Chapter 406: Powerless Rage, I'll Show You, What About It?_1

Tang Xiao, along with a host of Titled Douluo Elders, looked at Xu Ran in shock, as a tsunami of disbelief and awe churned within their hearts.

A Titled Douluo, despite only being level 91, was considered one of the pinnacle existences across the entire Continent.

Yet such a being was directly shattered by Xu Ran's punch, turning into a sky full of blood rain, leaving no bones or remnants.

They felt this was all too absurd. Throughout their years of cultivation, they had never witnessed such a terrifying scene. Even the Great Worshipper Qian Dao Liu of the Martial Soul Hall couldn't possibly be this powerful, could he?

Even if Qian Dao Liu was a Title Douluo of the 99th Rank, the feat of obliterating another Titled Douluo with a single punch was nearly impossible.

Everyone simultaneously gulped down their saliva, trembling all over, as they looked upon Xu Ran as if he were an all-conquering demon. How were they to fight against him? If Lie Yang was blown to bits with a single punch, although they were somewhat stronger than Lie Yang, they likely couldn't withstand a single punch from Xu Ran.

Moreover, what was probably most formidable about Xu Ran wasn't his fist, but his Martial Soul, a black sword that seemed to exude an utterly ferocious aura. They had a premonition that even if they exhausted all their abilities, they couldn't contend with a single strike from Xu Ran.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Xu Ran stood in the void, holding the "Godslayer Sword," with six blood-red Soul Rings flashing beneath him. With each step he took, his aura became even mightier. After taking six whole steps, Xu Ran's momentum had reached its zenith.

That aura had achieved a demigod-like presence, surpassing the ordinary definition of a Titled Douluo.

The demigod-like presence instantly enveloped the entire Hao Tian Sect, causing all the Elders and disciples of the sect to turn pale, their bodies unable to stop trembling.

"Sect Master Tang Hao of the Hao Tian Sect is a sinner. In his pursuit of strength, he has resorted to despicable means, even poisoning his wife with the help of the Martial Soul Hall. He has been executed now. Does anyone have any objections?" Xu Ran spoke indifferently as a terrifying beam of sword light shot out from the "Godslayer Sword" and slashed towards a mountain peak opposite the Hao Tian Sect. A thunderous noise followed, and a chasm was cleaved open, splitting a thousand-foot-high mountain into two.

This scene left everyone dumbfounded.

The oppressive threat of death hanging over them left them speechless.

"Lord Xu Ran has done our Hao Tian Sect a great service by eliminating the sinner Tang Hao."

"In the coming days, I will announce the crimes of Tang Hao to the whole sect..."

It was a while before the Second Elder of the Hao Tian Sect spoke up. By that time, the Great Elder had long passed away, leaving the Second Elder as the highest-ranking Elder.

"Yes, indeed."

"Lord Xu Ran is the benefactor of our Hao Tian Sect. If not for Lord Xu Ran, how could we have known of Tang Hao's vile nature?"

"The so-called Hao Tian Douluo is merely the disgrace of our Hao Tian Sect. Tang Hao is a despicable person; he pales in comparison to Lord Xu Ran."

The other Elders also chimed in agreement.

They knew that Xu Ran's power far surpassed their own. To oppose Xu Ran would mean that the Hao Tian Sect could be destroyed.

The Hao Tian Sect had already suffered a serious attack from the Martial Soul Hall ten years prior, with grave losses. Now that another Elder had died, if they were to anger Xu Ran, the Hao Tian Sect could be truly doomed.

If they sustained any significant damage, the Martial Soul Hall would take the opportunity to launch a fatal assault against the Hao Tian Sect.

"Sect Master, you must give Lord Xu Ran a proper reception. I have some important matters to attend to at the Elders' Hall."

"Me too, my spouse hasn't had her fill yet, I need to go home and feed her."

"..."

The group of Elders dared not stay any longer, fleeing in a frenzy.

Xu Ran, witnessing this, did not make another move against the Hao Tian Sect.

Now, even if he were to annihilate the Hao Tian Sect, it would pose no problem, for his power had already surpassed all present. However, if the Hao Tian Sect were gone now, the Martial Soul Hall's plan to assault the Continent as a whole might be expedited, leaving him no peace.

He just wanted to live peacefully, pick up girls, and be a layabout, occasionally beating up Tang San for some fun.

Most importantly, once a war was triggered, Bi Bidong's temperament and everything else could undergo drastic changes; war is particularly conducive to the nourishment of the Rakshasa Attribute. Xu Ran didn't want Bi Bidong to become the Rakshasa God at the moment; after all, he hadn't planned on letting Bi Bidong off in the future...

"Tang Xiao, it looks like it's just you left," Xu Ran turned to Tang Xiao, who was looking at Xu Ran with immense fear, still not recovered from the shock of the previous scene.

He couldn't comprehend why Xu Ran was so powerful. Since the Hao Tian Sect had been in seclusion for many years, Tang Xiao naturally did not recognize Xu Ran.

"Lord, you're amazing."

Seeing Xu Ran effortlessly obliterate a Titled Douluo and render the entire Hao Tian Sect so frightened they lost all will to fight, Lan'er was radiantly happy, clinging tightly to Xu Ran. She adored such a powerful man. Whether it was in terms of strength or in other aspects, Xu Ran was incredibly powerful.

