"Xiao Hao, what on earth is going on?" Tang Xiao's face was dark as he looked at Tang Hao. He hadn't thought in that direction before, but these days Tang Hao had always seemed off, towards Ah Yin he seemed to be...
Could it really be Xiao Hao who harmed her? But how could that be possible?
Wasn't it because the people from Martial Soul Hall chased him and Ah Yin, resulting in Ah Yin sacrificing herself to death?
"Big brother, I…" Tang Hao, ashamed, looked at Tang Xiao. At this moment, his heart was being sliced by knives.
He would rather die than witness this scene.
Once it came out, he would be abandoned by everyone, even though he's already in a terrible state, no one would sympathize with him.
"Xu Ran, what are you doing here at Hao Tian Clan? Since when is Hao Tian Clan a place you can come and go as you please?" Tang Hao, not daring to look into Tang Xiao's eyes, turned his angry gaze towards Xu Ran.
Xu Ran, this son of a bitch, can't you just let him go?
Xu Ran had to keep harping on this matter, forcing him, Tang Hao, to be abandoned by all and cursed by thousands, didn't he?
Tang Hao's eyes became incredibly cold and resentful as he glared at Xu Ran.
It was obvious why Xu Ran came to Hao Tian Clan.
They, the Hao Tian Clan, had nothing to do with Xu Ran. Xu Ran's visit to Hao Tian Clan was plainly to target him.
Damn!
Tang Hao couldn't help but curse in his heart, feeling utterly hopeless.
Xu Ran made him a cripple, wasn't that enough?
"Hao Tian Clan? It indeed is a place I can come and go as I please," Xu Ran said with disdain. What was Hao Tian Clan to him? Let alone being the number one clan in the world, even the Martial Soul Hall held no regard in his eyes.
With his current strength, even without using his soul beast body, his human form far surpassed the limits of a Soul Master. He didn't even care about a Title Douluo of the 99th Rank, let alone Hao Tian Clan?
Tang Xiao was only a Title Douluo of the 96th Rank, after all.
"As for why I've returned to Hao Tian Clan, naturally it's for Hao Tian Douluo. Striking one's own wife and repeatedly exploiting one's deceased wife to fabricate your image of a loving man, what a 'loving' Hao Tian Douluo. Truly a 'loving' man," Xu Ran said with a tsking sound, leaving Tang Hao feeling humiliated and breathless, his face flushing with intense shame.
"Puh."
A mouthful of blood spewed from the corner of Tang Hao's mouth as his emotions reached a boiling point, unable to hold back any longer.
"Xu Ran, don't slander me," Tang Hao pointed at Xu Ran. How could he possibly admit to Xu Ran's accusations? Unless Xu Ran could produce absolute proof, he would never admit to it.
"Slander you, me slandering you? That's probably the most laughable thing I've heard," Xu Ran said with a chilling gaze, slapping Tang Hao across the face with his hand through the air, then darting forward, stepping on Tang Hao's chest with one foot pressing down hard.
"Ah!" Tang Hao screamed in agony, severe pain radiating from his chest as all his ribs collapsed. His eyes were filled with ruthless killing intent, and blood oozed from his mouth, nose, and eyes, creating a terrifying sight.
"Xu Ran, if you have the guts, just kill me. Stop torturing me," Tang Hao yelled, the various Sword Intents from Xu Ran invading his body, the Sword Qi continuously slicing his body, causing him to howl in pain incessantly.
The physical pain on his body was painful for Tang Hao, but it brought some relief.
In his situation, only the pain in his body could alleviate the torment in his heart.
If possible, he even wished the pain was deeper.
"Wish to die?"
"Right, Tang Hao, I can now tell you some good news. Do you want to hear it?"
"What good news?" Tang Hao looked at Xu Ran with a cold gaze, a sense of ominous premonition in his heart. The 'good news' from Xu Ran's mouth, how could it possibly be good news? It must be a scheme targeting him, Tang Hao.
Or perhaps it was his precious son, Tang San, who had been humiliated by Xu Ran again?
Xu Ran was so despicable and shameless; there was nothing he couldn't do.
"It's about Ah Yin," Xu Ran said loudly.
Tang Xiao, who had initially seen Xu Ran make a move against Tang Hao and was preparing to unleash his Martial Soul to attack Xu Ran, also calmed down upon hearing Ah Yin's name.
Ah Yin had an unparalleled status in his heart, perhaps even higher than Tang Hao's.
"What?" Tang Hao's pupils constricted, hearing the name of his once wife, his first reaction was fear.
Ah Yin was beautiful, and he loved her dearly.
But now he was afraid of hearing Ah Yin's name. Because it was he who had killed Ah Yin; he was guilty, he was nothing. Whenever he heard Ah Yin's name, it reminded him of his sins, how despicably and shamelessly he had acted.
He did not deserve to be human.
"Ah Yin has been resurrected, and she's in my hands. And now she doesn't go by the name Ah Yin anymore, she has a new name, a new identity, a new body, and everything else... And most importantly, she loves me very much..." Xu Ran said softly, his eyes becoming incredibly evil. Now Lan'er is Ah Yin, but from now on she has to say goodbye to her past life.
Her body contains my blood, Xu Ran's, and is just as wicked as me.
Originally, he thought that with her being alive, dealing with Tang San wouldn't be so smooth. It seemed everything was an overthought on his part. She herself wanted to strike and kill Tang San; what did Xu Ran need to care for?
"What did you say?" Tang Hao's pupils dilated, his mouth agape, somewhat in disbelief.
It was as if a bolt from the blue had struck him hard.
"Ah Yin has been resurrected, Ah Yin has been resurrected..." These five words incessantly echoed in his mind. His heart was filled with a death wish, he was afraid, he dared not meet Ah Yin, he was unworthy of her.
He had killed Ah Yin; how could he face her now?
And now Ah Yin also knew, knew that it was he who had killed her.
"Ah Yin, where is Ah Yin? Where did you take Ah Yin?" Tang Hao roared angrily, staring intensely at Xu Ran, his eyes full of bloodshot. Looking at Xu Ran's contemptuous gaze, he twisted his body vigorously, trying to break free from under Xu Ran's feet.
Ah Yin was his wife, even if he had done her wrong. He didn't want anyone else to touch Ah Yin. If Ah Yin fell into Xu Ran's hands, then even his dignity would be trampled ruthlessly by Xu Ran. At that time, even in hell, he would struggle to find peace.
"Tang Hao, long time no see."
A clear and pleasant voice appeared in the sky, a beautiful woman clad in a blue-gold long dress, with a veil that made it impossible to see her true face. But that ethereal and noble aura, the delicate and curvaceous figure, the natural fall of her blue hair like fine blue brocade, all highlighted her beauty.
Seeing the newcomer, Tang Hao's heart was filled with despair and fear.
Whereas Tang Xiao was extremely excited, adoration and an unspeakable possessive desire filled his eyes. He had not expected Ah Yin to be able to come back to life. Since Ah Yin was alive, he could not give up on her. This time, Ah Yin belonged to him, and he must have her, at any cost.
However, soon after, Ah Yin landed next to Xu Ran, leaning into his embrace.
Xu Ran was unreserved, his hands openly roaming her body, finally resting on her plump and round buttocks, squeezing them forcefully.
