The Truth Behind Spirit Hall's Plan to Unify the Continent—Was Tang San a Bastard?

And the simulation continued.

[You never expected the teacher you had once respected and loved to use such a method to forcibly tear you and Xiaogang apart. You felt incomparable pain, resentment, and fury... You cursed loudly, telling the beast before you to die.]

[But he merely coldly told you to immediately drive Yu Xiaogang out of Spirit City, or he would personally kill him!]

[Faced with the man's threats, you were filled with resentment and anger, but even more so with fear. You did not dare disobey.]

[After being released, you left the secret chamber, tidied yourself up, and found Yu Xiaogang. Suppressing the pain and sorrow in your heart, you pretended to be cold as you said, "Trash like you, do you really think I would like you? You are not worthy of being with me at all. Get out of Spirit City right now!"]

[Faced with your insults, Yu Xiaogang's face turned pale. He wore an expression of utter pain, then rushed out the door without looking back and fled Spirit City.]

[Several months later, you suddenly began retching frequently for no reason. A physician confirmed that you were pregnant.]

[You had wanted to die along with the bastard in your womb, but Qian Xunji threatened you. If you dared seek death, he would find Yu Xiaogang and kill him.]

[You were furious and nearly driven mad, yet you still did not dare disobey.]

[Because your beloved Xiaogang was the only light and attachment left in your heart.]

No! This wasn't real!

Upon discovering that this was truly how she had been born, Qian Renxue's face went pale. She felt unbearable pain and despair, nearly collapsing.

She could not accept that she had come into this world this way.

So her birth had been a mistake from the very beginning?!

[Ten months later, you finally gave birth to a baby girl. Qian Daoliu named her Qian Renxue, meaning pure, aloof snow atop the thousand-ren peaks. He hoped she would be as noble as ice and snow in the future, as well as intelligent and quick-witted.]

[But you felt only utter disgust toward this. You found it laughable beyond measure. In your eyes, the birth of this bastard was darkness and error itself—the purest black. Noble? Heh heh!]

Seeing Bibi Dong's thoughts, Qian Renxue felt an intense stab of pain in her heart.

So Bibi Dong despised and rejected me so much, calling me a bastard, because of this?

But I had no choice in my own birth.

What right did you have to place all the blame on me?

Could I have chosen how I was born?

Besides, Yu Xiaogang was from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect. He was a hypocritical, shameless, stupid, wicked piece of trash who only knew how to flatter others with empty words.

As the Saintess of Spirit Hall, you would rather betray Spirit Hall just to be with trash like him.

Did you have no fault at all?!

[After Qian Renxue was born, you threw her to Qian Xunji and Qian Daoliu to raise.]

[You chose to watch the child with cold eyes, refusing to care for her in the slightest.]

[Only under Qian Xunji's threats, and for the safety of your beloved Xiaogang, were you forced to marry him and give Qian Renxue a legitimate birth.]

[Because you did not wish to see that damned beast, nor the child who symbolized your dark and painful past.]

[After learning of a place called the City of Slaughter, you found Qian Xunji and said you wanted to go there to train.]

[At first, Qian Xunji refused.]

[But after you persisted, and because you had already given birth to Qian Renxue and your greatest value had vanished, Qian Xunji finally agreed.]

[After arriving at the City of Slaughter, you successfully achieved one hundred consecutive victories in the Hell Slaughter Arena and gained the qualification to challenge Hell Road. As long as you could successfully pass Hell Road, you would obtain a Divine Slaughter's Domain known as a Talent Domain.]

[You already possessed the Twin Martial Souls, the Death Spider Emperor and the Soul Devouring Spider Emperor. Of them, the Death Spider Emperor had the Talent Domain—Death Domain—but the Soul Devouring Spider Emperor did not.]

[Now, as long as you passed Hell Road, the Soul Devouring Spider Emperor would gain a Talent Domain as well.]

[In the end, you successfully passed Hell Road. But after receiving the Divine Slaughter's Domain and leaving the City of Slaughter, a mysterious, chilling female voice sounded in your mind.]

