"Let go of my son!!"
Tang Zhan's angry voice echoed throughout the venue.
Everyone watched Haotian Sect and Dark Shadow Palace with expressions of anticipation.
Ning Fengzhi was shocked by the swiftly concluded battle before him; first, the ring exploded, then Tang Hao was defeated with two punches.
It's simply unbelievable that a Soul Master could be toyed with by a Soul King and be powerless to fight back.
No matter how shocked they were, the facts were right in front of them: Tang Hao, that Soul Douluo, was still being trampled underfoot.
"Uncle Sword, was my decision just now a bit hasty...?"
Ning Fengzhi swallowed hard. His ingrained mindset led him to make the wrong decision; in their understanding, a Soul King could not possibly defeat a Soul Douluo.
This led Ning Fengzhi to directly decide to join the plans of the Haotian Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.
But now, Xu Xin has defied the odds and defeated Soul Douluo with his bizarre abilities, instantly putting Ning Fengzhi on the defensive. The cunning Ning Fengzhi had underestimated Xu Xin's abilities.
He just wanted to have his cake and eat it too, to maximize his profits, but he didn't expect to miscalculate this time... Xu Xin caught him completely off guard.
How could someone become a Palace Lord without some strength?
The strange thing is that Xu Xin's soul power level deceived them. Who could have imagined that a Soul King could defeat a Soul Douluo? This is the first time in the history of Douluo Continent...
Shock, nothing but shock and awe, they were completely stunned...
"What's done is done. Fengzhi, you should either try to make amends, or go all the way down this path!"
Sword Douluo spoke calmly, but even his usually placid eyes were now stirred with emotion. This child is destined for greatness!
If the other party weren't the master of a palace, he would have wanted to take him as a disciple.
Ning Fengzhi sighed, unsure of what to do. He had already sent someone to inform Yu Yuanzhen that they should stand together...
When Xu Xin revealed his Soul King cultivation level, he acted swiftly and decisively when making his decision; he should have waited.
But there's no going back in life, unless you can be reborn and start over...
"I'm disciplining my son, when did it become your place, you old hag, to interrupt!"
Xu Xin looked coldly at Tang Zhan on the stage, full of disdain. These old fogies are always so self-righteous!
"you..."
"Lord of the Shadow Palace, do you wish to perish here today?"
Tang Zhan looked at him coldly, then glanced around the Shadow Palace's location. The Shadow Palace's titles hadn't been brought along, and as long as they weren't there, it would be difficult for the two titles on the other side to save anyone from his grasp.
This is the confidence he has as a title holder.
He wasn't stupid. If there had been two more titles in the Shadow Palace, he wouldn't have acted this way. He was confident that he could kill Xu Xin under the command of two titled individuals.
Consequences? Heh heh, with my father, Tang Chen, around, what consequences could there be?!
"Are you threatening me?"
Xu Xin stomped hard, and Tang Hao's head was shoved into the ground. Tang Hao's eyes were bloodshot, but he could do nothing.
"Threatening me will come at a price!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Xin snapped his fingers, and several titled claw shadow soldiers appeared from behind the Haotian Sect members.
Before Tang Zhan could retract his hand pointing at Xu Xin, two titled Claw Shadow Soldiers attacked, and with a few swift movements, both of Tang Zhan's hands were snatched away.
The Claw Shadow Soldiers were incredibly fast; they attacked as soon as they appeared, and Tang Zhan didn't even have time to react before his hand was gone.
The remaining Claw Shadow Soldiers stood menacingly around the Haotian Sect members, ready to strike if they dared to make a move!
"Ahhh!!"
The tearing of his arm caused Tang Zhan to scream in agony...
His hands were gone, just like that! Tang Zhan was still in shock and hadn't reacted yet. His eyes were fixed on his two still bleeding arms, and his heart sank to the bottom.
"Father!"
Tang Xiao immediately stepped forward, and not only him, Ning Fengzhi also instantly used his martial soul to stop the bleeding and treat Tang Zhan.
