Xiao Wu let out a furious roar and looked angrily toward both Tang San and Mengiran.
"Xiao Wu!"
Zhao Wuji, Dai Mubai, and the others nearby were both startled and delighted when they saw Xiao Wu appear.
But immediately, they could not feel happy anymore.
Because they saw Sun Sheng.
He was walking over from the exact direction Xiao Wu had charged out of.
"Xiao Wu, listen to my explanation. Things aren't what you think..."
Of course Tang San was happy upon seeing Xiao Wu.
Yet seeing the look of rage on her face, he immediately thought of the moment earlier when Meng Yiran had kissed his cheek.
Needless to say, Xiao Wu had seen it.
Thus, he hurried to offer an explanation.
However, Xiao Wu was in the heat of anger right then, so how could she possibly listen?
"I won't listen to your explanation."
"Third Brother, why? Why are you so close to this big vixen?"
"For six years, I couldn't even bear it."
"You, you actually gave your first time to her."
"Sob, sob, sob, sob..."
The more Xiao Wu spoke, the more her heart ached, until finally she squatted on the ground and wept bitterly.
Seeing this scene, Sun Sheng secretly rejoiced.
Then, a flash of inspiration crossed his mind, and he thought of a way to make this fire burn even brighter.
"Xiao Wu, be good, we won't cry."
"Let's go. We'll ignore Tang San from now on."
Sun Sheng walked to Xiao Wu's side, glanced sideways at Tang San, and bent down to comfort her in a soft voice.
Upon seeing Sun Sheng, Tang San furrowed his brow, his face bearing a displeased expression.
Only then did he realize that Xiao Wu seemed to have come over together with Sun Sheng.
At the mere thought of this, Tang San felt a bellyful of suppressed rage and roared fiercely, "Sun Sheng, you're the one making trouble again! Just what do you want?"
"Tang San, who are you roaring at?"
"What do you mean by 'just what do I want'? It's clearly your fault for abandoning Xiao Wu's love for you."
"Did I make her kiss you of her own accord?"
Sun Sheng was completely unfazed and immediately shot back.
By the way, he also gave a direct glance at Meng Yiran.
Yet the moment he saw Meng Yiran at close range, his entire body shuddered slightly.
So big!
Truly so big!
This was the largest one he had seen since coming to Douluo Continent.
If he were to rate her in that regard, it should be at least a grade six (with nine being the highest and grade one being the lowest).
Even a grade seven would not be an exaggeration.
Putting aside Meng Yiran's appearance, just this scorching hot figure alone was enough to look down upon all heroes with disdain.
Not to mention, Meng Yiran also possessed a delicate, pointed seed-shaped face, which was simply like adding wings to a tiger, the icing on the cake.
Gulp!
Sun Sheng swallowed a mouthful of saliva and forcefully dragged his attention back to Xiao Wu.
He would take Meng Yiran down later when the opportunity arose.
Right now, subverting the relationship between Xiao Wu and Tang San was of the utmost importance.
"You..."
Hearing his words, Tang San was consumed by anger and trembling all over.
No matter how angry he grew, he had no way to refute it.
This matter truly was his fault.
Yet, how could this be such a coincidence?
Why did Xiao Wu have to witness this exact scene?
Regardless of how much he doubted the matter, however, the most important thing right now was to explain it clearly to Xiao Wu.
"Xiao Wu, listen to my explanation. Things really aren't the way you saw them."
Tang San crouched down, placed a hand on her back, and coaxed her softly.
"Take away your dirty hands! I don't want to hear your explanation."
Xiao Wu instantly slapped his hand away and leaned closer to Sun Sheng's side.
Seeing this, Sun Sheng's pupils flashed with a sharp glint as he gently patted her back and comforted her in a soothing tone, "Be good, Xiao Wu. We won't cry. It's all Tang San's fault; we'll never pay him any mind again, all right?"
Seeing Sun Sheng push his luck further and further, Tang San flew into a violent rage on the spot and lashed out with a direct palm strike, "Sun Sheng, take your filthy hands off my Xiao Wu!"
