If We Must Break Ties, So Be It. The Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Will Be Ours!

"So be it if we break ties," Chen Xin said coldly. "As long as we firmly hold the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone in our own hands, we can bear all the consequences."

Ning Fengzhi clapped his hands in agreement. "Uncle Jian is right. Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is determined to obtain the Soul Ring and Soul Bone of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast."

He suppressed his smile, turned a serious expression to Chen Xin and Gu Rong, and solemnly ordered, "Pass down the order to mobilize all our undercover agents and closely monitor Tang Hao's every move in the coming days, pinpointing all his routes and hideouts."

"We'll lay a tight net, and when the time is perfectly ripe, we'll strike with lightning speed and capture that Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast in one fell swoop! This battle can only end in victory; failure is not an option!"

"As long as we acquire this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and this Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School's combat power will surely reach a new level. Moreover, whether Uncle Jian fuses with the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone or Uncle Gu absorbs it, it will be enough to bring about a qualitative leap in the strength of the two of you. At that time, who in the world can shake our sect?"

Ning Fengzhi speaking, he slowly stood up, walked out of the magnificent hall, and leaned on the railing to overlook the bustling Seven Treasure City.

A gentle breeze ruffled his robes, and a playful smile appeared at the corner of his eye, "Speaking of which, Tang Hao's luck is truly enviable. Traveling across the continent for training, he actually managed to casually hook up with a Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast. How interesting."

"Unfortunately, no matter how good its luck is, this Transformed Soul Beast's final destination is destined to be our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Inside the hall, Chen Xin sighed softly, "It's fortunate that the Spirit Hall's lackeys are temporarily blinded and haven't noticed anything amiss. Otherwise, given the Spirit Hall's modus operandi, we would have had a real hard time snatching anything from them."

If the Spirit Hall discovered this, how could such an opportunity possibly fall to their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?!

What they didn't know was that the Spirit Hall had already succeeded once before, and the target now was none other than the Supreme Pontiff Consort of the Spirit Hall.

No one knew it, because when Qian Xunji brought Ah Yin back to the Spirit Hall, Qian Daoliu used the Angel Divine Power to help Ah Yin conceal the aura of the Soul Beast.

Later on, Ah Yin even became Soul Sage, needing no disguise and becoming no different from a normal person.

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, in a quiet and secluded primeval forest.

Towering ancient trees blocked out the sun, and clear stream water flowed slowly along the jagged rocks.

Having just finished a period of training, Tang Hao and A Zhi were setting up camp here, making a fire and resting.

They had no idea that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect already knew A Zhi's identity and was preparing to take action against them, especially since it was two Titled Douluo were renowned throughout the continent who were hunting them down!

If Tang Hao knew that this had attracted the covetousness of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, he would definitely escort A Zhi back to the Clear Sky Sect without hesitation.

Faced with the temptation of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone, Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Bone Douluo Gu Rong will undoubtedly go all out.

Even with his unparalleled talent, Tang Hao was still only a High-Rank Soul Douluo at the moment. Facing a renowned titled expert, he couldn't possibly protect A Zhi on his own.

Moreover, Tang Hao is still completely unaware that the gentle beauty who has captivated him at first sight and made vows of eternal love to him is actually a human form transformed from a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

The campfire flickered in the woods, illuminating Tang Hao's sharply defined face. His brows were furrowed, and his gaze warily swept across the dark forest around him.

"Ah Hao, what's wrong? You look so pale." A Zhi, sitting beside him, asked softly with concern when she saw Tang Hao's solemn and preoccupied expression.

Tang Hao raised his hand to rub his temples and gently waved his hand, saying, "I don't know why, but since just now, I've had an inexplicably strong sense of crisis rising in my heart. I feel like there's some danger approaching from the shadows."

Upon hearing this, A Zhi covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes crinkling as she comforted her, "A sense of crisis? Didn't you tell me before that your Clear Sky Sect possesses the unparalleled Ring Detonation Technique, which, once unleashed, would allow you to instantly transcend levels and unleash combat power comparable to Titled Douluo?"

A Zhi was completely dependent on the man beside her.

During the time she spent by Tang Hao's side, she experienced an unprecedented sense of security and peace of mind. Tang Hao's domineering strength was her strongest shield.

"That's true, but this sudden, unprovoked feeling of unease is indeed a bit too abrupt." Tang Hao smiled with relief, temporarily dispelling the gloom in his heart, and a sense of pride welled up within him. "Never mind, let's not worry about it. On this continent, if we really encounter some blind danger, do you think I, Tang Hao, would just let myself be slaughtered?"

"With my current strength, if it comes to a life-or-death situation and all eight of my rings explode simultaneously, the power will be earth-shattering. Even if the Pope the Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji, were to come in person, he would be no match for me!"

At this point, Tang Hao suddenly thought of Ah Yin. If he had possessed his current strength back then, would Ah Yin have hadn't had to leave with Qian Xunji?

Would she then not have become Qian Xunji's wife?

It's a pity, but no matter what, it's useless. Ah Yin has become the Supreme Pontiff Consort and has even borne children for Qian Xunji.

However, he has gradually let go of Ah Yin now. Perhaps the hurt he suffered back then was too great, which is why he still thinks of Ah Yin who was taken away by Qian Xunji from time to time.

After A Zhi came into his life, he no longer thought about Ah Yin every day.

"Ah Hao, what are you thinking about again?" A Zhi asked Tang Hao with a puzzled look.

"It's nothing, just thinking about an old friend," Tang Hao said casually. He couldn't very well admit that he was thinking about other women, could he?

Even if he were incredibly stupid or clueless, he would know that he should never mention another woman in front of a woman.

"A Zhi, I have a bad feeling. What if we encounter the Clear Sky Sect soon?" Tang Hao said to A Zhi with a sincere expression.

"Back to the Clear Sky Sect?" A Zhi hesitated upon hearing this. "Do we really have to go back, Haotian Sect?!"

"Yes, let's go back. I have a bad feeling about this, a feeling that's really too strong. Let's go back. The people of the Clear Sky Sect are all very nice, don't worry."

"Okay." A Zhi gave Tang Hao a deep look. "A-Hao, when you return to the Clear Sky Sect, you will protect me, right?!"

"Of course!" Tang Hao said, then asked doubtfully, "A Zhi, why do you say that? There are no bad people in the Clear Sky Sect."

"Besides, I am the next sect leader. How can I not protect the woman I love? If I cannot even protect the woman I love, then what difference is there between me Tang Hao, and a piece of trash?!"

"Don't worry, A Zhi, even if I die, I won't let you get hurt!" Tang Hao said, looking at A Zhi with deep affection.

"Ah Hao, you're so kind. I promise, let's go back to the Clear Sky Sect in a while." A Zhi nestled in Tang Hao's arms.
