Chapter 97 Tang Chen's Wrath
Killing Town, Tavern.
Tang Chen stood in mid-air, swung the Clear Sky Hammer, and smashed it down.
With a loud bang, the entire tavern collapsed instantly.
The entrance to the City of Slaughter was revealed.
Tang Chen entered the City of Slaughter with a calm expression.
The passageway was deep and long.
Before long, a hundred black-armored knights swarmed out, attempting to block Tang Chen's path.
The captain shouted coldly, "You have disobeyed..."
However, Tang Chen was not a good-tempered person. He didn't listen to what the other party had to say, and he was too lazy to waste his breath on these small fry.
Tang Chen's eyes darkened, and he made a fist with his right hand as the Clear Sky Hammer Spirit suddenly condensed in his palm.
Immediately afterward, the Clear Sky Hammer transformed into a giant hammer the size of a small mountain, and with overwhelming force, it smashed down on the group of black-armored knights.
Boom—!!!
Just one strike.
The hundred black-armored knights didn't even have time to scream before they all perished.
The entire tunnel cracked instantly under this attack.
Although the City of Slaughter prohibited the use of soul rings and soul skills, Tang Chen was a level 99 Peerless Douluo, a being who stood at the pinnacle of the world.
Furthermore, he was the creator of many of the unique skills of the Clear Sky Sect.
The Clear Sky Ultimate Technique did not rely on soul rings at all.
The strongest among those black-armored knights was only a Soul Douluo, so they naturally had no power to resist Tang Chen.
Soon, Tang Chen stepped into the inner city.
His powerful spiritual energy spread out in all directions like a tide, instantly enveloping the entire inner city.
However, a moment later, Tang Chen's brows furrowed even more tightly.
Given his spiritual strength, he should have been able to sense Tang Hao as long as he was still in this city.
But now, he couldn't even detect a trace of Tang Hao's presence.
A bad premonition suddenly rose in Tang Chen's heart, and that premonition grew stronger and stronger.
Had something really happened to Hao'er?
Just then, an angry shout rang out: "Who dares to act so presumptuously in this capital of slaughter?!"
The next moment, a streak of blood-red light flew in from afar.
The newcomer exuded a strong aura of blood, and nine soul rings surrounded his feet.
He was now the King of Slaughter, Blood Wolf.
Blood Wolf hovered opposite Tang Chen and roared in a deep voice:
"You have trespassed into the City of Slaughter and slaughtered my enforcers. Do you not take me seriously?"
Tang Chen did not reply, but looked at Blood Wolf with a calm gaze.
That look in his eyes was like looking at a dead person.
Blood Wolf felt a sudden tightness in his heart when Tang Chen stared at him like that.
Apart from Su Mo, no one else could make him feel so uneasy with just a glance.
"Are you the king here?" Tang Chen asked.
"That's right." Blood Wolf suppressed his unease and spoke proudly.
"Very good." Tang Chen's Clear Sky Hammer materialized once again.
Immediately afterward, his figure shot out!
"Not good!" Blood Wolf's pupils suddenly contracted.
Only now did he truly feel the terrifying aura emanating from Tang Chen.
Although he was a Titled Douluo and could freely use soul rings and soul skills in the City of Slaughter,
even now, facing Tang Chen, he still felt as insignificant as dust.
Before he could even react, the Clear Sky Hammer was already in front of him.
Boom—!!!
Blood Wolf was slammed to the ground by the Clear Sky Hammer.
With just one blow, he was already severely injured, with countless bones broken throughout his body.
"Senior, spare me... please spare me..."
Blood Wolf, struggling to support his battered body, knelt on the ground, his voice trembling violently.
Tang Chen looked down at Blood Wolf from above and said in a deep voice:
"A few years ago, a young man with the Clear Sky Hammer Spirit came to the City of Slaughter. Where is he now?"
"Clear Sky Hammer..."
Blood Wolf was stunned, his heart pounding.
Could it be that the person in front of him was that young man's elder?
Thinking of this, Blood Wolf's heart sank to the bottom.
Because he knew that person was already dead.
Moreover, his death was not exactly honorable.
Blood Wolf said, "Senior, countless people fight to the death in the City of Slaughter every day, and the turnover rate is extremely fast. I really can't remember clearly what happened a few years ago..."
Tang Chen snorted coldly, and a powerful aura emanated from his body.
"Don't try to fool me. You are the king here, and the entire City of Slaughter is under your control. How could you not know? Speak! Is my Hao'er alive or dead?!"
Blood Wolf was so overwhelmed by Tang Chen's imposing aura that he could barely breathe.
He could only steel himself and say in a trembling voice, "He actually... he actually died two years ago."
"What did you say?!"
Tang Chen was struck dumb, his whole body jolted.
He knew Tang Hao's strength better than anyone else.
Tang Hao was exceptionally talented, and he had already mastered the Clear Sky Technique to perfection. In this City of Slaughter, where soul skills could not be used, he should theoretically have been able to protect himself.
How could he possibly die here?
"Who killed him?!"
Blood Wolf quickly said, "He was attacked and killed by a group of Fallen Ones."
Blood Wolf certainly knew the real cause of Tang Hao's death.
When Tang Hao came to train, he made rapid progress and naturally attracted the attention of the King of Slaughter.
After learning of Tang Hao's death, Blood Wolf also investigated the matter.
Because Su Mo didn't hide his identity at the time, he knew it was Su Mo who did it.
But he dared not say Su Mo's name out loud.
In his eyes, Su Mo was an unfathomable being, someone he simply couldn't afford to offend.
Now, the safest option was to pin everything on those Fallen Ones, since there was no way to prove it now that they were dead.
Moreover, strictly speaking, Su Mo only crippled Tang Hao; he did not kill him with his own hands.
Tang Hao did indeed die at the hands of the Fallen Ones.
Blood Wolf's words were not entirely lies.
Tang Chen stood there, speechless for a long time.
He never imagined that his grandson, on whom he had placed the most hope, would die at the hands of degenerates.
"Are you sure what you're saying is true? Do you know the consequences of deceiving me?" Tang Chen's voice was terrifyingly low.
Blood Wolf hurriedly said, "Senior, my life is in your hands. Even if I had the greatest courage, I would not dare utter a single falsehood to you."
"Since that's the case, then you can go and be buried with my Hao'er!"
Before he finished speaking, Tang Chen's Clear Sky Hammer transformed into a giant hammer once again and slammed down on the kneeling Blood Wolf!
"No—!!" Blood Wolf let out a desperate howl.
His soul power surged as he attempted a final struggle.
But in the face of absolute power, all efforts were in vain.
Boom! ...
Centered on Blood Wolf, the surrounding buildings instantly turned into ruins.
Countless Fallen Ones collapsed beneath the ruins before they could even scream.
Blood Wolf was also turned into minced meat in this attack.
Tang Chen stood suspended in mid-air, looking down at the ruins below.
He felt no joy, only endless sorrow.
Tang Hao died under mysterious circumstances, and even his remains could not be found.
What use was his old body, with its peak cultivation level?
The next moment, Tang Chen slammed the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand down hard once again.
One hammer blow, two hammer blows, three hammer blows...
Each hammer blow was accompanied by a violent tremor of the earth.
Before long, most of the inner city had been reduced to ruins, and countless Fallen Ones had perished.
Tang Chen stopped, and his anger finally subsided somewhat.
Immediately, he turned and left the City of Slaughter, flying straight toward the Clear Sky Sect.
He originally came here hoping to find an opportunity to improve his strength.
But now that Tang Hao was dead, he no longer had that thought.
