Chapter 50: Tang San's Terror, Is there really a so-called Supreme Pontiff?

At this moment, with the help of Xiao Wu and the two Holy Spirit Sect elders, Yue Guan has successfully escaped.

As soon as they entered the ghost's body, they quickly disappeared without a trace, leaving Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the others standing helplessly on the side.

Naturally, Tang San and the others were feeling extremely uncomfortable at this moment.

Standing still like statues, their faces were pale, filled with regret, and they gritted their teeth as they looked at the empty ground that was left behind by the disappearance.

"If only we knew earlier, we should have just killed him with one strike."

"Why did we have to be complacent?"

"And we even fantasized about getting rewards from the Heaven Dou Empire after killing him? Our fame resounding through the three armies?"

"Now that the person has escaped, how can we claim the rewards? How can our fame resound through the three armies?"

Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun were extremely regretful.

Thinking back to the fact that they had already started fighting for credit before they succeeded, they felt incredibly foolish.

They were truly stupid!

Otherwise, how could such a thing happen?

Thinking of this, both of them wished they could slap themselves hard to punish their own stupidity and prevent themselves from making the same mistake again.

"Damn it!"

Tang San, at this moment, was also on the verge of being infuriated to the point of passing out.

After all, just like Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, he had started fantasizing about sharing the credit before he had even won.

So, in his current perspective, his previous behavior seemed extremely foolish.

And there was another point.

Tang San was, after all, the Blue Sky King.

Moreover, this operation was also proposed by him in his own name to the general.

When he proposed this operation, the general strongly disagreed, after all, the general believed that Tang San and the others might be adept at individual combat, but when it came to war, he was absolutely not adept.

Originally, Tang San wanted to severely slap the general's face by beheading Yue Guan.

He wanted the general to know that he, Tang San, was not only a Soul Master with incredibly strong soul power but also a military genius!

That's why Tang San was so proud after defeating Yue Guan.

Who would have thought that he would be so careless and lose the opportunity!

Even a duck that's about to reach his mouth can fly away!

It almost infuriated Tang San to death!

This made Tang San even more frustrated at this moment.

"It seems like this time I'm going to lose face big time!"

Tang San couldn't help but sigh.

Soon, his gaze turned towards the Sea God Trident in his hand.

He began to recall everything that happened before.

And as he recalled the previous battle, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"Those two self-proclaimed Holy Spirit Sect elders, they are truly terrifying..."

"Their martial souls are extremely strange, and their strength is formidable..."

"If it weren't for the assistance of the Sea God Trident, I might have been killed by them in the illusion realm just now."

Tang San was well aware that illusions could also be deadly.

Because killing someone in the real world simply meant destroying their physical body.

But sinking into an illusion realm meant mental collapse, living in a state of confusion and half-dead.

Therefore, even when Tang San thought back to the previous battle, it was filled with fear.

When Tang San thought about those two Holy Spirit Sect elders again, he couldn't help but feel a sense of dread.

He began to recall the words they had said before in his mind.

"Indeed, this kid should be dealt with personally by the Master."

"Little Sea God, when the Master takes action, it will be effortless to crush you."

"We are too weak."

"We are the Holy Spirit Sect, an organization of evil Soul Masters."

"You are unlucky."

"Because you have offended our Master, and now, our Master wants to kill you."

"Although you have obtained the inheritance of the Sea God, in the eyes of our Master, that kind of deity is nothing."

"Be mentally prepared and obediently wait for death."

"When our Master comes out of seclusion, you will be finished."

"At that time, you will know what true despair is."

Previously, in the midst of the urgent situation, Tang San hadn't had time to ponder over it.

But now, as he carefully thought about it, he felt that something was amiss.

These two Soul Masters, are they elders within the same organization?

If that's the case, how many people are there in the organization apart from these two elders? How many elders like them are there?

The more Tang San thought about it, the more afraid he became.

Especially when he remembered the words "Little Sea God, when the Master takes action, it will be effortless to crush you" spoken by the two Holy Spirit Sect elders earlier...

Tang San felt his heart pounding.

These people not only recognized his inheritance as the Sea God's inheritance but also dared to speak such arrogant words?

In the Douluo Continent, everyone showed extreme respect towards deities.

Because it represented absolute strength.

Those who would say such things were either fools or truly had that kind of power.

But the two Holy Spirit Sect elders didn't seem like fools, did they?

Could it be that their so-called Master truly possessed that kind of ability?

What should he do? Just wait for death?

As Tang San thought about it, his face turned pale, and he became extremely fearful.

"Don't worry, Xiao San, the power of the Sea God is supreme."

"You don't need to listen to the nonsense of those two evil Soul Masters!"

"They're just trying to attack you through words. Once they make you uneasy, they succeed. After all, they don't need to pay with their lives. They just need to move their mouths."

However, Dai Mubai quickly noticed Tang San's fear.

He spoke up in time, looking at Tang San and saying,

"Don't worry, Xiao San. If that so-called Master is truly formidable and has a grudge against you, why doesn't he take action himself?"

"Why send these two elders who can't kill you?"

"Hmph! It seems like these things were all made up by those two evil Soul Masters to deceive you!"

Upon hearing this, Tang San suddenly felt a sense of clarity, and a look of realization appeared on his face.

"Indeed, I almost fell for the tricks of those evil Soul Masters."

Tang San nodded to Dai Mubai.

"If that so-called Master is really as powerful as they claim, and if he has a grudge against me, why doesn't he personally come forward?"

"Why must he send these two elders who can't kill me?"

"Hmph! It seems like all these things were just fabricated by those two evil Soul Masters to deceive me!"

Tang San thought this through and felt grateful to Dai Mubai.

"I'm glad you reminded me in time, Dai Boss. Otherwise, I would have truly fallen into their trap!"

Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai smiled at Tang San.

Then, he continued to comfort him,

"Hehe, it's normal for brothers to help each other."

"As for what those two evil Soul Masters said earlier, my attitude won't change, and you don't need to pay too much attention to it."

"Who knows, maybe that so-called Master is just a fabricated character created by them."

"Even if he really exists, he's just a rat. But you, as the inheritor of the Sea God, wielding the Sea God Trident, can easily kill him."

"The reason we almost failed earlier was because of the surprise attack, an unexpected situation. If it was a direct confrontation, they wouldn't stand a chance against you."

"Otherwise, they wouldn't have fled in a panic."
