Tang Hao Backed Down, The One-Strike Pact

"You!"

As Xiao Chen's words fell, Tang Hao's eyes flew wide open, as if they were about to pop out of their sockets. His expression was utterly savage.

At that moment, Titled Douluo-level Soul Power erupted wildly from his body, sweeping across the entire area and forcing Flender and Zhao Wuji beside him to hunch over.

Even though the Soul Rings around them flickered continuously, they still found it difficult to withstand that immense pressure. They were on the verge of being blown away on the spot.

After all, the source of that aura was Tang Hao.

A level 95 Titled Douluo!

As for Xiao Chen?

He still stood where he was expressionlessly, with not a trace of fear on his face.

Protected by the token hovering before him, surrounded by blue lightning and Dragon Might, he was completely unaffected by Tang Hao's aura.

"Who exactly are you? How do you know all this?!"

Xiao Chen said nothing.

"Huff."

Seeing this, Tang Hao quickly calmed down again.

His expression darkened as he stared at the token in front of Xiao Chen, and several guesses began forming in his mind.

He could clearly sense the terrifying Soul Power fluctuations and Dragon Might contained within that token.

Its power was likely no weaker than his own!

If that token were to erupt completely, this entire area—and Tang San, who was still resting in the nearby dormitory—would all be swallowed up.

Most importantly, the token carried the aura of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul.

And within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the only one capable of possessing Soul Power of such intensity was that old dragon.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan Head, Yu Yuanzhen!

Damn it.

Xiao Chen was definitely an alias. After all, there was no such surname in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

He had been tricked by this brat!

If things truly reached the point of no return, then so be it if his son Tang San died. Preserving his own life was more important.

After all, if a son died, he could always have another.

So, the most important question for him now was:

How exactly did this person in front of him know information about his wife, Ah Yin?!

He was not currently by his wife Ah Yin's side. If he killed Xiao Chen now, would the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan immediately make a move against his wife?

After all, even a little brat like Xiao Chen knew Ah Yin's location.

There were probably quite a few people in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan who knew this information as well.

So, for the time being, he could not touch Xiao Chen!

"Why does it matter who I am? You're bullying the young with your strength, and you still think you're in the right?"

Xiao Chen looked at Tang Hao calmly, without the slightest hint of fear.

With this token capable of unleashing the destructive power of a level 95 Titled Douluo's self-destruction, along with the nine seconds of invincibility granted by the Third Soul Skill of his God Slaying Sword—

He was confident that once he acted, he could injure Tang Hao with the blast and then retreat unscathed.

Besides, Tang Hao's current demeanor clearly showed that he had reservations.

Tang Hao was worried that he would make a move against the hundred-thousand-year transformed soul beast, the Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin!

"You!"

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Tang Hao was rendered speechless. He could only glare fiercely at Xiao Chen.

He looked as though he wanted to skin him alive and devour him on the spot.

Flender: ...

Zhao Wuji: ...

Was this little brat seriously that fearless? Did he not know who was standing before him right now?

That was the Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao.

Were all members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan this fearless?!

Yu Xiaogang excluded.

Wait!

To be precise, Tang Hao's temper had only eased slightly after hearing the name "Ah Yin."

Could Ah Yin be Tang Hao's wife?

Had they just overheard some unbelievable secret...?

"You're that old dragon's heir, aren't you?"

Seeing that Xiao Chen remained calm, Tang Hao gritted his teeth and voiced his guess.

Given the current situation, the boy before him could only be the heir of that old dragon from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

And even he could not casually make a move against the heir of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's Clan Head.

Back then, after he attacked Spirit Hall's Pope, he had ended up separated from his wife and son, forced to conceal his identity.

If he provoked the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan again, with that old dragon's explosive temper, he would definitely fight Tang Hao to the death over this matter.

By then, even if Tang Hao truly managed to kill him, he himself would be seriously wounded.

Kill a thousand enemies, lose eight hundred of his own—both sides would suffer!

What's more, the other side had no need to fight him one-on-one. They could simply join forces with Spirit Hall.

At that point, he truly would have no way up to heaven or down to earth. His days ahead would become extremely difficult...

Though his heart was filled with helplessness, Tang Hao could only compromise in the end. Pretending to be dignified and magnanimous, he spoke indifferently.

"For that old dragon's sake, I won't hold your insolence today against you. You may leave."

Right now, he only wanted to leave this place as quickly as possible, then take his wife, Ah Yin, somewhere else to hide.

Hearing Tang Hao's words, Flender and Zhao Wuji both let out a breath of relief.

It seemed that today's matter would end here. Their lives were probably safe.

"You won't hold it against me? You were clearly the one who attacked first, yet now you're acting as though you're in the right."

"What? Just because our Clan Head hasn't made a move these past few years, you think he's truly grown old? You really think the dragon claws of our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan have gone dull?"

Tang Hao had just been about to leave when Xiao Chen's voice rang out again the next moment, his attitude incomparably forceful.

"What the fuck do you want?"

Upon hearing Xiao Chen's words, Tang Hao's chest heaved violently. His eyes were bloodshot, and killing intent surged from his entire body.

He had never been a good man. In the past, he had even been extremely battle-hungry and bad-tempered.

And now, a mere Three-ring Soul Master with just a tiny bit of talent dared to act so outrageously before him.

How could he possibly remain calm?

If not for the other party being that old dragon's heir from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan—

If not for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan knowing Ah Yin's whereabouts, and for there being a high chance that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had spies lying in wait near Ah Yin—

If he had not needed to hurry back, he would have smashed Xiao Chen to death with one hammer long ago!

"It's simple. Throw one hammer strike so I can practice my swordsmanship. After that one strike, I'll temporarily refrain from holding today's matter of you bullying the weak against you."

"!"

Tang Hao's mentality shattered on the spot.

Fuck.

Who exactly is the Titled Douluo here—you or me?

You little bastard, don't get too arrogant!

"Ding!"

"Tang Hao's emotional fluctuations have undergone multiple intense shifts, meeting the Hidden Quest criteria..."
