"Child?!"

Ah Yin's delicate body trembled when she heard Qian Xunji's words, and she looked at the child in her arms.

That was right, her child was still here. This was the child she had carried for ten months and endured untold suffering to give birth to.

Ah Yin pressed her lips together and was just about to speak when Tang Hao beat her to it and shouted, "Qian Xunji, you despicable bastard! You're actually using my son to threaten Ah Yin and me! I'm telling you, you won't take Ah Yin away today! And don't even think about harming my son!"

Qian Xunji's face darkened. "Tang Hao, I'll give you one last chance. Will you hand over this Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast or not?!"

"I won't!" Tang Hao answered forcefully.

"Fine, fine, fine. Then don't blame me for disregarding the friendship between my father and your grandfather. Yue Guan, Gui Mei, attack!"

Qian Xunji's Six-Winged Angel martial soul appeared behind him, and nine soul rings emerged. The pressure of a Super Douluo descended directly upon Tang Hao and Ah Yin, firmly restraining them.

A glint flashed through Yue Guan and Gui Mei's eyes as they rushed forward, intending to capture Ah Yin alive.

"Ah!!! Dream on! Divine Slaughter's Domain!"

Suddenly, a towering bloody radiance erupted from Tang Hao's body. His aura surged dramatically, and he actually broke free from Qian Xunji's suppression.

The Clear Sky Hammer shone with red-black light. Tang Hao swung it with all his strength, forcing Yue Guan and Gui Mei back.

He abruptly grabbed Ah Yin's hand. "Go!"

Then, he transformed into a streak of bloody light and fled into the distance.

Qian Xunji's expression turned ugly. As the Pope of Spirit Hall and a Super Douluo, with two Super Douluo accompanying him, if he allowed Tang Hao to escape with a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast today, not only would he gain nothing, but he would also lose all face across Douluo Continent!

"Chase!"

The three erupted with Soul Power, tore through the sky, and pursued them directly.

From the shadows, Ao Zhan took in everything.

"This is absurd." Ao Zhan clicked his tongue.

He was clearly just a Soul Douluo, yet he had unleashed an aura no weaker than that of a Super Douluo. And when he swung the Clear Sky Hammer, even Yue Guan and Gui Mei, two Title Douluo, did not dare take it head-on. Wasn't that a little ridiculous?

And was Divine Slaughter's Domain really that powerful?

"Host, this naturally isn't Tang Hao's own power," the system said.

"You mean someone else gave him this power? Even his ability to defeat Qian Xunji and the other two originally wasn't because Ring Detonation was so powerful, but because someone was secretly helping him?" Ao Zhan frowned.

"That's right. And I don't need to say who that person is, do I?"

"Of course not." Ao Zhan narrowed his eyes. Who else could do this but Asura?

After all, Tang San's transmigration had been arranged by the Asura God, so he was certainly paying attention here as well.

Tang Hao's Divine Slaughter's Domain was merely the most basic form of the Asura Domain. Therefore, it would not be difficult for the Asura God to leave some kind of hidden passage within Tang Hao's Divine Slaughter's Domain and channel his power into it.

After figuring it out, Ao Zhan glanced at the sky, then flashed forward and activated Teleportation to closely follow them.

Meanwhile, in the God Realm.

Within the blood-red Asura God Temple, bloody light curled through the air. The Asura God, clad in blood-red armor, sat upon a throne forged from countless scarlet bones.

He tapped the armrest, his eyes fixed on the water mirror before him, where Tang Hao and Ah Yin's frantic escape was displayed.

"Not enough. Still not enough. They must be driven into despair. Only then will the Blue Silver Emperor willingly sacrifice herself. Only then can Tang Hao 'reasonably' severely injure Qian Xunji in grief and rage. Only then can Tang San 'justifiably' become enemies with Spirit Hall until death."

The Asura God sent a streak of bloody light into the water mirror.

Tang Hao, who was fleeing and evading pursuit, trembled slightly. He looked at Ah Yin, then swept his gaze over the barren surroundings, where not a single plant could be seen. His eyes were filled with coldness and calculation.

A moment later, his gaze shifted. Sensing three powerful auras approaching, the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand rapidly expanded in the wind. He poured all his Soul Power into it. "Chaotic Cloak!"

