Xue Beng Is Killed! Phainon Speaks in Riddles!

Tang Hao heard Gangzi say he wanted to fight Bibi Dong.

Tang Hao nearly lost his footing. How did I never notice before that Yu Xiaogang's skin had grown thicker and thicker?

He's a weakling who hasn't even reached level thirty. She could kill him with a wave of her hand!

Tang San, however, was deeply moved.

Teacher must have some hidden trump card if he can even stand against the Pope.

A moment later.

The group arrived outside the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.

Yu Xiaogang, Tang Hao, Tang San, and Xiao Wu entered together.

The others stayed outside to support them.

Under Tang Hao's cover, they slipped in without being discovered.

They knew Poison Douluo had been at the academy before, but they did not know where he was now.

As they passed a lake.

Tang Hao narrowed his eyes.

Crown Prince Xue Qinghe?

A Titled Douluo?

And one more whose strength I can't read!

Tang Hao looked at the white-haired young man and felt something he could not put into words.

He had sensed that kind of aura only from a power beyond Divine Slaughter's Domain.

Then he shook his head. How could that be?

How could a young man reach such a level?

Phainon sensed Tang Hao watching from the shadows.

He smiled.

"There's a good show coming!"

Qian Renxue was curious. "What kind of show?"

Snake Lance Douluo felt as though someone had just set their sights on him.

But the feeling soon vanished.

On the road to Sunset Forest.

Chrysanthemum Douluo stopped in midair.

He gave Ghost Douluo a long look.

"Old Ghost, that's how you die? How disgraceful!"

Ghost Douluo fell silent. "Then why were you crying so hard?"

Tears streamed down Chrysanthemum Douluo's face. "I wasn't crying. The screen is fake."

[A year later, the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire simultaneously declare war on the Spirit Hall Empire.]

[After Gui Mei's death, Yue Guan can no longer use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill and is treated with increasing coldness.]

[He is even ordered to lead a raid on the Heaven Dou Empire army's supply lines, a task that should have been assigned to a Soul Douluo.]

[Tang San sees through the plan. Yue Guan begs for mercy, but Tang San refuses.]

[Before his death, Yue Guan's pride as a Titled Douluo reawakens, and he attacks Tang San with all his strength.]

[After Tang San calls him "senior"!]

[Chrysanthemum Douluo dies in battle.]

[From that day on, the Two Extremes Stillness Domain is no more!]

Most people thought Chrysanthemum Douluo's end was far too miserable.

He was a Super Douluo.

Yet he had plainly been used up and discarded.

Did Spirit Hall have no humanity at all?

Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

Xue Ye nearly coughed up blood at the sight.

"They'd throw away a Super Douluo like that?"

"Since when did Super Douluo become so worthless?"

"And Heaven Dou declares war on the Spirit Hall Empire? Is that real?"

In the skies on their way to Sunset Forest.

Ghost Douluo watched, then said quietly, "At least your death looks a little better than mine."

Chrysanthemum Douluo scoffed in a delicate voice. "Of course it does!"

Ghost Douluo murmured, "This time, we won't die!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo asked, "What are you saying? You want to leave Spirit Hall?"

Ghost Douluo nodded. "If we get the Immortal Herbs, we'll find somewhere to refine and absorb them. Then we'll hide away someplace quiet. At least we won't die!"

"Besides, I expect things will descend into chaos soon."

Chrysanthemum Douluo fell into thought. His resentment had been building for a long time.

He had risked his life for Spirit Hall all these years and had not received a single Soul Bone.

The Golden Generation had achieved nothing, yet three Soul Bones had already been set aside as their rewards. Comparing himself to them was enough to make him furious.

And judging by Bibi Dong's attitude, she saw him as nothing but a tool!

After he lost access to their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, she would cast him aside like a worn-out shoe.

A leader like that was not worth risking his life for.

He had given Spirit Hall his all over the years. He owed it nothing.

With that thought, he began looking forward to the reward he might receive.

Elsewhere.

Xue Beng complained bitterly.

"Uncle, look at that screen. It never shows what matters when it matters."

"It's shown so much of the future. Why won't it show who ultimately becomes emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire?"

