Tang Hao and Tang Xiao Descend the Mountain!

Ghost Douluo?

The four of them looked at one another, genuinely uncertain for a moment.

If it really was Ghost Douluo, then it was indeed possible.

Ghost Douluo's concealment abilities were currently unrivaled. With their strength, there was no way they could see through them.

"But how did Ghost Douluo know we had these things?"

"And why would he risk making an enemy of the Clear Sky Sect just to steal them?"

"Most likely, it wasn't him."

Bai He forcefully suppressed the rage in his heart, doing his best to calm himself before analyzing the matter.

"Hmph, whether it was him or not, report this to the Clear Sky Sect first. The Clear Sky Sect will definitely stand up for us!!"

Old Ape Titan snorted coldly. With the Clear Sky Sect behind them, what was there to fear!

From beginning to end, he had been the Clear Sky Sect's dog. Naturally, he regarded the Clear Sky Sect above all else. Whenever anything happened, of course he had to report it to the Clear Sky Sect.

"Hmph, let's go. We'll head to the Clear Sky Sect first and tell the Sect Master about this."

Yang Wudi snorted, holding the books. After discussing it, the four of them headed for the Clear Sky Sect!

This was a major matter, after all. Yang Wudi's alchemy skills were extremely important to the Clear Sky Sect, and Bai He was also related to the Clear Sky Sect.

Technically speaking, Bai He was Tang Hao's uncle. The Clear Sky Sect would surely help.

With that relationship, even if they did not help, they would at least make some gesture.

The four hurried toward the Clear Sky Sect.

On the other side, after succeeding, the Ninja Soldiers swiftly headed toward the hotel where Xu Xin was staying.

They knelt respectfully before Xu Xin for the entire night. Only after Xu Xin woke up did they present the items to him.

When Xu Xin woke up and saw this scene, he was completely dumbfounded. Th-This... these truly were Ninja Soldiers who knew how to live the good life.

This service attitude was exactly right.

As expected of them.

Xu Xin slowly rose and took the two books from their hands.

One was an Immortal Herb illustrated guide, while the other contained the Breaking Clan's alchemy techniques.

"Finally."

As he gently opened the Immortal Herb guide, Xu Xin discovered that it contained countless Immortal Herbs. Some were not even found within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. It was already quite comprehensive.

On Douluo Continent, apart from Yang Wudi, only Ju Hua Guan possessed something like this. He just did not know whether Chrysanthemum Douluo's Immortal Herb guide was complete.

But it was presumably not lacking either.

Xu Xin quickly flipped through it once and committed most of its contents to memory.

He then opened the alchemy techniques again, gave them a rough read, and handed them over to the Ninja Soldiers.

He did not need to learn them himself. The Ninja Soldiers could learn them—they were capable of anything.

Once they learned these things, would it not be easy?

"Take the contents of this book to the First Elder and Second Elder. Learn it together."

"As for the Immortal Herb guide, give it to the First Elder and let her handle it herself."

Xu Xin spoke calmly. He was the Hall Master, so these matters should be left to those beneath him.

After receiving the order, the Ninja Soldier burrowed into the floor and vanished.

Meanwhile, the Ninja Soldier holding the box containing the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng remained kneeling respectfully at the side.

Xu Xin opened it and took a look. There did not seem to be any problem. It was a bright red ginseng, and the energy within it was remarkably dense.

"Take it to the First Elder. Just have her nurture it properly."

Xu Xin did not know whether this thing could be revived if it were placed in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Still, it was worth trying. If it failed, they could simply preserve it carefully.

That Ninja Soldier vanished as well.

Very soon, another Ninja Soldier appeared before Xu Xin and respectfully reported something.

"Tang Hao and Tang Xiao only just descended the mountain?"

Xu Xin was somewhat surprised.

If they were only descending the mountain now, it would surely be quite a while before they encountered A Yin.

Xu Xin remembered that Qian Renxue was nine years older than Tang San. In other words, if things continued according to the current course, it would not be long before Bibi Dong was confined in Qian Xunji's secret chamber, then went to the City of Slaughter, and finally emerged to kill Qian Xunji and begin her divine trial.

The timing made sense as well. According to the original timeline, Bibi Dong had already met Yu Xiao Gang by now. Before long, they would become lovey-dovey, and afterward she would go to Spirit Hall...

But everything was in chaos now. He had disrupted these events, and everything had changed. Things would no longer proceed according to the original timeline.

He just did not know when that bastard Qian Xunji would start having wicked thoughts... He still needed to be prepared.

At least for now, Bibi Dong was safe.

There was no need to worry.

After calming himself, Xu Xin stopped dwelling on it. He would take things one step at a time. With the Ninja Soldiers around, he could still escape when the time came.

The Ghost Shadow Legion was Xu Xin's greatest support.

Today, Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong were once again competing in the Soul Fighting Tournament, while Xu Xin did not go and instead cultivated in his room.

His abilities were special, making him unsuitable for participating in such events.

Meanwhile, the Tang Hao and Tang Xiao brothers had left Clear Sky Sect.

"Big Brother, do you think Ghost Douluo really stole Uncle's things?"

Tang Hao was high-spirited, completely unlike the slovenly and dejected figure from the original story.

Tang Xiao, on the other hand, was more refined and steady.

"Probably not. A dignified Title Douluo would not be that stupid. Wouldn't that be openly making an enemy of Clear Sky Sect?"

"Someone clearly framed him."

"Our grandfather is renowned far and wide. Do you think Spirit Hall would be foolish enough to make an enemy of us?"

Tang Xiao laughed and analyzed the matter.

Clear Sky Sect's greatest backing was Tang Chen, the renowned Level 99 Limit Douluo and the strongest man on land.

Even Qian Daoliu had once been defeated by Tang Chen's hammer. (Qian Daoliu had clearly held back and had not even borrowed divine power.)

It was precisely because of this that everyone in Clear Sky Sect considered themselves superior to others. In their eyes, Clear Sky Sect was the greatest, lofty and untouchable.

They did not even place Spirit Hall in their eyes.

Every one of them held their heads high, always believing others to be beneath them.

"Hahaha, Big Brother is right. With Grandfather here, a mere Spirit Hall is nothing to fear."

Tang Hao laughed heartily, fully agreeing. They were from Clear Sky Sect, the number one sect in the world. What was there to fear from a mere Spirit Hall? Their strongest expert had even lost to his grandfather.

What was there left to worry about?

"But Big Brother, how are we supposed to investigate this? We don't have a single clue."

Tang Hao did not like using his brain. Things like this were the most troublesome, so it was better to leave them to his big brother.

Tang Xiao slowly took a book from his Soul Tool. "Elder Yang gave us this. We can trace it through this."

The book in Tang Xiao's hand was precisely the one left behind by the Ninja Soldiers.

"Big Brother, it's just a useless old book. What do we need it for?"

"Are we really supposed to search for a needle in the sea?"

Tang Hao did not even spare the book a glance. There were so many people on the Douluo Continent—who could possibly know who this thing belonged to? How could such a coincidence happen?

"It has a scent on it. We can catch a few soul beasts skilled at tracking scents and have them lead us, can't we?"

"Even if they can't find the person, they can at least locate the general area."

"Second Brother, don't always think of solving everything with force. Sometimes, you need to use your brain."

Tang Xiao spoke earnestly. With his younger brother's temperament, he truly did not know how much trouble Tang Hao would cause in the future.

As his elder brother... sigh, forget it. This was his little brother, after all...
