Douluo: Bibi Dong Abandons, Snow Empress Raises to Adulthood

Qian Renxue glanced at Oscar, who was standing to the side, holding his severed arm with a gloomy expression. Then she looked at Dai Mubai, who was curled up on the ground, trembling uncontrollably. At this moment, she more or less understood the situation.

She bypassed Zhu Zhuqing, who was still in shock, walked past Tang San and Ning Rongrong, and arrived at Xue Tianyu's side.

"It's so late. Why are you here?"

Xue Tianyu asked curiously. This wasn't a time when most people would be active.

"I just suddenly wanted to see you." Qian Renxue smiled charmingly and leaned in closer.

Earlier, when she was dealing with Yu Xiaogang in Spirit Hall, she had felt restless.

But now, breathing in Xue Tianyu's scent, she felt an overwhelming sense of calm.

It was as if only by being near Xue Tianyu could she feel this at ease.

She didn't know why, but the world seemed to work in mysterious ways.

Seeing Qian Renxue like this, Xue Tianyu couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.

He reached out and gently stroked her head.

'If no one else spoils my sister, then I will!'

Qian Renxue enjoyed it immensely, closing her eyes and slightly nudging her head into his touch, a satisfied expression on her face.

"Who's that?" Feeling much better, Qian Renxue finally noticed the middle-aged man standing opposite Xue Tianyu.

The man held a massive hammer and exuded a rather formidable presence.

"Him?" Xue Tianyu chuckled. "Clear Sky Douluo."

"Clear Sky Douluo?"

Qian Renxue tilted her head and thought of someone.

"Tang Hao?"

She was very familiar with this name.

Because she had been told that it was this very Tang Hao who had killed her father, Qian Xunji.

"That's right, it's him—Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao."

Qian Renxue's breath hitched.

She hadn't expected that what started as a mere whim to visit Xue Tianyu would lead to her encountering someone who had disappeared from the entire continent!

Most importantly, this was the very person who had killed Qian Xunji!

Tang Hao!

"Tang Hao, the one who killed my father." Qian Renxue's eyes instantly turned red.

Back then, even though she didn't have Bibi Dong's love, at least she still had a father.

Qian Xunji had treated her well.

So, even if she lacked motherly affection, she had still been able to feel fatherly love.

As a child, Qian Renxue had been deeply reliant on Qian Xunji—after all, he was one of the few sources of warmth in her life.

She cherished that warmth greatly.

But one day, it was gone.

Qian Xunji had turned into a cold corpse.

From that moment on, Qian Renxue had felt as if her entire world had collapsed.

And the one responsible for it all—was Tang Hao!

Clear Sky Douluo!

He was the one who had killed Qian Xunji!

The one who had taken away her only warmth!

For countless days and nights, she had cultivated relentlessly, dreaming of the day she could kill Tang Hao with her own hands!

"Tianyu, this man is very important to me. I want to kill him myself, to tear him apart. He is my enemy—the one who murdered my father." Qian Renxue turned to look at Xue Tianyu.

Xue Tianyu knew the truth behind it all. He gently stroked Qian Renxue's head in reassurance. "I see… Then in the future, you will have your chance for revenge."

"But the one who killed Qian Xunji wasn't him."

Qian Renxue looked at Xue Tianyu in shock.

For years, she had believed that Tang Hao had been the one to kill Qian Xunji, the one who had stripped away the last of her tenderness.

Now, she was being told otherwise?

Xue Tianyu looked at Qian Renxue's stunning face, which bore a resemblance to his own, and his gaze softened.

"Sister… cough… But if you still want to kill him personally, that's not impossible. I can help you."

Qian Renxue was momentarily stunned, her beautiful face showing a complicated expression. "For so many years, I have trained tirelessly, day and night, just to personally take his life.

"Killing him is my obsession. I want to do it myself. When I have enough strength, I will cut him down, piece by piece, and make him pay."

"Tianyu, this has nothing to do with you. I have trained in the sword for years, only for the sake of avenging my father."

Xue Tianyu's gaze turned complex. Then he suddenly pulled Qian Renxue behind him.

"I understand. Just wait behind me for now. Someone's getting impatient."

The moment his words fell, a domineering wave of soul power pressed down.

"Are you two finished talking?" Tang Hao stepped forward with a frown. "Hand over Xiao Wu."

Xue Tianyu pointed his Ice God Spear at Tang Hao. "I told you, let's see what you're capable of first."

In an instant, Tang Hao laughed.

"You're the first person to talk so arrogantly to me!"

As he spoke, the soul power in his body surged into the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand.

Xue Tianyu's eyes sharpened. This was his first time fighting a Titled Douluo in a proper battle.

'If I can't even beat Tang Hao, how can I talk about revenge against Bibi Dong?'

