Tang Hao and Ah Yin, Bibi Dong: If not for Tang Hao, how could I have today?

When this series of information, detailed to an outrageous degree, was made public.

The entire continent fell into a deathly silence, followed immediately by a shock that roared like a landslide and a tsunami!

"Ninety... ninety-five?!"

"And he possesses a hundred-thousand-year soul ring and a full set of soul bones! My god!"

"The most terrifying part is that commentary! By relying on Ring Detonation, he can challenge a level ninety-eight Title Douluo above his rank? Is he even human?!"

Martial Soul City, Worship Hall.

When Qian Daoliu saw it was Tang Hao, his old face instantly darkened.

"Tang Hao, you had better not let this old man find out where you are, otherwise! Hmph, hmph..."

Although it was not Tang Hao who killed his son.

It was because Qian Xunji had been severely wounded by Tang Hao.

That he was later successfully ambushed by Bibi Dong, not only falling in battle, but even having his soul devoured by her!

Although he had originally feared Tang Chen and held back for fear of harming the innocent.

But after so many years, Qian Daoliu had long since determined in his heart.

Tang Chen must be dead beyond any doubt!

Well, not entirely certain.

After all, for a Title Douluo, every level of soul power gained adds a hundred years to one's lifespan.

Only a few decades have passed now, right?

However, the appearance of the Sky Screen now gave Qian Daoliu a 'chance'.

"Top Ten Hidden Powerhouses?"

Qian Daoliu whispered to himself.

"Then I shall see if you, Tang Chen, are among them."

The corners of Qian Daoliu's mouth curled up slightly.

If even Tang Hao could be ranked tenth, then if Tang Chen were still alive, he would certainly be on the list!

This would also make it easier to arrange Martial Soul Hall's future attitude toward the Clear Sky Sect.

The reason Qian Daoliu hadn't directly taken action against the Clear Sky Sect was not because of his promise to Tang Chen back then.

It was simply because he wasn't sure whether Tang Chen was truly dead or not.

If Tang Chen were dead, confirmed beyond doubt.

Then, he could proceed to the Clear Sky Sect to avenge the pain of losing his son!

Well, although it was Bibi Dong who killed Qian Xunji.

But for the sake of Qian Renxue, Qian Daoliu had no intention of actually killing Bibi Dong.

Qian Renxue had already lost her father; she could not lose her mother as well.

The text on the Sky Screen slowly faded, the images began to shift, and a long-sealed footage began to play before everyone's eyes.

In the image, there was a towering, majestic peak that pierced the clouds.

Above the mountain gate, the two characters "Clear Sky" were written with dragon-like strokes, exuding an imposing and domineering aura.

This was the number one sect in the world, the Clear Sky Sect.

The camera zoomed in, and on the sect plaza, two spirited young men were sparring.

One was as steady as a mountain, while the other was domineering and sharp, the pitch-black Clear Sky Hammer in his hand whistling with force.

The Sky Screen's narration followed:

[Once upon a time, the Clear Sky Sect possessed two brilliant and peerless geniuses, known as the "Clear Sky Twin Stars".

The elder brother, Tang Xiao, was steady and resolute; the younger brother, Tang Hao, was high-spirited and vigorous.]

The scene shifted, and Tang Hao and Tang Xiao stood side by side to bid farewell to their father, the Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect, as well as other elders and peers, deciding to leave the sect to venture out into the world.

[In order to pursue greater power and to witness a broader world.

The young Tang Hao and his elder brother, Tang Xiao, left the protection of the sect, and their legend began from this moment...]

The images on the Sky Screen continued to flow.

The magnificent mountains and rivers of the continent flashed past in the footage, from the frozen snowfields of the north to the lush rainforests of the southern frontier.

In the images, Tang Hao's figure appeared constantly; he challenged powerful soul beasts and fought against evil soul masters, the Clear Sky Hammer in his hands becoming increasingly heavy and domineering through his tempering.

His soul power climbed steadily, and he soon carved out a resounding reputation among the younger generation.

Until one day.

The image froze in a quiet patch of Blue Silver Grass.

Under the setting sun, a woman wearing a plain long dress with waterfall-like blue hair was gently stroking the Blue Silver Grass beside her.

Her smile was warmer than the sunlight, and her eyes were clearer than the waters of a lake.

When she raised her head and saw the young man not far away, holding a giant hammer with eyes as sharp as a hawk's, she felt not a shred of fear, but instead offered a smile capable of melting ice and snow.

Above the firmament, two elegant characters slowly emerged.

[Ah Yin]

In the scene, the gaze of Tang Hao, usually filled with arrogance and the will to battle, softened in a rare display of tenderness the moment he saw this woman.

Next, the images began to play at an accelerated pace.

It was a montage of them traveling across the continent together.

He swung his hammer to repel ferocious spirit beasts for her, and she used her gentle Blue Silver Domain to heal his wounds; they snuggled under the starry sky and watched the sunrise from the mountain peaks.

That Clear Sky Hammer, symbolizing dominance and power, and that resilient, life-filled Blue Silver Grass formed a picture of perfect harmony.

Across the entire continent, countless young girls watching the images on the sky screen revealed eyes filled with envy and longing.

"So beautiful... that woman named Ah Yin is truly so beautiful."

"A man as domineering as the Clear Sky Douluo actually has such a gentle side."

However, at Shrek Academy.

The moment Tang San saw the woman named "Ah Yin," he was struck as if by lightning, freezing completely in place.

He felt his heart gripped tightly by an invisible hand, and a throb of intimacy originating from the depths of his bloodline made it almost impossible for him to breathe.

He subconsciously reached out his hand, wanting to touch that gentle smile on the sky screen, while his eyes uncontrollably welled up with tears.

"Mother..."

This word had only existed in his imagination since he could remember.

Yet at this moment, it overlapped with the figure on the sky screen with absolute clarity.

So, this is my mother...

So, she is this beautiful, this gentle...

Beside him, Xiao Wu keenly sensed Tang San's abnormality. Seeing him looking so distraught and tear-streaked, her heart tightened, and she gripped his hand in worry:

"Brother San, what's wrong?"

Tang San did not answer, only staring fixedly at the sky, as if he wanted to carve that figure into the depths of his soul forever.

At the same time, in Martial Soul City.

The atmosphere inside the Papal Palace had dropped to freezing point.

Bibi Dong watched the deeply affectionate Tang Hao and Ah Yin on the sky screen, a complex expression appearing on her face.

"Ah Yin... a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor!"

"If not for them, I might never have had the opportunity to kill Qian Xunji!"

Bibi Dong whispered softly, the corners of her mouth curling upward slightly.

"It is all fate!"

"None of it is up to man..."

Bibi Dong recalled those dark years in the secret chamber, being humiliated by that beast Qian Xunji, and even being forced to give birth to his wretched offspring...

Her face was full of humiliation, but the moment she thought of how she had personally slain her enemy and even forced Qian Daoliu to support her as Pope, a sense of gratification rose in her heart.

In the Worship Hall.

"Blue Silver Emperor? A fine Blue Silver Emperor indeed!"

Qian Daoliu's face was as cold as frost as he enunciated the name, his voice filled with bone-chilling coldness.

"A fine Tang Hao! A fine Clear Sky Sect!

To crossbreed with a spirit beast—truly, heaven and earth cannot tolerate this!"
