If she knew that it was this man who, in order to make his son rise to power, had left her in a dark cave with no glimpse of daylight... Qin Xiao felt he might not be able to stop her, Ah Yin would certainly kill Tang Hao.
"Ah Yin, I'm hungry, go get me something to eat."
Qin Xiao felt he couldn't let Ah Yin stay here any longer.
"What would you like to eat, Master?"
"Of course, what you're best at."
"Understood."
Ah Yin smiled sweetly, then pecked Qin Xiao gently on the face and ran off like a startled rabbit.
"Crack!"
Having witnessed such a scene, Tang Hao felt his heart shatter into eight pieces.
And it was still bleeding profusely.
He suddenly understood why Qin Xiao had spared his life; wasn't it just to torture him with Ah Yin?
"Qin Xiao, you've done so many evil deeds, are you not afraid of being struck by lightning?"
Tang Hao roared angrily.
But, the next moment, he was stunned. Eh, how could I speak?
On the other hand, after hearing Tang Hao's words, a sneer appeared on Qin Xiao's lips, "Struck by lightning? Do you think lightning can kill me?"
The furious expression on Tang Hao's face instantly froze.
He remembered Qin Xiao's methods.
Yeah, how could lightning kill him?
It would only serve to increase Qin Xiao's power.
Truly, such a curse.
A deep sense of defeat welled up in Tang Hao's heart.
"What's going on? Can you tell me what exactly is happening here? Consider it a plea."
He was eager to know the whole story.
"Actually, telling you doesn't really matter. I was just strolling around and accidentally found a cave. Without meaning to, I went in, and there I stumbled upon Ah Yin, who hadn't yet transformed."
"Seeing her so lonely, I decided to take her with me."
Qin Xiao's reply was as casual as if he really had found something while out for a stroll.
But Tang Hao couldn't help spitting out blood after hearing it.
How the hell can you be so casual?
Can you just wander around and stumble upon such things?
Moreover, was Ah Yin just growing there by any chance? Wasn't she carefully hidden by me?
Truthfully, Tang Hao did not believe what Qin Xiao said.
"How come, do you know each other?" Qin Xiao asked with feigned puzzlement.
"'Do we know each other'... you can remove the 'do we'."
"Ah Yin was planted in that cave by me."
Tang Hao was so frustrated he almost spat out blood again.
Qin Xiao's words were more infuriating with each sentence he uttered.
"Oh, I see..."
Qin Xiao nodded slightly, "But Ah Yin really despises you now... you know, if I hadn't stopped her, she would have strangled you to death already."
Tang Hao: "..."
Not only was his heart in pain, but his liver felt like it was aching too.
Yet.
Qin Xiao's words were indeed the truth.
He looked at Qin Xiao with a resentful gaze, "It's all because of you, Qin Xiao. If it weren't for you taking Ah Yin away, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass would have awakened as the Bluesilver Emperor long ago. How could one of his Twin Martial Souls have been crippled!"
"What? You're saying that one of Tang San's Martial Souls has been crippled?" Qin Xiao's eyes lit up with interest.
Tang Hao's complexion changed drastically as he realized he had spoken more than he intended. He immediately closed his mouth tightly and said no more.
"Well, that really is a sad thing... Hahaha."
Seeing Tang Hao's deflated expression, Qin Xiao spoke of sadness while actually laughing out loud without any decency.
In contrast, Tang Hao's face turned green.
Suddenly.
He realized another issue, "Wait a minute, even if Ah Yin was taken by you, how could she have managed to transform with only so many years of cultivation? Could it also have something to do with you, the Blue Silver King?"
He remembered something else.
That was, when he discovered that Ah Yin was missing, he went to find the Blue Silver King, only to find out that the Blue Silver King was also dead. From then on, Tang San had no chance to awaken his Bluesilver Grass Martial Soul into the Bluesilver Emperor.
Previously, he thought it was a coincidence that the Blue Silver King was killed by a passing Soul Master. Now, he felt that the truth of the matter wasn't as simple as he had imagined...
"The Blue Silver King? You mean that old Blue Silver Grass that lived for over eighty thousand years?"
Qin Xiao smacked his forehead, suddenly saying, "I remember now, when I passed by with Ah Yin, he was fervently summoning us. Seeing Ah Yin, he knelt and called her the great Emperor. He was too enthusiastic, and seeing that he had hardly anything decent to entertain us with, he eventually chose to sacrifice to Ah Yin."
