Chapter 217 Tang San: I Must Uphold Justice over Family Ties_2

Qin Xiao's figure reappeared before his eyes.

And he was wearing a smile.

"Succeeded?" Poseissi's eyes lit up, and she asked tentatively.

"Succeeded." Qin Xiao nodded and a smile also appeared on the corners of his mouth.

Seeing this, Poseissi felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her heart.

"Then can we proceed with the final ritual?"

"Bring Tang Hao here."

Hearing Qin Xiao's words, Poseissi nodded slightly.

The golden scepter in her hand suddenly burst into a flash of golden light.

Moments later, Sea Horse Douluo arrived with Tang Hao from a distance.

"Qin Xiao, Poseissi, you dog couple finally deign to see me, huh?"

Tang Hao had a ferocious expression on his face.

So many things had happened recently; they were driving him almost insane.

No.

Insanity would be preferable to this torment.

Tang Hao felt that if he were insane, he wouldn't have to suffer so much.

"Don't worry, you won't be seeing me for much longer," Qin Xiao said with a slight smile.

"What did you say?" Tang Hao's pupils suddenly contracted, and a chill rose in his heart. In fact, he had already thought of a possibility.

He just didn't want to accept it.

"I said I'm letting you go. Are you happy now?" Qin Xiao grinned, showing his white teeth.

However, to Tang Hao, this scene looked incredibly ferocious and terrifying.

"You've completed the Sea God's trial, and next you want me to be sacrificed, right?" Tang Hao asked in quick succession.

Qin Xiao didn't respond to Tang Hao's words but turned to look at Poseissi, "Start your guest elder succession first."

Poseissi nodded, "Okay."

"No, you get away! I don't want this!"

"No matter what Qin Xiao says, I won't let you succeed."

Tang Hao struggled frantically.

But Sea Horse Douluo's hand was like a pair of pincers, firmly fixing him by the shoulders, leaving him unable to move.

Seeing this, Qin Xiao couldn't help but touch his nose.

The scene at this moment looked exactly like the behavior of a bully taking advantage of others.

However.

No matter how much Tang Hao resisted, he couldn't prevent Poseissi from placing the golden scepter on his head.

Immediately after, golden streams of light visibly transferred from Poseissi to Tang Hao through the scepter.

And Tang Hao's aura was becoming stronger at a frightening speed.

Level 97, Level 98, Level 99...

In just a few breaths, Tang Hao experienced a height he had never reached before.

"So, this is what it feels like to reach the limit of a Title Douluo of Level 99!"

Tang Hao's strength increase was far from over.

With a bang, the overwhelming power surging within him directly sent Sea Horse Douluo flying away.

Although he had been crippled by Qin Xiao, a massive Sky God Hammer still appeared in his hands.

Under his feet, eight black and one red, nine Soul Rings emerged.

"Hahaha, I, Tang Hao, am back!"

"Qin Xiao, Poseissi, you smart people have been outsmarted. You didn't expect me to become this strong."

At this moment, Tang Hao felt full of power, as if there was nothing he couldn't destroy.

However.

His triumph didn't last three seconds.

Qin Xiao's words instantly changed his expression.

"But I've been waiting for the current you, otherwise how would you qualify for the sacrifice!"

Qin Xiao sneered coldly.

"No, this is impossible."

"My fate is mine to control, not heaven's..."

Tang Hao roared.

Only.

In the next moment, he suddenly discovered that he had lost control of his body.

Immediately after, Divine Power and Soul Power in his body boiled like water on a stove.

Then he couldn't control it anymore, as Divine Power and Soul Power gushed out simultaneously. He became like a human torch that had been ignited, a beam of golden light released from his body, shooting sky-high into the clouds.

Clang.

The golden scepter in Poseissi's hand fell to the ground, and a sense of weakness surged through her.

Qin Xiao, quick on his feet, placed his hands on her shoulders.

"How do you feel?"

"Very relaxed."

