Dugu Bo's fingertip steadily pierced into Luo San Pao's spine, and then his Spirit Power surged, creating a tight connection with Yu Xiaogang's Spirit. Streams of brilliant golden energy, like a rolling hot current, rapidly gathered along the spine, then frantically rushed toward Dugu Bo's fingertip. The golden energy shimmered with a dazzling light, seemingly intelligent as it desperately fought back, yet it was helplessly pulled toward Dugu Bo's fingertip.
"Such pure bloodline energyâit's excellent!"
With a slight move of his finger, a sinister smile appeared on Dugu Bo's face. He secretly felt the powerful Golden Sacred Dragon bloodline constantly churning within his body.
When Luo San Pao's spine was firmly impaled by Dugu Bo's fingertip, Yu Xiaogang lost his center of gravity, as if his entire aura suddenly collapsed.
His face instantly turned pale, cold sweat streamed continuously down his forehead, his lips turned blue, and his breathing was fast yet broken, each breath becoming extremely difficult. His hands hung weakly, his body trembled slightly, and he lay on the ground like an invertebrate.
The feeling of emptiness caused by the extraction of the Golden Sacred Dragon bloodline made Yu Xiaogang's Soul feel completely drained. Even the most basic Spirit Power circulation, which he normally performed, could no longer be carried out.
"No, Xiaogang!"
"Dugu Bo, if you dare harm Xiaogang, I'll kill you!" Liu Erlong's heart instantly twisted as if by a knife as she watched this scene. She sobbed uncontrollably, almost losing her Soul. She trembled as she scrambled to her feet, wanting to rush over and save Yu Xiaogang. However, after only two steps, she collapsed heavily to the ground due to physical weakness, her fingers clutching the ground as she let out a weak whimper.
On the other side, Tang San's eyes were red, and he was panting heavily. He wouldn't be foolish enough to commit suicide, but instead, he shouted loudly:
"Dugu Bo, you dare harm my teacher? You're asking for your own death!"
After speaking, his figure flashed, and he used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, shooting toward Dugu Bo.
"Didn't Teacher say that Dad has always been secretly protecting me?"
"If that's true, why hasn't he made a move yet? With his strength, he shouldn't be afraid of Dugu Bo, right? Or is there someone stronger than him hiding nearby?"
"It looks like Dad will only move when I'm in real danger."
Thinking this, a glint flashed in Tang San's eyes. His three Spirit Rings simultaneously lit up, and the dark Blue Silver Grass surged toward Dugu Bo like a tide.
"An ant trying to stop a chariotâyou overestimate yourself!"
With a cold snort, Dugu Bo merely raised his hand slightly. The moment the Blue Silver Grass touched the edge of his palm, it melted away as quickly as ice and snow encountering fire. Immediately after, he used suction with his palm. A powerful pull instantly dragged Tang San toward him.
Tang San felt as if his body was hooked and he couldn't resist, rushing straight toward Dugu Bo. As soon as he arrived in front of Dugu Bo, the Eight Spider Lances on his back instinctively stabbed out simultaneously.
Just as the Eight Spider Lances were about to strike Dugu Bo, a green light instantly spread from his body. The Eight Spider Lances landed on the green light, only splashing eight circles of emerald green ripples, completely unable to penetrate it.
"Boy, since you like to seek death, I'll send you to Hell first," Dugu Bo said in a low and sinister voice, a cold and stern look flashing in his eyes.
He was about to deliver a killing blow to Tang San when, suddenly, Flender, enduring his weakness, roared:
"Tang Chuan! No matter what, Tang San is your biological brother! We can die, but how can you just stand by and watch him be killed by this old poisonous fellow? Don't you care about any brotherly affection?"
Hearing this, Dugu Bo's expression instantly changed. The hand gripping Tang San's throat also loosened slightly. His gaze then turned to Tang Chuan, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes.
Not far away, Ye Lingling, who had been watching the show, also widened her eyes and looked at Tang Chuan. She said incredulously, "Tang San? Tang Chuan? He... he's your brother?"
