Heavenly Curtain, Tang Hao Is Your sworn enemy

"So, why exactly was that?"

The Heavenly Curtain's voice was laced with mockery as it taunted Tang Hao.

"No... No, how could this be?"

Hearing the Heavenly Curtain's words, Tang Yuehua seemed to lose her mind. The composure she'd always shown was gone.

She shook her head over and over, muttering to herself:

"Second Brother... How could my second brother be that kind of person? This... This has to be a lie!"

Tang Yuehua still couldn't bring herself to believe it, but as she listened to the Heavenly Curtain, a seed of doubt about Tang Hao quietly took root in her heart.

And the Heavenly Curtain kindly watered and fertilized that seed.

"Even after I've pointed out those two coincidences, you still think Tang Hao is trustworthy?"

"Or maybe you'd defend him by saying that Spirit Hall had already discovered Ah Yin's true identity and was just waiting for the right moment to capture her."

"Then let me tell you this, you idiot: Spirit Hall wasn't waiting for anything."

The Heavenly Curtain's voice carried a hint of scorn. "A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, and this was during Tang San's era, not an era from ten thousand years ago."

"Tell me, who in Spirit Hall was qualified to absorb that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast? The Worship Hall's worship elders don't need mentioning."

"They were already Titled Douluo. They couldn't absorb her."

"So, was it the pope at the time, Qian Xunji? Sorry, Qian Xunji was already a Titled Douluo too."

"That leaves only one person: the current pope, Bibi Dong."

"The answer is clear. Qian Xunji captured Ah Yin so he could give her to Bibi Dong."

"So, if he was capturing Ah Yin for Bibi Dong, why wait? Wouldn't he have captured her as soon as he discovered she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?"

"Instead, he waited until Tang Hao had reached level eighty-nine, giving him the chance to absorb Ah Yin's Soul Ring. He waited until then to capture her."

"Do you think the people in Spirit Hall were fools?"

"The truth is right in front of you. If you still don't believe it, all I can say is that you might as well become Tang Hao's son."

As the Heavenly Curtain fell silent, Tang Yuehua couldn't think of a single thing to say in rebuttal.

Because she knew the Heavenly Curtain was telling the truth.

Tang Yuehua had never imagined that the second brother she admired most could do such a thing.

While Tang Yuehua reeled from the revelation about Tang Hao, her eldest brother, Tang Xiao, was sinking into profound anguish inside the Clear Sky Sect.

"A-Ah Yin... Hao, my brother? How... How could you do something like this just for a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring?!"

After seeing the Heavenly Curtain expose what Tang Hao had done to Ah Yin, Tang Xiao was utterly crushed.

One was the younger brother closest to him. The other was the woman he loved.

And his younger brother had used such despicable tricks to deceive Tang Xiao's wife into sacrificing herself for him.

"Hao, is strength really that important to you?"

"You didn't even spare Ah Yin. Does that mean if I and the Clear Sky Sect ever stood in the way of your pursuit of power, you'd get rid of us too?"

As Tang Xiao struggled with his grief and indecision, the Clear Sky Sect's elders hurried over to him.

Seeing the vacant look in Tang Xiao's eyes, one elder said indignantly:

"Sect Master, I've long said Tang Hao is a ruthless man. For his own selfish desires, he committed an atrocity like this. He didn't even spare the wife who bore his child."

"We were far too generous in our judgment of him. That despicable man brought our Clear Sky Sect years of seclusion just to get a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring."

"Hmph!!!"

The Clear Sky Sect elder roared with righteous anger.

"That's right, Sect Master. Even though Tang Hao is your younger brother, we absolutely cannot let him set foot in the Clear Sky Sect this time!"

Hearing the elder's words, the others chimed in one after another.

"Tang Hao is a heartless, ungrateful beast. He killed his own wife and child for a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, and even dragged our Clear Sky Sect down with him."

"He escaped on his own, taking that son of his who isn't even his biological child and running off. But what about our Clear Sky Sect? That beast left us to pay the price."

"Spirit Hall couldn't find him, so they blamed the death of Pope Qian Xunji on our sect. My son died in Spirit Hall's retaliation back then!"

"I'll make Tang Hao pay for this blood debt!"

It was no wonder the Clear Sky Sect elders hated Tang Hao so much.

What Tang Hao had done back then had been downright inhuman. He'd gravely wounded Qian Xunji.

Although Qian Xunji had been killed by Bibi Dong, Spirit Hall blamed his death on Tang Hao.

Tang Hao had run away, but a great clan like the Clear Sky Sect couldn't simply flee.

The Clear Sky Sect was one of the Upper Three Sects and had great strength, but Spirit Hall was even stronger. Never mind Qian Xunji, a level ninety-nine Limit Douluo.

The Clear Sky Sect couldn't stand against the Titled Douluo in Spirit Hall's Worship Hall, let alone its vast influence.

Spirit Hall's retaliation had cost the Clear Sky Sect dearly, and in the end, they'd had no choice but to announce their seclusion.

The Clear Sky Sect had been left to clean up the enormous mess Tang Hao had made.

The elders had been stuck on the mountain for years because of Tang Hao. Some had even lost family members to Spirit Hall's retaliation.

How could they not hate him?

When Tang San came to the Clear Sky Sect to demand justice for his father, how could they not be furious?

And the most infuriating part was that once Tang San had become powerful, he'd simply said, "What wrong has my father done?"

There was nothing more to say about that father and son.

Elsewhere, in the Heaven Dou Empire, Qian Renxue's eyes brimmed with tears as she listened to the Heavenly Curtain.

She was filled with grievance, and already confused about why Bibi Dong had been hostile toward her. Now she was even more confused.

Her father, Qian Xunji, had died while trying to hunt a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring for that woman. So why had Bibi Dong treated her and her father this way?

She was beginning to hate Bibi Dong more than ever.

Shrek Academy.

After watching the Heavenly Curtain strip away every last shred of his dignity, Tang Hao's expression turned ghastly.

"It's over. It's all over!"

After the Heavenly Curtain's broadcast, Tang Hao had hoped to make a good impression before all of Douluo Continent. Instead, he'd exposed his own shame.

How humiliating. What a disgrace.

Tang San prided himself on being pure and unsullied, and his father had always thought of himself the same way.

But now, his reputation as a heartless man who'd deceived his own wife into sacrificing herself had been branded onto him for good.

"Heavenly Curtain, Tang Hao will never rest until you're dead!"
