Yue Guan's Defeat, Tang San's Fantasies

Tang San and the others' ambush quickly paid off.

After all, the Shrek Seven Devils were already far stronger as a group than the large force of Spirit Hall soldiers Yue Guan had brought with him.

And this time, they had used Tang San's Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud to lie in wait, launching a sudden attack on the Spirit Hall soldiers.

As a result, the soldiers suffered heavy losses in the ambush.

The Spirit Hall soldiers immediately fell into disarray, and Yue Guan had no choice but to rally them.

He immediately revealed his nine Soul Rings, and his powerful Soul Power rapidly spread out from him in every direction.

"Stay calm! Repel the enemy!"

Yue Guan gathered his Soul Power in his throat and let out a thunderous roar at the Spirit Hall soldiers before him.

His voice soon rang across the area, and the soldiers finally regained their composure after hearing him.

However, the difference in their abilities compared with Tang San and the others was simply too great.

So the battle remained completely one-sided.

Tang San and the others looked thoroughly pleased with themselves.

As soon as they entered the fray, they unleashed their Martial Souls and slaughtered the Spirit Hall soldiers without restraint.

The forty-nine Spirit Hall soldiers were helpless against the onslaught. Their numbers visibly dwindled, and in the blink of an eye, a fifth of them were dead.

Yue Guan finally spotted Tang San and the others, who had launched the attack.

When he saw that they had killed so many of Spirit Hall's elite soldiers in such a short time, even Yue Guan didn't dare hesitate any longer.

He rushed into the fray himself, summoned his Martial Soul, the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, and then lit up all nine of his Soul Rings in quick succession before attacking Tang San and the others.

First, he used his Seventh Soul Ring. A strange sound rang out as the ring shone more brilliantly than ever. His Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum suddenly grew enormous, coiling around his body and unleashing a series of violent explosions.

Then he used his fourth, fifth, and sixth Soul Skills one after another. Countless flower needles filled the sky and shot toward Tang San and the others with furious force.

If Tang San and the others had been as they once were, they would certainly have died from that attack.

After all, Yue Guan's assault was so fierce that even an ordinary Soul Douluo would struggle to withstand it.

But Tang San and the others had returned from Sea God Island.

Their strength had soared since their return.

Every one of them was now among the top experts on the Douluo Continent.

So, yes, Yue Guan's attack was incredibly fierce.

But it couldn't hurt Tang San and the others in the slightest.

In an instant—

Tang San burst out laughing, holding the Seagod Trident. With ease, he broke apart the countless flower needles filling the sky.

"Don't bring out such cheap tricks and embarrass yourself."

"I'm not the same man I used to be. Your tricks won't work on me!"

Behind him, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and the others followed suit, each showing off their own skills as they effortlessly neutralized Yue Guan's attack.

"Exactly, you old dog Yue Guan. You're no match for us anymore."

"Just hurry up and die. We'll soon send Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue down to keep you company!"

They acted utterly arrogant.

Every time they deflected one of Yue Guan's attacks, they taunted him, flaunting their smugness.

But Yue Guan had no time to care about their gloating.

He was completely stunned.

He had never expected Tang San and the others to grow so quickly.

How long had it been? Their strength had already reached this level?

Tang San, in particular, held the Seagod Trident and fended off his attacks with such ease that Yue Guan could clearly see he still had strength to spare.

Was I really going to die here today?

At the thought, Yue Guan couldn't help feeling a wave of despair.

He continued attacking Tang San and the others.

But now the gap between them was enormous.

Not only were his next few attacks effortlessly deflected by Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and the others—

When Tang San seized an opening to strike, he left Yue Guan gravely wounded.

Tang San's trident sent him reeling backward, blood gushing from his mouth.

By the time he finally managed to steady himself, a wave of intense weakness had already swept over him.

Seeing this, Yue Guan felt even more despair well up inside him.

Tang San and the others, meanwhile, were all beaming. They were smug through and through, their faces and hearts filled with pride.

"Heh. Killing that old dog here today will be a great achievement."

"Before long, my name, Tang San's, will spread through the army and then across the Douluo Continent. Old dog Yue Guan, you should be proud to serve as my stepping stone!"

Tang San laughed aloud, brimming with arrogance.

Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun beside him were just as pleased with themselves.

After defeating Yue Guan, both Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun couldn't help imagining what it would be like, before long, to follow Tang San in defeating Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue and destroying Spirit Hall.

"If that happens, the entire Douluo Continent will have to fear us."

"By then, Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong will both be our prisoners. Those two women are stunning beauties. I'd sure like to get a taste of them."

Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun couldn't help whispering to each other.

By the end, they exchanged a glance and wore the knowing expressions of men who understood each other.

Of course! How could lustful men like Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun not covet Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue?

They were two of the most beautiful women on the Douluo Continent. And even if they weren't, simply being able to pin women of such status beneath them and subdue them would be a thrill in itself.

So Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun desperately hoped to win the battle, capture Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue, and keep them as slaves.

"Third Brother, Xiao San, do you think it'd be all right to treat Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong that way if we win this war?"

The two couldn't help whispering the question to Tang San.

Hearing their suggestion, Tang San's eyes lit up.

Clearly, he was tempted too.

Indeed, if they won the war, those two women would be theirs to do with as they pleased, wouldn't they?

Tang San started entertaining the idea as well.

He didn't even want to let Hu Liena go. In his eyes, she was another rare beauty.

"Sounds good."

"But that can wait until later."

"For now, let's kill that old dog Yue Guan."

"This will be a great achievement."

Tang San gave Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun a sly grin.

Then he said no more. Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong were still behind them.

They'd been whispering, but it would be bad if they'd let anything slip. This was their little secret. They could talk about having their way with Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue later, if they won and got the chance.
