Chapter 233 Defeat_1

"I thought you were going to wait until we were both exhausted from fighting before you showed up."

Seeing Tang San appear, the Fierce Emperor, like Lyu Bu, did not hesitate to mock him.

Tang San frowned at these words, "What do you mean by that? My delay in taking action wasn't to watch you both fight and reap the benefits like a fisherman watching snipes quarrel. I was secretly guarding against Qin Xiao coming to assist you."

"I refrained from acting, just to deal with a greater crisis. If you have any objections to that, why don't we switch roles? I'll take on the people from Spirit City, and when Qin Xiao shows up, you help me stop him?"

It must be said, Tang San's words were very sharp, instantly placing himself on the moral high ground.

Even though everyone knew he didn't really think that way, they found no words to refute him.

"Hahaha, Fierce Emperor, that was out of line for you. Tang San is our ally, how could he possibly stand by and just watch the fun?"

At this moment, the Spirit Emperor took advantage of a lull in the attack to chuckle and smooth over the relations between the people.

He also knew that it was not yet time for everyone to reveal their cards.

Tang San wanted to use them, and conversely, they also wanted to use Tang San, didn't they?

"The battle has gone on for so long, and yet Qin Xiao still hasn't shown up. I think he might have been tied up by something and can't attend to this situation for the time being.

So my suggestion right now is, please join us in striking together, to crush the enemy before us first."

The Spirit Emperor once again extended an invitation to Tang San.

"Worthy of being the ruler of The Second Layer of the Abyss, you really have a grand perspective," Tang San complimented politely, "My appearance is indeed prompted by the same thought."

With that, he clenched his hand and a blood-colored giant hammer appeared in it.

It was his Divine Artifact, the Sky God Hammer.

"Just focus on dealing with Bi Bidong and the others, leave Qiandaoliu to me," he said.

After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for everyone to respond and charged toward Qiandaoliu with the Sky God Hammer in hand.

Qiandaoliu also showed no signs of fear, devoting all his effort to urging his Soul Power and Divine Power. The six-winged Seraph almost became tangible behind him, and a Divine Sword formed of Divine Power in his hands slashed down at Tang San in an instant.

Tang San's gaze suddenly became intense, and he scoffed disdainfully, "You think a mere grain of rice can compete with the brilliance of the moon?"

With that said, he smashed out with the Sky God Hammer in his hand.

This strike seemed ordinary, but it actually contained two powerful techniques from the Nine Absolutes of the Azure Sky: Break and Burst.

Boom!

The Brightness Divine Sword in the hands of the Seraph clashed against the Hao Tian Hammer, emitting a tremendous noise.

Even between the two of them, a web-like spatial crack formed, indicating how extraordinary what seemed to be an ordinary collision was.

"Crack, crack..."

However, just as the faces of the Martial Soul Hall crowd showed a glimmer of joy, their expressions froze in the next moment.

Before their eyes, fine cracks appeared on the golden Divine Sword held by the Seraph, which then spread at an astonishing speed, traveling up the Seraph's arm and throughout his body.

"Ah, this..."

"The situation looks bad for the Great Priest!"

"If even the Great Priest falls, it's really hard to imagine what will happen next."

"..."

Everyone's hearts were lifted.

However.

Reality is cruel.

For them, what they feared the most was indeed coming to pass.

With a bang, the Seraph holding the Brightness Divine Sword ultimately disintegrated, turning into myriad specks of golden light that dissipated in the sky.

"The Great Priest has fallen!"

"Great Priest!"

They all looked up at the sky frantically, at the frail figure who lost the protection of the Seraph.

"Hahaha, Qiandaoliu, did you ever imagine that the Hao Tian Clan you nearly annihilated back then would produce a God Rank powerhouse?

Did you ever consider that one day, you would be killed in the very Soul Master Holy Land that you helped create, by your own enemy?"

Tang San asked with a cold laugh.

At this moment, he seemed utterly frenzied.

"The only thing I regret is not eliminating you and your father at all costs."

Qiandaoliu's response was indifferent.

If he could have foreseen the future, known that the infant once in Tang Hao's arms would pose such a massive threat to Martial Soul Hall, plunging the entire Soul Land into a catastrophe, he would have, without a doubt, done everything to kill him.

At any cost.

"Hahaha, sadly, there is no medicine for regret in this world, not even becoming a god can reverse the future or change what has happened."

Tang San laughed heartily.

In the meantime, a series of screams suddenly came from the other side.

Qiandaoliu glanced over, his mouth twitching.

He saw the Fierce Emperor waving his enormous Square Sky Halberd, harshly severing one of the Majestic Lion Douluo's arms.

The particularly strong force made it impossible for the Majestic Lion Douluo to resist, and he heavily crashed to the ground.

"Haha, no rush, this is just the beginning," the Fierce Emperor said, grinning at Qiandaoliu after doing all this.

Just then, the Sickle Emperor succeeded as well, his hands cutting off the wings on the back of the Azure Phoenix Douluo.

But the Sickle Emperor was not satisfied with just that; his hands, like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, lightly swept toward the Azure Phoenix Douluo's neck.

Luckily, the Light Feather Douluo was not too far from the Azure Phoenix Douluo and, in a critical moment, used his body to knock the Sickle Emperor aside, allowing the Azure Phoenix Douluo to narrowly escape the fatal strike.

However, the condition of the Azure Phoenix Douluo was also dire, with severe injuries and on the brink of death, no longer able to continue the battle.
