Douluo Continent: Twin Golden and Silver Dragons Shock Bibi Dong

However, before everyone could recover from the shock of starting off, Xuan Hao's earlier "precautionary measures" began to come true.

Due to the excessive consumption of energy and the turmoil of qi and blood, the crimson shield surrounding the carriage began to flicker violently and became extremely unstable.

Strands of high-altitude wind whistled into the carriage through the gaps in the shield.

The intense acceleration, combined with the violent turbulence caused by the ultra-high-speed flight, immediately sent chills down the spines of everyone in the car, and made their stomachs churn.

But Xuan Hao outside seemed to have no intention of slowing down at all; on the contrary, he flew faster and faster.

Later on, his already unstable blood and qi shield was used solely to protect the load-bearing structure of the carriage, preventing the wooden cart from disintegrating in mid-air.

As for issues like drafts and bumps, he no longer cared about those aspects of the travel experience.

Fortunately, Na'er was still in the carriage. Seeing everyone being jostled around so much, Na'er helplessly raised her little hand, and a blue light flowed from her fingertips.

She precisely manipulated the wind element, forming a streamlined wind wall around the carriage, which greatly reduced the terrifying wind resistance coming from the front, giving the people in the carriage a chance to catch their breath.

Under such reckless high-speed racing.

The next morning, as soon as the first light appeared on the horizon, the magnificent outline of Tiandou City's walls appeared on the horizon.

"boom--"

Xuan Hao carried the carriage and landed steadily on the official road outside Tian Dou City. After a whole night of frantic travel, even with his profound foundation, his soul power was almost completely depleted, and he exhaled a heavy breath as he landed.

As soon as the carriage came to a stop, the carriage door was eagerly pushed open from the inside.

The members of the Royal Fighting Team, along with Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu, filed out of the car one by one, their faces pale and their legs weak.

These elegant young geniuses no longer cared about their image. They tumbled and collapsed on the grass outside the city gate. Some even lay on the roadside retching, looking miserable and half-dead.

"I'm going to die... I'm really going to die this time..."

Oslo lay sprawled on the ground, staring blankly at the sky, his voice so weak it sounded like he might die at any moment, "This thing... even if you kill me, I will never ride it a second time!"

Chapter 203 Who could have done this to you?

……

After everyone had been lying on the grass outside the city for a while, finally suppressing the churning in their stomachs, Xuan Hao led the group of people whose legs were still trembling into Tian Dou City.

Knowing the way well, the group headed straight for the most luxurious Tiandou Royal Hotel in the city center.

Xuan Hao had already booked the entire top-floor luxury suite here, and it was a yearly reservation.

It wasn't that he lacked the money to buy a grand, detached mansion; it was simply that he felt that houses, as fixed assets, had little practical value.

With his personality of being able to pack up and leave at any time and roam the world freely, it's really unnecessary for him to be tied down by an inanimate building.

Staying in a top-tier hotel means having someone to take care of your meals and daily needs around the clock; you can stay whenever you want and leave whenever you want—it couldn't be more convenient.

However, no sooner had Xuan Hao settled back into the hotel and taken a shower than a familiar figure showed up at his door.

It was Xue Qinghe, the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Dou Empire, who had received the news and rushed over in a great hurry.

Having not seen each other for half a year, Xue Qinghe skipped even the superficial pleasantries and pulled Xuan Hao into a secluded private room as soon as he entered.

As soon as the door closed, the Crown Prince, disguised as Qian Renxue, coldly launched into a barrage of questions:

"Didn't you say before you left that you were just going to Soto City to bring Ning Rongrong back? Does it really take half a year to find someone? Also, what's the story with that new girl, Zhu Zhuqing, who's with you?"

Hearing these words, which were full of accusation, Xuan Hao was speechless.

Why is this Crown Prince suddenly starting to meddle in his private life? Is there anything wrong with him going out for a walk, making some friends, and bringing someone back with him?

“Your Highness,” Xuan Hao said, leaning back on the sofa, his tone somewhat displeased, “Na’er is by my side every day, and that girl hasn’t said anything. So what gives you the right to stand here and interfere? Aren’t you being a bit nosy?”

Over the years, Qian Renxue's desire to control him has become stronger and stronger. Sometimes, her possessiveness is so natural that he can't be bothered to pay attention to her. She's even more of a meddlesome person than a housekeeper.

Faced with Xuan Hao's merciless retort, Qian Renxue gritted her teeth in anger.

