Chapter 103: Bound to Die? Tang Hao vs. Chen Xin

Tang Hao felt his blood boiling all over his body; he could not wait to see Luo Ye, then smash his head into pulp with a hammer—only that could vent his hatred.

Oh no, doing that would be far too lenient on Luo Ye.

Since Luo Ye destroyed his hope, Tang Hao would torture him to the point of unbearable pain, letting him die in anguish and despair.

Tang Hao, while pondering how to torture Luo Ye in his mind, sprinted wildly toward the training field.

Zhao Wuji wanted to give chase, but could not keep up with his speed at all.

In just a few breaths, Tang Hao had arrived among the crowd.

"Where is Luo Ye? Who is Luo Ye? Tell me quickly!"

After sensing Tang Hao's gaze that seemed ready to devour someone, the Shilaike Academy crowd hurriedly all pointed at Luo Ye opposite them.

"That's him."

Tang Hao glanced up and down at Luo Ye, his visage ferocious as he spoke.

"It's you, this damned bastard, who made Tang San absorb four ten‑year soul rings, right?"

As a killing god who walked out of the Slaughter City, even if Tang Hao did not deliberately unleash his slaughter domain, everyone still seemed able to smell a strong reek of blood from him.

Flandre and Yu Xiaogang, who were nearest, felt their hearts race and desperately wanted to distance themselves from this state of Tang Hao.

However, Luo Ye seemed unaffected, did not answer Tang Hao's question, but turned his head to look at Flandre and spoke mockingly.

"It seems your method of shifting blame is quite clever, making everyone think this matter is my responsibility."

Upon hearing that, Tang Hao shifted his gaze to Flandre, causing the Shilaike Academy dean to feel his breath catch, and he directly glared angrily at Luo Ye.

"You yourself are the chief culprit of this matter; do you still want to deny it?"

Flandre then gave Oscar and Tang San, among others, a glance, signaling them to cooperate with him.

After great effort, relying on Yu Xiaogang's lie to let Tang Hao spare them, if Luo Ye were to expose the truth, their fate would surely be utterly miserable.

Flandre now realized that Tang Hao's mentality was fundamentally abnormal.

Once his anger flares up, there is nothing he cannot do.

Oscar understood Flandre's gesture, quickly pointing at Luo Ye and shouting.

"Obviously all this is your responsibility; without you, things could never have come to this."

Tang San also did not want Flandre, Yu Xiaogang, and the others to be killed by Tang Hao, so he nodded heavily in agreement.

"Even if you're not on our side, you could just leave Shilaike Academy; why must you harm us like this?"

"Can't you stand up like a man and take responsibility for your mistakes?"

Luo Ye laughed.

As expected, the shamelessness of Shilaike Academy never disappoints.

But this also suits him just fine; after learning of this matter, whether it be Gu Yue Na and the Shilaike Academy's three beauties, or Dugu Yun and Ye Lingling, or the other holders of Diary copies,

Even if they had myriad connections with Tang San and Shilaike Academy, they would absolutely not doubt the fabrications Luo Ye wrote in the Diary about their evil deeds in past lives.

To firmly fix the image of the Shilaike group in their minds, Luo Ye once again began writing in the Diary.

【Well, well, well, it seems that even after being reborn once, I still somewhat underestimated the shamelessness of Tang San and these Shilaike folks.】

【Although making Tang San and Oscar absorb ten‑year soul rings was Na'er's doing, and I and Na'er can be said to be a half‑married couple's community of interest, in a sense I can indeed be considered the chief culprit.】

【But Zhao Wuji and Tang San and the others could never possibly discern the truth; nevertheless they ended up pushing all the blame onto me.】

【Wanting to avoid being slain by the enraged Tang Hao in this way—truly no surprise coming from Shilaike.】

【That is, I never intended to vindicate myself; otherwise I would truly be unable to defend myself despite a hundred mouths.】

【Although it was somewhat unexpected that Tang Hao would come to Shilaike at this time, fortunately I had prepared in advance, having Ning Rongrong summon the Sword Douluo.】

【I actually want to see whether this Heavenly Sky Douluo is truly a match for the Sword Douluo.】

The very conduct of these Shilaike folks already makes Gu Yue Na and the Shilaike Academy's three beauties, as well as Dugu Yun and Ye Lingling, feel disgust.

Now, after seeing Luo Ye's Diary, their inner hostility and disgust toward Shilaike Academy have grown even stronger.

Tang Hao could become a Heavenly Sky Douluo; although he is indeed a bit foolish in some matters, he is absolutely not stupid.

After seeing Luo Ye's reaction, he realized that the truth of the matter was absolutely not as Flandre and the others claimed.

In this soul‑hunting operation, Zhao Wuji's responsibility is certainly greater than Luo Ye's.

But after a moment of silence, Tang Hao ultimately still decided to play dumb.

He also hoped that Yu Xiaogang could find a method to replace soul rings in the Spirit Hall's archives; even if they were to turn against each other, it absolutely could not happen now.

One could simply wait until Tang San cultivates to the rank of Title Douluo, then purge those low‑level soul rings, re‑absorb higher‑year soul rings, and only then settle accounts with Flandre and Yu Xiaogang.

Trying to fool him as a fool—do you really think the Heavenly Sky Hammer can't kill a person?

Tang Hao gave Flandre, Yu Xiaogang, and the just‑arrived Zhao Wuji a deep look, paid them no further heed, and slowly stepped toward Luo Ye, speaking each word clearly.

"No need to struggle; you are surely doomed."

Upon hearing those words, Ning Rongrong let out a cold laugh.

"Really?"

"Sword Grandfather, now it's up to you."

As Ning Rongrong's words fell, a tall and straight figure appeared directly before the seven members of the New Emperor Battle Team.

Sword Douluo Chen Xin looked at Tang Hao, Flandre, and the others with an expressionless face and spoke lightly.

"Before Rongrong told me about this, I didn't really believe it, thinking that even if you were shameless, you'd still have some limits."

"But the fact still exceeded my expectations; you lot truly have no shame at all."

Although Chen Xin did not unleash the Seven‑Slaying Sword martial soul, his whole body still faintly exuded sword qi, making him seem like a sharp treasured sword.

Moreover, Ning Rongrong's recent address to him made everyone instantly realize his identity.

"Sword Douluo, Chen Xin!"

Tang Hao's gaze grew somewhat grave; he had originally thought dealing with Luo Ye would be as easy as crushing an ant.

Never expected a troublemaker to appear at the critical moment.

Even if Tang Hao had confidence in his own strength, he couldn't help but admit that Chen Xin's strength far surpassed his.

To avoid further trouble, Tang Hao looked at him and said in a low voice.

"Sword Douluo, this matter has nothing to do with you; I hope you can give me face and not interfere."

Chen Xin raised his sword brows and said without hesitation.

"Luo Ye is under my protection; you can't touch him."
