Background / History
Tang Hao appears after Tang San’s first defeat by Su Ze at Nuoding Academy. Rather than retaliate directly, he tells Yu Xiaogang to treat Su Ze as Tang San’s “whetstone,” then leaves Tang San in Yu Xiaogang’s care. He believes Tang San’s Twin Martial Souls and Clear Sky Hammer will ultimately surpass Su Ze. 13
When Tang San begins doubting Blue Silver Grass, Tang Hao harshly reprimands him for scorning the Martial Soul left by Ah Yin. He reveals that Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass has a special bloodline capable of evolving into the Blue Silver Emperor. After the Blue Silver King wounds Tang San, Tang Hao kills it and attempts to save his son through Ah Yin’s soul bone and the Blue Silver King’s bloodline. 52 57
Tang Hao’s hostility toward Su Ze escalates during the All Continent Elite Competition. Hidden among the spectators, he decides Su Ze must be eliminated after witnessing his strength. When Su Ze defeats and humiliates Tang San, leaving his Blue Silver Grass destroyed and Clear Sky Hammer cracked, Tang Hao attacks Su Ze with the Clear Sky True Body and an enormous Clear Sky Hammer. Di Tian’s intervention prevents the killing blow and enables Su Ze’s escape. 54 61
Pursued by Spirit Hall after the attack, Tang Hao suffers catastrophic injuries during his escape: both arms are severed, his lower body is crippled, and his Soul Power falls drastically. Unable to pursue revenge personally, he makes Tang San his sole hope for vengeance against Spirit Hall and Su Ze, teaching him the Chaotic Hammer Cape Style and seeking ways to strengthen him. 70 71
Tang Hao later reveals an Evil Soul Master method for devouring other Soul Masters’ life and Soul Power to Tang San, explicitly invoking revenge against Su Ze to push his son toward accepting it. When Tang San’s killing intent becomes unstable, Tang Hao brings him to Tang Yuehua and asks her to teach Tang San the Mind Method, control his killing intent, and return him to the Clear Sky Sect. 92 107
After Ah Yin’s complete submission to Su Ze, Tang Hao attacks the Blue Silver Great Forest in rage. He is eventually captured by Ah Yin; his final message to Tang San urges revenge while warning him not to harm her. 81 140
Appearance
Tang Hao is initially portrayed as a black-clothed man whose arrival overwhelms Tang San and Yu Xiaogang. After his flight from Spirit Hall, he is severely disfigured and maimed. 52 70

- Following his escape, his arms are completely severed and blood tears stream from his eyes. 70

Personality
Tang Hao is driven primarily by vengeance. His hatred of Spirit Hall originates in Ah Yin’s fate, but Su Ze becomes an equally central target after defeating Tang San, absorbing Ah Yin’s soul bone, and disrupting Tang Hao’s plans for his son. 61 62 70
His paternal concern is intense but often ruthless. He sees Tang San’s Twin Martial Souls as the foundation of future revenge, prioritizes Tang San’s growth above morality, and supports increasingly dangerous methods when conventional cultivation fails. 57 70 92
Despite his anger and obsession, Tang Hao retains shame and attachment toward the Clear Sky Sect. He admits to Tang Yuehua that he has let the sect down and seeks Tang San’s return to the clan as one of the last things he can accomplish. 107
