Douluo: Master Yao Chen

Chapter 6: Destroy your martial spirit and become an ordinary person

It was getting late and the dew was heavy. A dark cloud came from somewhere, blocking the moonlight. For a moment, the whole earth was dark.

A slightly hunched but strong and tall figure stood quietly and silently on the roof.

He was dressed in tattered clothes, had messy hair and an untidy beard, looking unkempt. He was the only blacksmith in Holy Soul Village, Tang Hao.

The household under his feet was old Jack's family.

Tang Hao looked indifferently at the dark room below. With his strength, he was already able to see in the dark, and any movement within a hundred meters around him could not escape his ears.

In the room below, there were two breaths, one clear and powerful, the other long and weak, which were exactly the characteristics of an old man and a young man.

Following one of the breathing sounds, Tang Hao's figure appeared like a nimble black panther, nimbly landing on Tang Yin's window, flipped over and entered, stood at the head of his bed, silently watching the child who was sleeping soundly on the bed.

He has been drinking for many years, and his daily routine is either buying alcohol or doing ironwork at home. This is the first time he has seen the grandson whom old Jack treats as his treasure, but it must be said that old Jack, an old man living alone, has raised this child very well.

She has red lips, white teeth, and a cute face. She is totally unlike the dirty kids in the village who play all day long.

Even though Tang Hao's heart was as still as dead water, he suddenly felt a sense of emotion when he saw it. It was a pity that Tang San looked like him. If he had any of Ah Yin's appearance, he wouldn't be so ordinary.

However, this feeling was fleeting. He had only one purpose for coming here, which was to see the little kid with half-level innate spirit power that Tang San mentioned.

He had heard from Tang San at home that there was only one place for a work-study student to enter the Notting Soul Master Academy, but everyone thought that Old Jack would give this place to his grandson Tang Yin, although this was indeed the case.

But Tang San has a rare pair of martial spirits that appear once in a century, and they are also the only bloodline between him and Ah Yin.

He is now a useless man, but he must avenge Ah Yin and the bullying and humiliation inflicted by the Spirit Hall on his Haotian Sect. The hope of revenge lies with Tang San. He will not allow anyone to become a stumbling block on Tang San's growth.

Especially in the Soul Master Academy in Notting City, there is an opportunity for him and the Spirit Hall to maintain a superficial balance.

But this is old Jack's grandson after all. Tang Hao is well aware that old Jack is willing to provide him and his son with a place to stay in the Holy Soul Village, and he will never harm the life of this little kid.

Thinking of this, he stretched out his right hand with thick joints and calluses and placed it on Tang Yin's forehead. A tiny amount of soul power in his hand flowed into Tang Yin's body.

Then, Tang Hao frowned his wrinkled forehead, his cloudy pupils revealed a sharp edge, and he looked at Tang Yin again with a scrutinizing gaze.

Strange, this kid doesn't even have a single bit of soul power in his body? !
Could it be that the people in the Spirit Hall are so useless that they can even test the innate spirit power of a little kid wrong? !
Tang Hao pondered over and over again, but ultimately came to this conclusion.

For a moment, Tang Hao's gaze towards Tang Yin hesitated, but was eventually replaced by a hint of determination.

The matter is of great importance, so it is better to miss it than to let it go. Anyway, this kid has no soul power in his body and is destined to never become a soul master. So what difference does it make whether his martial soul is destroyed or not.

And even if he had soul power, with his half-level innate soul power and as a commoner, he might not be able to break through to level ten in his lifetime. It would be better for him to be an ordinary person and take care of old Jack until his death.

Tang Hao had already seen through the mediocre future of this child, so he no longer hesitated. He grabbed the sleeping Tang Yin and left through the window, heading straight into the dark night.

He moved swiftly and his body shape changed. In just a few breaths, he left the Holy Soul Village and arrived at a nearby hill.

Looking at the baby with a rosy face sleeping in his arms, Tang Hao's soul power surged, and he raised his right hand and dropped it towards the baby's forehead.