Qian Xunji narrowed his eyes. Golden light flashed in his hand, and a golden longsword appeared. Countless golden sword energies shot forth like meteors, easily sending Tang Hao flying.

A violent wind rose, sending Ah Yin's blue hair streaming. She looked at Tang Hao with a worried expression. "Brother Hao!"

"You should worry about yourself!" Gui Mei suddenly attacked, his ghostly claw reaching for Ah Yin.

"Ah!!! You little ghost, stay away from Ah Yin!"

Tang Hao suddenly erupted. His bloody radiance surged once again, and with a single hammer strike, he forced Gui Mei back.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Countless chrysanthemum petals sliced through the air like sharp blades, capable of cutting through iron like mud. Tang Hao hurriedly retreated with Ah Yin.

It was only because Yue Guan did not possess much killing intent that Tang Hao and Ah Yin had been able to evade so easily.

Very quickly, the two were surrounded by Qian Xunji, Gui Mei, and Yue Guan in a triangular formation.

Ah Yin pressed herself tightly against Tang Hao's side. At some point, the child in her arms had stopped crying and fussing.

However, no one had the time to care about that now, and Qian Xunji could not be bothered to care either.

After all, it was not his child. Giving Tang Hao and Ah Yin a warning earlier had already been more than generous. The most pressing matter now was capturing this Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast.

"What a nuisance. Fine, Yue Guan, Gui Mei, end this quickly. Use your Martial Soul Fusion Skill!" Qian Xunji coldly ordered Yue Guan and Gui Mei.

"Yes, sir!"

The two answered respectfully. In the next instant, they clasped hands as powerful Soul Power fluctuations spread outward. A translucent spherical curtain of light woven from countless golden and silver strands rapidly expanded from around them.

"Yin-Yang Stasis Domain!"

The moment it was unleashed, Tang Hao and Ah Yin were both restrained, unable to even circulate the Soul Power within their bodies.

"Damn it!" Tang Hao's eyes nearly split apart as he tried to break free, only to discover in despair that his strength was utterly insufficient to escape a Martial Soul Fusion Skill unleashed by two Title Douluo.

Damn it! I came up with such a perfect plan. I would use Spirit Hall's name to drive Ah Yin and me into a desperate situation, so Ah Yin could sacrifice herself to me. Then my ninth soul ring would have a Hundred-Thousand-Year lifespan, and in the future, I might even have the chance to advance toward Limit Douluo like Grandfather! Why did something go wrong?!

Tang Hao roared madly in his heart, revealing the thoughts he had never shown anyone.

That was right. Tang Hao had deliberately led Ah Yin toward Spirit Hall's territory. His purpose was to lure out Spirit Hall's Title Douluo. To make sure Ah Yin believed they were truly trapped in a desperate situation, he had even deliberately brought her to this desolate place, where not a single plant grew within a hundred li.

That way, a despairing Ah Yin would sacrifice herself to him. His own strength would rise to another level, allowing him to advance further along the path of a Title Douluo and perhaps lead the Clear Sky Sect back to the glory it had enjoyed when his grandfather Tang Chen was in power.

He believed that as long as Ah Yin sacrificed herself to him, Qian Xunji would not dare kill him no matter how furious he was, relying on the lingering prestige of his grandfather. At worst, Qian Xunji would simply beat him badly.

But compared to a Hundred-Thousand-Year soul ring, what was such a price worth?

Right, there was also the soul bone. Naturally, he would not give the soul bone to Qian Xunji. At worst, he could threaten to die. He believed Qian Xunji would not dare force the issue.

Moreover, this way, he would not incur the hatred of his elder brother Tang Xiao, because he knew Tang Xiao loved Ah Yin as well.

As long as the plan proceeded smoothly and Ah Yin sacrificed herself to him, he would not only gain a bright future, but Tang Xiao would also share his hatred and stand with him against Spirit Hall. He himself could become a tragic man and win the sympathy of the world.

When he sought alliances with other forces against Spirit Hall in the future, he would even have a reason to claim he was avenging his love.

One move, many gains.

But now, both he and Ah Yin were restrained by the Martial Soul Fusion Skill of Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo. It would be difficult even for Ah Yin to sacrifice herself to him. What was he supposed to do now?!
