Chapter 54: Di Tian Strikes and Heavily Wounds Tang Hao, Chu Chen Kills Xiao Wu!
The sudden attack also left Chu Chen momentarily stunned; where had this attack come from?
"The strength of the person who struck is too terrifying; a single blow was enough to heavily wound Tang Hao in the Ring Explosion state. Who is it..."
Tang Hao was seriously injured and knew he was powerless to save the situation. It was clear he couldn't rescue Xiao Wu today, so he had no choice but to turn around, grab Tang San, and flee into the distance.
"No!!! Xiao Wu!!!"
Tang San roared and struggled incessantly, but Tang Hao knocked him unconscious with a single blow.
Dugu Bo rushed to Chu Chen's side and asked with concern, "Chu Chen, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, let's go."
Chu Chen nodded and then left the area with Dugu Bo. At this time, the Soul Power of Flender's trio had been exhausted, forcing their fusion to dissolve, and Zhao Wuji was also injured.
Li Yusong's Dragon Pattern Stick was even shattered. Facing the Snake Lance Man in Black, their strength was far from enough...
Seeing Chu Chen nod, the Snake Lance Man in Black also quickly vanished from the spot.
Yu Xiaogang watched blankly as Chu Chen took Xiao Wu away. He said angrily, "Chu Chen! Put Xiao Wu down! I'm willing to guide your Blue Silver Grass cultivation path! I will definitely make you a Titled Douluo as well!"
"You can't possibly absorb a 100,000-year soul ring right now!"
"Boom!"
A Blue Silver Emperor plant blasted out. Liu Erlong's expression changed, and she lunged over, which prevented Yu Xiaogang's body from being pierced through. However, this strike from the Blue Silver Emperor directly severed one of Yu Xiaogang's arms.
Yu Xiaogang lost an arm, his face was pale, and he nearly fainted from the pain.
"Noisy."
Chu Chen's gaze swept over Yu Xiaogang as if looking at a dead dog, and then he and Dugu Bo quickly vanished into the darkness...
Di Tian also followed at this moment, with a light in his hand that had not yet dissipated; it was indeed he who had struck just now.
...
"Who was it that helped me just now? Did Qian Renxue send Porcupinefish Douluo as well? But even Porcupinefish Douluo doesn't have such powerful strength."
Chu Chen had doubts in his heart and spoke them to Dugu Bo.
"That strike directly shattered space. It seems there is a very powerful existence behind you helping out. You kid, you really have good luck!"
Dugu Bo still had lingering fears; he had underestimated Tang Hao. He was simply no match for Tang Hao in the Ring Explosion state.
If Tang Hao hadn't been focused entirely on Tang San and Xiao Wu and instead had been intent on killing him, his end would likely have been miserable...
"Regardless, the goal has been achieved."
Chu Chen stopped thinking about it for now; as for who exactly helped him, he would eventually find out later.
At that time, it would not be too late to give his thanks.
"Let's go, Old Poison. We're going back to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Only by absorbing this fifth spirit ring there will I have the greatest certainty."
Dugu Bo nodded, and he and Chu Chen quickly vanished into the darkness, leaving Heaven Dou City and heading deep into the Sunset Forest.
...
Inside the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.
The Snake Lance Douluo, who had previously helped Chu Chen, appeared in the shadows. He said respectfully to Xue Qinghe, "Young Lord, the mission has been completed, though an unexpected situation seems to have occurred."
"Oh? What happened? Chu Chen wasn't injured, was he?"
Xue Qinghe asked with a calm expression.
So, the Snake Lance Douluo recounted how someone had secretly struck and heavily wounded Tang Hao, which piqued Xue Qinghe's interest.
"It seems this dear friend of mine is not simple at all; he has a powerful expert helping him from behind, haha..."
The Snake Lance Douluo thought for a moment before speaking, "However, Chu Chen also seemed very confused, not knowing who had helped him."
Xue Qinghe didn't care about these things. He waved his hand, signaling the Snake Lance Douluo to leave. "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle She. Please protect Chu Chen in secret later; I'm worried Tang Hao might seek revenge."
"Understood, Young Lord."
After the Snake Lance Douluo left, Xue Qinghe slowly walked to the window, gazing at the soft moonlight on the horizon with a smile touching his lips.
"Chu Chen, I don't know when I will be able to tell you everything about me. I hope that when that time comes... you and I can still have the same relationship we have now."
"Or perhaps, take it a step further..."
...
"Boom!"
Tang Hao landed in a mountain range with Tang San. Tang Hao could no longer hold it in and vomited a large mouthful of blood.
He stared in horror at the wound on his chest that looked like it was blasted out by a sharp claw, his shock beyond words. "This attack... could it be a Soul Beast? Does that kid actually have a Soul Beast helping him?!"
"Ah Yin... no... I'm so useless. Not only did I fail to protect you, but I couldn't even protect my son's beloved..."
Tang Hao's anger attacked his heart, and he fainted directly.
A short while later, Tang San woke up. Seeing Tang Hao's half-dead state, he was startled and hurried to circulate his Mysterious Heaven Skill Internal Energy to help Tang Hao recover from his injuries.
But he suddenly burst into tears; his Xiao Wu was likely doomed.
"Chu Chen, I, Tang San, will definitely kill you!"
It was a long time before Tang Hao woke up. He looked at Tang San, tears streaming down his old face. "Little San, I've failed you... your mother is gone..."
Tang San: "???"
Wait, wasn't she already gone when I was born?
Tang Hao told Tang San everything. After hearing that his Blue Silver Emperor could no longer undergo Awakening and that his mother had been killed by Chu Chen, losing the chance for resurrection, Tang San felt as if he had lost his Three Ethereal Souls and Seven Corporeal Spirits.
"No! Chu Chen! Fuck you!"
...
Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
When Xiao Wu woke up from her coma, she saw Chu Chen sitting not far from her, looking at her with a calm expression.
"How is... my brother..." Xiao Wu asked blankly, her eyes lifeless. Perhaps she had already fallen into complete despair, her heart as cold as ash.
"He's dead."
Chu Chen answered casually.
As for the truth that Tang San wasn't dead, it was impossible for Xiao Wu to know. Before she died, Chu Chen wanted her to feel despair.
Xiao Wu's delicate body trembled, and tears fell uncontrollably. She stared at Chu Chen with a vicious gaze, as if she wanted to kill him. "You... why were you unwilling to let him go? Your target was me!"
"Looking at it that way, you seem willing to accept death calmly. Why don't you just Sacrifice yourself to me? It would save me the trouble of absorbing a 100,000-year soul ring."
Chu Chen smiled and walked over to Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu stared coldly at Chu Chen and cursed, "In your dreams!"
"Puff!"
In the next moment, her heart was pierced by a Blue Silver Emperor. The bloody scene was horrifying. Chu Chen looked indifferently as her eyes gradually lost focus. He was never someone who was soft-hearted; it was better to kill her quickly to avoid any further complications.
Xiao Wu's mouth was still moving, clearly wanting to say something, but she could no longer make a sound.
Her legs twitched a few times instinctively, and then she completely stopped moving, collapsing on the ground...
A wave of fluctuations that even distorted space erupted; this was the surging energy produced by the death of a Hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast. It then condensed into a bright red 100,000-year soul ring, floating before Chu Chen.
"Let's begin, my first 100,000-year soul ring."
