Watch the Sword's Edge Mend the Riven Sky!

In her haste to capture Bai Chenxiang, Zhu Zhuqing completely ignored the attacks from Bai Chenxiang's clansmen behind her. This resulted in the depletion of the characteristics of her Hell Nine-Lived Spirit Cat Martial Soul, which allowed Tang San to pierce through her body with a single strike. It must be said that if Tang San was calculating how many times Zhu Zhuqing would defend against the attack before striking when she was most relaxed, then Tang San's mind is indeed terrifyingly deep. Moreover, his ruthlessness in attacking even his cousin without hesitation earned him a higher opinion from Yu Tianshuang.

"Zhu Zhuqing, how are you?"

Yu Tianshuang reached out and pressed his hand against the bloody hole in Zhu Zhuqing's lower abdomen, temporarily freezing it with his ice attribute power to prevent excessive bleeding. He then stopped Bai Chenxiang's bleeding as well. However, what impressed him was that Zhu Zhuqing was indeed a kind-hearted girl. Although both wounds were penetrating, compared to the head-sized wound on her lower abdomen, Bai Chenxiang's fist-sized wound easily made him understand that this silly girl had used all her Soul Power to protect Bai Chenxiang so as not to implicate others.

"Cough cough... Brother Tianshuang, I'm fine, please take a look at this girl first..."

Zhu Zhuqing's once rosy cherry lips were now completely bloodless. She opened her mouth to cough up the blood gushing from her throat, forced a smile, and spoke.

Although Zhu Zhuqing protected Bai Chenxiang to the best of her ability, this young girl was only a Soul Ancestor. Tang San's attack might not have been a threat to them, but for a Soul Master like Bai Chenxiang who had neither combat experience nor much injury, it was absolutely fatal. At this moment, Bai Chenxiang's already very fair face appeared even paler, not only due to blood loss but also due to fear. From childhood to adulthood, when had she ever suffered such an injury? At this moment, she was already terrified.

"Yu Tianshuang, you didn't expect this, did you? Today, I will settle all grudges with you—the grudge against our teacher, the grudge against Xiao Wu, and the countless people in the world who have been persecuted by your Spirit Hall. Don't worry, after you die, I will make the Spirit Hall and all your accomplices go down to join you..."

Hearing Tang San's words, Yu Tianshuang was too lazy to even comment. If he wanted revenge, he should just take revenge. Why did he have to use some grand cause of justice as a banner? He was just like his teacher, who was always spouting nonsense. He had been wearing a mask of hypocrisy for so long that he couldn't take it off anymore. However, he needed to find a way to buy time. The current situation was very dangerous for him. But this place was located on the border of the Star Luo Empire, not far from Spirit City, which was located between the two empires. Spirit City had a large number of Titled Douluo. Not to mention Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu, who were both level 99 Peerless Douluo, there were also many Peak Douluo above level 95 in the Elder Hall and the Worship Hall. He had to find a way to create enough noise to attract their attention.

"Tang San, judging from your expression, do you think you've got me cornered? Do you think that, apart from that pure agility-type Soul Douluo beside you, if I wanted to run, who could catch me?"

Unlike Senior Sister Bing'er, he could only reach the level of Ultimate Ice with his Sixth Soul Skill and Turning Nirvana under normal circumstances. Without using his domain and Ice Emperor's Blessing, he couldn't casually unleash Ultimate Ice. When he froze the wounds of Zhu Zhuqing and the other girl, he discovered that Tang San had buried many foreign objects with very strong vitality inside their bodies. Thinking back to the Soul Master Tournament, he knew that this was the ability of Tang San's First Martial Soul, Blue Silver Grass. Now that his Martial Soul had evolved into Blue Silver Emperor, these foreign objects buried in the two girls' bodies could be very deadly. Therefore, he could only bluff and make Tang San think that he had frozen these foreign objects as well. Otherwise, if Tang San detonated these foreign objects, he would be in a very passive position.

"Hahaha, Yu Tianshuang, I never thought you'd end up like this. You've already come this far, and you're still pretending? Sure, with your speed, no one but Grandpa can catch you, but are you really willing to let your lover just die like this? Hmm?"

Hearing Yu Tianshuang's bluff, Tang San wasn't intimidated. Instead, he reached out to sense the Blue Silver Seeds embedded in the two women's bodies. This was the Second Soul Skill of his Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul, Parasite. He discovered that the Parasite seeds were still under his control. As long as he activated his Soul Power, these Parasite seeds would erupt. Therefore, he was now confident. In fact, he had to admit that, apart from having more women than him, Yu Tianshuang was sometimes very similar to him. They were both people who valued relationships very much. Even if he died, he wouldn't abandon Zhu Zhuqing. So, Tang San laughed wildly, looking at Yu Tianshuang, not afraid that he would escape at all.

