With immense trepidation, the two hurried toward the center of the battlefield.
I'm eager to know what the final outcome of this epic battle will be.
The moment they finally saw what was in front of them.
The two of them were rooted to the spot, unable to move an inch.
Zhao Wuji swallowed hard, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down, making a clearly audible sound.
His eyes were wide open, like copper bells, staring intently at the body broken in two on the ground.
At this moment, my brain completely shut down.
"That...that's...Tang Hao?"
Zhao Wuji's voice was extremely dry, with a violent tremor that he himself was unaware of.
That girl, hailed as the youngest titled Douluo on the continent, is a peerless genius that the Haotian Sect has only seen once in a century!
That infamous Haotian Douluo, who strikes fear into the hearts of countless Soul Masters!
Just... dead?
And he died such a gruesome death, cut in half at the waist?!
Zhao Wuji felt that his worldview had been completely overturned at this moment, and then trampled into dust.
He couldn't believe his eyes!
"Hao... Haotian Douluo... is really... dead..."
Flander, standing next to Zhao Wuji, was in no better shape.
He adjusted his signature black-rimmed crystal glasses, his eyes behind the lenses filled with shock and horror.
As a Soul Saint and the Dean of Slade Academy, Flander considered himself to be knowledgeable and far more composed than the average person.
But what he saw before him was far beyond his comprehension.
That's a titled Douluo!
They stand at the very top of the entire Soul Master world! Each one of them is a super strong individual whose mere stomp can shake an entire region!
However, this very strong man was slaughtered like a chicken right before his eyes tonight!
And the person who killed him was none other than his own teacher, Ms. Su, who seemed harmless and was young!
Flander felt a chill run from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head, making the hairs on his body stand on end.
Looking at Su Xin's overly calm face, he felt no longer shock.
Rather, it was a fear that came from the depths of one's soul!
This Su Xin is nothing but a monster in human skin!
What is his background?
How strong is he?
Flander dared not think any further; he feared his heart could not withstand such stimulation.
Just as the two of them were stunned and stood there dumbfounded.
Su Xin slowly turned around, his dark eyes sweeping over them indifferently.
"You two, come here."
His voice was calm, without any discernible emotional fluctuation.
But this calm voice, when it reached the ears of Flander and Zhao Wuji, was no less powerful than the words of a demon god from the deepest hell.
The two of them shuddered and instinctively shivered.
They then exchanged a glance, and both saw deep fear in each other's eyes.
They dared not disobey, and could only walk stiffly, step by step, toward that figure that resembled a demon god.
Then he lowered his head, not daring to even breathe.
"Dean... Dean... Professor Su..."
Zhao Wuji stammered, wanting to say something, but not knowing what to say.
Su Xin ignored him and instead turned his gaze to Flander.
"Dean Flander."
"Yes, yes! Teacher Su, what can I do for you?"
Flanders was startled and quickly bowed in response, adopting an extremely humble posture.
He no longer dared to treat Su Xin as an ordinary teacher at the academy; Su Xin was clearly a living ancestor who needed to be treated with utmost care!
"I don't want a fourth person to know about what happened tonight."
Su Xin's tone remained calm, but the content of his words made the two of them's hearts skip a beat.
Do you understand what I mean?
Flander and Zhao Wuji's backs were instantly soaked with cold sweat.
How could they not understand!
This is a gag order!
It's a blatant threat!
"Understood! Understood! We absolutely understand!"
Flander nodded his head like a chick pecking at rice.
"Don't worry, Teacher Su, we didn't see or hear anything tonight!"
"There was just a gust of wind and a rain shower, nothing else happened!"
“Yes, yes, yes!” Zhao Wuji quickly echoed.
"We just came out for a walk, we'll be back soon! Tang Hao? Who's Tang Hao? We don't know him!"
The two men frantically pledged their loyalty, afraid that if they were even half a word too slow, the man before them would be displeased.
They also promptly "crushed them to ashes".
Seeing their terrified expressions, a faint smile appeared on Su Xin's lips.
"It's not enough for you to understand it."
He said slowly, "If I hear even a whisper of what happened tonight from anywhere else..."
“Slake Academy, from teachers to students, I will make sure you are all wiped out, not one of you left.”
These words were like a bolt from the blue, exploding in the minds of Flander and Zhao Wuji!
They slaughtered the entire faculty and students of Slake!
The two men trembled violently, their faces turning deathly pale in an instant.
They had no doubt about the truthfulness of Su Xin's words.
What is there that someone who dares to kill even a Heavenly Battle Maiden and does so without hesitation is incapable of?
Despite being the culmination of their efforts, Slake Academy was utterly powerless in the face of such absolute strength!
"No, no, no! Absolutely not! Don't worry, Teacher Su!"
Flander was terrified, and he swore an oath:
"I, Friend, guarantee it with my integrity, no, with my life!"
"No one else will know what happened tonight!"
"If even a single word of this is leaked, may I be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!"
"I swear too!" Zhao Wuji shouted.
"Anyone who dares to gossip will have their tongue ripped out by me!"
Seeing the two swearing oaths and practically kneeling down to kowtow, Su Xin nodded in satisfaction.
That's exactly the effect he wanted. Only absolute fear can bring absolute loyalty.
Just then, Flander's eyes lit up.
As if he had thought of something, he cautiously leaned forward, lowered his voice, and tentatively asked:
“Teacher Su… um… although Tang Hao is dead, Tang San is still in our academy…”
"What do you think...? Should we... nip it in the bud? Prevent future troubles?"
"I...I can do it for you!"
After saying that, Flander made a gesture of slitting his neck with his hand, his eyes revealing a ruthless glint.
In his view, since he had already offended the Haotian Sect to death, he might as well go all the way!
Only by eliminating Tang San can we completely eliminate any future troubles and demonstrate our determination and value to Su Xin!
Hearing this, Zhao Wuji, who was standing nearby, felt a pang of unease and his gaze towards Flander changed.
My God, what a stingy old man! I always thought he was greedy for money, but I never imagined he was so ruthless!
How old is Tang San? How could he do that?
However, upon further reflection, Zhao Wuji felt that Flander's words made sense.
The son of Haotian Douluo possesses extraordinary twin martial souls. If he were to grow up, he would be an enormous problem!
Su Xin glanced at Flander with some surprise.
This guy is indeed a ruthless and decisive tyrant, capable of both yielding and standing firm.
"No need," Su Xin shook his head lightly.
"Huh?" Flander was stunned. "Professor Su, this... this is like raising a tiger that will cause you trouble!"
"He's just a tiger cub that hasn't grown up yet; he can't cause any trouble. I still have some use for him."
Flander and Zhao Wuji looked at each other, completely baffled as to what Su Xin was up to.