Feeling the immense power gathering in Tang Hao's Clear Sky Hammer, Xue Tianyu finally revealed his spirit.

Spirit—Ice and Snow Essence!

In that instant, the temperature within a hundred-mile radius dropped by at least ten degrees!

The stream outside Tianshui Academy began to show signs of freezing.

"So pure… such a pure ice-type martial soul…"

Tang Hao's eyes narrowed, realizing that ordinary methods wouldn't work against Xue Tianyu. He immediately tossed his Clear Sky Hammer into the air.

At the same time, his seventh soul ring lit up.

"Seventh Soul Skill—Martial Soul True Body!"

The Clear Sky Hammer expanded into a massive hundred-meter-long hammer in the sky.

Then, it came crashing down toward Xue Tianyu!

The sheer force of it caused nearby buildings to tremble violently, as if they would collapse at any moment.

Tang San was overjoyed.

'So my hammer martial soul is actually this powerful!'

Ning Rongrong, seeing the Clear Sky Hammer's might, was also excited. With Clear Sky Douluo's power, they would surely be able to escape.

The only downside was that vile woman, Xiao Wu, would return.

Then, Brother San might no longer be hers.

And she had already broken off with that simp Oscar…

Ning Rongrong suddenly felt a crack in her heart.

...

Xue Tianyu watched the descending Clear Sky Hammer and exhaled lightly.

"Ice Spirit Shield—Activate!"

Immediately, two snowflake-shaped crystals appeared around him.

The Clear Sky Hammer struck down at an astonishing speed—but was stopped by a blue shield.

Not only that, ice started to spread across the hammer's surface.

Tang Hao's expression changed, and he hurriedly recalled his Clear Sky Hammer, canceling its true form.

But how could Xue Tianyu let him take it back unscathed?

With a graceful flick, his Ice God Spear shot out a frigid wave directly at Tang Hao.

Tang Hao had no way to retrieve the Clear Sky Hammer normally now. Gritting his teeth, he roared—

"Explode!"

His first soul ring instantly detonated!

The resulting wave of soul power barely countered the freezing energy, allowing Tang Hao to retrieve his hammer.

He was shocked.

'So much pressure… from just the first exchange?'

But then he reassured himself—it was just because he had been careless.

'As long as I'm more cautious, there's no problem!'

With that thought, his confidence returned.

"Kid, if you can't take my next move, you'll die!"

"Go ahead."

Xue Tianyu twirled the Ice God Spear in his hand before resting it behind him.

Tang Hao could only shatter his soul rings to block that first spear strike—so it didn't seem all that impressive.

In that case, Xue Tianyu figured this was a good chance to practice his soul skills.

After all, even if Tang Hao wasn't much, he could still serve as a decent sparring partner.

"Alright, I see now—you really are young and reckless." The earlier clash had made Tang Hao realize that he couldn't underestimate him anymore.

Ordinary methods might not be enough to win.

Tang Hao raised his Clear Sky Hammer, and a white light instantly shone from it. "Take my White Tiger Strike!"

At that moment, his third soul ring lit up, and a thunderous tiger roar erupted from the Clear Sky Hammer.

"A strike imbued with the power of the White Tiger."

A trace of anticipation flashed in Xue Tianyu's eyes as his first soul ring lit up.

"Ice Heart Path!"

Xue Tianyu spun the Ice God Spear twice in his hand, sending the chilling energy from his grip to the tip of the spear. Then, he traced two perfect circles in the air.

A blue radiance gleamed at the spear's tip.

With a light flick from below, a frigid wind swept across the battlefield, forming a frost-covered path.

Tang Hao gripped his hammer and dodged the initial icy gust, looking down on it in his heart. 'Such a slow-moving wind—who would even get hit by that?'

He completely ignored the frost-covered path.

Swinging his hammer, he charged forward. But the moment he stepped onto the icy path, both he and his hammer were instantly frozen solid!

"Never underestimate a skill you don't understand." Xue Tianyu gazed calmly at the now-frozen Tang Hao and slowly extended his hand, forming a sword-finger gesture.

"Ice Explosion—burst!"

"Boom!"

The moment his words fell—

The ice covering the battlefield shattered instantly!

A surge of ice spikes erupted, and the explosive force spread across the entire area!

The chilling aura of Ultimate Ice filled the surroundings, making everyone shudder involuntarily. Under the might of this ice-type ultimate move, they trembled in fear!

The ice encasing Tang Hao detonated on the spot, and the snowy-white frost sent another wave of cold through the air.

"Pfft…"

Blood spurted from Tang Hao's mouth as he stared at Xue Tianyu in utter disbelief.

Only one person showed a satisfied expression—Bing Di, who stood by the window.

"Tianyu's move… has a bit of my style!"

Xue Di turned to her. "You know Ice Explosion?"

Bing Di instantly froze in embarrassment.
