"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul Avatar..."

At that moment, Huyan Zhen let out an angry roar. His voice echoed through the rubble like thunder as his seventh Soul Ring lit up, its radiance enveloping his entire body. His aura instantly grew far more powerful.

Huyan Zhen's body began to expand. His muscles bulged, his skin hardened like iron, and his hands transformed into enormous elephant hooves. Thick elephant hide grew across his body, while his face twisted into something savage. His eyes turned crimson, as if they could spit fire at any moment.

In the end, Huyan Zhen transformed directly into a gigantic Diamond Mammoth standing seven meters tall, as massive as a small mountain. Powerful light radiated from his thick hide.

In this state, Huyan Zhen's strength and defense were both astonishingly powerful.

Even a Title Douluo—even a level 95 Title Douluo like Chrysanthemum Douluo or Ghost Douluo—would have a tremendous headache facing Huyan Zhen, the Elephant Armor Sect's leader, after he activated his Martial Soul Avatar.

Unfortunately for him, he had encountered Fairy Yuechan at the peak of the Array Formation Realm.

Just how powerful was Fairy Yuechan at the peak of the Array Formation Realm on this Douluo Continent?

Shi Hao was not entirely sure either, but by his judgment, Fairy Yuechan at the peak of the Array Formation Realm should have no trouble defeating level 97 Jian Daochenxin.

If she unleashed her full strength and used the Heaven Mending Technique and the incomplete True Dragon Divine Technique, then even Tang Chen at level 99, wielding the Asura Divine Sword, likely would not be her match.

Facing Huyan Zhen as he charged toward her like a small mountain, Fairy Yuechan showed no fear. She drew the emerald-green longsword at her waist once more. Cold light flashed across its blade, as though it could slice through every obstacle.

Fairy Yuechan lightly pressed off the ground, and her entire body floated gracefully into the air like a willow catkin. Her figure was exquisite, her long hair danced in the wind, and she looked like a goddess descending from the ninth heaven.

In midair, she swung her emerald-green longsword and shouted, "A Sword From the West!"

As her shout fell, Fairy Yuechan's aura surged explosively. The emerald-green longsword in her hand seemed to sense its master's resolve, and its blade erupted with even more dazzling radiance.

Sword qi crisscrossed the air like a heaven-shaking rainbow tearing through the sky, charging toward Huyan Zhen with endless killing intent.

Huyan Zhen's aged face filled with terror. He immediately activated the Diamond Mammoth True Form for defense. His body grew even larger, and his skin gleamed with cold, metallic luster, like an impregnable fortress of steel.

Yet Fairy Yuechan was not intimidated by Huyan Zhen's defenses. The emerald-green longsword in her hand shot forward, its tip flashing with icy light, as if it could pierce through all obstructions.

"Bang..."

The powerful sword qi instantly shattered Huyan Zhen's Diamond Mammoth True Form defense. That steel fortress with its astonishing defensive power was as fragile as paper before Fairy Yuechan's sword qi.

The sword qi pierced through Huyan Zhen's body, and the tremendous impact made him let out a miserable howl on the spot.

That howl sounded like an enraged giant elephant on the verge of death—shrill and despairing.

Huyan Zhen's eyes were filled with fear and unwillingness. He could not believe that even after using his strongest defense, he had still been defeated by a young woman barely twenty years old.

The brutal sword qi had pierced his body, making him feel pain and helplessness unlike anything he had ever known.

The next second, Huyan Zhen's enormous body crashed to the ground. He was forced back into his original form and slammed heavily into the earth, kicking up a cloud of dust. In the distant forest, the Elephant Armor Sect's elite disciples who had already lost their ability to fight could hardly believe what they were seeing.

Their invincible sect leader, Huyan Zhen, had actually been easily defeated by a beautiful woman. It was simply unimaginable.

Fairy Yuechan drifted lightly down from the air and put away her emerald-green longsword. Her beautiful face remained cold and proud, as though none of it had ever happened.

