Tang Hao had done it all for a soul beast!
"Mother... Mother, she..."
Tang San felt as if five bolts of lightning had struck him. His body swayed violently, and his face turned as pale as paper.
He suddenly looked toward his father, Tang Hao, his eyes filled with a desperate plea for denial.
His father had never told him. Tang San had never imagined it.
His mother had actually been a soul beast!
In other words, Tang San himself was a bastard?
Xiao Wu had been clinging tightly to Tang San's side, trembling from grief and fear.
When Ah Yin erupted with that vast aura of soul beast origin in the image—
Especially the instant that Hundred-Thousand-Year soul ring appeared, her delicate body suddenly stiffened!
An uncontrollable aura of panic, born from recognizing one of her own kind—
Like floodwaters breaking through a dam, it instantly leaked from her body!
"Hmm?"
Ye Xian, seated high upon the throne, instantly locked his ice-blue eyes onto Xiao Wu!
A cruel smile curled across his lips.
At the same time, the pure and powerful life aura unique to a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, a Soft Bone Rabbit—
Could no longer be concealed.
Like a beacon in the night, it was clearly exposed before every keenly perceptive expert on Soul Severing Slope!
"Heh..."
Ye Xian let out an icy sneer, like the whisper of the god of death.
He slowly raised his right index finger, dark blue light flowing around its tip.
It pointed with flawless precision at Xiao Wu, who had frozen in place the instant her aura was exposed.
The color had drained completely from her pretty face, and her eyes were filled with utter terror!
His cold voice was like a blade forged from Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice.
Word by word, it pierced the deathly silent air—and shattered the last shred of hope held by Shrek's group.
"Everyone, look. There's another one here."
"A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form—a Soft Bone Rabbit. Xiao Wu!"
Boom—!
Ye Xian's words were like a chunk of Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice thrown into boiling oil, instantly detonating the silent Soul Severing Slope!
Everyone's gazes, like countless scorching beams of light—
Filled with indescribable shock, all focused on the pink-clad girl standing rigidly beside Tang San.
Her pretty face was pale as paper, and her delicate body trembled uncontrollably with fear!
A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form!
A Soft Bone Rabbit!
Xiao Wu!
Those words combined were like thunder exploding deep within everyone's souls!
Ning Fengzhi's gentle pupils abruptly contracted, and the glow of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda froze in an instant.
Behind him, Sword Douluo Chen Xin's Seven Kill Sword let out a clear, piercing hum in his arms.
Unparalleled sword energy spread out uncontrollably.
For the first time, his eyes, which seemed to see through all worldly affairs, revealed undisguised shock and a hint of icy sharpness.
A soul beast taking human form—especially a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast taking human form—
Was an ultimate temptation no soul master could resist.
That was a Hundred-Thousand-Year soul ring! A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone!
Yu Yuanzhen's enormous Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon avatar shuddered violently.
The dragon head covered in deep-blue scales abruptly turned toward Xiao Wu.
Within its violet-gold vertical pupils, the thunderstorm of rage over his daughter's death and Tang Hao—
Was instantly replaced by something more naked, more primal: greed and killing intent.
A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!
If they could hunt it down... the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would possess the foundation to contend against anything.
But those were only their thoughts.
After all, Tang Hao was still here, and they were still allies.
With Ye Xian, their greatest enemy, right before them, they could not truly make a move.
Tang Hao's bloodshot eyes swept over Xiao Wu.
Then they snapped toward Ye Xian as he let out a beastlike roar.
"Ye Xian—! How dare you!!"
The murderous aura of the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand surged as he was about to charge forward without regard for anything.
But Fourth Elder Tang Xun, equally shocked yet far more wary, grabbed him tightly from beside him.
Tang Xun's gaze also swept over Xiao Wu, filled with complicated emotions.
The pain of the Clear Sky Sect's destruction had always been inseparable from soul beasts.
Tang Hao's lover was a soul beast.
And the Tang San she gave birth to—his partner was also a soul beast.
What a curse!
Meanwhile, the Shrek group had completely fallen into immense confusion and an unbelievable shockwave.
Dai Mubai's entire body stiffened, and the aura of his White Tiger martial soul fluctuated violently.
He looked at Xiao Wu, then at Ah Yin sacrificing herself within the light screen.
Then he looked at Tang San beside him, who seemed on the verge of madness.
He only felt a chill shoot from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head.
The lively, adorable Xiao Wu, whom they had spent every day with... was actually a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form?!
For the first time, intense turmoil appeared in Zhu Zhuqing's cold catlike eyes.
The phantom of the Hell Spirit Cat flickered uneasily behind her.
She had been closest to Xiao Wu, yet at this moment, she felt only utter unfamiliarity and a trace of the coldness of betrayal.
The Recovery Great Sausage in Oscar's hand fell to the ground.
His mouth hung wide enough to fit an egg, and his face was written with, "This is impossible."
Even the evil fire on Ma Hongjun's body seemed to have been suppressed by the enormous fright.
The fat on his chubby face quivered as he looked at Xiao Wu.
Then at the enormous light screen in the sky, his mind utterly blank.
Behind Flender's shattered lenses, his old eyes were wide open.
His lips trembled, but he could not utter a single word.
Zhao Wuji viciously slammed a fist into his thigh, producing a dull thud.
His tiger eyes held immense shock and the helplessness of being swept into a monstrous vortex.
"Xiao Wu, don't be afraid. Your brother is here!"
Tang San's voice was dry and hoarse.
He abruptly turned his head toward the girl who was familiar to him down to his bones.
Xiao Wu's face was pale, and her body shook like a fallen leaf in the wind.
Those large eyes, always so lively and sly, now held nothing but endless fear and despair.
Tang San hurriedly rushed over and pulled her into his arms.
He had already guessed Xiao Wu's identity as a soul beast.
Even if Ye Xian exposed her before everyone today, he could never abandon Xiao Wu.
"Th... Third Brother..."
Xiao Wu's voice carried a sob, filled with helplessness and pleading.
Instinctively, she reached for Tang San's arm, seeking her last support.
"No... no..."
Xiao Wu shook her head fiercely, crystal tears rolling down like beads from a snapped string.
She wanted to explain, to tell Tang San that she had not deliberately concealed it from him.
She only... only wanted to be with him...
But the countless gazes around her, staring at her like prey—
Choked every word in her throat, leaving behind only soundless sobs and bone-deep, icy terror.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk."
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan's effeminate voice rang out, carrying undisguised greed and excitement.
He licked his lips, his gaze slithering over Xiao Wu like Poison Serpent's.
"A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit... we searched everywhere for it, only for it to fall right into our laps!"
"Your Excellency, this is a treasure bestowed by heaven!"
Ye Xian sat high upon the Frost King Throne, like a deity in control of all things.
He admired the spectacle below, the lives he had utterly overturned with only a few words.
His gaze swept over the Shrek group, who had fallen into tremendous chaos after Xiao Wu's identity was exposed.
Finally, it settled on Tang Hao, whose eyes were practically splitting with rage but who was still being held tightly by Tang Xun.
"Tang Hao!"
Ye Xian's icy voice rang out once more, like a final judgment.
"Do you see it? This is your fate, and your son's fate as well."
"You betrayed your sect for a soul beast, bringing a catastrophic disaster upon the Clear Sky Sect!"
"And now, your son is entangled with another Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form..."
