After Qian Xunji received this news immediately, he spread it far and wide, including across the Network World. After all, he was still the most handsome man in Martial Soul City, and he had to make good use of such popularity.
Just as Martial Soul Hall released the news, the Clear Sky Sect received the report, warning them not to think about shielding the human soul master traitor Tang Hao and his wife Ah Yin, or they would be dealt with for the crime of harboring a fugitive.
"What? I just finished talking to Father about your situation, and Ah Yin's identity has already been exposed? Tang Hao, is this how you keep your promise to me that you would take good care of Ah Yin?" After learning the news, Tang Xiao was truly disappointed in his younger brother, at least regarding his emotional commitment; he was genuinely let down.
Tang Hao had already let Ah Yin give birth to their child at a hotel, but not long after, he was informed by a confidant sent by Tang Xiao that Ah Yin's identity had been exposed. Now, the entire Martial Soul Hall and the entire soul master world were hunting him down to hold him accountable, urging him to return to the sect to hide.
Returning to the sect—this idea was immediately cut off by Tang Hao. Given his current situation, he would definitely implicate the sect, so running away was his only option.
Looking at Ah Yin, who had just given birth and was holding their child, Tang Hao spoke with difficulty: "Ah Yin, we have to leave here. We can't go back to the sect. Your identity has been discovered by the leading powers like the entire soul master world and Martial Soul Hall, so we have to go back to your home. We must flee to the Star Dou Great Forest."
Ah Yin did not speak; she simply stood up, circulated her soul power to regulate her breathing, and walked to Tang Hao's side while holding the child.
Tang Hao didn't waste any words either; he took the child from Ah Yin's arms, held her hand, and ran toward the Star Dou Great Forest.
People in the Network World had already pushed "Tang Hao, one of the Haotian Twin Stars, is a traitor to human soul masters" and "Tang Hao's wife is actually a soul beast" to the top of the trending searches.
The netizens of this generation were not bad at all.
In a canyon not far from the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, Tang Hao forged ahead with courage, but he was still intercepted here by Qian Xunji.
Since he knew Tang Hao's wife was a soul beast, the only place Tang Hao could choose under these circumstances was the Star Dou Great Forest. Therefore, Qian Xunji had long studied the route and laid an ambush here.
Tang Hao glared at Qian Xunji; it was all because of this guy that he had fallen to this state.
"Tang Hao, hand over your wife, and I can spare your life."
It would have been better if Qian Xunji hadn't spoken, but the moment he opened his mouth, he demanded another man's wife. If it were you, could you agree to that?
"Dream on. You just want to hunt my wife to obtain her soul ring and soul bone; why bother with such high-sounding excuses?" Tang Hao summoned the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand, and eight soul rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black—encircled the Clear Sky Hammer.
"Tang Hao, it seems you have been deeply bewitched by this soul beast. You had better think clearly. Hand over the soul beast now, and both you and the Clear Sky Sect behind you can still have a good outcome. Otherwise, you can imagine what the consequences will be of being targeted by the entire soul master world." Qian Xunji smiled sinisterly, playing with his fingers as he spoke.
"Threatening me? It seems Martial Soul City is only capable of these things."
"Since that's the case, I, Tang Hao, hereby announce today that I am severing ties with the Clear Sky Sect. Everything I have done is my own choice and has nothing to do with the Clear Sky Sect." Tang Hao used his soul power to alter his voice and shouted angrily.
At the same time, he also posted this message on his personal account in the Network World.
"Stubborn and unrepentant. I gave you a way out, yet you don't know what's good for you. Then accept the judgment from the angels." Qian Xunji no longer intended to waste words with Tang Hao and directly ordered his subordinates to launch an attack.
"The end is near, Tang Hao; you cannot escape." A person whose ghost shadow was visible but whose soul rings were not said.
Ghost Douluo used his soul power to form claws and reached directly toward Tang Hao. Tang Hao looked at the ghost hands appearing in the air and on the ground, nearly getting entangled.
"Ling Tian Strike!" Tang Hao roared.
Muscles bulged on Tang Hao's body, and the Clear Sky Hammer grew to a visible size before he struck down with all his might onto the ghost hands.