But she sadly discovered that she couldn't find a suitable position to refute it. What kind of relationship did she have with Xuan Hao? It seemed that they didn't have any real status or title; at most, they were "allies" who kept each other in the dark.

However, Qian Renxue was quick-witted and immediately found a new excuse to attack.

"Fine, I won't concern myself with your personal matters. Let me ask you something important!" Qian Renxue stepped forward, staring intently at him. "Who was it that had the audacity to say that once I broke through to Soul Saint, you would teach me how to condense a Soul Core? And what happened? Almost two years have passed, and I'm already level 75, and you haven't even taught me a shred of what a Soul Core is!"

"I've been busy out here for the past six months, haven't I..."

Xuan Hao rubbed his temples helplessly, then simply tilted his body and lay down on the large sofa.

"Condensing a soul core is no joke; it can't be done in a short time. Besides, I'm about to break through level 70. I'll deal with it all at once after I get my seventh soul ring."

Hearing the slightly tired and weak tone, Qian Renxue realized that something was wrong.

She frowned, carefully examining Xuan Hao, who was slumped on the sofa. Although his appearance was clean and there were no visible injuries, his listless and lethargic aura could not be hidden from her.

"What's wrong? You're not acting right." Qian Renxue's expression tightened, her tone shifting from accusation to concern. "Who could have done this to you?"

Xuan Hao stared at the ceiling of the private room and gave a self-deprecating laugh:

"I've been living in Tiandou City for the past few years, crushing so many newbies that I've gotten a bit cocky. This time when I went out, I almost crashed in a ditch."

He is capable of fighting beyond his level. With this foundation, he can easily defeat Soul Saints and even ordinary Soul Douluos, despite his Soul Emperor cultivation level.

But this time, Tang Hao was someone who was a top genius who could fight against a Title Douluo with only the cultivation of a Soul Douluo.

It's pure, overwhelming power.

When you've been dominating weaker opponents for too long, it's easy to lose sight of your own limitations.

"Who did you run into?" Qian Renxue frowned, her eyes full of confusion. "With your strength, who could possibly cause you to suffer such a setback?"

She knew Xuan Hao's background perfectly well. Even now, having reached the level of a Soul Saint at level seventy-five and able to activate her Martial Soul True Body at will, she would still be the one to lose once both sides went all out.

When she activates her Martial Soul True Form and unleashes her Angel Domain, across the entire Douluo Continent, apart from true Title Douluos, most Soul Saints and even Soul Douluos are helpless against her.

Since Xuan Hao can defeat her with certainty, there is almost no one below the Title Douluo level who can make him suffer such a great loss.

Qian Renxue took a deep breath. "So... the other party is a Title Douluo?"

Xuan Hao lay on the sofa and readily admitted without hiding anything: "Yes, I ran into Tang Hao outside Soto City."

"The power of the Clear Sky Hammer is truly exaggerated." Xuan Hao rubbed his aching chest and sighed, "If the difference in soul power were within ten levels, even if he had a 100,000-year soul ring, I might have a chance to compete with him. But with this nearly thirty-level difference in soul power, there's no way I can fight him. He didn't even exert much effort; it was pure numerical crushing. I'm about to give up."

"Tang Hao?!"

Qian Renxue's expression changed instantly, and she stood up straight.

"He actually showed up in Soto City?" Qian Renxue stared at Xuan Hao anxiously. "Now that you've discovered him, why didn't you contact the Spirit Hall immediately?"

Xuan Hao looked at her like she was an idiot, then rolled his eyes speechlessly: "Contact the Spirit Hall? Are you trying to find some cannon fodder to die?"

"you……"

"Stop with the 'you, you, you'." Xuan Hao interrupted her. "Let's not even talk about those useless trash from the Spirit Hall in Soto City who aren't even Soul Douluos. Even those old fogies in the Spirit City Elder Hall, go back and ask them one by one, how many of them dare to stand up and fight Tang Hao one-on-one?"

Qian Renxue was speechless for a moment.

Xuan Hao's words were harsh, but they were all true.

Back then, Tang Hao had just broken through to the Title Douluo level. He single-handedly used his Clear Sky Hammer to forcefully repel the encirclement and attack of Qian Xunji, the former Pope of the Spirit Hall, and two Title Douluos, achieving a terrifying feat of defeating three opponents with a single blow.

That battle left many elders in the Elder Hall with deep psychological trauma from that man and that black hammer.

