Douluo: On Becoming a God through Science

And it seems...

"Master Youchen seems to have an extremely tense relationship with the current pope of the Spirit Hall?"

The scene just now became the best material to add bricks and tiles to Tang Hao's original imagination of the "we are all wanderers in the world" route.

Of course, because of his respect for Tang San and his desire for revenge, even so, he would not confront You Chen.

After all, although it seemed that the two sides had indeed proven that there was a deep conflict, the Pope never chose to kill You Chen. It was possible that this was just another "internal struggle" or "factional struggle" that was common among major forces. You Chen did not betray the Spirit Hall, but was just at odds with the current Pope.

But this did not prevent Tang Hao's hidden hostility towards You Chen from being reduced again. It had reached the point where it was basically impossible for him to attack You Chen unless the conflict was absolutely resolved.

As we all know, the current Pope is the only disciple of the previous Pope!

The person who most wants to kill him to avenge his teacher is most likely the current Pope Bibi Dong!

Tang Hao is a rough man. Although he is a slave of the sect and is unhappy that the Spirit Hall is stronger than the Haotian Sect, he has never thought of overthrowing the Spirit Hall. He does not have such ambition!

Seeing the Spirit Hall in trouble and internal strife? Cool!

Seeing the Haotian Sect overpower the Spirit Hall? Cool!

Seeing Pope Bibi Dong get humiliated? It feels so damn good!

Since he was completely incapable of the second way of enjoying himself, even if it was just to make Bibi Dong lose face and feel uncomfortable, it was a result that Tang Hao could accept!

What's more, it is very likely that the first and third methods will be combined into a package!

So after witnessing this scene, he naturally came up with an idea similar to "the enemy of my enemy is my friend".

Even if you don't contact or cooperate with You Chen, there is no need to cause trouble or trouble for him.

This is probably what Tang Hao was thinking.

And making Tang Hao have this idea was exactly You Chen's purpose...

The threat from Bibi Dong can be put aside for the time being. The biggest threat to him right now is naturally the uncontrollable Tang Hao!

Severely punishing the little female ghost Hu Liena and slapping Bibi Dong in the face can also reduce the possibility of Tang Hao attacking him...

Killing three birds with one stone, isn't that wonderful! ?

Chapter 65: The Lament of the Remnants of the Old Times

Following the idea that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend", Tang Hao silently followed You Chen's back.

"This You Chen, it seems that he has left a tracking method on the Spirit Hall's Soul Emperor? When? Did he leave it during the battle? Even I didn't notice it at all. In a sense, he is really powerful. Humph, but the more powerful he is, the better, and the more trouble he can cause to Bibi Dong!"

With this idea in mind, Tang Hao even began to worry, like a dog trying to catch a rat, that You Chen was too eager to retaliate against Bibi Dong, which might lead to some mistakes, and he would end up capsizing in the gutter of the Spirit Hall's Soul Emperor.

After all, You Chen is just a Soul King, while the other party is a Soul Emperor!

But, it is true...

"Isn't this Soul King's strength a bit too high? Is this a new-age Soul Master?"

Thinking back to the scene where You Chen easily defeated the powerful opponent just now, Tang Hao inexplicably felt as if he was being left behind by the times.

He is a member of the generation that has witnessed You Chen's growth and felt the changes that this man's sudden appearance has brought to the world of soul masters.

It is no exaggeration to say that before and after You Chen emerged as a theoretical master, the history of the soul master world was clearly divided into two halves.

Even though Tang Hao's intelligence could not fully feel the direction of the times and he could not summarize the above sentence, but even as an ordinary soul master who had experienced that period of time, he could still feel the obvious differences between the soul masters of the two eras today.

The most intuitive way is to look at the spirit ring.

As an "old guy" whose martial soul cultivation was basically complete when You Chen debuted, he did not get any benefits from it.

Coupled with the ideological imprint of "my Haotian Hammer is the best in the world", he has never taken this kind of benefit seriously.

It can be seen that You Chen, as a Soul King, defeated a Soul Emperor of the same family with an almost overwhelming advantage despite being at a disadvantage in the quality of his martial soul (You Chen deliberately suppressed his strength)... Tang Hao could not help but acknowledge You Chen's strength.