"And because of that, it wasn't long before Ah Yin successfully broke through to become a hundred-thousand-year soul beast and transformed again."
Pfft... Hearing Qin Xiao's words, Tang Hao could no longer hold back. His blood surged up, and he spat out a mouthful of old blood.
"It's you, it really is you!"
"Not only did you take away Ah Yin, but you also beat me to the Blue Silver King. That's too much, you really don't leave any sentiment for others."
Tang Hao pointed at Qin Xiao, trembling all over.
He felt like he was about to die of anger.
If it weren't for the fact that the Blue Silver King was also gone, could he have crippled Tang San's Bluesilver Grass Martial Soul?
After all, Tang San with his Twin Martial Souls of the highest grade, if he could continue to cultivate them, would definitely reach heights on Soul Land that no one else could touch.
Now, even though his prospects are still limitless, they can no longer compare to before.
"Haha, Tang Hao, that's where you're wrong. We are enemies after all, why should I leave any sentiment for you?"
"Eh, that's not right either, didn't I leave you some sentiment this time? I'm giving you an opportunity to rise to great heights, a brilliant future. You'd better live up to it."
Qin Xiao's words sent a shiver down Tang Hao's spine.
He was absolutely ten thousand percent sure that Qin Xiao, this dark-hearted guy, didn't have any good intentions at all. Keeping him alive was definitely to make him fall into an even worse trap.
But...
He damned well couldn't find any evidence.
"I, I would rather die than let you succeed!"
Tang Hao looked left and right and saw a stone table not far away; without a second word, he charged over.
Boom.
The stone table shattered into pieces, but there was nothing wrong with Tang Hao's head.
Qin Xiao laughed unscrupulously, "As expected of a Titled Douluo Level power, tempered by Soul Power for decades, your body is even stronger than some rocks, Tang Hao. I'd advise you to save it. Hanging, wall-banging, fasting and the like, you can't die from them."
Ah, this...
Meanwhile, Tang Hao was utterly baffled.
Suddenly he felt that the cultivation level and strong constitution he once took pride in had now become his burdens.
With these things, it was hard for him even to die.
"Your Highness, I'm here..."
"I heard from President Liu that you were looking for me, and I rushed over without a moment's delay."
Just then, Zhao Wuji ran over frantically from a distance, gasping for breath as he asked Qin Xiao.
"Yes."
Qin Xiao nodded, "I called you."
Then he pointed at Tang Hao, "I'll leave him to you for now. Just don't let him die, I still have great use for him."
"Understood."
Zhao Wuji replied without a second thought.
Qin Xiao's words were like an imperial edict to him. Since it was commanded, even if it cost him, Old Zhao, his life, he would do it.
However.
When Zhao Wuji saw Tang Hao clearly, he was instantly taken aback.
"Holy shit!"
"Are you Tang Hao?"
His eyes widened.
Liu Erlong didn't tell Zhao Wuji who Qin Xiao had brought back, and recognizing Tang Hao, Zhao Wuji was struck with surprise.
"Hehe, Zhao Wuji..."
Tang Hao let out a cold laugh, "You think you can control me?"
He was disdainful.
He had known Zhao Wuji for more than a day or two. Back then, he was nothing more than a small Soul Sage, that damned Unmoving Ming King, in his eyes, was just an insignificant ant.
Zhao Wuji also felt Tang Hao's disdainful gaze and clenched his fists secretly.
But because of Qin Xiao's words, he was angry but didn't dare to speak.
"Cough cough..." Seeing this, Qin Xiao coughed, "Old Zhao, remember my words, don't let him die."
After saying this, Qin Xiao turned and left.
Your Highness doesn't trust me? Zhao Wuji was taken aback, but then it suddenly dawned on him.
"Oh, I get it. Doesn't Your Highness just mean that as long as he doesn't die, I can do whatever I want with him?"
Then, a ferocious smile appeared on his face as he rolled up his sleeves and approached Tang Hao.
"You, don't come any closer..." Tang Hao stepped back in terror.
But why would Zhao Wuji care about him?
Zhao Wuji grabbed Tang Hao's collar and slapped him hard, saying while hitting, "I'll teach you to talk..."
