Boom—!!!
The Sun-Moon Divine Needle locked onto Tang Hao below.
A pillar of Sun-Moon energy erupted and shot forth.
Like a spear of judgment cast down by the gods, it was unstoppable.
"Sun-Moon Divine Needle? What kind of wicked thing is that?!!"
Tang Hao was startled, but his eyes quickly turned blood-red, and he panted like an ox:
"No matter what it is, what can you do to me in front of my Clear Sky Hammer!!"
"Break for me, damn it!!!"
With a roar, Tang Hao swung his Clear Sky Hammer, lashing out with all his might at the beam of light.
Crack!!
But the moment they collided, the Clear Sky Hammer was easily shattered.
The might of the Sun-Moon energy did not diminish, continuing to shoot toward Tang Hao.
"How is this possible?!!"
Tang Hao was terrified, hurriedly turning to dodge.
But he was a beat too slow, and the energy pierced through his shoulder where his right arm connected!
Crack! Splat!!
Bones snapped and flesh tore, blood spraying wildly.
"Ahhhhh! My arm!!!"
Tang Hao's entire right arm was severed, blood gushing and splattering everywhere.
The entire arm, along with the inherited Soul Bone, flew off and slammed into the distance.
Without the support of the Soul Bone, the soul power within Tang Hao's body plummeted instantly.
Level ninety-three...
Level ninety-two...
Level ninety-one...
It fell until it had just barely entered the level of a Titled Douluo!
Just a little more, and he would have fallen out of the Titled Douluo rank!
"No!!"
Tang Hao clutched his severed arm, letting out a heart-wrenching wail.
"Serves you right!!"
Seeing this from inside the inn, Ye Han was overjoyed.
His gaze locked onto the severed arm bone that had flown off.
"Yo, loot actually dropped!"
"This trip for the rat really wasn't in vain!!"
The most valuable Soul Bones on Tang Hao were undoubtedly the two inherited from his sect.
The right arm bone and the left leg bone!
It was said that their combined value was no less than a hundred-thousand-year Soul Bone, and they were the key to his strength.
In the original story, after he crippled his own Soul Bones to return them to the sect, his soul power plummeted from level ninety-five to level seventy-five.
A full twenty levels!
That was the value of those two Soul Bones!
As for why he only dropped a few levels now despite losing one, it was simply because one level of soul power as a Titled Douluo was worth several levels at lower realms.
However, his foundation was effectively ruined; he would be stuck at this level for the rest of his life!
"Sinner Tang Hao, your crimes end here!"
Ye Guyi put away the Sun-Moon Divine Needle and walked toward Tang Hao, holding her holy sword.
"Oh... no!!"
Seeing this, Tang Hao was enveloped in endless fear.
At this moment, he was finally afraid!
Clutching his wound, he channeled his remaining soul power and fled in a pathetic state.
"You have nowhere to run!"
Ye Guyi flapped her six wings, preparing to give chase.
But as soon as she exerted force, her body faltered, and her pretty face turned pale.
Using two major level-nine soul tools in succession had nearly drained her soul power.
Although her level and Soul Rings had been upgraded by the "System," she had not been granted a Soul Core.
Therefore, her soul power reserves were no different from the Titled Douluo of this era.
"Damn it..."
She gritted her teeth, watching the direction Tang Hao disappeared in with deep unwillingness.
If she had a Soul Core to support her, she could have killed Tang Hao today!
"Well done, Sister Guyi!"
Ye Han ran out at this moment, picking up Tang Hao's severed arm and the right arm bone along the way.
"Xiao Han..."
Seeing him approach, Ye Guyi withdrew her gaze and sighed softly:
"It's a pity we couldn't kill that Tang Hao."
Ye Han smiled:
"It's okay, Sister Guyi, look at what this is?"
As he spoke, he presented the right arm bone of Tang Hao he had just picked up.
This right arm bone was pitch black, coming from a 78,000-year-old Mighty Gorilla!
The Mighty Gorilla was a top-tier power-type soul beast, and also the inherited Martial Soul of the Force Clan!
Trading one Sun-Moon Divine Needle for Tang Hao's severed arm and a Soul Bone was a massive profit!
Come to think of it, it was hilarious!
In just one short day, he had scammed Tang Hao out of everything!
First, his wife, the Blue Silver Emperor herself!
Second, his wife's legacy, the hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone!
