Chapter 221 Shifting the Blame Eastward? We'll Die Together!
At this moment, above the canyon, behind a hidden boulder.
There stood a middle-aged man wearing a gray robe and a wide hood that covered most of his face. He had a stubble beard and looked somewhat haggard and down on his luck.
He was peering intently through the cracks in the rocks, watching everything that was happening in the canyon below.
This person is none other than Tang Hao, the current Haotian Douluo of the Haotian Sect!
When he saw the Crimson King instantly and overwhelmingly injure the two Title Douluos, Ghost Leopard and Demon Bear, his brows furrowed involuntarily, his expression changed slightly, and then a deep look of confusion and bewilderment appeared on his face hidden in the shadow of his hood.
"What happened?"
"Xiao Chuan...didn't he already pledge allegiance to the Spirit Hall? Why would the Spirit Hall still try to kill him like this? They even mobilized four Title Douluos at once!"
The scene before him contradicted Tang Hao's previous assessment, leaving his mind in complete disarray, unable to understand the reason behind it.
Was my judgment wrong?
Or has something changed within the Spirit Hall?
Or perhaps this kid has some other secret that makes the Spirit Hall so determined to eliminate him at all costs? Various guesses flashed through Tang Hao's mind, but he couldn't find a reasonable explanation.
"Forget it! I don't want to think about it anymore!"
Tang Hao shook his head sharply, forcibly suppressing these chaotic thoughts. In his view, now was not the time to delve into this issue.
Immediately afterwards, his deep, still gaze quickly shifted to the rear of the group, to the special carriage that Salas was personally guarding and that was transporting Tang San.
"It's all in chaos down there right now, everyone's attention is drawn to Tianxing Academy, I need to hurry and rescue Xiao San!"
His gaze hardened again, Tang Hao muttered to himself.
In his view, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Hao no longer hesitated, and his figure under the gray robe quickly disappeared into the shadows.
...............
Meanwhile, at the top of the cliff on the other side.
The group of masked men in black from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family were also staring dumbfounded at the scene before them, their faces full of confusion.
They watched helplessly as the four renowned elders of the Spirit Hall...
In just a few short exchanges, he was utterly crushed by that red-haired giant and reduced to this state? The shock in his heart was beyond words!
"Vice...Vice Clan Leader, I never imagined that behind Tianxing Academy there was such a monstrously powerful Title Douluo?"
At this moment, a man in black spoke in a trembling voice, filled with lingering fear.
Upon hearing this, the others nodded in agreement, their hearts filled with relief.
Fortunately, the deputy clan leader remained calm and did not act rashly, otherwise, there would probably be more than just people from the Spirit Hall lying there now.
With their numbers, they wouldn't even be enough to fill a tooth gap in front of that red-haired giant.
Just then, a man in black approached the elder, who was called the deputy clan leader, and whispered, "Deputy...Deputy clan leader, what...what should we do next?"
Should we wait for another opportunity, or evacuate immediately?
"Don't rush..."
Upon hearing this, the black-clad elder, referred to as the deputy clan leader, stared intently at the Crimson King below, who resembled a fiery demon god. His eyes were filled with apprehension and deep calculation. After a moment of contemplation, he said:
"Given the Spirit Hall's modus operandi and the importance they've placed on this operation, I'm sure they sent more than just these four people. They definitely have a backup plan!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two sharp, piercing shrieks, as if capable of tearing apart the soul, rang out.
Like two golden lightning bolts piercing the sky, they suddenly rang out from the extremely high sky!
"call out--!"
"call out--!"
The purity of the soul power and the vastness of the pressure contained in this howl far surpassed that of the previous Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo. It even made the Crimson King below slightly raise his head, a look of solemnity flashing in his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, a deep, resonant voice and a clear, melodious voice rang out almost simultaneously, carrying an arrogant air of someone long accustomed to a superior position and looking down upon the world:
"I never imagined that besides us old guys, there would be such a powerful Title Douluo hiding on this Douluo Continent, someone even my brother and I didn't know about!"
"Let's have a go at you today!"
As soon as the words were spoken, two figures descended from the sky like two golden meteors, carrying an unparalleled power and light, and landed on the ground not far away!
The man on the left, holding a dragon-patterned staff, has a resolute face and a deep, imposing aura!
The person on the right also wields a dragon-patterned staff, with sharp eyes and a fierce aura!
It was the two enshrined figures of the Hall of Offerings, Thousand-Pound Douluo and Demon-Slaying Douluo!
They were brothers.
He ranks last among the seven great elders of the Spirit Empire.
They are listed as the sixth and seventh offerings.
However, this does not mean that they are the weakest. Individually, they may not be very strong, just ordinary level 96 titled Douluo. But if the two of them are together, even Qian Daoliu would not have an easy time defeating them.
In other words, if these two join forces...
His strength is at least equivalent to that of a level 98 Title Douluo!
Their arrival instantly added another layer of uncertainty to the already tilted battle situation.
