Chapter 311: Tang San Severely Injured, Yu Xiaogang Steps In to Rescue

Zhu Zhuqing's soul skill descended upon Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer like a bolt of lightning.

The Clear Sky Hammer hummed, and a moment later, tiny cracks began to appear on its surface, spreading outward like ice fractures.

Soon, the entire surface of the Clear Sky Hammer was covered in cracks, resembling an intricate totem pattern.

"Bang!"

With a deafening explosion, the Clear Sky Hammer shattered instantly, transforming into a cloud of white mist that slowly dissipated in the air like a dreamlike phantom.

Tang San knew things were dire; his Clear Sky Hammer was his pride, but now it had shattered like foam.

In his haste, his Spirit Power Shield instantly enveloped his entire body like a transparent barrier.

This shield was his final line of defense, and he could only pin his hopes on it being able to withstand Zhu Zhuqing's attack.

However, at this very moment, Zhu Zhuqing's soul skill tore through the air and struck Tang San's Spirit Power Shield.

This force was like a violent torrent, mercilessly destroying Tang San's defense.

The shield shattered instantly, cracking like a mirror, with fragments scattering everywhere.

The power of this attack was like a wildfire, impossible to block.

Tang San felt an invisible force rush toward him like a giant wave, knocking him down from the sky.

He tumbled and crashed into the ground, sending dust flying and engulfing him.

Unfortunately, the Spirit Power Shield could hardly withstand this attack from Zhu Zhuqing; it shattered instantly, and the soul skill struck Tang San directly.

As the dust settled, a bottomless pit was revealed, with Tang San lying in the center, his face pale, his hand still tightly gripping the shattered Clear Sky Hammer.

A shocking wound appeared on Tang San's body, as deep as an abyss in the dark of night.

It was located on his abdomen, running from left to right like a red bolt of lightning, tearing through his clothes and revealing the texture of his muscles.

The edges of the wound were neat, as if cut by an invisible blade.

The blood gushing from the wound was no longer ordinary red, but streaked with gold.

Although Tang San covered the wound with his strong hand, the blood could not stop flowing.

It seeped through his fingers, wetting his palm and drawing bright red streaks down his arm.

His gaze was piercing; even though his body struggled in pain, his eyes were as sharp as a tiger's.

He knew he could not fall at this moment.

Tang San raised his head, sparks of anger and determination flickering in his eyes like a wildfire burning on a wasteland, inextinguishable.

His gaze was as sharp as an eagle's, carrying an irresistible power as he stared fixedly at Zhu Zhuqing in the sky, as if to pierce through her.

Zhu Zhuqing floated above in the sky, mysterious as if drifting on the clouds. She looked down at Tang San and said in a calm tone:

"Tang San, Jerry has always been very cautious regarding you; it seems Jerry overestimated you."

Zhu Zhuqing's words cut through Tang San's soul like a blade.

The anger in Tang San's heart burned like a raging fire, yet even stronger was a chill filled with despair.

He realized his carelessness in ignoring Zhu Zhuqing's powerful attack had landed him in a desperate situation.

He had thought that even if he were severely injured, he would still have a chance to escape, but now, another god-level powerhouse, Xue Ke, was tailing him, shattering his hopes.

Xue Ke's eyes were like ice, coldly watching Tang San.

Tang San's body trembled; he felt an endless darkness swallowing him, causing him to lose all sense of direction.

Is it finally over?

Although Tang San was unwilling to accept it, he felt powerless in the face of the current situation.

"Tang San, prepare to die!"

Before Zhu Zhuqing finished speaking, she began to gather all her strength, preparing to deliver a fatal blow to Tang San.

This powerful aura made the air heavy, as if a destructive battle were about to erupt.

Watching Zhu Zhuqing's stance, Tang San knew this was the final showdown; he silently closed his eyes, preparing to meet this fatal blow.

No sooner said than done, at this critical moment, a massive bolt of lightning suddenly tore through the sky, striking directly at Zhu Zhuqing as she prepared to launch her attack.

The speed of this lightning was extremely fast, and it contained immense energy.

Zhu Zhuqing also sensed the power of this lightning; she knew that if she took it head-on, she might suffer some injury.

In an instant, she made a decision: she abandoned the attack and immediately dodged the lightning.

Her figure vanished instantly, turning into a streak of light that passed through the path of the lightning, evading its attack.

By comparison, although the speed of that lightning was also extremely fast, it clearly fell short when compared to Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing's speed was undoubtedly her most powerful weapon, allowing her to move with ease and remain unrivaled in battle.

