Chapter 176 Have You Ever Used the Hao Tian Hammer Before? (Please Subscribe)_1
At that moment, just as Xu Sheng and others in the Pope Hall were about to discuss...
Suddenly a guard from the Martial Soul Hall rushed in, bowed, and said respectfully, "Report! Your Holiness the Pope! There is a disciple from the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect asking for an audience outside!"
Upon hearing this, a hint of confusion appeared on Bi Bidong's face as she sat on the Pope's Chair, which was then replaced by the recollection of the three-day deadline Xu Sheng had given to the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect...
After glancing at Xu Sheng, she said indifferently, "Let him in."
Xu Sheng stared at the bowing guard, also curious if Ning Fengzhi had indeed agreed for the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect to pledge allegiance to the Martial Soul Hall?
Otherwise, there was no need to send someone specially to the Martial Soul Hall to report...
The other Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls silently watched, not uttering a single word...
They had just been rebuked loudly by Her Holiness the Pope, and were feeling extremely aggrieved; how could they possibly invite further trouble on their own initiative...
The guard quickly stood up and respectfully said, "Yes!"
Then, he rapidly ran out...
After just a few seconds, a disciple dressed in the attire of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect walked in, trembling...
In that instant, he felt as if countless sharp rays were focused on him, as if he was being roasted over a fire, with his heart pounding tremendously!
Then, as his gaze met Bi Bidong and her Beautiful Eyes, he quickly bowed even more deeply and hastily said, "Your Holiness the Pope!"
Bi Bidong responded with an icy "Hmm"...
The disciple of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect swallowed hard, bowed his head, and voiced as loudly as possible: "I... I am a disciple of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, here to convey a message on behalf of our Sect Master to Your Holiness the Pope."
"Our Seven Treasures Glaze Sect is willing to pledge allegiance to the Martial Soul Hall!"
Xu Sheng and Bi Bidong's eyes flashed with a look of 'as expected'...
Meanwhile, the faces of the other Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls showed delight...
Attacking the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect would mean facing the troublesome Chen Xin and Gu Rong, both Hyper Douluo...
Moreover, as both were renowned figures among the Title Douluo, it was much simpler for them to choose to submit to the Martial Soul Hall...
However, the disciple from the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect wasn't finished speaking and added with an ugly expression, "But... But our Sect Master also said that, even if the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect pledges allegiance to the Martial Soul Hall, the Sect's internal affairs must still be managed by him personally! The Martial Soul Hall must not interfere!"
Bi Bidong's gaze turned slightly colder in an instant...
Did the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect truly think the Martial Soul Hall couldn't do without them?
If their internal affairs were still to be managed by them, then what was the significance of pledging allegiance to the Martial Soul Hall?
Subsequently, Bi Bidong slowly stood up, her body erupting with a terrifying presence, she looked down at the trembling disciple of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect and said coldly, "Since the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect is so insincere, you may return."
This overwhelming presence within Pope Hall imposed a tremendous pressure on the Elders below...
Xu Sheng, who had been silent till now, seeing Bi Bidong's reaction, spoke up, "Teacher, the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect has agreed to submit to the Martial Soul Hall, I think it's harmless to let Ning Feng Zhi continue to handle the Sect's internal affairs. We just need to station people from the Martial Soul Hall in their midst!"
"Moreover, once the next step of the plan is completed, the so-called Seven Treasures Glaze Sect will be nothing more than a puppet of the Martial Soul Hall."
He inwardly thought, "As expected, Ning Feng Zhi is not so easily swayed..."
He intended to pledge allegiance to the Martial Soul Hall to preserve the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, yet he did not wish to relinquish substantial power to the Martial Soul Hall...
As Xu Sheng's words fell, Bi Bidong's Beautiful Eyes slightly tightened, as if trying to read his intentions from Xu Sheng's face...
After a long while, she said indifferently, "Xu Sheng, is that really what you think?"
Was this disciple of hers, really still thinking that way?
Or, did he have the intention to protect the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect?
Xu Sheng replied calmly, "Disciple was merely making a suggestion. How to proceed specifically shall still be decided by the teacher..."
...
On the other hand...
Tang San, having temporarily recovered from despair, looked exceptionally gaunt...
The elders of Hao Tian Sect around them shook their heads upon seeing this…
"Tang San, as long as you have the Hao Tian Hammer Martial Soul and the other clansmen strive in cultivation, our Hao Tian Sect will definitely be rejuvenated with life!"
"That's right, if our Hao Tian Sect could endure and recuperate for decades, we can also wait another few decades for your new generation to reach the Titled Douluo!"
By now, they had realized that Tang Hao's son, Tang San's talent, was far beyond any direct descendant within the Hao Tian Clan!
Therefore, their attitude towards him had softened a lot…
Upon hearing this, Tang San turned and returned a stiff smile, "Sorry, elders, I would like to have some time alone."
With those words, he employed the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and dashed forward…
…
Not knowing how long he had run, an exhausted Tang San lay on the ground, just as he was about to close his eyes…
Suddenly, a strong spiritual power firmly locked onto him!
Alert, Tang San instantly woke up, swiftly taking out Yama's Invitation from the Twenty-Four Bridges in the Moonlight and scanning his surroundings…
"Who?"
This terrifying spiritual power that brought a sudden surge of pressure assured Tang San that it was definitely from a Titled Douluo level powerhouse!
"I remember your name… Tang Yin, right?" A voice devoid of any emotion arose in front of Tang San…
Tang San narrowed his eyes, aiming the Yama's Invitation in front of him…
Once he confirmed it was an enemy, he would strike without any hesitation!
Then, a familiar figure slowly walked out from ahead…
When Tang San saw the person who emerged, his eyes widened, "You are… the King of Slaughter!"
That's right, the person was none other than Tang Chen, who had just dealt with all the Fallen Ones, and had closed off Slaughter City!
The next moment, Tang San decisively threw the Yama's Invitation in his hand…
The Yama's Invitation shot out in an arc, making it impossible for one to discern its trajectory!
Tang Chen's eyes followed the incoming Yama's Invitation, instantly sensing the intense poison it carried…
He feared that if it touched him, he would be doomed to the Yellow Springs!
Tang Chen's lips curled up slightly, "Interesting…"
Just as Yama's Invitation neared and lunged towards his head…
Tang Chen calmly tilted his head slightly, and the rapidly firing Yama's Invitation narrowly and dangerously passed between his strands of hair…
Tang San was shocked and exclaimed, "What!! He dodged it so easily!"
He had used the top three hidden weapon techniques of the Tang Sect for the Yama's Invitation, which were meant to make its trajectory unpredictable…
Yet it was still easily evaded by the King of Slaughter!
How could he not be shocked!
Tang Chen caught Tang San's look of astonishment and with a smile said, "Tang Yin, you don't have to worry; I won't lay a hand on you…"
Tang San tightly clenched the two remaining Yama's Invitations in his hand, cautiously asking, "King of Slaughter, what exactly do you want with me?"
Tang Chen's tone was indifferent, "Tang Yin, back in Slaughter City, you used… the Hao Tian Hammer, didn't you?"
With those words, a large blood-colored Hao Tian Hammer slowly appeared in his right hand…
Below his feet, nine soul rings slowly rose up…
Actually, he hadn't come for Tang San; it was just a coincidence!
