Douro Continent

Chapter 650 Bloodbath at Jialing Pass: A One-Man Battlefield

Under Hu Liena's orders, the Spirit Empire army within Jialing Pass sprang into action. Even though the generals harbored some resentment towards the Spirit Hall's Soul Masters, they understood that without concerted effort, the consequences of the Heaven Dou Empire's army breaching Jialing Pass would be unimaginable. Especially the various kingdoms and duchies originally belonging to the Heaven Dou Empire; they knew full well what they were about to face. Their act of betrayal by joining the Spirit Empire made them sworn enemies of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Hu Liena gripped the city wall, her gaze fixed on the opposite side, seemingly searching for something. A complex emotion flashed across her eyes, but it quickly turned into a resolute expression. She knew very well that at this moment, she could not afford the slightest hesitation.

The Heaven Dou Empire's army pressed forward until they were twenty miles from Jialing Pass before halting. This time, their formation had drastically changed. The light cavalry remained on the flanks, all with bows drawn and arrows ready, waiting silently. The central army, at the forefront, was now a legion primarily composed of heavy infantry. All sorts of siege equipment were deployed. The heavy cavalry was not in the very center; the center was occupied by regular infantry, with the heavy infantry flanking them. Behind them were the Heaven Dou Empire's Soul Master legion and the Tang Family Army. The heavy cavalry was at the very rear of the entire Heaven Dou Empire army. A chilling killing intent swept towards Jialing Pass.

Tang San, along with the Shrek Seven Devils, Grandmaster, Flander, Liu Erlong, Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, Ning Fengzhi (Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School), Poison Douluo, Titan (Hall Master of the Power Hall of the Tang Sect), and Niu Gao (Hall Master of the Imperial Hall), all stood at the forefront of the entire army, not with their own Soul Master Legion. The Soul Master Legion, however, was commanded by Emperor Xue Beng of the Heaven Dou Empire and Marshal Ge Long, the Commander-in-Chief of the entire army.

Tang San stood undoubtedly at the very center of the group. His Sea God Trident, though still dark black, had become his symbol. His arrival instantly boosted the morale of the Heaven Dou Empire's army; every soldier who saw him shone with fanatical fervor. It seemed that as long as Tang San was present, defeat was inevitable.

With the battle formation complete, under the watchful eyes of both armies, Tang San alone slowly stepped out of the formation, raising the Trident of the Sea God high above his head. A beam of brilliant golden light suddenly shot out from his forehead, flowing into the Heart of the Sea God. Instantly, every pattern on the Trident of the Sea God seemed to come alive, golden light flowing and soaring into the sky, as if becoming the center of the entire battlefield. A strong divine aura enveloped Tang San's body, turning it completely golden, and the intense energy fluctuations seemed to absorb everything around him.

"Heaven Dou will surely prevail!" Tang San shouted loudly. To the astonishment of the generals of the Spirit Empire on the Jialing Pass, Tang San's voice traveled for twenty miles, reaching the top of the Jialing Pass and spreading throughout the million-strong army of the Heaven Dou Empire.

"Heaven—fight—will—victory—, Blue—Hao—King—will—victory—."

Boom boom boom...

With each word shouted, the army of the Heavenly Dou Empire would take a step forward. The soldiers repeated the same shouts, and the army advanced again. It seemed that with each word shouted, their momentum would increase, and the terrifying sound waves formed an enormous pressure that seemed to be tangible, rushing straight towards Jialing Pass.

Not to mention the garrison at Jialing Pass, even the five Title Douluos accompanying Hu Liena were visibly shaken. The battle that day had left an indelible impression on them. Even though Bibi Dong was clearly stronger than him, she still suffered a great loss at his hands. The power of the Sea God Trident in shattering the wall had left an unforgettable impression on every member of the Spirit Empire.

Tang San suddenly moved, wielding the golden-glowing Trident of the Sea God, and charged towards Jialing Pass like a golden meteor. At the same time, the group of powerful figures from the Heaven Dou Empire who had been following him also sprang into action, closely following Tang San and rapidly advancing. In the blink of an eye, they had completely separated themselves from their own army.

With at least a Contra-level powerhouse sprinting at full speed, the twenty-mile distance passed in the blink of an eye. They were getting closer and closer to Jialing Pass.

"Holy Maiden, what do we do?" A wave of panic swept across the city walls of Jialing Pass as the Poseidon's Trident drew ever closer. These people already harbored an innate fear of Tang San.

