Playing the Pig to Eat the Tiger, Tang Hao? Also Beaten!

"Hmm? That kid's aura just disappeared. What's going on?" Tang Hao frowned slightly.

This felt extremely strange to him. Let alone hiding in a house, no matter where within a radius of several hundred meters, it was impossible to escape his perception.

And yet, a six-year-old child had just vanished from within his range of perception.

There was only one explanation: the other party had hidden his aura. But how could a six-year-old child possibly do that?

Just then, Tang Hao saw Ye Wen, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King in his Semi-human Form, walking out of the restaurant hand-in-hand with the Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai.

"Could it be him?" Tang Hao stared at Ye Wen, whose appearance was obscured by a blue robe. The only explanation he could think of was that this man in blue had used some method to hide Ye Wen's aura.

"Forget it. I'll teach them a lesson first, and then I'll deal with that kid later." Tang Hao's face turned cold. "How dare they hit my son, Tang Hao. No matter who it is, today, I'll still hammer them."

Beneath the blue robe, a cold smile appeared on Ye Wen's face. He had already sensed Tang Hao's presence with his spiritual power. It really was this guy!

"Heh, Tang Hao, it really is you!"

"Interesting. Then today, let me experience the power of your Clear Sky Hammer."

As long as Sea Soul Beasts in their semi-human form concealed their appearance, they wouldn't be recognized as their true form by Titled Douluo-level powerhouses.

This was because the temporary transformation of Sea Soul Beasts was still a transformation!

When Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts transformed and reached level 60, their aura was almost completely concealed. Even powerhouses at the Titled Douluo level couldn't tell. (I forgot if it was level 60 or 70 that they couldn't be detected. If anyone knows, please let me know, and I'll correct it immediately.)

After a Sea Soul Beast's temporary transformation, their strength was retained. Although their power was reduced by 30%, their own energy had long surpassed level 60, completely masking their Soul Beast aura.

The only way to tell was that Sea Soul Beasts in temporary transformation didn't look exactly like humans. (I'll make a slight adjustment to the setting here. Strictly speaking, it's not really changing the setting, as the original work didn't specify whether Titled Douluo could detect the aura of Sea Soul Beasts without looking at their appearance.)

Furthermore, in everyone's perception, Soul Beasts that transformed could never revert to their original form. Therefore, Tang Hao would never associate the semi-human form with the human form as being the same person.

Tang Hao would only assume that the semi-human form was a powerhouse behind Ye Wen, or perhaps a father figure.

Whoosh!

Ye Wen suddenly accelerated, pulling the Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai as they ran.

"Heh," Tang Hao chuckled coldly and pursued them closely.

Soon, Ye Wen led Tang Hao into a secluded grove within Nuoding City. Before he could stop, Tang Hao blocked his path.

"Stop," Tang Hao said domineeringly.

"Heh heh, it's time to show off my superb acting skills honed over the years." Ye Wen's lips curved into an imperceptible smile. The next second, his expression instantly shifted to one of panic and fear. "Who... who are you? What do you want? Why are you following us here?"

"You don't need to know who I am. You just need to know that you're about to suffer physical pain!"

Tang Hao was incredibly imposing and arrogant. He walked forward step by step, a powerful aura emanating from his body.

Tang Hao guessed that the person in front of him, who could hide a child's aura, probably had some strength. But in his eyes, they were just someone who couldn't withstand a few of his hammer strikes.

"Wait! Sir, don't attack. Let's talk properly!" Ye Wen's voice was filled with fear.

Sensing the fear emanating from Ye Wen's emotions, Tang Hao became even more disdainful. He said domineeringly, "Talk my ass! Come here! Get beaten!"

"No! No! Sir!"

"Heh."

Tang Hao unleashed a powerful punch. Just as his fist was about to hit Ye Wen's stomach, just as he thought he could make the kid vomit blood with one punch—

An incredibly terrifying aura and power suddenly surged from Ye Wen's body. The fear on his face vanished instantly, replaced by a smile.

"How is this possible! This guy, he actually..."

Now, it was Tang Hao who was terrified. A look of horror appeared on his face!

"Get beaten? You're the one who's going to get beaten."

Ye Wen gathered terrifying energy and threw a punch, smashing it fiercely into Tang Hao's face.

"Get lost!!"

Bang! Boom boom boom!

"Ughhh!!!"

Tang Hao let out an incredibly tragic scream. His body shot backward like a rocket, flying several hundred meters in an instant.

Bang! Bang bang bang!

His body slammed into several large trees consecutively before crashing to the ground.

Tang Hao was stunned. In his imagination, shouldn't Ye Wen be the one sent flying with a single punch? How did it become him?

"I told you we could talk properly, but you insisted on fighting. Are you dazed now?"

Looking at the person who was about to attack him, Tang Hao had lost all his domineering and arrogant demeanor. There was only deep apprehension, as he could feel the dense energy emanating from Ye Wen, indicating a terrifying level above his own!

"Haa!"

Tang Hao quickly released his Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul, and nine Soul Rings emerged.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Clear Sky True Body!"

A giant humanoid phantom, wielding a massive Clear Sky Hammer, appeared behind Tang Hao.

The Clear Sky Hammer was known for its dominance, hailed as the number one weapon-type Martial Soul in the world. In terms of dominance, power, and burst, it was indeed the strongest in the current Soul Master world. Tang Hao himself was also a person full of imposing presence.

After releasing his Martial Soul True Body, an overbearing aura enveloped the entire venue.

"Fourth Soul Skill, Sky-Piercing Strike!"

Tang Hao, with an incredibly terrifying power, swung his hammer down.

Although he was only level 95, even a Titled Douluo at level 97 would not want to clash head-on with Tang Hao.

"Not bad, Tang Hao, as expected of Tang Hao! But unfortunately, before me, you are just a weakling!" Ye Wen stood in place, his back straight, arms crossed.

He admitted Tang Hao was strong, but he was far from comparable to the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's power.

The next second, a hammer also appeared in his hands.

Ye Wen held the Eight-Edged Plum Blossom Hammer and had no intention of dodging, striking head-on with his hammer.

Bang! Boom boom boom!

The Clear Sky Hammer and the Eight-Edged Plum Blossom Hammer collided head-on.

Terrifying energy scattered like an explosion, kicking up a gust of wind. The trees in the entire forest shook, and the ground seemed to tremble.

The power of both was exceptionally terrifying.

But in just a few seconds, Tang Hao's power was instantly surpassed by Ye Wen.

Overbearing!? The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's nearly million-year cultivation energy foundation was the true overbearing power!

Boom boom!

Tang Hao was sent flying by Ye Wen again. Ye Wen immediately charged forward, arriving above Tang Hao while his body was still in mid-air.

"Where did that overbearing and arrogant aura of yours go just now? Be more arrogant for me!"

Ye Wen slammed his hammer down fiercely again.

Bang!

Pfft!

"Ahhhhhh!"
