Chapter 226 Chen Hong's Mysterious Passive Mental Domain! [Thanks to Piaoyezi for the donation]

Tang Hao looked at Chen Hong, whose long hair was being tousled by the swirling leaves, with a complex expression. He felt that his current mood was almost exactly the same as that of Dugu Bo, the titled Douluo goalkeeper.

Just as Dugu Bo felt he could empathize with Tang Hao, unable to bear losing his only family member, Tang Hao also found himself seemingly able to empathize with Dugu Bo as well. However, then it wouldn't be about family anymore; it would be about Dugu Bo not daring to harm Tang San because Tang San had the Haotian Douluo protecting him. Similarly, Tang Hao didn't dare harm Chen Hong because Chen Hong had the level 99 peerless Douluo Qian Daoliu behind him!

"You always manage to surprise people," Tang Hao finally said.

Qian Daoliu did not launch any attack on Tang Hao at the time. Tang Hao spent a month in a slump, entirely recovering from the internal injuries he suffered from the explosion of his ring.

Tang Hao had never understood how he could have stumbled upon the Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu in Soto City. It wasn't until he recovered from his internal injuries and saw the Technology Chamber of Commerce's convoy leaving the city in the suburbs that he realized a terrifying problem.

Tang Hao first discovered that Tang San and others were in the caravan heading towards Tian Dou City. So, feeling uneasy, Tang Hao secretly followed the Technology Chamber of Commerce's caravan.

Then Tang Hao discovered that among the Technology Chamber of Commerce's convoy was a Soul Douluo from the Spirit Hall whom he didn't recognize. At that moment, Tang Hao suddenly realized that the new Soul Douluo from the Spirit Hall of Soto City was there to secretly protect Chen Hong!

The fact that the Spirit Hall discreetly dispatched Soul Douluos to protect Chen Hong means that the Spirit Hall attaches great importance to Chen Hong, but does not want to exclude the highly regarded Title Douluo, hence the act of dispatching Soul Douluos.

After all, even if a Title Douluo is all brawn and no brains, they generally wouldn't provoke the extremely complex background of the "Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School No. 2" Technology Chamber of Commerce. The purpose of sending a Soul Douluo was to clean up some ignorant and brainless henchmen for Chen Hong.

The Spirit Hall's Soul Douluo were there to protect Chen Hong, and Tang Hao later realized that Qian Daoliu didn't seem to have come for him, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to escape at all!

If Qian Daoliu's target wasn't him, then who could it be?

Chen Hong! Qian Daoliu's target is Chen Hong! Tang Hao was just lucky to run into Qian Daoliu, who was 'enhanced +1' and was itching for a fight! He was so scared that he unleashed a desperate ultimate move, but he couldn't even scratch the opponent's skin - 'HP -0'!

During that time, Tang Hao didn't dare to approach Soto City at all. Without even thinking, he knew that Chen Hong must have already made contact with Qian Daoliu!

Not long after Chen Hong came into contact with Qian Daoliu, he seemed to be making a big move (Tang Hao noticed that Chen Hong didn't like to move around). Tang Hao used the little bit of his remaining brain to figure it out and understood that Chen Hong must have gained Qian Daoliu's attention!

Therefore, when Tang Hao faces Chen Hong, he experiences the same sense of powerlessness that Dugu Bo felt when facing Tang San.

From the fact that Chen Hong could use that mysterious and terrifying aura-shielding divine rune without any scruples in front of him, Tang Hao could sense that Chen Hong had the same 'slight audacity' as Tang San had just shown.

"Heh, to receive praise from Senior Haotian, that's truly no easy feat." Chen Hong picked up a fallen leaf, looked up at Dugu Bo in the distance amidst the falling leaves, and chuckled softly.

Not long after Dugu Bo kidnapped Tang San, Tang Hao found Chen Hong, hoping to use an external brain to teach Dugu Bo, the gatekeeper of the Douluo Continent known as the shame of Douluo, a lesson. Tang Hao was worried about unforeseen circumstances, so he decided to bring Chen Hong along, because he knew that Chen Hong had the ability to conceal his aura, which would give Tang Hao a chance to smash Dugu Bo's head in one blow.

Then Tang Hao witnessed Chen Hong's terrifying divine rune ability. By using some of his blood containing soul power, he allowed them to stand unimpeded not far from Dugu Bo, who had stopped midway.

Tang Hao and Chen Hong were less than twenty meters away from Dugu Bo, but Dugu Bo didn't react at all!

If Tang Hao had noticed any unusual activity from Dugu Bo at that time, he could have guaranteed that he would have killed the old poisoner with a single blow before the old poisoner could even use any of his soul skills!

When Tang San started having uncontrollable random thoughts, it meant that Chen Hong was very close to him. Tang San was already enveloped by Chen Hong's invisible mental domain, and his thinking was affected by some strange ideas in Chen Hong's mind, thus becoming strange as well.

This is a passive ability that Chen Hong himself hasn't even realized he possesses. The first person affected was Ning Lu, who believed that "the better one's medical skills, the harder one can beat someone." When Chen Hong was around, she would think about how to beat him up every day. But when Chen Hong wasn't around, she would become engrossed in researching Soul Wine and occasionally offer Chen Hong some warmth, letting him know how good his mother was.

Secondly, Chen Hong's father, Chen Lin, was also affected. Originally a very reliable person, Chen Lin would sometimes show his unreliable side in front of Chen Hong. For example, when Chen Hong was researching the first generation of soul engines, he would throw soul power bombs in Chen Hong's direction. But it is worth mentioning that Chen Lin was rarely affected, and even became less and less affected later on.

Then there are Ye Lingling, Hu Liena and others who are influenced, and they have a lot of inner monologues when they are around Chen Hong.

Even someone as steadfast in his swordsmanship as Ning Quan would be somewhat influenced by spending too much time with Chen Hong. However, perhaps sensing something, Ning Quan always kept a considerable distance from Chen Hong during his training and rest periods. Perhaps this was the intuition of a swordsman?

"Now that you've confirmed that Tang San is safe, let's hurry back."

Chen Hong opened his palm, and the fallen leaf in his hand escaped, following its companions, and launched a final charge towards the sky in the wind.

"Otherwise, if I get back too late, there will be seniors that Senior Haotian can't afford to offend, who will come to check if I'm safe."

Chen Hong gave Tang Hao a bright smile.

Chen Hong himself found it quite amusing. The current situation was like a 'chariot, horse, and cannon being locked in a stalemate,' where pulling one thread would affect the whole situation, and neither Dugu Bo nor Tang Hao could bear such consequences.

Having obtained Chen Hong's complete concept of the three realms of Soul Rings, Qian Daoliu already possesses the potential to further expand the limits of Douluo and has the possibility of directly defeating Tang Hao's ancestor, Tang Chen. Therefore, he is no longer afraid of Tang Chen's possible retaliation.

Therefore, Qian Daoliu, who was full of hope for his future, no longer took the Haotian Sect seriously.

If Tang Hao really dares to continue provoking Qian Daoliu, then Qian Daoliu, in a state of unbridled rage, wouldn't mind slaughtering the entire Haotian Sect.

Having already escaped with his life from Qian Daoliu's clutches, Tang Hao could understand Qian Daoliu's invincible belief in recovery.

so.

"Let's go, I'll take you home."
