Spirit Hall Only Dared to Talk Big

Bang!

Liu Erlong's head was seized by the old man and slammed hard into the ground.

Blood faintly seeped from between the crimson scales, and blood also flowed from the corner of Liu Erlong's mouth, an especially glaring sight.

"Do you still want my life now?"

Hu Yan Zhen withdrew his hand, his voice carrying a hint of mockery.

He had originally brought other clan members here to hunt soul beasts. His grandson's Soul Power had happened to reach level ten, so he had brought him along as well.

"Who exactly are you?"

Seeing the woman he loved beaten so badly, Flender immediately prepared to risk his life against him.

However, before he could make a move, Yu Xiaogang stopped him.

"Do you want to get Erlong killed?"

Yu Xiaogang glared angrily at Flender, his eyes filled with reproach and fury. "He's Heavenly Elephant Hu Yan Zhen, a level eighty-nine high-ranking Soul Douluo. Can you beat him?"

"Then what am I supposed to do? Just watch Erlong get bullied?"

Flender berated Yu Xiaogang, his voice full of unwillingness and anger.

Unfortunately, someone did not appreciate it at all!

"I'm fine. Leave me alone!"

Although Liu Erlong was unwilling, she still suppressed the violence in her heart.

"I was the one who offended you, Senior. Please do not blame us!"

Liu Erlong raised her still-bleeding forehead and looked at Hu Yan Zhen with pleading eyes.

"I still prefer that unruly look of yours!"

A trace of amusement appeared in Hu Yan Zhen's eyes.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah! You even called me a little bastard just now!"

Hu Yan Li stood with his hands on his hips, speaking in a smug, mocking tone.

"Senior, Erlong was only rash for a moment. Please forgive her."

Yu Xiaogang bent at the waist and lowered his head, his expression unreadable.

"I can be considered half-acquainted with the old dragon of your family. For his sake, I naturally won't kill this woman."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang immediately let out a sigh of relief, secretly rejoicing.

However, Hu Yan Zhen's next words made his heart race with unease.

"It would be one thing if she insulted me, but she insulted my grandson. That can't just be forgotten!"

Hu Yan Zhen stared at the three of them, his tone carrying a chill.

If it had not been for Yu Yuanzhen's sake, he would have crushed these three long ago.

"Erlong, hurry up and apologize!"

Yu Xiaogang glanced at Liu Erlong, a warning and hint flashing in his eyes.

"Little brother, I was wrong. Please forgive me."

As Yu Xiaogang's devoted lapdog, Liu Erlong followed his words to the letter.

Though unwilling, she still forced those words out.

As for Flender...

Something even lower than a lapdog—what objections could he possibly have?

A lapdog's goal was crystal clear: to win over the person they fawned on!

Flender only dared to keep his feelings buried inside and give silently. Naturally, he was not even as good as a lapdog.

"That arrogant look you had just now really annoyed me."

"How about this? Slap yourself twice, and I'll pretend none of this happened."

After pondering for a moment, Hu Yan Zhen said those contemptuous words.

"You're going too far..."

Flender's eyes widened, his face filled with fury.

However, before he could say anything, Yu Xiaogang shot him a fierce glare.

"Heh. Or I can do it myself and cut off one of her arms."

Hu Yan Zhen's voice carried icy killing intent.

"Erlong, what are you standing there for? Hurry!"

Yu Xiaogang urged her at once, secretly anxious.

In Yu Xiaogang's mind, the only thing that had ever mattered most was himself.

Liu Erlong could not die, nor could she lose an arm. Otherwise, the Three-in-One Spirit Avatar Fusion Skill would lose much of its power.

That would affect him greatly.

"I... okay!"

As Yu Xiaogang's lapdog, Liu Erlong barely hesitated before giving herself two slaps.

Slap! Slap!

The crisp sound of slaps echoed through the air, and her cheeks instantly became red and swollen.

"Can we leave now?"

Suppressing the rage in her heart, Liu Erlong covered her swollen cheek and spoke to Hu Yan Zhen.

"It's getting late. We should get on with our own business too."

Hu Yan Zhen waved his hand and led the members of the Elephant Armored Sect away.

"Xiao Gang, how could you let Erlong suffer such humiliation?"

Watching Hu Yan Zhen and the others depart, Flender nearly ground his teeth to pieces.

Liu Erlong was his goddess!

His goddess had been forced to slap herself?

It hurt her face, but it pained his heart!

"Flender, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Before Yu Xiaogang could speak, Liu Erlong began cursing Flender.

"If Xiao Gang hadn't recognized who they were, if Xiao Gang hadn't come up with a solution, we would all have died here!"

Liu Erlong's gaze fell upon Yu Xiaogang, her dark eyes filled with fervor.

This was the man she loved.

So intelligent, so decisive, so quick-witted!

"Fine. If even you think it's nothing, then I can't say anything more."

Seeing his goddess grow angry, Flender could only give himself two playing cards.

The big joker and the little joker!

One was his ID card, and the other was a photocopy.

Meanwhile, at the Clear Sky Sect far outside Heaven Dou City, they were also discussing Tang Hao's matter.

At this moment, the Clear Sky Sect was not, as outsiders imagined, complaining that Tang Hao had brought them great trouble.

Rather,

"Hahaha! Has something gone wrong with Spirit Hall's brains?"

"Is that even a question? If their brains were fine, would they demand that we break Uncle Hao's hands and personally deliver him to them?"

"Who is Uncle Hao? He's the idol of our generation, our pioneer!"

"Uncle Hao could kill Spirit Hall's Pope. I think I could try taking down an elder too!"

"Exactly! That Spirit Kite Douluo from Spirit Hall is mine. I can definitely fight her for three days and three nights!"

The younger generation of the Clear Sky Sect did not take Spirit Hall's notice seriously at all.

In their eyes, Spirit Hall was merely panicking and finding an excuse to bite people at random!

As for the Clear Sky Sect's higher-ups, they were currently in the council hall preparing for the sect's 444th anniversary celebration.

The strongest person in the Clear Sky Sect today was Tang Hao and Tang Xiao's father, a Super Douluo named Tang Zhen.

Not only was his Soul Power as high as level ninety-six, but he was also skilled in the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer and the Clear Sky Nine Arts.

Of course, the Clear Sky Sect had another pillar to rely on.

Tang Chen, hailed as invincible across the continent!

Although Tang Chen had vanished decades ago, the awe-inspiring prestige he had built by defeating all challengers still remained.

No one in the Clear Sky Sect believed that Spirit Hall would dare come and cause trouble.

Qian Daoliu had looked murderous back then, but in the end, he had made a lot of noise and achieved little—nothing but a paper tiger!

"Sect Master, which sects should we notify for this celebration?"

As an elder of the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Lie had to put the sect's commemorative ceremony first, even though his son had died!
