Douluo Continent V: Suppressing Tang San with the Might of the Super Beast God

"Oh, you child."

Seeing Xiao Yan's serious expression, Xiao Zhan knew he didn't want to cause trouble for himself, so he first sighed inwardly, and then...

Wutan City, the Xiao family.

Nalan Yanran, who did not return to Yunlan Sect with Ge Ye after stepping out of the gate, quickly went to the big tree opposite the Xiao family and bowed to Qiu Hougong, who was waiting for her there, saying, "Master, your disciple has returned."

"Hmm, how is it? Is everything going smoothly?"

Reaching out to help Nalan Yanran up, Qiu Hougong asked with a smile.

"There was a slight hiccup, but it's all been resolved..."

As Nalan Yanran spoke, she held up a beautifully crafted little box with her two delicate white hands, "And Xiao Zhan did not accept the gifts we prepared this time."

"Hmm, is there anything else besides this? Like an agreement or something?"

After waving the small box back, Qiu Hougong continued to ask Nalan Yanran.

"No, after I finished speaking, I followed Elder Ge Ye out."

Nalan Yanran replied.

Hearing Nalan Yanran say this, Qiu Hougong, who was not surprised at all, nodded and then said, "Well, let's go home."

"Yes, Master."

Nalan Yanran said respectfully, and then the two of them walked together toward the spatial rift that had been opened.

Upon returning to the Holy Venerable Hall, Qiu Hougong first led Nalan Yanran to the main hall specially prepared for her to rest, and then instantly went to the room where Gu Yuena and the others were.

"Husband!" x55

"Father (Dad)!" x51

Upon seeing Qiu Hougong appear, the women who had been intensely discussing techniques quickly separated from each other and surrounded him in a massive, overlapping formation.

"My husband, you're back..."

Reaching out to pull Qiu Hougong to sit down on the edge of the bed, Yun Yun slowly squatted down and said in a very gentle voice, "Has the Xiao family angered you? If so, I will set off now and send them to where they belong."

"No, they're quite obedient..."

Qiu Hougong smiled and held the nine-pound jade bamboo shoot, a small item that Yun Yun had carefully prepared for him, in his hands and played with it for a while.

Half an hour later, Qiu Hougong gently helped the blushing Yun Yun up after completing the initial tasks for the day. Then he said to his wife and daughters who were surrounding him, "Babies, get ready, I have something to show you."

"Okay!" x106

The women, who responded in unison, finished putting on their armor, and then Qiu Hougong released a weak soul from his system inventory.

"Huh? Where is this? Where did that ring go?"

Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, Yao Chen, who had just woken up from a deep sleep, was about to take a look when he was stunned by a large group of powerful soul forces.

"A Battle Saint?!"

Looking at Qiu Hougong, who was surrounded by a group of stunning beauties, Yao Chen sensed something was wrong. He first steadied his trembling soul, then reached out and bowed in Qiu Hougong's direction, saying, "Yao Chen, an eighth-grade alchemist, greets senior."

"No need to be so polite..."

Qiu Hougong waved at Yao Chen, then a dangerous smile appeared on his lips. "Anyway, you're going to die soon."

"?!!!"

Upon hearing Qiu Hougong's words, Yao Chen's soul, which had just stabilized, trembled once again. "Senior, did Yao Chen offend you or anyone around you in the past?"

"No, this is the first time we've met."

Qiu Hougong shook his head and said.

"Then why did you, senior, want to put Yao Chen to death?"

Yao Chen continued to ask.

"Do you even need to ask me? You know perfectly well."

Qiu Hougong spoke slowly.

"I know it myself..."

Yao Chen pondered for two seconds, then his expression became somewhat stiff.

"Hand it all over. If you do, I will not only spare your life, but I will also help you rebuild your body and allow you to regain your position as the number one alchemist on the Dou Qi Continent."

Qiu Hougong spoke up.

"It seems he already knows I possess the Burning Technique, but how did he find out? And why am I here? Never mind, I should think about how to save my life first..."

Yao Chen kept his thoughts to himself, but his expression remained well-controlled. "Senior, do you have any paper and pen here?"

What do you need these things for?

Qiu Hougong countered with a question.

"Replying to Senior, Yao Chen wants to write down everything you want to know."

Having already devised a solution, Yao Chen spoke very respectfully to Qiu Hougong.

"Okay, here you go."