Qian Renxue knew very well that if they obtained Tang Hao's exact whereabouts and prepared to take action, the Elders' Hall would absolutely not dare to provoke him if they had fewer than three Title Douluos.

However, even if three Title Douluos were to besiege him, with Tang Hao's strength, if he was determined to leave, who could truly stop him?

Chapter 204 I'm still a child!

……

Speechless after being uttered by Xuan Hao's words, Qian Renxue remained silent for a long time.

After she suppressed those chaotic thoughts, she suddenly realized a crucial issue, and doubt reappeared in her eyes:

"Wait a minute. Since you encountered Tang Hao in Soto City, and you admitted that you were no match for him... then how did you escape?" Qian Renxue stared intently at Xuan Hao. "Given Tang Hao's mad nature, if he really intended to kill you, even with all your trump cards, it would have been difficult for you to escape unscathed, right?"

"Run? Why should I run?"

Xuan Hao looked at her as if she were an idiot, his tone utterly speechless, "I have no past grudges or present enmity with Tang Hao, so why would he kill me? Besides, who am I? Others may not know who's behind me, but don't you know?"

Xuan Hao snorted coldly: "If he really dares to kill me, does he not want to live? Or does his Haotian Sect, hiding deep in the mountains, want to die out completely?"

Hearing these extremely arrogant yet incredibly realistic words, Qian Renxue was very unhappy with his arrogant attitude, but she had to admit that Xuan Hao did indeed have the confidence to back it up.

"Then why did Tang Hao suddenly contact you?"

Qian Renxue was completely baffled. "That guy vanished into thin air after that battle, disappearing from the continent for over a decade. Even the Spirit Hall couldn't find a trace of him despite sending out so many spies. How could he suddenly appear in a small place like Soto City? And even reveal his identity to you?"

"Well..."

Xuan Hao stroked his chin, his eyes somewhat unfocused, and casually replied, "I'm not really sure either. Maybe... it's just because I acted too arrogantly during my time in Soto City."

Seeing Qian Renxue's face gradually darken, Xuan Hao continued his nonsense: "You don't know, a while ago in Soto City, I gave that girl Zhu Zhuqing the ten-thousand-year-old dragon-tiger beast skeleton I had obtained as a gift. As a result, money can be tempting, attracting a large group of reckless rogue cultivators and local forces to come out and fight over it. Then, I lost my temper and killed all those ignorant fools."

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue was speechless and even rubbed her temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

"Of course I've heard the news."

Qian Renxue rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "Do you know how fast the news spread that an extremely rare, top-grade ten-thousand-year-old torso soul bone appeared in Soto City, and it was on a teenage girl? Even in Tiandou City, many noble families and soul master families have secretly set their sights on it."

"It was only after that old fox Ning Fengzhi got the news that he immediately used the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's intelligence network to spread your identity and background in a half-concealed manner. That's how the greed of all parties was forcibly suppressed."

"If Ning Fengzhi hadn't acted quickly, do you think you could have lived so peacefully in Soto City? There would definitely have been plenty of people pretending not to know your true identity, plotting to kill and rob in Soto City, or even dispose of your body to cover it up!"

"Yes, that's why I said it."

Xuan Hao slapped his thigh and continued, following Qian Renxue's words, "It must be because I was too arrogant and high-profile in Soto City. That old madman Tang Hao was hiding in the shadows and didn't like me, so he came out in the middle of the night to teach me a lesson. Of course..."

Xuan Hao curled his lip and added with a look of disgust, "It's also possible that the guy has been hiding in the ditch all these years and his mentality has become twisted. He can't stand the emergence of a genius who is more awesome and arrogant than he was back then, so he comes out to find some sense of existence."

"..."

Qian Renxue was completely speechless, her chest heaving violently twice.

"Xuan Hao, I'm seriously asking you for information!" Qian Renxue glared at him through gritted teeth. "It concerns Tang Hao, so can you stop spouting this nonsense?"

"Damn it, I was serious, okay?!"

Xuan Hao helplessly shrugged, his face full of innocence. "Don't you know what kind of person I am? Apart from occasionally liking to show off, I'm usually very low-key."

“I have absolutely no connection with the Haotian Sect, and we have no grudges against each other. In fact, because of some business dealings in the past, I have a certain relationship with Madam Yue of Yuexuan. After all, I am a man who can spend the night on the top floor of Yuexuan and have a long talk with Madam Tang by candlelight.”
