Assassination Attempt by Tang Hao

Rewind to a few months ago, the moment Zhou Huan opened the entrance to Dragon Valley, a burly figure flashed out from the depths of Haotian Fort and arrived at the Haotian Hall.

At this moment, in the main hall, only the Green Sky Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, who had been disguised as Niu Tian and Tai Tan, were drinking and chatting, living a life completely different from that of Soul Beast ten thousand years ago.

Or rather, they are no longer considered Soul Beast. Even without God Position, they are still God Official, god-level beings.

The moment they saw the burly man appear, both Niu Tian Tai Tan's pupils contracted, Tai Tan, who was already somewhat drunk, instantly sobered up.

Niu Tian was the first to speak, "Why did you come out?"

His tone was unhurried and rather indifferent; it wasn't exactly friendly, but it wasn't hostile either.

The burly man replied expressionlessly, "I've just found the person I needed to find and came to let you know that I'll be leaving Douluo Continent for the time being. I'm entrusting Xiao Qi to your care."

Having said that, without waiting for Niu Tian Tai Tan's response, he vanished from Haotian Fort in a flash.

Upon seeing this, Tai Tan said with displeasure, "Who does he think he is? If it were before, I could have slapped him to death! He even told us to take care of Xiao Qi, as if he'd ever done it himself! Pah!"

Niu Tian's expression was also grim, but unlike Tai Tan, he wasn't brainless. He glared at Tai Tan and said, "Alright, we won't interfere in Xiao Qi and Sister Xiao Wu's affairs."

Mentioning Xiao Qi only fueled Tai Tan's anger. He said coldly, "Hmph! If they hadn't kept it from us and Sister Xiao Wu, I would never have let them..."

However, before Tai Tan could finish speaking, Niu Tian interrupted him directly, "Enough! What's the point of talking about this now! Can you even beat them or what?"

Upon hearing this, Tai Tan was speechless. "I..."

After a long silence, Tai Tan finally said indignantly, "Brother, we shouldn't have saved him in the first place. If we had just let him die in the Star Dou Great Forest, none of this would have happened! Ten thousand years have passed, and this one from underground suddenly comes out. It can't be anything good. Who knows what disgusting things they're up to this time!"

Niu Tian: "..." He had long known that humans are always fickle, especially when faced with something as tempting as divine authority. Who could always maintain their original intentions?

Or perhaps, that Mr. Tang was always like that, but they and Sister Xiao Wu all misjudged him.

But now everything is irreversible. What trouble can those two mere tenth-rank God Official possibly cause?

Besides, they and Sister Xiao Wu are living quite well now, so there's no need to worry about their time running out. Therefore, the Green Sky Bull Python has long since stopped thinking about it.

It doesn't seem so bad to just live like this, since neither he nor Tai Tan cares about any "grand plans" the father and son have.

I just hope that this person, who has been silent for ten thousand years, won't do anything crazy as soon as he comes out.

Time: Now.

Location: On a cliff in an unnamed new continent.

Looking at the enormous Clear Sky Hammer overhead, crackling with countless red lightning bolts, Zhou Huan felt an icy chill in his heart, and a surge of rage rose straight to the top of his head!

He didn't know why he was being noticed, nor why he had attracted the attention of the Clear Sky Hammer, but he knew that the power of a god or higher was something no ordinary person could withstand.

Fortunately, Zhou Huan realized immediately that the Clear Sky Hammer, filled with murderous intent, was only targeting him.

Therefore, the first thing he did was to get Zhang Lexuan and the other six people out of the range of the Clear Sky Hammer's attack.

There's no way he can escape!

They had no choice but to face the Clear Sky Hammer's attack head-on; otherwise, Zhou Huan wasn't sure if this sudden, murderous Clear Sky Hammer would strike Zhang Lexuan and the others.

Zhou Huan didn't need to worry about Wang Qingya, but Xiao Xiao and the others were really in a situation where they would die if they were near her.

Therefore, Zhou Huan had no choice. He didn't even dare to leave Zhang Lexuan behind to use the Martial Soul Fusion Skill with him, because if he was not careful, he would die with Zhang Lexuan.

This is absolutely unacceptable to Zhou Huan!

But Zhou Huan was never one to stand still and wait to die, even though he hadn't even seen the enemy, only a Clear Sky Hammer falling from the sky.

So, after seeing Zhang Lexuan and the others off, Zhou Huan instantly activated his Martial Soul Avatar, and a ten-meter- Ice Giant suddenly appeared.

