Titled Douluo Elders

Note: 2/3 of the triple release.

+++++++++++++++++++

Seventeen years ago, when Ao Tian had just awakened, he had discovered these slumbering ferocious beasts within the Star Dou Forest not long after. 

However, having once faced the beasts for countless years, he was already tired of them, which was why he had never bothered with these guys.

Moreover, in his perception, those dragons with the Dragon Clan aura were too weak in strength.

This time, accompanying Xiao Wu into the Star Dou Forest had piqued his interest, and he wanted to see what these dragons that had appeared after him were all about.

He retracted his consciousness and took a look around the hotel. Those who had been lurking around had increased to over a dozen.

Being able to casually take out over four hundred Gold Soul Coins, in the eyes of these people, Ao Tian was like a fat sheep.

Not long after, Xiao Wu emerged from her bath.

She was dressed in a soft pink pajama set, her cheeks flushed, and her skin emitting waves of warmth.

With the storage soul tool, she had directly stored her changed clothes inside it.

"I'm done," she said, laughing cheerfully, leaping onto the bed and landing with a thud.

Suddenly, she remembered Ao Tian next to her and stopped, asking, "Should I sleep on the couch tonight?"

She felt a bit uneasy about two unmarried people sharing a bed.

"Stop talking nonsense," Ao Tian said and gently pressed her on her sleep acupoint.

Xiao Wu's head tilted, and she immediately fell into a deep sleep.

Ao Tian laid her on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and then opened the room door, walking out.

There were some matters he needed to take care of outside.

He descended to the first floor, and the same waiter was still at the counter. Ao Tian didn't even look at him and walked straight out of the hotel.

The waiter saw Ao Tian leave and was about to say something, but before he could speak, Ao Tian had already left the hotel.

"He's digging his own grave... "

Outside, the fat sheep had unexpectedly come out.

Under the dim streetlights, the eyes of over a dozen people suddenly lit up, finding it hard to believe that the fat sheep would come out at this time.

Before, they couldn't quite figure out Ao Tian's identity and were worried that he might have other companions in this small town, which is why they hadn't taken action.

But later, they discovered that Ao Tian had actually rented a room with that little girl, indicating that there were only two kids on their own.

If the target was not inside the hotel, they would have acted long ago.

Ao Tian didn't even spare a glance at these people and headed straight towards the direction of the Spirit Hall.

In this small town, the Spirit Hall had also established a branch, and several of the Titled Douluos whose auras he had sensed earlier were in this branch.

Clearly, the Spirit Hall had also received news of the 100,000-Year transformed Spirit Beast, which was why they had sent Titled Douluos here.

Ao Tian needed to disperse these Titled Douluos because with him around, who else could kill Xiao Wu's mother? 

After walking for a few minutes, Ao Tian turned into a dark alley.

When those dozen or so people caught up, he was already standing there waiting for them.

"You guys are too slow," he said calmly.

Upon hearing Ao Tian's words and seeing his calm demeanor, these people suddenly felt something strange.

They extended their spiritual power, vigilantly probing their surroundings for any ambushes.

But after a moment of sensing, they found that there were no spirit masters hiding here.

How did this kid manage to detect them?

"Why be afraid of him?" a bearded big man walked out and stared at Ao Tian with big copper-bell eyes. "Kid, hand over all the Gold Soul Coins you have on you, and I promise to let you go."

"Big bro, didn't you just say that this kid looks good and has tender flesh, and you wanted to have some fun with him?" a straightforward younger member reminded.

"Bullshit, am I that perverted?" Hearing his own secret being exposed by his younger brother, the bearded big man immediately denied it. The leaders of the other two groups smirked and charged out simultaneously, wanting to get to Ao Tian first.

Only a fool would chatter endlessly like this. The two leaders both had the cultivation of Spirit Emperor rank, and as they charged out, they had already begun to fight, rapidly approaching Ao Tian.

Their subordinates also joined in the melee simultaneously.

"Damn, they got ahead of us!" The bearded man with the scruffy beard yelled and released his martial soul, charging forward.

Among the two leaders charging towards Ao Tian, one had slightly lower strength and was sent flying, crashing into the alley's wall.

The remaining leader, with a wicked grin, rushed up to Ao Tian and extended his ten fingers like eagle claws, aiming for Ao Tian's head.

The head of a little brat like him would be easily crushed, and he could escape with the body afterward. It couldn't be simpler.

Ao Tian watched quietly as these guys performed, apparently mistaking him for a fat sheep.

He had seen such situations many times when he traveled the continent with Bibi Dong. Most of the time, it was because they coveted Bibi Dong's beauty.

"It's over," Ao Tian murmured softly, but his words echoed in everyone's ears.

What? The leader who was about to crush Ao Tian's head was astonished. When he saw the icy smile on Ao Tian's face, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

Ao Tian raised his finger, and in front of him, where the guy was charging, he drew a "cross" in the air.

With a spurt of blood, the powerful Spirit Emperor was sliced into four pieces by an invisible blade in the shape of a "ten."

His dismembered limbs convulsed on the ground, spraying a jet of blood onto another leader, leaving him dumbfounded.

Ao Tian remained unblemished by blood and turned his gaze toward the second Spirit Emperor, smiling faintly as he raised his finger.

"No!" The man screamed, his scalp tingling with fear, his heart filled with extreme terror as he rapidly retreated.

Ao Tian mercilessly waved his finger, and the invisible spatial force cut the man into pieces.

The other ten or so people were all left dumbfounded.

"Run!" someone shouted loudly.

Ao Tian spun and leaped, his hands seemingly playing a beautiful melody.

When he left, all that remained in the alley was a pile of broken corpses.

Inside the Spirit Hall in the small town, three Titled Douluo Elders from the Spirit Hall, along with some Spirit Douluo and Spirit Saints, were gathered together to discuss their actions for the next day.

At that moment, Ao Tian's figure appeared in the great hall.

A group of powerful spirit masters had their expressions change, immediately rising to their feet with their martial souls released.

"Who are you?" someone shouted loudly.

Ao Tian looked at the two people seated at the forefront, the Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.

Both of them trembled, hastily standing up and respectfully saying, "Mr. Ao Tian, how come you're here?"

Ao Tian appeared in his youthful form at this moment, and the Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo recognized him at a glance.

Even if they had ten times the courage, they wouldn't dare to sit in front of Ao Tian.

"Retract your martial souls!" Chrysanthemum Douluo shouted loudly.

"Mr. Ao Tian, please take the main seat," Chrysanthemum Douluo beamed, almost bending his body to a ninety-degree angle.

Ao Tian walked up to the top seat and sat down. Immediately, a maid rushed up to pour tea.

As the scalding hot tea flowed into the cup, Ao Tian grabbed the maid's hand while looking at her with a smile.

"The tea is overflowing," he said, smiling.

"Ah—" The girl exclaimed in surprise when she realized she had been so busy looking at Ao Tian's appearance that she forgot she was pouring tea.

Her face turned as red as the sunset, and a look of panic appeared on her face.

"Please... please forgive me, sir," she stammered.

Someone whom even the elders had to fear, how great must his status be? How could she not feel terrified?

Ao Tian waved his hand and said, "It's alright, you may leave."

"Thank you, sir," the maid said gratefully and respectfully before retreating.

Ao Tian then turned his gaze to the three elders and said, "I'm here to give you a command."
