Tang Sect and Shrek Academy's Reinforcements Arrive—All Who Invade the Stone Kingdom Shall Be Suppressed
He opened his mouth, wanting to persuade her further, but ultimately chose silence.
Porcupinefish Douluo beside him also looked at Qian Renxue, a trace of worry flashing through his eyes, but he ultimately said nothing either.
Thus, under the cover of Snake Spear Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo, Qian Renxue quietly hid in a dark corner at the edge of the plaza, silently watching events unfold.
The cheers in the plaza continued for a long while before gradually subsiding, and the soldiers' excitement briefly calmed as well.
Shi Hao stood atop the high eaves of the grand hall, looking down at the thousands upon thousands of Heaven Dou soldiers below. A faint smile remained on his face, as though everything were under his control.
Fairy Yuechan quietly stood guard at Shi Hao's side. She wore a moon-white gauze dress, its hem gently swaying like a fairy beneath the moonlight—cool and otherworldly. The lightness and purity of the white gauze dress seemed to mirror her heart, spotless and immaculate.
Her features were elegant, and her long hair was smooth as silk, drifting gently in the wind and lending her an even more ethereal, lively grace.
On the other side of the plaza...
Yang Wudi tightly supported the injured Tang San. Every step Tang San took seemed exceptionally heavy; his face was pale as paper, and cold sweat continuously dripped from his forehead, every drop speaking of his pain and unwillingness.
"Sect Master, your injuries are too severe." Yang Wudi's voice trembled slightly as he hurriedly urged, "I need to take you away to heal as soon as possible."
Yet Tang San seemed not to hear him. His gaze passed through the ruins of the grand hall and settled on the young man in dragon robes standing above it.
The young man was handsome, but his eyes carried an air of dominance and coldness.
Suddenly, Tang San spat out a mouthful of blood, staining the ground before him red. He raised his head again, his eyes filled with rage and resentment, his teeth grinding audibly as he roared furiously, "Shi Hao, you're truly this vicious? You'd rather leave my teacher without descendants? Once I, Tang San, recover, I'll never spare you..."
"Old Monster, Senior Yang Wudi." Tang San's voice became low and resolute again. "Don't worry about me for now. Hurry and save Teacher..."
Hearing this, Dugu Bo slowly raised his head and looked toward the figure above the grand hall. Helplessness and heaviness flashed through his eyes before he sighed. "I'm afraid that can't be done. That brat calling himself the Stone Emperor has a white-clad woman beside him whose strength is unfathomable. Elder Yang and I have just gone through a great battle and exhausted too much soul power. Even if the two of us joined forces now, we might not be a match for that woman in white."
As he spoke, his gaze unconsciously drifted toward the woman in white. She stood beside Shi Hao, dressed in white whiter than snow, with no expression on her face, yet she radiated a suffocating pressure.
Dugu Bo had once fought the Sacred Giant Dragon of the Golden Triangle, so he understood the power of this martial soul fusion skill well. Five years ago, the Golden Triangle could indeed only barely contend against a Title Douluo.
But he himself had no confidence in taking the Sacred Giant Dragon martial soul fusion skill the Golden Triangle had unleashed just now, while that woman in white had destroyed it with a single sword strike from several hundred meters away. Her strength could only be described as terrifying beyond measure.
"What?"
Hearing this, a trace of despair flashed through Tang San's eyes. He knew Dugu Bo's strength, and he understood the weight of those words.
If even Dugu Bo and Yang Wudi together were no match for that woman in white, then they truly might be doomed today.
Yang Wudi frowned tightly. He glanced at the despairing Tang San beside him, his tone firm and decisive. "Sect Master, there's no need to worry. The urgent matter is to find the Fourth Prince, Xue Beng, and have him personally expose this fake Stone Emperor's identity."
After saying that, Yang Wudi turned around, his sharp gaze sweeping across the crowded outskirts of the plaza.
However, at that moment, bursts of noisy clamor suddenly came from the distant horizon.
The sounds gradually grew clearer, like an army of thousands charging toward them. "Little San, Dean, Aunt Erlong, we're here..." Shouts rose one after another, filled with excitement and anticipation.
At that instant, a relieved smile blossomed across Tang San's face, one born from the depths of his heart.
He looked into the distance as though he could already see those familiar figures. He immediately shouted, "The reinforcements from Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect have arrived!"
As the voices drew closer, several figures gradually appeared beyond the distant palace perimeter. At the front were Shrek Academy's experts, along with elders such as Titan, Niu Gao, and Bai He. Every one of them radiated a powerful aura.
Seeing this, Tang San cried out excitedly, "Fatty, Boss Dai, hurry and save Teacher and the Dean..." His voice echoed through the plaza, filled with urgency and hope.
Hearing Tang San's call, the figures in the distance accelerated, racing toward Tang San and the others.
Ma Hongjun arrived first. He beat a pair of enormous flaming wings, like a phoenix descending upon the mortal world. Flying over the heads of the many soldiers in the plaza, his eyes burned with blazing fury.
When he saw Yu Xiaogang lying helplessly on the cold floor beneath the grand hall like an old dog, intense anger and grief surged within him.
Ma Hongjun hesitated no longer. He took a deep breath and mobilized the soul power within his body. With an angry roar, the Phoenix Meteor Shower descended from the heavens.
Scorching fireballs streaked across the sky like meteors. Carrying destructive force, they smashed into the soldiers and instantly sent them fleeing in all directions.
Immediately afterward, Dai Mubai also leaped forward, his figure landing steadily in the plaza outside the palace hall.
"White Tiger Meteor Shower..."
Dai Mubai clenched both fists tightly as soul power surged wildly through his body. With a swing of his right fist, an invisible force suddenly erupted, and countless streaks of light tore through the sky, rushing toward the soldiers with destructive force.
Wherever the streaks of light passed, soldiers were sent crashing down. Some were pierced through their bodies, while others had their internal organs shattered by the impact. This White Tiger Meteor Shower alone felled more than a hundred soldiers.
Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, Oscar, Bai Chenxiang, Qin Ming, Zhao Wuji, as well as Titan, Niu Gao, Bai He, and the others arrived shortly afterward. Behind them followed a large group of Tang Sect disciples dressed in uniforms.
Faced with the situation in the plaza, the Tang Sect disciples stepped forward one after another and drew Zhuge Divine Crossbows from their waists.
As a series of mechanical clicks rang out, crossbow bolts shot forth like cannon shells leaving their barrels.
The bolts traced elegant arcs through the air before accurately striking the soldiers in the distance. Each bolt contained immense penetrating power, easily piercing through the soldiers' armor and bodies.
As the bolts continued to fire, a vast swath of soldiers in the distance was struck down.
The Tang Sect disciples' arrival rapidly tipped the battle. The nearly ten thousand Heaven Dou soldiers gathered beside the grand hall, faced with these Tang Sect disciples armed with hidden weapons, were beaten so thoroughly that they could not fight back at all.
In a secluded corner outside the plaza, Qian Renxue quietly watched everything happening within the plaza. Her face was pale and weak, yet her exquisite features and peerless beauty could not conceal her nobility and icy allure.
Seeing the Tang Sect and Shrek reinforcements arrive, a cold smile could not help appearing on Qian Renxue's beautiful, pale face. Looking in Shi Hao's direction, she said with some delight at his misfortune.
"Shi Hao, let's see what you do now. If you can't hold onto that throne, then it'll be time for me, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, to make an appearance..."
