"Anyway, my engagement to Cheng Xiao was arranged by Father."

"If you don't believe me, go ask Father."

"In any case, you're not allowed to bully Cheng Xiao!"

As she spoke, Tang Yuehua bared her teeth at brothers Tang Hao and Tang Xiao like a little tiger protecting its food, trying to look fiercer so her two brothers would be intimidated by her ferocious expression.

Tang Yuehua wanted to use the expression on her face to scare off her two older brothers.

See? I'm not easy to mess with. I'm very fierce!

To Qian Chengxiao, Tang Yuehua's display and the little expression on her face were simply adorable and endearing.

This Little Lass really became prettier and cuter the more he looked at her.

But to Tang Hao and Tang Xiao, Tang Yuehua's adorable expression was heartbreaking.

There was no need to think about it. Even if they did, they would know with their heels that the brat called Cheng Xiao had used some kind of witchcraft on their younger sister, turning her completely into his shape.

Just look at how fiercely she was protecting him.

Even when the two of them had made mistakes and their younger sister had stood before them to stop Father from beating them, she had never been this resolute.

"Kid, what's your name?"

Tang Hao knew full well that his younger sister had completely become the other party's person. It was useless no matter how much they objected.

Besides, their younger sister had said that her engagement to this brat had been personally arranged by Father.

Most importantly, this brat who had appeared out of nowhere was quite popular in the Clear Sky Sect.

The two brothers had only left the Clear Sky Sect for a little over a month. How had the sect changed so much?

If they had known, they should have asked about what had happened in the sect before coming to see their younger sister.

That way, they would have known this brat existed and known about his engagement to their younger sister. They would not have caused such an absurd misunderstanding, nor would their younger sister be upset with them now because of him.

Having figured it out, Tang Hao looked at Qian Chengxiao and asked.

"Are you Yuehua's Big Brother and Second Brother, brothers Tang Xiao and Tang Hao?"

"I am Tang Chengxiao, Yuehua's fiancé."

"Whew~"

After hearing Qian Chengxiao's introduction, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao both took several deep breaths, trying to calm their emotions slightly.

"Hm?"

Once their emotions settled, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao's eyes widened as they stared at Qian Chengxiao, their gazes filled with shock.

"Y-you're so young, yet you've already become a Great Soul Master."

"And your Soul Power has actually reached twenty—"

Just as Tang Hao was about to state Qian Chengxiao's Soul Power Level, the Soul Power of Qian Chengxiao, standing beside Tang Yuehua, suddenly rose once more.

It went directly from level twenty-seven to level twenty-eight.

"Holy shit!!!"

Tang Hao and Tang Xiao were utterly stunned as they watched Qian Chengxiao's Soul Power rise by a level in the middle of speaking.

Fuck me! Fuck me!

This brat looked only one or two years older than their younger sister, seven or eight at most.

Yet his Soul Power had already reached level twenty-eight.

And what about them? At this age, their Soul Power had only just broken through to the Soul Master rank!

Just as Tang Hao and Tang Xiao were stunned by Qian Chengxiao's talent, a hearty laugh sounded from the doorway.

"Hahaha, you two brats actually came back."

"Come, come, Little Hao, A-Xiao, you two brats have finally returned."

"Let me introduce Cheng Xiao to you."

As the voice rang out, Tang Tian laughed so happily that he seemed to walk with a breeze at his back.

Ever since Qian Chengxiao had appeared, he felt as though he walked with a breeze every day. He was that dashing man.

"Huh?"

Seeing their old man so happy and hearing his words, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao knew their younger sister truly had not lied to them.

This damned brat who had taken their younger sister away really was the husband Father had chosen for her.

"Cheng Xiao, these two disappointing things are my eldest and second sons."

"Tang Xiao and Tang Hao!"

As Tang Tian spoke, he pointed at Tang Xiao and Tang Hao, introducing them to Qian Chengxiao.

Then, Tang Tian pointed at Qian Chengxiao and said to his two sons, "This is Cheng Xiao, Tang Chengxiao, a descendant of our Clear Sky Sect who had been lost outside."

"As for his talent, you've seen it yourselves."

"He's far stronger than you two brats."

"Cheng Xiao is only seven, yet he's already a level twen—"

"A level twenty-eight Great Soul Master."

When Tang Tian saw that Qian Chengxiao's cultivation had risen another level since yesterday, his heart jolted.

This brat really was a freak. His Clear Sky Sect was going to rise!

After thinking that, Tang Tian pointed at Qian Chengxiao and continued, "This child Cheng Xiao doesn't merely possess our Clear Sky Sect's Haotian Hammer martial soul. He was born with twin martial souls."

