Yu Xiaogang arrived outside Spirit Hall.

He looked at Spirit Hall's towering gates without the slightest fear. Instead, he was extremely excited.

Though it was his first time here, he felt that going in and out of these gates wouldn't be difficult, and would even be easier than coming and going from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

This is the place. As long as I can meet Spirit Hall's Saintess, my fate can change, and I can shake off the name of trash!

But he had only taken a few steps when the guards stopped him.

"Who goes there?! Leave at once!"

Yu Xiaogang frowned. "I am the foremost authority on Soul Master theory. You may call me Grandmaster. Now get out of my way. I want to see your Saintess!"

The two guards raised their eyebrows.

Strange things happened every year, but this year had seen especially many.

There was no need to mention Senior Lu. Just standing there, he made it hard to breathe. He was a real big shot.

You're just a fucking greenhorn. Never mind what kind of bullshit Grandmaster you claim to be, does someone like you deserve to see Spirit Hall's Saintess?

Under the two guards' scrutiny, Yu Xiaogang felt he was losing face. Humiliated and furious, he said, "Are you going to move or not?!"

The guard sneered. "Boy, you should be glad our Great Enshrined told us to win people over with virtue. If you know what's good for you, scram!"

Yu Xiaogang shouted angrily, "How dare you! I'm here to save your Saintess! With Spirit Hall so closed off, she probably has trouble even going outside, doesn't she? Only I can give her freedom and make her a true genius!"

The other guard could hardly take it anymore. He raised his hand and slapped Yu Xiaogang across the face. "Where did this toad come from, daring to covet Her Highness the Saintess? Bark like a dog again, and I'll take your dog life!"

Qian Daoliu had been watching from the shadows all along. When he heard that Yu Xiaogang had come looking for Bibi Dong, his heart tightened.

Yu Xiaogang's words in particular made him suspect that Yu Xiaogang had very likely received guidance from the mysterious expert too. Otherwise, how could he have come looking for Bibi Dong with such absolute certainty?

After taking the slap, Yu Xiaogang felt his head buzzing.

I'm looked down on in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, humiliated by my own clansmen, and beaten by my elders.

I fucking left the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and I'm still getting humiliated and beaten.

Then didn't I leave for nothing?

He slowly got to his feet. "You..."

After saying just one word, Yu Xiaogang realized something was wrong. Why were there hard little stones in his mouth?

He spat forcefully, and two molars fell to the ground. One whole side of his face had already swollen up.

"You actually dared to hit me!" Yu Xiaogang flew into a rage. "I'm the sweetheart of your Saintess, your future Pope, and you dare treat me like this? You're courting death!"

Yu Xiaogang charged forward.

Yu Xiaogang leaped into the air.

Yu Xiaogang went flying.

The guard's face twitched. "Fuck, he's not even level thirty. Turns out he's an idiot."

Before long, the city's residents had gathered outside Spirit Hall, surrounding the entrance so tightly that not even a drop of water could squeeze through.

"Who's that buzz-cut guy? He actually dared to cause trouble at Spirit Hall's gates?!"

"No idea. The guard said he's an idiot."

"So he's an idiot..."

The dense clamor of discussion battered Yu Xiaogang's fragile pride. He slowly stood up, his head hanging low.

The other guard felt a little uneasy watching him. "What's this idiot going to do now? Why don't we just throw him in Spirit Hall's prison?"

The guard who had hit him laughed. "Are you scared?"

"Who the fuck wouldn't be? The Great Enshrined just said we weren't allowed to treat human lives like grass. What do we do if this thing dies here? Let's throw him in prison."

"Here's a little-known fact: Her Highness the Saintess ordered all of Spirit Hall's secret chambers sealed."

"Because of that mysterious Secret Chamber Douluo? Speaking of which, who exactly is this Secret Chamber Douluo?"

"How would I know? I'm just a gate guard."

Suddenly, Yu Xiaogang's shoulders began to shake, and a low laugh came from him.

The people around him instinctively took a few steps back when they heard it.

Yu Xiaogang laughed. "You really don't know who you've offended?!"

"N-no, we don't."

"You actually don't know? I already told you, I'm Grandmaster! Grandmaster! You trash Soul Masters will all end up beneath my feet sooner or later!"

His words startled the two guards into checking Yu Xiaogang's presence again.

He's only level twenty. What are you pretending for?!

Qian Daoliu, standing nearby, couldn't listen any longer. He was already certain that someone must be guiding Yu Xiaogang from behind the scenes.

