"Yes!"
Everyone answered in unison, the atmosphere grim and murderous.
"Tang Hao's strength has increased drastically. The Heaven Dou Allied Army's morale will surely soar to unprecedented heights."
Ghost Douluo said in a low voice.
"This time, the Shrek Seven Devils will likely come out in full force. The final battle may arrive ahead of schedule."
Chrysanthemum Douluo frowned deeply.
"With the Young Master here, there should be no cause for concern. We only need to watch out for Tang San..."
Ghost Douluo took over, his voice beneath the mask carrying a trace of apprehension.
"That kid may have become a God, but he is cruel and specializes in sneak attacks. We must be on guard."
He would never forget that back in the Star Dou Great Forest, had a Mysterious Person not intervened to save him, he would have long since died to Tang San's sneak attack.
The same had happened before Jialing Pass.
Deep down, he had a vague suspicion that the person who had saved him might have been the Young Master's husband, Lord Tang Chen, the unfathomable man.
Seeing the earth-shaking reward in the sky, all the Spirit Hall experts present fell silent.
Jialing Pass, atop the city wall.
Qian Renxue stood against the fierce wind in a long golden dress, her exquisite face solemn.
Her straight, slender legs were wrapped in golden armor that outlined breathtaking curves, yet no one dared take a second glance.
Everyone's gaze was focused on her golden eyes, which were likewise fixed upon the sky.
"This is only thirteenth place, yet the reward is already so terrifying."
Qian Renxue whispered to herself.
"Then what will those ranked higher receive...?"
For the first time, a trace of urgency arose in her heart.
If she made the ranking, what kind of reward would she receive?
Power beyond that of a God?
What worried her more was her fated enemy, Tang San.
He might be Golden Ranking First Place!
Meanwhile, the Heaven Dou Allied Army camp had already erupted in cheers, their morale greatly boosted!
"Clear Sky Douluo is mighty!"
"We will surely win this battle! Spirit Hall will perish!"
The Shrek Members were even more excited.
"Hahaha! Great! Let's see how Spirit Hall can keep acting arrogant now!" Ma Hongjun shouted excitedly.
Dai Mubai was equally brimming with battle intent. "All troops, attack! In this battle, we will flatten Jialing Pass in one stroke and destroy Spirit Hall!"
Tang San held the Sea God Trident and stepped forward. Divine Power surged around him, and his voice rolled like thunder, resounding across the entire battlefield.
"Qian Renxue! Get out of the city and accept your death!"
"My father has received a Heavenly Dao divine reward. You fools trying to block us are merely courting death!"
On the city wall, Qian Renxue's golden eyes showed not the slightest ripple at his words.
She merely replied calmly.
"If you wish to fight, then fight."
High in the sky, Tang Hao sensed the earth-shaking changes inside his body and was overwhelmed by ecstasy and excitement.
The colors of his nine Spirit Rings were deepening at a visible rate, while an immense Sense of Power filled every limb and bone.
The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand had turned entirely Dark Gold, covered in profound divine patterns as though it contained the power to split open heaven and earth.
He could feel that he was only one step away from the legendary Level 99!
"Hahaha... Hahahaha!"
Tang Hao let out a Long Howl Towards the Sky, his voice shaking the clouds.
This was the power of the Heavenly Dao!
He thought of Ah Yin.
Back then, he had plotted painstakingly for so long and risked being hunted by Spirit Hall just to obtain a 100,000-year Soul Ring and a Spirit Bone from her.
But now?
The Heavenly Dao Golden Ranking's reward surpassed a hundred Ah Yins!
A smug expression appeared on Tang Hao's face.
Ah Yin, if you could see this, you would definitely regret it, wouldn't you?
You would definitely come crying back to beg me and admit your mistake, wouldn't you?
And that Mysterious Person who took her away!
Killing intent soared in Tang Hao's eyes.
Once I completely absorb this power, I will tear you into ten thousand pieces and let you know who the true ruler of this continent is!
At that moment, his confidence was overflowing. He felt that beneath the Gods, he was already invincible!
However.
Just then.
A terrifying aura that seemed to suffocate all things between heaven and earth descended silently.
The ecstasy and excitement froze on Tang Hao's face.
It was as if an invisible hand had clutched his throat, abruptly cutting off the laughter that had just shaken the clouds.
The Soul Power within him, the strength that had just soared due to the Heavenly Dao Reward, now cowered like a docile lamb, trembling in fear.
This was absolute suppression originating from the very level of life itself!
Tang Hao stiffly turned his head and looked toward the source of that aura.
After only one glance, his pupils contracted into needle points.
Above the Clouds, a tall figure stood quietly. His white robes were like snow, his black hair drifted in the wind, and his face was obscured by a faint mist, making it impossible to see clearly. Yet his transcendent bearing, detached from the world, made others unable to look directly at him.
What shattered Tang Hao's mind even more was the woman standing quietly beside that man.
She wore a long blue dress, her beauty unparalleled, her temperament gentle yet carrying a trace of distance.
"Ah... Ah Yin?!"
Tang Hao's voice trembled.
He understood instantly.
This Mysterious Person before him was the one who had taken Ah Yin from his hands back then!
Boundless fury and jealousy erupted from the depths of his heart like a volcano, instantly drowning out his reason.
"It was you!"
Tang Hao roared as the Sky-Piercing Divine Hammer he had just obtained suddenly appeared, its Dark Gold light tearing through the sky.
"You took my Ah Yin!"
"Give her back to me!"
Facing Tang Hao's roar, the white-clothed figure, Tang Chen, merely glanced at him indifferently.
No words, no movement.
Just one look.
"Pfft—"
Tang Hao seemed to have been struck by lightning. His entire body shook violently as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
He felt his soul trembling. The Soul Power he had just raised to the peak of Level 97, even touching the threshold of Level 98, was as fragile as paper before that single glance.
The light on the Sky-Piercing Divine Hammer instantly dimmed. He fell dozens of meters from the sky before barely steadying himself.
Tang Hao stared at Tang Chen in horror, the cold water of reality completely extinguishing the arrogance in his heart.
How was this possible?!
He had received a Heavenly Dao divine reward, and his strength had soared. He had even been confident of fighting Level 98 Golden Crocodile Douluo, yet before this man, he could not even withstand a single glance!
What kind of terrifying strength was this?!
At that moment, a cold and aloof voice rang out.
"Tang Hao."
The one who spoke was Ah Yin.
Tang Hao's entire body jolted. He abruptly raised his head to look at her, his face filled with shock.
"You... you can speak?!"
He remembered clearly that after Ah Yin sacrificed herself and became Blue Silver Grass, she had lost the ability to speak!
Yet now, she had not only regained her Human Form, but could even speak!
All of this had to be connected to the man beside her!
Tang Hao's gaze shifted to Tang Chen once again, filled with uncertainty and alarm.
"Who exactly are you?!"
Ah Yin ignored his shock and merely watched him with a gaze so calm that it caused Heart Palpitation.
"I'm asking you, where is our child?"
"Did you abandon him back then?"
