C8 Challenge?

"Do you want to awaken another Fate Soul in the Boundless World?" Tang Ao muttered to himself, thinking about something else.

In the end, he gave up on this idea. Although his soul was not something that ordinary people could compare to, it was not something that could be easily accessed from the Boundless World.

After understanding that the Ancient God's Art of Lifting the Heavens could turn Fate Souls from nothing into reality, he had to treasure every decision he made.

Although he could open thousands of Fate Souls, there were only 365 Fate Souls that could be transformed by the Ancient God's Art of Lifting the Heavens. It just happened to correspond to the 365 acupoints in his body.

Moreover, with his current strength, he should not be able to enter the Sixth Heaven of the Boundless World. Therefore, he decided not to awaken any Fate Souls for the time being.

In the future, he did not know what kind of fate awaited him. Therefore, Tang Ao had to make a careful decision from now on.

His mind was in turmoil. Following Tang Ao's thought, a bloodied pike appeared above his head.

The pike was covered in blood, and the shaft was already rusty. However, the sharp blade of the pike was flickering with a sinister light, and a strong killing aura pervaded the surroundings, causing people to shudder.

"It's really like that. The Ancient God's Art of Lifting the Heavens can materialize a Fate Soul!" Looking at the Hundred War Spear Soul in front of him, Tang Ao could clearly feel that this spear was much more real than when he had just obtained it!

Controlling the Hundred War Spear Soul to move slowly, Tang Ao stretched out his hand and held it in his palm. At this moment, the Hundred War Spear Soul's texture clearly appeared in his heart.

"Today, I have gained a lot. Let's stop here!" After putting away the Fate Soul, Tang Ao lazily laid down on the grass. Looking up at the sky, the sun was already high up in the sky.

Unknowingly, it was already noon!

"I originally wanted to be a mortal and experience all the pleasures of life. However, the villainous heavens, you just can't stand me!" Tang Ao said helplessly, but he did not have a trace of anger or unwillingness.

In the afternoon, Tang Ao left the City Lord's Mansion and strolled alone in the city.

Tang Ao thought of the girl in his heart — Ru Er. The scenes of daily interaction were clearly reflected in his mind.

"Brother Tang, come and chase me!" In his memories, a beautiful girl was running in the forest. Her white clothes were as white as snow, and her three thousand black hair moved with the wind.

"Brother Tang, it's fine if you don't know martial arts. In the future, Ru Er will protect you!"

"Brother Tang, do you love me?"

"Brother Tang, I want to marry you!"

The interactions from the past were vivid in his mind, as if it had happened yesterday.

However, Tang Ao never would have thought that it was precisely the girl who wanted to marry him that he swore to protect her for the rest of his life.

That pure smile, that graceful figure, would always appear in Tang Ao's mind.

"Perhaps you have no choice, but … let the past go with the wind!" Tang Ao took a deep breath. When he saw the path he was going to take, the pressure in his heart was swept away.

"In this life, I will only pursue the peak of the Martial arts!" Walking among the endless stream of people, Tang Ao was not outstanding, but his eyes were filled with determination, which told him that he was different.

"Gulp …"

Tang Ao's stomach began to growl. Only then did he remember that half a day had passed, and he had yet to eat.

Walking past a street, Tang Ao saw a steamed bun shop with a fragrant smell. It was already packed with people. He could not resist the temptation and directly walked in.

"Have you heard? Son of the mayor Tang Ao actually went to the Qin Family to cause trouble yesterday!"

"Not only that, this guy's cultivation has increased by leaps and bounds in a few days. It seems like he has injured a few of the best guards of the Qin Family!"

"The son of the mayor is challenging the number one family of Bluestone City, the Qin Family. There really is a good show to watch!"

As soon as Tang Ao sat down, all kinds of discussions came from his ears. He ignored them and ordered two steamed buns, then began to wolf them down.

