Chapter 158: Reluctantly Letting Go, Tang San's Anger, Chrysanthemum Douluo's Gaze
The Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo and the Snake Lance Douluo's expressions changed drastically the moment they sensed the appearance of the Seven Kill Sword!
Sword Douluo's speed was too fast!
"Whoosh!"
The three of them dodged to the sides almost at the same time they heard the sword's whistling sound.
"Boom!"
The moment the Seven Kill Sword landed, its sword qi instantly swept across the surroundings, erasing a layer of countless forests within the Sunset Forest.
"Hisss! What a terrifying sword!"
The soul masters below gasped in shock at the power of that sword.
"Cough! His strength has increased again!"
Ghost Douluo, relying on his speed, quickly moved Chrysanthemum Douluo to a safe area, avoiding Sword Douluo's attack.
The latter stared at the white-haired Chen Xin who was coming from afar, with a dark look in his eyes, "At the same level of ninety-six, we are still no match for him."
Ghost Douluo nodded slightly, saying, "His Seven Kill Sword soul is one of the few weapon souls that can compare with the Hao Tian Hammer, not to mention this guy has immersed himself in the way of the sword for many years, focusing solely on cultivation. It's not surprising he has such strength."
Snake Lance Douluo, looking at Gu Rong following Chen Xin, said in a deep voice, "With Chen Xin here, today's matter might have to be called off."
With two Title Douluos from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect personally arriving, it was impossible to take Tang Hao away.
If it wasn't for Sword Bone Douluo's arrival, they wouldn't have shown up early to help.
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo clenched their fists slightly but didn't say much.
They had underestimated the power of Tang Hao's exploding rings.
In the future, if they really want to take Tang Hao away, unless the Pope is by their side, they will need at least four Title Douluos to attack him simultaneously to capture him.
"Great! It's the Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!" Yu Xiaogang was thrilled to see the rescuers were from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
He thought they were doomed to be captured by the Spirit Hall today, but the outcome turned out to be a reversal!
Looking up at the Sword Douluo in the sky, Tang San recalled the power of the latter's sword, feeling a sense of admiration and envy.
Recalling how Su Yun used his soul skill earlier, his own Blue Silver Grass soul gave him the impulse to worship the opponent.
Tang San couldn't help feeling angry with his own soul.
Even... disgusted!
Clearly, Su Yun's soul was stolen from his mother, and his soul should be the true Blue Silver Emperor!
Why should he kneel to him?!
No! He must switch to cultivating the Hao Tian Hammer when he returns!
Otherwise, on the day of the duel with Su Yun, he might be doomed before he even makes a move.
As Tang San looked up at the sky, thinking about what to do after returning to the Hao Tian Sect with his father Tang Hao, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo also arrived above him.
At this moment, the number of Title Douluos on both sides finally reached a temporary balance.
However, in terms of combat power, Tang San's side clearly had a greater advantage.
"Hehe, I didn't expect to see the long-lost Hao Tian Douluo today, and also meet a few from the Spirit Hall, truly a good day." Sword Douluo Chen Xin looked at the devastated Sunset Forest after the battle, saying with a sneer.
Bone Douluo Gu Rong also echoed, glancing at Poison Douluo Dugu Bo, with narrowed eyes, "Dugu Bo, you also surprised me."
"Usually not keen on joining any forces, yet you've become a dog of the Spirit Hall."
Dugu Bo snorted coldly, ignoring him.
Sword Douluo looked at Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, saying, "I didn't expect you two to have reached the level of ninety-six."
"However, your foundation is still too weak to unleash the true power of a ninety-six level Title Douluo. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to stop you from taking the person away before we arrived."
During the conversation, Sword Douluo also glanced at the Porcupine Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo, who were wearing masks to hide their faces.
Although he was not very familiar with these two, he was sure they were Title Douluos of the Spirit Hall.
"We might have greatly underestimated the number of Title Douluos within the Spirit Hall."
Sword Douluo believed that for the Spirit Hall to deploy four Title Douluos just to capture Tang Hao, they must have at least ten or more Title Douluos!
"We need to discuss this matter with Feng Zhi after returning. We need to increase our vigilance against the Spirit Hall."
Hearing Sword Douluo Chen Xin's 'analysis,' Chrysanthemum Douluo coldly laughed, "Then we should thank Sword Douluo for the lesson."
Sword Douluo hummed, responding indifferently, "You're welcome."
"Clan leader Yu, long time no see." Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo greeted Yu Yuanzhen from a distance, showing respect.
Yu Yuanzhen also returned the gesture.
At this moment, Tang Hao, severely injured from exploding his rings, could barely stand in the air with the help of Yu Yuanzhen.
Seeing Tang Hao in such a state, Sword Douluo was about to invite Tang Hao to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for healing when suddenly, Chrysanthemum Douluo's voice sounded again, "Sword Douluo, since you're done reminiscing, perhaps it's time for you to leave?"
Clearly, Chrysanthemum Douluo didn't want to miss this opportunity.
