Douluo: Shocked, the Most Beautiful Bride Qian Renxue! Chapter 4

"No Clear Sky Hammer?"

[No presence of a Clear Sky Hammer martial soul detected in the vicinity.]

"That's strange. Xiao Wu is the only one in the dormitory right now, so where could Tang San have gone?"

"I can't just leave empty-handed. I'll kidnap Xiao Wu and force Tang San to show himself. That's the plan!"

Li Jiutian made up his mind, then kicked the door open to find the girl who could certainly be considered a goddess: Xiao Wu!

She was incredibly cute, dressed in pink attire with a black braid hanging past her hips, her pretty little face flushed with a rosy glow.

"Who are you!"

Xiao Wu put away the comb in her hand and stood up, looking at him with vigilance.

"I'm here for Tang San. Tell me, where did he go?"

Li Jiutian said calmly.

"Who are you, and what business do you have with my brother?"

Xiao Wu asked, probing for information.

"I'm asking one last time: where is Tang San? Don't force me to do this the hard way!"

After speaking, Li Jiutian walked slowly toward Xiao Wu. With every step he took, the pressure and holy aura radiating from his body intensified!

He didn't have time to waste here; if Grandmaster started to get suspicious, it would be troublesome. As a soul master with innate full soul power of level twenty, Li Jiutian was more than a match for Xiao Wu and Tang San even if they attacked him together.

"You're definitely not a good person. If you want to find my brother, you'll have to get past me first!"

Xiao Wu snorted coldly and kicked toward Li Jiutian.

Li Jiutian shifted his body slightly, dodging the flying kick with ease.

Xiao Wu used the momentum to plant her feet against the side wall, pushed off with force, leaped over Li Jiutian's head, and then delivered a fierce kick toward his skull!

"You're courting death!"

Li Jiutian said coldly, his entire body instantly enveloped in a golden barrier.

Xiao Wu's kick felt as if she had struck an iron plate, causing her immense pain, and she was sent flying over a meter away by the golden radiance.

"Damn it, who exactly are you!"

Xiao Wu wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, looking nervous.

"I am the one who has come for your brother's life!"

Li Jiutian replied, then charged toward Xiao Wu!

Xiao Wu's expression turned icy. Her speed increased, and she circled behind Li Jiutian in a flash, whipping her leg toward his head!

Just as Xiao Wu felt certain of her victory, Li Jiutian's body shifted slightly, and he evaded the strike.

Then, his left hand was enveloped in golden soul power, and he punched Xiao Wu in the abdomen!

Xiao Wu spat out a large mouthful of blood, was sent flying four or five meters away, and promptly lost consciousness.

"A mantis trying to stop a chariot—you've brought this upon yourself!"

Li Jiutian snorted, then unfurled his Angel Wings, scooped up Xiao Wu by her waist, and flew toward the Sunset Forest.

Before leaving, he left a letter on Xiao Wu's bed.

Two hours later.

Tang San finished practicing his Purple Demon Eye at their usual spot and pushed open the dormitory door, panting slightly.

"Where did that girl Xiao Wu run off to? She usually skips class to sleep in the dorm, so why is there no sign of her today?"

Tang San wondered. Just then, his gaze fell upon the envelope on Xiao Wu's bed.

"What is this?" Tang San tore open the envelope. When he saw the contents, his face paled in shock, and he immediately sprinted toward the Sunset Forest!

The letter read:

"Tang San, if you don't reach the western outskirts of the Sunset Forest before dark, you can kiss your precious sister goodbye forever!"

"If you dare let a second person know about this, I will kill her on the spot. Don't believe me? Feel free to try!"

Western outskirts of the Sunset Forest.

Xiao Wu was currently tied to a large tree, while Li Jiutian was eating some beef jerky he had bought near Notting Academy.

When he reached the second piece, he chewed for a moment, realized something was wrong, and spat it onto the ground.

"I didn't expect to find 'modern food technology' here in the Douluo Continent, man. This is pure duck meat with food coloring! Damn it, what a crooked merchant, ripping me off for 5 silver soul coins!"

Li Jiutian grumbled, then kicked the remaining jerky over a hundred meters away!

"Brother, please, you must not come!"

Xiao Wu's tears flowed uncontrollably as she whispered in worry.

"It's almost dark, and Tang San still hasn't come. It looks like he's abandoned you!"

Li Jiutian smiled slightly, his left fist wrapped in golden light, and he deliberately struck two centimeters away from Xiao Wu's head!

"Boom!" A hole was instantly blasted through the tree trunk.

"Kill me or torture me as you please, but my brother will definitely avenge me!"

Xiao Wu could no longer endure the terror and roared.

