Tang San's Birth

"Qian Xunji, do you intend to start a war with the Clear Sky Sect?"

Qian Xunji snorted coldly, "What does the Spirit Hall have to fear from the Clear Sky Sect?"

Tang Hao's thick eyebrows furrowed; he knew Qian Xunji was telling the truth.

The Spirit Hall has four Peak Douluo, and although the Clear Sky Sect is strong, only my father is holding up the facade now.

The fate of the old man Tang Chen, remains unknown, and he has not returned to this day.

Moreover, he had no idea whether his sect would go to war with the Spirit Hall for his sake.

But he did not back down.

"Qian Xunji." Tang Hao pulled the Clear Sky Hammer from the ground, gripped the handle with both hands, and held it horizontally in front of him. "If you dare to touch her today, I, Tang Hao, swear—I will do nothing else in my life but kill everyone from your Spirit Hall."

"Your son, your daughter, your wife, your men—I'll kill them all, until I'm dead."

Qian Xunji's expression remained unchanged as he looked down at Tang Hao.

"When you said that, did you ever consider whether you still had a chance for revenge?"

After speaking, Qian Xunji raised his right hand, and a golden light shone in his palm, condensing into a long sword. "Do you have any last words? I can kindly take your last words back to the Clear Sky Sect."

"Enough with the nonsense!" Tang Hao slammed the Clear Sky Hammer on the ground. "If you want to fight, then come at me!"

Qian Xunji released his Angel Martial Soul.

Golden light burst forth from his body, like a sun exploding in the sky above the mountains and forests.

Six wings unfurled behind him, and the light elements in the air converged wildly towards him, forming a visible golden river of light that surged in from all directions.

Nine Soul Ring appeared around him.

Three black and six red.

The oppressive aura of a level 99 Peak Douluo was released without reservation.

In an instant, Tang Hao's face turned pale.

The ratio of three black and six red was beyond his comprehension.

Even during the most prosperous period of the Clear Sky Sect, no one could gather six Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring.

On the entire continent, there was only one person Qian Xunji.

"I see you're just a Soul Douluo, do you think you can withstand this sword strike?"

Qian Xunji raised his right hand high, and a golden longsword condensed in his palm, with all the light elements poured into the sword.

"Sword of Angels".

The forty-meter-long sword slashed towards Tang Hao.

Tang Hao gripped the Clear Sky Hammer tightly with both hands and subconsciously took half a step back.

His heel touched the edge of the hole and he stopped, because Ah Yin was right behind him.

He suddenly leaped up, and with a bang, all eight of his Soul Ring exploded.

"Spirit Hall— " Tang Hao's roar echoed through the mountains and forests, "I'll fight you to the death!"

The violent energy from the exploding Soul Ring surged from his body, turning the dark red patterns on the hammer into a blazing white, causing it to tremble and expand.

"Haotian Secret Technique, Ring Detonation - Great Sumeru Hammer!"

Tang Hao swung the Clear Sky Hammer with both hands and smashed it towards Qian Xunji.

Yue Guan gasped in shock behind Qian Xunji.

Two level 96 Titled Douluo made the same judgment at the same time.

If I were to take that blow, I definitely wouldn't be able to.

Even if one were lucky enough to catch it, they would either die or be maimed.

The Great Sumeru Hammer is the Clear Sky Sect's trump card, a desperate, life-or-death technique used to exchange Ring Detonation for a single strike in dire circumstances, a one-way trip.

"Struggling is futile." Qian Xunji slashed down with his sword.

The Sword of Angels fell from the sky.

Wherever the sword passed, the air was cut open, space was distorted, leaving a golden arc in its wake.

When the Sword of Angels and the Clear Sky Hammer collided, all was silent.

With a deafening roar, golden light and crimson killing intent erupted simultaneously, forming a massive energy sphere in mid-air, its surface crackling with golden and crimson lightning.

It was so dazzling that birds within a radius of dozens of miles took flight simultaneously, and wild beasts trembled in their dens.

Snap!

The Clear Sky Hammer split in the middle, shattering the Sword of Angels.

The hammer face shattered inch by inch from the point of impact, and the cracks spread along the hammer body all the way to the hammer handle.

Boom! The Clear Sky Hammer shattered into countless fragments.

Tang Hao was sent flying backward, his back slamming into the mountainside, creating a huge circular crater centered on him.

Gravel rained down on him, and blood gushed from the corner of his mouth, staining his chest red.

The backlash, combined with the collision with Qian Xunji's peak attack, caused extremely severe shock to his internal organs.

He slid down the mountainside and fell to the ground at the cave entrance, desperately trying to stand up with one hand still gripping the ground.

"Tang Hao."

Qian Xunji landed from the sky, "Want to fight again?"

Tang Hao raised his head, his face covered in blood. "Don't... don't even think about hurting my wife and children."

Inside the cave.

A baby's cry broke the silence.

The sliver of sunlight filtering through the crack in the cave ceiling fell directly onto the haystack beneath Ah Yin, onto her small, blood-covered body.

Ah Yin's tears welled up instantly.

She had no strength left.

The excruciating pain of childbirth, the bumpy journey, and the exhaustion drained her completely.

She picked up the baby; it was a boy.

It was tiny, with wrinkled skin, its fists clenched tightly, and it cried loudly with its eyes closed.

Ah Yin lowered her head and pressed her lips to the baby's forehead.

"I'm sorry... Mom is so sorry... I'm afraid I won't be able to be with you from now on."

She looked up and glanced in the direction of the cave entrance.

Then, Ah Yin withdrew her gaze and gently waved her right hand.

One by one, Blue Silver Emperor grew from the ground.

Then, the golden-blue Blue Silver Emperor vines Entanglement around the baby's body, layer upon layer, enveloping him like a silkworm cocoon.

The tip of the vine tied a knot at the baby's chest, and then the entire vine began to contract, completely protecting the baby inside.

Ah Yin lowered her head and kissed the baby's face.

Finally, she covered him with Tang Hao's outer robe.

Goodbye, child.

She couldn't bear to look at him one last time, then she pushed herself up and walked out of the cave.

But as she reached the cave entrance, she heard the sound of a sword blade piercing flesh, a sound like a heavy drumbeat striking her heart.

Tang Hao's body stiffened.

A golden sword tip emerged from the center of his back, piercing through his muscles and bones, and passing right through his heart.

Fresh blood flowed down the tip of the sword, dripping onto the ground at the cave entrance.

Tang Hao lowered his head and glanced at the sword tip protruding from his chest.

"Brother Hao--!!"

Ah Yin's piercing screams tore through the entire mountain forest.

Qian Xunji drew the Sword of Angels, and Tang Hao lost his balance and fell forward.

His eyes were still open, his gaze fixed on the direction of the cave, and he still had words left unsaid.

The next second, Ah Yin, regaining her senses, rushed out of the cave.

Her body was trembling, and she rushed to Tang Hao's side, holding his head in her hands and turning him over.

Tang Hao's face had lost all color, his eyes were still open, and his pupils were dilated.

"Brother Hao... Brother Hao, wake up... wake up!"

Ah Yin shook his body, her tears falling onto Tang Hao's face and streaming down his cheeks.

"Your turn, Blue Silver Emperor."