All of Ghost Douluo's ghost hands were shattered by this blow.
"Chrysanthemum petals fall, the ground is wounded, flowers wither and hearts break." Chrysanthemum Douluo unleashed his soul skill, and golden petals turned into sharp blades, flying toward Tang Hao.
Facing so many petals, Tang Hao could only unleash his own soul skill, "Clear Sky Body Protection."
Seeing his soul skill blocked, Chrysanthemum Douluo used his sixth soul skill, Golden Stamens Overflowing with Rosy Clouds.
After a series of combos, neither of them could hold Tang Hao back, so Qian Xunji in the air had to choose to act himself.
"The illustrious Clear Sky Hammer, the mighty Clear Sky Sect. The descendant of the world's number one sect actually insists on going against the laws of nature and committing heaven-defying acts. Then I shall act on behalf of heaven to pass judgment upon you." Qian Xunji unfurled his massive Angel Martial Soul behind him, stood in the hands of the Angel Martial Soul, and looked down upon Tang Hao with contempt.
"Hmph, I insist on going against heaven. I am even more determined to change my fate." Tang Hao felt great disdain for these hypocritical people. Since the other party said he was defying heaven, he would show them exactly that.
"The same words as before: leave her, and I will let you go," Qian Xunji said.
"If you want to hurt her, you'll have to step over my dead body!" Tang Hao swung the Clear Sky Hammer and roared.
"Obsessed and lost." Qian Xunji let out a low hum.
"Angel Light Blade!" A long sword appeared in the hand of Qian Xunji's martial soul, and he slashed toward Tang Hao.
"Chaotic Cloak!" Tang Hao unleashed the sect's ultimate technique and hammered toward Qian Xunji.
Two massive forces collided with each other. Seeing that the situation was not right, the two Title Douluo, Chrysanthemum and Ghost, unleashed their Martial Soul Fusion Skill: Two-Pole Static Domain.
For a moment, everything in the surroundings came to a standstill.
Seeing the opponent frozen in mid-air, Qian Xunji immediately used a move, Angel Holy Sword, to pierce through the opponent's body.
Seeing Tang Hao knocked to the ground, Ah Yin hurriedly unleashed a soul skill to block Qian Xunji's follow-up strike.
Ah Yin looked at the soul masters surrounding them, her emotions sinking as she looked at Tang Hao: "Ah Hao, to have loved you in this life, Ah Yin has no regrets."
"You must always remember that this is our child." Ah Yin handed the newborn baby into Tang Hao's arms and then floated upward.
"No, Ah Yin, don't!" Tang Hao knew what Ah Yin was about to do. He watched in despair, unable to do anything.
Countless Blue Silver Grass grew throughout the entire canyon, and dozens of Blue Silver vines wrapped around Tang Hao. The massive magnetic field made the Martial Soul Hall side panic.
"Hurry and stop her! She is going to sacrifice herself!" Qian Xunji shouted in a hurry.
The two Title Douluo, Chrysanthemum and Ghost, along with a group of Soul Saints, attacked Ah Yin together, but the sacrifice did not stop.
Sacrifice is divided into two types: one is soul sacrifice, where the sacrificer's soul dissipates; the other is the sacrifice of soul power and life force, which is the method Ah Yin was currently using.
A massive red beam of light appeared in the sky, which then shone directly onto Tang Hao.
"No, Ah Yin, no! It was all my fault that I harmed you; it was all me!"
"Qian Xunji, you, and the entire Martial Soul Hall deserve to die." After Tang Hao received the sacrifice of Ah Yin, all his injuries were healed, and he even gained a 100,000-year soul ring.
"Since she has already sacrificed herself, we won't press the matter further." Qian Xunji looked at the soul ring that had already slipped through his fingers and intended to leave.
However, Tang Hao could not just swallow this insult.
"Clear Sky Hammer, Great Sumeru Hammer."
A massive amount of energy converged onto the Clear Sky Hammer, causing it to grow larger and larger.
Sensing the pressure of this strike, Qian Xunji hurriedly unleashed his ninth soul skill, Angel's Glory.
The others did not dare to be negligent either, and they quickly unleashed their strongest moves.
"Do you think you can block my attack with just this?" Tang Hao mocked.