Seeing that familiar figure again, Hu Liena bit her tongue, using the pain to pull herself out of that intense, peculiar emotion. She coldly glanced at the pillars of the Spirit Empire around her. In this situation, it was undoubtedly best for these Title Douluos to lead the strongest part of their Soul Master army to intercept Tang San and his group who were advancing. However, these Soul Masters had extremely low fighting spirit; sending them out of the city to meet the enemy was clearly not a good idea. Hu Liena was, after all, not Bibi Dong. She didn't have Bibi Dong's strength, nor her forceful methods and authority. These Title Douluos were former elders of the Spirit Hall; they weren't people she could completely command.

Therefore, Hu Liena had no choice but to settle for second best, and said in a deep voice, "Let's observe the situation and be ready to intercept them at any time. We must not let them climb onto the city wall."

"Yes—" Upon hearing Hu Liena's words, the high-level Soul Masters on the city wall visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

Hu Liena gazed at Tang San, who was almost upon the moat, and thought to herself, "Tang San, Tang San, what are you trying to do? Charging forward with only a few people, what is your purpose?" She knew Tang San quite well; with his intelligence, he clearly wouldn't act without a clear objective. Such a small group venturing so deep alone must have some significant purpose.

Hu Liena saw Tang San, and Tang San, with his Purple Demon Eyes' visual abilities, naturally saw her as well. Tang San, of course, didn't have the same complex thoughts as Hu Liena. For him, although he admired Hu Liena, the Spirit Empire was his absolute enemy. The hatred between them was far too deep; there was no possibility of reconciliation other than the destruction of the other.

When they were about a mile from Jialing Pass, within range of the enemy's giant crossbows, Tang San suddenly stopped. The golden light surrounding his body intensified, and at the same time, his Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul was released. Nine spirit rings, composed of black and red, were neatly arranged on his body. Just then, from behind him, five beams of light, representing amplification of strength, agility, spirit power, attack, and attributes respectively, shot out from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda in Ning Rongrong's hand, shining directly on Tang San.

With a touch of his left toe, a powerful shockwave erupted from Tang San's left foot. The ground within a 30-meter radius centered on his toe cracked simultaneously, demonstrating the terrifying power of Tang San's kick. He spun around his left foot in an instant, his right arm, gripping the Trident of the Sea God, fully extended, stretching his muscles and tendons to their limit. He resembled a fully drawn bow, radiating golden light, and the Trident of the Sea God was launched like a javelin.

The moment the true divine artifact, bathed in golden light, was released, Hu Liena's expression changed drastically on the city wall. The golden light flashed and disappeared in an instant, and with a deafening roar, it first struck the gate of Jialing Pass.

The last time the Sea God Trident was unleashed with the third move of the Golden Thirteen Halberds, "Never to Return," it lost its aim by the time it reached Jialing Pass because it struck Bibi Dong first. This time, however, although Tang San didn't use the "Never to Return" divine skill, the power of his physical body, combined with his terrifying level 93 soul power and the 108,000 jin weight of the Sea God Trident itself, made this attack far more powerful than any direct attack from a ninth-level soul skill of a Title Douluo below level 95. Especially in terms of sheer power, even Bibi Dong's strongest soul skill couldn't compare.

With a deafening roar, the gates of Jialing Pass, being no city wall, shattered into countless fragments in the terrifying explosion. One of the four gates was completely destroyed, and at least a hundred soldiers guarding behind it were also blown to pieces by the debris.

What's even more terrifying is yet to come. Tang San circled in the air, his hands radiating a strong light. Within that golden-white halo, a tremendous suction force was generated. The Sea God Trident, which had shattered the city gate, did not penetrate deeper. Instead, it was forcibly pulled up and flew in an arc as Tang San used the vortex-like energy in his hands to toss it around.

After mastering the Tang Sect's ultimate technique, Crane Control and Dragon Capture, this was the first time Tang San used it at full power. He swung the Sea God Trident into the air, and as Tang San's body spun rapidly, it rotated once around his body before flying towards Jialing Pass again.

"Quickly, all the crossbows guarding the city, fire in unison! Stop him!" Hu Liena shouted from the city wall. Although the walls of Jialing Pass were extremely sturdy and did not waver despite the breach of one gate, Hu Liena had already realized what Tang San was about to do. She immediately ordered the crossbows to fire and looked at the five Title Douluos beside her, "Elders, lead one hundred Imperial Soul Masters of Soul Saint rank or above to attack! You must stop him from continuing!"

