"Hmm?" Lin Chen raised an eyebrow. "You're letting me leave now? You don't need me to help you see them off?"
Xue Qinghe gave a haughty snort, crossing his arms. "Does this emperor have no one else under his command? Do I really need you to help me send people away?"
"Alright~" Lin Chen stretched slowly, turned around and left. "Then I'll take Yanyan and Long'er with me first."
"You!"
Watching his departing figure, Xue Qinghe gritted her teeth in anger, her pretty face fixed on him. "You bastard! I told you to leave, so why have you been so obedient to me?!"
The silver-armored guards looked at each other, dragging the half-dead Tang San, waiting for Xue Qinghe's orders.
Xue Qinghe turned around and shouted angrily, "What are you all standing there for? Take him away!"
"Uh... yes!"
Two silver-armored guards quickly dragged Tang San away.
"Someone, go and invite the Enshrined Jiang Mo." Xue Qinghe gave another order. Now that Lin Chen had left, she needed a Titled Douluo- level bodyguard by her side.
"Yes."
An hour later, it was still the same mountain forest.
Xue Qinghe led a group of silver-armored guards to this place, but today's arrival was not Yu Yuanzhen and Xue Tu, but a one-armed middle-aged man dressed in coarse linen clothes, who was none other than Tang Hao.
Although Tang Hao lost an arm and half of his forearm, this injury was not particularly serious for a Titled Douluo, and he had recovered most of it under Tang Chen's careful treatment.
Seeing Tang San's miserable appearance and pale face, Tang Hao's old face changed drastically. " Xiao San, Xiao San, how are you?!"
Tang San had not yet recovered; his face was deathly pale, and he said weakly, "Father, they destroyed my Blue Silver Bloodline... Am I... am I ruined?"
" The Xiao San..." Tang Hao's eyes gradually turned bloodshot, and an invisible killing intent enveloped the nearby mountains and forests.
Seeing that he was not in a good mood, Xue Qinghe cursed her "cheap father" in her heart again, and said calmly, "Mr. Tang Hao, Tang San has been sent back to you."
Let's go!
"Halt!" Tang Hao handed Tang San over to two disciples of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, then his old face turned cold. "You've harmed Xiao San like this, and you still think you can leave?"
Xue Qinghe's handsome face hardened slightly. " Tang Hao, are you declaring war on our Spirit Hall?"
Tang Hao said Youyou, "Do you know why the deal for you today wasn't with Patriarch Yu and Xue Tu?"
"What do you mean?"
Tang Hao gave a low shout and instantly made his move, "Because they and my grandfather are both confronting Qian Daoliu, they can't come today!"
"You dare touch my son, Tang Hao? You must die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he summoned Clear Sky True Body and attacked her with his hammer.
Meanwhile, on the other side
Qian Daoliu noticed the commotion in the forest below and immediately stood up. The three people behind him, Yuan Jin and Enshrined Qian Jun, also wanted to go to provide support.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Just then, Tang Chen, Xue Tu, and Yu Yuanzhen instantly blocked their way.
Qian Daoliu's face darkened. "Brother Tang, what are you doing?!"
"Hmph!" Tang Chen's face was also extremely ugly. "What are we doing?! If Qian Daoliu and Tang San were safe and sound, would they have started a fight? This time, you broke the contract first!"
Qian Daoliu quickly said, "Brother Tang, let's go downstairs and find out what's going on, then we'll figure out a solution. We don't have any absolute conflict of interest!"
At this moment, a disciple of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan arrived. "No need to inquire anymore, Tang San has been crippled by you all, he can't even stand up now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Daoliu fell silent.
The Enshrined Qian Jun behind him reminded him, " Great Enshrined, Your Highness Xue is still down there."
Qian Daoliu frowned deeply. "Brother Tang, I guarantee that this matter has absolutely nothing to do with me or Xue'er!"
