```
"Gurgle!"
"What kind of soul skill is this?"
"Are the four Elders alright?"
```
At this moment, the disciples of the Hao Tian Clan were stunned, staring blankly into the sky, swallowing their saliva hard.
```
"Is this Qin Xiao's true strength?"
```
Bone Douluo, seeing Qin Xiao in action for the first time, was also shocked.
He asked himself, if he were to face Qin Xiao's strike, he probably wouldn't fare much better.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
Suddenly, four figures shrouded in black smoke fell from the sky.
```
"Elder!"
```
The remaining disciples of the Hao Tian Clan showed a look of panic, no longer caring about fighting with others, they gathered in the direction where the four Elders had fallen, as if they had gone mad.
At this moment, among the four figures, three managed to barely control themselves and hovered in the air just before hitting the ground.
The Fifth Elder had it bad; after he fell to the ground, he made no sound, his fate unknown.
```
"Cough, cough."
"Qin Xiao, that was quite a move, really quite a move!"
```
After a violent fit of coughing, the Second Elder looked at Qin, "I didn't expect your strength to be so formidable, to contend against the four of us alone, we have indeed underestimated you."
```
"Is there any point in saying this now?"
```
Qin Xiao raised his eyebrows and said indifferently, "If there's nothing else to say, you can tell me where the treasures of the Hao Tian Clan are hidden, that, I am indeed interested in."
```
"Youngster, you're delusively wishful. Even if I die, you will never know."
```
The Seventh Elder shouted angrily.
```
"Alright then, go die!"
```
As Qin Xiao's voice fell, his seventh soul ring and the first soul ring lit up one after another.
Then, amid a roar, another Thunder Titan appeared on the scene.
```
"What!"
"This powerful soul skill can also enjoy the effects brought by the Martial Soul True Body?"
```
The many strong warriors of the Hao Tian Clan were shocked again. They couldn't help but complain in their hearts; isn't this way too overpowered?
```
"Seventh Brother, be careful!"
```
The Fourth Elder's face changed drastically, and he rushed towards the Seventh Elder, Hao Tian Hammer in hand.
```
"Sky-reaching Strike!"
```
The Second Elder's pupils suddenly contracted, deploying his own powerful soul skill, trying to stop the Thunder Titan's attack.
But it was still too late!
Because this time, the Thunder Titan was not attacking bluntly with its own body but released a soul skill.
It was the Titan Cangqiong Cannon with added features of thunder!
Crack...
A bolt of lightning rushed out from its wide mouth, tearing through the sky, aiming right at the Seventh Elder.
```
"Such speed, I have no time to dodge!"
```
The Seventh Elder's pupils shrunk; he just managed to activate his Martial Soul True Body and the Azure Sky Body Shield.
The massive Hao Tian Hammer, like a shield, was held in front of him.
And at that moment, the Titan Cangqiong Cannon, wrapped in lightning, had already struck the Seventh Elder.
His immediate feeling was the current frantically running through his body, numbing his entire body.
Then, under the action of a powerful impact force, he completely lost his grip on the Hao Tian Hammer, which then struck heavily against his chest in return.
```
"Blargh!"
```
The Seventh Elder immediately expelled a mouthful of blood, which sprayed on the Hao Tian Hammer.
```
"Seventh!"
```
"Seventh Elder!"
Shouts of alarm spread around the Seventh Elder.
But, it was as if the Seventh Elder heard none of it; the light in his eyes disappeared rapidly, and he finally fell to the ground, motionless.
```
"He's dead!"
```
"The Seventh Elder is dead!"
A look of disbelief appeared on everyone's face.
From the start of the battle to now, in just a dozen breaths, a Titled Douluo had fallen?
This... this was a Titled Douluo!
```
"I'm going to kill you, Qin Xiao!"
```
The Fourth Elder, looking frenzied, charged ferociously at Qin Xiao.
```
"Old Four, come back!"
```
The Second Elder tried to stop the Fourth Elder, but how could the Fourth Elder possibly hear the Second Elder's words now?
He had only one thought, to devour Qin Xiao's flesh raw, to drink Qin Xiao's blood.
Even, not just the Fourth Elder; the remaining strong warriors of the Hao Tian Clan also charged together with the Fourth Elder.
Crack!
At that moment, lightning struck down from the sky.
However, this time the thunder did not strike anyone but fell into Qin Xiao's hands, turning into a Thunder Hammer!
Thunder Explosion Kill!
Qin Xiao let out a low shout in his heart, and at the same time, he swung the Thunder Hammer fiercely at the Fourth Elder!
Boom!
The outpour of immense Soul Power sent even the Douluo Strong Warriors flying from the terrifying soul power fluctuation.
Ah...
Faintly, a scream could be heard.