The five titled Douluo looked at each other, but none of them dared to make a move. Having witnessed the power of the Sea God Trident once again, they were truly unwilling to fight Tang San again.

"You—" Hu Liena glared angrily. Although she had guessed that these elders would not completely obey her orders, the fact that this had actually happened still enraged her.

The Prickly Porcupine Douluo frowned and said, "Holy Maiden, let's focus on defending the city. We have the Angel Legion and the Holy Dragon Legion inside the city. Even if Tang San breaks through the city gates, we are not afraid of them rushing into the city. On the contrary, it will bring them even greater losses."

Huge crossbow bolts, whistling sharply, flew from the city walls, all heading towards Tang San. The howling sound was terrifying, but unfortunately, they were no match for Tang San.

Various colored lights continuously shone around Tang San, as his companions used their various soul skills to cover him. In front of these Soul Douluo-level or higher powerhouses, the giant crossbow was no threat at all; not a single bolt could get within fifty meters of Tang San's body, all of them being intercepted by various soul skills.

Boom— Just then, a second loud explosion rang out, and another city gate was breached. Tang San's movements didn't stop at all. By the time the fourth explosion echoed across the battlefield, all four massive city gates of Jialing Pass had been reduced to fragments.

When Tang San regained control of the Trident of the Sea God after four consecutive strikes, he couldn't help but pant slightly. However, the powerful recovery ability of the Mysterious Heaven Skill allowed him to quickly recover the soul power he had previously consumed while he was panting.

The drawbridges at Jialing Pass were not in front of the city gate, but on the side. Hu Liena's previous orders were carried out, and all four massive drawbridges were destroyed.

With Xue Beng's approval, Marshal Ge Long raised his longsword and gave the order to charge. The Central Army infantry didn't bother with the siege equipment; instead, they charged directly towards Jialing Pass. At least 200,000 troops were thrown into the first wave of the charge. Each of the leading infantrymen carried a wooden plank, one meter wide and one and a half meters long, on their backs—its purpose was unclear. The Soul Master Legion and the Tang Family Army followed suit, rapidly approaching Jialing Pass.

Seeing the suspension bridge destroyed, Tang San couldn't help but sneer. Of course, they hadn't been unaware of this situation and naturally had a way to deal with it.

"Sword Douluo, make your move."

Chen Xin let out a low shout, and the Seven Kill Sword flew out of his hand. The ninth black star on it shone brightly, and the Seven Kill Sword grew furiously in the wind, instantly transforming into a giant sword. It descended from the sky, not to attack the city, but to slash at the moat.

Boom— The first strike of the Seven Kill Sword descended, and the moat seemed to be cut in two. The terrifying sword energy almost severed the entire moat in an instant. Of course, the water flow did not actually stop, but it left a huge ditch ten meters wide at each end of the moat, which diagonally connected to the moat.

Before Chen Xin's movements were even finished, sword shadows flashed in mid-air, a total of thirteen sword strikes evenly slashing across the moat, leaving behind equally massive trenches, each trench sloping downwards like a ramp, extending into the water. The power of a level ninety-seven Title Douluo was fully displayed. The intimidating power of these terrifying thirteen sword strikes was in no way inferior to Tang San's previous four flying halberd strikes.

The five Title Douluos of the Spirit Empire atop the city wall gasped in shock. They were currently the strongest warriors on Jialing Pass, closest to the Sword Douluo in strength, and naturally felt the impact of his attack most acutely. They knew none of them could withstand such a blow. They were even more grateful they hadn't heeded Hu Liena's advice to go out and fight.

After unleashing those thirteen sword strikes, the Seven Kill Sword returned to its original form and fell back into Sword Douluo's hands. His face looked somewhat pale, and he was slightly panting as he held the Seven Kill Sword. Just as he sheathed the sword, Tang San threw out his Sea God Trident for the fifth time, but this time his actions surprised even his own side.

The trident wasn't being swung towards the opposite city; instead, it was flung into the air, blade upwards, handle downwards, and with a soft thud, it landed directly in the moat.

With a hint of mockery on his face, Tang San pressed his right index, middle, and ring fingers onto the trident mark of the Sea God on his forehead, instantly boosting his energy to its peak.

Even Tang San himself did not expect that today's battle would go so smoothly, without the obstacles he had imagined. The Spirit Empire's army seemed to be waiting silently, and did not send any spirit masters out of the city to meet the attack.