Tang Chen coldly replied, "Whether it matters or not, we'll know after they're done!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Daoliu's expression darkened. Tang Chen and the Clear Sky Sect currently had no direct conflict of interest with the Spirit Hall, and he did not want to start a war with them for the time being. However, his granddaughter was down there, and if something happened to her, what would happen to his plans?
"Brother Tang, with so few men, I'm afraid you can't stop us, can you?"
Tang Chen sneered, "I was prepared for this situation. The three of us aren't enough. Would adding four more people be enough?"
As soon as he finished speaking, two middle-aged men dressed in the robes of the Clear Sky Sect and two others in dark red armor appeared on the mountaintop. They were the two elders of the Clear Sky Sect and two of the six Enforcement Team of the Slaughter City.
Enshrined Qian Jun's expression changed slightly. "They're all Titled Douluo?"
Qian Daoliu narrowed his eyes slightly and said meaningfully, "Brother Tang, it seems that the Clear Sky Sect's closure of the mountain has been quite effective these past few years."
"Hmph." Tang Chen said sarcastically, "Your Spirit Hall is developing, but so is our Clear Sky Sect. Today, none of you are leaving!"
"Then let's see who's the better fighter!"
Meanwhile, in the mountains and forests
The moment Tang Hao made his move, the Enshrined Jiang Mo behind Qian Renxue swiftly summoned the Coiling Dragon Staff to block her path, shouting:
"Your Highness, run! I'll hold him off!"
"You?!" Tang Hao, hammer in hand, coldly shouted, "Even if I'm severely injured and my fighting strength is less than seventy percent, you still can't withstand me!"
Clang! Boom boom boom...
The two Martial Soul Avatar clashed head-on, instantly generating a surge of Soul Power. The aura of the Enshrined Jiang Mo was completely suppressed, and it seemed he couldn't hold out for long.
Sure enough, in less than a few breaths, the Enshrined Jiang Mo retreated dozens of feet, while Tang Hao, carrying his hammer, had already arrived in front of ' Xue Qinghe '.
"Today, whoever you are, you will pay the price for my son!"
Xue Qinghe's pretty face turned solemn as she revealed her true form. She wore a white-gold imperial robe, her golden hair fluttering in the wind, and her three pairs of six-winged golden feathers flapping back and forth. Her temperament was noble and aloof, making it impossible for anyone to look at her with disrespect.
" Tang Hao, you have incurred the wrath of our Spirit Hall over what happened back then, and today I, the Emperor, will settle that score with you!"
Tang Hao's expression darkened further upon seeing her appearance. "Who do we have here? It turns out you're Qian Xunji's daughter. Today, we'll settle both old and new scores!"
" Great Sumeru Hammer!"
" Seventh Soul Skill, Angel Golden Body!" Qian Renxue shouted, and a golden Angel Phantom appeared on her body. The giant sword of light and shadow in her hand swiftly slashed towards Tang Hao.
Bang! Boom boom boom...
Qian Renxue shouted and flew backward. Her Angel Golden Body became much more illusory. Even with her current Soul Power of level 86, she was still no match for the heavily injured Tang Hao.
"Hmph!" Tang Hao sneered, "Back when I had just become Titled Douluo, I was able to severely injure your level 95 father. You are far inferior to him!"
"Today I will cripple your Soul Power and seek justice for the Xiao San!"
Having said that, he wielded the Clear Sky Hammer and swung it at her again.
Qian Renxue's exquisite face was very solemn, and there was still a trace of blood at the corner of her rosy lips.
" Tang Hao, how dare you bully my daughter? Have you forgotten the pain of your past mistakes?"
At the critical moment, a tall figure arrived on a sword, his left hand grabbing Qian Renxue's slender waist, while his right hand unleashed the Red Firmament Greatsword, directly forcing Tang Hao back.
Qian Renxue felt as if she had fallen into a warm and familiar embrace. She stared blankly at his profile, her heart filled with a sense of security.
Lin Chen's lips curled up slightly. " Xue'er, don't be afraid, your father is here!"