So that's how it is. It seems that Tang San's Martial Soul Evolution to the level of a top-tier Martial Soul. My usual state is not at the level of Ultimate Ice, so I can't completely freeze the foreign objects in Zhu Zhuqing's body. Therefore, even if I take her with me to escape, Tang San is confident that he can keep Zhu Zhuqing. I really can't escape on my own. It seems that I'm really being controlled right now.

"Brother Tianshuang, go! Don't worry about me. Given his relationship with Dai Mubai, he shouldn't kill me. He'll just make me his captive. As long as you're safe, I don't care what happens to me. Just help me get revenge later..."

Although Zhu Zhuqing was usually taciturn, it didn't mean she was stupid. On the contrary, she was actually very intelligent. Listening to the two's probing conversation, she forced herself to sense her internal state, and her small face immediately turned even paler. She barely managed to extend a slender hand and gently nudged Yu Tianshuang, stammering, "As long as Brother Tianshuang can escape safely, I will commit suicide the moment I fall into Dai Mubai's hands. I won't give him a chance to humiliate me. Because I can already imagine what fate awaits me if I fall into Dai Mubai's hands, given his twisted nature, especially with that lecherous fat man beside him..."

"Shut up, don't speak. After all these years, in your heart, am I really the kind of person who would abandon the one they love and live on for nothing? Today... I'm going to take you with me, and no one can stop us!"

At this moment, Yu Tianshuang's sharply defined and cold face was gloomy. Upon hearing Zhu Zhuqing's words, he immediately rebuked her fiercely, then waved his hand to draw the Heavenly Frost Cold Qi into his hand, his pair of azure eyes Lengleng staring at Tang San and the others opposite him.

"My... my beloved..."

Even though Zhu Zhuqing was very weak at this moment, ever since she was rescued by Yu Tianshuang outside the city that day and lived with him at the Skywater Academy, so many years had passed. She was a bit sensitive by nature and had never dared to express her feelings to him. She also greatly envied the unrestrained way he and Shui Yue'er got along. After Huo Wu confessed his feelings, she hated her own nature even more. But she had wanted to speak up countless times, but she always backed down.

She was plagued by anxieties and uncertainties. There's a natural connection between people who like each other, but she feared it was all just her imagination. Compared to them, she seemed to have no advantage, and her personality was so unlikable. So she kept her feelings buried deep inside. Now, in this moment of crisis, hearing Yu Tianshuang's stern rebuke, she couldn't hear anything else, ignoring everything else. She only heard the words "my beloved," and her heart was filled with warmth. Her long-cherished wish had been fulfilled. Now, she felt that even dying now would be enough.

"What's with that expression? Don't worry, in all these years, when has your brother Tianshuang ever failed to keep his word? If he said he'd take you away, he'd take you away safely. Now you just stay here and wait for me!"

Seeing the "I'd rather die in peace" expression on Zhu Zhuqing's cool and lovely face, Yu Tianshuang tapped her on the head and said, then turned around, sword in hand, and remained silent, awaiting the coming storm.

"Ah, Yu Tianshuang, I don't know why, but I'm feeling hesitant. In this world, I don't even take those Titled Douluo seriously, except for you. You and I are very similar sometimes, really. And we are both exceptionally talented. Sometimes I think, how wonderful it would be if we were friends. But why did you choose to be my enemy? Why did you persecute my Xiao Wu? Why did you make us enemies? Now that things have come to this, I can only say that perhaps two tigers cannot share the same mountain. In the same era, two equally dazzling stars will not be allowed to shine together. So, I have no choice but to ask you to die..."

Tang San was actually quite disheartened. He had met many of the older generation of geniuses, and to be honest, even his father, who held the title of Haotian, was inferior to him. The younger generation was even more so. Whether it was the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall, Yu Tianxin and Yu Tianheng from the Upper Three Sects, or Shui Bing'er with her top-tier Beast Martial Soul, he looked down on them all. Only this person, from the moment he appeared, had consistently suppressed him. Seeing him fall to this state now, he truly felt a pang of regret. Perhaps this was the mutual respect between the strong, even enemies.

"Why say so much? If you want to fight, then fight! Let's see if you can stop me today! Ice Shadow Seven Star Steps, Ice Heaven Concentrated Spirit!"

Yu Tianshuang also felt this way, but not as strongly as Tang San. At this moment, ice mist swirled beneath his feet, and a miniature array appeared beneath his feet. In an instant, he traversed dozens of meters and arrived in front of Tang San. He unleashed an icy blue sword aura, and taking advantage of the gap in Tang San's dodge, he touched the air again, turning into ice mist and disappearing from his original spot. He reappeared at the back of the group next to Oscar and slashed down with his sword.

"Third Soul Skill: White Tiger Vajra Transformation, First Soul Skill: White Tiger Protection Barrier!"