Then, the lightning, like a wild dragon, unstoppable in its momentum, crashed directly into the ground, instantly sending dust flying as a roar echoed in the air.

The scene was like a comet hitting the earth—shocking, immensely powerful, and heart-stopping.

After the dust flew up, a hurricane followed, blowing the dust across the sky directly toward Zhu Zhuqing and the Two Great Empires soldiers behind her.

Zhu Zhuqing immediately erected a Spirit Power Wall to block the dust filling the sky.

Under the protection of this wall, the soldiers behind her were spared.

Zhu Zhuqing's divine sense had been covering the entire battlefield, and suddenly, she felt someone enter.

Judging by the energy intensity of this person, they were undoubtedly a god-level powerhouse, and their powerful energy fluctuations made the surrounding air oppressive.

However, their true purpose remained unfathomable.

Not good!

Zhu Zhuqing suddenly realized that this person's lightning attack on her was a feint; the goal was to stir up dust to block everyone's vision and then rescue Tang San.

The god-level powerhouse who had entered the battlefield moved with the speed of lightning, instantly arriving at Tang San's side like a Thunder God descending to the mortal world, grabbing the now-resigned Tang San and flying away without hesitation.

Their speed was extremely fast, like a thunderclap, and they instantly vanished from Zhu Zhuqing's divine sense.

This mysterious god-level powerhouse not only possessed unparalleled speed, but lightning also flickered around their body, emitting a powerful aura.

Furthermore, lightning flickered around the body of this God-level powerhouse; at a glance, it was clearly of the Thunder Attribute.

A Thunder Attribute God-level powerhouse!

An inexplicable sense of tension and unease could not help but well up in Zhuqing's heart.

She hurriedly circulated her soul power, attempting to perceive the identity of this mysterious powerhouse, yet it was all in vain.

However, this person disappeared too quickly; even after releasing all of her divine sense, she still could not perceive the location of this God-level powerhouse.

Seeing this person's speed, Zhuqing understood that she could not catch up to him; after all, compared to a Thunder Attribute God-level powerhouse, her speed was still slightly lacking.

This mysterious powerhouse was like a bolt of lightning, vanishing in an instant, impossible for anyone to capture.

The appearance of the Thunder Attribute God-level powerhouse added a touch of mystery to this battle and also made Zhuqing feel unprecedented pressure.

She watched that direction silently, secretly vowing in her heart that sooner or later, she would uncover the true face of this God-level powerhouse.

This God-level powerhouse who rescued Tang San was none other than Yu Xiaogang.

Like a thunderclap, he appeared before Tang San in an instant, saving him from the clutches of the Grim Reaper.

The scene caused by the five Five Elements Bombs exploding within the Bala Kingdom instantly attracted the attention of many.

The power of those five Five Elements Bombs was like a world-ending catastrophe; the entire Bala Kingdom was trembling, and even people as far away as the Spirit Hall could feel the intense seismic waves.

The explosion of the bomb Soul Guidance Device caused the heavens and earth to change color, as if the apocalypse had arrived; the hearts of Yu Xiaogang and the others could not help but hang in suspense, as they deeply felt that Tang San was in danger, his life or death uncertain.

After all, the power of this bomb's explosion was too great, making even them feel alarmed.

Therefore, Yu Xiaogang, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun came over to take a look; Dugu Yan did not join in the excitement, as she had other things to do today.

Upon arriving at the battlefield, the three of them saw at a glance that Tang San was engaged in a fierce battle with Zhuqing.

Regarding the fact that Zhuqing had become a god, the three could not help but be dumbfounded, a stormy sea surging in their hearts.

They had originally thought that they were already the peak existences in this world, but now they discovered that there were other God-level powerhouses in existence.

Just as they were immersed in the shock, Xue Ke also suddenly erupted with God-level strength; that powerful energy was like a Violent Wind and Rain, causing the three to wake up with a start.

They looked at each other, a trace of worry flashing in their eyes.

Could it be that the news previously sent from the God Realm was false?

Wasn't it said that without a God Position inheritance, one could not become a god on the Douluo Continent?

Then what was going on with Zhuqing and Xue Ke?

Besides the two of them becoming gods, were there any other God-level powerhouses hidden on the Douluo Continent?

Many questions appeared in their minds at this moment; all these doubts and mysteries were like a thick fog, shrouding their hearts, making it impossible for them to let go.

Carrying the heavily injured Tang San, the group arrived at a small city that was still developing.

Although it was still developing, its geographical location was excellent; according to the deductions of the Gourmet Appreciation Association, this place would eventually develop into a giant city with a flourishing economy.

