The Temptation of Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings and Soul Bones, Blue Silver Heavenly Defense Array!

Since he had the Golden Egg in hand, he naturally intended to raise these two brothers as high-grade leeks for now.

Especially Tang Xiao. Given another three years, he should be able to break through to become a Title Douluo.

A Title Douluo could shorten the Golden Egg's incubation time by a full year!

Secondly, the two brothers had accompanied Ah Yin through her trials for two months. Even if they had no merit, they had still put in the effort.

Now, by generously sparing them in front of Ah Yin, he could quietly harvest a wave of her favorability and loyalty.

Thirdly, after suffering such a huge setback today and learning Ah Yin's true identity, the two would certainly rush back to the Clear Sky Sect at the first opportunity!

Most likely, they would tell the elders of their sect about discovering a Hundred-Thousand-Year Transforming Soul Beast.

And if those old geezers from the Clear Sky Sect could not resist the temptation and sent several Title Douluo-level elders here to settle the score and seize the soul beast...

To Lan Lingcang, that would simply be a pie falling from the sky. Fresh Title Douluo heads would be delivering themselves to his doorstep to boost the Golden Egg's progress.

This was called casting a long line to catch a big fish!

And events did indeed unfold exactly as Lan Lingcang had calculated.

When Ah Yin saw that Lan Lingcang was actually willing to let these two humans who knew the secret leave for her sake...

The tightly wound string in her heart finally relaxed, and her favorability toward this new emperor unconsciously rose a little.

"Thank you for showing mercy," Ah Yin said softly.

However, while Ah Yin wanted to leave peacefully with Lan Lingcang, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao below were not necessarily willing to let her go so easily.

"No! You can't take her away!"

Tang Hao suddenly stepped forward, pointing the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand at Lan Lingcang in midair as he roared.

He turned to Ah Yin, his tone carrying urgency and self-deception. "Ah Yin, don't be afraid!"

"You must have been forced to leave with him because you couldn't disobey this so-called new emperor, right?!"

Ah Yin: ???

Ah Yin sighed helplessly and looked at the two former companions below, her tone exceptionally calm.

"You should leave. I'm willingly going back with him."

"He didn't force me. We are both members of the Blue Silver Clan to begin with. Returning to the forest is where I belong."

Since the two had already learned her true identity from Lan Lingcang's words, Ah Yin simply stopped hiding it and admitted it openly.

Yet after hearing Ah Yin's heartfelt explanation, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao below merely furrowed their brows.

The brothers exchanged a tacit glance, and their eyes instantly turned incomparably sharp and greedy.

"Buzz!"

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black—eight Soul Rings rose from beneath their feet.

The powerful aura of two eight-ringed Soul Douluos erupted in an instant.

"No matter what you say, we brothers will absolutely never let him take you away today!" the two declared in unison.

In Tang Hao and Tang Xiao's eyes, it no longer mattered whether Ah Yin had spoken from her heart.

Human greed was displayed to the fullest at this moment. The two of them were now willing to believe only what they wanted to believe.

As long as they killed the man before them, Ah Yin would naturally stay behind obediently.

Setting aside the undisguised affection and possessiveness they held toward Ah Yin...

She was a living, breathing Hundred-Thousand-Year Transforming Soul Beast!

A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring!

A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone!

And there were two sets of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Rings and Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones!

The two brothers could have one complete set each!

With such a temptation before their eyes, enough to drive the entire Douluo Continent mad, how could they possibly let these two leave so easily?

Furthermore, in the eyes of the two brothers, the Blue Silver Grass clan, universally acknowledged as a waste Martial Soul, was nothing remarkable at all.

This young man who called himself the new emperor had merely replaced Ah Yin's position.

At most, his cultivation could only have just reached the hundred-thousand-year level.

The two did not know the rule that only one Blue Silver Emperor could exist within the Blue Silver Clan.

Nor did they know what price had to be paid to break that rule.

They knew absolutely nothing.

It was merely a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Grass. With the Clear Sky Twin Stars joining forces and relying on the tyrannical power of the number one tool Martial Soul in the world, they might not be unable to forcefully take him down!

If it had been some other Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast specialized in slaughter, such as the Titan Giant Ape, they might have turned and fled immediately. That was absolutely not an option.

But a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor? Converted to the combat power of a human Soul Master, it was at most equivalent to an ordinary Title Douluo at rank ninety-one or ninety-two.

During the two months they had traveled with Ah Yin, they had already figured out the Blue Silver Emperor's capabilities.

They knew clearly that while the Blue Silver Emperor possessed tenacious vitality, its offensive power was not particularly strong. It leaned toward support and lacked powerful means of attack.

Two against one—the advantage was theirs!

As for why this young man, despite possessing only a hundred thousand years of cultivation, could have a human form?

The two brothers believed it must be because, as a plant-type being, he had used some special concealment or transformation technique.

Even if they racked their brains, they could never have imagined it.

The Lan Lingcang before them was not some Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast at all, but a Ferocious Beast that had truly broken through to two hundred thousand years!

Only a super soul beast that had reached two hundred thousand years of cultivation was qualified to possess such a humanoid form.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul Avatar!" The two brothers held nothing back.

Accompanied by dazzling black light, the two already enormous Clear Sky Hammers swelled instantly under the enhancement of the Martial Soul Avatar.

In the blink of an eye, the Clear Sky Hammers transformed into giant hammers the size of small mountains, radiating terrifying pressure.

"You..." Seeing the two use their Martial Soul Avatars, Ah Yin's favorability toward them immediately plummeted to rock bottom.

Could it be... that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Rings and Soul Bones were really so irresistible?

Ah Yin's eyes were filled with desolation.

But this was not over yet. The two jointly unleashed their strongest attack so far.

"Heaven-Surpassing Strike!"

Yet Lan Lingcang, standing at the very center of the attack, had no intention of dodging.

"That's it? Perfect. I'll use the two of you to test my new creation a little."

"Blue Silver Heavenly Defense Array!"

The moment his words fell, countless thick, gleaming vines surged from the void beneath his feet.

In the blink of an eye, the vines formed a massive semicircular defensive array, firmly protecting him and Ah Yin within.

"Boom!"

The two Clear Sky Hammers, carrying world-destroying might, slammed fiercely and solidly into the Blue Silver Heavenly Defense Array.
