38: Sheng Tianqi

"What!?"

"What did you just say?!"

Old Brother Niu's gaze seemed to pierce through the screen, staring intently at Tang Ping, his eyes bloodshot.

Tang Ping calmly replied, "My ancestor is named Tang Ping."

Even he himself was curious if there was another version of him in this timeline.

But judging by Old Brother Niu's reaction, it was clear that a Tang Ping existed in this timeline!

However, was he alive or dead, or did he have some connection to himself?

Old Brother Niu's breathing grew heavy: "Are you telling the truth? Are you really a descendant of Tang Ping?"

"Absolutely," Tang Ping affirmed. Although he wasn't a descendant of Tang Ping, he *was* Tang Ping.

Old Brother Niu gradually calmed down: "Alright, since you say you're a descendant of Tang Ping, I need to ask you something."

Tang Ping nodded: "Okay, ask away. However, I don't know much about my great-grandfather's affairs, but there was once a diary from when my great-grandfather worked at a company that was passed down, and I read it when I was a child."

Old Brother Niu's eyes flickered: "Alright, then tell me, what brand of instant noodles did Tang Ping like to eat?"

Tang Ping was dumbfounded. He racked his brain, not expecting Old Brother Niu to ask such a question. He promptly answered: "Expired brand!"

Old Brother Niu suddenly relaxed, seemingly convinced by Tang Ping's words, and tears streamed down his face: "So, you really are Tang Ping's great-grandson!"

Tang Ping was covered in black lines. Saying it himself was one thing, but hearing it from someone else always felt a bit awkward.

Old Brother Niu wiped his tears, then his gaze suddenly sharpened again: "Kid, did you encounter some difficulty looking for me? If you need anything, just tell me. Although I'm old now, this last blade in my hand, sealed for a hundred years, is invincible against anyone below the Conferred title!"

Tang Ping's heart trembled. To be honest, he still didn't know what Old Brother Niu's Talent was.

Tang Ping spoke: "Old Brother Niu, if, if I said I could contact my great-grandfather in the past timeline once, what do you think I should tell him?"

After saying this, he tightly pursed his lips and looked at Old Brother Niu. He wasn't afraid of being exposed, because with just one change to history, no one would remember what he said.

Old Brother Niu's body stiffened, his bewildered gaze instantly turned incredulous, then suddenly filled with surprise. Various complex emotions churned in Old Niu's eyes.

Finally, Old Brother Niu's hands trembled with excitement: "You... you awakened a Space-Time Talent!"

Tang Ping paused for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, but it can only be used once."

"Enough, that's enough!"

"Tianhua Avenue!"

Old Brother Niu was suddenly ecstatic!

"Tianhua Avenue, Doomsday Perilous City dungeon!"

"You must complete the unique hidden quest!"

He stared intently at Tang Ping, his eyes filled with wild joy: "The current leader of Shengtian Group, that bastard, completed the unique hidden quest there and obtained a top-tier exotic treasure!"

"The saviors ring!"

"This item allowed his already SS-Rank Talent to break through to SSS-rank! Moreover, in the twenty-first year of the Doomsday Game, after the Shelter reached Level 7, it combined with the Shelter to open up a hundred-mile pure land, the Sheng Family Villa! That laid the foundation for his Hegemon-level Power!"

"Kid, if you can really send a message to Tang Ping a hundred years ago, tell him this: go complete that unique hidden quest!"

"Absolutely, absolutely do not let Sheng Tianqi get it!"

"Absolutely!"

"You need to do..."

...Tang Ping returned.

He emerged from the Shelter, appearing in a secluded underground parking lot.

Then he hurried towards Tianhua Avenue.

"Sheng Tianqi, SS-Rank Talent, SSS-rank Trait Shelter, a jade mountain."

Tang Ping repeated the words, his face grim. So, he was the supreme leader of the Shengtian Group a hundred years later, the controller of a Hegemon-level Power.

He even raised his Talent to SSS-rank in this dungeon!

Tang Ping's breathing quickened. Now, he already knew what this unique hidden quest was.

As long as he completed it, he could obtain the reward of that top-tier exotic treasure, the saviors ring!

It would allow his S-rank Talent to break through to SS-Rank!

And in the future, after the Shelter upgraded to Level 7, he could acquire a hundred-mile pure land, fearless of all Doomsday disasters!

"I must get this item!"

Tang Ping's gaze was firm. Whether for his own sake, or because the Starlight Safe Zone was usurped and stolen by villains.

He had to get this item, especially since it could elevate his S-rank Talent to SS-Rank. He couldn't possibly give it up.

At this moment, Tang Ping moved through Jiangcheng with ease. Even if he was discovered by Infected, he would shake them off in an instant.

His speed of 101 was far beyond what the current Infected could pursue, unless he encountered other Calamity Beasts, which would then impede Tang Ping's progress.

Time passed, and finally, he arrived at Tianhua Avenue.

Then he followed Tianhua Avenue eastward.

"Wait, that's!" Tang Ping suddenly narrowed his eyes. He saw someone familiar.

"It's Wang Yanyan!"

"And the person next to Wang Yanyan, isn't that Sheng Tianqi!" Tang Ping's breathing hitched, and two cherry bombs suddenly appeared in his hands.

These cherry bombs were the size of a football.

In front of them was a group of people, twenty black-suited bodyguards, along with Wang Yanyan and Sheng Tianqi.

Blow them up!

This was Tang Ping's only thought. He took a deep breath, slowly regaining his composure. He couldn't be too impulsive.

His cherry bombs probably couldn't kill Sheng Tianqi. After all, even a hundred years later, very few people knew what kind of Talent this deeply cunning man possessed, or how powerful an SSS-rank Talent was; these things were unknown to outsiders.

Even Sheng Tianqi's Shelter was only vaguely speculated about.

The earliest record was when Sheng Tianqi, in the twelfth year of the Doomsday Game, crushed a Level 7 Corpse King with a single palm from thousands of meters away!

One must know that was only the twelfth year of the Doomsday Game. As for a hundred years later, his power was even more unfathomable.

Although there were many others with Conferred titles, Sheng Tianqi was undoubtedly among the top tier.

Tang Ping wasn't confident he could kill him with an explosion.

But for the other bodyguards and Wang Yanyan, he was extremely confident he could blow them up!

Looking at the cherry bombs in his hands, Tang Ping quickly left the road, using his extreme speed to circle around in front of them, climbing onto the roof of a seven-story residential building next to the road.

Then he quietly lay in ambush.

Even if he couldn't kill Sheng Tianqi, he could at least deprive him of much assistance in the upcoming dungeon.

He could even prevent the other party from discovering the dungeon, buying himself more time to complete the unique hidden quest.

The Doomsday Game was about competition. As for those innocent bodyguards, don't blame me, blame yourselves for following the wrong person.

Tang Ping watched the approaching group, slowly raising the cherry bombs in his hands.
