Just then, the expressions of Tang Chen and Qian Renxue changed at the same time. They both felt a very strong and icy Killing Intent coming from the sky without any warning. It locked onto their location immediately.
Tang Chen shouted that it was not good and someone was above them. With a low shout, a warning went off in both of their hearts. They worked together perfectly and stopped their attacks.
Their Domains quickly went back into their bodies. They did not even have time to look at each other. Their bodies moved fast like they were hit by electricity. They ran away in two different directions.
Just as they moved away, a scary sound of whistling air came down from the sky. It was tearing through the air very fast. The next second, a hammer so big that it made people stare in shock hit the ground.
It looked like a falling meteor and slammed into the spot where the two of them had just been fighting. A deafening and terrifying explosion happened suddenly. The ground shook hard as if there was an earthquake.
A strong shockwave moved out in a circle. It carried a lot of gravel and mud with it. The force snapped or pulled up all the trees nearby. Dust and smoke went high into the sky and filled the small forest.
Tang Chen and Qian Renxue stopped themselves far away. Their clothes moved in the strong wind. They looked very serious as they stared at the center of the dust cloud.
As the dust slowly went away, a huge hole appeared in the ground. In the middle of the deep pit, a man stood there. He was a middle-aged man wearing a gray cloak. He looked very strong and big. He rested a giant hammer on his broad shoulder.
The head of the hammer was as big as a water vat and it gave off a cold Killing Intent. The hood of his gray robe covered most of his face. Only his sharp jaw and a cold look on his mouth could be seen. This person was Tang Hao.
Qian Renxue looked at the massive Clear Sky Hammer. It was covered in that icy Killing Intent. Her eyes got small and she felt very shocked. She said in disbelief that it was the Clear Sky Hammer and asked if he was from the Clear Sky Sect.
She wondered how a powerful person from the Clear Sky Sect could appear here. That sect had been hiding for many years. She worried if her identity was found out and if the man was there for her. She quickly thought about the records in Spirit Hall.
She remembered the stories of strong people from the Clear Sky Sect. She thought of the one who once shocked the whole continent. As her thoughts moved fast, she became very alert.
Suddenly, two bright streaks of light flew through the night sky. They moved as fast as teleporting. One was orange and one was red. They carried the heavy pressure of a Titled Douluo. They crashed to the ground like falling rocks and landed behind Qian Renxue.
They stood in a way to protect her. Their faces were very serious as they looked at the big man with the giant hammer. On the left was a man who was tall and thin like a pole.
He had a mean face and held a golden snake spear. The tip of the spear had a green light like poison. This was Porcupinefish Douluo. On the right was an ugly man with red hair and red ears. He was very wide and looked like a big ball of meat. He had a purple aura around him. This was Snake Lance Douluo.
The arrival of these two Spirit Hall Elders should have made Qian Renxue feel better. But right now, it made things worse. Tang Hao's eyes were hidden in the shadows. They turned blood red as he looked at Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo.
The energy around him became angry and violent. He looked straight at Tang Chen. His voice was full of anger and disappointment. He roared at him and called him a rebellious son.
He asked what Tang Chen had to say now. He told Tang Chen that he could not lie about working with Spirit Hall anymore. Tang Hao said that in the whole continent, only Spirit Hall had the power to send Titled Douluo to protect someone. He told Tang Chen that he deserved to die.
When Tang Chen heard these words, his face changed from serious to annoyed. He even put away his Blue Silver spear. He shrugged his shoulders and said that Tang Hao had a very big imagination. He asked what Spirit Hall he was talking about.
As he spoke, he looked at Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo. They also looked unhappy. Tang Chen pointed at them and asked his father to ask them if they knew him.
He said that before today, he did not even know what they looked like. He looked at the two Titled Douluo with a funny tone. He called them seniors and asked if they were bodyguards hired by Spirit Hall to help him or if he had paid them to be there.
Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo felt their faces turn green and white. They were annoyed by how Tang Chen was acting. They were told to protect Qian Renxue and did not care about Tang Chen. In this talk, any answer would just make things harder to explain. This was especially true because Tang Hao was so angry.
The two of them just made a cold sound and kept watching Tang Hao. They did not move from their protective spot. This action made Tang Hao even more sure that Tang Chen had worked with Spirit Hall. He thought Tang Chen helped them steal the Spirit Bone of Ah Yin.
He shook with anger and roared again. He called him a rebellious son and asked why the Titled Douluo would be there to protect him so well if they were not working together.
Tang Hao then yelled that even if they had nothing to do with him, he wanted to know why Tang Chen hit his younger brother so hard in the arena. He said that Tang San was his own brother and asked how he could be so mean.
Tang Chen stopped looking helpless and started to sneer. He said that Tang San wanted to kill him. He asked if he should just stand there and let it happen. He told Tang Hao that his logic was silly.
Tang Hao roared that it was nonsense. He said Tang San never tried to kill him. He claimed Tang Chen was just jealous of his brother's talent and the attention he got. He said that was why Tang Chen was so violent.
Tang Chen laughed very loudly. It sounded like he heard a big joke. His laugh was full of sadness. He told Tang Hao to stop acting like he cared about Tang San. His voice got louder as he let out years of anger.
He asked Tang Hao if he would even look at Tang San if he only had Blue Silver Grass like him. He asked if the Clear Sky Douluo, who was the youngest Titled Douluo, would come running to help a weak son.
He reminded him of Saint Spirit Village. Before their Spirits awakened, Tang Hao never cared for them. From age four, the boys had to get water, chop wood, and cook. They had to take care of their father while he was drunk.
Tang Chen asked how a man like that could call himself a father. He said that after they awakened their Spirits, Tang Hao suddenly loved Tang San. He acted like a good father for the first time. But for Tang Chen, his father became colder and meaner.
He said it was only because Tang San had twin spirits. Tang San was more useful for Tang Hao's goal of revenge. This news was like a loud thunder in the minds of Qian Renxue and the two Elders. They were all shocked. They looked at each other with wide eyes.
They realized this man was the famous Tang Hao. They also learned that Tang San from Shrek Academy was his son and had twin spirits. They found out Tang Chen was his son too.
Qian Renxue felt a cold Killing Intent toward Tang Chen for a moment, but she calmed down. This secret was big enough to shake the world. It was like a giant wave hitting her. She stood there feeling shocked. Tang Hao was very angry because of what Tang Chen said.
He was breathing hard and his eyes were red. He yelled at Tang Chen to shut up. He called him a beast and said he had no son like him. He said he would clean up the clan today. Tang Chen laughed coldly. He said he had no father like him either.
He called Tang Hao a coward who stayed in the past and blamed his kids for his own failures. He said Tang Hao was not good enough for their mother.
Tang Hao lost his mind when he heard that. His anger took over. The Clear Sky Hammer grew very fast until it was as big as a mountain. It had the power to break the world. He swung it down with all his might. Qian Renxue saw this and looked at her two protectors. She signaled them to help. They did not wait. They moved forward to block the attack.
Snake Lance Douluo used his spear and Porcupinefish Douluo used his poison. But Tang Hao was too strong while he was angry. He roared for them to get out of the way. He did not even use a Spirit Ability. He just swung the giant hammer.
With two loud sounds, the two Titled Douluo were hit. They spit out blood and flew backward. They crashed into a mountain wall. They were not really trying to die for Tang Chen, so they used the hit as a chance to stop fighting. Now there was no one in the way. Tang Hao looked at Tang Chen with red eyes. He swung the hammer again.
It was coming down on Tang Chen's head like thunder. But at that very moment, the dark sky behind Tang Chen changed. Purple lightning started to flash in the clouds. A very old and loud dragon roar came out.
A giant black dragon appeared in the clouds. Two huge golden eyes opened up like the sun. Everything stopped moving and the whole world started to shake under that gaze.