"We two brothers will stop this burly, red-haired man!"
Qianjun Douluo's gaze swept over the heavily injured Demon Bear Douluo and the Ghost Leopard Douluo who had just struggled out of the cliff and was spitting blood. His voice was steady but carried an unquestionable authority.
"You, go and capture that blue-haired brat immediately!"
"However, the High Priest has decreed that he must be alive!"
After saying that, the two brothers, Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo, flashed at the same time, appearing in front of and behind the Crimson King like two golden lightning bolts!
Immediately afterwards, the heavy dragon-coiled staffs in their hands, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound that seemed to tear through space, moved in perfect unison, one up and one down, one left and one right, launching a fierce attack on the vital points of the Crimson King's body!
Both Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo are over 120 years old.
As the saying goes, when brothers are of one mind, their strength can break metal.
With two level 96 titled Douluo joining forces, and having cooperated for over a hundred years, their tacit understanding was so great that they didn't need any communication at all. Their two dragon-coiled staffs flew up and down, and without even using any soul skills, they forced the Crimson King to retreat step by step.
When these two brothers join forces, their power is far more than just one plus one equals two!
Their exquisite combined attack technique instantly put immense pressure on the Crimson King. After being entangled by the impenetrable shadows of the staffs, he was momentarily overwhelmed and unable to break free!
However, at the same time that Qianjun Jiangmo entangled the Red King.
"boom--!!!"
Not far away, in the direction where Tang San was being escorted, a deafening explosion suddenly came, accompanied by the mournful screams of the Spirit Hall's Holy Knights!
Clearly, something happened over there too!
Having just rolled off the ground and endured excruciating pain, Ghost Leopard Douluo's expression changed again upon seeing this. He suddenly spat out another mouthful of blood and urgently said to Demon Bear Douluo, who was also struggling to his feet:
"Quick! Let's attack together and take care of this kid first! Then go support Salas immediately!"
They knew that if Tang San was rescued, their mission would be considered a failure!
Although Demon Bear Douluo was seriously injured, the vitality of a Title Douluo is extremely tenacious. Upon hearing this, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and he nodded heavily.
The next second, the two of them mustered the remaining soul power in their bodies and their figures flashed again.
Like two wounded but still ferocious beasts, one on the left and one on the right, filled with madness and killing intent, they pounced on Tang Chuan, who was temporarily isolated!
Tang Chuan's expression changed slightly as he watched the two titled Douluo, Ghost Leopard and Demon Bear, rushing towards him like two blood-red hurricanes, filled with madness and killing intent.
Immediately afterward, his mind raced, and he instantly assessed the current situation.
With their current strength, if they successfully unleash their Martial Soul Fusion Technique, they might still have a fighting chance against a Soul Douluo-level expert.
However, even a titled Douluo who is already seriously injured would be powerless to turn the tide against two titled Douluos, given the terrifying difference in strength between them.
A direct confrontation would likely only lead to certain death!
At this critical moment of life and death, Tang Chuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and his eyes, like those of a hawk, turned sharply to the direction from which the explosion and screams were coming from not far away!
A thought of shifting the blame and muddying up the situation instantly formed in his mind!
"Fine! Tang Hao! You want to save Tang San, right?!" A cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth. Tang Chuan's face showed no fear, but rather a cold and resolute expression.
"If I'm not having a good time, none of you will be either! If we're going to die, we'll all die together!"
"I want to see if these two will just stand by and watch you rescue Tang San so they can kill me. If they attack you, then I'll be..."
He stopped talking without the slightest hesitation!
Above his right foot, a blue-gold light suddenly burst forth like a small sun!
That was the result of his Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone's flight skill being pushed to its limit!
The next second, Tang Chuan grabbed Xiao Ruier, who was also looking solemn, and the two of them, enveloped in blue-gold light, instantly transformed into a dazzling golden streak of light. Their speed soared to the extreme, and they ignored the ghost leopard and demonic bear that were pouncing on them. Instead, they changed direction and flew rapidly towards the location of Tang San and Tang Hao like an arrow tearing through space!
He was about to deflect the fatal attacks from the two Title Douluos behind him.
They led the conversation directly to Tang Hao and Tang San!
Since Tang Hao wants to take advantage of the chaos to save people, let's see if he can still succeed in doing so under the furious pursuit of the two Title Douluos!
In Tang Chuan's view, only by thoroughly stirring up this mess could he find a glimmer of hope in this desperate situation! This move was undeniably ruthless and decisive!
Upon seeing this, Ghost Leopard and Demon Bear Douluo froze, their figures suddenly halting as they watched the golden streak heading straight for Tang San. Their expressions turned extremely grim!
How could they not know Tang Chuan's intentions?
But the Grand Elder's order was to keep him alive, and Salas had clearly encountered a formidable enemy, most likely Tang Hao. But no one had ever said that Tang San's life was to be spared!
"Damn it, chase after them!"
With a low shout, the two men exchanged a glance and both saw the anger in each other's eyes.