"Tang Ao, you thief. My third young miss, Qin Yueshuang, has ordered that tomorrow at the stage of Bluestone City, do you dare to accept the challenge?"

Suddenly, a loud voice sounded from the street, followed by a wave of noise.

Tang Ao suddenly frowned and looked out of the window.

He saw a group of people approaching from afar. There were about ten people, and one of them held a large flag with Qin Yueshuang's name and a bright red palm print on it.

The Challenge Flag was a tool used by cultivators of Xuanhuang Continent to challenge each other. Once both sides reached an agreement, they would write their names on the Challenge Flag and press their palms on it. Then, they could spar on the stage. Most importantly, once they were on the stage, it meant that they would be responsible for their own life and death.

Once someone died, the family would take revenge in secret, and they would be severely punished. This was also one of the reasons why the stage was built!

"Tang Ao, little thief, do you dare to accept my challenge on the stage of the Bluestone City tomorrow?" The young man holding the challenge flag shouted again.

Tang Ao ignored them. After they were far away, he lowered his head and started wolfing down the food. For him, filling his stomach was the most important thing!

"I heard that the Third Young Miss of the Qin Clan had already fused with the Destiny Stone last night. It seems like there is a reason for the news!"

"Last night, he fused with the Destiny Stone, and today, he has already written a challenge letter. It seems that the Qin Family is determined to win, and they must kill Tang Ao!"

"Sigh, I really don't understand. Although Tang Ao is the son of the mayor, he is still a mortal. Why would he …"

"You don't know yet, I heard …"

"Shh! Quiet!"

Inside the bun shop, a Young people was about to say something, but was interrupted by a middle-aged man sitting at the side. He looked around in panic.

Tang Ao snorted coldly in his heart. It seemed that there was no hiding the truth. The matter of the Qin Family framing him had leaked a little bit of information.

However, the reputation of a person was like the shadow of a tree. The Qin Family was not someone that an ordinary person could afford to offend. Even if someone knew the inside story, so what? No one would offend a large force for him!

"I wonder if Tang Ao will accept the challenge!"

"Probably not. No matter how Zhang Jin Tang Ao is, how could Qin Yueshuang's Dao Body of Heaven's Mandate be comparable to an ordinary person?"

"That's right. The Dao Body of Heaven's Mandate is too rare. In addition, Qin Yueshuang is already talented, and her strength is strong. I'm afraid that even if Tang Ao goes, he will only be courting death."

...

After leaving the steamed bun shop, Tang Ao walked on the street and faintly heard the Young people from the Qin Family shouting with the challenge flag in his hand.

"Not only do they want to challenge me, they also want to humiliate my family!" Tang Ao sneered. How could he not understand the meaning of the other party's actions?

If they wanted to challenge him, they could just send someone to the City Lord's Mansion to deliver the letter. Why did they have to shout all over the street? Their purpose was to let everyone in the city know.

If Tang Ao didn't go, he would definitely be cursed as a coward and a traitor. And if he went, in the eyes of the children of the Qin Family, Qin Yueshuang who had fused with the Dao Body of Heaven's Mandate would definitely win. Therefore, no matter what, Tang Ao would not end up in a good situation.

"They secretly harmed others, but now they want to catch the thief. Qin Family, oh Qin Family, you guys really don't have any face at all!" Tang Ao muttered to himself indifferently.

Tang Ao was not angry. In his previous life, he had seen too many people who were more despicable and shameless than the Qin Family. It could be said that he had long become accustomed to the existence of these people.

Tang Ao did not leave, but followed behind the Qin Family's group from afar. However, what surprised him was that in just an hour, the news of the Third Young Miss of the Qin Clan, Qin Yueshuang, challenging Tang Ao had almost spread throughout the entire Bluestone City.

Now, wherever Tang Ao went, everyone was discussing the matter between the two of them. Although many things were different, there was one thing that everyone agreed on.

That was that Tang Ao was in danger this time!