Therefore, long ago, the Gourmet Appreciation Association had begun laying the groundwork, purchasing a lot of land and property here, preparing to seize the initiative so they could make a huge profit when the time came.

A hidden property of the Gourmet Appreciation Association.

Tang San was lying on the bed at this moment, physically and mentally exhausted, but his consciousness was exceptionally clear.

His wounds had been carefully bandaged, and hemostatic bandages were wrapped around his wounds, alleviating his pain.

He knew he had been saved.

Despite his body being weak, his heart was filled with gratitude.

Standing before the bed were Yu Xiaogang, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun.

None of them spoke, silently watching Tang San.

Tang San was very grateful at this moment, grateful that they had reached out to help when he was injured; they had used their own strength to pull him back from the edge of life and death.

His gaze passed through the window and looked toward the sky.

That azure sky made him feel peaceful and serene.

"Since you're awake, eat a Healing Sausage!" Oscar said, handing over a sausage he had just made using his soul skill.

Oscar's words made Tang San feel a trace of warmth, like sunlight.

Tang San looked at this sausage, a trace of tears flashing in his eyes, but it was quickly hidden by him.

He bit down without hesitation; the sausage that had once made him feel a bit repulsed now tasted so delicious.

The taste of the sausage swirled in his mouth, as if it were a hymn to life, every bite filled with strength.

That power of Healing surged into his body like a warm current, making him feel unprecedented comfort.

Oscar's sausage was making his body recover rapidly now.

The former disdain and suspicion had all turned into gratitude and trust at this moment.

He looked at Oscar, the person he had once felt a bit of disdain for and had never truly taken seriously, who had now become his friend and companion.

After finishing the sausage, he took out the Healing Pill and Blood Replenishing Pill he had refined himself from his Storage Ring and consumed them.

The battle had been urgent before, so there was no time to eat pills, and pills also required time to be absorbed.

Moreover, in that situation at the time, Zhuqing would absolutely not have given him the chance to take pills.

These pills were all refined from herbs with ages exceeding those on the market, and their effects were far superior to the pills currently being sold by the Spirit Hall.

With the two combined, Tang San estimated that he would be able to recover in about a week.

"Thank you all, thank you Master for saving me! Thank you Oscar for the sausage, and also thank you Ma Hongjun."

Tang San's tone was filled with sincerity and gratitude; his gaze lingered on each person's face for a moment, as if he wanted to deeply imprint their images into his heart.

At this very moment, Tang San truly regarded everyone as friends, as brothers.

Oscar looked at him with a smile, warm light flickering in his eyes, as if to say: "It's okay, we are friends."

Deep in Tang San's heart, his feelings toward the three of them had all turned into gratitude and trust at this moment.

He suddenly felt that all the previous unpleasantness had vanished into thin air at this very moment.

He knew he was no longer a lonely warrior; he had companions.

Tang San's eyes were filled with firmness and determination; he felt that he was once again full of strength.

Even if he failed this time, he would not wallow in the pain of failure, but would instead strive to improve himself and become even stronger.

Ma Hongjun walked over, patted Tang San on the shoulder, and said, "Tang San, this failure is nothing; we have all had experiences of failure. As long as we do not give up, we will certainly be able to succeed."

"That's right, as long as we are still here, we still have a chance!" Oscar also spoke up.

Tang San nodded, his heart filled with gratitude.

In the past, Oscar and Ma Hongjun also felt that they lived very failed lives and had no goals, but they did not give up, and in the end, they found what they wanted.

The establishment and development of the Gourmet Appreciation Association was the thing that made them happiest, and it was also their life's direction; this made them happier than the matter of becoming gods.

Their becoming gods was entirely an arrangement by the God Realm, and even they themselves were muddled about it.

At the beginning, following Tang San and Yu Xiaogang, they ran around everywhere, developing a faction, yet they could only do it stealthily and dared not expose themselves.

That kind of life was not what they wanted either; later, coming to Wuhun City, they were attracted by the prosperity of Wuhun City and the delicacies of Wuhun City, which slowly allowed them to find their direction in life.

In the past, Tang San looked down on the two of them very much, feeling that they lacked ambition, and he had never truly treated them as friends; Yu Xiaogang was the same, and only Dugu Yan would not shun them.

Seeing Tang San's appearance now made them feel that Tang San was sincere and now truly accepted them, which is why they spoke up to comfort Tang San.

Although Yu Xiaogang had been by their side the whole time, he had not spoken a word to comfort Tang San; it seems he still held some grievances regarding previous matters.