Objectively speaking, Dai Mubai is the strongest person in the Shrek Academy besides Tang San. Five years later, his Soul Power has also reached the Soul Emperor level, and his Martial Soul is also a top-tier Beast Martial Soul, the White Tiger, just like the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. The moment Yu Tianshuang disappeared in front of Tang San in the form of ice mist, it became clear that this person's goal was Oscar, who could make everyone fly. As he disappeared, he activated his Third Soul Skill, which greatly increased his defense, and then directly appeared in front of Oscar. A golden defensive light shield lit up. Sure enough, he had predicted Yu Tianshuang's actions. Fortunately, he had completed all of this in advance, and at this moment, he was just in time to meet Yu Tianshuang's powerful sword strike.

"Get out of here!"

Even though it was just an ordinary sword strike, this one, imbued with the Seven Kill Sword Intent Greedy Wolf and Army Breaker, was still shattered by Yu Tianshuang's sword, even though Dai Mubai had activated two defensive Soul Skill at the same time. Then, she came close, her icy blue Soul Power surging in her hand, and slammed her palm hard into Dai Mubai's chest, directly sending him crashing into the mountainside, embedding him into a human-shaped depression.

"Daydreaming Mirror Sausage, Third Soul Skill: Spider Web Restraint, Fourth Soul Skill: Blue Silver Cage!"

Fortunately, Dai Mubai blocked the fatal sword for him. Oscar immediately ate the two sausages. To be on the safe side, he also ate the Excited Pink Sausage. He then unleashed two Control System Soul Skill in succession, enough to delay others until they could react and rescue him.

With a single sword strike, he shattered and froze the spiderweb thrown by Oscar. Then, with a backhand stroke, he drew a semicircle, cleaving open the Blue Silver Cage that had risen out of thin air. Icy mist swirled beneath his feet as he slightly sidestepped Tang San's thrown Blue Silver Overlord Spear. Then, he thrust his sword forward, the tip colliding with the tip of Yang Wudi's spear.

"Bang!"

With Yu Tianshuang's physical strength and Soul Power power, she was no less formidable than Yang Wudi, a pure attack-type Soul Douluo, who was known for his offensive prowess. The moment their weapons clashed, the terrifying energy burst forth in mid-air, causing onlookers to instinctively shield their faces. Yang Wudi, despite his hasty attack and the unparalleled power of his Soul Breaking Spear, was still knocked back more than ten meters by Yu Tianshuang's terrifying strength.

At this moment, Yu Tianshuang pressed his sword finger against the Heavenly Frost Cold Qi Sword with one hand. His azure eyes suddenly burst forth with snow-white light, activating the Extreme Ice Eternal Frost Eye. The people in front of him instantly felt a layer of frost condense on their bodies, and their movements slowed down. Then, he stepped in mid-air and used the Ice Shadow Seven Star Steps. After Yu Tianshuang attack failed, he instantly returned to a short distance in front of Zhu Zhuqing, and the battle returned to the stalemate at the beginning.

Fifth Soul Skill: Blue Silver Overlord Spear x2, Sixth Soul Skill: White Tiger Annihilation Kill, Eighth Soul Skill: Giant Ape Roar, Soul Breaking Spear Explosion!

Aside from Niu Gao, who was responsible for defense, and Bai He, who had not yet recovered, Tang San's group went all out against Yu Tianshuang, who had returned to the front. The strongest attacks of the two Soul Douluo, plus Dai Mubai's cross slash, and Tang San and Oscar's two Blue Silver Overlord Spear with spiraling energy, all rushed towards Yu Tianshuang.

"Ice Heaven Frost Sword: Momentary Splendor, Seven Kill Unification."

Of all the attacks, Yang Wudi's Soul Breaking Spear was the fastest. At this moment, Yu Tianshuang's Divine Power plummeted, and he instantly used the two secret techniques that consumed a lot of Divine Power: Ring Fusion and the Seven Kill Sword Intent. He also poured all his Soul Power into the Heavenly Frost Cold Qi in his hand. As early as after the failed sneak attack, Yu Tianshuang had begun to gather his strength. At this moment, he burst out with terrifying frost power, and the air beneath his feet turned into a solid ice surface. He slightly pulled back his sword arm to gather strength, and then suddenly thrust it forward. A sword energy beam as thick as a bucket appeared and first met Yang Wudi's Soul Breaking Spear.

At this moment, Yang Wudi only felt an indescribable killing intent and a bone-chilling cold. In the instant he clashed with the icy blue sword energy pillar, he felt as if he was about to be pierced and frozen. Fortunately, a Blue Silver Overlord Spear and a Cross Slash followed, relieving the pressure on him. Finally, Tai Tan's earthen yellow pillar of light roared and wrestled with the sword energy pillar as thick as a bucket.

"Not good!"

At this moment on the battlefield, the two sides' all-out attacks clashed. Even the aftershocks crushed the flying pebbles into dust. Yu Tianshuang, who was fully activating his Extreme Ice Eternal Frost Eye, discovered that the only Blue Silver Overlord Spear he was facing was the one Oscar had thrown. Only then did he see out of the corner of his eye that Tang San was staring intently at Zhu Zhuqing, who was clutching her wound behind him, with a gloomy expression. He immediately sensed something was wrong.
