Chapter 190: Chapter 178: The Ominous News from the Frontline

"Great Demon King Piccolo, can you withstand my Hun Tian Ling?" A celestial figure shrouded in red light appeared in the sky. Although it resembled a child, its divine might was terrifying, even causing Great Demon King Piccolo to feel a sense of oppression from a different system.

"This is a hero template from the Central Plains!" Great Demon King Piccolo felt an intense pressure, mainly due to the pervasive red light in the sky, carrying an extremely terrifying divine power, making it difficult for him to resist.

Previously summoned elite demons were already killed one by one by the Hun Tian Ling.

Realizing the unfavorable situation, Great Demon King Piccolo made a split-second decision to turn and flee.

But before taking two steps, a Qiankun Ring came buzzing from behind, quickly closing in.

Soon, the Qiankun Ring fastened around Great Demon King Piccolo’s neck!

"Ah!" Great Demon King Piccolo let out a painful howl, feeling a threat of death, as if he was about to explode at any moment.

This feeling was unbearable, causing Great Demon King Piccolo’s nose and tears to flow uncontrollably.

"What is this? I can’t open it!"

The Qiankun Ring around his neck emitted powerful waves, which he couldn’t unlock, making him feel suffocated, and his body began to swell.

Bang!

As the Qiankun Ring tightened, Great Demon King Piccolo truly exploded violently on the spot, dissipating into a mist of blood.

Clearly, Great Demon King Piccolo’s physical quality was far from enough to resist the powerful crushing force of the Qiankun Ring.

"What the?!"

Seeing the formidable enemy he had struggled to kill for so long be instantly defeated by a Qiankun Ring, Tang Xuanze felt profoundly shocked.

"Is this the strength of the Celestial Heroes? Our native Celestial Heroes in the Central Plains are actually stronger than the Twelve-winged Angel Goddess!"

Tang Xuanze could tell that even if Nangong Wan were to fight Nezha, she might not last three rounds before being killed by Nezha.

The terror of Nezha was beyond imagination. Not only could he unleash powerful heavenly might, but the divine power he exuded also felt more threatening than that of Nangong Wan.

Tang Xuanze knew there was already a significant gap between him and Nangong Wan, but compared to Nezha, the gap would only be greater.

"Who are you, sir? A hidden master from the first batch of Awakened Lords?!"

Tang Xuanze immediately approached Rosen and asked respectfully.

Rosen currently appeared as Nezha, and Tang Xuanze couldn’t identify his true identity.

"No need to worry, I just happened to be passing by."

Rosen said casually.

"The great master lent a hand to help; the Tang Family is endlessly grateful. Please come back to the Tang manor with me; we must show our gratitude!" Tang Xuanze said.

"Bring me back and keep me as a Grand Tributor?" Rosen replied.

Tang Xuanze was startled and quickly said, "I dare not make demands of a senior at will. You are free to come and go at the Tang Family. If you are willing to become our family’s tributor, we will certainly treat you well."

Tang Xuanze showed more respect towards Rosen than Tang Xichen did, as he had previously interacted with individuals from the first batch of Awakened Lords. They were the true elites among humans, the first sent out to explore the post-cataclysm world and uncover its secrets, later ascending to a divine status, hiding from the world, with their whereabouts unknown.

Encountering one suddenly was already a great shock for Tang Xuanze.

"You don’t need to be nervous; I’ve already agreed with your daughter to become your family’s Grand Tributor." Rosen said.

Upon hearing this, Tang Xuanze looked at Tang Xichen with joy, surprised that his daughter was cleverer than he was, having succeeded in attracting the support of a hidden master.

Yet he had no idea what price Tang Xichen had paid to win the favor of this great master for the Tang Family.

"I have no particular demands. The reason I made this decision is for the Chosen One!" Rosen said.

He then provided a reasonable explanation: "The Chosen One is a prophecy for those of us who were the first batch of Lords post-cataclysm, and now that it’s fulfilled, it is time for us to appear and protect the Chosen One."

His words made sense, and Tang Xuanze immediately believed them.

"Then, have the top Lords, those esteemed seniors, appeared once more?" Tang Xuanze asked.

Since one had appeared, it meant others should be emerging as well.

"That, I do not know. When we decided to vanish, everyone went their own way, each having their own reasons to hide. Whether they appear or not, I’m unaware." Rosen said evasively.

After all, he was pretending to be one of the first batch of Awakened Lords, but in reality, he wasn’t, and he didn’t know what happened at that time.

"Regarding why they chose to hide back then, our Tang Family also investigated and concluded it was to avoid calamity." At this moment, Tang Xuanze said, "Can you enlighten us, senior, on what exactly this calamity is?"

This question had always troubled Tang Xuanze, leaving him puzzled as to why the world’s top Lords needed to hide and change their identities.

Evidently, such a collective disappearance couldn’t be as simple as a sudden desire for a carefree life; it was likely indeed to avoid some calamity.
