Chapter 71: When Qian Renxue Meets Tang Hao
A butterfly gently flaps its wings, and the resulting gust of wind unknowingly changes many things.
Su Lin was unaware that the butterfly effect he had created had already altered the fates of many people. He had already arrived outside the Blue Silver Forest.
"This fluctuation..."
He suddenly frowned and looked ahead. An extremely strong surge of soul power came from the forest, along with angry emotions from Ah Yin's side.
"Your Majesty..."
The spiritual network of the Blue Silver Grass had already connected with his spiritual sea, allowing him to instantly understand everything happening here.
"Tang Hao!"
A cold glint flashed in Su Lin's eyes.
Tang Hao had finally been unable to endure the loneliness and come alone to the Blue Silver Forest.
When he discovered Ah Yin was here and had recovered to 100,000 years of cultivation, he was overjoyed and wanted to take her away.
But Ah Yin's romantic delusions had long been cured; she had no intention of abandoning her tribe to leave with him.
Thus conflict naturally erupted between the two, and a great battle unfolded in the Blue Silver Forest.
Although Tang Hao possessed a 100,000-year soul ring and the Clear Sky Sect's ultimate techniques, including the Killing God Domain, the Clear Sky Hammer as a top-tier offensive weapon spirit was inherently countered by control-type spirits.
With the assistance of countless Blue Silver Grass in the Blue Silver Forest, Ah Yin's strength was amplified to its maximum, and Tang Hao's attacks failed repeatedly.
Yet this man refused to give up. He would return every so often, and each battle caused considerable damage to the Blue Silver Forest.
"Hahaha, Ah Yin, as long as you don't agree, I'll keep coming back!"
Accompanied by an extremely arrogant laugh, a massive Clear Sky Hammer wrapped in crimson lightning shot out of the Blue Silver Forest, pursued closely by enormous blue-gold vines.
"Senior Dugu, stop him!"
Su Lin concealed himself and Dugu Yan with the Blue Silver Domain and immediately spoke to Dugu Bo.
"Tang Hao? Clear Sky Douluo?"
Dugu Bo showed no fear; on the contrary, he was quite interested.
Having killed Yu Yuanzhen and absorbed two soul bones, Dugu Bo had broken through consecutively to level 94. Now he was bursting with arrogance and confidence!
Clear Sky Douluo?
Just a junior who had only been a Title Douluo for less than two years!
"Eighth Soul Skill: Time Freeze!"
Though arrogant, Dugu Bo's fighting style remained the same. The sudden attack caught Tang Hao, who was rapidly retreating, completely off guard.
This was Dugu Bo's strongest control soul skill, capable of affecting even fellow Title Douluo.
Though Tang Hao was not fully restrained, his movements slowed dramatically in that instant, and his soul power consumption multiplied several times!
"Court death!"
Already furious from Ah Yin's cold words, Tang Hao was thoroughly enraged by Dugu Bo's ambush.
"Killing God Domain!"
"Sky-Piercing Strike!"
Dugu Bo truly felt the terror of this Clear Sky Douluo; the man actually shattered the restraint of his eighth soul skill with raw power!
Having only reached Title Douluo less than two years ago and still carrying old injuries, Tang Hao's overall strength might not match the former Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon patriarch, yet his aura and pressure were even greater.
But Dugu Bo was unafraid. He was far stronger now than when he fought Yu Yuanzhen!
"Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor True Body!"
A gigantic azure-green serpent king phantom appeared, nine soul rings swirling and flashing around Dugu Bo.
"Try to draw the fight farther away."
Using the spiritual power of the Blue Silver Network, Su Lin transmitted his voice to Dugu Bo.
The lesson of Sunset Forest was still fresh. If Dugu Bo were allowed to go all out and destroy the Blue Silver Forest too, that would be disastrous.
"Your Majesty, I can go help..."
Ah Yin had also sensed Su Lin's arrival and offered to join the battle.
Without her romantic obsession, Tang Hao's repeated intrusions and the destruction of countless Blue Silver Grass in battle had completely infuriated her.
Whatever thin bond remained had been utterly exhausted, and his existence now posed a major threat to the Blue Silver Forest.
Su Lin hesitated briefly, then quickly decided. "Go ahead, but be careful."
Ah Yin had already chosen to stand against Tang Hao eventually; resolving it now would be ideal.
A 100,000-year soul beast's appearance would cause a stir, but no one below Title Douluo had the qualifications to covet one.
The odds of another Title Douluo being nearby were slim!
Whoosh!
At Su Lin's command, an enormous blue-gold vine suddenly uprooted itself and soared into the sky.
Hundreds of massive vines extended like tentacles, blotting out the sun.
"Flying grass?"
Even Dugu Yan, holding Su Lin's hand, was stunned.
"Well... it is, after all, a rather special kind of grass."
Though strange, Su Lin quickly accepted that "grass can fly" when he recalled one of Ah Yin's soul bone skills granted flight.
With Ah Yin joining the fray, Tang Hao, whose old injuries had yet to heal, quickly fell into disadvantage against two opponents.
Under the deliberate guidance of Dugu Bo and Ah Yin, the battlefield steadily shifted far away.
Tang Hao noticed but did not resist. The closer he was to the Blue Silver Forest, the stronger Ah Yin became, and his injuries grew harder to suppress.
Distance from the Blue Silver Forest benefited him as well.
...
"Young Master, the Star Dou Great Forest is just ahead."
"That town we just passed..."
Suddenly, Porcupinefish Douluo and Serpent Spear Douluo both looked eastward.
"Such intense soul power fluctuations!"
Sensing the fierce clash, both men wore grave expressions. "Young Master, Title Douluo are fighting ahead!"
"Title Douluo? A conflict with soul hunters?"
Qian Renxue frowned. Perhaps because she had been confined in the Heaven Dou Empire too long, she had fully reverted to her original feminine appearance for this trip.
The long golden-threaded robe was simple yet elegant, her golden hair nearly reaching her hips.
With snow-white skin, a straight nose, and slightly upturned phoenix eyes, even while still young, she was a beauty capable of toppling kingdoms.
"Young Master, your status is too noble; this is no place to linger."
"Yes, Young Master, we should leave at once."
Both Porcupinefish and Serpent Spear Douluo grew anxious. Their strength was among the lowest of Title Douluo, and every combatant ahead surpassed them.
If it were just the two of them, it would be fine, but with Qian Renxue present, they had no intention of getting involved.
If anything happened to this precious Young Master under their protection, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Hahaha, what Clear Sky Douluo? I think he's nothing special!"
"Today, I, Dugu Bo, will add another name to my list of victories!"
Having bottled it up for so long, Dugu Bo's arrogance soared, his loud laughter echoing through heaven and earth.
"Clear Sky Douluo?"
Qian Renxue, who had been about to leave this dangerous place, suddenly halted.