He had arranged everything and prepared in advance the corpse of a demon ape soul beast. This soul beast loved to eat children. It often broke into the village to kidnap children, tortured them to death, and then ate them.

He would fake the scene to make it look like Tang Yin was taken away by the demon ape, and then rescued by a passing powerful spirit master. However, due to an accident, Tang Yin's spirit had problems, but his life was not in danger. Just as Tang Hao's palm was about to touch Tang Yin, an invisible force spread from Tang Yin's chest, turning into a huge impact force that suddenly spread outward, hitting Tang Hao's body hard, and instantly knocking him back dozens of meters.

At the moment Tang Hao flew backwards, a pitch-black hammer as big as him instantly appeared in his hand, and several colorful and gorgeous rings bloomed behind him, yellow, purple, black, black, and red, a total of nine.

Relying on the focus of the Clear Sky Hammer, Tang Hao successfully stopped his body. The moment the hammer fell to the ground, the ground collapsed, and an invisible pressure as sticky as a swamp spread.

"who?!"

Tang Hao held the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand, his soul power surging throughout his body, his eyes bloodshot, and looked vigilantly at Tang Yin, who was floating in the air in front of him and shrouded in a layer of soft white light. He had completely changed his previous image of a depressed drunkard, and the murderous intent in his body seemed to have condensed into a physical entity, turning into bright red and wandering around his body.

This is a sign that the God of Death's Domain is about to open.

It’s no wonder that Tang Hao was so alert. Just from that attack just now, he felt that the power contained in it was no less than that of a Titled Douluo.

Could it be a hidden trick of the Spirit Hall? !

As soon as this thought popped up in his mind, Tang Hao felt that the murderous intent in his heart was difficult to control, and the God of Killing domain showed signs of going out of control.

“To be honest, sometimes I really can’t understand you.”

Just when Tang Hao's murderous intent was about to turn into a tide and pour out, a helpless voice slowly sounded, and under Tang Hao's incredulous gaze, an illusory white figure took the initiative to reveal its figure.

"Attracting murderous and evil spirits into the body is indeed a way to increase strength, but it is very easy to lose control and even affect one's own mind and go to extremes."

"There is nothing wrong with pursuing power, but going astray and not caring about gains and losses is hopelessly stupid."

Tang Hao tightly grasped the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand, "Sir, who are you and what is your intention in staying by that kid's side?!"

He wanted to destroy Tang Yin's martial soul, but he had absolutely no intention to kill him. He felt that with Tang Yin by his side, he would be much safer than that guy who was neither human nor ghost.

Yao Chen looked indifferent, "I don't even bother to say my name, and you don't deserve to hear it!"

After he finished speaking, Yao Chen clenched his right hand towards Tang Hao in the air. Tang Hao suddenly felt that the space around him turned into shackles, imprisoning his whole body and suppressing his soul power with an absolutely powerful posture.

The soul power that he originally commanded with ease did not respond even to his mobilization. Instead, the pressure around him continued to tighten, making him feel difficulty breathing and his mind began to blur.

His brain began to work frantically, trying to search his memory for this person's origins. Even though he had a chronic illness and was not as strong as before, he was definitely not comparable to an ordinary Titled Douluo. As a result, he was suppressed in an instant.

Unfortunately, his thoughts were fruitless, and his vision became increasingly dim. In a trance, he only heard a sentence:

"I have always looked down upon your current behavior, and now it is even more disgusting. For the sake of our old friend, I will spare your life."

"Old friend?!"

Whose old friend?!
With this doubt, Tang Hao's consciousness fell into endless darkness.

"Humph, if you want to be a coward, why not be a coward to the end? Why do you have to create trouble?"

Looking at the unconscious Tang Hao, Yao Chen flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly. With a wave of his hand, he turned into a stream of light and flew quickly towards the depths of the forest with Tang Yin.
