Meanwhile, Bibi Dong, dressed in black with a hood concealing her face, appeared in Nuoding City and learned that Yu Xiaogang was at Nuoding Academy.
She went to Nuoding Academy, only to find it empty. Yu Xiaogang and Tang San had already gone to Soul Hunting Forest.
Bibi Dong did not wait and headed straight for Soul Hunting Forest as well.
Bibi Dong was still very fast. Just as Yu Xiaogang and Tang San arrived at Soul Hunting Forest, she caught up with them.
It was at that moment that Tang Hao leaked his aura and lured Bibi Dong away.
Both of them wore black clothes and hoods. Anyone unaware of the situation might have thought some organization was meeting in secret.
"Who are you? Why did you lure me here?"
Bibi Dong was the first to speak.
"You'd better not set your sights on certain people. This is my warning."
"You're threatening me? Heh, I hate being threatened more than anything!"
Bibi Dong attacked without hesitation. Purple Black Evil Qi swirled around her body as sharp Spider Spears shot straight toward Tang Hao's vital points.
Tang Hao did not dare let down his guard. He summoned his martial soul, the Clear Sky Hammer, blocked Bibi Dong's attack, then swung back and forced her away with a single blow.
"The Clear Sky Hammer? You're Tang Hao! Interesting. To be honest, I should thank you."
Bibi Dong removed her hood, revealing her mature and ravishing face.
"Bibi Dong! How could it be you? Why are you here?"
Tang Hao's surprise was not an act. He truly had not expected to encounter Bibi Dong here.
After all, publicly, Bibi Dong was the Pope of Spirit Hall, and she also bore a Master Killing Grudge against Tang Hao.
"That's none of your concern. On the other hand, why are you secretly protecting Yu Xiaogang?"
"Hmph, I don't care whether Yu Xiaogang lives or dies. I'm protecting my son."
"Your son? That Tang Sect traitor who underwent Body Seizing Rebirth? You actually kept him?"
Bibi Dong had struck right where it hurt, and Tang Hao's expression immediately turned extremely ugly.
"I naturally have my reasons for keeping him. You have no right to tell me what to do.
"On the other hand, you, the dignified Pope of Spirit Hall—why have you become so secretive and furtive?"
Bibi Dong's expression turned equally unpleasant, and she gave a cold snort.
"Hmph, my affairs are none of your business either."
Bibi Dong then caught up with Yu Xiaogang and Tang San, while Tang Hao followed as well.
Meanwhile, at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi looked at the letter in his hand with a bitter expression.
The letter was written by Xiao Chenlong. Its contents stated that since the Upper Three Sects wished to gather again, he would mercifully grant them this opportunity.
Seven days later, in the name of the Martial Soul Hall Holy Son, he invited representatives of the Upper Three Sects to gather at Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
This letter had not only been sent to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, but also to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and Moonlight Pavilion.
Xiao Chenlong had also sent Moonlight Pavilion an unpublished story, Should I Accept My Sister's Feelings?
After Tang Yuehua finished reading the story, her face turned deathly pale. She could not understand how someone knew the thoughts hidden in her heart.
"Could it be that I really made it so obvious? Does Second Brother really know how I feel? Has Second Brother truly been conflicted over it? If he has, does that mean he doesn't feel nothing for me either, only that he's restrained by..."
At that thought, Tang Yuehua's face inexplicably flushed red.
The Shadow Ninja hidden in the shadows relayed every bit of Tang Yuehua's reaction to Xiao Chenlong.
Xiao Chenlong's mouth twitched. This Tang Yuehua was even more absurd than that woman Liu Erlong.
Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong were merely cousins, but she and Tang Hao were biological siblings.
At Clear Sky Sect, Tang Xiao also received the letter Tang Yuehua had forwarded. Yet after reading it, he frowned.
Through Tang Yuehua's connections, Tang Xiao had learned something about what Xiao Chenlong, the Martial Soul Hall Holy Son, had been doing.
It was precisely because he knew something that Tang Xiao felt confused.
"What is he trying to do? Lure people from my Clear Sky Sect out to kill them?"
Because of Tang Hao, Spirit Hall and Clear Sky Sect were absolute enemies.
With such a hostile relationship, it was difficult for Tang Xiao to believe that Xiao Chenlong was not plotting to lure Clear Sky Sect members out and kill them.
Tang Xiao was simply overthinking it. Xiao Chenlong was not Qian Daoliu and would not care about the agreement between Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen.
If necessary, even if Clear Sky Sect hid in the Snow Mountain Ancestral Land, Xiao Chenlong could still wipe them all out in one sweep.
As for whether Clear Sky Sect would attend the meeting, Xiao Chenlong did not care much. If Clear Sky Sect refused to come, he would simply treat it as though it did not exist.
Clear Sky Sect and its disciples would likewise completely lose their standing in the Spirit Master World in the future.
Meanwhile, at the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Yuanzhen's expression was equally unpleasant after receiving the letter.
"Spirit Hall's wolfish ambitions have already been exposed beyond doubt, yet they still brazenly invite the Upper Three Sects. They clearly have no respect for us at all."
"Elder Brother, what's the point of saying that now? Are we going or not? Just give us a straight answer!"
Yu Luomian directly contradicted Yu Yuanzhen, who shot him a fierce glare.
"I need to consider this. All of you should speak as well, lest you accuse us of acting arbitrarily and making all the decisions ourselves."
The Elders of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, including Yu Luomian, all fell silent.
In matters like this, the more they spoke, the more likely they were to make mistakes. It was better to keep quiet and protect themselves.
Yu Yuanzhen could not help shaking his head. Did a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan like this still have any future?
The scene returned to Yu Xiaogang and Tang San. Pointing at a ten-year-old Guzhu, Yu Xiaogang said, "This is a ten-year-old Guzhu. It can be considered a fairly suitable Spirit Ring for you, but its age is too low.
"Let's keep looking first. If we can't find anything more suitable, we'll choose it."
Tang San still only had a vague understanding of the Spirit Master cultivation system, so he merely nodded along.
Tang Hao, hidden nearby, looked extremely displeased. Tang Hao's son might have been possessed, but he was still his son. How could his First Spirit Ring be a ten-year-old Guzhu?
"Yu Xiaogang needs to be taught a lesson. I can't let him ruin Xiao San."
As Tang Hao thought this, Bibi Dong stared at Yu Xiaogang, her eyes filled with obsession.
Bibi Dong's fixation on Yu Xiaogang had long since twisted her entire being.
Right now, she wanted to rush over and meet Yu Xiaogang. That was what she thought, and that was what she did.
But Tang Hao stopped her again.
"Tang Hao, why are you stopping me?"
"They're soul hunting. Don't disturb them. Once they leave Soul Hunting Forest, I absolutely won't stop you."
"Why should I listen to you?"
With that, Bibi Dong ignored him completely and appeared directly before Yu Xiaogang and Tang San.
Yu Xiaogang and Tang San were both startled by Bibi Dong's sudden appearance.
Tang San also aimed the Hidden Weapon Silent Sleeve Arrow at Bibi Dong, ready to fire at any moment.
"Xiaogang..."
Bibi Dong called Yu Xiaogang's name and removed her hood.
Yet when Yu Xiaogang saw Bibi Dong, what appeared on his face was not delight, but fear.
He instinctively stepped back, widening the distance between himself and Bibi Dong.
"Bibi Dong, what do you want this time?"
