Chapter 60: Chapter 60: An Equal Match!_1
Ning Rongrong's eyes hardened, and she strode over with a bit of frustration, "Xu Sheng, aren't you going to stay here? Or do you just find me that repulsive?"
Xu Sheng wanted to explain, but he found that under the influence of the Nine-heart Asiatic Apple, he had no idea what to say…
After a moment of silence, with an expression as still as an ancient well he said, "No, I have other matters to attend to. Their memories have been erased; you're safe here!"
Moreover, outside of Shrek, apart from the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect's Sword Douluo!
There was also another terrifying figure, Tang San's father, Tang Hao!
The events that had just unfolded couldn't possibly have gone unnoticed by the two of them...
And seeing that Xu Sheng didn't even seem to want to explain...
Ning Rongrong suddenly mocked herself, her eyes filling with a few strands of mist, yet she said resolutely, "Xu Sheng, don't you have any affection for me at all?"
Tang San raised his eyebrows, "Oh no, Brother Sheng is going to crash and burn this time! But what exactly is the status of their relationship? It looks like Brother Sheng cares a lot about Ning Rongrong, but there's no sign of them being lovers either."
It actually seemed more like his own relationship with Xiaowu, but by comparison, he and Xiaowu were much closer.
His eyes then affectionately shifted to Xiaowu, who was leaning against his arm…
…
"Rongrong, I do indeed have some affection for you in my heart..." Xu Sheng, gazing at Ning Rongrong's pitiable appearance, didn't have the heart to hurt her...
At this moment, Ning Rongrong said with a crying voice, "Then can't you give me a clear answer? I've been waiting for three years, but that doesn't mean I want to wait another moment! Xu Sheng, have you ever liked me?"
Xu Sheng pursed his lips, unsure of what to do, and silently reached out to gently rub Ning Rongrong's head...
But, he truly had no romantic feelings for her...
In contrast, when Ning Rongrong saw Xu Sheng's familiar gesture, her eyes already brimming with tears, sparkled with hope...
However, Xu Sheng slowly let go of her, turned his back coldly, "I'm sorry, Rongrong, I've only ever seen you as a sister..."
Upon receiving such an indifferent response from Xu Sheng, Ning Rongrong's face froze in an instant, and the next moment, she silently bowed her head...
Xu Sheng, with his back to Ning Rongrong, looked up at the forest ahead and then said indifferently, "I'm leaving, Rongrong. Take care of yourself!"
Having said that, he left without looking back...
The next moment, Ning Rongrong, who had been holding back from showing her fragile soul in front of Xu Sheng, finally could no longer restrain herself and sobbed into her hands...
Watching the tormented Ning Rongrong, Tang San, even though it had nothing to do with him, felt his heart clenched...
He sighed quietly, "Brother Sheng is being too heartless. But wasn't he always warm and friendly before? What exactly made him like this now?"
The Xiaowu who had been silent against his arm slowly said, "It's his Martial Soul!"
Tang San, struck by the realization, asked, "Xiaowu, are you saying that Brother Sheng's Martial Soul has affected him?"
"Mhm," Xiaowu replied with a single word and shrank back, not saying another word...
…
In the small grove, Sword Douluo Chen Xin cursed vehemently, "Damn it, this brat actually dared to reject my Ning Rongrong to her face. If it weren't for the Sect Master's orders not to lay a hand on you, old man, I would have thrashed you today!"
A very faint voice sounded by his side, "Indeed..."
Sword Douluo Chen Xin's eyes suddenly focused, and he quickly retreated two steps, looking warily at the man in front of him, dressed in a tattered cloak and radiating an aura of kingship...
Who was this man? How did he manage to approach silently, and how come he himself had utterly failed to detect his presence!!
Chen Xin extended his palm, and the Seven Kill Sword, full of ferocious aura, appeared in his hand, his eyes coldly demanding, "Who are you?"
Yellow yellow purple black black black black black, nine soul rings emerged from beneath his feet...
```
The caped man was none other than Tang San's father, Hao Tian Douluo, Tang Hao!
Tang Hao's indifferent eyes glanced at the vigilant Sword Douluo Chen Xin, "Me? Just a passerby!"
Chen Xin's eyes narrowed as he tightened his grip on the Seven Kill Sword, and coldly shouted, "Passerby? To approach me so silently! How was I not aware that a passerby could possess such strength!"
This seemingly ordinary man suddenly gave him an indistinct sense of pressure!
This person was definitely not simple!
Tang Hao's gaze grew colder, "Oh? Thinking of making a move?"
As he spoke, nine soul rings gradually appeared from under his feet, especially the last soul ring, whose oppressive aura made the surrounding people's faces change in fear!!
Upon seeing that blood-red soul ring that gave him a bad premonition, Chen Xin exclaimed, "A hundred-thousand-year soul ring!!"
The next second, a name suddenly popped into his head, the man who wielded the Hao Tian Hammer, and with his own might, severely injured the Pope—the youngest Titled Douluo on the Continent!
Tang Hao!
"You... you are Hao Tian Douluo, Tang Hao!"
If it was him, then having a hundred-thousand-year soul ring would not be surprising at all!
Chen Xin's trembling emotions gradually calmed down...
"To think someone still recognizes me, Tang Hao!" Tang Hao said, his face showing not the slightest bit of surprise...
Sword Douluo's eyes suddenly widened, "Wait, could it be that Tang San..."
"Hmm..." After a final response, Tang Hao vanished in the blink of an eye from Chen Xin's view...
Chen Xin's eyes flickered a few times as he thought to himself, "Tang Hao has reappeared in the world, is he preparing to come back for revenge? It seems Martial Soul Hall is in trouble this time..."
...
Xu Sheng, slowly walking, suddenly stopped, his cold voice slowly said, "Uncle Hao, since you're here, come out..."
Behind Xu Sheng, the figure of Tang Hao slowly emerged, "Kid, your talent is truly astonishing, even surpassing Xiaosan by far..."
Upon hearing this, Xu Sheng turned around slowly, and at last, a pair of eyes filled with chill confronted Tang Hao's...
"Hum～"
Neither of them spoke again...
The next moment, a strong and terrifying murderous intent burst forth from Tang Hao, to such an extent that the aura of killing had solidified into reality, causing the space around to tremble almost...
This was the Killing God Domain!
Only after slaughtering countless powerhouses personally in Slaughter City could one obtain this terrifying domain!
This dreadful murderous intent suddenly surged toward Xu Sheng...
In an instant, from Xu Sheng's body, a killing aura not any weaker than the Killing God Domain erupted, easily swallowing up the surging murderous intent...
The two terrifying killing auras began to erode each other's domains relentlessly...
For a while, the gap between the two seemed to stabilize...
After a long while, Tang Hao, looking at Xu Sheng who had effortlessly resisted his Killing God Domain, said indifferently, "Kid, it seems that in these years, the lives you've taken are already close to mine..."
"You jest, Uncle Hao..."
Xu Sheng's words were still devoid of any emotion...