But...
The sound disappeared too quickly, making it seem almost like an illusion.
However, everyone knew it was not an illusion.
Because the Fourth Elder had vanished within the thunder.
Clang clang.
Three crystalline soul bones fell to the ground, testifying that the Fourth Elder had indeed existed.
"Instant kill, another instant kill!"
"What kind of monster is this, exactly?"
In the distance, Bone Douluo sighed, witnessing Qin Xiao annihilate both the Fourth and Seventh Elders.
It felt as though a Titled Douluo was battling a Grand Soul Master, so easily.
Even for a moment, he doubted whether Qin Xiao had truly slashed down Titled Douluos.
Since when had Titled Douluos become so fragile?
"Tsk, old bones, this is just you making a fuss over nothing."
At that moment, the voice of Sword Douluo rang in Bone Douluo's ears, and clearly, he would not miss an opportunity to tease Bone Douluo.
"As if you're so experienced!" Bone Douluo retorted irritably.
"Of course I am!"
Sword Douluo nodded unabashedly, "Qin Xiao's Soul Power must be at Level Ninety-Three by now, plus he has wielded an astonishing soul skill. Forget about level 93, even a Titled Douluo of level 95 would have to steer clear.
Is it not easy to kill an injured Titled Douluo of level 91?"
Ah, this...
Bone Douluo was momentarily stunned, having to admit that Sword Douluo made sense.
But...
"I've lived for decades and have never seen such a ferocious Titled Douluo of level 93..."
Bone Douluo chuckled, but it was a bitter laugh.
"Uncle Jian, it's your turn to make a move!"
Suddenly, Ning Fengzhi spoke out.
Sword Douluo looked over to see five or six Soul Douluos from the Hao Tian Clan, fiercely charging at Qin Xiao without regard for their lives.
Normally, these remnants, even banded together, would not be a match for Qin Xiao.
But they of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect had made a promise that apart from the four main elders, they would deal with all other enemies themselves.
"Move Mountains and Fill Seas!"
Sword Douluo made his move, splitting the Seven Kill Sword into twelve sword shadows, which he controlled to attack the five or six Soul Douluos indiscriminately.
As for those Soul Douluos under Sword Douluo's focus, their faces instantly turned deathly pale.
In their hearts, they cried out in despair, It's over!
Boom, boom, boom.
The sword qi fell, securing instant kills.
In an instant, the only ones left alive from the Hao Tian Clan were the Second Elder and the Third Elder at Qin Xiao's feet.
"Why, why has it come to this!"
"My Hao Tian Clan faced the Martial Soul Hall and did not perish, yet we have been defeated by a mere youngster?"
"Puh!"
The Second Elder, overcome by furious rage, couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of fresh blood.
His expression quickly grew dismal.
Undeniably, the powerhouses of the Hao Tian Clan had all fallen here, and they were truly on the brink of doom.
And the one who had driven them to this dead end was none other than the young man before them.
If possible, he wished to return to the past, to never meddle in the extermination of the Clan of Strength, to never provoke Qin Xiao.
At this moment, the Second Elder exuded an even greater sense of desolation...
But Qin Xiao would not pity him.
Because enemies do not warrant pity.
"Tang Elder Two, it's time for you to depart as well."
Qin Xiao said indifferently, "Commit suicide. It's to give you, the Second Elder of the Hao Tian Clan, a dignified end."
"Kid, don't be too arrogant!"
"Today might be my end, but it is not the end of the Hao Tian Clan."
"Even as a ghost, I won't let you go."
Suddenly, the Second Elder spoke fiercely, "And our Hao Tian Clan leader, Tang Xiao is a genius who is heaven-sent; one day he will avenge us."
"Also, our patriarch who will revitalize the Hao Tian Clan, Tang Chen, is merely missing, not fallen. He was already a peak level 99 Titled Douluo; one day he will return to settle scores with you, annihilate your whole family and make you pay in blood."
"Tang Xiao?"
"Tang Chen?"
After hearing the Second Elder's words, Qin Xiao couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"What are you laughing at?"
"No, what are all of you laughing at?"
The Second Elder realized it wasn't just Qin Xiao laughing, even Sect Master Ning and Sword Douluo were also smiling, as if they had heard some amusing joke.
"Let's put it this way, after you die you'll be able to meet Tang Xiao. As for Tang Chen, once you're dead, he'll come looking for you too,"
Qin Xiao cleared up the Second Elder's confusion, "I'll do my best to reunite your whole family."
"What!"
"You mean, Tang Xiao has already fallen!"
"And Elder Tang Chen too...."
The Second Elder's eyes bulged, his voice trembling.
The meaning behind Qin Xiao's words was all too clear.
"That's right, now you too can be on your way."
