Chapter 38 Tang Hao
Yang Jian withdrew his gaze, no longer looking at Chen Xin. With a wave of his left hand, Xiaotian Dog transformed into a white light and disappeared into his palm.
He turned and walked towards Yueguan, leaving behind a single sentence without looking back.
"It's time to leave."
Yue Guan followed beside him, glanced back at Chen Xin standing there, then at the corpse of the ancient banyan tree on the ground, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Are you really going to let him go?"
Yang Jian's lips curled up slightly, forming a cold arc.
"Gu Rong died at his hands, and this will haunt him with guilt for the rest of his life." Yang Jian's voice was very soft, only Yue Guan could hear it, "It's worse than killing him."
Yue Guan nodded thoughtfully.
"Besides," a hint of murderous intent flashed in Yang Jian's eyes, "I'm only letting him go today."
"Since the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School dared to intercept me, they should be prepared to be annihilated by me."
"At that time, he and everyone in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will die."
Yue Guan's mind went blank for a moment. Looking into Yang Jian's cold and sharp eyes, she sighed inwardly.
That kid is really ruthless.
[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 20 ...
That's normal, though.
He was inexplicably ambushed by two Title Douluos and almost lost his life. If he didn't retaliate, he would be a complete fool.
"In that case, why don't we return to the Spirit Hall now?" Yue Guan suggested. "Let's gather the army and head directly to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so they don't have to prepare in advance."
"No need," Yang Jian shook his head. "I'm enough on my own."
"But there's no rush now, let's go to Shrek Academy first."
Yue Guan looked at him and could tell that he already had a complete plan in mind, so she didn't ask any more questions.
"Then let's do it your way."
The carriage was destroyed in the previous battle, so Yue Guan carried Yang Jian and flew towards Soto City.
Along the way, Yue Guan hesitated several times, wanting to ask about Xiaotian Dog.
What is the origin of that dog?
Why would a separated beast spirit be that powerful?
-
But every time he was about to speak, he swallowed the words back.
Everyone has secrets.
Yang Jian will speak when she wants to.
Shrek Academy, in the eastern part of Soto City.
Yue Guan led Yang Jian to a small grove of trees outside the academy. Both of them had changed into clean clothes, and the bloodstains on their bodies had been cleaned up, leaving no trace of a battle.
Yue Guan stood under the shade of a tree, looking at the academy in the distance, his brows slightly furrowed.
This place—
broken.
It's not just ordinary broken.
The college's walls were made of stone, covered with moss, and in some places had even collapsed, revealing the courtyard inside.
The main gate consisted of two dilapidated wooden doors, with most of the paint peeling off to reveal the grayish-white wood underneath.
Above the door hangs a crooked plaque with four characters written on it: Shrek Academy.
"This is Shrek Academy?"
Yue Guan used his mental energy to investigate, and after a moment, the expression on his face became even stranger.
"Three Soul Saints, two Soul Emperors, and a few others in their twenties or thirties." He stroked his chin. "The teaching staff is decent, and the students can be considered geniuses."
"But why build the academy in such a place? And why is it so dilapidated?"
Yang Jian did not respond.
He was also using his mental power to investigate at this moment.
Having cultivated the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, Yang Jian's mental strength was comparable to that of a Soul Douluo-level expert, silently covering the entire academy.
He made a discovery very quickly.
Yu Xiaogang is not here.
That outcast of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex clan, that theoretical master who proposed the "Ten Core Theories of Martial Souls," that teacher of Tang San, is not at Shrek Academy.
This means that Tang San has not yet gone to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for his third spirit ring, nor has he obtained the external spirit bone, the Eight Spider Lances.
"It's not too late."
Yang Jian nodded to himself.
Just then, Yue Guan suddenly let out a low cry.
"A 100,000-year-old soul beast!"
He grabbed Yang Jian's shoulder, his face full of excitement, his eyes shining.
"Little Jian! Guess what I just discovered?" His voice was low, but the excitement in his tone was impossible to hide. "A 100,000-year-old soul beast! A 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form!"
"You're incredibly lucky! You just happened to be short of a 100,000-year spirit ring, and this one just fell into your lap!"
"You wait, I'll go and catch it for you right now! Kill it and absorb its spirit ring!"
He couldn't wait to rush into Shrek Academy.
"Uncle Yue."
Yang Jian reached out and stopped Yue Guan.
Yue Guan was taken aback and stopped in her tracks.
"A 100,000-year soul ring is good," Yang Jian shook his head, "but it also depends on whether it's suitable for you."
Yue Guan was taken aback for a moment, then calmed down.
Yes.
Yang Jian's first four spirit rings all came from the Titan Giant Ape, and they were all power-type and amplification-type spirit rings.
If the attributes of this transformed soul beast are not suitable for him, absorbing it rashly would not only waste a precious 100,000-year soul ring, but could also harm him.
"Furthermore," Yang Jian glanced in a direction outside the academy, "Didn't Uncle Yue notice there's another person nearby?"
Yue Guan was stunned.
He quickly expanded the range of his mental energy's detection, probing in the direction Yang Jian indicated.
A moment later, his expression changed.
Sure enough, there was someone hiding in the shadows there.
The aura is very strong.
It was so powerful that even he felt a sense of pressure.
"A Titled Douluo, at least level 95!"
Yue Guan's pupils contracted slightly. He gritted his teeth, a bad feeling rising in his mind: "Could it be that he's also set his sights on that transformed soul beast?"
Yue Guan concentrated his mental energy to the extreme, trying to see the person's face clearly.
The next second, his expression completely changed.
"Tang Hao!"
Yue Guan's voice even changed tone.
He will never forget that face.
Twelve years ago, this was the same man who severely injured Pope Qian Xunji with a single blow, ultimately leading to Qian Xunji's death.
Tang Hao.
Haotian Douluo.
He was once the youngest titled Douluo on the mainland.
How did he end up here?
In the distance, under a large tree.
A burly middle-aged man leaned against a tree trunk, his gaze fixed on the direction of Shrek Academy with a gloomy expression.
His hair was messy, his face was covered in stubble, and his clothes were tattered; he looked like a down-on-his-luck homeless man.
But his eyes were as sharp as an eagle's.
"Chrysanthemum Pass?"
Tang Hao frowned deeply, a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes.
Why are people from the Spirit Hall here?
Had his whereabouts been exposed?
Shouldn't.
If the Spirit Hall had truly discovered its location, it's impossible that they would have only sent Yi Yueguan over.
At the very least, it will involve ghosts and demons, or even Bibi Dong herself taking action.
Could it be that the Spirit Hall thinks they are easy targets and that sending a month-long prisoner is enough?
A cold smile curled at the corner of Tang Hao's mouth.
His gaze immediately fell on Yang Jian beside Yue Guan, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
Level 50?
He looks only a few years older than Xiao San, yet he's already reached level 50?
Tang Hao's eyes turned dangerous.
When did the Spirit Hall produce such a monster?
No.
Tang Hao's eyes turned cold as he made a decision.
Today, we must not only kill Yue Guan.
We also need to eliminate this genius from the Spirit Hall.
We cannot allow such a scourge to continue to grow.
He straightened up from the tree trunk, flipped his right hand, and the Haotian Hammer appeared in his palm.
Then they headed towards Shrek Academy.
