She Must Be Looking at Me, Right?

Divine Realm, Shura God Temple

As usual, Shura God simultaneously peered into the two planes of the martial arts world and the Douluo world. On one side, Tang San had achieved great success in his cultivation and forged many exquisite Hidden Weapons; on the other, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao were traveling across the continent, while Ah Yin had taken human form and was experiencing life in the human world.

Shura God was immensely satisfied with this "Great Treasure." He said, "As expected of the successor I favor. You've mastered the Tang Sect Profound Arts so quickly. With these secret techniques and profound arts in the future, I'm sure you'll thrive like a fish in water in the new world."

"Now, it's time to arrange for your parents from the other world to meet." With a thought from old Shura, the three on Douluo Continent sensed something, as though an unseen force were guiding them toward one another.

Douluo Continent, Sanghai City

Tang Hao's cultivation had reached level 68, while Tang Xiao's had reached level 79. As they traveled the continent and made friends, they also cultivated their strength, spreading the name of the Haotian Twin Stars throughout the entire soul master world.

At last, they arrived at a place called Sanghai City.

"Hey, what are you trying to do?!" A clear, pitiful cry immediately caught the brothers' attention. The pleasant voice nearly made Tang Hao and Tang Xiao's ears "pregnant."

"Little lady, just obediently submit to me. Tonight, I, Zhao Hu, will make you feel like you're in heaven. From now on, you'll be the first lady of my Fierce Tiger Gang."

Someone was molesting a respectable woman? Once Tang Hao and Tang Xiao realized what was happening, they were not particularly surprised. Such things were common on Douluo Continent, and their Clear Sky Sect had done plenty of the same. Under normal circumstances, the brothers would not meddle or act out of misplaced compassion. Moreover, the Fierce Tiger Gang was a powerful local force, and there was no need to offend such a local tyrant.

But helplessly, her voice was simply too pleasant. Both brothers found themselves wanting to see what this woman looked like.

So, they followed the sound. In a dark alley, the brothers saw a group of muscular men surrounding a woman.

Soul Rings circled the muscular men, and the strongest among them was already a Soul Saint, with several Spirit Emperors and Spirit Kings as well. The woman surrounded in the middle was merely a Spirit King, but the instant the brothers saw her, they were stunned.

She stood there, slender and delicate, as though even a light breeze could blow her over. The faint light of the alley fell over her, draping her in a thin veil of silver that added a touch of cool elegance and gentle beauty. Her face was exquisite as a painting, her brows like distant verdant mountains, her eyes as clear as autumn water. Her long lashes trembled faintly like the fluttering wings of a butterfly, making her look heartbreakingly fragile. Her skin was white as snow, nearly blending with the moonlight itself, making people unable to resist the urge to protect her.

Her sea-blue hair cascaded down like a waterfall, its silvery sheen glittering in the night as it swayed gently with a lively grace. She looked at the muscular men with panic and despair, fear and unease in her eyes. Her hands lightly twisted together, as though she were waiting for a hero to save her from peril. That frail posture seemed like the most fragile beauty in the world, softening one's heart until all one wanted was to pull her into one's arms and shelter her from the wind and rain.

At that moment, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao stared straight ahead.

Any thoughts of not offending a local tyrant were completely thrown to the back of their minds.

"I, Tang Hao, and Tang Xiao are peerless heroes. How can we stand by and watch these villains bully an innocent woman without saving her!"

"Beasts, let go of that woman! Let me, Tang Hao, be... your opponent!"

"What kind of man bullies women? Today, I, Tang Xiao, will teach you a lesson on behalf of justice!"

The two brothers immediately summoned their Clear Sky Hammer martial souls, charged forward, and began slaughtering their foes.

Among them, Tang Hao's attacks were the fiercest. Already immersed in slaughter, Tang Hao fought with complete abandon.

During the battle, the woman twisted her ankle and fell toward the ground. Sharp-eyed Tang Xiao immediately withdrew, came to her side, and helped her up like a gentleman. "Are you all right?"

The woman raised her head, her watery eyes staring directly at Tang Xiao. In that instant, Tang Xiao's soul was hooked—so... so beautiful! At that moment, there was no one else in Tang Xiao's eyes. There was only her.

"I-I'm fine." The woman's face flushed slightly, her heart pounding like a drum. So handsome, so dashing, such a gentle man. In her watery eyes, only Tang Xiao's rugged yet gentle face remained.

The two gazed deeply into each other's eyes, and one look lasted ten thousand years.

She must be looking at me, right? She must have been drawn to my heroic bearing, right? The more Tang Hao thought about it, the more excited he became, and the braver he fought. Alone, he took on more than ten opponents, smashing one lackey at a time with each swing of his hammer. He even forced Soul Saint Zhao Hu into a steady retreat with the strength of a Spirit Emperor. Finally, he shouted and swung the Clear Sky Hammer down from above. Zhao Hu's skull instantly split apart, brain matter splattering everywhere.

She must be watching me with admiration, deeply captivated by my heroic appearance at this very moment, right? Tang Hao tossed the Clear Sky Hammer aside, spread his arms wide, and displayed his bronze muscles as he let out a roar of male courtship. Then he beat his fists against his chest, producing booming thuds as he fully displayed his masculine vigor.

Strange, where was her voice? Where was her praise? Where was her adoring gaze?

After beating his chest for a long while, Tang Hao finally realized something was wrong. He turned around and saw a scene that broke his heart—

His brother Tang Xiao was holding the woman in his arms, and she too was gazing at his brother with deep affection.

"My name is Blue Silver. You can call me Ah Yin. What about you, benefactor?" Ah Yin's voice was gentle as water.

"My name is Tang Xiao. You can call me Ah Xiao, or Brother Xiao." Tang Xiao gazed at Ah Yin in a daze.

At that moment, Tang Hao felt like a clown!

Acting on instinct, Tang Hao walked over to the two of them and interrupted the tender moment. "You're Ah Yin, right? My name is Tang Hao. Those bad guys who bullied you have already been dealt with by me. So, was your Brother Hao impressive or not?" Hurry up and praise me!

Tang Hao wagged his tail as though seeking credit, pointing behind him.

Only then did Ah Yin turn around. She saw Tang Hao's resolute face, then followed his finger to the scene behind him—a group of soul masters sprawled haphazardly across the ground, some barely clinging to life, others with their brains splattered out.

"Ah—how terrifying!" Ah Yin had never seen such a bloody scene before. Her face went pale, and she let out a scream before fearfully throwing herself into Tang Xiao's arms.

Tang Xiao gently comforted Ah Yin.

Feeling the heartbeat in Tang Xiao's chest, Ah Yin's terrified heart finally calmed down. She instinctively complained about Tang Hao, "So crude!"

Tang Hao: "..."

At that moment, Tang Hao felt that he had been born in the wrong place. He should have been born in Gotham.