"Declaring war on the Spirit Hall Empire? Father definitely doesn't have the nerve. I bet I'm the one who takes the throne!"

Xue Xing was speechless.

He thought highly of his nephew.

But his elder brother, Emperor Xue Ye, still occupied the throne. He cautioned Xue Beng:

"Xue Qinghe is vicious and cunning. You must keep lying low. Don't give yourself away."

Xue Beng sighed helplessly.

"Pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger? I've pretended to be a pig for so long I've actually become a wastrel."

"When will I finally be able to stand tall?"

"Who's there?"

Suddenly.

Xue Beng grew wary.

He sensed someone approaching.

It was Tang Hao and his group.

"So it's you, Little Scumbag?"

Xue Beng sneered.

Already in a foul mood, he grew even more irritated at the sight of Tang San and the others.

Why did Tang San get to soar through everything shown on the screen, gaining resources and growing stronger at every turn?

But he needed Tang San to cure Dugu Bo's poison.

If he captured Tang San, would that not give him leverage to negotiate with Dugu Bo?

After all, his uncle had a Soul Douluo at his side.

The people before him were no match for that.

Xue Beng declared arrogantly:

"Tang San, you still dare show your face here?"

"The screen's exposed everything about you."

"Hand over the method for curing Poison Douluo."

"And that one there—is she the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast? Hand her over too!"

Xue Beng eyed Xiao Wu greedily.

She was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form!

At Xue Beng's words.

Tang San flew into a rage and gripped Xiao Wu's hand.

"Xue Beng, you've found your own path to death!"

Warmth filled Xiao Wu's heart.

Yu Xiaogang laughed inwardly.

Threatening to kill someone in front of the Clear Sky Douluo?

Who do you think you are?

Tang Hao said coldly:

"Tell us where Dugu Bo went. Give us a lead, or I'll kill you."

Watching Xue Beng bully Tang San and the others earlier had already infuriated him.

Now he had no reason to hold back.

The screen had already revealed so much. As he saw it, it would expose him sooner or later. He might as well act first.

Xue Beng scoffed. "And who's this shabby old man?"

Tang San gave a cold smile. "He's my father."

Xue Beng sneered. "Then I'm your grandfather."

The next instant.

Crack.

Tang Hao reached out and snapped Xue Beng's neck.

One sentence was all it took to go from provocation to death.

The sudden turn left Xue Xing stunned.

His nephew had been so full of swagger a moment ago. Now he was dead, just like that?

Xue Xing shouted for help. "Guards! Protect me! Help!"

Tang Hao said casually:

"Looking for that Soul Douluo? I killed him already!"

"Tell me where Dugu Bo went, and I'll spare your life!"

Xue Xing went numb.

He should have realized it sooner.

For these people to have barged in like this.

Something must have happened outside. Xue Beng's arrogance had simply dragged his wits down with it.

No matter how precious the Immortal Herbs were, they were not worth his life.

So Xue Xing immediately backed down.

"Poison Douluo went to Sunset Forest."

"I don't know anything more. He's never told anyone where his Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is!"

Satisfied, the group left.

Tang San felt especially vindicated!

Next, they had to find the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Even if Dugu Bo had obtained the Medicine Scripture and Poison Scripture from the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, he lacked Tang San's experience. Tang San might still have a chance.

Word of Xue Beng's murder soon spread.

Tang San and his companions had done it.

The news sent shockwaves everywhere!

"Tang San? He's famous on the screen!"

"He's destined to become a god!"

"And he killed the fourth prince!"

When Qian Renxue heard the news, she turned to Snake Lance Douluo in shock.

Snake Lance Douluo shook his head.

Qian Renxue turned to Phainon.

Phainon had clearly said a good show was coming!

"Phainon, what do you know?"

Phainon thought for a moment.

Then he said earnestly:

"A fish is coming."

With that, he hooked another tiny fish.

Snake Lance Douluo: "..."

Qian Renxue: "..."

Qian Renxue gritted her teeth. "Give me ten more outfits!"

Damn Phainon! His clothes cost a fortune, and all he knows how to do is fleece me!

Qian Renxue felt that Phainon wasn't fishing for fish here. He was fishing for her!

Damn riddler!
