Shrek Under Siege
Tang Hao ignored Yu Xiaogang and turned to leave with Tang San.
"Xiao San, let's go."
But Yu Xiaogang shamelessly grabbed Tang San by the arm and burst into tears.
"Xiao San! Quickly, beg your father for me!"
"Ask him to take me with you!"
"I've always treated you well, my disciple. Surely you can't just stand by and watch me die here!"
"If I die just like this, all my knowledge of Martial Soul Theory will die with me. That would be a tremendous loss to the Douluo Continent!"
As he spoke, he gripped Tang San's arm even tighter, as though clutching the last straw that could save his life.
Tang San was at a loss for words, torn between the two.
On one side was his own father; on the other, the teacher who had passed on his knowledge.
Quick-witted as he was, even he didn't know what to do.
At the sight, Tang Hao's face darkened completely.
He had never been a man with a good temper.
Seeing that this good-for-nothing still dared to use his son as a shield, he felt the anger in his chest flare up.
Unable to bear it any longer, he flashed forward.
"Smack!"
A resounding slap landed hard across Yu Xiaogang's face!
The tremendous force sent Yu Xiaogang flying backward!
Several bloody teeth, mixed with torn flesh, flew through the air!
One side of Yu Xiaogang's face swelled visibly.
He traced an arc through the air before crashing to the ground, knocked unconscious on the spot.
"Xiaogang!"
Seeing this, Flender and Liu Erlong hurried over and helped Yu Xiaogang up.
But what part of Yu Xiaogang still looked human?
His face was swollen like a pig's head, a truly miserable sight.
Liu Erlong immediately exploded with anger, her delicate brows shooting up as she glared at Tang Hao.
"You're Xiao San's father, aren't you?"
"No matter what, Xiaogang is Xiao San's teacher!"
"Treating Xiao San's teacher like this, do you show any sign of being a proper father?!"
Tang Hao nearly laughed with anger.
"A thing like him thinks he's fit to be my son's teacher?"
"He struts around swindling people all day, thinking that stealing a pile of useless stuff from Spirit Hall makes him a grandmaster!"
"Fuck, what right does a fifty-year-old good-for-nothing who can't even break through to level thirty have to be my son's teacher?"
"And that bastard provoked Spirit Hall, then tried to drag my son down with him!"
"He got off easy when I didn't kill him!"
At those words, Tang San froze on the spot.
His most beloved teacher had actually been trying to harm him?
For a moment, Tang San felt his head buzzing.
Tang Hao continued coldly:
"If you keep barking, there'll be no need to wait for the people from Spirit Hall to come."
"I'll send you all to the Western Paradise myself!"
Liu Erlong wanted to say something more, but Flender grabbed her.
Flender shook his head at her.
Liu Erlong didn't know, but Flender did.
This Clear Sky Douluo really was capable of doing such a thing!
If they angered him, the few of them might not even know how they had died.
Tang Hao couldn't be bothered with them anymore. He turned to Tang San and said:
"Xiao San, get your Xiao Wu and leave this place with her."
Tang San fell silent for a moment, but ultimately nodded.
But just then.
"Leave?"
"None of you are leaving today!"
A shout suddenly thundered from the heavens!
Two groups came racing in from opposite directions!
Wave after wave of terrifying Soul Power swept down over them, covering the sky and blotting out the earth!
The teachers and students of Shrek Academy were forced to their knees on the spot, unable even to raise their heads.
One group was none other than Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo.
The other consisted of Azure Luan and the four others who had gone to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect earlier!
Mighty Lion Douluo was carrying a man whose limbs hung limp, like a dead dog.
The man was none other than Yu Yuanzhen, the sect master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.
A dignified sect master of his generation, he was now being carried like a dead dog, his dignity utterly stripped away.
Not long ago, the five Enshrined had descended upon the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect and attacked everyone they saw, giving the sect no chance to react.
