Chapitre 369: Chapter 198 Tang Hao's Mentality Collapsed, Do You Even Consider Me Human?_2
```
"What the hell?"
Tang Hao's pupils suddenly shrank, "But I didn't do anything in the first examination, how could I possibly pass it?"
"It's okay, I helped you."
What the... I don't need your help! Tang Hao thought to himself, already too exhausted to complain.
"Take it seriously, we are in the middle of the examination. The waves are fierce, if you don't resist seriously, you might actually die!"
At this moment, Qin Xiao's voice rang out again, awakening Tang Hao, whose mind had wandered off.
"Die!"
Tang Hao felt a tremor in his heart and instinctively prepared to resist with all his might.
But, he quickly realized the problem.
"Wait a minute, I'm supposed to die anyway, why the hell should I resist?"
Thinking this, he suddenly spread his arms wide and mumbled to himself, "Let the tides come even more violently."
"I want to die, I dream of dying!"
But how could Qin Xiao wish Tang Hao's will?
As series of hand seals were struck, thunderclouds gathered densely.
Tang Hao looked up at the sky, utterly shocked.
He saw the purple stars formed by the Thunderous Force nearly blinding his damn eyes.
And the terrifying power bursting from the Thunder Stars made Tang Hao feel a sense of alarm.
"This kid, how does he have so many wicked methods..."
That's what Tang Hao was thinking as he secretly gulped down his saliva heavily.
"Go."
By this time, Qin Xiao had already accumulated enough power and pointed at the surrounding cliffs.
Boom boom boom~
The Thunder Stars fell like meteors one by one.
In an instant, they blasted a large hole into the dark rock walls around them.
The sea water poured out in large amounts, and the tidal waves instantly shrunk from hundreds of meters high to just over ten meters...
"You can do this, too?"
Tang Hao was shocked; he never expected Qin Xiao to help him in this way...
"Doesn't it warm your heart?" Qin Xiao asked with a smile.
In an instant, Tang Hao's face changed again, turning dark with a tinge of purple, almost dying from anger.
Warm heart?
Heh.
He felt even colder.
Qin Xiao's actions made Tang Hao feel like he was a pig.
You are cared for with good food and drink, not because there's any affection for you, but because they're waiting for the New Year to slaughter you...
Seeing Tang Hao stay silent, Qin Xiao kept talking, "This Tidal Body Forging takes twelve shichen, you keep training, I'm going to find a place to sleep."
As his voice fell, Qin Xiao turned into a bolt of lightning and shot into the clouds.
And he just vanished into the pitch-black thunderclouds...
"I really hope a bolt of lightning strikes that damn guy dead."
Seeing this, Tang Hao cursed under his breath.
But on second thought, that wasn't right.
With Qin Xiao's nefarious ways, the Thunderous Force would only increase his Cultivation Level.
"Sigh."
He couldn't help but sigh, "It's true that good people don't last long, while scourges plague the world for a millennium."
Who knows how much time had passed, Tang Hao had fallen asleep on a pillar formed from Deep Sea Sunk Silver.
He had no choice.
Who made figuring out how to escape Qin Xiao's clutches so brain-racking??
[Tenfold Tide Connection passed, reward: soul power rank +1, all Soul Rings' duration increased by 500 years.]
"What!"
Upon hearing the voice in his mind, Tang Hao almost believed it was an illusion.
But then, wave after wave of Soul Power as if born out of thin air, merged into his body.
"It's true, my strength is actually increasing!?"
Tang Hao was first startled, then his face showed wild joy.
He didn't expect such good fortune.
"If this continues, does that mean, I might have the chance to turn the tables and kill Qin Xiao and Bossi during the Sea God's examination?"
In a flash, a plan emerged in Tang Hao's heart.
It was how to deal with the cunning tactics of that dog couple, Qin Xiao and Bossi.
"First, I'll pretent to passively accept the examinations, secretly building up power. Once I inherit the position of Great Priest of Sea God, I'll immediately strike hard at Qin Xiao, and then turn around to suppress Bossi!"
```
"Hahaha, perfect, it's just perfect."
"Qin Xiao, Bossi, you could never have dreamed that everything you so carefully arranged was actually for my benefit, right?"
