Douluo: Legend of the Holy Land

Chapter 111 Xiao Wu Departs

As Yu Xiaogang grew increasingly anxious, the days passed one by one. Although Tang San still hadn't woken up, his bodily functions were gradually recovering, which made Yu Xiaogang secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

"Xiao Wu, you heard what the doctor said. Although Xiao San's injuries are serious, he has passed the most dangerous stage and has begun to recover. He should wake up in ten days to two weeks. You should leave quickly; it's too dangerous for him to stay here now! You'll have a chance to meet again when Xiao San becomes stronger."

Yu Xiaogang now has only two things to do: one is to take care of the unconscious Tang San, and the other is to patiently persuade Xiao Wu to leave.

But Xiao Wu's attitude remained the same as always. She stubbornly shook her head: "Master, you don't need to say anything more. I'm really worried about him until he wakes up. Just let me wait until he does. Don't worry, if those people really come to capture me, I'd rather self-destruct than leave my spirit rings and spirit bones to them!"

You can die if you want, but what I'm afraid of is that your soul rings and soul bones won't be left to my disciple!

Yu Xiaogang cried out in his heart, but he couldn't actually say it out loud. He could only show a helpless bitter smile on his face.

"You must leave the mistress immediately and return to your Starry Sky Forest. Right now, you're only bringing disaster to her!"

Just then, a slightly muffled voice suddenly rang out, and the next moment, a figure appeared in the room.

The newcomer was dressed in a tattered linen garment with loose threads, had a scraggly beard, and had a head of hair that looked like a bird's nest and hadn't been washed in ages.

"Lord Haotian!"

Yu Xiaogang recognized the person at a glance. After all, he was his idol. Even though the person was so disheveled, he still recognized him immediately.

Tang Hao ignored Yu Xiaogang and walked straight to Xiao Wu, looking down at her.

"Sealing the Title Douluo!"

The surge of soul power emanating from Tang Hao instantly turned Xiao Wu's face ashen. "Are you...you here to kill me?"

"No, I won't kill you!"

A forced smile appeared on Tang Hao's stiff face: "In fact, I discovered your identity seven years ago. If I were after your spirit rings and spirit bones, I would have imprisoned you back then. Girl, I am Tang San's father!"

"You...you are Third Brother's father!"

Upon hearing Tang Hao's words, Xiao Wu first breathed a sigh of relief, then her expression became excited. "Do you know that Third Brother has always missed you? Since you discovered my identity a long time ago, it means you have always been by his side. So why don't you come out to see him?"

"This is none of your business."

Tang Hao didn't answer Xiao Wu's question. Instead, he sternly rebuked her, "You're really bold. Don't you know that a transformed soul beast still in its infancy is easily identified, even by a slightly stronger Soul Douluo, let alone a Title Douluo, once it uses its Martial Soul? You actually want to participate in the Soul Master Competition with Xiao San? Are you really afraid you won't die fast enough?"

"I"

Xiao Wu lowered her head after being reprimanded by Tang Hao, stammering and not daring to speak. Even though she was thousands of times older than Tang Hao, she was now being scolded by him like a junior.

Tang Hao sighed and waved his hand, saying, "I've already knocked out the people monitoring outside. You should leave now. Staying by Xiao San's side will only do you harm. Before your identity is completely revealed, if you delay any longer and the Spirit Hall finds out about you, even I won't be able to protect you."

"Okay, I'm leaving!"

Xiao Wu bit her lower lip, then turned her head to look at Tang San lying on the bed with lingering reluctance before silently getting up and walking towards the door, turning back every few steps until her body completely disappeared into the night.

Once Xiao Wu was out of sight, Tang Hao turned his gaze to Yu Xiaogang, his voice now carrying a solemn, murderous intent: "What happened to Xiao San? Who injured him like this?"

Tang Hao had only recently emerged from the City of Slaughter, and as agreed, he placed the inner core of the Ten-Headed Fiery Sun Serpent at the designated location. He then rushed to Soto City to continue protecting his son, only to discover upon arrival that Shrek Academy had moved. Furthermore, because Flander was so stingy, constantly finding excuses to pay less rent when renting land from the villagers, the villagers disliked Shrek Academy intensely, and few paid attention to their movements. Tang Hao had to ask many people before finding out their whereabouts, and hurried to Heaven Dou City.

Upon arriving outside Shrek Academy, they noticed several powerful Soul Masters lurking in the shadows, scattered around the academy, closely watching its every move.

Realizing something was amiss, Tang Hao secretly hid himself and approached them silently using his Title Douluo status. To his surprise, he heard them mention a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast. Tang Hao then realized that Xiao Wu's identity had been exposed. He quickly knocked all the soul masters unconscious and rushed towards the academy.

For Tang Hao, a Title Douluo, the aura of a soul beast was like a beacon in the darkness, and he went straight to Tang San's room.

When they arrived outside Tang San's room, they discovered that his son was seriously injured. He almost flew into a rage and demanded to know why Yu Xiaogang hadn't taken good care of his son.

Fortunately, Yu Xiaogang happened to be telling Xiao Wu what the doctor had said, which saved our Master Yu from being beaten by Tang Hao.

After listening to Yu Xiaogang's words, Tang Hao calmed down and carefully sensed with his soul power. He found that Tang San's various bodily functions were indeed gradually recovering and were no longer in danger of his life. Only then did he choose to deal with Xiao Wu's matter first and then ask Yu Xiaogang what had happened to Tang San.

Yu Xiaogang immediately embellished the story, omitting the fact that Tang San had infiltrated the Nine Star Palace with malicious intent, and only saying that the Nine Star Palace had bullied Tang San and beaten him into this state.

"Nine Star Palace! Dugu Bo! Yang Wudi!"

The petty Tang Hao had not forgotten that Xiao Yu had forced him to go to the Slaughter City to retrieve the inner cores of the ten Fiery Sun Serpents. Now that his son had been beaten into such a miserable state, Tang Hao was filled with both old and new grudges. His soul power suddenly erupted from his body, and the terrifying killing intent almost tore Yu Xiaogang, who was standing right next to him, to shreds.

Whoosh!

The next moment, Tang Hao's figure flashed and he disappeared from the room.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"

Yu Xiaogang gasped for breath, only catching his breath long after Tang Hao disappeared. However, his face showed no sign of discomfort; instead, it was filled with excitement: "Dugu Bo, you old scoundrel, how dare you look down on this master! Let Haotian Douluo teach you a lesson!"
