terror, he was thoroughly frightened, and only after Qianxunji stopped stomping his head after a thousand times did he immediately kowtow and beg for mercy.

The effect was also obvious; Qianxunji indeed did not continue stomping him.

Of course, he also understood that the party he had offended, Qianxunji, would certainly not let him off.

Now, he only hopes that Qianxunji will give him a quick death, and then, as he guessed, he will be able to transmigrate to another world once more and gain new life.

Moreover, this is his only way to survive.

Because in the Douluo world, Qianxunji is already invincible, the entire continent and the God Realm are under his control.

If he wanted to defeat Qianxunji in the Douluo world, even training for ten thousand years or a million years would not suffice.

Therefore, the only hope is to place it in the possibility of transmigrating to another world after death; perhaps he could cultivate to a realm higher than Qianxunji's current level, and then directly break the plane and slay Qianxunji.

This is Tang San's plan, and also his last hope.

Thinking of this, Tang San again kowtowed three times in succession and begged for mercy:

"Your Holiness the Pope, please give me a quick death, kill me; Tang San will remember your great kindness forever."

Qianxunji glanced at the attribute panel showing the remaining time of the transmigration talisman; only twenty hours were left.

Then, he would no longer waste time on Tang San; after dealing with Tang San, he would spend the final moments of affection with Bibidong, Gu Yue Na, the Life God King, and Bo Sai Xi, and then transmigrate in happiness.

"Character, since you beg me to kill you, I will fulfill your wish." (End of chapter)
