The door opened, and Li Yu followed behind Lou Gao as they stepped out.

"Titan, you old guy, what are you doing here?" Lou Gao immediately saw the burly Titan.

He walked up to Titan and knocked on his body, as if tapping on some rare metal.

"..."

Titan let Lou Gao knock on him, speaking without a care, "You old fool, I've been here for almost half a month, and you still haven't shown up."

"Really?" Lou Gao raised an eyebrow, turning his gaze to Si Long, "Si Long, what's going on? You didn't even tell me the old gorilla was here..."

Before Lou Gao could finish, he stopped and looked at Si Long in confusion, "What's going on?"

At this moment, Si Long stood with a blank look, showing no reaction even when his master appeared.

It was as if the world had turned upside down.

However, Lou Gao knew his disciple's nature, so he didn't immediately slap him but instead looked to Titan for an explanation.

Titan shrugged.

Just as he was about to explain, Si Long suddenly spoke in a daze, "Master, Lord Tang Hao... he's dead!"

Li Yu raised an eyebrow and looked at Titan.

Was it just now that Si Long learned of this news?

And it seemed that Lou Gao didn't know about it either.

Titan shrugged, indicating that he was also helpless.

Lou Gao froze for a moment, then sneered, "Tang Hao is dead? What nonsense is this? Who could kill him?"

Li Yu expression grew more strange.

Lou Gao's laughter faltered, his gaze becoming fixed as he stammered, "Is it... really true?"

"Yes, really," Titan nodded.

When Lou Gao saw Titan's calm expression, his tone didn't sound like he was lying, and he froze.

He understood the relationship between Titan and Tang Hao.

He knew Titan harbored hatred for Tang Hao, but he also understood that even though Titan hated him, Tang Hao death would still stir something in Titan's heart.

Now, Titan's calm demeanor proved that he had truly let go of the past.

Lou Gao didn't know whether to feel happy for Titan or sad for Tang Hao.

Tang Hao, a god-level blacksmith, although he never officially joined the Blacksmith Association, could still be considered a member.

This was one of the reasons Gengxin City had remained standing for so long.

"Who killed him?" Lou Gao's voice was tinged with a hint of bitterness.

Tang Hao had once been guided by him, so there was some emotional attachment there.

Titan's expression turned strange.

"I killed him," Li Yu voice rang out flatly.

Lou Gao and Si Long both froze, then turned to look at Li Yu.

Shock, anger, confusion, and bewilderment swirled in their hearts, eventually turning into a single question from Si Long, "Why did you do that?"

Li Yu glanced at him. He hadn't intended to answer, but remembering how he had tricked Lou Gao earlier and taken so much from him, and knowing that Lou Gao probably wanted to hear the answer, he answered calmly, "He tried to kill me, so I killed him."

Without waiting for their reaction, he continued, "Now that everything here is settled, Senior Lou, I'll take my leave. When I set out, I'll come to pick you up."

With that, Li Yu took a step forward and vanished without a trace.

Lou Gao and Si Long stared at the spot where Li Yu had disappeared, stunned.

"What realm does this person possess?" Lou Gao asked Titan, his face serious.

"During the final of the Soul Master Tournament, she was an Eight-Ring Spirit Douluo," Titan answered honestly.

"An Eight-Ring Spirit Douluo could kill Lord Tang Hao?" Si Long stared at Titan in disbelief.

Lou Gao was equally shocked.

"To be precise, it wasn't a kill," Titan shook his head.

Lou Gao and Si Long looked at each other, their expressions showing they had already guessed this much. But soon, their faces froze.

Because Titan added, "It was a Instan kill."

He paused for a moment before continuing, "At the time, Clear Sky Sect dispatched five Title Douluo, including the 96th-level Super Douluo, the current sect leader Tang Xiao, 95th-level Tang Hao, and four other elders around level 93.

Five people came together, but they were no match for Li Yu.

Li Yu just raised his hand and suppressed them. They had no chance to fight back."

"How is that possible? An Eight-Ring Spirit Douluo can have such strength?" Lou Gao and Si Long were even more shocked.

"But that's the truth!" Titan shook his head with a deep sigh.

He then added, "What's even more shocking is, do you know what kind of soul ring configuration that Li Yu has?"

"Hmm?" Lou Gao and Si Long both froze, and Si Long cautiously asked, "Does she have a 100,000-year soul ring?"

Titan nodded but then shook his head, saying, "Yes and no."

"???"

"Her soul ring configuration is: ice blue, dark red, red, red, red, silver gray, translucent white, and red."

"!!!"

"One more thing, Li Yu is about to marry Prince Xue Qinghe of Heaven Dou in about half a month. In my opinion, the Blacksmith Association should prepare a congratulatory gift."

"..."

Lou Gao turned to look at the room behind him, remaining silent.

…

After Li Yu left, he didn't head straight back to Heaven Dou City.

Instead, he stayed in a large mountain range.

[Yi] landed in his palm.

Then with a thought, [Yi] melted and began to grow, quickly transforming into a dark gray long sword.

It emanated a restrained aura, appearing ordinary.

But as Li Yu held it, his eyes narrowed slightly, and soul power was injected into it.

Whir~

The long sword instantly turned dark red, and a terrifying aura spread from it.

"Activate!"

Li Yu softly shouted, then swung the sword down.

A dark red sword aura shot out, striking the mountain peak not far away.

Boom!

The mountain exploded, rocks collapsing.

Li Yu thought again, and the sword in his hand split, transforming into dozens of dark red flying swords that hovered around him.

With another thought, the flying swords merged, and a huge hammer appeared.

Next came a shield, a spear, a broadsword, a whip...

Various weapons could form instantly at the mere thought of them.

Finally, [Yi] melted again in his hand and flowed across his body, forming a dark red battle armor.

As soul power poured into it, his aura surged, and although his soul power was only at level 91, it felt as though he had reached the peak of the Ninth Ring.

With a subtle motion, a pair of wings of light appeared behind him, and with a gentle flap, they vanished into a blur.

When he reappeared, he was already several hundred meters away.

"This has the faint effect of Battle Armor," Li Yu muttered to himself.

But he understood that this was far superior to any Battle Armor.

Battle Armor still required complex formations to be inscribed and was a difficult process to craft.

But [Yi] was different.

It was as if it was born with this ability, with no inscriptions or complex patterns.

There was no manufacturing process. All it needed was rare metals and soul bones to keep integrating.

"Not bad, but it's not of much help to me. Turning it into weapons and such is quite useful."

[Yi] once again turned into a block and landed in Li Yu hand before disappearing.

He controlled spatial elements, so traveling, moving, and even battling with spatial elements were far more practical for him.

"Next, I'll go find you!"

Li Yu raised his hand, and a Blue Silver Emperor leaf appeared, which had formed after Ah Yin's consciousness dissipated. It would guide him to Ah Yin's current "body."

After a brief sense of the location, Li Yu stepped forward and vanished again.
