--- Chapter 92 ---
Zzt!
A purple-silver and deep green light cut through the horizon. These lights are Han Yuan and Dugu Bo, who left Dao Academy and went to Fasinou Province.
Dugu Bo couldn't help but wonder about something on the way.
'So, where are we going exactly?' asked Dugu Bo with his spiritual power while they were flying.
Han Yuan stared far ahead, 'Nouding City.'
'Tang Hao is currently staying there to protect his son.'
'Son? So, he did it with the Blue Silver Emperor, huh?' Dugu Bo couldn't help but smile. 'Wait, his son is around your age then, Young Master?'
Han Yuan snorted, 'Unfortunately, yes.'
Dugu Bo detected a hint of dislike in Han Yuan's voice and was actually curious about why Tang Hao's son irked him so much. However, he was smart enough to keep his mouth tight. Sometimes, knowing less would make your life easier.
Thankfully, he was mindful.
To Han Yuan, Tang San is nothing but a filthy thief. Tang San had stolen the one thing Han Yuan had been waiting for god-know how long. The void is timeless, and the amount of expectation Han Yuan had before it went to shit turned his hope into unrelenting anger.
Even though Han Yuan looks relaxed and composed all day, the flame of vengeance burns inside his soul. Yes, the sheer hatred in his heart makes him want to make Asura and Tang San suffer for eternity.
Swoosh!
Then, Han Yuan and Dugu Bo sped up more. They arrived at the junction of Nouding City and Soutou City, consuming Star Concealing Pills to hide their presence.
Dugu Bo stretched his neck comfortably and asked, "Are we going to look for the Blue Silver Emperor or fight Tang Hao first?"
"You're going for Tang Hao. I will be looking for the Blue Silver Emperor myself." Han Yuan replied calmly, though Dugu Bo could see the visible excitement on his face.
"Also, if you sensed a transformed 100,000-year-old spirit beast, don't go for it. Leave that matter to me."
Dugu Bo's eyes widened, "There is a transformed 100,000-year-old spirit beast in the Nouding City? Well, I'd be damned!"
"Yes, it's a 100,000-year-old Soft Boned Rabbit. Unfortunately, neither of you and I have any use for her spirit ring. Erlong could use the spirit ring as for her ninth spirit ring, but the attribute is incompatible." Han Yuan commented in amusement.
"I was thinking of keeping the transformed spirit beast as a pet. The value of a 'living' 100,000-year-old spirit beast is much more priceless than you think because of the research I dabbled in recently, whether it was the spirit beast's blood, possibly an artificial spirit ring, or Spirit Soul."
"In fact, she might be the key to the God Slayer Project, Senior. If we can catch the transformed 100,000-year-old spirit beast, I can speed up my research on Spirit Rings Stripping and Aging."
Dugu Bo's eyes lit up, "Then, please catch her, Young Master. Don't worry about Tang Hao. I will keep him busy as long as you want!"
"If possible, kill him." Han Yuan coldly said. After what happened that day, he didn't have much hope for that brainless guy. It's better to end Tang Hao for good than to keep him around.
"This..." Dugu Bo was speechless.
Then, he quickly steeled his resolve and answered, "I will do my best!"
Although Han Yuan ordered this, he doubted Dugu Bo could kill Tang Hao with Asura's protection on his inheritor. Tang Hao is Asura's watchdog for Tang San, which means he wouldn't die that easily.
Above all else, Tang Hao owned Death God's Domain, which was Asura's niche backdoor for descending to the lower world. Thankfully, the God of Destruction would cover that matter.
Want to descend to Douluo Continent, Asura?
Hehehe, It's Not That Easy!
Han Yuan and Dugu Bo continued their journey to the Nouding City, and the Poison Douluo immediately sensed a heavy, strong presence in this city.
"Heh, Tang Hao probably didn't think someone would come after him. His presence concealing is sloppy, probably thinking no one in the city could detect his presence." Dugu Bo chuckled while sharing his findings with Han Yuan.
