"Golden eyes? What is this?"
"Soul Skill!? No, this aura... Limit Douluo?"
Looking at the golden eyes that suddenly appeared in the night sky behind Tang Chuan, Tang Hao's expression changed abruptly. His thoughts raced, and then he said in disbelief.
From these cold golden pupils, he felt an extremely terrifying aura that made his Soul tremble!
Tang Hao had only ever felt this level of pressure from three people in his life.
His grandfather, Tang Chen, known as the invincible on land; Bo Saixi, the High Priestess of Sea God Island; and Qian Daoliu, the Angel Douluo of Spirit Hall!
At this moment, Tang Hao's mind instantly became clear.
He knew that if he were to truly smash down with his hammer without restraint, the mysterious entity that had not yet fully manifested behind Tang Chuan would surely intervene forcefully!
At that time, he would definitely either die or be severely injured!
After weighing the pros and cons, Tang Hao's wrist made an extremely delicate flick and lift, abruptly stopping his offensive. The Clear Sky Hammer, which carried the power to destroy the Heavens and Earth, immediately changed from smashing forward to hanging backward.
Using this reverse immense force, his body also rapidly retreated as if pulled by an invisible rope, instantly creating a distance of nearly a hundred meters between him and Tang Chuan!
At the same time, Qian Renxue, Snake Lance Douluo, and Porcupinefish Douluo, who were not far away, also clearly saw the pair of golden eyes that suddenly appeared in the night sky.
And the faintly discernible, immeasurably massive silhouette of a dark Dragon in the dark clouds!
At this moment, the three of them instantly turned pale, their pupils constricting violently, as if they had seen the most incredible sight in the World. A shiver from the depths of their Souls almost suffocated them!
"Seventh Soul Skill, Snake Lance True Body!"
"Seventh Soul Skill, Porcupinefish True Body!"
Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo reacted extremely quickly. Their black seventh spirit rings lit up simultaneously, and they instantly completed their Martial Soul possession almost instinctively!
In an instant, a giant two-headed green snake and a monstrous pufferfish illusion, swollen like a mountain, suddenly appeared. The two Titled Douluo unhesitatingly pushed their Martial Soul True Bodies to the limit, firmly protecting Qian Renxue behind them, as if facing a formidable enemy, cold sweat pouring down their foreheads.
Looking at Qian Renxue and Tang Hao's horrified expressions, as if they had seen a ghost, Tang Chuan also realized something and suddenly turned his head to look at the night sky behind him.
However, the moment he turned his head, the surging dark clouds gently rippled.
The pair of unsettling golden giant eyes and the terrifying pressure they contained had silently disappeared, as if everything just now was merely everyone's hallucination.
The night sky returned to silence and darkness.
After all, Di Tian was a Soul Beast. Now that he had secretly infiltrated the human World, he would certainly not easily reveal himself unless absolutely necessary.
His biggest purpose in appearing just now was to intimidate Tang Hao!
In his opinion, Tang Chuan possessed the Bloodline of the Soul Beast race, had extraordinary talent, and had an unusual relationship with the Auspicious Beast, making him highly valuable for investment!
He was also the only hope of bringing the Auspicious Beast back to the Star Dou Great Forest.
When Tang Chuan turned his head back again, he found that Tang Hao's figure had long since disappeared without a trace. He then pouted and muttered in a somewhat speechless low voice:
"This old fellow sure runs fast."
"It's just... what exactly did he see just now to make him act as if he'd seen a ghost?"
As he spoke, he retracted his Martial Soul into his body and walked towards Qian Renxue's location.
"What did you all... see just now? Why do you all have such expressions?"
Looking at Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo, who were guarding Qian Renxue as if facing a formidable enemy, Tang Chuan slowly stopped and asked with a hint of doubt.
At this moment, Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo were still staring intently at Tang Chuan.
Especially the space behind him; their bodies dared not move half a step, fearing that the terrifying golden eyes would appear again.
"It's nothing, move aside. Let him come over."