Looking at Fairy Yuechan's captivating back, Shi Hao, seated in the Golden Soul Guidance Car, could not help clapping his hands and smiling.

"My Yuechan, you've worked hard..."

It was clear that Fairy Yuechan at this time was still rather softhearted. She had deliberately avoided Huyan Zhen's vital points with that strike.

Had that sword been aimed at Huyan Zhen's head, the Elephant Armor Sect leader would have died on the spot.

Whatever. To Shi Hao, whether Huyan Zhen lived or died was of no use at all. He had never planned to side with Bibi Dong. He wanted to become Human Emperor himself.

That was right. This time, upon returning to Heaven Dou City, Shi Hao intended to seize imperial power himself and become the Tiandou Empire's new Human Emperor.

As for Qian Renxue, if she was willing, he could let her be his empress...

But handing the throne over to her? That was impossible.

Although Shi Hao knew that if he wanted to seize the throne and become the new Human Emperor, he would have to face Shrek Academy and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, including Tang San.

But he was not afraid, because he had Fairy Yuechan and the Willow Deity.

Even combined, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo might not be able to defeat Fairy Yuechan.

It was probably impossible. After all, as the Heaven Mending Sect's saintess, Fairy Yuechan might also know the Heaven Mending Technique. If she used it, even Qian Daoliu might not be enough.

Fairy Yuechan could hold back Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, while Shi Hao would naturally summon his future wife, the Willow Deity, to deal with the other enemies...

Although Fairy Yuechan alone might have been enough to sweep through every enemy, Shi Hao still wanted to see his future wife, the Willow Deity. So even if he could win, he would pretend that he could not and have his wife, the Willow Deity, act once more.

Besides, only with the Willow Deity descending upon the Tiandou Empire's imperial capital could Shi Hao become Human Emperor more smoothly.

"This is the plan for returning to Heaven Dou City. Once I, Shi Hao, become Human Emperor, I will challenge the gods of the God Realm..."

Thinking of this, Shi Hao could not help raising his head to look at the dark firmament.

That was right. Human Emperor was not his true goal. His true goal was to become, like Huang, a Heavenly Emperor who reigned alone through eternity.

After making up his mind, Shi Hao pushed off with his foot and instantly transformed into a streak of light, appearing before the utterly miserable Huyan Zhen.

Huyan Zhen's eyes widened as he stared at Shi Hao, who had suddenly appeared before him, as though he were looking at a monster. His chest had been pierced by sword qi, destroying his tough defenses, and blood was pouring from the wound. He pressed down on it with all his strength, his mouth hanging wide open as he said in a trembling voice.

"You... who exactly are you? Could the woman beside you be a Super Douluo above level 96?"

After saying this, Huyan Zhen's huge body could not help trembling.

Too terrifying. Too terrifying—a Super Douluo so young...

She might even be a level 99 Peak Douluo.

Huyan Zhen no longer dared to think further. He was nearly scared senseless.

Shi Hao looked at Huyan Zhen's aged face, twisted with terror, and said coldly.

"Killing you would be as easy as killing a dog. But since my wife thinks killing you would dirty her hands, I'll give you a chance. I'll return your earlier words to you exactly as they were. If you hand over every treasure and Gold Soul Coin on you, then obediently kneel and kowtow a hundred times, calling me Grandpa Shi Hao a hundred times, I'll spare your life..."

"What? You want me, Huyan Zhen, to call you Grandpa Shi Hao a hundred times? Impossible..."

Huyan Zhen's voice was filled with rage and unwillingness. He was a sect leader, a renowned powerhouse of the continent. How could he possibly bow to a brat not even eighteen years old?

However, Shi Hao gave him no chance to argue. He viciously stomped on Huyan Zhen's aged face with such force that it seemed he intended to crush his skull.

"Aah..."

Huyan Zhen let out a miserable scream. Amid the intense pain, he felt his life rapidly slipping away. He understood that if he did not obey this brat, he might truly die here.