"Moreover, his other martial soul is also of the highest grade. It is the most powerful martial soul I have ever seen, without equal. Even our Clear Sky Sect's Haotian Hammer cannot compare to it."

"Huh?"

After Tang Tian finished speaking, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao were both dumbfounded.

Was this brat really that monstrous?

"Father, I want to spar with him."

"Potential alone is meaningless without combat ability."

"I want to see what kind of person you and my younger sister have chosen."

After coming back to his senses, Tang Hao looked at Qian Chengxiao, who stood beside Tang Yuehua while she gazed at him with infatuated eyes, and made his request to Father.

Before Tang Tian could answer, Tang Hao spoke again. "Of course, I won't bully him."

"I'm level thirty-two right now. I'll suppress my Soul Power to his level."

"I don't need him to defeat me. As long as he can last half an incense stick against me, I'll acknowledge him!"

"You..."

Hearing the request from the son he had once been proudest of, Tang Tian found himself in a difficult position.

After all, Tang Hao was the prodigy of the Clear Sky Sect, one that appeared only once in a century.

Before Qian Chengxiao appeared, he had been Tang Tian's greatest pride.

But after Qian Chengxiao appeared, this once-in-a-century prodigy truly was not much to look at compared to Qian Chengxiao, a peerless freak who appeared once in ten thousand years.

When Tang Hao made his request, Tang Tian was tempted as well.

After all, he had only seen Qian Chengxiao's talent and potential. He had never seen Qian Chengxiao's combat ability.

But on the other hand, Qian Chengxiao was now the descendant most highly valued by him—no, by the entire upper echelon of the Clear Sky Sect.

And within the Clear Sky Sect, there was no one at the same level who could defeat Hao'er.

Even Hao'er's Big Brother, Tang Xiao, the son Tang Tian had once been proud of, was no match for Tang Hao at the same level.

If Hao'er showed no mercy and somehow dealt Cheng Xiao a blow, it would not be good...

Just as Tang Tian was conflicted by Tang Hao's request, Tang Yuehua, who knew how formidable her Second Brother was, stepped in front of Qian Chengxiao and shielded him behind her.

"Second Brother, what are you doing?"

"I'm telling you, if you dare bully my Husband, I-I won't speak to you for a whole month!"

"Yuehua~"

Seeing Tang Yuehua protect Qian Chengxiao so fiercely, Tang Hao was so frustrated that he nearly choked.

"Alright, silly."

"Don't stand in front of me anymore. After all, I'm your man."

"If I can't satisfy my two brothers-in-law and cause problems between you and them because of me, that would be my fault."

"This is a battle between men. Don't interfere, be good!"

As Qian Chengxiao spoke, he placed a hand on Tang Yuehua's Little Head and gently rubbed it. Then he pinched her small, adorable nose, his face full of affection. As he leaned closer to Tang Yuehua, Qian Chengxiao whispered into her ear, "Besides, I won't lose!"

"Don't worry. At worst, I'll go easy on him and hit Big Brother-in-law a little more lightly."

"Trust me, alright?"

After Qian Chengxiao finished speaking, Tang Yuehua's little face instantly turned red, and she nodded softly.

After all, she had not heard a word of what Qian Chengxiao had said beside her ear.

It was not because Qian Chengxiao had spoken too quietly, but because she had no mind to listen.

When Qian Chengxiao leaned close to whisper in her ear, she felt the breath from his mouth brush against it.

That scorching breath left her entire body hot and weak.

If Father, Big Brother, and Second Brother had not been present, and if she had not forced herself to hold on, she would probably have already gone limp against Qian Chengxiao, wishing she could cling to him and become his accessory.

Although Tang Yuehua had not heard what Qian Chengxiao said, and Tang Xiao and Tang Hao were too far away to hear clearly, Tang Tian was a Title Douluo. Unless someone used voice transmission, no matter how quietly they spoke, nothing within this Small Courtyard could escape him.

When he heard what Qian Chengxiao had said to his daughter, his brows unconsciously lifted slightly.

What an arrogant brat. But this old man liked it.

The men of his Clear Sky Sect should be like this.

If one was not young and hot-blooded, could one still be called young?

Young people should be reckless and proud, with the passion of youth.

Hopefully, this brat would not be discouraged by Hao'er.

But judging by the looks of it, this brat was unlikely to be discouraged.

After all, this brat's youthful arrogance was even more outrageous than Tang Tian's had been back then.

Even if he were defeated by Hao'er, he would not be unable to recover, much less suffer a setback.

Thinking of this, Tang Tian began to look forward to it.

