Qian Renxue Suspected of Being a Transmigrator, Qian Renxue Suppresses Tang Hao

Li Taibai was completely bewildered, his eyes widening. "Holy crap, is that a talisman? Could Qian Renxue be a transmigrator too?"

"Ding! Host, Qian Renxue is a native of this world, not a transmigrator," the system's voice echoed in his mind.

"Then how does she know how to do this? Even I don't! Could she have a system too?" Li Taibai pressed.

"Negative. No system energy fluctuations detected. As for why she possesses things that do not belong to Douluo Continent, this system is also unaware."

"You don't know this, you don't know that—what use are you?" Li Taibai instinctively retorted with disdain.

"Host is expressing dissatisfaction with this system. Unbinding in progress..."

"No, no, no! Brother System! Lord System! I was wrong! My mouth just runs away from me!" Terrified out of his wits, Li Taibai hurriedly offered a sincere apology.

In the distance, Tang San watched his father trapped within the barrier, suffering constant blows. His gaze grew increasingly cold, and only one thought occupied his mind: This is bad. I must find a way to break this situation, or Father is in grave danger!

Tang Hao let out a low roar: "Left Leg Bone Soul Skill, Clear Sky Shelter!"

A blood-colored energy shield instantly expanded from his center, crystalline like amber, shielding his entire body without a single gap.

"Crackle—Boom—"

Attack after attack landed on the energy shield. Lightning exploded in blue-purple arcs, fireballs collided into crimson ripples, and ice spikes shattered into a sky full of ice crystals. The energy shield vibrated violently, yet it remained unbroken.

"Damn it!" Tang Hao stared fixedly at Qian Renxue outside the shield, his expression ferocious.

"What in the hell is this thing? Space is sealed by invisible energy; there is no way to break out!"

He could not fathom how this girl possessed so many bizarre methods. Her soul skills came one after another, and the soul power within her seemed like a bottomless pit.

To launch so many consecutive attacks—any other Soul Douluo would have been exhausted by now, yet she remained perfectly at ease.

"I refuse to believe your soul power exceeds mine!" Tang Hao gritted his teeth, a flash of madness in his eyes. "I am a level 95 Titled Douluo, one of the continent's top powerhouses! I will wear you down until you drop!"

"Grand Elder, don't you feel that what you are doing is unfair?" Tang San suddenly spoke up.

Qian Daoliu looked at him, his expression calm. "Xiao Xue and Tang Hao are engaged in a fair contest. How can you speak of unfairness?"

"Your granddaughter is clearly relying on external objects. Whether she uses her martial soul or not makes no difference to her."

"But my father is restricted from using his martial soul. Even as a Titled Douluo, he has become incredibly weak." Tang San looked directly at Qian Daoliu, his gaze sharp. "Is this fair?"

"You may use other means, provided you do not use your martial soul," Qian Daoliu said indifferently.

"We are soul masters; we should compete using the methods of soul masters. How can we rely on external objects?"

Tang San's tone grew colder. "Even in the Soul Master Tournament, one can only use their own martial soul. Grand Elder, are you intending to discard the traditions soul masters have upheld for thousands of years?"

"Hey, kid, don't be ungrateful!" Li Taibai couldn't help but sneer, stepping forward.

"Right now, we are the blade and you are the fish on the chopping block. You should take the opportunity when it's given to you instead of looking for trouble!"

He despised Tang San's habit of standing on a moral high ground.

It was clearly Tang Hao who was at a disadvantage, yet he insisted on harping about fairness—it was nothing more than looking for a way to save face.

"Who are you?" Tang San turned his head, his eyes as cold as frost.

"Grand Elder's disciple, Li Taibai." Li Taibai raised an eyebrow, his tone provocative. "What, want to have a go?"

Tang San let out a cold snort and abruptly turned his head away. Deep down, however, he had already noted the name: Li Taibai? Just you wait. You've added to your list of crimes. Once I grow stronger, I will make sure you know that offending me is the greatest mistake of your life.

The time of one incense stick passed quietly amidst the tense standoff.

Tang Hao felt the soul power remaining in his body drop below half, and cold sweat seeped from his forehead—if this continued, he would be exhausted long before the time was up. How had this woman's soul power not run dry yet?

"I've played enough. It's time to end this." Qian Renxue's voice suddenly rang out, carrying a hint of laziness.

Seven long swords appeared out of thin air before her. Cold light flowed along the blades, and each sword was affixed with nine talismans. The runes flickered, emitting a dangerous aura.

The long swords hovered in the air, their momentum climbing steadily, causing the surrounding air to distort slightly.

"Seven Star Absolute Kill, go!"

With a flick of Qian Renxue's fingertip, the seven long swords vanished from their spot instantly. When they reappeared, they had already pierced through the Dragon Trapping Array's barrier, hovering above Tang Hao's head.

The seven swords crossed in the air, forming a bizarre sword formation.

Seven third-tier long swords combined with sixty-three third-tier talismans, further infused with Qian Renxue's soul power and spiritual power—the might was already comparable to a level 93 Titled Douluo.

What was even more terrifying was that the sword formation was frantically absorbing the stray energy within the Dragon Trapping Array. The light grew brighter, and the momentum continued to climb.

"Break for me!" Qian Renxue's jade hand pressed down violently.

The seven long swords moved like shooting stars chasing the moon, carrying sharp sword qi as they pierced toward Tang Hao's energy shield.

Before the swords even arrived, the fierce sword qi had already caused ripples to spread across the energy shield.

"Block it for me!" Tang Hao's eyes bulged as he poured his remaining soul power frantically into the energy shield.

The light shield expanded to its limit, and the phantom of a Clear Sky Hammer appeared on its surface.

"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—"

The long swords collided with the energy shield, emitting a piercing, grating sound.

Cracks spread across the light shield at a speed visible to the naked eye. Tang Hao's face grew paler and paler, his soul power draining away like a floodgate being opened.

A few breaths later, with a crisp "crack," the Clear Sky Shelter shattered upon impact!

Seven long swords seized the momentum, thrusting toward Tang Hao's seven vital points: his brow, throat, heart, and four limbs. The angles were treacherous, leaving him nowhere to hide.

A flash of resolve crossed Tang Hao's eyes. In the instant his life was threatened, he cast aside all agreements—surviving was the only thing that mattered!

The pitch-black Clear Sky Hammer appeared abruptly in his hand, its head wreathed in violent soul power.

"Nine Absolutes of Clear Sky, Break Formula! Break for me!"

Tang Hao channeled his soul power to the limit, and the Clear Sky Hammer instantly swelled to a size of ten feet, smashing fiercely toward the seven long swords.

"BOOM—!"

An earth-shattering roar exploded through the forest. A terrifying shockwave rippled out from the point of impact, uprooting the surrounding trees and collapsing the ground into a crater several yards wide.

The barrier of the Dragon Trapping Array shattered instantly. The array disks and flags were sent flying by the shockwave, and the seven long swords were knocked backward, the talismans on their blades bursting into pieces.

Qian Renxue's eyes narrowed slightly. With a wave of her jade hand, the scattered array disks, flags, and swords flew toward her like birds returning to their nest, all being swept into her spatial ring.

Tang Hao leaned on the Clear Sky Hammer, kneeling on one knee and gasping violently. Sweat mixed with blood and grime slid down his cheeks, and his chest heaved like a bellows; he had clearly reached his limit.

Qian Renxue walked slowly to stand before him, her eyes as cold as blades, her voice devoid of any warmth: "Tang Hao, you have broken our agreement. Now, how do you wish to die?"

Tang Hao opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but only a hoarse, wheezing sound escaped his throat.
