67: Unlucky Tang Hao

A certain unknown energy in the sky finally stopped above a bustling area in Nuoding City, right over a Brothel.

Tang Hao landed on a nearby rooftop.

He looked at the dark clouds in confusion; he still couldn't identify what kind of power it was.

It wasn't Soul Power, nor did it seem like the legendary Divine Power.

Why did it stop here?

Was there something special about this place?

Tang Hao faintly sensed that the energy above was brewing something and had stopped moving.

With a flash of his figure, he arrived at the roof of the Brothel.

He kicked a tile aside, revealing a small hole through which he could see the situation inside.

Inside was a pale man with his arms around women on both sides, boasting loudly.

"If you serve Lord Rost well, you'll all be rewarded!"

"But if you make Lord Rost unhappy, none of you... will have a good time!"

"Where's the wine? Give me wine!"

Rost laughed loudly while pawing at the beauties beside him.

The beauties' feigned indignation only made Rost more aggressive.

Tang Hao frowned slightly. What was this?

Why did this power come here?

Was it because of this man named Rost?

There seemed to be something special about the man, but he couldn't sense anything more specific.

"Bang...!"

Tang Hao stomped his foot, shattering the tiles as he dropped into the room.

This sudden appearance immediately stunned everyone present; for a moment, no one made a sound.

Tang Hao stepped forward and grabbed Rost by the collar.

"Everyone else, get out!"

The women screamed and ran out instantly, not daring to stay for a second.

Rost was hauled up, his feet dangling. He was instantly jolted awake by fear and stammered:

"Lord, have mercy... Lord, have mercy..."

Rost kicked his legs in terror, his expression filled with dread.

"Who are you?" Tang Hao asked. He had to figure out how this person could attract the attention of the Azure Dragon Temple.

Rost's face turned pale, and his body shook so much that he actually wet his pants.

Veins popped on Tang Hao's face from anger; he almost couldn't resist killing the man.

How could such trash be noticed by the Azure Dragon Temple?

"I... I only did some bad things, but it was all for the noble lords. I... I didn't want to do those heartless things..."

Rost wailed, though not a single tear fell.

Tang Hao was stunned for a moment before realizing that this bastard was confessing his crimes to him!

This guy was definitely not a good person!

Was the Azure Dragon Temple watching him because... Just as the thought occurred, a blinding light suddenly appeared before his eyes, followed by a powerful explosion of energy overhead... "Rumble...!!!"

A massive bolt of lightning crashed down, engulfing Tang Hao along with the target!

The powerful energy explosion sent Tang Hao's Physical Body flying; he crashed through the wall and fell outside.

Rost was even unluckier, having been blasted directly into black charcoal.

Tang Hao rolled on the ground a few times. His clothes weren't damaged, but his hair was standing on end, and his body convulsed from time to time.

He climbed up from the ground, his face completely blackened.

Although he wasn't killed thanks to his Titled Douluo Physique, this single strike had severely injured his body!

Looking at the shattered roof, the corner of his mouth twitched.

He finally understood the situation!

Damn it, the Azure Dragon Temple was punishing a villain, and he had actually moved closer just to get struck by lightning!

What kind of luck was this?!

In that split second, if he hadn't reacted in time to protect his body with Soul Power, he might have been taken out in one go.

To be buried with a piece of villainous trash—how ridiculous!

Tang Hao felt extremely stifled and furious, but he had nowhere to vent. Who could he even complain to?

Spitting out some bloody saliva, Tang Hao's figure flashed as he rushed into the air... outside the Divine Dragon Hall.

The Guard responsible for the rear saw Tang Hao return and said in surprise, "Ri Tian, where did you go? Why do you smell burnt, like you were struck by lightning?"

"..." Tang Hao's face was grim, radiating a cold aura that warned others to stay away.

He really had gone looking for a strike; his luck was absolutely abysmal!

The Guard, feeling snubbed, snorted and went back to his patrol.

Tang Hao looked at the Azure Dragon Temple with lingering fear.

No matter what, this was definitely not simple; a casual strike could leave him in such a wretched state.

If it had actually targeted him, he probably wouldn't be able to withstand the heavenly might!

Thinking this, Tang Hao couldn't help but want to go inside and look at that statue.

Just as he was about to walk over, he saw two familiar figures approaching from the distance.

It was the master and disciple pair, Yu Xiaogang and Tang San!

As the two of them approached, the commoners spontaneously cleared a path for them.

Everyone watched them with respect, their backs involuntarily bowing slightly.

Yu Xiaogang held his chin high, his calm demeanor carrying a hint of pride.

A Spirit Grandmaster still carried some weight in a place like Nuoding City.

Furthermore, the Great High Priest here was a junior from his own clan!

Tang San followed beside him, his respect for Yu Xiaogang deepening.

As expected of Teacher, he really has quite the presence!

"Bang...!"

Beside Yu Xiaogang, a purple pig-like creature suddenly appeared. It was Luo San Pao, and its silly yet cute appearance immediately caught everyone's attention.

A child couldn't help but snicker, "It's so ugly..."

A few more children joined in the laughter and began to gossip about Luo San Pao.

Yu Xiaogang's face instantly turned red; Luo San Pao was his shame!

"Get back...!"

Yu Xiaogang cursed through gritted teeth.

Luo San Pao looked at Yu Xiaogang pitifully.

It was an External Spirit with its own intelligence; aside from not being able to stay outside for long, it wasn't much different from a Spirit Beast.

It gazed at the Azure Dragon Temple, its eyes filled with intense hope.

It could vaguely sense that there was hope there to change its cruel reality!

Yu Xiaogang seemed to feel more people looking over, and anger surfaced on his face as he said in a low voice:

"What are you still standing there for?! Get! Back! Now!"

Tang San looked at Luo San Pao and said hesitantly, "Teacher, it seems like it wants to say something? But it can't express it..."

"Ignore it!" Yu Xiaogang said coldly.

Luo San Pao did not dissipate despite Yu Xiaogang's angry rebukes; instead, it knelt on all fours and shuffled toward the Divine Dragon Hall.

Everyone was shocked by the sight. From the looks of it, Luo San Pao was advancing while kneeling! It was so devout!

"So that's it! This noble gentleman is too embarrassed to kneel himself, so he's having this little creature kowtow at every step in his place!"

"How devout! If we do the same, Lord Divine Dragon will surely acknowledge us more, right?"

"I didn't expect even the big figures in the city to care so much about the Divine Lord..."

"..."

The crowd whispered among themselves while watching Yu Xiaogang and Luo San Pao.

Yu Xiaogang almost fainted from rage. What did they mean by "kneeling in his place"?

Would he, the dignified Grandmaster of Theory, bow down to a statue?

This bastard Luo San Pao should be humanely destroyed!

Yu Xiaogang's face was flushed with anger, and a killing intent surged within him.
