Douluo Continent: From Blue Silver Grass to Nine-Leaf Sword Grass

Chapter 97 The Chrysanthemum Demon Attacks

Tang Hao had known about Xiao Wu's identity for a long time, but he had never exposed her or taken any action against her.

Is it because his wife, Ah Yin, is also a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form?

Therefore, Tang Hao didn't think there was anything wrong with his son liking Xiao Wu.

However, he also knew that Xiao Wu's identity was extremely sensitive.

It's fine if Dugu Bo knows for now, but what if the Spirit Hall finds out?

That scene will inevitably repeat itself, with them relentlessly pursuing and killing Xiao Wu.

Not only is he incapable of protecting Xiao Wu, but judging from his son Tang San's current feelings for Xiao Wu...

He would most likely do everything in his power to protect the other party, but right now his own son is just a Great Soul Master.

They are no different from ants in front of the Spirit Hall.

And if it really comes to that point, and Xiao Wu sacrifices herself, then her son's Blue Silver Grass third soul ring will become a 100,000-year level.

While it's true that a sacrifice can disregard a Soul Master's cultivation level.

This was equally unacceptable to Tang Hao; in his eyes, even if it really came to that point...

Xiao Wu also had to sacrifice herself for Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer spirit, and the 100,000-year spirit ring was so precious.

It would be more reasonable to make it the ninth or seventh spirit ring for one's own son's Clear Sky Hammer spirit.

At this moment, after seeing that Jiang Li possessed the Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul, Tang Hao was already convinced of the fact that Jiang Li had cheated on him.

So he also lost trust in Xiao Wu, and unconsciously began to think about which number of soul rings would be more suitable for her to sacrifice herself.

After regaining his senses, Tang Hao looked at Dugu Bo in front of him and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

He now knows that his son's temper makes it absolutely impossible for anyone to take Xiaowu away from him.

So when Tang Hao looked at Dugu Bo, he finally gave in.

"Dugu Bo, you must swear by your martial spirit that you will not reveal this girl's true identity."

Seeing that the other party had compromised, Dugu Bo breathed a sigh of relief and also decisively stated that he would not reveal Xiao Wu's identity to the Spirit Hall.

Afterwards, Dugu Bo led Jiang Li and the other two away from the place quickly.

After all, Dugu Bo didn't know Tang Hao's true strength at the moment, and considering Tang Hao's reputation from back then, he was unwilling to confront him.

After Dugu Bo left, Tang Hao also looked at Shilaike and his three companions, even though they concealed their emotions very well.

But Tang Hao also knew that he needed to give them an explanation, so after thinking for a moment, he finally looked at them very seriously and spoke.

At this moment, Xiao Wu's heart was so nervous that it almost jumped into her throat, fearing that Tang Hao would reveal her true identity.

"Actually, Xiao Wu's true identity is the child of the Spirit Hall's enemy from back then..."

Immediately afterwards, Tang Hao fabricated Xiao Wu's identity, claiming she was the last survivor of a clan that had almost been wiped out by the Spirit Hall.

Based on this reason, even Dai Mubai, one of the four members of Shilaike, couldn't help but believe it with some skepticism.

To be honest, there were quite a few people who opposed the Spirit Hall back then. It wasn't uncommon for people like Xiao Wu to have their entire families wiped out, but only a handful of them might survive.

After learning this, Tang San immediately pulled Xiao Wu up and couldn't help but express his feelings.

"Xiao Wu, I will definitely protect you."

Upon seeing Tang San's assurance, Xiao Wu couldn't help but have tears welling up in her eyes.

You should know that Tang San's willingness to protect her under these circumstances was already quite unexpected for her.

But just before parting, Tang Hao called out to Xiao Wu, saying he wanted to give her some advice.

This made Tang San a little jealous, because his father, Tang Hao, was leaving again without explaining the reason to him.

But Xiao Wu's eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of misery. At this moment, she thought that Tang Hao was finally going to do something to her.

Once they arrived at the grove, Tang Hao gave Xiao Wu a look that was hard to describe, and then his first words stunned her.

"Xiao Wu, you don't need to be afraid, because Tang San's mother was also a soul beast..."

Then, Tang Hao began to tell the story of himself and Ah Yin.

Xiao Wu was naturally moved to tears by the story, and then she spoke tentatively.

"So you don't object to me having an affair?"

"How could that be? But you must be very careful."

After Tang Hao's reply, Xiao Wu's face couldn't help but beam with happiness.

After saying goodbye, Xiao Wu caught up with Tang San and the others.

Tang Hao's eyes flashed with strange emotions, and he couldn't help but think to himself: If Tang San weren't so stubborn, I would really like to take action directly. Oh well, even if these two can't end up together, the worst outcome would be the same as what happened to me and Ah Yin.

Tang Hao had just had a sudden realization.

Dating a transformed soul beast carries the risk of infidelity or something similar, but when faced with danger, they are truly willing to sacrifice themselves.

Since that's the case, it would be better to let Xiao Wu stay by Tang San's side.

On the other side, after bringing Jiang Li and the others back, Dugu Bo looked at them and couldn't help but speak.

"Being targeted by Haotian Douluo is not good news. Xiao Li's swordsmanship has already made a breakthrough. You'd better not leave Tiandou City for the next few years."

Jiang Li and the other two could only nod slightly in response to these words.

Then, Jiang Li had only one thought in his mind: after condensing his sword intent, the most important thing for him at this moment was to completely master it.

However, Jiang Li's seclusion lasted only a few days before he couldn't help but open his eyes, because he sensed that, apart from Dugu Bo's aura, there was nothing else in the mansion at that moment.

Two more beings, whose soul power fluctuations were in no way inferior to Dugu Bo's, remained here.

Faced with this suddenly appearing powerful enemy, Jiang Li was forced to interrupt his seclusion and look with Dugu Yan at the two figures, one black and one white, opposite Dugu Bo in mid-air.

At this moment, Dugu Bo looked at the two people in front of him and couldn't help but frown. He looked at them and spoke in an impatient tone.

"Old Chrysanthemum, and you old ghost, I remember saying I had no interest in joining the Spirit Hall, right? It's only been a few years, why are you two here again?"

Upon being addressed by Dugu Bo, the white-clad figure's delicate eyebrows furrowed, her face resembling a woman's. She was about to lash out at Dugu Bo when she was stopped by the black-clad figure beside her.

The black-clad figure slowly revealed its somewhat pale face, and the eerie aura surrounding it clearly indicated its identity.

After scrutinizing Dugu Bo for a moment, his somewhat hoarse voice, carrying a sinister tone, couldn't help but speak.

"Hehe, the past is the past, and the present is the present. I didn't expect that you old thing could still solve your own martial soul problem and break through to level 95. Judging from the current fluctuations in your aura, you are only one step away from level 96. A powerhouse of this level is naturally worth His Holiness the Pope asking us to come back again and talk to you about terms."

Looking at the two of them, Dugu Bo felt a sense of helplessness, but couldn't help but look at them and speak.

"Didn't you two always look down on my strength? You even said that even if I were at the same level as you, I still couldn't beat you two. And I think my attitude before was firm enough."