He swung his right arm out, and the three fingers that had been pressed against his forehead pointed towards the moat. A highly condensed and powerful golden light burst forth instantly, shooting directly into the moat water. The spot where the Poseidon's trident had entered the water was exactly where it had entered earlier.

The instant the golden light entered the water, a gigantic golden phantom emerged from behind Tang San. Its imposing aura intimidated all the Soul Masters, both those on the city walls and those nearby. A strange feeling arose in everyone's heart. In their eyes, although Tang San was still standing on the bank, he seemed to have merged with the moat—no, to be precise, the moat had merged with him.

The moat, which had been boiling over with countless splashes of water from Sword Douluo's thirteen sword strikes, suddenly and abruptly calmed down, becoming as still as a mirror. Strange ripples quietly spread outwards; these were not water ripples, but a layer of light waves, golden light waves.

The next moment, Hu Liena looked down from the city wall and was horrified to see that the moat in front of Jialing Pass had turned completely golden.

Tang San scoffed in a voice only his companions could hear, "Although I am not the Sea God, to think you can use water to stop our army is nothing but a pipe dream."

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his right hand, and a golden light burst out of the water. The trident of the sea god, which had previously been submerged in the moat, stood upright in mid-air, radiating its sacred golden color.

The light of the Sea God emanating from Tang San's forehead suddenly changed, transforming from a straight line into circular ripples that quietly spread outwards. The Heart of the Sea God beneath the blade of the Sea God Trident radiated an intense light that was impossible to look at directly. Tang San pointed his right hand forward, aiming directly at the top of Jialing Pass, while the blade of the Sea God Trident in mid-air simultaneously tilted towards Jialing Pass.

wow——

Under the stunned gaze of everyone, the golden water in the moat instantly boiled under the influence of the light patterns, rising into the air in a flash.

Back on Seagod Island, the Seven Holy Pillars of Seagod, who were guardians of the sea, used the power of the pillars to control the seawater. Tang San, however, now wields the true Trident of Seagod, and his own strength surpasses that of the guardians. Controlling this moat, though wide, is not actually that large, and is therefore not a difficult task for him, a candidate for Seagod.

The Sea God is the god who controls all water energy. The moat is still water, insignificant compared to the vast ocean. This is why Tang San looked mocking when he saw the Spirit Empire trying to use the moat as a barrier. Trying to use water to block a candidate for the Sea God—isn't that ridiculous?

All the water in the moat rose into the air, and even most of the water in the underwater silt was extracted. The trident of Poseidon suddenly pointed forward, and the water in the moat that had risen into the air instantly turned into a raging torrent that crashed straight towards the top of Jialing Pass.

Tang San was using the water control ability of the Trident of Poseidon and the skill "Raging Tides of the Vast Ocean" attached to the Heart of Poseidon. It was an area-of-effect attack skill. Although the current flow of water he controlled was relatively large, dispersing the skill's attack power, its offensive power was still undeniably considerable.

Almost instantly, all the water in the moat flooded into Jialing Pass. Although there were many high-level Soul Masters on the city walls, they were terrified by Tang San, and the golden river water looked so terrifying that everyone was only focused on defending themselves, with no thought of concentrating their strength to resist the impact of the river. It all happened so suddenly.

The towering waves swept a large number of ordinary soldiers off the walls of Jialing Pass and into the pass. The walls were nearly 100 meters high; falling from such a height, combined with the force of the water, resulted in heavy casualties among the soldiers. Furthermore, Tang San concentrated his efforts to control the water flow and impact the massive crossbows that posed a significant threat to the city walls. After the waves subsided, more than a third of the crossbows were destroyed.

When Hu Liena used her soul skill to withstand the impact of the water waves, her mind went completely blank. It was the first time she had faced such a massive scene, the first time she had commanded such a grand battle. Faced with Tang San's terrifying strength, the charge of a million-strong army, and the moat water that suddenly rose into the air and transformed into an attack, all of this had pushed her mental capacity to the brink of collapse.

With the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone unleashing its flight skill, Tang San soared into the air, gripping the Sea God's Trident in mid-air, pointing it straight at Jialing Pass, and roared, "Kill—"

The charging army of the Heavenly Dou Empire accelerated once more, and from the air, the army surged towards Jialing Pass with a force even more turbulent than the moat had been. At this moment, there wasn't even a single person operating the giant crossbows guarding the pass.