"Who are you? Why did you kidnap Xiao Wu? Let her go, or don't blame me for being impolite!"

At this moment, a voice came from behind Li Jiutian—it was Tang San!

"Brother, run! He wants to kill you!"

Xiao Wu shouted, trying to break free from the ropes, but already severely injured, her resistance was entirely futile.

"Finally here!" A wicked smile flashed across the corner of Li Jiutian's mouth.

[Top-tier martial souls Clear Sky Hammer and Blue Silver Emperor detected. Does the host wish to copy?]

"Copy the Clear Sky Hammer!"

[Congratulations to the host for successfully copying the Clear Sky Hammer and evolving it into the God-Slaying Hammer!]

"I've come alone just as you asked, now let Xiao Wu go!"

Tang San said nervously, his left hand hiding four poison needles behind his back.

"Fine, I'm not a man who breaks his word. Since you're here, Xiao Wu has no more value!"

Li Jiutian pondered for a moment, then flicked his left hand. A blade of light appeared in the air, and the ropes on Xiao Wu fell away instantly.

"Brother, if we're going to die, we die together. I'm not leaving!"

Xiao Wu said weakly.

"Go!" Tang San shouted, signaling her with his eyes.

Third Brother never does anything without a plan. Is he trying to stall this boy so I can go back and get reinforcements?

Xiao Wu understood, and without looking back, she ran toward the perimeter.

"Tang San, I have the confidence to kill you right here before Xiao Wu can bring back any help!"

"Do you really think you can hide those little schemes of yours from me?"

A sinister glint flashed in Li Jiutian's eyes, and then, with his left fist wrapped in golden soul power, he charged fiercely at Tang San!

"Purple Demon Eye!"

"Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track!"

Tang San's eyes turned purple as he rushed to meet Li Jiutian!

The two fought intensely, but the gap in soul power could not be bridged; soon, Tang San was sent flying five meters away.

"Who exactly are you, and what grudge do you have against me!"

Tang San's face was pale, and he said with resentment.

"Hmph! When you meet the King of Hell, he'll naturally tell you who I am!"

"First Soul Skill, Vacuum Slash!"

Li Jiutian spread his brilliant Angel Wings and hovered in mid-air. Just as he was about to activate his soul skill, he caught sight of a familiar figure in the distance.

A perfect opportunity!

Taking advantage of Li Jiutian's distraction, Tang San quickly threw the four poison needles hidden in his palm at him!

"Sneak attacks are all you're good for!"

Li Jiutian shielded himself with his massive Angel Wings, and as they erupted in golden light, the poison needles were instantly deflected.

"Damn it, Tang San, consider yourself lucky today. We will meet again!"

Li Jiutian's eyes flashed with golden light, and he flew away, clearly unwilling to leave.

At this moment, a massive Clear Sky Hammer blocked the path in front of Tang San, the body of the hammer faintly emitting a red glow.

Tang San turned around, surprised: "Grandmaster, Father, why are you here?"

"Ever since that boy entered the academy, I felt something was wrong with him, so I sent people to track him!"

"When I saw him kidnap Xiao Wu and fly away from the academy, I found your father, and we came together to save you!"

"It's a good thing you're unharmed. By the way, where is Xiao Wu?"

Grandmaster said, panting slightly.

"Xiao Wu should have returned to Notting Academy by now!"

Tang San clutched his chest and stood up, clearly having sustained heavy injuries.

"That pair of wings... Grandmaster, I believe you know the identity of that boy now, don't you?"

Tang Hao watched Li Jiutian as he flew into the distance, a trace of anger flickering in his eyes.

"Those were Angel Wings; he is a man of Spirit Hall!"

Grandmaster responded with a grunt.

"Spirit Hall, I will settle my accounts with you sooner or later!" Tang Hao said coldly.

The next morning.

Spirit City.

Inside the main hall of the Elder Hall.

Damn it, I was just one step away. If that cursed Tang Hao hadn't rushed over, I would have killed Tang San last night!

Li Jiutian cursed inwardly, his frustration mounting the more he thought about the previous night.

"Little Tian, what are you thinking about? You seem distracted; why don't you tell your master?"

Qian Daoliu asked with a hint of confusion.

"It's nothing. By the way, Master, I haven't obtained my second soul ring yet. Do you have time today?"

Li Jiutian quickly changed the subject, flashing a grin.

"You little rascal, you really are impatient. Very well, I shall accompany you on this trip!"

Qian Daoliu said dotingly, then led Li Jiutian toward the Star Dou Great Forest.

The center of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Qian Daoliu and his companion chatted and laughed, as if they were merely strolling through their own backyard.
