Chapter 169: Why Don't You Try Attacking? (Seeking Subscriptions)_1

Tang Xiao saw Tang Hao walk in and furrowed his brow, "Second brother? Why are you here? Tang San, weren't you told to take good care of your dad?"

The injuries of his second brother were so severe that it was already a blessing from the heavens that he could hold on for a few more days. If he exerted himself now, I'm afraid...

Tang San silently shook his head, thinking to himself, "I've already tried my best to stop him, but he is his own father, after all."

He had prevented him many times before, but since his father was so determined to come here, there was nothing he could do but to help him.

Tang Hao spoke without expression, "Big brother, no need to say more. It was I who asked Xiaosan to help me over!"

Only then did the other elders snap to their senses. One of them asked in confusion, "Tang Hao, did you just say that you want us to evacuate?"

Tang Hao gave this elder a glance and nodded, "That's right."

An elder by his side said with a displeased expression, "Tang Hao, though you have been away from the Hao Tian Clan for many years, you should understand that the Hao Tian Clan fears no one!"

Over the years, the Hao Tian Clan had never feared anyone, and the so-called concealment was just a period for the Hao Tian Sect Clan Members to recuperate!

To abandon their Hao Tian Clan, where they had lived for most of their lives, just based on the news of the Martial Soul Hall was simply impossible!

Another elder spoke with a spirit of pride, "Indeed, our Hao Tian Clan has a total of seven Titled Douluo! There's no need to be so afraid of the Martial Soul Hall!"

Tang Hao said coldly, "Not fearing the Martial Soul Hall doesn't mean we're sending ourselves to death. Only by doing this can we preserve the last chance for the Hao Tian Clan to survive!"

An elder who had been observing Tang Hao's facial expressions in puzzlement spoke up, "Tang Hao, why do I feel like you actually believe our Hao Tian Clan can't withstand the Martial Soul Hall?"

Since coming in, Tang Hao's expression had never once seemed to believe that the Hao Tian Clan stood the slightest chance of victory...

In Tang Hao's mind surfaced an image of a man who could contend with him without falling at a disadvantage...

He shook his head and said, "This isn't what I think, it's what I'm certain of!"

Tang Xiao pursed his lips and looked down at Tang Hao, asking, "Second brother, do you know something?"

Tang Hao's pupils contracted slightly, "Within the Martial Soul Hall, apart from the Pope and that person from the Elder Hall, there was a direct-attack class Soul Master who was able to hold his ground against me years ago. I'm afraid he's now frighteningly strong!"

"If he and the Elders from the Martial Soul Hall attack the Hao Tian Clan together, then... the Hao Tian Clan will have no chance of victory at all!!"

At Tang Hao's side, Tang San's first thought was of Xu Sheng!

He analyzed in his heart, "Brother Sheng was capable of contending with my father years ago; I fear he has already surpassed him by now..."

All the elders of the Hao Tian Clan were shocked beyond words...

An elder pressed urgently, "What? Tang Hao, who exactly is this man you're talking about?"

Another elder shook his head in disbelief, "How could that be possible? Other than the Pope and that Elder of the Hall of Martial Souls, who else could contend with Tang Hao?"

Although they were opposed to Tang Hao, the reputation of his Title Douluo Hao Tian was well-known across the Continent!

His strength need not be mentioned; if it were his prime, he could take them down with a single strike!

And now, to hear "that man is probably terrifying" from Tang Hao's mouth was indicative of a serious issue!

Tang Hao spoke coldly, "His name is Xu Sheng, and he is also a direct disciple of Bi Bidong. His soul power rank is estimated to have reached level 95, and he is under twenty years old!!"

Everyone in the room drew a sharp breath...

"Hiss..."

They were beginning to question if they were hallucinating...

The Xu Sheng mentioned by Tang Hao was actually a Titled Douluo under the age of twenty!!

This might even reach the God Realm that not even Tang Chen, the sixteenth Sect Master of their Hao Tian Clan, had achieved!

Then came a period of silence...

Only Tang Xiao, the Sect Master of the Hao Tian Clan, with a bitter expression looked towards Tang Hao and said, "Second brother, are you truly saying there's not a single chance of victory for the Hao Tian Clan?"

Tang Hao shook his head, "If the elders do not wish for the Hao Tian Clan to disappear from this Continent, then organize the Clear Sky Sect Disciples to evacuate immediately!"

"As for those pursuing us, I will hold them off!"

...

By now, Xu Sheng and the other seven Elders and guest elders of the Martial Soul Hall had already led the Spirit Hall soul masters to within three thousand meters of the Hao Tian Clan!

Xu Sheng's gaze swept across the precipitous cliffs in front of him, where only a few sparse iron chains served as a passage...

Looking down, there was a terrifying abyss that dropped for ten thousand meters...

Xu Sheng's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Is this the road to the Hao Tian Clan? As expected, it's quite troublesome..."

An Elder was the first to ask, "Your Highness the Holy Son, what should we do?"

A guest elder stroked his chin, "If the Hao Tian Clan's people are lying in ambush ahead, that would be troublesome!"

The Snake Spear suggested, "Your Highness the Holy Son, I think perhaps we Elders should go first to scout ahead!"

The corners of Xu Sheng's mouth lifted, "No need!"

Although the path was challenging, it was only so at night...

No sooner had he spoken than Xu Sheng abruptly released the Netherworld Ghostvine, and nine crimson hundred-thousand-year soul rings slowly rose beneath his feet...

The entire space seemed to ripple with the terrifying Soul Power he emitted...

In an instant, the shocked voices of three Elders from the Hall of Martial Souls rang out...

"What??? Nine hundred-thousand-year soul rings!!!"

"My god, the Soul Ring Configuration of His Highness the Holy Son is so formidable!! No wonder he can defeat a Hyper Douluo in seconds!!"

"To witness His Highness the Holy Son unleash his soul rings in this lifetime! It's worth it!!"

If even these Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls were so shocked, not to mention the lower-ranked soul masters below!!

One after another, the soul masters subconsciously wanted to kneel down!!

Endless voices of admiration rose from the rear...

"The strength of His Highness the Holy Son is probably the greatest on the Continent!"

"Nine hundred-thousand-year soul rings... Just how powerful is His Highness the Holy Son??"

"Forget about the Hao Tian Clan, even if all the Titled Douluos on the Continent were to come together, they might not be able to defeat His Highness the Holy Son, right??"

...

Facing the clamorous noise that rose from behind,

The first crimson soul ring at his feet suddenly lit up...

"First Soul Skill! Ghost Net!"

Suddenly, the thick Netherworld Ghostvine rapidly coiled together before solidifying into a net that measured a hundred meters across...

With a single thought from Xu Sheng, the massive and thick giant net spread out, covering the cliffs and crags above...

He forcefully created a path for the Spirit Hall soul masters using external force!

One of the Elders asked curiously, "Your Highness the Holy Son, can this thing really withstand so many soul masters passing over it??"

It looked like an ordinary plant! No matter what, that doesn't change its fragile form...

The ones who knew better, Snake Spear and Citun, couldn't help but laugh, the former enticingly saying, "How about you try and attack it with all your might?"

The Elder hesitated for a moment, his gaze subconsciously shifting to Xu Sheng...

Xu Sheng said indifferently, "Then give it a try."

His own level 97 soul power, fortified by a hundred-thousand-year soul ring to construct the Ghost Net, was not something so easily destroyed!