"Fight—the enemy—!" Hu Liena screamed, the only words she could utter at that moment. Compared to Tang San's murderous voice, hers sounded so weak.

Tang San didn't rush to Jialing Pass, as there were still many powerful warriors from the Spirit Empire there. He simply surveyed the chaotic situation within the pass from the air. An uncontrollable burning desire surged within him. The war of revenge had begun, and the Spirit Empire would finally pay the price for everything they had done.

Soon, the Heavenly Dou Empire's army surged forward. The wooden planks carried on the backs of the infantry at the forefront proved their worth. Planks were thrown one after another into the now-dry moat, and the soldiers poured into it through the thirteen gaps opened by Sword Douluo. From there, they climbed the ramps on the other side, launching a frenzied assault on Jialing Pass. With the godlike Blue Hao King hovering in the air, every soldier's eyes were filled with fanaticism. A red and white killing domain descended from the sky, covering a vast area. It had little effect on Soul Masters, but its influence on ordinary soldiers was immense.

The already panicked soldiers of the Spirit Empire became even more panicked in the God of Slaughter Domain. The morale of the already high-spirited Heaven Dou Empire army became even stronger. In the God of Slaughter Domain, they even forgot about life, death, and pain, and only endless killing existed.

The five Title Douluos behind Hu Liena had already released their Martial Souls, but none of them showed any intention of attacking Tang San, who was suspended in mid-air. They simply watched silently, their eyes filled with doubt and uncertainty.

"If you don't make a move soon, Jialing Pass will be finished. Even if it means death, we must stop Tang San. With him here, our defenses will collapse." Hu Liena was now almost hysterical, screaming frantically at the five Title Douluos.

The five Title Douluos exchanged bewildered glances, momentarily at a loss. They hadn't been able to defeat him when they outnumbered him, and back then, Bibi Dong was leading the way. Now, with only five of them, were they really going to risk their lives? Reaching the Title Douluo level was incredibly difficult; who would willingly risk their life?

"She's right, that's an order. Charge up there!" A hoarse voice rang out, and the five Title Douluos turned around with drastic changes in their expressions, just in time to see Bibi Dong, pale-faced, arrive on the city wall.

However, before these Title Douluos could carry out Bibi Dong's orders, their opponents had already descended upon the city walls. The group of powerful figures who had accompanied Tang San to the front lines all rushed towards the walls of Jialing Pass. Those with the ability to fly took to the skies, while those without used Oscar's flying mushroom sausages to reach the city walls; more than ten powerful figures charged forward simultaneously.

By this point, the titled Douluo realized that if they didn't act now, the outcome would likely be even worse. The five of them roared simultaneously, unleashing their soul skills and charging forward.

As the saying goes, enemies are especially hostile when they meet. One side only had five top-tier experts, but they were supported by a large number of Soul Masters at levels 70 and 80. The other side had more than ten people, almost all of whom were top-tier experts, and there was also Tang San, who could barely contend with a peak Douluo. The moment the two sides clashed, they sparked fierce flames.

Poison Douluo once again sought out his old rival, the Porcupine Douluo who had restrained him. He refused to believe that he couldn't defeat this guy.

Sword Douluo unleashed a circle with his Seven Kill Sword, instantly trapping two of his opponent's Title Douluos. Bone Douluo laughed and followed suit, taking on two more. Under Ning Fengzhi's full-force amplification, although they were each fighting two against one, they were not at a disadvantage. The opponent's five Title Douluos were completely blocked.

Ning Rongrong unleashed her full amplification power, enabling Dai Mubai, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, Flander, Liu Erlong, and others to hold off the other level 70 and 80 Soul Masters under her enhancement. The dazzling Soul Skills added a radiant glow to the Jialing Pass city walls.

Tang San and Grandmaster faced Bibi Dong and Hu Liena, who stood in front of her. Both were master and disciple. Tang San, holding the Sea God Trident, stood coldly diagonally in front of Grandmaster, glaring at Bibi Dong. Seeing Bibi Dong, he couldn't help but think of his parents, and of the deceased Da Ming and Er Ming.

Hu Liena stood in front of the pale-faced Bibi Dong without flinching, her gaze fixed on Tang San, her emotions a mixture of complex feelings and unwavering resolve.

Bibi Dong's face was pale, and her once piercing eyes were now somewhat dazed as she looked at the master. The weakness of her soul made her look rather fragile.

