Just as the sharp fangs were about to sink into Xiao Wu!

"Ahhh!!!"

Xiao Wu let out a shrill, despairing scream. Immediately afterward, a terrifying aura erupted from her body, forcefully blasting the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor away.

Under everyone's shocked gazes, a pink pillar of light continued to erupt from her body, soaring into the sky and tightly enveloping Tang San.

"How... how is this possible???"

Dugu Bo's pupils suddenly contracted, and a storm surged through his heart.

He could not understand it, nor could he make sense of it!

Hadn't this Little Rabbit already taken human form?

Why could she still unleash such a terrifying presence?

Just as Dugu Bo stood stunned, questioning his entire life.

Tang Hao, hidden in the shadows, saw Tang San enveloped by the pink pillar of light, and a scheming smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

"Xiao San's efforts all these years were not in vain. Before she dies, this Little Rabbit sacrificing herself to Xiao San can be considered the best possible ending for her!"

Glancing at Dugu Bo, who was still stunned and questioning his life, Tang Hao sneered. "A mere venomous snake that does not even recognize a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast's sacrifice—what a disgrace to Titled Douluo."

"No wonder Dugu Bo has always been at the very bottom among Titled Douluo. He possesses nothing but poison, yet his vision is shallow and his knowledge narrow. In his entire life, he will never come into contact with a truly top-tier opportunity."

From beginning to end, Tang Hao had remained hidden in the shadows.

Even when Dugu Bo came to Shrek Academy to cause trouble, killed Li Yusong, and even crippled one of Flender's arms, Tang Hao had never shown himself.

When he learned that Dugu Bo had come for Xiao Wu, Tang Hao knew that Xiao Wu's identity as a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast had been exposed.

Because of that, a plan emerged in his mind.

A plan he had used before, one that remained effective even now.

That was to use Dugu Bo's hand to force Xiao Wu to sacrifice herself to Tang San.

Clearly, his plan had succeeded!

"Ah Yin! Look at how outstanding our child is. Xiao San not only possesses Innate Full Soul Power, but he also inherited your Blue Silver Emperor and my Clear Sky Hammer."

"Though Xiao San has suffered some hardships, he still obtained a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast's sacrifice. Ah Yin, just wait. Now that Xiao San has a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, he will definitely be able to destroy Spirit Hall and avenge you in the future!"

At the thought of Ah Yin's sacrifice all those years ago, a trace of guilt flashed through Tang Hao's heart, but his face remained filled with hatred for Spirit Hall.

He could scheme and force Ah Yin to sacrifice herself, but Spirit Hall was still the chief culprit that had destroyed his family.

They had not only driven his father to death and severely wounded the Clear Sky Sect, but had also forced him into a situation where he could not return home. Spirit Hall truly was an inherently evil organization.

Only by destroying Spirit Hall and exterminating the Angel Lineage could he slightly soothe the hatred in his heart.

Just as Tang Hao's heart filled with guilt toward Ah Yin and hatred for Spirit Hall!

Elsewhere, Gui Mei and Yue Guan led Hu Liena and the others toward Skywater City without pause to visit the Shui Family.

Halfway there, they saw a vast pink pillar of light rise from above Heaven Dou City, piercing straight through the clouds.

Yue Guan abruptly stopped. His eyes widened as he stared toward the source of the light pillar, crying out in shock.

"This... this aura... is it a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?"

Gui Mei seemed to realize something, and his expression instantly darkened.

His brows furrowed tightly, his body instinctively tensed, and his gaze locked onto Heaven Dou City. His voice was low and hoarse.

"This fluctuation... is a sacrifice!"

"A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast is sacrificing itself!"

Yue Guan and Gui Mei were more familiar with sacrifices than anyone!

Back then, they had personally witnessed the Blue Silver Emperor sacrifice herself to Tang Hao, after which he massacred everyone around him.

"A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast's sacrifice???"

Hearing Yue Guan and Gui Mei's cries, Hu Liena and the others were stunned!

Although the Sky Screen had shown them Shui Wulü's configuration of nine Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings, as well as the Divine Power Divine Wheel beyond the Soul Power system, this was truly their first time witnessing a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast's sacrifice.

Yue Guan's expression turned solemn as he instructed the Golden Generation. "Nana, you all go to Skywater City first. Old Ghost and I will head to Heaven Dou City to see what is happening!"

"Until we return, Nana, all of you are to stay properly inside the Spirit Hall Branch in Skywater City. Do not go anywhere. As for visiting the Shui Family, wait until we return before discussing it!"

The Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast's sacrifice had already begun. Yue Guan knew it was impossible to stop, but he still wanted to bring Gui Mei over to understand the situation.

So what if they could not obtain the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring?

Wasn't there still a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone to snatch?

Besides! Once he learned who had received the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast's sacrifice, he could still invite that person to join Spirit Hall.

If that person dared to refuse, they would not mind killing them!

Hu Liena and the others stiffened at his words and hurriedly responded, "Yes! Elder Chrysanthemum, we understand!"

At the side, Gui Mei's gaze was cold as he said in a deep voice, "Old friend, stop dawdling! If we do not hurry over, I'm afraid we will not even get a single hair!"

Gui Mei said nothing. He directly used Martial Soul Possession and shot toward Heaven Dou City. He moved so fast that he vanished in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Yue Guan immediately followed after him.

Meanwhile, within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

After seeing what had happened at Shrek Academy, no one felt much of anything.

Xiao Wu had been forced to sacrifice herself?

What did that have to do with them?

Strictly speaking, everyone present was human.

Even though Ice Empress, Snow Empress, and the two Dragon Kings had once belonged to the Soul Beast Clan, that was a matter of the past.

Even if Ice Empress, Snow Empress, and the two Dragon Kings still had unclear ties to the Soul Beast Clan, those ties were limited to their former respective clans.

For instance, even though Ice Empress had become a god as a human, she was still the clan leader worshipped and followed by the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion clan.

Although Snow Empress had no other clansmen, she was still the absolute ruler recognized by every living being in the Far North.

As for the two Dragon Kings, they had only ever cared about the Dragon Clan. To them, the Soul Beast Clan was truly dispensable.

Of course, although they did not care that Xiao Wu had been forced into sacrifice, the women present felt intense disgust toward Tang Hao, who was hiding in the shadows.

"This Tang Hao is truly cold-blooded and selfish. He clearly possesses enough strength to intimidate Dugu Bo, yet he chose to hide in the shadows and watch all of this with cold eyes."

"Exactly! Tang Hao watched helplessly as Xiao Wu was forced into a dead end where she had no choice but to sacrifice herself. He obviously wanted to use Dugu Bo's hand to force Xiao Wu to sacrifice herself to Tang San!"

"It seems Husband was right! The incident where Ah Yin was forced by Spirit Hall to sacrifice herself back then was probably planned by Tang Hao from the very beginning. It is a pity that Ah Yin gave her heart to the wrong man!"

"In the end, whether it was Ah Yin or Xiao Wu now, in Tang Hao's eyes, they were nothing more than tools for him and his son to grow stronger!"