"Ring Detonation." Tang Hao detonated his preceding soul rings, severely wounding the Martial Soul Hall side.
He himself was also injured due to the ring detonation, so he chose to temporarily avoid the sharp edge of the conflict to raise the only child he and Ah Yin had.
However, as he left, he picked up a single seed.
Qian Xunji was severely wounded by Tang Hao and was brought back to Martial Soul Hall by the two Title Douluo, Chrysanthemum and Ghost.
Coincidentally, at this moment, the Saintess of Martial Soul Hall "exited seclusion."
Qian Xunji had not revoked Bibi Dong's status as Saintess back then; only he and Qian Daoliu knew the inside story. Although others could sense that something was slightly off, they would never suspect this matter.
Qian Daoliu noticed Bibi Dong's return, and her soul power was at level 89, equivalent to a level 24 Title Douluo. This talent truly made Qian Daoliu feel a sense of regret.
"Old man, what are you scanning around with your spiritual sense for?" Nan Xuan sat in the Momo Treasure Appraisal House in the north of Martial Soul City, staring at the other party with his spiritual power.
"Who are you, and why are you targeting my Martial Soul Hall?" Qian Daoliu looked at Nan Xuan's spiritual power and asked with some anger.
"Targeting? Which eye of yours saw me targeting you? Isn't it because you offended me that I'm dealing with you?" The more Nan Xuan spoke, the heavier his tone became.
"Could it be that you are the person who saved Bibi Dong back then? No, you are the beloved person in Bibi Dong's heart. Hahaha, truly a talented man and a beautiful woman." As he spoke, Qian Daoliu's face was filled with regret.
Nan Xuan ignored this display of emotion from the other party.
"Then what is your purpose in coming here this time?" Qian Daoliu knew that the other party wouldn't come to chat with him for no reason.
"Let Bibi Dong kill her enemy with her own hands, and then become the Pope." Nan Xuan stated the purpose of this operation directly.
"How is that possible? He is my son, after all." Qian Daoliu replied indignantly.
Although Qian Daoliu had already guessed the other party's intentions just now, he still felt some anger when the other party demanded his agreement.
"How does your son compare to your granddaughter? You know in your heart. Don't think about fighting me to the death; you are not my opponent. Besides, if you are gone, no matter how good your granddaughter's talent is, she won't reach that step." Nan Xuan said with a squinting smile.
Nan Xuan was indeed not afraid of Qian Daoliu fighting to the death now; with his Seventh Soul Skill and domain skills, no matter what Qian Daoliu did, he couldn't do anything to him.
Qian Daoliu was still hesitating whether to fight Nan Xuan to the death; what if the other party was just bluffing him?
"Seven years ago, my spiritual power could crush you. Now, dealing with your 7-year-old granddaughter shouldn't be a difficult task, right?" Nan Xuan used his spiritual power to manifest a figure of Qian Renxue and then destroyed it.
That's right, the other party was already this strong seven years ago; he might be even stronger now. Furthermore, as he had pointed out, his own son was a waste in front of his granddaughter—three Title Douluo fighting one Soul Douluo and a woman who had just given birth, and the key was that they still lost. It truly shamed the Angel Clan.
Countless thoughts flashed through Qian Daoliu's mind, and he finally asked: "How can you guarantee that you won't persecute my granddaughter?"
"We won't guarantee it, because there's no need. I will have Bibi Dong take Qian Renxue as her disciple and then teach her." Nan Xuan said, spreading his hands.
Hearing this, Qian Daoliu worried that Bibi Dong would project her hatred for Qian Xunji onto his granddaughter, and just as he was about to ask, Nan Xuan had already spoken for him: "Don't worry about that. The grievances of the predecessors will not implicate the children. Her talent is excellent, and she will be a great asset to Martial Soul Hall. Bibi Dong just wants to make this world a better place, so how will you choose?"
Qian Daoliu pondered for a moment, sighed, and said to Nan Xuan: "Let it be as you say."
After speaking, Qian Daoliu's spiritual projection left, and Nan Xuan smiled, withdrawing his own spiritual body as well.
Then, he used the Network Card mark branded on the other party's martial soul to contact Bibi Dong.