"Why?" The Grandmaster's eyes were veiled in red, his fists clenched, his gaze even more complex than Hu Liena's when she looked at Tang San, as he stared at Bibi Dong and asked. He had wanted to ask Bibi Dong these three questions for a very long time. But only now did he finally ask them face to face.

Bibi Dong laughed, a laugh that sent chills down your spine. "Of course it's for you. Have you forgotten how your family bullied you? They looked down on you, even ostracized you from the sect. You should thank me; I helped you kill all those who bullied you. Liu Erlong should also thank me; without the family barrier, you two can be together without any obstacles, right?"

"You're talking nonsense. No matter how the family treats me, it was the family that gave me life, and I will always be a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family." The master said angrily, his eyes blazing with fury.

Bibi Dong was still laughing, but her laughter grew increasingly cruel, tinged with a strange mockery. "So what? The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan has already vanished. What's the point of saying all this? How laughable, how laughable! Hahahahahaha."

"You're a madman!" the master roared.

Bibi Dong's face turned cold as she looked at Grandmaster. Her eyes suddenly became strange, even crazed. "Yes, I'm a madwoman. I'm insane. So what? I'll take revenge, take revenge on everyone in this world. I'll be the most evil person on Douluo Continent. Every life in this world is evil, every single one of them. Look at me however you want. I've already done it all. All the bad things were done by me, so what? I heard you're now the Grand Preceptor of the Heaven Dou Empire. Xiao Gang, don't be impatient. After I defeat the Heaven Dou Empire, I'll make you king, what's wrong with that? Come on! You really want to kill me? Then come and kill me!"

Hu Liena suddenly stepped in front of Bibi Dong, shielding her with her body. "Teacher, no! I will protect you! Tang San, if you want to kill my teacher, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"

Bibi Dong paused for a moment, then said, "Silly girl, you're really silly. Do you think I can't see that you've fallen for this boy?"

Upon hearing Bibi Dong's words, Tang San and Hu Liena both trembled. They exchanged a glance; Tang San frowned, while Hu Liena looked surprised and anxious. Grandmaster, on the other hand, was somewhat stunned.

"Teacher, I, I didn't..." Hu Liena said anxiously.

Bibi Dong laughed, this time a gentle laugh, the change in her emotions so drastic it was terrifying. "Silly girl, your teacher is an experienced person. I can see a lot from the way you look at him. Back then, I looked at a man with the same eyes, the only man I ever knew. How could I not know? Yes, Tang San is indeed very outstanding. I already consider myself a genius, but he is even more talented than me. You have good judgment. Unfortunately, you are my disciple. What's the difference between you and him, and between me and Xiao Gang? Even if you were willing, would they want you? We are both women no one wants."

"Teacher..." Two lines of clear tears flowed down Hu Liena's beautiful eyes. The emotions she had been forcibly suppressing could no longer be contained, but she still stood firmly in front of Bibi Dong.

Tang San took a deep breath, slowly raised the Trident of the Sea God in his hand, and faced Hu Liena. "Step aside, I don't want to fight you. You should know how many evils Bibi Dong has committed. She must die. With her dead, this world will be much more peaceful."

"No—no matter what, she's still my teacher." Hu Liena looked at Tang San sadly. From Tang San's eyes, she could tell that this man felt at most pity for her, but not a trace of love. Earlier, when he heard his teacher's words, he even turned back to look at Xiao Wu. That fleeting look in his eyes was the one she had always longed for but could never have. She understood that in Tang San's heart, there was only Xiao Wu.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with sorrow. "If you want to kill me, then kill me. I beg you, spare my teacher. I'm begging you, please?"

Tang San abruptly closed his eyes, then quickly opened them again. Hu Liena's sorrowful gaze actually stirred something within him. It should be known that Hu Liena's martial soul possessed a powerful natural charm, and now, with her genuine emotions revealed, it was even more captivating.

With a cold snort, Tang San forced himself to harden his heart, took a step forward with his right foot in an instant, and lightly slapped Hu Liena with his left hand, his palm instantly turning jade-colored.

Facing Tang San's attack, Hu Liena neither dodged nor evaded. Her beautiful eyes held a poignant sadness, and even a hint of relief. She puffed out her high chest and met the attack head-on.

It's a new episode, and it seems we're already in the latter half of the month. If you have any monthly tickets left, please vote for Xiao San. Thank you. Oh, our recommendation votes seem to be lagging behind a little bit again, just a little bit. Let's all work together to push it up, and we'll be number one again. Thank you so much.