[It turned out that you had gained the attention of a God known as the Rakshasa God. As long as you killed a Soul Master who possessed the Six-winged Angel Martial Soul and devoured his soul, you could begin the Rakshasa Nine Trials.]

[As long as you passed the Rakshasa Nine Trials, you could inherit the Rakshasa God's divine position and become the next Rakshasa God.]

[You were incomparably exhilarated and excited by this, because you had long wanted to kill that damned beast. If you could devour his soul, begin the Rakshasa Nine Trials, and step on his bones to climb higher, that would be even better.]

[In the future, if possible, you also wanted to usurp the position of Pope of Spirit Hall, lead Spirit Hall into becoming enemies with the entire continent, and make Spirit Hall and the continent slaughter each other, thereby taking revenge on the Qian family, revenge on Spirit Hall, and revenge on the entire continent!]

[You wanted the whole world to taste the pain you had suffered!]

This woman was completely insane!

Seeing Bibi Dong's frenzied thoughts in the simulation, Qian Renxue was utterly enraged.

So this woman's reason for making me replace Xue Qinghe, usurp the Heaven Dou Empire's Imperial Throne, and lead Spirit Hall to unify the continent was to turn Spirit Hall into an enemy of the entire continent, thereby taking revenge on our Qian Family, revenge on Spirit Hall, and revenge on the whole world.

But based on the futures from the previous simulations, this woman must have successfully begun the Rakshasa Nine Trials.

Whose Six-Winged Angel Soul Master soul had she devoured?

Thinking of how both she and Grandfather had always remained alive...

It went without saying whose Six-Winged Angel Soul Master soul this woman had devoured.

Yet Qian Renxue still clung to a sliver of hope.

Father had been killed by Tang Hao.

This woman must have devoured Father's soul only after he had been brought back to Spirit City and died from his severe injuries, right?

[After training in the City of Slaughter, you returned to Spirit City.]

[By then, your daughter Qian Renxue had grown up. Since other children all had fathers and mothers, Qian Renxue was very attached to you. She desperately hoped to receive your love and care, to be held in your arms.]

[But when you saw Qian Renxue, your feelings were complicated.]

[On one hand, this child had been carried by you for ten months and born from your body. It was impossible to say that you had absolutely no feelings for her.]

[But on the other hand, you had given birth to this child only because Qian Xunji had become the Secret Chamber Douluo. This child's existence represented your greatest pain and despair, and you could not accept it.]

[In the end, the disgust and rejection in your heart won out.]

[You cursed her as a bastard and told her to stay away from you.]

[Faced with your curses, disgust, and rejection, Qian Renxue felt deeply wronged and heartbroken. Yet she only wondered whether she had not done well enough, and she still hoped to gain your approval.]

Seeing her former thoughts in the simulation, Qian Renxue curled her lips into a bitter smile, feeling that her past self had been utterly ridiculous.

Even her birth had been filled with original sin.

No matter how much she tried to please this woman, this woman could never accept her!

Yet when she thought about how this woman had not been completely without feelings for her in the simulation...

And how, in the previous simulations, this woman had ultimately died protecting her by blocking Tang San's fatal strike...

Qian Renxue's feelings became extremely complicated.

[In order to take revenge on the Qian family, revenge on Spirit Hall, and revenge on the world, you proposed a plan for Qian Renxue to replace Xue Qinghe and usurp the Heaven Dou Empire, allowing Spirit Hall's Soul Master legions and the Heaven Dou Empire's army to unite and conquer the continent.]

[Qian Daoliu and Qian Xunji had originally both opposed it, but you took advantage of Qian Renxue's desire to gain your approval and deliberately provoked her.]

[Under Qian Renxue's insistence, Qian Daoliu and Qian Xunji both agreed to your plan.]

[Just then, you suddenly learned a piece of information: Tang Hao, the most talented genius of the current generation of the Clear Sky Sect, actually had a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast Transformation by his side, and the two had already become husband and wife.]

What!

Upon seeing this information, Qian Renxue's eyes widened in disbelief.

Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao's wife was not human?!

If Tang Hao's wife had been a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast Transformation...

Then judging by the timing, Tang San had surely been born to Tang Hao and this Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast Transformation.

Then Tang San was actually a bastard?!