The sect master, Yu Yuanzhen himself, had been taken down by Azure Luan and Lion working together!
Only afterward had they learned that Yu Xiaogang was now at Shrek Academy.
So they had hurried over.
They hadn't expected to find not only Yu Xiaogang, but also Tang Hao, a fish that had slipped through the net!
It really was double happiness at the door!
When Tang Hao saw the seven of them, he couldn't help cursing:
"Fuck!"
All seven were Super Douluo!
Against a force like this, he would have been certain to lose even in his prime.
To escape now, he would have to take them by surprise and force open a gap.
With that thought, Tang Hao sent out a burst of Soul Power with a backhand motion, shielding Tang San and Xiao Wu behind him.
Immediately afterward, his seventh, eighth, and ninth Soul Rings exploded!
The secret Ring Detonation technique!
With his body now riddled with wounds, that was all he could manage.
It was also his only way to escape seven Super Douluo!
Azure Luan's expression changed sharply, and he shouted:
"Attack together and take him down!"
Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo had both taken part in the hunt for Tang Hao and knew all too well how terrifying he was.
The two immediately prepared to use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Two Extremes Stillness Domain!
Once unleashed, this move could freeze all space and time within a certain range!
When that happened, no matter how strong Tang Hao was, he would be at their mercy!
Tang Hao naturally knew what they intended.
He flashed forward, swinging the Clear Sky Hammer as he charged at Chrysanthemum and Ghost!
Bolstered by Ring Detonation, Tang Hao's speed and strength now far surpassed those of an ordinary Level 97 Douluo!
In an instant, he was upon Chrysanthemum and Ghost!
Their expressions changed drastically. They could only abandon their Martial Soul Fusion and hurriedly join forces to defend themselves.
The two barely had time to cross their arms before their chests when the Clear Sky Hammer struck them squarely.
But how could the two of them possibly withstand the might of that blow?!
"Boom!"
The hammer smashed both of them straight into the ground, where they cosplayed as ginseng!
Faced with such a menacing figure, the five Enshrined found themselves unable to join forces at once.
It wasn't that they didn't want to, but that Tang Hao's strength after using Ring Detonation was simply too great.
They had already used up a great deal of Soul Power on their journey, and any one of them facing Tang Hao in this state alone would suffer grievous injuries.
Tang Hao seized the fleeting opening and hammered a path through by sheer force!
Then he took Tang San and Xiao Wu and charged out!
Lion wanted to pursue, but Azure Luan reached out and stopped him.
"Don't chase them!"
"Don't forget, our target is that scumbag Yu Xiaogang!"
"As for Tang Hao, we have plenty of time ahead of us!"
Only then did Lion reluctantly stop.
The five then turned their attention to Yu Xiaogang below.
Yu Xiaogang was still lying on the ground, unconscious as a dead pig.
Azure Luan was about to strike and kill him on the spot!
Just then, Chrysanthemum and Ghost, who had climbed out of the ground, hurried over and stopped the five Enshrined.
"Honored Enshrined, wait!"
"His Holiness the Pope specifically asked for Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong!"
"Please, honored Enshrined, don't be so hasty to strike!"
Azure Luan snorted coldly.
"Killing Yu Xiaogang is the Great Enshrined's order!"
"Does Bibi Dong mean to defy him?!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan had a sudden idea and hurriedly said with an apologetic smile:
"Lord Azure Luan, you've misunderstood."
"Yu Xiaogang dared to insult our Spirit Hall like this. Killing him just like that would be letting him off too easily!"
"Why not leave him to His Holiness the Pope?"
"His Holiness the Pope has plenty of ways to torture this scumbag!"
Hearing that, Azure Luan thought it seemed reasonable.
Then he snorted coldly.
"Take them away, then!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Jun and Jiang Mo each made a move, capturing Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong on the spot.
Then the seven of them sped off toward Spirit Hall, escorting Yu Xiaogang and the other two.