Not only is it powerful in terms of combat capability, the most important thing is that it can greatly reduce the gap between the ranks of soul masters...

It’s like a long-time card-drawing mobile game player who comes back to the game two years later and is shocked to find that his old friends are being beaten in all aspects by the new-age characters.

In particular, the soul master world has always been in a rigid, closed and outdated state, with almost no "update" in hundreds of years, which makes the shock even stronger.

"Even I, Tang Hao, have to face up to the existence that can change the times, but the current leaders of the Spirit Hall have rejected it... It's right that the Spirit Hall will continue to weaken!"

Thinking of this, Tang Hao was inexplicably happy.

While Tang Hao was displaying his Ah Q spirit, after more than an hour, the distance between You Chen and Hu Liena finally shortened to a level visible to the naked eye...

……

It was a cave that was hidden very deeply and perfectly concealed by the structure of the mountain stream.

You Chen looked at the cave entrance from afar and asked faintly, "It's hidden in a place like this?"

If he hadn't been able to make the final decision based on the mental imprint, he might not have been able to discover it.

However, Bai Hu's initiative to hide in this terrain actually greatly reduced the difficulty of cutting off his retreat, just like a turtle that voluntarily fell into a jar.

When You Chenping flew towards the cave, Bai Hu also walked out of the cave with a gloomy face.

This is understandable. With Tang Hao following behind him, You Chen has no intention of showing the perfect effect of the Breath-Containing Technique.

"Youchen, do you really want to do this to the extreme?" Bai Hu asked in a low voice.

You Chen couldn't help laughing when he heard such funny words, he was puzzled and amused: "Didn't I already give you a choice?"

Bai Hu sighed, gave way to the cave, and lowered his head and said, "In that case... I can pretend that I didn't see it. But I hope you don't go too far, otherwise, His Holiness the Pope will lose face, and I will suffer, but you won't have an easy time either!"

"?"

You Chen was stunned for a moment when he saw Bai Hu talking nonsense to himself.

then……

Whoosh!

You Chen's soul ring lit up, and his wings flapped, his speed increased dramatically. As he closed the distance, a spiral of sadistic storm swept towards Bai Hu, and energy gathered in his mouth at the same time.

You Chen decided not to waste any more time.

Bai Hu never expected You Chen to start a fight over a disagreement. His eyes widened: "You——"

Woo~——.

The wind howled.

In just a blink of an eye, Bai Hu only had time to complete the action of martial spirit possession and sidestepping, and the part from his right arm to his shoulder was completely blown away by the "Roar of the Wind Dragon" and disappeared.

“Gah!”

The white swan let out a scream that was incoherent.

With such intense pain, he should have rolled his eyes and fainted, but even if his brain was old and dull, Bai Hu knew what would be the end of him if he fainted at this moment!

'He's going to kill me!? He's really going to kill me! This lunatic!'

His strong will to survive allowed him to retain a bit of consciousness.

"Spare your life!"

He chose to beg for mercy, and at the very moment of begging for mercy, he activated his fifth soul ring.

Begging for mercy was just a strategy he used to slow You Chen down as much as possible. He had already planned to abandon the task given to him by Bibi Dong and run away, leaving Hu Liena behind.

Although until now he still couldn't understand why You Chen wanted to kill him, his instinct for survival still made him make the quickest decision.

'He can't catch up with my speed. If I can escape this time, I will definitely succeed!'

But some things and some gaps cannot be changed or smoothed out by relying on mysterious things like willpower and explosiveness.

What it can't do it just can't do.

Bai Hu did not notice that along with his right arm, one of his wings was also broken and shattered by You Chen in the previous impact.

The moment of acceleration, the unbalanced body fell to the ground instantly.

pat.

You Chen stepped on Bai Hu's left hand.

Bai Hu raised his head and showed a pleading expression: "Don't..."

Stardust flashes...

You Chen had no expression on his face. Without hesitation, he tensed the muscles of one dragon wing and cut off the white swan's head like a blade.