Although he was injured by the aftermath of Tang Hao's Great Xumi Hammer, he was well aware that Tang Hao was also severely injured.
Without three or four days of recovery, Tang Hao definitely couldn't recuperate.
"What fugitive? I haven't seen any." Sword Douluo frowned upon hearing this, turning to look at Chrysanthemum Douluo with an innocent expression.
Chrysanthemum Douluo's eyes darkened, sternly saying, "Chen Xin! Don't push your luck, Tang Hao killed our Spirit Hall's previous Pope! We have been secretly capturing him for years under the Pope's orders."
"And this brat!" Chrysanthemum Douluo pointed at Tang San, who was protected behind Yu Xiaogang, "This child is the bastard born of Tang Hao and that hundred-thousand-year soul beast!"
Huh?
When Yue Guan made his statement, the gazes of many Title Douluos present immediately fell on Tang San, as if trying to see through him.
A half-spirit beast bloodline?
Was this child a spirit beast?
Or a human?
If he were killed, would a hundred-thousand-year spirit beast spirit ring be produced?
Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo exchanged glances, both understanding what the other was thinking.
They decided to take Tang Hao and Tang San back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect first.
"You can capture Tang Hao if you wish, I won't stop you, but I disagree with capturing him," Sword Douluo pointed at Tang Hao, his tone very decisive.
Chrysanthemum Douluo's eyelid twitched: "He is Tang Hao!"
Sword Douluo scoffed, "What proof do you have?"
Damn it!
Chrysanthemum Douluo cursed inwardly, biting back his anger, "His martial soul is the Hao Tian Hammer!"
"Ridiculous!"
Bone Douluo laughed loudly, "Is everyone with the Hao Tian Hammer martial soul Tang Hao?!"
"Chen Xin! Gu Rong!"
"Are you intentionally going against our Spirit Hall?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression darkened, "Be careful, I will report this matter to the great worship of our Spirit Hall!"
"If it weren't for Tang Hao's disappearance, he would have killed Tang Hao with one slap for the pain of losing his son back then!"
"You wouldn't have the chance to protect him now!"
The great worship of the Spirit Hall.
Qian Daoliu.
A peak Douluo of level ninety-nine.
Hearing Qian Daoliu's name, even someone as strong as Sword Douluo Chen Xin couldn't help but change his expression.
The man who had defeated his father!
The true spiritual leader of the Spirit Hall!
So many years had passed, and he was still alive!
If Qian Daoliu knew of Tang Hao's reappearance, he would certainly do everything in his power to kill him!
Seeing the change in Sword Douluo's expression, Chrysanthemum Douluo sneered, "Chen Xin, this is a matter between Tang Hao and our Spirit Hall. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect should not intervene."
"And the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan," Chrysanthemum Douluo looked at Yu Yuanzhen, "This matter is also unrelated to you."
"If you don't want your sects to get into trouble, it's best if you leave!"
Tang Hao, seeing Chrysanthemum Douluo trying to coerce the people from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to leave, immediately frowned.
At this moment, because of exploding his rings, he couldn't use the power of his soul rings.
If he were alone, he would surely be captured by the people of the Spirit Hall.
How could he then lead his sect to return to the continent?
How to overthrow the Spirit Hall?
However, before Tang Hao could think of a strategy, Sword Douluo Chen Xin's voice suddenly rose, "My Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Hao Tian Sect are both among the top three sects, branches of the same tree. How could we abandon our allies?"
"Exactly!"
"My Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan feels the same!"
Yu Yuanzhen also stood out, supporting Tang Hao!
Tang Hao's strength was formidable, as everyone had just witnessed.
Even after disappearing for many years, his strength had not regressed but progressed.
Given time, he was sure to become a powerful figure!
The top three sects, including the royal family, actually shared the same goal.
That was to overthrow the Spirit Hall.
Now that Tang Hao had returned, he was a significant boost to their cause.
How could they possibly let Tang Hao be captured by the Spirit Hall?
As for the threat of Qian Daoliu mentioned by Chrysanthemum Douluo, Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen had considered this issue.
But without exception, they all chose to protect Tang Hao.
Because abandoning Tang Hao would be akin to a slow death for them.
Without Tang Hao, the return of the Hao Tian Sect could potentially turn into nothing.
They needed the powerful Hao Tian Sect to stand with them against the Spirit Hall!
Chrysanthemum Douluo stared hard at Yu Yuanzhen and Chen Xin, then glanced at Yu Xiaogang and the others below. His expression was extremely grim!
All his plans had come to naught in the end!
Finally, Yue Guan ordered the Spirit Hall members to clear a path.
It was no longer their scene to control; they had to let them go!
Seeing Chrysanthemum Douluo back down, Sword Douluo and the others didn't say much and simply left the scene with their people.
However, as Sword Douluo and the others were leaving, Chrysanthemum Douluo's gaze suddenly fixed on Yu Xiaogang's retreating figure.
