Chapter 263: Tang Hao's Death
“Boom!”
The ethereal silver long blade clashed repeatedly with the Clear Sky Hammer, which was enveloped in blood-red light, and the immense roar echoed through the mountains.
After the two separated from their latest exchange, Bai Yu looked at the blood-red Tang Hao before him, his brows slightly furrowed.
He knew this was the Asura God's divine sense acting on Tang Hao's behalf. Such a situation was not unexpected, as Tang Hao possessed the Slaughter God Domain and had, in a sense, been marked by the Asura God.
As for temporarily mending the body that was on the verge of collapse, that was also normal. After all, Tang Hao's inability to control the turbulent spirit power within his body did not mean the Asura God's divine sense couldn't.
However, this damn guy was too aloof, wasn't he? Bai Yu had tried to communicate with him several times before, but he was always met with the cold, blunt force of the hammer, with no other response.
But it had to be said, the Asura God was indeed powerful. Fortunately, he was using Tang Hao's current body, which not only lacked divine force but also required the Asura God's divine sense to multitask: maintaining the body's integrity while also using the power of laws to fight, just like Bai Yu.
Otherwise, if it were the complete Tang Hao, he would have to flee now.
“Tsk, I know you’re not Tang Hao, but who exactly are you? Can you say something? If you don’t make a sound, this body of yours won’t be able to hold on much longer.”
“Without this body, this wisp of your divine sense is like rootless duckweed, posing no threat to me. You’ll just have to scurry back.”
“As the saying goes, since you’re already here, why not introduce yourself before you go back? Otherwise, wouldn’t your trip be in vain?”
After Bai Yu finished speaking, ‘Tang Hao’s’ eyes flickered slightly, but he still said nothing. Instead, a surge of blood-red light erupted from his body, and he once again swung his great hammer towards Bai Yu.
Bai Yu’s gaze sharpened, his power rapidly converged, and the long blade in his hand became increasingly solid. Then, with a soft cry, he swung his blade to meet the attack.
“Buzz!”
A pillar of silver and red spirit power spread out from the center of their battle, and its immense power leveled the mountain where the Clear Sky Sect was located.
After this move, Tang Hao’s body, which had been forcibly mended by the Asura God’s divine sense using spirit power, completely collapsed. The last bit of blood remaining in his body gushed out.
‘Tang Hao’ looked at Bai Yu, who had blood trickling from the corner of his mouth and was gasping for breath, and said in a hoarse, cold voice:
“If you want to know who I am, go to Slaughter City. The answer you seek is there.”
As soon as the words fell, the light in ‘Tang Hao’s’ eyes vanished, replaced by a profound stillness. His body lost control and plummeted from the air.
Bai Yu let out a soft breath, his lips curving into a sneer. His tired eyes revealed disdain as he thought to himself:
“Slaughter City? Not even a dog would go there! That wretched place, what have you and Rakshasa turned it into? Who comes out of there a normal person?”
“Besides, if I go to your territory, will I even be able to get out? Do you really think I wouldn’t recognize who you are just by using the Slaughter law?”
Then Bai Yu shook his head, exited his Creation Form, and also descended.
“Your Highness, how are you? Are you hurt anywhere?”
Upon realizing that the battle between the two had ended, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo immediately rushed over.
They only slightly relaxed after seeing that Bai Yu was merely a bit pale and tired, with no other issues.
The commotion just now had truly startled them. If anything had happened to Bai Yu, they would have been held responsible.
Bai Yu glanced at Tang Xiao in Ghost Douluo’s hand, saw that the fellow was still alive, then waved his hand and said:
“I’m fine, just a bit exhausted. You two, gather the Spirit Bones from Tang Hao’s body.”
“Aside from the right arm bone and left leg bone, you can each pick one from the remaining ones according to your needs. The rest will be given to my teacher.”
“As for Tang Xiao, hmm… take him back to Spirit City as well. Lock him in the dungeon for now. We’ll decide what to do with him later.”
“Yes, Saint Child Hall!”
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo’s faces lit up with joy, and they quickly nodded in agreement. After all, who doesn't like Spirit Bones? Moreover, the Spirit Bones within Tang Hao's body were all of high age.
Although the Spirit Hall’s Spirit Bone reserves had greatly increased due to Bai Yu, there were more Spirit Bones, but even more people who needed them.
Therefore, to exchange for Spirit Bones, one needed to make a significant contribution. Even Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo only had three each to this day.
Then, while tidying up Tang Hao, Chrysanthemum Douluo reported the situation to Bai Yu.
“Your Highness, the Strength Clan has been completely cleared out. However, many people from the Clear Sky Sect have escaped. From their direction, they seem to be fleeing towards the Star Luo Empire.”
Bai Yu was sitting on a stone, resting with his eyes closed. Hearing Chrysanthemum Douluo’s words, he responded casually:
“Hmm, it doesn’t matter. Let them run. Given their current situation, they can’t enter the Heaven Dou Empire, so they can only go to Star Luo.”
“And as long as they are in Star Luo, we will eventually encounter them again. We can settle accounts with them then.”
Chrysanthemum Douluo nodded, indicating his understanding. However, while tidying up Tang Hao, he noticed that Tang Hao’s body, if not for the Spirit Bones supporting it, would have already turned into a pile of mud .
He then frowned slightly and asked Bai Yu with some curiosity:
“Your Highness, what’s going on with Tang Hao? Is the Clear Sky Sect’s Ring Explosion secret art really that powerful?”
“And just now, that blood-red power surrounding him, it should be a power of law, just like Your Highness’s, right?”
“This Tang Hao, did he really explode a ring and explode out the power of law? That can’t be, right? If Ring Explosion were truly that powerful, the Clear Sky Sect would have unified the Douluo Continent long ago.”
Hearing Chrysanthemum Douluo’s question, Bai Yu’s mouth twitched slightly, and he shook his head, saying:
“What are you thinking? How could Ring Explosion have that kind of power? The one I was fighting just now was someone else, not Tang Hao. Have you heard of the Slaughter God Domain? The one just now was the master of the Slaughter God Domain.”
“However, you don’t need to worry about him. Without a medium, he can’t manifest and interfere with the Douluo Continent. Just pretend he doesn’t exist.”
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo exchanged glances, both seeing the shock in each other’s eyes. What Bai Yu said was truly terrifying to them.
What did he mean, the master of the Slaughter God Domain? What did he mean, unable to interfere with the Douluo Continent without a medium? These words made their hearts pound!
After that, Chrysanthemum Douluo stopped asking questions. He quickly finished tidying up Tang Hao and, together with Ghost Douluo, bid farewell to Bai Yu and returned to Spirit City.
They were afraid that if they kept listening, they might attract some dirty things. What then? They didn’t have Bai Yu’s strength, so it was best to stay as far away as possible!
After Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo left, Bai Yu also returned to the front line battlefield. However, he did not go to the command post but went to the guerrilla squad formed by the girls.
After all, without Tang Xiao, a Super Douluo, even if the four old guys from the Clear Sky Sect ran over again, they wouldn’t gain any advantage against Bone Douluo and the others.
Since that was the case, why should he go to the command post and drink the northwest wind? Wouldn’t it be more enjoyable to accompany his women and play some wild games?