Although Tang Hao, standing beside Tang Tian, had not heard what Qian Chengxiao whispered to Tang Yuehua, his impression of Qian Chengxiao had improved considerably.

Though the person who had taken his younger sister was hateful, she could not remain young forever, nor could she stay unmarried forever.

And Qian Chengxiao was someone Father was very satisfied with, and someone his younger sister was also extremely satisfied with.

On top of that, Qian Chengxiao had stepped forward to accept the challenge voluntarily. Based on that alone, Tang Hao had begun to acknowledge Qian Chengxiao in his heart.

"Kid, you're not bad."

"You're a man!"

"Since that's the case, as long as you can last half an incense stick against me, I'll acknowledge you!"

As Tang Hao spoke, he directly summoned his Haotian Hammer martial soul.

As the martial soul appeared, three Soul Rings—two yellow and one purple—slowly rose beneath his feet.

"Then I hope Big Brother-in-law will show mercy!"

Qian Chengxiao gave Tang Hao a slight smile as he watched him summon his martial soul.

Then Qian Chengxiao took a step forward. With that step, two Soul Rings slowly emerged beneath his feet.

When the purple and black Soul Rings rose from beneath Qian Chengxiao's feet, Tang Hao, who had been about to say something, was instantly dumbfounded.

It was not just Tang Hao. Even Tang Xiao, a level fifty-five Soul King, was dumbfounded when he saw the Thousand-Year Soul Ring and Ten Thousand-Year Soul Ring appearing around Qian Chengxiao.

It was not that Thousand-Year Soul Rings and Ten Thousand-Year Soul Rings were rare. Tang Xiao himself possessed two Thousand-Year Soul Rings and one Ten Thousand-Year Soul Ring.

But the fucking monstrous part was that this brat only had two Soul Rings. His First Soul Ring was a Thousand-Year Soul Ring, and his second was a Ten Thousand-Year Soul Ring.

Where the fuck had this monster come from?

After all, the two brothers only knew that Qian Chengxiao had been born with twin martial souls, possessed exceptional cultivation talent, and was the number one person in the Clear Sky Sect.

But Father had not told them that not only had this brat become a Great Soul Master at such a young age, he also possessed a Thousand-Year Soul Ring and a Ten Thousand-Year Soul Ring.

Fuck me, it was like facing a little loli and getting ready to do the deed, after already taking your clothes off.

Only for her to pull out something twice as big as yours.

That utterly shocking sight left Tang Xiao and Tang Hao completely dumbfounded.

Fortunately, Tang Hao was no weakling. Within a few breaths, he recovered from his shock.

After returning to his senses, Tang Hao looked at the two Soul Rings beneath Qian Chengxiao's feet, a trace of bitterness appearing in his eyes.

Fuck me, if I'd known your first and second Soul Rings were a Thousand-Year and Ten Thousand-Year Soul Ring, there's no way I would've boasted so shamelessly.

Qian Chengxiao watched Tang Hao recover from his shock and smiled faintly. "Since Big Brother-in-law has come back to his senses, then I'll make my move!"

Hearing Qian Chengxiao's words, Tang Hao's eyes widened slightly. Then the bitterness in his gaze vanished, replaced by excitement. "Kid, I acknowledge you!"

"I, Tang Hao, declare you the strongest at the same level!"

"Since you're this monstrous, I won't suppress my strength anymore!"

"Let us have a showdown between men—a fierce, satisfying battle!"

After Tang Hao spoke, the Soul Rings beneath his feet glowed faintly. "Second Soul Skill: Haotian Dance!"

As Tang Hao's words fell, he gripped his Haotian Hammer and charged straight at Qian Chengxiao.

As for Qian Chengxiao, hearing Tang Hao's hot-blooded, cringeworthy words before launching his attack, he laughed inwardly.

Young people really are too young. This is way too cringe.

Moreover, there was something he had never understood.

Why did everyone on the Douluo Continent have to shout out their Soul Skills before fighting?

Wouldn't that let their enemies know what their Soul Skills were?

What, did shouting louder make them stronger?

"Sigh~"

Whether because of that thought or something else, Qian Chengxiao sighed softly as he watched Tang Hao charge at him.

Then, as he watched Tang Hao rush toward him, he silently recited in his heart.

First Soul Skill: Fallen Angel's Protection.

As Qian Chengxiao silently recited it in his heart, his First Soul Ring—the Thousand-Year Soul Ring—glowed faintly.

Just as Tang Hao charged in front of Qian Chengxiao and raised his hammer to strike down at his head, the Twelve-Winged Fallen Angel behind Qian Chengxiao flashed with black light, as though it had come alive.