For a moment, the people who were initially excited were completely stunned by this sudden turn of events. How did the war suddenly break out?
Xu Xin watched all this indifferently and threatened him, "That depends on whether you have the ability."
Tang Zhan stared at Xu Xin in shock. How could this be? These titles were hidden in the shadows! Why hadn't he noticed them? Why? I'm a title holder! Why couldn't I find them?!
That damned guy, he's so insidious.
"Shadow Palace Master, aren't you afraid my grandfather will cause you trouble?" Tang Xiao gritted his teeth and looked coldly at Xu Xin.
Tang Chen is their Haotian Sect's greatest source of confidence, their greatest reliance, and their strongest backing for doing whatever they want without fear of other forces.
Now that Tang Xiao has mentioned Tang Chen, if you know what's good for you, admit your mistake and apologize.
Otherwise, if his own grandfather comes out, no matter how many titles you bestow, you won't be able to stop him.
Tang Zhan gasped for breath, staring at Xu Xin with murderous intent. Once his father came out, this man would surely die.
"Heh heh, it seems Tang Chen gave you a lot of courage!"
"But Tang Chen doesn't work on me!"
"Kill them!"
Xu Xin spoke coldly, showing no fear whatsoever. The moment he finished speaking, the Claw Shadow Soldiers made their move.
Rip! Rip!
Apart from Tang Zhan, Tang Xiao, and Ah Jing, everyone Haotian Sect brought was beheaded the instant Xu Xin finished speaking; they were all dead beyond any doubt.
Xu Xin's actions demonstrated that Tang Chen was ineffective and useless to him.
"No...you can't do this, Shadow Lord, you deserve to die, you deserve to die!!!"
Tang Zhan roared helplessly, "They're all dead! They're all dead except for my son and daughter-in-law. I thought they hadn't brought any titles with them, but who knew they were all hiding in the shadows."
How dare he? How dare he? He's not afraid of his father, he's not afraid of his father at all.
Tang Chen's reputation proved ineffective for the first time, emboldening the other party. What exactly did he rely on? Was it the number of titles he held?
Xu Xin's strength lies in his numerous titles. Even if Tang Chen were to come, nearly two hundred titles await him.
If that doesn't work, just put the Ikazuki mask on Xiong Jun, and give him 90 more titles. Let's see who dares to fight then.
Right now, Xiong Jun is still fighting against the generals in the Shadow Palace, having a great time.
Tang Zhan only dared to threaten the other party because they didn't have many titles and because of his father's reputation. Now, he's backfired.
Xu Xin snapped his fingers again, and amidst Tang Zhan's roar, one of his legs was severed by a claw-like soldier that emerged from the ground.
Clang.
Tang Zhan collapsed to the ground.
"If you keep babbling on, next time it'll be your neck that's gone."
Xu Xin said coldly.
Xu Xin's domineering words instantly silenced Tang Zhan. The other party was truly audacious and genuinely didn't care about his father.
For a moment, everyone present fell silent. No one dared to say anything, fearing that this person might start a fight at the slightest provocation.
Tang Zhan swallowed hard, lying in his son's arms, looking utterly dejected. His pride was shattered in that moment.
Xu Xin's shocking move showed everyone that he was fearless and ready to face any challenge...
Threat? Heh heh, try threatening someone yourself.
Qian Xunji smiled and looked down. "Well done! Well done! It would be best if they all took care of me, so I could reap the benefits."
He'd love for a fight to break out so he could step in and take them down.
But he was disappointed.
Xu Xin picked up Tang Hao: "Now, who's whose dad?"
Tang Hao's face was filled with murderous intent, resentment, humiliation, helplessness... a mix of emotions welled up in his heart.
I lost, I lost to a Soul King, hahahaha, I actually lost.
Seeing the people from the Haotian Sect, he knew that this time, the reputation and prestige of their Haotian Sect would plummet to rock bottom!
He himself would become a sinner of the Clear Sky Sect, a sinner who couldn't even defeat a Soul King...
