Upon hearing this, the other elders all stroked their beards and burst into laughter. In their words, not one of them took the renowned Blue Silver King, who was famous throughout the continent, seriously.
They are elders of the Haotian Sect.
An elder of the number one sect on the mainland.
This pride is ingrained in their very being.
Even after years of seclusion, his arrogance and disdain for all living beings have not diminished in the slightest.
Seeing the elders' excited expressions, Tang Xiao slowly nodded.
His original intention was to play it safe, but the elders' attitudes reflected his true feelings.
"What the elders have said is also what I, the sect leader, think."
Tang Xiao's tone also carried a hint of the domineering aura that belonged to the Haotian Sect Master.
"Our Haotian Sect has been living in seclusion for a long time, not concerning itself with worldly affairs, but its might still remains. If that Blue Silver King really doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and dares to extend his claws, our Haotian Sect will not mind teaching him a lesson."
"Let him, and let everyone on the continent, understand that in this world, whose fist is bigger, and whose word is the rule!"
Upon hearing this, the four clan leaders, who had been filled with worry, breathed a long sigh of relief.
With Haotian Sect's words, they felt relieved.
Titan's previously worried face regained its gentle smile.
"With the sect leader and elders' words of reassurance, we can rest assured! It seems we were worrying unnecessarily; that Blue Silver King is indeed nothing to fear!"
However, Bai He, the patriarch of the Min clan, still had a slight frown on his brow, which did not completely relax.
Beside him, a tall, pretty girl saw this and spoke up somewhat dismissively.
"Grandpa, you don't need to be afraid. The elders of the Haotian Sect have all said that the Blue Silver King is nothing to fear."
The girl was Bai He's granddaughter, Bai Chenxiang.
She held her pointed chin high, her face carrying a hint of youthful arrogance.
"I heard that the Blue Silver King is just a boy of about twenty years old. No matter how powerful he is, how powerful can he be? Can he compare to His Majesty Xiaotian and so many elders?"
"that is!"
Beside him, Yang Wudi, the patriarch of the Po clan, spoke in a deep, muffled voice.
He glanced at the white crane, his tone tinged with mockery.
"Old White Crane Ghost, what are you afraid of? You've lived to be so old, yet you're not as brave as a little girl like Xiangxiang!"
Yang Wudi patted the black spear beside him, its blade gleaming with a cold light.
"So what if I'm a Title Douluo? My Soul-Shattering Spear isn't to be trifled with! It's designed to break through those self-righteous protective auras!"
Faced with everyone's advice and his granddaughter's confidence, Baihe simply sighed softly and said nothing more.
Others might not understand, but he knew it himself.
His martial spirit is the swift, which gives him an innate sense of danger beyond that of ordinary people.
From the moment Bai He heard the name Blue Silver King and learned that he was going to deal with the Haotian Sect, a vague unease lingered in his heart.
It was as if an invisible pair of eyes were watching them indifferently from above the clouds.
He became a Title Douluo at the age of sixteen and was even crowned a king.
He single-handedly defeated the Star Luo Empire, forcing them to cede territory and offer women as tribute, and to sue for peace.
Is such a domineering, powerful, and ruthless person really just talking the talk?
He had a vague feeling that things probably wouldn't end like this.
...
Shrek Academy, amidst ruins.
Amidst the ruins, the smoke and dust had not yet completely dissipated, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of broken earth and rocks.
Tang Qing stood with his hands behind his back, his black and gold-patterned royal robe fluttering gently in the breeze.
His gaze calmly fell on the girl in the pink dress hiding behind Tang San, his voice indifferent yet clearly reaching the ears of everyone present.
"Xiao Wu".
"A 100,000-year-old soul beast."
"Soft-boned Rabbit".
In an instant, the entire ruins fell into a deathly silence.
Tang San's pupils shrank to the most dangerous pinpoints in an instant!
His blood seemed to freeze at that moment, and a chill from the depths of his soul surged up, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
How is that possible?!
How could he know Xiao Wu's identity?!
This Blue Silver King... just what kind of monster is he?!
"A 100,000-year-old... Soul Beast?"
Ning Rongrong stood not far behind Tang Qing, her delicate face filled with astonishment.
She instinctively covered her mouth, her beautiful eyes wide open, staring at the trembling pink figure.
"Xiao Wu... is a soul beast? We've lived together for so many years, and I never even noticed..."
She muttered to herself, then suddenly looked up at Tang Qing, her voice trembling slightly as she confirmed.
"Your Highness...is this...is it true?"
Zhu Zhuqing, standing to the side, also showed some fluctuations in her expression, but she was much calmer than Ning Rongrong.
"Incredible. This seemingly innocent and naive girl is actually a ferocious beast that has lived for 100,000 years."
"However, since these words came from the prince's mouth, they must be true."
Zhu Zhuqing's affirmation shattered the last glimmer of hope in the hearts of the Shrek members.
"What the heck?"
Immovable King Zhao Wuji's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He pointed his thick finger at Xiao Wu, then turned to Flander, his mouth agape enough to fit an egg.
"Xiao Wu is a soul beast? And... a hundred thousand years old? Did I hear that right, Dean?!"
Flander pushed up the cracked frames of his glasses, his eyes behind the lenses filled with shock and confusion.
"Incomprehensible, utterly incomprehensible..."
He kept repeating those words, clearly his brain had completely shut down.
A 100,000-year-old soul beast disguised himself as a human student and lived in Shrek Academy for several years!
And he, the dean, was completely unaware!
"No, that's impossible!"
Liu Erlong raised his voice sharply, his emotions running high.
"How could my goddaughter be a soul beast! Xiao Wu is so kind and cute! She's clearly a human girl!"
Oscar's handsome face now wore an extremely strange expression.
He remembered that he had once had a vague feeling of affection for Xiao Wu, and his stomach churned.
"Xiao Wu is a soul beast? A rabbit? Damn, no wonder she has such a hot body and such long legs..."
He muttered to himself, his words tinged with absurdity, "As the saying goes, rabbits... well, it turns out it's true."
Ignoring the commotion, Dai Mubai stared intently at Xiao Wu with his wicked eyes and asked in a deep voice.
"Xiao Wu, tell us, is this true?"
"Bullshit! It's definitely fake!"
Ma Hongjun, who had been crippled and collapsed to the ground, roared with all his might.
"This Blue Silver King, he's got his eye on Xiao Wu! He just wants to find an excuse to steal Xiao Wu away!"
"That's his real purpose..."
"How could Xiao Wu possibly be a soul beast?!"
