Tang San nodded, then looked at Xiao Wu in front of him. Just as he was about to say something, he collapsed to the ground in excruciating pain, as if his soul had been ripped out.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu immediately asked worriedly, "Third Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Tang San's face flushed red, the veins on his arms bulged, and even his breathing became extremely rapid, as if this had been going on for a long time.
Ever since his last trip to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Lin Yuan had left energy inside his body, causing him to suffer from the pain of being pierced by a thousand arrows every day, making him wish he were dead.
Although Tang San had sought Dugu Bo to break the seal, Dugu Bo was still helpless against Lin Yuan's restriction. After all, Titled Douluo powerhouse of that level was simply beyond his ability to contend with.
This is why Tang San was unable to unleash the energy within his body, and could only endure the stinging pain caused by the energy eroding his internal organs every day, driving Tang San to complete madness.
Xiao Wu gently bit her lower lip, looking helplessly at Tang San was in unbearable pain. After all, she was just a dispensable maid in Lin Yuan's eyes.
If Ye Lingling hadn't been too young to absorb Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, I probably would have already become her Soul Ring Ye Lingling now.
After an unknown amount of time, Tang San's pain gradually disappeared, and he collapsed to the ground like a stray dog, panting heavily.
Meanwhile, Tang San's clothes were already soaked with sweat, and his breathing was more rapid than before, as if he had a feeling that he was about to die.
Xiao Wu walked over with a worried expression. Just as she was about to help Tang San up, she realized that the sun was about to set. If she didn't go back soon, she would definitely be punished by His Lord Lin Yuan.
"I'm sorry, Third Brother, I have to go..."
Xiao Wu pursed her lips, her eyes filled with tears as she gazed at Tang San's position, and said in a choked voice, "I'll come see you again when I have time. Take care."
Tang San struggled to his feet, trying to stop Xiao Wu from going back. "Xiao Wu, I'll take you away from here. We'll go back to Holy Spirit Village, where no one can find us... and no one can interfere with our lives."
"Come with me..."
Facing Tang San's affectionate eyes, Xiao Wu really wanted to agree, but she knew Lord Lin Yuan's personality better than anyone else.
If he finds out that she left the Heaven Dou Empire, she will never have a peaceful life again.
Xiao Wu bit her lower lip, forcefully shaking off Tang San's arm, and said, "Brother, you focus on your cultivation. I'll be waiting for you at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy..."
After saying this, Xiao Wu turned and left the room without hesitation, running quickly towards the Heaven Dou Royal Academy while trying her best not to let her tears fall.
Tang San's eyes were bloodshot as he watched Xiao Wu's departing figure, and he roared hoarsely, "Lin Yuan! I, Tang San, swear that one day I will make you pay a terrible price for what you've done!!"
As Xiao Wu walked down the streets of Heaven Dou City after leaving Shrek Academy, she was filled with worry and longed for the freedom she once had. But she also knew in her heart that she was no longer the Xiao Wu she used to be.
The only reason she is still alive is because she still has something to offer. If she didn't, His Lord Lin Yuan would have killed her and taken her bones immediately.
Just as Xiao Wu was about to return to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, a middle-aged man dressed in a black robe suddenly walked out of an alley not far away.
Without saying a word, the man strode towards Xiao Wu, saying in a telepathic voice, "Don't resist. I'll take you away from here now. Come with me."
Xiao Wu frowned slightly, looking at the middle-aged man in black robes in front of her with a puzzled expression. Just as she was about to speak, she felt a gentle breeze coming from in front of her.
Immediately, in Xiao Wu's sight, a handsome young man with long silver-white hair, dressed in a blood-red robe, appeared in front of her.
The handsome young man, with one hand behind his back, smiled calmly and said, "Trying to take Xiao Wu away right in front of me? Isn't that a bit too presumptuous?"
The man in black robes' expression changed slightly. He raised his head to look at Lin Yuan's location and said coldly, "You knew I was in Heaven Dou City all along?"
Lin Yuan replied with a smile, "It can be, or it can not. If you don't touch Xiao Wu, I don't care whether you are in Heaven Dou City or not."
"But if you harm Xiao Wu, I will naturally not allow you to take her away."
The weathered face beneath the black robe revealed a hint of coldness, indicating that it was impossible to take Xiao Wu away today.
"Lin Yuan, I was injured and unable to kill you back then, but that doesn't mean you can be so presumptuous in front of me."
"So, Clear Sky Douluo wants to spar with me again?"
Lin Yuan glanced at Xiao Wu beside him and calmly said, "You go back first, leave this to me."
Xiao Wu had probably guessed the other party's true identity by now, so she nodded and turned to run towards the direction of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
On the quiet street, Lin Yuan released his Soul Power pressure without hesitation. In almost an instant, it surrounded the entire Heaven Dou City, seemingly with the aura of destroying this place.
Tang Hao didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble, and besides, this place was Heaven Dou City of the Heaven Dou Empire, so fighting here would be tantamount to courting death.
If we disturb the local army, we might expose our identities, which would be a real problem.
Therefore, Tang Hao also withdrew his previous energy, looked towards Lin Yuan's location, and said with a frown, "If you have the guts, come with me to Sunset Forest. I'll be waiting for you there."
As he spoke, Tang Hao quickly disappeared from the spot, leaving only a special energy fluctuation in the air.
Lin Yuan snorted disdainfully. He didn't even put the King of Slaughter in his eyes, let alone Tang Hao, whose old injuries had not yet healed.
"I'd like to see what gives you the right to be so presumptuous in front of me now."
As Lin Yuan's voice faded, even his body swayed slightly before disappearing slowly like Gui Mei.
Heaven Dou Empire, Sunset Forest.
Mist swirled through the forest, rising like ghosts, seemingly enveloping the entire forest in a mysterious atmosphere.
Every creature in the terrifying forest exudes an eerie aura, making it impossible not to feel the presence of fear.
Lin Yuan stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Come out."
As soon as he finished speaking, a black figure appeared out of thin air on the withered treetops not far away, accompanied by a powerful energy fluctuation that seemed capable of annihilating all living beings in the area.