The head rolled over, and the white swan's eyes bulged out like dead fish, with the setting sun's afterglow reflected in them.

In a trance, he seemed to see a beautiful white bird flying high in the distance, but finally it flew into the sunset, melted into nothingness and disappeared.

Until his death, Bai Hu was thinking: 'Why?'

Why would I die in such a place? Why would I die in such a strange mission?

The most important thing is...what kind of hatred or grudge is it that You Chen wants to kill me?

"Isn't he afraid of being investigated by His Holiness the Pope?"

He thought he would care a lot about the answer to this question, because he would not be able to rest in peace until his death if he didn't understand the answer.

But at the end of the revolving lantern, he was finally forced to review his mediocre life, and a deeper emotion called unwillingness emerged rather than doubt.

Although he has some talent, he is not a truly outstanding genius. He is limited by his commoner background and his unwillingness to fight for things. He lags behind in all kinds of resources and eventually stops at the Soul Emperor level.

He longed to break free from the shackles and go further. Even when he grew old, this desire never disappeared, but only changed its form.

He was extremely eager to become a Soul Saint. Perhaps if he became a Soul Saint, he would become a real big shot and no longer need to look at other people's faces...

For this reason, he was willing to be the Pope's dog to protect a willful little girl of eleven or twelve years old.

'Speaking of which, compared to me, Hu Liena, who was accepted as a disciple by His Holiness the Pope, should be considered a true genius, right?'

This became Bai Hu's last thought.

Chapter 66: Happy scaring of children

Bai Hu was puzzled until his death as to why You Chen dared to kill him, the guard sent by the Pope to Hu Liena.

But this is only because he never clearly understood his position from the beginning to the end.

"I'm just a pawn protecting Hu Liena. Even if there is evidence that I killed you, why would Bibi Dong turn against me?"

Looking at Bai Hu's stunned expression before his death, You Chen shook his head silently.

Bibi Dong only sent Bai Hu to protect Hu Liena alone, and even Hu Liena herself didn't know this!

In this remote wilderness of the Fanos province, even if You Chen killed Bai Hu, there would be no evidence.

Suppose Bibi Dong asked someone to come and ask Youchen Baihu about his death? - Sorry, has anyone come? I don't know.

You said he came to Nottingham on a secret mission? -- He was carrying out his secret mission. What does it have to do with me?

Ah? He was secretly protecting Hu Liena? It's impossible that I didn't see him? - Sorry, I really didn't meet him, because I didn't do anything to Hu Liena. Why would he, the protector, come out to see me?

There are no witnesses or material evidence. Unless Bibi Dong forcibly convicts You Chen, there is nothing she can do to him.

And if she really could force You Chen to commit a crime, she would have done so long ago.

It is true that You Chen and Qian Renxue have conflicts and have not seen each other for ten years, but their relationship as master and disciple is not completely broken.

Before Bibi Dong was ready to break off relations with Qian Renxue and the Worship Hall behind Qian Renxue, she would not easily touch You Chen.

If You Chen killed Hu Liena, then if Bibi Dong went crazy, she might really kill You Chen regardless of everything. And it was just a possibility.

But You Chen just killed Bai Hu, a small pawn?

The white swan has no such value.

Since he had killed this fellow Bibi Dong, Bibi Dong couldn't do anything to him. While clipping her wings, he could also disgust Bibi Dong... How could he let go of such a good opportunity! ?

Bai Hu's death can only be said to be completely in vain.

Tang Hao, who witnessed the whole process, had a deeper understanding of You Chen. At least... the conflict between You Chen and the Pope's faction was definitely not a trivial matter!

A Soul Emperor, just like that, killed him brutally without even asking questions! This can only mean that the conflicting impulses between them have already escalated to an irreconcilable level!

On the other side, You Chen didn't even pick up the soul guide that Bai Hu dropped after his death. After simply dealing with his body, he walked into the cave. After confirming that Hu Liena was still unconscious, he flew back to Notting City at a high speed.

He did not intend to just go into the city and return to his residence - after all, it would be inconvenient for Tang Hao to continue observing secretly.
