Xiao Wu, standing nearby, heard this and spoke softly with some concern:
"But Uncle Hao...
That newsflash said that although the Silver Emperor is a two-hundred-thousand-year ferocious beast, she was defeated by a hundred-thousand-year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear fighting above its level...
That shows how enormous the racial differences between Soul Beasts are. The Blue Silver Emperor was never skilled at close-quarters slaughter. Her situation is probably very dangerous now..."
"A woman's softheartedness! What do you know!"
Tang Hao snapped coldly, his gaze growing sharper, utterly unconcerned:
"Plant-type Soul Beasts have always possessed abundant vitality but lacked killing prowess. What's so strange about losing to a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear renowned for slaughter?
What matters is that she's alive-a two-hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor!"
Tang Hao abruptly turned to Tang San and gripped both his arms, his tone leaving no room for doubt:
"San!
This is a heaven-sent opportunity!
The greatest opportunity belonging to you, Tang San, and to our Clear Sky Sect!"
Tang San's heart pounded violently, and his keen intellect immediately caught on:
"Dad, you mean..."
"Bloodline resonance!"
An ambitious smile appeared in Tang Hao's eyes:
"Your mother is the only Blue Silver Emperor on the Douluo Continent!
The purest Blue Silver Emperor supreme bloodline flows through your veins!
Although you haven't awakened it yet, in essence, you are the young lord of the Blue Silver Emperor Clan, bearing the imperial family's orthodox bloodline!"
"Since this 'Silver Emperor' on the Xuanwu Continent could cultivate to two hundred thousand years, she must possess unimaginable wisdom and a source of life!
In the world of plants, where members of the same kind are scarce, imperial blood reigns supreme!
Once you appear before her and display the essence of your mother's Martial Soul, how could she not fall at your feet in worship?!"
At these words, a flash of profound understanding and wild delight instantly crossed Tang San's eyes:
"You're right, Dad!
Blue Silver Grass spreads across the world and is absolutely loyal to its sovereign!
The Blue Silver Emperor bloodline within me carries the innate presence of a superior!
Since that Silver Emperor was defeated by a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, she must now be gravely wounded and still reeling with fright!
If I arrive as the imperial clan's young lord and show both favor and might..."
"That's not all!"
Tang Hao burst into laughter, sweeping away the pent-up gloom caused by Spirit Hall's pressure:
"Once we find the Silver Emperor, with her two hundred thousand years of cultivation, she could cleanse your sinews and marrow with hardly any effort and instantly help you awaken your true Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul!
She might even willingly sacrifice herself, or bestow her two-hundred-thousand-year origin Soul Ring and Soul Bone upon you..."
Originally, Tang Hao had planned to take Tang San to the Blue Silver Forest and find that Blue Silver King to help him awaken his Blue Silver Emperor bloodline.
But now, going to the Xuanwu Continent to find that 'Silver Emperor' seemed the better approach!
At this point, Tang Hao lowered his voice, cold calculation flickering in his eyes:
"Even without sacrificing herself, with the terrifying strength of a two-hundred-thousand-year ferocious beast, she would still be your most loyal guardian on your path!
With the Silver Emperor backing you, what would Spirit Hall amount to?
What would Bibi Dong amount to?
What would Qian Daoliu amount to?!
When the time comes, we father and son will lead the two-hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor back into Spirit City. Not only will we utterly destroy Spirit Hall and avenge our grievances, but we'll also let you ascend to godhood!"
Hearing Tang Hao's grand plan, the gloom in Tang San's heart was swept away completely.
The general principles of the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record flashed through his mind, and a confident, cold smile curled Tang San's lips:
"How wise you are, Dad.
A two-hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor might be merely an ordinary ferocious beast on the Xuanwu Continent, but for my Tang Sect Hidden Weapons and Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, she is an irreplaceable treasure.
If she knows what's good for her and accepts me as her master, once I become a god, she will naturally receive a divine official guardian's station.