However, Zhou Huan did not immediately continue to use his Soul Skill. Instead, he punched the Nine-Colored Ball in his hand towards the Clear Sky Hammer that was falling straight down.

This was a gift from Ling Suzhen when he participated in the Soul Master Competition in Mingdu.

According to the Pagoda Soul Sprite, this Nine-Colored Ball can withstand three strikes from Limit Douluo.

Therefore, the Nine-Colored Ball was naturally unable to withstand the power of a god.

But what Zhou Huan needed was not for the Nine-Colored Ball to be able to block the Clear Sky Hammer, but for the Clear Sky Hammer to destroy the Nine-Colored Ball, so as to send a message to the two big shots, Ling Suzhen and Wang Tizhou.

The next instant, just as Zhou Huan had predicted, when the Nine-Colored Ball touched the Clear Sky Hammer, a loud "boom" was heard, and nine-colored light was emitted at the same time.

At this moment, a burly figure seemed to appear faintly above the Clear Sky Hammer, pausing slightly upon seeing the nine-colored light.

But in less than 0.1 seconds, the burly figure no longer hesitated, gripping the Clear Sky Hammer and smashing it down on Zhou Huan with even greater divine power.

At this moment, Zhou Huan, who had already transformed into Ice Giant, suddenly emitted a dazzling golden-red light from his ninth Soul Ring!

Ninth Soul Skill - Ice God Descent activated!

This is Zhou Huan's strongest Soul Skill. He had never dared to use it before in order not to attract the attention of the Douluo God Realm, because he was worried that there really was an Ice God in the Divine Realm.

But faced with the devastating power of the Clear Sky Hammer, Zhou Huan had no choice but to use it as well.

The moment the Ice God Descent activated, the Ice Giant's strength increased at least tenfold.

Not only that, Zhou Huan even felt like he was the Ice God at this moment. Without any hesitation, his Titan Snow Demon Fist, a hundred times stronger, clashed with the Red Thunder Clear Sky Hammer, which was a full hundred meters wide, in the blink of an eye!

"BOOM--!!"

The ice and the crimson lightning collided!

In an instant, shards of ice scattered everywhere, and crimson lightning raged!

However, a god-level being is still a god-level being. Even with Zhou Huan using his ninth Soul Skill, he could only block the Clear Sky Hammer for 0.1 seconds.

Then, the remaining power of the Clear Sky Hammer was used to smash into the Ice Giant!

"Bang--!!"

The Ice Giant immediately developed cracks, and Zhou Huan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

But the burly figure high in the sky clearly wouldn't stop; he raised the Clear Sky Hammer once more, and this time the entire sky was filled with red lightning.

The next instant, the Clear Sky Hammer slammed down again--

Zhou Huan had no choice; the Floating Pagoda instantly appeared, blocking his path.

"Boom!!"

Another loud bang, but this time the Floating Pagoda blocked the Clear Sky Hammer for 0.2 seconds.

However, that's all there is to it.

It's not that the Floating Pagoda isn't strong, but rather that Zhou Huan is only a Level 98 Peak Super Douluo, and simply cannot unleash the full power of the Floating Pagoda.

But Zhou Huan still managed a slight smile, because he sensed that Wang Tizhou and Ling Suzhen had arrived.

0.3 seconds, it only blocked it for 0.3 seconds.

The Ice True Body combined with the Ninth Soul Skill blocked the Clear Sky Hammer for 0.1 seconds, while the Floating Pagoda blocked it for 0.2 seconds.

But that's enough.

"Stop!"

"Stop!"

Two voices, one male and one female, rang out simultaneously.

Just when Zhou Huan thought he was saved, the burly figure in the sky suddenly shot out a long, golden-blue spear, aiming straight for Zhou Huan!

Zhou Huan's first thought was, there's no escaping it!

My second thought was, I'll die!

Because the spear was right in front of them, and although Ling Suzhen and Wang Tizhou's voices could be heard, they hadn't actually arrived yet.

Even if it were a normal god-level spear attack, Zhou Huan could still be saved out of thin air even before Ling Suzhen and Wang Tizhou arrived.

But it's clear that the speed and power of this gold and blue spear are far superior to the Clear Sky Hammer from before.

The key point is that Zhou Huan recognized what the gold and blue spear was.

That's -- the Blue! Silver! Overlord! Spear!

The question is: who, or even a god, could save him from the Blue Silver Overlord Spear at this moment?

The answer is: No.

Zhou Huan could never have imagined that anyone else could save him in time.