Third, his son's dignity, his manhood!
Fourth, his son's future wife, the hundred-thousand-year Soft Bone Charming Rabbit, Xiao Wu!
Fifth, sixth, and seventh, his own right arm, his soul power level, and this 78,000-year Soul Bone!
And that wasn't all...
By taking Xiao Wu away, he indirectly prevented Tang San from meeting the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python.
After this, it would be impossible for Tang San to be sacrificed to by them and obtain their Soul Rings and Soul Bones.
This wave of losses had the Down syndrome father and son absolutely devastated!!!
"Tang Hao's right arm bone! Sigh..."
But as she spoke, Ye Guyi still sighed, feeling unreconciled.
She didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning was clear.
During the All-Continent Soul Master Tournament eight and a half years later, it was Tang Hao who broke into the arena to save Tang San.
If Tang Hao were killed, Tang San might have died, and Martial Soul Hall would not have reached the point of destruction.
Ye Han saw through her thoughts and shook his head:
"Sister Guyi, you want to kill him so badly, is it for the sake of Martial Soul Hall?"
"But in truth, even if you killed him, you couldn't change the fate of Martial Soul Hall."
"The destruction of Martial Soul Hall... Tang Hao is at most a pusher, not the true culprit."
Once these words were out.
"Not Tang Hao? How do you figure that?!!"
Ye Guyi turned her head sharply, her eyes full of shock:
"Historical records from later generations state that it was Tang Hao who killed the previous Pope, Qian Xunji."
"His beloved disciple, Bibi Dong, only inherited the position of Pope and started the war to avenge her mentor..."
In the original story, that seemed to be the case on the surface.
As a transmigrator, Ye Han naturally knew the inside story:
"Sister Guyi, history is written by the victors; the root cause is actually Bibi Dong herself!"
"It was she who killed Qian Xunji, plotting to unify the continent, then destroy the Angel Qian Clan and ruin Martial Soul Hall!"
"And even, destroy the entire world!!"
After hearing this, Ye Guyi's delicate body trembled, and she gasped in shock:
"Why would Bibi Dong kill her own teacher? Why would she do such a thing?!!"
Ye Han recounted the truth.
He started from the time Qian Xunji took Bibi Dong as his disciple...
He exhausted resources to cultivate her, yet she fell in love with that piece of trash, the Grandmaster, and wanted to elope with him.
Qian Xunji was furious and raped her, fathering a daughter, Qian Renxue, in an attempt to keep her that way.
From then on, hatred consumed Bibi Dong, and this hatred caused her to be favored by the Rakshasa God, who guided her toward destruction.
Later, Qian Xunji was severely injured by Tang Hao, and when he returned to recover, Bibi Dong took the opportunity to kill him, framing Tang Hao for the crime.
After that, she relied on her status as Qian Renxue's mother to sit on the Pope's throne, starting her layout to destroy the world...
At the end of his story, Ye Han didn't forget to add:
"So, Sister Guyi, regarding the question you asked me before."
"I am unwilling to join Martial Soul Hall precisely because that crazy woman is there!!"
"Even if you killed the Down syndrome father and son, that crazy woman would destroy Martial Soul Hall with her own hands!!"
(Note: Taken from the original Douluo Dalu, Chapter 712)
As his voice fell, the surroundings were deathly silent.
After hearing this, Ye Guyi's mind was in a storm, and she stood frozen in place.
Bibi Dong's ingratitude was sinful!
But Qian Xunji's rape of her was equally sinful!
The two ancestors she had believed in her whole life were actually so heinous!
Thinking about it now, it was truly ridiculous...
Ye Guyi's slender body trembled slightly, and for a long time, she couldn't say a word.
At this moment, she didn't know what to do.
She had originally thought that as long as she stopped Tang San and the others from growing up, she could change history.
She hadn't expected that the one she truly had to face was the current Pope of Martial Soul Hall, Bibi Dong!
That was an existence who had already accepted the Rakshasa God's trials!
She now held supreme power, and her strength was close to that of a Limit Douluo!
How could she face this now, relying on her own strength alone...
"Sister Guyi."
Ye Han saw through her thoughts, staring at her earnestly:
"You wanted to prevent the destruction of Martial Soul Hall from the very beginning, didn't you?!"
"I can help you, and together, we will oppose Bibi Dong in the future!!"