Although he didn't know why the boy was so determined to see Bibi Dong, no matter how he looked at it, this fellow couldn't be allowed near Dong'er!

He slowly emerged from the crowd. "You dare make a commotion at Spirit Hall's gates and spread rumors that tarnish the Saintess's good name. You have some nerve!"

The two guards immediately saluted. "Greetings, Great Enshrined!"

"Well done." Qian Daoliu nodded in approval. "But in the future, you mustn't resort to violence so readily. Don't accidentally hurt the people who come to Spirit Hall to seek redress!"

The guards placed their hands over their chests. "Understood!"

The onlookers also began sizing up Spirit Hall's most mysterious Great Enshrined.

"The Great Enshrined looks so young, and he has such an upright bearing. No wonder Spirit Hall awakens Martial Souls for ordinary people like us for free. They really are good people!"

"I heard the Great Enshrined is very powerful. This idiot dared to cause trouble at Spirit Hall, so he's definitely dead today."

"Good riddance. He came right to their gates to spread rumors about Her Highness the Saintess. If Spirit Hall doesn't beat someone like that to death, I'll look down on them."

Qian Daoliu looked at Yu Xiaogang.

It seems everyone wants this boy beaten to death.

Then I'll take care of this hidden danger for Dong'er!

He raised his hand. "Boy, Spirit Hall is not a place where you can run wild as you please, and its Saintess is certainly not someone you can offend. Go repent in hell!"

Without using his Martial Soul, Qian Daoliu brought his palm down. The immense pressure instantly left Yu Xiaogang unable even to speak, let alone announce his identity and call for help.

Just then, the people from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan finally arrived. "Senior, show mercy! He's the eldest young master of our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!"

Qian Daoliu paid them no heed. He brought his palm down, and the impact of his Soul Power left blood streaming from all seven of Yu Xiaogang's orifices. He immediately stopped breathing.

"E-eldest young master!" A member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan wailed, watching helplessly as Yu Xiaogang was killed.

He cradled Yu Xiaogang's corpse and looked up at Qian Daoliu. "Your Spirit Hall actually dared to kill the eldest young master of our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. We'll remember this!"

Qian Daoliu didn't think the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would go to war with Spirit Hall over a piece of trash, much less when Spirit Hall had right on its side this time.

He flicked his sleeve. "Scram, before I decide to start a massacre."

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clansman's heart trembled. Facing Qian Daoliu, he didn't dare continue making threats and slunk away with Yu Xiaogang in his arms.

As they were leaving the crowd, Qian Daoliu suddenly said, "Spirit Hall won't interfere in whatever your Upper Three Sects want to do, but you'd best not let Spirit Hall catch you violating the order of the Soul Master World!"

The people from the other two sects trembled as well. They didn't know who this man was, but the shudder that came from their very souls made them understand.

If they defied this mysterious powerhouse now, they would surely die!

Qian Daoliu returned to Spirit Hall in a good mood. Now the hidden danger in Dong'er's future had been dealt with.

Sure enough, I had to come out and have a look!

The people from the Upper Three Sects had returned to the tavern, but the atmosphere was now extremely oppressive.

The eldest young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was dead. Although the one who had died was trash, he was still a member of the Yu family with an extremely pure bloodline.

The man from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect cupped his hands. "My condolences. I should return and report the situation to the sect master."

The man from the Clear Sky Sect also cupped his hands. He had more on his mind than the other two.

Wasn't Spirit Hall's Great Enshrined that top-tier Angel Douluo whose strength was on par with the old sect master's? I never expected him to be alive, much less to have come out of seclusion!

This news was more important than any Secret Chamber Douluo.

In the end, the man from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan also sighed and prepared to return with Yu Xiaogang's corpse to report what had happened.

In the carriage, someone asked, "Boss, now that the eldest young master is gone, we'll definitely be in deep trouble when we get back..."

"You want to run? Where could you run to? Do you really think the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has no intelligence network?!"

"But... I can't accept being punished over a piece of trash like him!"

They all looked at Yu Xiaogang's corpse and cursed him inwardly for giving them no peace even in death.

But just then, Yu Xiaogang, who had been dead, suddenly opened his eyes and sat bolt upright.

"Holy shit, the corpse came back to life!"

Yu Xiaogang was even more shocked than they were.

He looked down at his hands, and after a moment, he burst into a wild laugh. "I've been reborn!"