Qian Renxue took a deep breath and let out a low cry. She forcibly suppressed the surging waves in her heart, gently waved her hand, and gestured with her eyes for the two Elders to move aside.
Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo exchanged glances, then very cautiously and slowly moved to the side, creating a path, but their Soul Power remained in a ready state.
Tang Chuan walked up to Qian Renxue, waiting for her answer.
"Just now, in the night sky behind you, a pair of enormous golden eyes suddenly appeared. And in those dark clouds, there seemed to be a black Dragon phantom coiled, its specific size impossible to discern," Qian Renxue said, her red lips parting after a moment of silence, looking at Tang Chuan with a complex gaze.
"What did you say? A black Dragon with golden eyes?"
Upon hearing this, the relaxed expression on Tang Chuan's face instantly froze. He subconsciously turned his head sharply again to look at the empty night sky behind him, then turned back, his voice hoarse with disbelief, "Golden-eyed black Dragon? Are you... sure you didn't see wrong?"
Qian Renxue keenly caught the fleeting look of fear and solemnity on Tang Chuan's face, which was definitely not feigned. Immediately, her brows furrowed, and she pressed, "What? Judging by your reaction... you know the origin of that big fellow?"
Tang Chuan did not immediately answer her question, and he even uncharacteristically did not pretend to inquire about the identities of Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo, the two Titled Douluo who had suddenly appeared.
His eyes seemed to wander as he rapidly thought about something. Then he waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "If there's nothing else, I'll head back to the Academy first."
As he spoke, his gaze swept over Qian Renxue and the two vigilant Spirit Hall Elders beside her. At the same time, he looked up at the night sky, which had returned to calm but appeared even more profound.
"If you have nothing else... you should also hurry back to the Crown Princes Mansion."
"I have a feeling... the days ahead might not be peaceful."
After speaking, without waiting for Qian Renxue to say anything more, Tang Chuan's figure flickered, turning into a blurry afterimage. He pushed his speed to the limit and swiftly flew towards Tianxing Academy without looking back.
Watching Tang Chuan's figure gradually disappear into the night sky, She Long, the Snake Lance Douluo, flashed a stern look on his face. He stepped forward and lowered his voice, "Young Lord? He... he's actually Tang Hao's son! Should we..."
As he spoke, he made a subtle throat-slitting gesture, his meaning self-evident.
However, before he could finish his sentence, Qian Renxue raised her hand to interrupt him.
Qian Renxue's gaze was still fixed on the direction where Tang Chuan had disappeared. Her eyes were deep, and her tone carried an undeniable chill, "Are you crazy? Didn't you see the golden eyes that suddenly appeared behind him just now? That terrifying aura, I've only ever felt it from my grandfather."
Porcupinefish Douluo, who was beside her, couldn't help but interject, "Young Lord, do you mean... those golden eyes just now were... Tang Chen?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue looked speechless. Before she could speak, She Long, the Snake Lance Douluo, glared at Porcupinefish in annoyance and growled, "Porcupinefish, are you an idiot! Tang Chen's Martial Soul is the Clear Sky Hammer. When did it become a black Dragon?"
"If that person truly was Tang Chen just now, why would Tang Hao run when he saw his own grandfather? Wouldn't he immediately kneel and kowtow?"
Porcupinefish Douluo shrank his neck, realizing his mistake. He then said sheepishly, "Uh... you're right, I was confused."
Just then, Qian Renxue suddenly spoke, her tone carrying an irresistible authority, "Since we already know Tang Chuan is Tang Hao's son, with that woman's methods, she has likely already found out as well."
At this point, her gaze sharply turned to Snake Lance Douluo beside her, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes, giving off a domineering aura of protecting her husband.
"Uncle She Long, please set off immediately and return to Spirit City. Personally tell my grandfather that I will handle all matters concerning Tang Chuan and Tang Hao here in Heaven Dou City."
"Tell him to rein in that woman and not let her send people to interfere without authorization."
"Otherwise, whoever comes, I will kill them!"
