Haotian Sect Master's Ecstasy! Tang Yuehua's Curiosity!

"Child, what exactly is that Martial Soul of yours that can add Soul Rings?"

As Qian Chengxiao gradually calmed down, Tang Tian, standing before him, looked at him curiously.

"My first Martial Soul is somewhat similar to that enemy who killed my parents."

"However, my Martial Soul disgusted him. He called me a child of evil. If not for my Mother being there, I would have died long ago."

"If Mother hadn't risked her life to protect me, I probably wouldn't have made it here."

At this point, Qian Chengxiao's eyes were filled with regret. "Why did I have to possess that kind of Martial Soul? If not for this Martial Soul, Mother probably wouldn't have died either."

As he spoke, Qian Chengxiao's mood became incomparably despondent.

Qian Chengxiao's words made everyone, already curious about his Martial Soul, even more curious.

Child, if you're going to say it, then say it. Now that you've finished, why aren't you releasing your Martial Soul for us to see?

At the very least, let us see what kind of Martial Soul could make Chihiro Ji so eager to get rid of you.

Tang Yuehua, who had been quietly watching Qian Chengxiao from the swing, grew increasingly curious as she looked at him.

At the same time, her heart ached for him more and more.

His background and fate were simply too bitter.

"Well, Cheng Xiao, could you show us that Martial Soul of yours?"

Tang Jiu saw the look Tang Tian gave him and gently asked Qian Chengxiao in a probing tone.

"Mm."

The moment Qian Chengxiao spoke, a figure over two meters tall slowly emerged behind him.

As the black shadow appeared, its once blurry outline gradually solidified.

With a boom, twelve enormous black wings unfurled behind the shadow's back, while a Black Iron Mask covered its face.

Both hands gripped a Black Longsword, held upright before it.

"Th-this is..."

"What kind of Martial Soul is this?"

"Even Chihiro Ji's top-tier Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul doesn't possess such overwhelming pressure."

"Moreover, Chihiro Ji's Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul has golden wings, and only six of them."

"Cheng Xiao's Angel Martial Soul is completely black, and it has as many as twelve wings."

"Could this be the legendary god-grade Martial Soul that surpasses top-tier Martial Souls?"

Tang Jiu, standing not far from Qian Chengxiao, was utterly shocked by the Martial Soul Qian Chengxiao had released.

Not only Tang Jiu—even Tang Tian, the well-informed Haotian Sect Master, was completely stunned after seeing Qian Chengxiao's Martial Soul.

He... he had truly found a treasure.

It seemed even heaven was favoring him.

Everyone surrounding Qian Chengxiao was shocked by the Twelve-Winged Fallen Angel Martial Soul he had released. For a moment, none of them noticed the Soul Rings rising beneath Qian Chengxiao's feet.

Tang Yuehua, seated on the swing, was likewise so shocked by the Twelve-Winged Fallen Angel Martial Soul Qian Chengxiao had released that her mind went blank.

But after Tang Yuehua slightly recovered, she, whose gaze had remained fixed on Qian Chengxiao, widened her eyes and cried out in disbelief, "Ah~"

"Yuehua, what's wrong?"

Tang Yuehua's cry immediately snapped Tang Tian out of his daze, and he turned to look at her.

Hearing her Father's words, Tang Yuehua raised a trembling finger toward Qian Chengxiao and stammered, "F-Father..."

"Y-you, look at his Soul Rings!"

As soon as Tang Yuehua said this, Tang Tian abruptly turned back and stared at the two Soul Rings floating around Qian Chengxiao.

∑(っ°Д°;)っHoly shit!

This was like drying Sichuan pepper at the neighbor's door—his neighbors had gone completely numb!

What... what kind of monster was this?

One purple and one black Soul Ring—was this for real?

It was perfectly normal for a Soul Master to attach a Thousand-Year Soul Ring or a Ten Thousand-Year Soul Ring. There was nothing surprising about that.

Even if some exceptionally capable Title Douluo possessed a 100,000 Years Soul Ring, it would only mean their talent and strength were remarkable enough to kill a 100,000-year Soul Beast.

But... but this child had a Thousand-Year Soul Ring as his First Soul Ring, and a Ten Thousand-Year Soul Ring as his second.

This had already shattered the rules of Douluo Continent. Across the entire Douluo Continent, there wasn't a single Soul Master whose First Soul Ring was at the thousand-year level, much less one whose second Soul Ring was already at the ten-thousand-year level.

"Th-this..."

Tang Jiu and Tang Lei, the two brothers who were also looking at Qian Chengxiao's Soul Rings, now looked at him completely differently.

What monster? He was practically an aberration.

And the kind of aberration that appeared only once in ten thousand years.

If they hadn't felt the soul pressure released by Qian Chengxiao's two Soul Rings, they would have thought their eyes were playing tricks on them—or that those two Soul Rings were fake.

At this moment, in the vast Small Courtyard, everyone except Qian Chengxiao himself was frozen in shock, their eyes filled with disbelief as they looked at him.

Seeing their shocked expressions, Qian Chengxiao laughed inwardly.

This time, it had to be secure, right?

Although he was excited by the success of his infiltration, his face did not reveal the slightest flaw. Instead, his eyes were filled with sorrow, and his face carried an expression of dejection.

Tang Tian and the others failed to notice the dejection on Qian Chengxiao's face and the sorrow in his eyes. Only Tang Yuehua, seated on the swing, carefully noticed them.

After Qian Chengxiao withdrew his Martial Soul, Tang Tian and the others still had not recovered from the shock he had brought them.

Tang Yuehua, on the other hand, looked at the lonely Qian Chengxiao. The curiosity in her eyes had been entirely replaced by heartache.

How much pain had he endured?

What had he gone through?

She seemed to want to understand him.

The sorrow in his eyes must have come from remembering the Mother who had sacrificed herself for him, while the desolation on his face must have been because he blamed himself for his helplessness.

Heaven had given him heaven-defying cultivation talent and peerless looks, yet had made his fate so rough, so ill-starred, so miserable.

The sorrow the world had brought him was simply too much, far too much.

She wanted to understand him. She wanted this boy, about the same age as her, who should have been happy and carefree like her, but now lived in sorrow...

She wanted to lead him out from the abyss, out of his grief.

She wanted to see him smile, just as she could smile.

At that thought, Tang Yuehua quietly clenched her tiny fists.

Cheng Xiao, Cheng Xiao, Tang Chengxiao, I, Tang Yuehua, will definitely lead you out of that world of sorrow and let you embrace new light.

From now on, I will be your light.

At that moment, Tang Yuehua made up her mind.

She believed she merely wanted to help him escape his tragic world, unaware that from this moment onward, she had already fallen into the river of love.

Every stirring of the heart began with curiosity.

Every case of love at first sight was nothing more than being attracted by a pretty face.