So Huyan Zhen hurriedly changed his tone and cried out, "Grandpa Shi Hao, Grandpa Shi Hao, I was wrong, I was wrong! I'll give you all my treasures and Gold Soul Coins right now." His voice was filled with pleading and fear.

Shi Hao looked at him coldly, without the slightest expression on his face. He extended a hand, signaling for Huyan Zhen to hand over every treasure and Gold Soul Coin he possessed.

Huyan Zhen did not dare hesitate in the slightest. He spat out a mouthful of old blood, then painfully removed the Soul Tool ring from his hand and held it out to Shi Hao with both hands. His movements were extremely cautious, afraid of displeasing this young demon king.

Shi Hao took the Soul Tool ring and swept it with his spiritual power. He found that it indeed contained the entire fortune of the Elephant Armor Sect leader.

He put away the Soul Tool ring, glanced at the miserable-looking Huyan Zhen, and curled his lips into a cold smile.

"Good, Huyan Zhen. I'll be leaving now with my Yuechan. But since you acknowledge me as Grandpa Shi Hao, then kneel there and keep shouting for a while. Keep shouting until I can no longer hear your voice. Do you understand?"

"What?"

Huyan Zhen's eyes bulged as though they were about to pop from their sockets. His chest heaved violently, revealing the rage and humiliation in his heart.

As the Elephant Armor Sect leader, he had never suffered such humiliation in his life. But when he thought of the sect's future, he could only swallow his anger. Clenching his teeth, he braced both hands against the ground and shakily rose to his feet before slowly kneeling in front of Shi Hao.

Huyan Zhen's broad hands clenched tightly together, as if he were desperately suppressing the rage and humiliation in his heart.

Shi Hao smiled faintly, a trace of contempt on his face. He turned around with ease and said to Fairy Yuechan, who stood nearby, "All right, Yuechan. Let's get in the car."

Fairy Yuechan frowned and shot Shi Hao an embarrassed, angry glance. She found it rather baffling. How had she somehow become this fellow's wife without even realizing it?

But remembering that she would need this fellow's help to leave this world in the future, she lightly bit her lip and obediently followed behind Shi Hao toward the golden Soul Guidance Car parked not far away.

The Soul Guidance Car had a peculiar shape. A faint golden glow covered its surface, flickering with enchanting light. Its wheels were made of an unknown material, extremely sturdy and capable of automatically adjusting their height to suit different terrain.

Shi Hao got into the Soul Guidance Car first, then turned and extended a hand toward Fairy Yuechan.

Fairy Yuechan bit her lip and hesitantly extended her jade-like hand. Shi Hao gently took it and gave a light pull, helping her into the car.

The carriage interior was spacious and comfortable, lavishly decorated like a tiny palace.

"Grandpa Shi Hao, Grandpa Shi Hao, Grandpa Shi Hao, Grandpa Shi Hao, travel safely..."

As the golden Soul Guidance Car started up, Huyan Zhen did not dare slack off in the slightest. He hurriedly covered the wound on his chest and slammed his forehead into the ground before him. Each time he kowtowed, he shouted, "Grandpa Shi Hao."

He continued kowtowing and shouting until the golden Soul Guidance Car had completely disappeared from view.

Huyan Zhen finally could not endure any longer. With a thud, he collapsed face-down on the ground, panting heavily with his tongue hanging out like an old dog.

After a while, several Elephant Armor Sect disciples finally emerged from the distant forest. Their clothes were ragged, and their faces showed fear and exhaustion. Clearly, they were badly injured as well.

They staggered over and worked together to help Huyan Zhen up from the ground.

"Sect Leader, are you all right?"

One disciple asked carefully.

In response, Huyan Zhen viciously slapped the disciple across the face. His aged face twitched, clearly from the unbearable pain of the wound in his chest. He pressed hard against it and roared, "What the hell kind of question is that? Do I look all right? Hurry up and take me to Spirit City for treatment! I'm reporting this to His Holiness the Pope. I want His Holiness to thoroughly investigate the background of that young demon king, Shi Hao..."
