For Tang Gou San, Xiao Rou was his one true love and the love of his life. How could he let her know that he was the one who killed Tang Ri Tian?
Without the slightest hesitation, Tang Gou San directly attributed Tang Ritian's death to the Martial Hall.
If it were anyone else, they would have clearly seen the poisoned needle in Tang Ritian's chest, and since Tang Gou San was the only person present, how could they possibly believe such an explanation?
But Xiaorou was different. She believed it instantly, and tears streamed down her face. Looking at Tang Ritian's peaceful death, she was filled with grief and said:
"Uncle Tang died at the hands of the Martial Hall before he could even attend our wedding..."
Upon hearing this, Tang Gou San felt a pang of pain in his heart, as if he too had come to believe the fabricated reason. He gritted his teeth and said hatefully:
"One day I will make the Martial Hall pay the price and avenge the murder of my father!"
Such shameless words immediately made the Martial Hall experts hiding all around unable to sit still.
A deep, resonant voice echoed from all around:
"Boy, you're lying through your teeth. I've never seen such a shameless person before."
In an instant, four peak Martial Hall experts revealed themselves, and behind them were dozens of experts at level seventy-something, surrounding Tang Gou San and Xiao Rou in the center.
However, Stephen Chow did not appear; he remained hidden in the shadows, watching the scene unfold with the peerless Pope in his arms.
These people were naturally ordered by him to ambush in the Spirit Forest, since Tang Gou San went to the Spirit Forest ahead of time because of his butterfly effect.
The level 90 powerhouse who originally blocked Tang Gou San was also killed when he arrived, so naturally he had to prepare some more for Lord Sea God.
After all, that poignant sacrifice is the more important drama today than the father-son conflict.
With four peak experts and dozens of experts at level seventy-something, this force is more than enough even for a major sect on the Martial Soul Continent.
These people were drawn by Zhou Xingdou from those who were preparing to exterminate the Martial Hall. The so-called plan to unify the continent was also canceled by Zhou Xingdou.
Faced with so many powerful individuals far surpassing himself, including four peak level 95 experts, even Tang Gou San, the chosen one of the plane, was terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.
Xiao Rou, like a startled rabbit, looked at everything with fear and helplessness, and timidly asked:
"Brother Gou San, why are there so many people from the Martial Hall?"
Even now, Tang Gou San still tries to absolve himself of responsibility for patricide:
"It was them! They killed my father!"
However, Tang Gou San suddenly remembered something and quickly asked Xiao Rou:
"Xiaorou, where are your two younger brothers?"
He knew that Xiao Rou's younger brother was the king of the beasts in the Martial Soul Forest. As long as those two beast kings were distracting him, he could definitely escape using his movement skills!
A look of confusion suddenly appeared in Xiaorou's pink eyes, and she unconsciously leaned towards the trees behind her.
"Didn't Brother Gou San's letter tell me not to bring them?"
At this moment, Xiao Rou felt a little regretful. She should have been more cautious and let her two younger brothers accompany her.
But Tang Gou San was greatly surprised when he heard this:
"What? When did I write you a letter?"
He didn't even know exactly where Xiao Rou was in the center of the Spirit Forest, let alone that it was the central area, where ancient beasts were everywhere, so who would send a message there?
Zhou Xingdou, hidden in the shadows, smiled slightly. This was naturally his handwriting. Finding Tang Gou San's handwriting was not difficult for the Martial Hall, and finding someone to copy a letter was even simpler.
This clumsy method could have been figured out with a little thought, but the silly rabbit treasured the letter as if it were a precious gem, without a shred of suspicion.
With just a slight guidance along the way, they lured him to Tang Gou San's location.
Xiao Rou finally realized what was happening, but this wasn't the time to blame herself. She simply said to herself:
"It's alright, the younger brothers will definitely be able to spot the commotion here!"
The four peak experts did not rush to make a move, after all, the terrifying being had not given the order. However, one of the white-haired men looked at Xiao Rou and sneered:
"Are you talking about those two beast kings? Are there beings stronger than us who can deal with them?"
roar!
Howl!
No sooner had the white-haired man finished speaking than a painful roar echoed from the heart of the Martial Soul Forest, followed by another mournful howl.
"younger brother!"
Upon hearing the two roars, Xiao Rou's fair face turned pale, her jade-like legs wrapped in white silk went limp, and she lost her balance in her high heels, collapsing to the ground.
Those two roars were from her two younger brothers, the kings of the beasts, and such painful and shrill roars could only be heard when a beast dies.
Seeing Xiaorou's expression, Tang Gou San immediately understood everything, but being a man after all, he wasn't so frightened that his legs went weak. Instead, he comforted Xiaorou, who was slumped on the ground:
"Xiao Rou, don't be afraid, Brother Gou San will protect you!"
At that moment, a beam of light suddenly pierced through Tang Gou San's leg bone, and a violent explosion rang out. Tang Gou San immediately screamed in agony.
When Tang Gou San finally came to his senses and looked down, he saw that his right leg had been blown to pieces, with blood flowing everywhere and excruciating pain constantly emanating from his lower body.
Xiao Rou gasped in surprise, ignoring her weak legs, and tried to rush forward to check Tang Gou San's injuries, but before she could react, Tang Gou San roared angrily:
"Go! I'll hold them off, you hurry up and run!"
These words caused the surrounding martial arts experts to show strange expressions.
Walk?
As if they didn't exist, huh?
Zhou Xingdou also laughed out loud. This Tang Gou San was really too interesting, and he was even a little reluctant to kill him.
However, Zhou Xingdou also satisfied Tang Gou San by transmitting his voice to the ears of the four peak experts.
Xiao Rou was also taken aback, but the silly rabbit's face showed immense gratitude:
"No, I won't leave. I can't leave Brother Gou San behind."
Tang Gou San was actually somewhat desperate. The intense pain brought him back to his senses. At this moment, his unique internal energy cultivation method and techniques were worthless in front of these four peak experts.
However, to everyone's surprise, the four peak experts of the Martial Hall all changed their expressions. Only the white-haired man who had just shot out a beam of light from his fingertip pointed his finger again.
In an instant, a beam of light shot out, piercing through Tang Gou San's arm, which had already been broken by Tang Ri Tian.
Same recipe, same taste.
Tang Gou San's arm exploded instantly, and the shockwave from the explosion caused his body to roll on the ground, covered in blood, mud, and dirt.
Xiao Rou's face was wet with tears. At this moment, the disheveled figure in front of her overlapped with the small figure from five years ago who was full of vigor and said he would protect her for a lifetime.
Endless grief and despair enveloped Xiaorou's fragile heart. She didn't want anything to happen to her Gou San Ge. If anyone had to die, then it could only be herself.
At this moment, however, the experts of the Martial Hall began to retreat en masse, and the white-haired peak expert gave the order:
"Leave five men to capture them, the rest of you come with me to aid the Pope!"