If she refuses to appreciate my favor...
Even with two hundred thousand years of cultivation, she can forget about escaping our grasp!"
Father and son exchanged smiles, as though that two-hundred-thousand-year Silver Emperor had already become a Soul Ring in their pocket and their lackey.
Unable to suppress the wild joy and arrogance in their chests, Tang San and Tang Hao actually spoke publicly in the Sky Screen's livestream!
As the father and son saw it.
They had already escaped anyway, so they weren't afraid of being caught.
Since that was the case, they might as well be bolder!
They would infuriate Spirit Hall to death!
[Tang San: May I ask the Xuanwu Great Emperor and fellow practitioners of the Xuanwu Continent where exactly on the Xuanwu Continent that 'Blue Silver Forest' is located? I am Tang San, born with awakened twin Martial Souls, one of which is Blue Silver Grass. Moreover, the origin bloodline of the Douluo Continent's sole 'Blue Silver Emperor' flows through my veins!]
The moment these words appeared, the Douluo Continent section erupted first.
[Dai Mubai: San! You actually possess the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline?!] [Oscar: My heavens! I only knew you had twin Martial Souls, San. Who knew your Blue Silver Grass had a hidden bloodline too?] [Feng Xiaotian: Wait... Blue Silver Grass can be an imperial-grade Martial Soul? What a joke!]
Tang Hao followed up even more forcefully, using the might of a Titled Douluo to cow everyone present:
[Tang Hao: You scum of Spirit Hall, take a good look! My son Tang San bears the orthodox bloodline of the Clear Sky Sect, as well as the noble blood of the Blue Silver Emperor Clan! The Blue Silver Forest of the Xuanwu Continent is my son's destined place of ascension to godhood! Once that two-hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor, the 'Silver Emperor,' senses the call of my son's bloodline, she will naturally submit! The day we father and son bring the Silver Emperor to Douluo will be the day Spirit Hall is annihilated!]
Before the Sky Screen.
Bibi Dong's expression instantly darkened like stormy water, and her fair hand slammed onto the throne's armrest:
"Tang Hao!
Tang San!
To think they harbor such ambitions!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan also exclaimed in alarm:
"A two-hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor?
If Tang San truly gains that Soul Beast's assistance, or even acquires her Soul Ring, with the potential of his twin Martial Souls, he will surely become a great threat in the future, Your Holiness!"
"Why panic!"
Bibi Dong sneered and spoke.
"The Xuanwu Continent is separated from us by ten thousand li of void. Can those two, father and son, even reach it?
Even if they can, do they really think a two-hundred-thousand-year ferocious beast is their pet dog?!"
Yet while the various powers of the Douluo Continent remained shocked and uncertain, this sparked an unprecedented tidal wave of uproarious laughter in the Xuanwu Continent section.
[Zhao Pojun, commander of the Xuanwu Empire's Imperial Guard: Hahahahaha! This has really opened my eyes today! Are the natives of the Douluo Continent's brains filled with nothing but sewage?] [Chen Wuji, prodigy of the Xuanwu Empire's Heaven Dou Imperial Academy: I'm laughing so hard my stomach hurts! A low-ranking little Soul Ancestor whose Martial Soul hasn't even fully undergone its second awakening claims imperial blood flows through his veins? And he wants Lord Silver Emperor to submit? Hahahaha!] [Young lord of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Clan, Xuanwu Continent: Roar! That human is called Tang San, right? You're killing this young lord with laughter! Just today, I snapped three thousand of the Silver Emperor's main Blue Silver Emperor vines with a single slap and beat that old hag until she cowered inside the Blue Silver Sacred Hall, too afraid to come out. A little human brat like you dares come spouting shameless boasts about making the Silver Emperor acknowledge you as her master? Believe it or not, one swipe of my claw could turn you into a meat-paste bun for me to eat?!]
