I Will Destroy Sky Dragon Pavilion at Any Cost!

Suotuo City, Shrek Academy.

Tang Hao, who had spent seven days drinking stolen wine in a tavern in Nuoding City, finally pulled himself together and arrived at Shrek Academy.

"Ah Yin is gone, but I still have Tang San!"

Tang Hao decided to return to Shrek to see his precious son, as well as his Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit daughter-in-law.

Tang Hao had been at Shrek Academy for a while, secretly watching from the shadows. "Why don't I see Xiao Wu?"

Tang Hao's heart skipped a beat. Combined with the heavy atmosphere within the academy, a bad feeling rose in him.

He stopped concealing himself and appeared at the entrance of Shrek Academy.

"Who are you?"

Li Yusong watched the man before him vigilantly. He was wrapped in a tattered black robe and reeked heavily of alcohol.

"I'm Tang San's father."

Tang Hao removed the hood of his black robe, revealing a somewhat gaunt and listless face.

Ah Yin had been taken away by Scarlet King, who had even left behind an extremely arrogant taunt.

After missing her too deeply and drinking for seven consecutive days, even the body of a Titled Douluo had become lifeless.

"You're Tang San's father?"

Li Yusong carefully examined Tang Hao from head to toe, then shook his head. He clearly did not believe him.

Tang San might not have been especially handsome, but he was certainly not bad-looking. He bore no resemblance whatsoever to this bearded, somewhat... hollow-cheeked middle-aged man.

"Forget it. Wait here. I'll go call Tang San."

Li Yusong got to his feet, intending to call Tang San over. What if this man really was Tang San's father?

Tang Hao paid no attention to Li Yusong's scrutiny, nor did he care that Li Yusong intended to call Tang San. He simply walked inside.

He was not a patient man.

"You're trying to force your way in!"

Li Yusong summoned his Dragon Pattern Staff. One white, one yellow, three purple, and one black Soul Ring emerged as he swung the staff at Tang Hao.

Tang Hao did not even glance at him. With a burst of Soul Power, he sent Li Yusong flying.

He continued walking inward. With every step he took, a Soul Ring appeared.

Yellow! Yellow! Purple! Purple! Black! Black! Black! Black! Red! Nine Soul Rings in total!

The aura of a Titled Douluo erupted, instantly drawing out Flender, the Shrek Seven Devils, and the others.

"Dad!"

Tang San cried out when he saw the figure below.

When he saw the nine Soul Rings beneath Tang Hao's feet, he was even more shocked. "Dad is actually a Titled Douluo!"

"A Titled Douluo!"

"And he even has a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring!"

Dai Mubai, Ning Rongrong, and the others stared at Tang Hao's nine Soul Rings in astonishment, then looked at Tang San.

"Tang San."

Tang Hao also saw Tang San and withdrew his aura and Soul Rings.

Wonderful! Dad is a Titled Douluo. He'll definitely be able to find Xiao Wu.

Tang San thought this as he swiftly used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to reach Tang Hao.

"Greetings, Your Excellency."

Flender, Zhao Wuji, and the other Shrek teachers who had come out at the commotion spoke respectfully.

"Greetings, Clear Sky Douluo."

Yu Xiaogang deliberately waited until Flender and the others had finished before speaking calmly.

He gave off the air of being the only sober one in a world of drunks.

"Greetings, Your Excellency. I offended you earlier."

Li Yusong also walked inside and bowed anxiously.

What was going on?

Tang Hao felt something strange. Why was the left corner of his mouth rising uncontrollably?

"Dad!"

Tang San's voice pulled Tang Hao back to his senses.

"Son!"

Tang Hao opened his arms.

"Dad!"

Tang San opened his arms as well.

"Son!"

The two moved forward at the same time.

Ignoring everyone present, father and son embraced tightly. At the same moment, tears streamed from the corners of their eyes like a torrential downpour.

Taking advantage of this moment, Tang Hao cried out all the longing he had carried for Ah Yin over the years, along with his self-blame.

Tang San's emotions were much simpler. First, his father had left without saying goodbye all those years ago, and they had only now finally met again. Second, Xiao Wu's "disappearance"...