After listening, Qiu Hougong nodded, then took out paper and pen from his system inventory and said, "Write down everything you know word for word, or you can just wait to disappear completely."

"Yes, senior."

Yao Chen said respectfully, and then he picked up his pen and wrote down the improved version of the Burning Technique that he had carefully designed.

A few minutes later, Yao Chen respectfully handed the paper to Qiu Hougong after finishing writing. "Senior, that's all I know. I've told you everything now."

"Hmm, very good..."

Qiu Hougong took the paper and examined it. After discovering that the contents of this Burning Technique contained many subtle details that would be fatal if practiced, Qiu Hougong smiled and raised his head. Then, looking at Yao Chen, who was still bowing to him, he said coldly, "If you practice according to what you wrote, it won't be long before you suffer a qi deviation and die from your body exploding, right?"

"He figured it out? Impossible! I'm the only one who's seen the Burning Blade Technique's cultivation method; he couldn't possibly know it..."

Hearing Qiu Hougong say this, Yao Chen, thinking he was being tricked, was about to speak when he saw Qiu Hougong burn the paper in his hand to ashes. "Alright, game over. Na'er, my darling, make your move."

"it is good."

Gu Yuena, who had been watching Qiu Hougong's performance for half a day, nodded, and then an invisible spear made of divine sense pierced towards Yao Chen, whose expression had suddenly changed.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

With a shrill scream, the medicine dust, unable to withstand Gu Yuena's attack, quickly dissipated, and then a white flame exuding coldness appeared in front of everyone.

"Huh? A fire emitting a chilling aura?"

Looking at the white flames that Qiu Hougong had already controlled, Xiao Wu, standing next to Ning Rongrong, tilted her head and asked in confusion, "Honey, is this also a strange fire? Why is it emitting cold air?"

"Yes, wife..."

Qiu Hougong, who had subdued the white flame, nodded and explained to Xiao Wu, "It's called the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, ranked eleventh on the Strange Flame Ranking. Because it possesses extreme cold attributes, it not only burns its opponent but also freezes them. You could say it's a Strange Flame version of a double dose of ice and fire."

"Oh, I see..."

After listening to Qiu Hougong's explanation, Shuiyue'er, her pretty face full of smiles, slowly walked up to Qiu Hougong, then blinked her big, sapphire-like eyes at him and said coquettishly, "Then, husband, would you like to try another kind of Bone Spirit Cold Flame? I guarantee it won't be any worse than this one."

"Oh? Really? Then my husband will have to give it a try."

Qiu Hougong smiled and said to Shuiyue'er in front of him, and then...

The following afternoon.

With gentle movements, Qiu Hougong covered the sleeping women with blankets. Looking refreshed, he put on his robe and walked out of the bedroom.

Upon arriving at the training ground, Qiu Hougong said to Nalan Yanran, who was still diligently practicing, "Yanran, stop for now."

"what?"

Upon hearing Qiu Hougong's words, Nalan Yanran quickly walked up to him and then respectfully asked, "Master, what's wrong?"

"Let's stop practicing here for today. Come on, your grandmaster will take you for a stroll around Wutan City."

Reaching out to pat Nalan Yanran's head, Qiu Hougong said gently.

"Okay!"

Nalan Yanran cheered, and then the two of them disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Upon arriving in Wutan City, Qiu Hou and Gong first went to the Xiao family to pick up Gu Xun'er, and then the three of them strolled around Wutan City together, chatting and laughing.

"Please wait a moment, you two beautiful ladies."

A slightly hoarse voice suddenly rang out. Qiu Hougong and the other two turned around and saw a young man who was about 1.9 meters tall and looked only slightly better than Tang Sanshuai walking towards them in a swagger, accompanied by several burly guards.

"Who are you? What do you want by stopping us?"

Looking at the unfamiliar man in front of her, Nalan Yanran, who was standing to the right of Qiu Hougong, frowned and asked.

"My name is Cao Chonghang, and I come from outside the Jiama Empire..."

The man named Cao Chonghang lightly waved his fan a few times, then revealed a smile that he thought was very handsome but was actually quite disgusting, and said, "Today is my first day in the Jiama Empire, and I am not very familiar with many places. Therefore, I would like to trouble you two ladies to temporarily act as my guides. What do you two ladies think?"

"No, we have other things to do and don't have time to give you any guidance."

Nalan Yanran firmly refused. She had already seen through the outsider's true thoughts from his eyes, so her tone was naturally not very friendly.

