I've already been given the title of Douluo, and you want me to be reasonable?

Chapter 165 Arriving at Holy Soul Village, Preparing to Take Ah Yin Away
Upon hearing Lin Yuan's words, the villagers in front of him were immediately terrified, their faces turning ashen, their bodies trembling slightly, and they subconsciously looked around.

After confirming that no one was around, the villager wiped the sweat from his cheeks and said in a low voice, almost in a whisper:

"My lord, you mustn't speak carelessly! The city lord has connections, and I've heard he's related to a powerful figure in Tiandou City. How dare we, mere commoners, fight against them?"

Canglong Shangque walked over with a furrowed brow and said loudly, "In broad daylight, how can these corrupt officials be allowed to run rampant!"

Upon hearing these words, the villager turned deathly pale, knelt on the ground with a thud, and pleaded tremblingly:
"Sirs, please don't drag us down with you! We want to live a few more years in this world; we still have children to raise..."

Just then, Elder Jack, the village chief of Holy Soul Village, walked over from not far away. Thinking that the villager had offended the Soul Master, he immediately begged for mercy, saying, "Two Soul Masters, what did Er Gou do to offend you? I am the village chief of Holy Soul Village. Please forgive us for being ordinary people."

Lin Yuan looked at the white-haired old Jack, who was leaning on a cane, and slowly said, "You misunderstood. He did not offend us."

Hearing that no one had been offended, Old Jack finally felt relieved, fearing that Er Gou might have offended a senior Soul Master with his clumsy actions, and that even ten lives wouldn't be enough to compensate for it.

Old Jack stroked his pale goatee, gestured for him to enter, and said, "Soul Master, what brings you here today?"

"We're here to find Tang Hao."

To avoid alerting the enemy, Lin Yuan slowly spoke, "Where is Tang Hao's house? Could you take us there?"

Upon hearing that they were looking for Tang Hao, Old Jack chuckled and said, "Sir, you're too late. That drunkard Tang Hao has already left Holy Soul Village, and we don't know where he is now."

"It's alright, you just need to take me there, we'll take care of the rest ourselves."

Upon hearing this, Old Jack nodded, then turned around and led Lin Yuan and Canglong towards the distance.

During the conversation, Old Jack talked a lot about Tang Hao, but he mostly said that Tang Hao was ungrateful.

The village of Holy Souls took them in and even handed over the job of the former blacksmith to him. However, Tang Hao left without saying goodbye, leaving the village without a blacksmith.

All ironware needs must be purchased in Nottingham.

As a result, the villagers who wanted to buy ironware had to travel by carriage to Nottingham, which wasted a lot of time.

Recalling this incident, Old Jack felt remorseful for Tang Hao's actions. After all, if it weren't for his pity for Tang Hao, Old Jack wouldn't have let him stay in Holy Soul Village, nor would he have arranged for a carpenter to build a house for him.

Who would have thought that this guy would be so ungrateful as to leave the village without sending back any message before leaving, which made the village elder Jack and the others furious.

"That damned Tang Hao does nothing but drink all day long. If it weren't for his good son, we would have kicked him out of Holy Soul Village long ago. Who would have thought that guy would be so ungrateful and shameless?"

Old Jack's biggest worry was Tang Hao's son, Tang San. If it weren't for Tang San, would Tang Hao really be able to stay in Holy Soul Village? "Soul Master, is it that bastard Tang Hao caused trouble in the city, which is why you and this senior have come to my Holy Soul Village? Let me make it clear beforehand, Tang Hao has nothing to do with our village, and whether that guy lives or dies is none of our business."

Old Jack was still quite afraid that Tang Hao, that bastard, would cause trouble in the city and end up being hunted down or something.

Therefore, upon learning that the two seniors had come because of Tang Hao, they couldn't help but make things clear beforehand, fearing that this matter would anger the people of their Holy Soul Village.

Lin Yuan, with one hand behind his back and a calm expression, said, "Don't worry, I have no intention of harming the people. Besides, I came here just to find Tang Hao's house. The village doesn't need to worry about anything else. Just lead us there."

Upon hearing this, Jack nodded slightly and didn't say anything more. After all, he was already grateful that Tang Hao, that old drunkard, wasn't causing trouble for the people in their village, let alone whether he was still alive.

Led by Old Jack, Lin Yuan soon arrived at the place where Tang Hao used to live. Because it was a remote place and the locals weren't very friendly, the village children rarely came here.

"Senior Soul Master, Tang Hao's house is just ahead. However, no one has been home recently, so the house is quite dusty. Given your high status, it would be best if you didn't go in."

Tang Hao's home is located on the west side of Shenghun Village, at the entrance of the village. His three mud-brick houses are the most rudimentary in the entire village.

On the roof of the central building, there is a wooden plaque about one meter in diameter, with a simple hammer depicted on it. In this world, the hammer most broadly represents a blacksmith.

Looking at the dilapidated house in front of him, Lin Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, but still took out a bag of gold soul coins and handed it to the old Jack in front of him.

Old Jack looked at the gold soul coins handed to him and his throat bobbed, because the people in his village only earned a few dozen silver soul coins a year, and they rarely even saw gold soul coins.

The fact that the Soul Master in front of them could produce so many gold Soul Coins was an unimaginable windfall for them.

Lin Yuan put one hand behind his back, glanced at Village Chief Jack, and said, "Old Village Chief Jack, you should go back now. Don't mention what happened today to anyone, understand?"

Old Jack stroked his pale goatee and said with a smile, "Don't worry, senior Soul Master, leave this matter to me. I guarantee nothing will happen."

Looking at the confident old village chief Jack, Lin Yuan nodded with satisfaction. After the other party left, he looked at Tang Hao's wooden house in front of him.

As a titled Douluo powerhouse, he could clearly sense the energy fluctuations emanating from it, which were obviously the energy left behind by Tang Hao.

Canglong Shangque pushed open the door in front of him with force, and a strong earthy smell immediately wafted out, along with countless dust particles floating in the air.

Canglong Shangque narrowed his eyes, looking Tang Hao's house up and down, and couldn't help but say, "This is the home of Haotian Douluo Tang Hao?"