In this moment, Tang Hao felt all the frustrations sweep away, leaving a bright future ahead.
"If you want to laugh, just laugh out loud. Don't hold it in or you'll hurt yourself."
"I can't, I can't let Qin Xiao know what I'm thinking."
As such thoughts echoed in his head, Tang Hao subconsciously responded.
But, a moment later, he realized something was amiss, "Wait, who's talking to me?"
He instantly opened his eyes and found Qin Xiao looking at him with a smirk that hardly concealed mockery and jest.
"You, when did you come here?"
Tang Hao instinctively backed away.
But, there was only so much space above the pillar, and within a few steps, Tang Hao was already at the edge, with nowhere to retreat.
"I come whenever I want to come. But you, have you been having dreams you shouldn't be having?"
"I did not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense."
Tang Hao shook his head frantically.
What a joke, even if it killed him, he couldn't reveal his true thoughts.
"Really not? Don't you think that succeeding in the assessment wouldn't raise your strength and increase your Soul Ring's age?"
"Ah that..." Upon hearing this, an unnatural look appeared on Tang Hao's face. He pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Could something like that happen? I don't know!"
Seeing Tang Hao still pretending, Qin Xiao laughed, "Tang Hao, oh Tang Hao, you've got quite the scheme, but it seems you've forgotten a problem."
"What are you talking about, I can't understand a word!"
Tang Hao still refused to admit anything.
"That is, I too have passed several assessments, and not just me, many around me have gone through them as well. After succeeding, the changes that happen, you think I'm unaware!?"
Boom!
Qin Xiao's words struck Tang Hao like a thunderclap.
He had planned thoroughly, yet he now realized he had overlooked the most fundamental issue.
"It's over, it looks like the follow-up plan can't happen. I can only fight with all I've got, or die trying to stop Qin Xiao's plan."
Tang Hao was no ordinary person.
Decisive in action, superior in intellect, he instantly made a new resolve.
Yet,
Qin Xiao was faster, preempting Tang Hao and appearing before him.
Thunder Soul Power surged into Tang Hao's body with ferocious brutality, instantly shattering the Soul Power he had just gathered.
Spurt...
Tang Hao immediately deflated like a punctured ball, all strength drained from him, and he knelt down powerlessly.
"That's more like it."
"Just quietly accept reality," Qin Xiao slowly said. "Since I dared to bring you here, I won't let you have any chance to turn the tables. Even if you are aided by the Sea God's power, I am not afraid."
"Qin Xiao, you are the heir of the Sea God. Do you not fear the Sea God learning of this and punishing you for your irreverence?"
"Do you think, I'm afraid?"
Tang Hao looked up sharply, only to meet Qin Xiao's blazing eyes, their fiery glow startling and awe-inspiring.
Do you think, I'm afraid?
This phrase kept echoing in Tang Hao's mind.
Everyone said that Tang Hao of the Hao Tian Clan was unmatched in his tyranny, far from the level of even Tang Xiao, the Haotian Sect Master.
But compared to Qin Xiao, he still fell short by an unknowable extent.
No other reason.
When he and Qin Xiao were of similar age, at best he ruled over his peers.
But what about Qin Xiao?
He looked down on, not just peers, but even the level 99 Tang Chen was not regarded by Qin Xiao.
His gaze had already ascended to beyond, to the Divine Realm's Deities, whom every person on Soul Land looked up to in reverence.
"However, just to be safe, I think I should do something about you."
Suddenly, Qin Xiao spoke again.
"Eh?"
"Do something?"
Tang Hao felt a chill in his heart; he believed that whatever Qin Xiao meant by doing something, it was definitely not pleasant.
"Didn't you say you don't care about me?"
"That's right, I do. But what about others? You're so sly, it's impossible to ensure that you won't plot something I can't foresee. What if you lash out violently?"
This... Tang Hao's eyes flickered, at a loss for words.
Qin Xiao's words hit the nail on the head. Given the chance, Tang Hao would certainly enact two acts to make Qin Xiao regret, like if he couldn't kill Qin Xiao, killing his woman seemed like a good outlet for his anger.
"So, what do you intend to do to me?" he asked quietly.
