Gu Rong's Suspicion

"Even the Titled Douluo of Spirit Hall had mobilized in full force, and Heaven Dou City was filled with their spies. If she, a mere ordinary person, wanted to save us, her first thought should have been to hide us. Yet she insisted on keeping us in this side hall..."

Gu Rong gritted his teeth so hard they nearly cracked, his entire body trembling.

"I don't trust her. I don't trust anyone! Go bring Tang Hao and his son here!"

Titan was stunned by the wariness in Gu Rong's eyes.

Having lived a second life, he also understood that one must always be wary of others. He immediately stopped wasting words, flashed back into the secret chamber, scooped up the unconscious Tang Hao and Tang San, and hurried back.

"Old Gu, I brought them! How are we getting out of here?!"

"Space... random teleportation!"

Gu Rong let out a shrill roar.

His body, already running low on Soul Power, was forcibly drained at that moment.

His meridians burst inch by inch, blood pouring from his seven orifices. Gu Rong forcibly used his remaining Soul Power to tear open an extremely unstable spatial rift.

He could not even sense the destination. Acting purely on instinct, he wrapped the three others up and plunged headfirst into that pitch-black spatial passage.

A hundred li south of Tian Dou Imperial City, within a desolate field of jagged rocks.

The void suddenly rippled violently like the surface of water, then split open into a black fissure.

Four figures tumbled out of the void in a sorry state, crashing heavily into the piles of rubble.

"Cough, cough... pfft!"

Five-year-old Tang San felt as if his entire body had fallen apart. The instant he hit the ground, the pain from his already fractured body made cold sweat pour down his face, and he spat out a mouthful of blood with a pale little face.

But he had no time to worry about his own injuries. Enduring the agonizing pain, he struggled to look to the side.

Bone Douluo Gu Rong lay flat on his back amid the shattered stones, his eyes tightly shut and his face deathly pale. His clothes had already been dyed red by the blood seeping from his body.

Because he had forcibly activated spatial teleportation beyond his limits, his Soul Power had now been completely exhausted. His meridians were severely damaged, and he had fallen into a deep coma.

Tang Hao beside him was unconscious as well.

"Old Gu! Master! Young Master!"

Titan was the only one uninjured.

He climbed to his feet and looked at the two heavily wounded, unconscious Titled Douluo beside him, as well as Tang San, who was covered in wounds. He was so anxious that he stamped his feet.

"Damn it! Old Gu forcibly used random teleportation. He never had time to say where we should meet Master Ning... Now, we really are homeless dogs!"

Titan was drenched in sweat.

He knew he could not simply sit and wait for death. Spirit Hall's people could track them down at any moment.

"Grandpa Titan..." Tang San spoke weakly.

"We... can't stay here."

"Rest assured, Young Master. This old servant understands!"

Titan gritted his teeth, hoisted the heavily wounded and unconscious Gu Rong onto his left shoulder, carried Tang Hao on his back, and carefully held five-year-old Tang San in his right arm.

"We can't return to Tian Dou Imperial City. This old servant will take you to Longxing City and seek refuge with Niu Gao of the Defensive Clan! That old fellow's fortress has astonishing defenses, and he also has excellent channels for healing medicines. He will definitely be able to save Master and Bone Douluo!"

Having made up his mind, Titan immediately relied on his extraordinary physique and began sprinting wildly, stumbling over uneven ground.

Whenever he passed a secluded rock wall or ancient tree, he used the unique method of his Vigorous Gorilla martial soul to carve the secret signal agreed upon by the Four Single-Attribute Clans in their previous life, hoping that the reborn clansmen would see it.

Heaven Dou City, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School Branch.

"Huff... huff... huff..."

Yu Xiaogang was drenched in sweat, his face and body covered in mud.

After being reborn, he had gone to Holy Spirit Village, only to find the blacksmith shop collapsed.

He had chased after them to the Power Clan estate, only to find ruins.

When he rushed to the Seven Treasure Branch, all that remained here were broken walls and rubble as well.

"I... I was too late again!"

Yu Xiaogang collapsed helplessly to his knees at a street corner amid the ruins, painfully clutching his hair. His stiff face was filled with madness and despair.

"No, it isn't over yet! Little San must still be alive!"

Grandmaster drew a cold breath and forced himself to calm down.

"The Power Clan is gone, and the Seven Treasure Branch has been ransacked. There is only one place within Heaven Dou City that Gu Rong could take them... Yue Xuan!"

He staggered to his feet, ignored his exhaustion, and once again rushed madly toward Yue Xuan.

Meanwhile, in the heart of Tian Dou Imperial City, inside a private room of a luxurious restaurant secretly reserved by Spirit Hall.

The table was laden with delicacies from land and sea, while Ye Yuan sat at the head of it, eating heartily.

"Ye Yuan, try this. These are Snow Jade Lotus Root Slices, a Tian Dou specialty. They're crisp, sweet, and delicious."

Bibi Dong sat to his right and, with complete naturalness, picked up a slice of lotus root and brought it to Ye Yuan's lips. Her body was almost leaning against his, her astonishingly full curves pressed tightly against his arm.

Qian Renxue, seated on his left, was unwilling to be outdone.

She appeared to be drinking tea elegantly, but beneath the table, her smooth jade feet had stealthily slipped out of their shoes. Her white-stockinged toes lightly rubbed against Ye Yuan's trouser leg, even slowly creeping upward.

Qian Renxue stared directly at Bibi Dong with her beautiful eyes, filled with smug provocation.

With Bibi Dong's cultivation, a sweep of her spiritual power immediately revealed Qian Renxue's little movements beneath the table.

Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. Her other jade hand beneath the table suddenly caressed Ye Yuan's thigh, her fingertips carrying the warmth of a trace of Rakshasa Spirit Power as they lightly stroked him.

"Gasp!"

Ye Yuan sucked in a sharp breath. Trapped between them, with the Divine Angel's feet teasing him on the left and the Rakshasa Pope's jade hand caressing him on the right, he felt heat surge through his body as his mind went blank.

I'm doomed! Why are these two fighting under the table?!

Just as Ye Yuan was about to suffer internal injuries from holding it in, the private room door was gently pushed open. Ghost Douluo Guimei walked in with an odd expression and presented a secret letter.

"Reporting to Your Holiness the Pope, Your Highness the Holy Son. Tang Yuehua, mistress of Heaven Dou's Yue Xuan, has just sent someone with a secret letter. It says... Tang Hao and his son, along with the crippled Gu Rong, are currently hiding on the second floor of Yue Xuan. She is willing to hand them over with both hands, asking only... to meet Your Highness the Holy Son."

The moment those words were spoken, the temperature in the private room plummeted.

The gentleness on Bibi Dong's face instantly turned to frost. She sneered.

"Tang Yuehua? That woman from the Clear Sky School who was born with a useless body? Does she deserve to covet my Ye Yuan?"

Qian Renxue directly withdrew her troublesome white-stockinged jade foot from beneath the table. Her stunning face was filled with intense jealousy and killing intent as she stared fixedly at Ye Yuan.

"Ye Yuan, tell me honestly. Just how many women have you provoked? Even that woman from the Clear Sky School is desperately willing to sell out her own brother just to see you!"

Ye Yuan froze in place with his chopsticks in hand, completely dumbfounded.

What the hell??? Tang Yuehua sold out Tang San just to see me once! Who did I provoke in this life?!

Outside Yue Xuan.

Dense ranks of Holy Emperor Warriors surrounded the entire Yue Xuan so tightly that not even water could pass through. Their chilling killing intent drove the temperature of the entire street down to freezing.
