Tang Hao's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly stuffed Cinderella from his arms into the arms of A Yin, who had just given birth.
"A Yin! Take the children and go!"
As soon as the words fell, Tang Hao instantly summoned the massive Clear Sky Hammer. Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black—eight Spirit Rings erupted with overwhelming ferocity. Like a maddened lion, he charged fiercely at Qian Xunji and the others.
Tang Hao was only an eighty-ninth-level Soul Douluo, while Qian Xunji was already a Super Douluo. With several Title Douluo joining the siege, all he could do now was buy A Yin a little time.
Boom!
The violent collision of spirit power tore the tent to pieces.
Holding the swaddled Tang San and Cinderella, A Yin looked back at Tang Hao before turning into a streak of light and racing out of the valley.
"Stubborn fool."
Qian Xunji snorted coldly, and the black Spirit Ring on his body lit up.
"Angelic Holy Sword."
A dazzling golden holy sword shot toward A Yin, who had transformed into a streak of light.
Sensing the scorching danger behind her, the Blue Silver Grass covering the mountains and plains grew wildly, forming layer upon layer of shields behind A Yin.
However, how could Qian Xunji's Angelic Holy Sword possibly be blocked by ordinary Blue Silver Grass?
Feeling the layers of Blue Silver Grass shattering, A Yin's face turned deathly pale, and her eyes filled with despair.
She knew she could not escape.
How could a Soul Sage like her possibly flee before several Title Douluo?
"Martial Soul Hall scum, die!"
In order to reach A Yin, Tang Hao forcibly endured a strike from a Title Douluo.
He unleashed all the spirit power in his body.
A black Spirit Ring lit up, then instantly exploded, generating enormous spirit power for him.
The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand instantly grew incomparably massive, blocking the attack before him.
A Yin, holding the infants and Cinderella, was blasted to the ground by the enormous shockwave created when the Angelic Holy Sword collided with the Clear Sky Hammer.
Her face was pale as death, her eyes filled with despair.
"Killing God Domain, activate."
Tang Hao, who had taken Qian Xunji's attack head-on, did not give up. Looking at the surrounding Title Douluo, his eyes were filled with unwillingness.
He shoved A Yin into the distance, and his remaining seven Spirit Rings lit up simultaneously.
"A Yin, run!"
Tears fell from A Yin's eyes as she watched the berserk spirit power raging around Tang Hao.
She knew Tang Hao intended to create a chance for her to escape through self-destruction.
"No—!!!" A Yin let out a shrill, resolute cry of grief.
Using the last of her strength, she absorbed all the power of the Blue Silver Grass throughout the valley. Then she lowered her head and placed two gentle kisses, filled with boundless love and the essence of life, upon Tang San and Cinderella's foreheads.
"Brother Hao—! You must take good care of our two children."
A Yin's voice carried a blood-soaked plea. Her gaze lingered endlessly on the bloodied Tang Hao before turning infinitely gentle as she looked at the two children in her arms.
The next moment, incomparably brilliant crimson light erupted from her body.
Qian Xunji was utterly shocked by the scene before him.
"Stop her, now!"
Gui Mei and Yue Guan exchanged a glance.
"Bipolar Static Domain."
Golden light and black radiance instantly merged, forming a taiji diagram that hovered above A Yin.
However, once a soul beast began a sacrifice, it could not be stopped. Even a Martial Soul fusion skill at the Title Douluo level could not interrupt A Yin's sacrifice.
A Yin's body transformed into countless dancing Blue Silver Grass vines, instantly wrapping Tang San and Cinderella into a sturdy blue cocoon of light.
Her own life essence transformed into the purest, most boundless crimson torrent, carrying the resolve to sacrifice everything as it surged into Tang Hao's body!
"A Yin—!!!"
Tang Hao's eyes split with rage as he let out a heart-rending roar.
The blue cocoon protected the two children, isolating them from every terrifying impact outside.
Curled up inside the cocoon, Cinderella's azure eyes were wide open. She clearly watched A Yin turn into motes of light and scatter away, and she felt A Yin's final life force and power flow into Tang Hao's body.
Everything that had happened filled Cinderella with uncontrollable fury.
This damned luck!
She had been incredibly unlucky in the fairy-tale world, yet even after coming to this new world, she was still this unlucky.
Cinderella did not believe Tang Hao, even after receiving A Yin's sacrifice, could defeat the remaining Title Douluo. All she could do now was wait for the system's life-protection mechanism to ensure that she would not die next.
Boom—!!!
Having absorbed the power of A Yin's sacrifice, Tang Hao's aura surged instantly. That crimson 100,000-Year Spirit Ring burst forth with unprecedented radiance.
Like a demon god returned from hell, his eyes were blood-red as he swung the Clear Sky Hammer, now several times larger, and smashed it madly toward the horrified Qian Xunji and the others with world-destroying force.
"Martial Soul Hall! I'll make you pay in blood!!!"
Amid the earth-shaking explosion, two Title Douluo were sent flying by the hammer on the spot.
Qian Xunji also suffered severe injuries, coughing up blood as he flew backward.
Taking advantage of the brief chaos and the moment his enemies were stunned, Tang Hao endured the soul-rending pain and towering hatred. He grabbed the blue cocoon protecting the two children from the ground and transformed into a crimson meteor, charging into the vast mountains without looking back.
While Cinderella followed Tang Hao on their flight for survival, Queen Eva was in the Heaven Dou Empire's palace chambers, toying with the Magic Mirror in her hand.
Unlike other fairy-tale characters, who still needed time to develop, because of her own initiative, she had possessed the cultivation of a Soul Douluo the moment she was summoned.
A Soul Douluo was considered high-level combat power in the current Douluo Continent, so she was not particularly enthusiastic about increasing her strength.
Instead, her heart was filled with a desire for power. In the fairy-tale world, she had been the queen of a kingdom, with inexhaustible power and wealth.
Therefore, after arriving in Douluo Continent, she still wished to continue living that lavish, decadent life.
Thus, Eva immediately set her sights on the two most powerful empires of Douluo Continent.
The Star Dou Empire's imperial Dai Clan possessed the Evil-Eyed White Tiger Martial Soul, which could be considered a top-tier beast Martial Soul. The strength of its emperors throughout the generations could reach the level of a Title Douluo.
Furthermore, due to their Martial Soul fusion skill, they had intermarried with the Zhu Clan for generations.
They were practically an impenetrable fortress, and the Zhu Clan's position as empress was secure and difficult to shake.
Therefore, Eva decisively set her sights on the Heaven Dou Empire.
The Heaven Dou Empire's imperial Martial Soul was the swan. Its grade was not particularly high, so its strength was not particularly formidable either.
The Heaven Dou Empire's emperor, Snow Night, possessed the cultivation of a Soul Douluo, just like Eva.
But in Eva's eyes, Snow Night was nothing to fear. How could strength piled up with heavenly treasures compare to her, a master of black magic?
Eva was brimming with confidence. She believed that, when the time came, she only needed to use a few simple black magic spells to easily secure the position of queen.
