Chapter 180: Lu Chen Battles Tang Hao
"Lu Chen, give Ah Yin back to me!"
Above the Longevity Sect, a sudden, explosive shout rang out like a clap of thunder, the rumbling sound causing ears to sting with pain.
"Who goes there?! How dare you run wild at the Longevity Sect? Do you not know that I am the Grand Elder of the Longevity Sect!"
A long whistle echoed from within the Longevity Sect; it was Dugu Bo’s voice. As his words fell, Dugu Bo, clad in black robes, took to the air, ascending a hundred meters into the sky in the blink of an eye.
Dugu Bo stood in the sky, his robes fluttering in the wind and his hair dancing wildly. His eyes were like lightning as he glared at the burly man opposite him—a man with ragged clothes, messy hair, and a sallow complexion.
The terrifying pressure of a Level 96 Super Douluo erupted from Dugu Bo’s body, sending ripples through the sky as it pressed toward the burly man.
He intended to seize the initiative through sheer presence!
Sensing this pressure, the burly man—Tang Hao—couldn’t help but show a hint of solemnity in his bloodshot eyes.
Tang Hao hadn’t expected that a Level 96 Super Douluo would stand in his way before the primary target, Lu Chen, had even appeared.
Facing a Level 96 Titled Douluo, even Tang Hao in his Peak state would have to use all his trump cards to take down the current Dugu Bo.
Not to mention that Tang Hao was currently suffering from layered injuries and complex internal traumas; he could at most exert seventy percent of his Peak combat power.
Dugu Bo alone was enough to give him a headache!
However, it was impossible for Tang Hao to retreat. He secretly activated his Slaughter God Domain, continuously strengthening his Aura until he seemed like a world-destroying God of Slaughter descending upon the earth.
A faint white light emanated from around him, condensing into thousands of sharp blades that shredded Dugu Bo’s terrifying pressure. It even caused Dugu Bo’s exposed skin to feel a faint chill.
"Tell Lu Chen to get out here!"
"If he doesn’t return Ah Yin to me today, I will turn your Sect upside down, slaughtering every living soul until rivers of blood flow!"
Tang Hao’s roar was like a great bell; he did not fall behind in terms of momentum and even managed to suppress Dugu Bo slightly.
Feeling the chill on his skin, Dugu Bo was secretly shocked. He had originally thought that after his Breakthrough to Level 96 spirit power, he would have few rivals on the entire continent.
He had wanted to come out and show off, but who could have known the enemy would be so formidable? Under the impact of the Slaughter God Domain, even Dugu Bo felt a trace of fear in his heart.
This was one of the effects of the Slaughter God Domain!
It strengthened one’s Aura and granted the courage to fear nothing. Simultaneously, if an opponent’s mind was not steadfast during battle, they would fall into endless terror, and their strength would be greatly diminished.
Dugu Bo felt fear, already influenced by the Slaughter God Domain, but he refused to be intimidated. He did not retreat a single step. Clenching his fists with muscles tensed, he was ready for battle at any moment. He glared coldly at Tang Hao:
"What boastful words! I’d like to see just how you plan to slaughter my Sect until not even a dog or chicken is left, and rivers of blood flow..."
Before he could finish, a clear voice rang out:
"Brother Dugu, wait!"
"The one he’s looking for is me. He is Tang Hao, an enemy I loathe to the core!"
"Let me face him. I’ve wanted to have a proper fight with him for a long time!"
Along with this voice, Lu Chen, dressed in luxurious blue robes with long hair flowing and an incomparably handsome face, rose into the air from the Longevity Sect and arrived at Dugu Bo’s side in an instant.
Seeing Tang Hao actively seek him out, Lu Chen was excited. Scenes from the past flashed before his eyes—the humiliation Tang Hao had brought upon his parents and himself. Today, he could finally settle the old score.
His hands were trembling slightly, not from fear, but from excitement. The thought of using these hands to ruthlessly pummel Tang Hao made him feel an uncontrollable thrill.
When Lu Chen appeared, Tang Hao’s expression shifted into a daze as he saw the deep blue hair and that handsome face.
That’s right!
This hair color and these features were completely different from the Lu Chen of the past; instead, they bore a striking resemblance to Ah Yin.
He must have been the one who took Ah Yin and stole her Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline, which is why such a world-shaking change occurred.
Tang Hao’s eyes widened in fury. He raised his right hand, and a burst of black light erupted from his palm. Within a few breaths, the black light condensed into a Clear Sky Hammer engraved with blood-colored bat patterns.
Beneath Tang Hao’s feet, spirit rings rose one after another: yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, and red. The nine spirit rings complemented each other, rhythmically moving around his body. The final red spirit ring, in particular, radiated a suffocatingly terrifying pressure.
Veins popped on Tang Hao’s forehead as he glared at Lu Chen and roared:
"Lu Chen, I should have slaughtered you back then. I never expected that a moment’s oversight would give you the chance to grow!"
"Give Ah Yin back to me, and I might leave your corpse intact today. Otherwise, I will hack you into ten thousand pieces, and your Sect will run red with blood!"
After Tang Hao summoned his Spirit, Dugu Bo observed him with considerable surprise:
"So this is the Clear Sky Douluo? Without his Spirit summoned, he looks no different from a beggar on the street."
"However, this spirit power pressure is indeed terrifying. Even though his spirit power is clearly one level lower than mine, I feel like he can suppress me. Is it because of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring?"
"Lu Chen, you said years ago that you had an enemy. It turns out that enemy was Tang Hao. Since this is a personal grudge, I won’t interfere much."
"I trust that with your strength, taking care of Tang Hao will certainly be no problem!"
As he spoke, Dugu Bo actually retreated a hundred meters away.
He wasn’t worried about Lu Chen at all!
Tang Hao’s spirit ring configuration was indeed terrifying: two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red. This was the optimal spirit ring configuration achievable under normal circumstances.
But Lu Chen? The spirit ring configuration of his first Spirit was three purple, four black, and two red.
The configuration of his Second Martial Soul was two black and one red.
With a total of three Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Rings, dealing with Tang Hao would certainly be more than enough.
Without looking back, Lu Chen said to Dugu Bo:
"Alright, Brother Dugu. Just protect the Sect and don’t let the aftershocks of our battle cause serious damage to it."
As his voice fell, Lu Chen also raised his right hand. A black light gushed from his palm, twisting and changing until it condensed into a Black Scythe two meters in size.
Beneath Lu Chen’s feet, three spirit rings rose: black, black, and red. Although there were only three, the spirit power pressure they emitted was not at all inferior to the nine spirit rings on Tang Hao’s body.
Lu Chen’s expression was cold, his eyes sharp like a hawk’s. He spoke loudly and with murderous intent:
"Tang Hao, I’m surprised you still remember me. But it’s just as well; I also remember the humiliation you brought upon our family of three. From the moment my parents collapsed to the ground, the hatred in my heart made me want to hack you into pieces and scatter your ashes!"
"I’m not afraid to tell you: that Blue Silver Emperor you hid in the cave was indeed taken by me!"
"Now, if you want her back, come and take her yourself if you have the ability!"
"You don’t want to let me go, and I don’t want to let you go either. Today, I’ll see who gets to live until the end!"
Hearing this and confirming that Ah Yin was indeed with Lu Chen, the Killing Intent surging in Tang Hao’s chest reached its Peak:
"You are looking for death!"