"They..." Ma Hongjun edged closer to Dai Mubai. He wanted to let out a sound of disgust, but was afraid Tang Hao would hear him.

Dai Mubai gave Ma Hongjun a look that said it was too awful to watch.

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing had completely opposite reactions, both sighing over the depth of the father-son bond.

"Tang San, let me ask you." After crying for a while, Tang Hao grabbed Tang San by the shoulders. "Where is that little girl named Xiao Wu?"

At the mention of Xiao Wu, Tang San's tears, which had just begun to stop, started pouring down again.

"I'll explain."

Yu Xiaogang walked over to them, patted the still-crying Tang San, and told Tang Hao about Xiao Wu's disappearance a few days ago.

"She vanished without a sound?"

Tang Hao inwardly realized something was wrong. They did not know Xiao Wu's identity, but he did. She must have been discovered by a Titled Douluo or Soul Douluo, then abducted in the middle of the night.

He quickly asked, "Has Xiao Wu met any Soul Masters above Soul Douluo rank recently?"

"Yes!" Zhao Wuji stepped forward. "We encountered them in the Star Dou Forest."

"Uh... they were called the Imperial Dou Team, I think." Zhao Wuji scratched his head. "Anyway, that team had two Titled Douluo leading them."

"They were Red Fire and Mystic Water, the two consecrates of Sky Dragon Pavilion," Flender added, pushing up his glasses.

"Your Excellency means..." Yu Xiaogang suddenly had a flash of insight.

Tang Hao understood Yu Xiaogang's meaning. With a casual wave of his hand, a Soul Power barrier appeared, enveloping Flender, Yu Xiaogang, Zhao Wuji, and Tang San.

"What the hell?" Ma Hongjun kicked a pebble on the ground. "They won't even let us listen."

Ning Rongrong curled her lips as well, glaring at the Soul Power barrier in dissatisfaction.

Despite setting up the Soul Power barrier, Tang Hao still lowered his voice. "The Master is right. Xiao Wu isn't human."

"Xiao Wu isn't human?" Tang San could not believe it. "How is that possible?"

"Xiao Wu lived with me in Nuoding City for six years!"

"How could she not be human?"

Tang San repeatedly denied it, his expression becoming somewhat frenzied.

"Tang San, Xiao Wu is a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that took human form." Tang Hao patted Tang San's back. "When a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast rebuilds itself, it becomes a six-year-old human child."

"Before reaching rank seventy, she still carries the aura of a Soul Beast and can be sensed by experts above Soul Douluo rank. After rank seventy, she becomes a completely ordinary human."

"At Nuoding Junior Spirit Master Academy, I saw through Xiao Wu's Soul Beast identity. It wasn't just me—Red Fire and Mystic Water were also in Nuoding City at the time, and they discovered Xiao Wu's identity too."

"We fought. I won, and perhaps they feared me, so they temporarily gave up on making a move against Xiao Wu."

Tang Hao's voice became slightly unnatural at this point. Even he did not believe that Sky Dragon Pavilion would give up a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast because of a Clear Sky Douluo covered in hidden injuries, but that was the truth.

"When they encountered you again in the Star Dou Forest, they may have realized I was not nearby, so they took Xiao Wu."

Tang Hao's voice suddenly turned deep. "Your mother was the same."

Tang Hao directly revealed Ah Yin's identity. In truth, it was no longer a secret. The events of that year seemed to have been controlled by an invisible hand.

Now, all major factions knew about how Qian Xunji, the Pope of Spirit Hall, had once pursued Tang Hao and a Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor.

Even Yu Xiaogang knew every detail.

"My mother was also a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?" Tang San no longer knew how many times he had been shocked today.

Am I not human?

My mother was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, and my father is the continent's youngest Titled Douluo?

Am I a half-beast?

Tang San was going through a mental storm.

Xiao Wu was actually a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. Could she really be a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit Emperor?

"Sky Dragon Pavilion, what a Sky Dragon Pavilion! Xiao Wu may be a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, but she has already taken human form. She is my student!" Yu Xiaogang suddenly roared. "I will destroy Sky Dragon Pavilion at any cost!"