Seeing Tang San make a move, Sun Sheng reacted instantly. He surged upright and struck back with a fist, "Get lost, you pathetic loser!"
Bang!
Fist and palm met, and Tang San was blasted flying on the spot.
"Th-Third Brother!"
Seeing Tang San sent flying, Xiao Wu stopped crying and looked over with a hint of worry.
"Sun Sheng, you go too far!"
Dai Mubai, standing not far away, could not stand it any longer. With Martial Soul Possession activated, he employed his first and third spirit skills and charged fiercely toward Sun Sheng.
"Scram!"
Sun Sheng narrowed his eyes, stepped forward, and countered with a punch.
With that, Dai Mubai was sent flying backward.
"Nether Hundred Claws!"
"Phoenix Fire Line!"
At that very moment, Zhu Zhuqing and Ma Hongjun also made their moves.
Without needing to guess, the scene just now made it obvious.
The reason Xiao Wu was so heartbroken was definitely because of some trick he pulled.
Humph!
Sun Sheng let out a cold snort. Relying on his powerful physique, he made an extremely fast reaction and threw out two consecutive punches, forcing Zhu Zhuqing and Ma Hongjun to retreat.
So strong!
Meng Yiran, along with the Dragon Duke and Snake Granny not far away, were filled with shock upon witnessing Sun Sheng's formidable strength.
This brat had actually defeated geniuses like Tang San and Dai Mubai in a short span of time without even utilizing his martial soul.
Such strength was utterly shocking to the world.
"All of you stand aside. This is between him and me."
Tang San utilized a clever method to discharge the lingering force on his body and landed steadily.
He shouted directly, telling everyone not to meddle.
First, Sun Sheng's strength was immense, and with the combat power of Dai Mubai and the others, stepping up was simply asking for abuse.
Second, this was a grievance between him and Sun Sheng, and he permitted no one else to interfere.
Otherwise, even if he won, his victory would be unearned.
It was the first time Dai Mubai and the others had ever seen Tang San this angry, and for a moment they stood frozen in place.
Right now, a mysterious yet powerful aura was emanating from Tang San's body.
His hands were as white as jade, emitting a faint, chilling frost.
His pupils were a deep, glowing purple, as though they could pierce through everything.
Seeing this, Sun Sheng's pupils constricted.
He knew that Tang San was about to use his Tang Sect Skills.
Next, he had to constantly guard against powerful hidden weapons while also staying alert to other formidable methods.
Pressured by the circumstances, Sun Sheng decisively summoned the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
Those two spirit rings—one white and one purple—flickered continuously, releasing a dazzling radiance.
Especially the Million-Year Spirit Ring, which grew increasingly bright and profound.
When Meng Yiran, the Dragon Duke, and Snake Granny beheld his spirit ring configuration, their faces were etched with absolute shock, sinking into a daze from which they could not recover for a long time.
Such a leap, such talent—it was simply too terrifying!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Tang San took the initiative, pushing Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to its absolute limit as he transformed into blurred afterimages, launching a surprise assault from all directions.
In his hands, a series of fine needles flashing with chilling cold light suddenly emerged.
"Tang San, you're finally getting serious."
"Today, I'll let you see that in the face of absolute strength, all hidden weapons and all methods are nothingness."
Not daring to underestimate Tang San's six great Tang Sect skills, Sun Sheng rapidly circulated the Grand Celestial Art, infinitely enhancing his body's sensory awareness until he gradually established a close connection with the surrounding environment, turning it to his own use.
Such was the marvelous utility of the Grand Celestial Art.
Yet the very instant Sun Sheng spoke, Tang San seized the opportunity and utilized various clever techniques to fling the fine needles in his hand.
In an instant, a sky full of fine needles surrounded Sun Sheng tightly, leaving not a single gap and completely blocking his path of retreat.
Possessing high cultivation, Zhao Wuji and the Dragon Lord felt a slight shock upon witnessing Tang San's method.
Neither of them had expected that Tang San's mastery in employing hidden weapons would reach such a transcendent and masterful level.