Qin Xiao's voice had barely faded when he disappeared from his spot.
When he reappeared, he was standing behind the Second Elder.
"I... I...."
The Second Elder, belatedly aware, looked down to see.
At his chest was a hole the size of a fist that hadn't been there before, its edges charred black.
His heart had been blasted into fragments by the fearsome Thunderous Force.
Thud.
Finally, he fell helplessly to the ground.
"Who would've thought, the four Haotian Sect Elders would fall on the same day...."
From a distance, Sect Master Ning, Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, and others had complex expressions that they couldn't quite mask.
They had an unreal feeling.
The insurmountably prestigious Number One Sect in the world, the Haotian Sect, with the Number One Tool Soul, had actually fallen at the hands of such a youth.
"It's over, it's finally over."
"Haha, good, very good."
"Destroyed beautifully..."
Suddenly, a discordant voice rose in the middle of the field.
Why discordant?
Because Qin Xiao realized that the one who had uttered these words was the Haotian Sect's third elder.
After being crippled by Qin Xiao, he had been feigning death all along, not saying a word even as the other Elders fell.
Qin Xiao stared at the third elder for a while and then suddenly laughed, "Tang Lao San, playing dumb with me, are you?"
The third elder, oblivious, kept mumbling some incoherent things to himself.
Qin Xiao no longer paid attention to him and instead shouted toward the crowd from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, "Yiran, come here."
"Yes!"
In an instant, a girl with a proud figure emerged from the crowd and came in front of Qin Xiao.
It was Meng Yiran.
Her expression was somber, with a coldness that kept people at a distance.
Yet, when she saw Qin Xiao, that frigid demeanor seemed to melt away like ice and snow.
"Your Highness."
She called out crisply.
"Do you see him?"
Qin Xiao pointed at the third elder on the ground, "He is the third elder of Haotian Sect. Kill him. For now, consider it collecting some interest for your fallen clan members."
Qin Xiao hadn't forgotten the hatred in Meng Yiran's heart, nor had he forgotten the girl's solemn vow.
She vowed to kill Tang Hao and destroy the Haotian Sect.
"Your Highness, may I truly seek revenge myself?"
Meng Yiran suddenly trembled, her expression turning excited.
"Of course, and this is just the beginning. After you kill the third elder, we will head to the Haotian Sect headquarters and destroy their sect's gates."
"One day, father and son Tang Hao will also fall."
Qin Xiao said indifferently.
"Good!"
Meng Yiran nodded firmly.
Although she didn't say much, her heart was filled with gratitude.
Swish!
With a grasp, the Serpent Head Walking Stick appeared in her hand.
Dragging the walking stick, whose snakehead pointed downward, she took steps toward the third elder.
"Qin Xiao, you're really ruthless,"
"Tang Hao tangled with you, and you won't even spare our Haotian Sect disciples."
The third elder stopped his mad ranting and pointed at Qin Xiao, angrily shouting with feigned courage.
"Am I ruthless?"
Qin Xiao suddenly smiled, "If it weren't for my strength being sufficient, what do you think Tang Hao would have done to me? How would the Haotian Sect Elders have treated me?"
"And I gave you a chance, but what did you do? Instead of capturing Tang Hao, you mobilized the sect's power to attack me? You've wrought your own path to death."
After saying that, he didn't bother to listen to what the third elder wanted to say next and instead directly ordered Meng Yiran, "Yiran, do it."
"Yes." Meng Yiran responded again and slammed the Serpent Head Walking Stick heavily onto the third elder's chest.
With a crack, the third elder's chest caved in, and blood continuously spilled from his mouth.
The essence of life vanished rapidly.
In just a moment.
The Haotian Sect's third elder fell.
"Grandfather, Grandmother, do you see? Yiran has avenged you."
Meng Yiran muttered under her breath.
"Sect Master Ning, Senior Sword, Senior Bone, I'm not sure what your plans are next?"
At this point, Qin Xiao looked toward the people from the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect and asked.
"Haha, Brother Qin, whatever you plan to do next, just say the word, and my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect will give its full support," Sect Master Ning replied.
Being a smart man, Sect Master Ning clearly knew that even at this stage, things weren't over yet.
Qin Xiao didn't beat around the bush, "Alright, then let the experts from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect rest for a while, and afterward, we'll head to the Haotian Sect headquarters."
"We shall follow Brother Qin's lead," Sect Master Ning nodded.
"But before that, we have a few more things to do," said Qin Xiao as he waved his hand, sending out streaks of lightning.
In an instant, the corpses of the several Haotian Sect Elders turned to ash.
Tinkling sounds followed, as several shiny soul bones fell to the ground.
At a glance, the fall of the four Hawtian Sect Elders had left behind six or seven soul bones.