"Miss, don't be in such a hurry to refuse me..."

Seeing that Nalan Yanran refused, Cao Chonghang reached into his storage ring and took out two heavy bags of gold coins. He then said to Nalan Yanran and Gu Xun'er, "If you two ladies are willing, these five hundred gold coins are all yours. How about it? Think it over carefully?"

"Consider? Ha..."

Nalan Yanran sneered, then with a single stroke of her sword, she tore the two bags in Cao Chonghang's hands into dozens of tattered pieces. "This is my last warning to you. Leave now. Otherwise, I'll make you regret ever being born."

Seeing Nalan Yanran pointing her sword at him, Cao Chonghang's expression also turned gloomy.

"If you won't listen to reason, then don't blame me for being ruthless..."

He quickly took a few steps back, pointed at Qiu Hougong and the other two, and ordered, "Go! Kill the men, capture the women alive."

"Yes, young master!" x5

After the five guards finished speaking in unison, they released their auras and rushed towards Qiu Hougong and his group.

"Certainly."

Upon seeing the five guards, each possessing the cultivation of a one-star Great Dou Master, step forward, Qiu Hougong, who had remained silent until now, uttered a single word, "Freeze." The five one-star Great Dou Masters immediately froze in place, completely still.

"what?"

Seeing this, Kusashi Takashi, who had been quite calm, immediately panicked, "How did you do that?"

You don't deserve to know.

After Gu Xun'er finished speaking in an icy tone, she quickly walked up to Cao Chonghang and punched him in the nose.

*Snap!* Aaaaaah!

The sound of bones cracking and screams rang out at the same time. Just as Kusashi Shigehiro, who was covering his nose with his hands, was about to curse, a cold breath appeared on his neck.

"Don't move, or I'll make sure you never see the sun rise tomorrow."

Nalan Yanran said with a cold expression.

"Okay, I won't move. Please spare me, sir! Please spare me, sir!"

Kusashige raised his hands, large beads of sweat dripping down his face.

"shut up……"

Nalan Yanran shouted angrily, then turned to Qiu Hougong, who was not far away, and said, "Master, what should we do with these people?"

"Take them out of the city first."

Qiu Hougong said that the five one-star Grand Dou Masters who were originally frozen there also came to their senses and walked out of Wutan City together.

"Yes, Master."

Nalan Yanran said respectfully, and then she controlled the grass crane to walk out of Wutan City.

Five minutes later, Qiu Hougong, who had arrived at a small hill, waved his hand and restrained them, asking, "Tell me what you've done before?"

"Yes, sir. I'll tell you right away..."

Upon hearing Qiu Hougong's question, Cao Chonghang immediately began to recount his past experiences.

Ten minutes later, Gu Xun'er and Nalan Yanran clenched their little fists.

"Brother Qiu, let me do it."

Gu Xun'er looked at Qiu Hougong and said.

"No, Xun'er, let me do it."

Nalan Yanran drew her sword again and said.

"Stop arguing, I'll do it."

After Qiu Hougong finished speaking, he raised his left hand, and then a huge palm made of battle qi slammed down on Cao Chonghang and the others.

boom!

An explosion rang out, and Cao Chonghang was instantly flattened into a pancake under the terrifying pressure. The entire hilltop was also turned into a plain by Qiu Hougong's attack.

"Brother Qiu, let's go back."

Gu Xun'er gently took Qiu Hougong's large hand and said softly.

"it is good."

Qiu Hougong nodded, and then he took Gu Xun'er and Nalan Yanran back to Wutan City to continue strolling around.

"Grandmaster, look..."

Pointing to a rather ornate building not far from the three of them, he said, "That's the Mittel family's auction house. I've heard they have a lot of good stuff inside. Shall we go in and take a look?"

"Sister Yanran, with Brother Qiu's current strength, do you think there will be anyone at this auction that Brother Qiu will really care about?"

Gu Xun'er spoke up.

"Hey, Xun'er, you know what, there really is something here that I care about a lot..."

Qiu Hougong suddenly spoke, and then he took Gu Xun'er and the other two women and walked towards the auction.

Upon entering the auction, Qiu Hougong led Gu Xun'er and the other two women to a secluded corner to sit down.

"Master, what is it that you care about? Can you tell us now?"

Nalan Yanran clung to Qiu Hougong's arm and said coquettishly, her big, watery eyes filled with curiosity.