Xiao Rui'er, however, seemed to have known the relationship between Tang Chuan and Tang San for a long time. She simply watched everything calmly, without the slightest surprise in her eyes.
Seeing everyone look at him, Tang Chuan remained silent for a moment before slowly stepping forward. His expression was calm, yet with a hint of playfulness, as he spoke:
"Dean Flender, your eyesight is quite good. I didn't expect you to still recognize me even with such a big change in my appearance."
Upon hearing this, Flender raised his eyebrows slightly and said coldly:
"My Spirit is the Four-Eyed Owl, and I'm best at discerning everything. These two girls beside you are both from the Royal Fight Team, and you are so close to Dugu Bo. Qin Ming once told me that in the entire Heaven Dou Royal Academy, the only person with a good relationship with Dugu Bo, besides his granddaughter, is you. Plus, the Spirit Ability you just releasedâI saw the Blue Silver Grass Spirit and a strong aura of vitality. Given all of that, who else could it be but Tang San's older brother, Tang Chuan?"
Gently clapping his hands, a look of appreciation appeared on Tang Chuan's face, and he said seriously:
"Excellent analysis, worthy of the Four-Eyed Owl Flender. That's right, I am Tang Chuan, and I'm also Tang San's biological brother."
Upon hearing this, Tang San's face was filled with disbelief. He never expected his brother's appearance to have changed so dramatically. He wanted to ask, but Dugu Bo had his throat tightly locked, so his face was flushed, and he couldn't make any sound.
"What did you say?" Dugu Bo's expression became somewhat unpleasant. He stared intently at Tang Chuan and muttered in a low voice, "This... this Tang San is really your biological brother?"
Tang Chuan nodded, his expression calm, as if none of this concerned him.
"Then why didn't you say so earlier? What do we do now? You're also Tang Hao's sonâI can't kill you too, can I?" Dugu Bo instantly fumed, his beard bristling and his eyes wide, muttering. "Since this Tang San is your biological brother, how can you sit still? Aren't you afraid I'll really kill him?" Saying this, he looked as if he was about to explode, his eyes filled with anxiety.
"Sigh..." Tang Chuan sighed, his eyes as cold as if devoid of emotion. Then he found a bluestone to sit on, his posture relaxed, and said indifferently:
"This guy has already gone down a wicked path, cultivating by sucking human blood. If you want to kill him, then kill him. Even I want to kill him now, so why would I stop you?"
Hearing this, Dugu Bo instantly froze, his eyes filled with disbelief. He felt that these two people in front of him were not like biological brothers at all, but rather like enemies with deep grudges, without a trace of bloodline affection.
On the other side, Flender, Liu Erlong, Tang San, and even Ye Lingling not far away, couldn't help but be stunned. They looked at Tang Chuan with astonished faces, never expecting him to say such a thing. Are they really loving brothers?
At this moment, Flender was also too awkward to say a word. He originally thought that exposing Tang Chuan's identity might give Tang San a glimmer of hope, but he didn't expect it to add fuel to the fire.
"Then if I really kill him? You won't tell Tang Hao about this, will you?" Dugu Bo frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said with a mixture of doubt and belief.
"Old poisonous fellow, you can relax about that. Do you still remember Tang Hao's state when he saw me before? He probably wishes he could kill me himself now, so how could I go and tell him? I am now on the same side as you!"
Dugu Bo immediately recalled something upon hearing this. Judging by Tang Hao's ruthless methods toward Tang Chuan before, he probably truly wanted to put him to death. Dugu Bo then nodded slightly, a smile playing on his lips, and said:
"That's true... I just didn't expect your family's way of interacting to be so strange. The older brother wants to kill the younger brother, and the father wants to kill the son. How interesting. There's absolutely no atmosphere of a loving family."
Speaking of this, his gaze fell on Tang San again. His palm slowly tightened, and he said coldly, "Since that's the case, I'll send him to Hell now."