Seeing Qin Xiao's concerned look, Poseissi smiled, "I can't remember the last time I felt this relaxed. From today on, I will live for myself, doing what I please. And Sea God's Island will no longer be able to bind me..."

```

"Then congratulations to you," Qin Xiao could hear the lightness in Bossi's voice.

But regaining freedom was indeed something to be happy about.

Bossi continued, "Without the position of the Great Priest, from today on, I am merely a Title Douluo of the Ninety-Fifth Rank...."

Qin Xiao laughed, "Level 95 is already enough."

...

Elsewhere.

Not far from Sea God's Island.

Tang San's figure appeared out of thin air.

"Sea God's Island, the inheritance ground of the Sea God..."

He hesitated for a moment but still did not approach.

Because he sensed a dangerous aura.

"Is this a mechanism left by the Sea God, or has Qin Xiao already inherited the godhood and is on Sea God's Island?"

Tang San couldn't be sure.

Better to wait and see for now... After much deliberation, he still chose to follow his instinct.

But, at the next moment, a golden pillar of light suddenly arose from Sea God's Island, piercing the clouds.

"Wait, this aura seems familiar!"

"It's like... Tang Hao."

As Tang San thought, he knew he couldn't wait any longer.

With a thought, he turned into a streak of light, and within just two breaths, he had already reached the skies above Sea God's Island.

Looking down, he discovered the source of the golden pillar of light.

That was...

His pupils shrank suddenly, unable to help but shout, "Tang Hao, what are you doing?!"

His voice was massive, imbued with divine power, and instantly reached the defenses above Sea God's Island; within ten miles around the island, everyone could hear it clearly.

In fact, with Tang San's eyesight, how could he not discern Tang Hao's actions?

Yet, he could not understand why Tang Hao would do this, why he would sacrifice to his enemy, Qin Xiao?

Has he gone mad?

Had Tang Hao gone mad? Tang San kept screaming inwardly.

Tang Hao, what are you doing?

As soon as he spoke, his voice continuously echoed in the skies above Sea God's Island.

Countless gazes were now focused on Tang San.

"It's Xiaosan!"

Tang Hao's eyes could still move, and he saw Tang San floating in the air.

At this moment, he had a thousand words in his heart.

He desperately wanted to tell Tang San that this was not his father's intention; they had forced him.

Xiaosan, my dear son, come and stop them, save me.

However, to Tang Hao's despair, he couldn't utter a single sound.

He could only watch helplessly as Tang San's gaze shifted from confusion to shock, and then to ultimate rage.

"Tang Hao, you are unworthy of being a father."

Tang San's heart was ice cold; at this moment, all the ways Tang Hao had once treated him surged back to his mind.

How he had stripped him of his Martial Soul and turned him into a cripple, these memories were vivid. Now that Tang Hao was going to empower his enemy, how could he bear it?

In an instant, a killing intent surged in his heart.

"If that's so, then don't blame me for disregarding the father-son relationship of the past."

"No matter what, I cannot let you sacrifice to Qin Xiao and let him ascend to godhood!"

Tang San knew very well what he had to do.

The next moment, 10 Soul Rings appeared on his body.

"Xiaosan, has he become a god?" Tang Hao was overjoyed.

Does that mean he didn't have to die?

After all, couldn't a god save him?

However, at this moment, Tang San had lost all reason and was not thinking about saving Tang Hao, but killing him.

"Lightning Strike!"

Then, from his four Soul Rings, a dazzling light erupted, and the Hao Tian Hammer in his hand fell like a shooting star.

Meanwhile, Tang Hao was stunned, "Xiaosan, Xiaosan actually wants to kill me?"

I am his father!

This son, he actually wants to kill his own father?

Tang Hao was astonished. The son who had always been so obedient in front of him, Tang San, he could never have imagined him being so rebellious.

At the same time, an intense feeling of defeat blossomed in Tang Hao's heart.

"Hmph, the heritage of a god, and a thieving child dares to interfere!"

Suddenly, the Sea God Temple shone brightly, and circles of golden halos appeared in the sky above Sea God's Island, like ripples on a water surface, forming a golden shield that protected the island within.

Boom!

Theoretically speaking, Tang San had become a god with astonishing battle power, but even the Sky God Hammer's blow did not break through the shield's defense.

"It's blocked!"

Tang Hao had complicated feelings; he didn't know whether to feel happy or sad.

Qin Xiao's lips curled up in a mocking smile, "Tang San, you've come at a really bad time. Now, the Sea God of the Divine Realm is watching over this place; trying to kill me, kill Tang Hao, or disrupt the divine trial, it might be impossible with your current power."
