Tang Xiao? A Spine-Broken Cur!

Two days later, at a luxurious hotel in Heaven Dou City.

The Six Great Enshrined of the Worship Hall and the ten elders of the Papal Hall were all present, without a single absence.

As Pope, Qian Cheng sat in the seat of honor with Qian Renxue.

As for that old fellow Qian Daoliu, he was naturally left at home to guard the place and honor his promise.

"Since everyone is here, I'll get straight to the point!"

Qian Cheng looked at Spirit Kite Douluo and asked, "Give your report."

"The forces heading to the Clear Sky Sect for the ceremony are as follows."

"White Tiger Great Emperor Dai Tianfeng of the Star Luo Empire, Empress Zhu Tiancai, and Dai Weisi, the most likely heir to the throne."

"Emperor Xue Ye of the Heaven Dou Empire, Prince Xue Xing, and the three Committee Members of Heaven Dou Royal Academy."

"Ning Fengzhi, Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo."

"Yu Yuanzhen, Sect Master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, along with the Blue Lightning Twin Stars, Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin."

"Of the four single-attribute clans, aside from the Breaking Clan, the other three had their clan heads bring their heirs to the Clear Sky Sect."

"As for the remaining small and mid-sized sects, such as the Iron Sword Sect and Black Tiger Sect, their sect masters all went personally."

"The Lower Four Sects may have received some news from somewhere. Not one of them went this time, nor did they send any gifts."

"The one responsible for receiving the honored guests is Tang Xiao. He is still at the foot of the Clear Sky Sect's mountain."

Spirit Kite Douluo laid out all the intelligence she had gathered.

"Our Spirit Hall has been silent for far too long. These sects no longer take us seriously!"

"The Clear Sky Sect is holding this ceremony so brazenly, without taking the Great Enshrined's words to heart at all."

"Old man, give the order!"

"That's right, we've waited long enough!"

The many Enshrined and elders forcibly suppressed the fury in their hearts.

"Radiant Feather Douluo, once we reach the Clear Sky Sect, if anyone tries to leave, shoot them dead with a single arrow!"

Qian Cheng instructed Radiant Feather Douluo.

"My arrows have long been thirsting for blood!"

Radiant Feather Douluo's face was filled with cold killing intent.

"If Yu Yuanzhen dares to interfere, Golden Crocodile Douluo, let him know what the true number one beast martial soul is!"

Qian Cheng's gaze fell on Golden Crocodile Douluo.

"Understood!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo nodded.

"Today, the Clear Sky Sect will become history!"

Qian Cheng took the lead out of the hotel, with the other Enshrined and elders following closely behind.

Even without flying, Titled Douluo were incredibly fast.

In less than five minutes, Qian Cheng and the others saw the Clear Sky Sect's mountain gate outside Heaven Dou City.

Today, the Clear Sky Sect had dressed up its entire mountain in extravagant splendor.

A red carpet had been laid along the winding mountain path, stretching from the foot of the mountain all the way to its summit.

The trees on the mountain had also been carefully tied with strips of red cloth.

In the gentle breeze, the red cloth fluttered like colorful ribbons, adding a festive air to the entire Clear Sky Sect.

A huge banner hung from the archway at the foot of the mountain.

Written across it in large golden letters were the words, "Clear Sky Sect Grand Ceremony," making it especially eye-catching.

"Not bad, not bad. You've made your own funeral so grand that it saves me quite a bit of trouble."

Seeing everything before him, Qian Cheng could not help but sneer.

At the same time, Tang Xiao, who was stationed at the foot of the mountain to receive honored guests, along with the other Clear Sky Sect disciples, saw Qian Cheng and his group as well.

"You're here for the ceremony, right?"

A Clear Sky Sect disciple walked over, tilting his head as he looked at Qian Cheng and the others.

Neither Qian Cheng nor the others spoke. They merely looked at him as though he were prey.

"Are you all deaf? If you're here for the ceremony, show your invitations. If you don't have one, get the hell out!"

The Clear Sky Sect disciple's face darkened, and he looked extremely impatient.

"Kill him."

Qian Cheng spoke expressionlessly.

"I'll do it!"

Qianjun Douluo directly summoned his Coiling Dragon Staff.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black—Nine Spirit Rings slowly rose from beneath his feet.

The formidable Soul Power unique to a Super Douluo swept outward like a hurricane.

"A Titled Douluo? This junior failed to recognize—"

Before the Clear Sky Sect disciple could finish speaking, Qianjun Douluo's Coiling Dragon Staff had already come crashing down.

Bang!

A crisp bursting sound rang out.

The Clear Sky Sect disciple's head split apart like a watermelon, bursting into several pieces.

Red, white, yellow—

A chaotic mess splattered across the ground, giving off a nauseating stench.

"Who are you people? How dare you commit murder at the gates of my Clear Sky Sect?"

Seeing a disciple of his sect beaten to death, Tang Xiao's rage instantly surged.

This was the Clear Sky Sect!

And they had killed one of its disciples right under his nose!

How dare they stir up trouble on his turf?

Even a Titled Douluo would not leave here unscathed.

"You're Tang Xiao, right?"

Qian Cheng tilted his head and glanced at Tang Xiao before saying calmly, "You don't seem all that special."

"Die!"

Tang Xiao had already sentenced this group to death. He immediately summoned the Clear Sky Hammer.

As his martial soul emerged, Nine Spirit Rings slowly rose beneath his feet.

Tang Xiao's ninth spirit ring erupted with dazzling light!

Under his control, the Clear Sky Hammer smashed toward Qian Cheng with unmatched might.

The hammer's shadow carved an afterimage through the air, as if even space itself were being torn apart.

A savage smile spread across Tang Xiao's face. He was convinced that this strike would crush Qian Cheng into dust.

Yet Qian Cheng neither dodged nor evaded. He merely extended a finger lightly.

"You want to block my Clear Sky Hammer with one finger?"

"Not even Qian Daoliu of Spirit Hall has that ability!"

"Since you're so eager to die, I'll reluctantly send you on your way!"

Seeing this, Tang Xiao sneered disdainfully.

The instant the Clear Sky Hammer touched Qian Cheng's finger, something horrifying happened.

The sight of tendons snapping and bones breaking never appeared!

Instead, Qian Cheng's finger firmly held the Clear Sky Hammer suspended in midair!

The Clear Sky Hammer's immense power became like a placid lake, unable to stir even the slightest ripple.

"Didn't you eat? You don't have any strength at all!"

The corners of Qian Cheng's lips curled upward as he lightly flicked his finger!

That seemingly casual flick contained earth-shattering power.

As the Clear Sky Hammer was sent flying, Tang Xiao was flung away like a kite with its string cut, smashing heavily into the distant ground.

His body skidded across the earth, leaving behind a long trail, each mark seeming to speak of the terror of that blow.

Tang Xiao struggled to raise his head from the ground, his face filled with shock and disbelief.

"A powerful enemy."

Tang Xiao had just been about to summon sect disciples for reinforcements, but Qian Cheng was faster!

Qian Cheng appeared before Tang Xiao like a ghost!

His fair, slender palm pressed directly onto Tang Xiao's face, then—

Smashed downward!

Rumble!

Half of Tang Xiao's body was buried in the earth.

He felt every bone in his body shatter. Pain instantly flooded through him, leaving him without even the strength to struggle.
