Peerless Dragon Snake

!

Sure enough, Bibi Dong had barely finished her cordial conversation with Qin Shiyuan.

Then she turned and looked straight at Tang Hao, who was already beside himself with rage. She immediately went on the offensive, gleefully adding fuel to the fire. "Hehe, who would have thought that the mighty Clear Sky Douluo would one day be toyed with like a homeless cur?"

"Tsk, tsk. Back then, your wife was driven by our Spirit Hall to sacrifice herself. Now, your son's little girlfriend won't be so fortunate."

"Having fallen into Tower Master Qin's hands, she should obediently become someone else's Spirit Ring."

"Still, Tower Master Qin possesses such exceptional talent. Your future daughter-in-law isn't getting the short end of the stick."

"It's much better than ending up like you did back then—sacrificing herself for that useless son of yours, isn't it?"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Bibi Dong's laughter even carried Soul Power, echoing through the air several times without showing any sign of fading.

Even Qin Shiyuan, an outsider to the matter, could not help secretly admiring the sheer viciousness of Bibi Dong's words.

If even Qin Shiyuan felt that way, there was no need to mention Tang Hao, who had already been on the verge of erupting like a volcano.

"Bibi Dong! Are you courting death!!!!"

Every word Bibi Dong spoke was like a spear stabbing viciously into his heart.

Tang Hao's heart, already riddled with wounds, seemed to be tightly gripped by a pair of giant hands, crushing him until he could barely breathe.

Ah Yin being forced to sacrifice herself was the greatest pain in Tang Hao's heart, and the thing he could never forget.

Because of it, a high-spirited Titled Douluo had even been willing to hide away in a mortal village and forge iron for the rest of his life.

And now, Bibi Dong had raised the blade again, carving several deep wounds into that old scar right before his eyes.

What was more, she had even dragged in the one ray of light that had pulled him back from the abyss—Tang San!

One could easily imagine just how terrifyingly Tang Hao's fury was burning now.

"Dad! I rescued Xiao Wu!"

Just as the tension was about to ignite, an incomparably excited voice suddenly rang out from afar.

Hearing that familiar voice, Tang Hao turned his head and saw his son rushing toward him with an excited expression.

In Tang San's arms was none other than Xiao Wu, heavily wounded and unconscious!

"Dad! I rescued Xiao Wu while they weren't paying attention!"

"Quick! Quick! Kill them! Don't let a single one go!"

"I want them dead! They dared hurt Xiao Wu like this! They all have to die!"

Hearing Tang San's hysterical roar, Tang Hao believed him.

Already standing at the brink of an outburst, he could no longer think calmly.

Why could a mere Soul Ancestor rescue a living person from beneath the noses of Titled Douluo?

"Good! Good! Good!!!"

"I can finally... fight without holding back!!!"

"Bibi Dong, just you wait!"

"After I deal with this bunch of trash, Spirit Hall will be next!!"

With that, Tang Hao shot directly into the sky, his blood-red eyes fixed tightly on Qin Shiyuan.

The next moment, the crimson Ninth Spirit Ring behind him lit up without warning.

"Ninth Spirit Ability, Slaughter Barrier!"

As the largest Clear Sky Hammer yet descended from the heavens,

Tang Hao's ultimate strike, containing his boundless fury, directly enveloped Qin Shiyuan head-on.

The force that seemed capable of shattering ten thousand mountains intertwined with dense, overwhelming killing intent.

Even Bibi Dong, a Titled Douluo standing hundreds of meters away from the center of the battlefield,

could not help feeling a flicker of fear in her heart at that hammer strike!

"Star-Plucking Tower! You're all staying here!!!!!"

Tang Hao roared, and that colossal hammer that blotted out the sky drew everyone's attention.

Yet no one noticed the mysterious curve that appeared at the corner of Qin Shiyuan's lips beneath it.

The giant hammer rapidly pressed down, and soon, less than ten meters remained between it and Qin Shiyuan.

Its immense pressure had even begun to slowly melt the ground.

Qin Shiyuan finally moved, but all he did was smile simply.

"Tang Hao, this strike of yours is powerful, but unfortunately, it still can't kill me..."

"If you want to play, then I'll have someone keep you company..."

"Two Deacons, go. Spar with the Clear Sky Douluo..."

"As you command, Tower Lord!"

Two figures answered in unison, instantly appearing half a step behind Qin Shiyuan.

"So this is his backup? Who could withstand Tang Hao in this state?"

Bibi Dong stood quietly before Spirit Hall's gates, her expression grave.

Confusion filled her beautiful eyes as she stared intently at the two black-robed figures making their first appearance.

The next moment, as though they had arranged it beforehand, the two black-robed figures simultaneously reached out and pulled down the hoods covering their faces.

What came into view were two aged faces, yet faces that countless people could name at a glance.

"Dragon Duke, Snake Matriarch? This is... the Peerless Dragon Snake!!!"

"How could it be them? Aren't they only a Soul Emperor and Soul Saint? How could they dare face the Clear Sky Douluo?"

"Wait! Could it be!!!"

Just as everyone present realized what was happening, Dragon Duke and Snake Matriarch beneath the giant hammer gave a low shout and released their Martial Souls at the same time.

"Martial Soul: Serpent Cane!"

"Martial Soul: Dragon Staff!"

The instant the dragon and serpent staves appeared, more than a dozen bursts of ringing echoed through the air. Eighteen Spirit Rings instantly occupied more than half the sky.

Their Spirit Ring configurations were identical to Shi Nian's earlier—two yellow, two purple, and five black!

"They... they've become Titled Douluo too..."

If, upon first seeing Shi Nian become a Titled Douluo, everyone could still assume he had encountered some fortunate opportunity,

then now, only one thought remained in everyone's minds.

Star-Plucking Tower... could create Titled Douluo!

"Wait! It is said that the Peerless Dragon Snake possesses a perfect-grade Martial Soul Fusion Skill."

"The couple became famous throughout the continent because, while still at the Soul Emperor stage, they used that Martial Soul Fusion Skill to withstand several attacks from a Titled Douluo."

"A Soul Emperor could withstand a Titled Douluo???"

"Now that both of them are Titled Douluo, if they use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill again, wouldn't that mean..."

In an instant, the entire scene fell silent. It was as though everyone had imagined that world-destroying terror, and the oppressive feeling nearly made them forget how to breathe.

"So this is... your trump card..."

Bibi Dong stared blankly at Dragon Duke and Snake Matriarch in the distance, her lips moving in an unconscious murmur.

After who knew how many years, a thick fog once more veiled her eyes.

So thick... that she could no longer see the road ahead...

Unfortunately, Qin Shiyuan did not hear what she said. Otherwise, he would certainly have given her an answer in his heart.

A trump card? Not quite!
