Everyone was bewildered.
A Spirit Master captain in charge of the guard raised his great sword and asked Yan:
"Who are you?"
Yan: ???
Yan could only see the other person's mouth moving, but his ears were ringing so loudly he couldn't hear a word being said.
Xie Yue and his group hurriedly stepped forward and explained, "We are students from the Spirit Hall Academy, and we are partners of the Saintess, Hu Liena."
"Captain Zhao, you should recognize me; I am the Saintess's brother, Xie Yue."
The guard captain nodded slightly and cast an inquiring look:
"And him?"
Xie Yue looked at Yan, whose face was pitch-black, and said with a complicated expression:
"He is Yan, that kid whose martial spirit is the Flame Lord."
Sigh.
Liam already told you to run further away, why didn't you listen, kid?
The guard captain nodded and ordered his men to withdraw, then hurried toward the high platform to report to Bibi Dong:
"Reporting to Your Excellency."
"Just now, it was a friend of the Holy Maiden who released a sealed soul skill."
Bibi Dong nodded slightly, signaling the guard to step back. She fixed her gaze below and announced:
"At the same time, I would like to announce another matter: our Spirit Hall's Holy Maiden, Hu Liena, has already pledged her life to a prodigy named Liam."
"The noise you all heard just now was a weapon that Master Liam has been secretly developing for our Spirit Hall. As for its power, you have all witnessed it with your own eyes and ears."
After saying this,
Bibi Dong gave Liam a look, signaling him to step out and walk a bit so everyone could get a good look at his face.
Liam felt helpless, but walked forward.
Bibi Dong, that person, was likely taking this opportunity to announce to the world that he was the husband of Hu Liena, the Saintess of the Spirit Hall, and that he belonged to the Spirit Hall.
Below him.
Many Spirit Masters who had just been treating Hu Liena as their goddess were now wearing expressions of heartbreak.
How could such an outstanding Saintess already be in a relationship?
No way!
We oppose this union.
Liam looked at the dense crowd of Spirit Masters lined up below and pondered for a moment. Since he had already stepped up for Hu Liena,
he might as well establish his authority while he was at it!
Liam channeled his internal energy and shouted:
"Long live the Spirit Hall!"
In an instant.
Thunderous echoes roared in the ears of the thousands present. The sound, amplified by Liam's hundred years of internal energy, was no less powerful than the nine earth-shattering explosions that had just occurred.
The next moment, ten thousand people on the field shouted in unison:
"Long live the Spirit Hall!"
"Long live!"
Those soul masters who had just opposed this marriage were now dumbfounded.
What the hell?
How is the Saintess's man also this fierce?
Meanwhile, elsewhere.
Tang San and his side were miserable.
As the saying goes, one man's joy is another man's sorrow. While Hu Liena of the Spirit Hall was overjoyed, Qian Renxue at the Crown Prince's residence was very unhappy.
When Qian Renxue is unhappy, Tang Hao and Tang San are bound to have bad luck.
It was broad daylight, so the Snake Lance Douluo couldn't very well go and play a ghost to teach them a lesson, but they could arrange for prisoners in the dungeon to do it!
When it comes to torturing people, prisoners are the true professionals.
In the dungeon.
Tang Hao and his son Tang San had been doing fine sharing a cell when, suddenly, the door opened and four prisoners were thrown in.
Tang Hao and Tang San instantly looked cautious, staring at the four people who had just been thrown in. They saw that these four were strong and sturdy, exuding an evil aura.
The father and son couldn't help but tighten up, feeling that something was terribly wrong!
One of the prisoners, who had a scar on his right cheek, stood up from the ground and walked straight toward Tang San. Before Tang San could react... slap!
It was fast!
He slapped Tang San directly across the face.
"What are you doing?"
Tang San was instantly furious and gritted his teeth. Why the hell are you slapping me for no reason?
The scarred man said coldly:
"Didn't you see us come in?"
"Get up for me, crawl over to the urinal in the corner and crouch down. You have no sense at all; sleep with the urinal tonight."
"You..."
Tang San clenched his fists.
Bastard!
You have already invited death!
Slap.
The scarred man slapped him again, then kicked Tang San to the ground, went up, and started stomping repeatedly on his face.
"Not satisfied, right?"
"I'll beat you until you are satisfied today."
Bang, bang, bang—!
Seeing his son being bullied like this, Tang Hao was instantly enraged and shouted:
"Damn it!"
"Stop right there! How dare you bully my son, Tang Hao?"
Slap.
A fat man, who had been thrown in along with the scarred man, jumped up and slapped Tang Hao across the face.
"Did I not hit you, or was I just hitting him?"
"You dare hit me?"
Tang Hao was exploding with rage. It was truly a case of a tiger fallen to the plains being bullied by dogs; he was actually being humiliated by such trash?
Bang.
The other two prisoners made their move at this moment, stepping forward to kick Tang Hao flying. The three of them surrounded Tang Hao and began to pummel him with punches and kicks.
"Ah!"
"Stop! You bastards, you damn bastards, you're looking for death!"
The scarred man kicked Tang San aside and looked at Tang Hao, saying:
"Oh?"
"We've run into a tough one today. Come on, brothers! Push him into the urine bucket to sober him up. Let's see whose mouth is harder, his or our fists."
Upon hearing this, Tang Hao was instantly terrified:
"You..."
"This is outrageous! I am the Clear Sky Douluo! I am from the Clear Sky Sect! If you dare to humiliate us like this, once we get out, I will definitely tear you into ten thousand pieces!"
"Wuu wuu wuu... No! No, blegh!"
Tang Hao's threats and resistance were completely ineffective against the four heinous villains.
If his spirit bones hadn't been extracted, Tang Hao might still have had a chance to fight back at the risk of his life.
But!
Having already been severely wounded and now with his spirit bones removed, he was essentially worse than a cripple.
At this moment, he finally experienced the treatment of a disobedient prisoner in the Heavenly Prison. The previous beatings and scuffles were merely minor tactics.
What was truly terrifying about this Heavenly Prison were the methods used by prisoners to torture other prisoners.
"Ugh!"
Seeing his father being shoved into a wooden slop bucket, Tang San could not hold it in and vomited.
Scarface turned his head, his gaze focused, and a smile appeared on his face as he said:
"Not used to it?"
"Don't worry, you'll be next soon enough."
Tang San was horrified at these words; he covered his mouth and couldn't help but step back, his eyes full of fear.
"Don't come over here!"
The scar-faced man sneered coldly:
"Brothers, grab that little brat. Since they are father and son, we must ensure they share both blessings and misfortunes together!"
"Let the father and son drink together!"
"No... don't come over here!"
Tang San was scared to death. He reached out to search his clothes, but his soul tool storage device had been confiscated by Xue Xing's men on the very first day he arrived.
Everything he owned had been taken away.
He had no hidden weapons left to use!
And so.
Tang San immediately attempted to use the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, but just as he showed off his moves, the scar-faced man kicked him against the wall, causing him to spit out a mouthful of black blood.
Having had his soul bones gouged out and having been tortured for several days, Tang San was now like a cripple, with no physical strength to sustain him.
"No!"
"No——!!"
Despite Tang San's futile and desperate resistance, his head was forced into the urine bucket by the four scar-faced men.
"Ahh! Glug glug!~"
Outside.
Snake Lance Douluo couldn't help but gasp in shock.
Damn?
Tragic!
Truly too tragic!
I can go and tell the Young Master about this; it will surely cheer the Young Master up.
The Young Master will definitely be happy!
