Ice Empress vs. Tang Hao
Oh no, there's no escaping it!
Although his Purple Demon Eye had detected the Gui Mei and sinister attack in advance, he couldn't dodge it at all due to its speed.
There was no other way but to muster his Soul Power and endure it.
The Gui Mei, now a shadowy figure, was initially slightly surprised that Tang San had been able to detect his presence beforehand, since this person was merely a Soul Ancestor. However, seeing that Tang San, unable to dodge, had actually crossed his arms to prepare to take the blow head-on, he couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing.
"Naive! You actually think you can withstand the attack of Titled Douluo like me with the strength of a mere Soul Ancestor? It seems His Holiness the His Holiness the Pope has overestimated you. Die!"
Although the Gui Mei did not use Soul Skill, the Soul Power of its attack, wielded by Titled Douluo- level expert, was terrifying.
The Gui Mei attack was about to hit them when the Shrek Academy students on the ground, including the five people fighting Yue Guan in the sky, finally reacted.
"Xiaosan, Third Brother!"
In the blink of an eye, all of this happened. The Golden Iron Triangle and the Dragon Duke and Snake Granny in the sky could only watch helplessly as the Gui Mei attack landed on Tang San.
"Third Brother! Pfft~"
Although the others reacted by then, they were too late to arrive. But Xiao Wu, with her big pink eyes wide open, saw the dark figure attacking her lover and, without the slightest hesitation, activated her Soul Skill to Teleportation in front of Tang San, blocking the fatal blow for him.
"Xiao Wu!!!"
Seeing the pink figure flying out while spitting blood, Tang San was instantly enraged and quickly leaped up to catch Xiao Wu, who was spitting blood in mid-air.
Upon landing, Tang San, his expression pained and regretful, hadn't even had a chance to say anything before the Gui Mei's second attack arrived.
However, at this moment, a burst of red light appeared on Xiao Wu's chest, not only neutralizing the Gui Mei attack, but also rapidly healing Xiao Wu's injuries.
"It's the Lovesick Heartbreak Red! It protected Xiao Wu and blocked the attack from this mysterious shadowy figure!"
Although Tang San knew the story and mysterious power of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, he didn't expect it to be so powerful, even able to block the attack of this mysterious shadowy figure, even though he didn't use Soul Skill.
Although it was just a casual strike, seeing that his attack had been neutralized twice, Gui Mei was still somewhat annoyed, as an elder of the Spirit Hall and Titled Douluo- level powerhouse.
Just as he was about to unleash his Soul Skill to kill all these ants before him, the voice of his longtime companion, Yue Guan, rang out from the sky. "Old Ghost! Stop!"
The Yue Guan in the sky easily neutralized the attacks of the Golden Iron Triangle and the Dragon Duke and Snake Granny, then landed on the ground, its eyes wide with surprise as it looked at the Lovesick Heartbreak Red that appeared on Xiao Wu's chest.
"This is... this is... the Lovesick Heartbreak Red! You actually gained the Lovesick Heartbreak Red's approval!"
Yue Guan's eyes were fixed on the Lovesick Heartbreak Red on Xiao Wu's chest, and his voice trembled as he spoke.
He then got up and quickly approached Xiao Wu, who was lying on the ground leaning against a rock, and left.
Upon seeing this, the members of the Shrek Academy quickly took out their Hidden Weapon, the Zhuge Shooting Crossbow, and attacked the golden-armored Titled Douluo.
With a single wave of his hand, a chrysanthemum gleaming with metallic light blocked all the attacks of the Hidden Weapon.
Then Yue Guan came to Xiao Wu's side, staring intently at the alluring red fairy flower.
"Why, why wasn't it me who obtained the Lovesick Heartbreak Red? If, if it were me, I could have reached that level too!"
After gazing at the celestial flower she had longed for for a while, Yue Guan turned to the Gui Mei expression wasn't too good and said, "Old Ghost, it doesn't matter who else you hurt, but you can't harm this little girl!"
After finishing speaking, Yue Guan took advantage of the gap before the two Martial Soul Fusion Skill in the air arrived and activated his Third Soul Skill, the Aura Barrier, which sealed off everyone from the Shrek Academy. Then, he extended his claws, which shone with metallic light, to attack Tang San.
"Boom~"
With a loud bang, Yue Guan, clad in golden armor, was sent flying backward and crashed into a rock to the side.
When the dust settled, everyone saw a tall, burly figure standing before Tang San, wearing a black cloak and wielding a massive hammer crackling with lightning.
The Gui Mei, now a black shadow, swiftly arrived beside his old companion. Yue Guan helping Yue Guan, who had coughed up blood, to his feet, the two looked at the burly figure in front of Tang San with disbelief.
"It's him! It really is him! The intelligence was correct; it really is him, Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao!"
The two looked at the figure that had once brought them endless terror. Although they had received news of it beforehand, seeing this person again still filled them with immense fear.
Tang San, helped to his feet by the crowd, stared in utter shock at the familiar yet unfamiliar burly figure in front of him.
"A chrysanthemum, a little devil—how dare they harm my son? They're asking for death!"
Ignoring the gasps and reactions of the crowd behind him, Tang Hao, with his domineering voice, charged towards Yue Guan and Gui Mei with the Clear Sky Hammer in hand and an unstoppable momentum.
As Tang Hao approached, the scene before them flashed back and overlapped with their own. They didn't even have the will to resist. Gui Mei transformed into a black shadow and hurriedly fled with Yue Guan.
"Hmph! You two have been like this for so many years, still no different, like two stray dogs, only knowing how to flee in panic!"
Seeing that the two had no intention of fighting him and only wanted to run away, Tang Hao felt extremely disdainful. After he finished speaking, Yue Guan and Gui Mei's faces turned red and blue, but they did not dare to make a sound. However, they were unwilling to back down, because if they went back like this, even the Pope with unparalleled talent would not let them off easily.
Ice Empress, who had been sitting on a cliff edge with her legs crossed, watching the show, shook her head as she watched these two, who were at least Titled Douluo- level powerhouses, not even bother to put up a fight against the man with the hammer. Then, she transformed into a wisp of icy mist and appeared not far from Tang Hao.
Gui Mei and Yue Guan, seeing Ice Empress appear opposite Tang Hao transformed into icy mist, both breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed the intelligence was indeed accurate; a mysterious powerhouse would indeed help them complete their mission.
Now that Ice Empress is standing in front of Tang Hao, who appears like a savior, the two of them only need to do what they did before: one of them needs to hold off the Golden Iron Triangle and the Dragon Duke and Snake Granny, while the other goes to deal with Tang San.
As powerful cultivators who had reached the Titled Douluo level, the two put aside their fear of Tang Hao, roused themselves, exchanged a glance, and prepared to proceed according to plan.
Sensing the sudden appearance of this mysterious person, Tang Hao, being a powerful individual, naturally sensed that although this person was short in stature, he exuded an aura no weaker than his own, and his cold eyes gleamed with a chilling light.