Hearing Dugu Bo's new discovery, Han Yuan chuckled and pointed at the distant mountain, "Sloppy, huh? That sounds about right. Anyway, all you need to do is catch Tang Hao's attention. That peak was close to Nouding City, and a little presence of Title Douluo should be enough to alarm the hammer guy."
"He wouldn't let a random Title Douluo, hostile or not, away knowing his son and a transformed 100,000-year-old spirit beast is here."
"He couldn't take any chances."
"Mad dog it is..." Dugu Bo mumbled to himself.
"So, I assume the location of the Blue Silver Emperor was in the opposite location?"
Han Yuan nodded, seeing the faraway mountain range. "Even from here, I can see a special presence of the Blue Silver Emperor, the supposed ruler of all Blue Silver Grass."
"It's weak, though."
"The Blue Silver Emperor's presence was no different than dying..."
'Damn it, Tang Hao! You're really making Ah Yin's life more miserable than it is!' Han Yuan angrily roared in his heart.
Han Yuan gritted his teeth and calmed himself down, "Senior, let's start."
"Mm." Dugu Bo flew away, slowly revealing his Title Douluo presence.
...
...
Meanwhile, Tang Hao hid in the forest behind Nouding Academy and observed Tang San training his Tang Sect's martial techniques, never questioning where all those techniques came from.
Abruptly, Tang Hao sensed an unsettling presence and looked up with a dark expression, "Title Douluo?"
"How come a Title Douluo found its way to Nouding City? This place was too far away from any major city..."
"Has my identity been known by others?"
"No, I can't let this Title Douluo enter Nouding City. Xiao San aside, that little rabbit shouldn't enter anyone's eyes until the right time!"
With that in mind, Tang Hao vanished from the spot.
Swoosh!
"What was that?" Tang San looked back warily. He had been training the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track when he detected a faint movement behind him.
However, all he could see with his Purple Demon Eyes were squirrels and falling leaves.
"It must be my feeling, then..."
"Xiao San, Let's Play~!" A pleasant voice echoed in the forest as a girl in pink clothes arrived. She wore bunny ears and looked adorable.
Tang San smiled weakly, "Xiao Wu, I have no time for that. You know that I need to focus on cultivating."
"My teacher has been drilling me about his new theory on martial soul's quality."
"Hmph, you're such a boring guy!" Xiao Wu placed her hands on her hips, pouting her mouth in dissatisfaction.
"Fine, since you don't want to play, I'd just go alone to the city!"
She turned around and shouted, "Who needs you anyway!"
Tang San watched Xiao Wu walking away and shook his head, "What a silly girl."
"Well, back to training..." He resumed his martial arts training again.
Unknown to Tang San, he was about to lose his little rabbit by letting her play alone in the city.
...
...
Han Yuan flapped his Purple Thunderbolt Wings rapidly, accelerating and becoming a blurry figure as he used his Purple Spirit Grass and spiritual power to scan the area.
"According to that guy, the waterfall should be around here." His eyes also looked around, darting from one waterfall to another.
A few minutes later, Han Yuan finally discovered a tall cliff and a waterfall with a strong water current. "There you are."
He scanned the waterfall and cliff before finding a steep path leading into the hidden cave behind the waterfall. He let the Purple Silver Grass grow wildly on his palm before creating a barrier and slowly forcing his way through.
BOOM!
The sound of a waterfall hitting Purple Silver Grass echoed in Han Yuan's ears, but he didn't care much. This much weight is nothing to him.
Han Yuan successfully entered the hidden cave and maneuvered his way to a weak, wilting blue silver grass at the end of the cave. His expression twisted in pain and rage, "Sunlight can't even reach this place."
"Look at you, you're so weak..."
"So miserable."
"But don't worry, I'll get you out of this hell."
"Still, the most important thing is…"
"We finally met again, Mother."
