Before Brother Scarface could finish speaking, they heard an utterly perverse laugh; unsurprisingly, Chrysanthemum Douluo had caught up.
The laughter carried immense, suffocating pressure!
Tang San and Yu Xiaogang looked grim, scanning their surroundings from left to right, but saw no one in sight.
Brother Scarface pointed to the sky behind them and said, "Up there, look quickly!"
Tang San and Yu Xiaogang followed his gaze and saw over a hundred figures flying through the sky, densely packed like a flock of birds.
"Wait?"
Yu Xiaogang said in disbelief, "So many people... and they can actually fly?"
Tang San was equally incredulous. "Teacher, they don't seem to have flying-type Beast Martial Souls. How can they all fly?"
Yu Xiaogang was completely bewildered—he didn't know either!
Everyone in Spirit Hall can fly?
Brother Scarface explained, "Xiaogang, did you forget what we told you when we left the city? Spirit Hall somehow mastered lost Soul Tool technology from who knows where."
"All of those people are using Flying Soul Tools. Originally, our only chance was to flee in a straight line on fast horses, but now both directions are blocked. We have no way out."
"Flying Soul Tools?"
Yu Xiaogang was utterly dumbfounded. What on earth was that?!
"Damn little thief, how dare you steal my horse! You're dead!"
Just as Yu Xiaogang and Tang San were dumbfounded, Azure Phoenix Douluo and Ghost Douluo led their group and caught up from the other side.
"We're finished!"
Tang San's face turned extremely ugly.
In the shadows.
Su Yan was thoroughly amused by Azure Phoenix Douluo.
"Was that Azure Phoenix Douluo shouting just now?"
"That's completely absurd!"
At first, Qian Daoliu and his group didn't quite understand what it meant.
But thinking it over carefully...
Good grief.
What do you mean, steal your horse?
[Liu Erlong: The show is starting! Grand General No. 9, hurry and bring us into the Map of Mountains and Rivers' cinema. I want to watch the live stream with background music.]
[Dugu Yan: A true connoisseur!]
[Tang Yuehua: Look at you, getting impatient again?]
[Tang Yuehua: It doesn't matter whether we go into the Map of Mountains and Rivers for background music or not, because Su Yan will definitely sing.]
[Ma Xiaotao: Hahaha!!]
[CallMeYourMajesty: Jie-jie-jie! This meow just practiced again. Let me sing for you guys next, meow!]
[CallMeYourMajesty: If you open your eyes in a nightmare~ facing the cruel world~]
[Dark Avenger: Cruel, truly cruel. Tang San and his master are surrounded from front and back.]
[Group Member No. 9: Wait a moment. Good music must be saved for crucial moments. Now isn't the time, nor is this the right song for what's coming next.]
[CallMeYourMajesty: Then what should I sing now, meow?]
[Group Member No. 9: Ask Xiao Wu.]
[Xiao Wu:???]
Meanwhile, back at the scene.
After Chrysanthemum Douluo revealed himself, Ghost Douluo on the other side showed up as well.
"Yo?"
"Didn't expect an unexpected bonus. Old Ghost, what are you doing here?"
Ghost Douluo said solemnly, "We were hunting down Tang Hao in Soto City. This little thief snatched our horses and shouted that he was Tang Hao, leading us all the way here."
"Ge-ge-ge~"
Chrysanthemum Douluo chuckled, "Then this truly is double good fortune!"
"Men, cripple them first."
Tang San was also in despair at this moment, gritting his teeth as he said, "Teacher, it seems escaping today will be nearly impossible. We can only fight to the death."
Yu Xiaogang turned pale with rage and snarled, "Damn Spirit Hall! I, Yu Xiaogang, swear that if I don't die today, I will destroy you all at any cost!"
Everyone:???
In the shadows.
Hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Su Yan couldn't hold back his laughter.
Qian Daoliu, Golden Crocodile Douluo, and the rest couldn't help laughing either.
Only Bibi Dong looked grim.
Qian Daoliu looked at Bibi Dong with a strange expression and asked, "Bibi Dong, why aren't you laughing? Are you just naturally averse to laughing?"
"Hahaha!"
Su Yan, Rakshasa God, and the others were even more amused.
Bibi Dong snapped in annoyance, "Don't push me to beat you up!"
She was furious.
[Ning Rongrong: Your Holiness the Pope, why aren't you laughing? Are you just naturally averse to laughing?]
[Liu Erlong: Bibi Dong, you know I have had no children in my Life. If you dare hurt Xiao San...]
[Bai Chenxiang: Destroy at any cost!]
[Shui Yue'er: Destroy! Destroy! Destroy every single one of you!]
"Hahaha!!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo clutched his stomach, trembling with laughter. "Yu Xiaogang, just based on you?"
"A rank twenty-nine Soul Grandmaster who broke through the age of fifty, yet you claim you'll destroy our Spirit Hall?"
"Hahaha!!"
The Spirit Masters closing in around them were also laughing their heads off.
Tang San's expression was awkward as well. Leave it to you, Teacher!
You truly dare to boast.
"Spirit Hall, what do you really want?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo smiled and replied, "Nothing much. Just cripple you and take you all back."
"Get them!"
At Chrysanthemum Douluo's order, the surrounding Spirit Masters rapidly formed an encirclement, activating their Martial Souls to strike.
At that moment, Brother Scarface took a step forward, shielding Yu Xiaogang behind him.
Seeing this familiar scene, Yu Xiaogang's heart instantly tightened, and he shouted, "Brother Scarface, what... what are you trying to do?"
Brother Scarface said with utmost seriousness, "Xiaogang, I told you: now that Brother Jie is gone, I will protect you from now on."
"Anyone who wants to hurt you will have to step over my corpse first."
"Even if it's Spirit Hall, even if it's a Titled Douluo."
"What?"
Tang San was visibly stunned upon hearing this, turning his head to look at Scarface in complete bewilderment.
Wait, what? Bro, those are my lines!
What in the Blue Silver Grass!
Where are your manners?
At this moment, Yu Xiaogang's eyes welled with tears. "Brother Scarface, why must you do this? This had nothing to do with you in the first place."
Brother Scarface spoke softly, "Xiaogang, don't cry. My Life was saved by you in the first place. One year ago in Spirit Hall's dungeon, if not for you, I would have already been killed by A Jie."
"In a moment, I will break open their encirclement. Take that chance to escape."
"Brother Scarface~"
Yu Xiaogang was overwhelmed with grief.
Brother Scarface smiled faintly and said, "What A Jie could do, I, Scarface, can do for you just the same."
"Life... Sacrifice!"
Seeing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo had a conflicted look on his face as he said,
"Even if we captured you and brought you back, you wouldn't die. But now that you've burned your Life, this time you really will die."
"Brother Scarface, is it really worth it?"
Scarface glanced at Chrysanthemum Douluo and replied with absolute seriousness:
"It is!"
"All of you, get out of my way!"
In an instant, Scarface's strength erupted to the level of a Soul Saint; blasting out a Sixth Soul Skill, he instantly blew away the entire group of Spirit Masters blocking the way ahead.
"Xiaogang, run!"
Tang San froze for a second, feeling like something was deeply off, but there was no time to overthink. He pulled Yu Xiaogang onto the horse and bolted.
At this moment, Ghost Douluo spoke up:
"He, for her sake, could give up his Life, committing suicide to extract a bone."
"She, for his sake, could burn her Life, sacrificing a Spirit Ring."
"So this is what love is!"
[Xiao Wu:???]