Moreover, Lord Xu Ran could even transform into an Auspicious Beast, his tens of meters of colossal body was outrageously huge at that time.

She could also take on her Soul Beast Form, blossoming and sprouting grass all over the ground, coiling around Xu Ran, pressing tightly against him.

Xu Ran smiled at the woman in his arms and then looked towards Tang Xiao.

"You and your brother Tang Hao are the same, just a piece of trash," Xu Ran burst forth in his figure before Tang Xiao could react and kicked him flying with a foot. Then Xu Ran pressed down, holding the beauty in his arms as he came to Tang Xiao's side.

"Xu Ran, you..." Tang Xiao's eyes were full of furious light, his fists clenched tight, ready to fight Xu Ran to the end, but in the next moment, Xu Ran's foot stepped on his hand, a tremendous pressure crushing down on him.

"So, this is the Sect Master of Hao Tian Sect, Howling Sky Douluo? Not so impressive after all," Xu Ran said with disdain. He just liked the feeling of watching others yearning to fight him yet powerless to do so, that sense of frustration must feel very comfortable, right?

"Tang Xiao, from now on, I have nothing to do with your Tang family. Don't bother me in the future, or don't blame me for not being polite. Now just seeing someone with the surname Tang makes me sick," Ah Yin said, her eyes filled with disgust.

"Did you hear that clearly, Tang Xiao?" Xu Ran revealed a harmless smile. Why were they always complaining to him, Xu Ran, about his wife?

Well, it's because he had stolen her, after all.

But then again, men are all like that.

Fond of their own children, fancying other men's wives.

Could you blame him?

"Xu Ran, if you have the guts, kill me now. Otherwise, I will never give up. I will take Ah Yin back," Tang Xiao roared angrily, feeling an intense frustration in his heart. He had no words to say being mocked by Xu Ran, who was stronger than him. But Ah Yin's behavior deeply wounded him; had there been even a sliver of nostalgia in Ah Yin, he would have died without regrets.

But...

Why did Ah Yin favor Xu Ran? Could it be that Xu Ran had placed some spell on her? Yes, that must be it!

"Killing you... that's not really a problem."

"It's just that it's too early now. If you all died, what would I play with? Your little nephew, Tang San, is not yet dead; your grandfather, Tang Chen, is not yet dead; how can you die so quickly?"

"Grandfather? Where is my grandfather now?" Tang Xiao's heart tightened at Xu Ran's words. Tang Chen had gone to Slaughter City long ago and had become the King of Slaughter, but everyone in Hao Tian Sect thought he had already died.

"That's a secret. Just wait until it's appropriate for me to bring his head to you, then you'll know. Haha..."

He, Xu Ran, either doesn't strike, or when he does, he crushes three generations in one blow! It's a pity that Tang Hao and their father are already dead, otherwise he would have crushed four generations together.

"My lord, can we leave quickly, please? I want to give myself to my lord as soon as possible," Lan'er said, twisting her enticing figure and speaking in a seductive tone, clearly a beauty. After witnessing Xu Ran's divine might, her heart couldn't stop trembling.

"Alright, can't you wait?" Xu Ran teased, looking at her long, straight, beautiful legs, which for some reason were trembling slightly as if enduring something.

"Xu Ran, if you dare to lay a hand on Ah Yin, I will never let you go. Ahhhh..." Jealousy turned Tang Xiao's eyes blood red, he longed to kill Xu Ran on the spot.

Even he had never touched Ah Yin.

Tang San had died, and Ah Yin was supposed to be his possession. Xu Ran, you're dead!

Now his mind was full of what Ah Yin had said, and one could imagine what vulgar acts might happen between Xu Ran and Ah Yin if they left the Hao Tian Sect together.

Ahhhh, his Ah Yin.

"Not let me go? Is that so?" Xu Ran pulled Ah Yin into his embrace, his hands wandering unabashedly over her smooth jade back and plump buttocks, while he looked at Tang Xiao with contempt, another so-called tough guy.

"You're so naughty, my lord," Ah Yin flushed, nuzzling into Xu Ran's chest, but her ready-for-the-picking demeanor only added a few extra layers of allure.

Xu Ran almost couldn't hold back.

Man, this was too provocative.

"Xu Ran, you bastard, I'll fight you..." Before Tang Xiao could finish his sentence, Xu Ran kicked him away. Aside from the gods, there's nobody else he fears.

"You'd better boost your 'Cultivation Level' before you talk tough. Otherwise, you'll just become a laughingstock. Powerless fury is so pitifully laughable." Having said that, Xu Ran transformed into a streak of black light and fled towards the distance, needing to find a secluded grove to vent his fires.

"Xu Ran, you beast, I'm going to kill you!"

Tang Xiao knelt on the ground, his fists pounding the floor forcefully; when had he, the Sect Master of Hao Tian Sect, ever been humiliated like this?

He was ridiculed by Xu Ran so, Xu Ran even flirted with Ah Yin in front of him, showcasing their affection while grinding his dignity into the ground. It was too much bullying!

Thinking of Xu Ran running away with Ah Yin, envisioning what might befall her, he raged to the point of madness.

He had thought that with Tang Hao's death he could have Ah Yin all to himself. Now it had all come to nothing, and he had watched as his own brother was murdered before his eyes.
