"Everyone, I want to ask you the most straightforward question: will our Spirit Hall be destroyed by the hands of Tang San in the future? Tang San's money relies on the subsidies issued by our Spirit Hall, and his qualification as a spirit master also depends on the work-study student quotas provided by our Spirit Hall."

"For someone like that to actually want to destroy Spirit Hall—if it weren't for us, it would be a question of whether he could even become a spirit master, and his spirit was awakened thanks to our Spirit Hall as well."

"The problem right now is that Tang San hasn't even been born yet. If he is born, he is destined to destroy Spirit Hall. How should we deal with the Tang San problem when the time comes? Bibi Dong has let Tang San off multiple times just because he is Yu Xiaogang's disciple, and that includes the Shrek Seven Devils."

Demon Bear Douluo's words made sense, and everyone nodded in agreement.

"Facing such scum and animals, there is no need to talk about morality or anything of the sort. I'm saying, what if we kill that 100,000-year soul beast in advance so that Tang Hao and that 100,000-year soul beast never meet? Then what would happen to Tang San? How would Tang San even be born?"

Once Demon Bear Douluo said this, everyone was astonished. This move was indeed ruthless. If they wiped out the 100,000-year soul beast A Yin—Tang Hao's wife—then how Tang San would be born would be a question, and whether he would even exist would be a question.

However, if Tang San were never born, it would certainly be a good thing for Spirit Hall. Even if the other devils gathered together again under the machinations of fate, without Tang San, how could they possibly defeat Spirit Hall?

"This is indeed a good method. And even if Tang San were still born, he might not necessarily have innate full spirit power. Tang San's innate full spirit power stems from his mother being a 100,000-year Blue Silver Emperor and his father being a Titled Douluo; having a mother who is a 100,000-year soul beast gave him superior physical constitution from a young age."

Qian Daoliu, or rather, the many Titled Douluo elders of Spirit Hall, had always believed that Tang San's innate full spirit power was due to the combination of a Titled Douluo and a 100,000-year soul beast, which birthed a genius with innate full spirit power and twin spirits. The problem was, they didn't know that Tang San didn't have innate full spirit power at all; his innate full spirit power was cultivated, practiced in advance.

If they knew that, they would probably snatch Tang San's Mysterious Heaven Skill immediately.

"Exactly. If Tang Hao's wife wasn't that 100,000-year soul beast, Tang San's physical constitution couldn't possibly result in innate full spirit power. Even if Tang San were born again, without twin spirits and without innate full spirit power, how could he be a match for Spirit Hall?" After Demon Bear Douluo said this, everyone agreed. This could be considered the most vicious move possible.

"Furthermore, even if Tang San is born, the Immortal Herbs aren't located near him; they are in Dugu Bo's territory. Since Dugu Bo is unwilling to tell us where the Immortal Herbs are, we will monitor him. Once we find where Dugu Bo is hiding, we can find the herbs. If Dugu Bo dares to resist, we can take action and kill him directly. He is likely just a newly ascended Titled Douluo, so there are plenty of ways to make him surrender."

Ghost Douluo spoke, and Qian Daoliu didn't object. To help Tang San defeat Spirit Hall, Dugu Bo had unleashed poison and killed countless people. Qian Daoliu felt there was no need to talk about morality with someone like that.

After all, it was Dugu Bo who had poisoned the city first.

"Then let us prepare accordingly. In any case, we cannot allow Tang San to endanger Spirit Hall again. Under no circumstances can we let Bibi Dong continue to sabotage Spirit Hall. From now on, whoever dares to help Tang San is an enemy of our Spirit Hall!"

Subduing Demon Douluo slammed his fist onto a pillar and said angrily. The atmosphere was terrifying; after all, as enshrined Douluo with spirit power levels above 95, their anger was a fearsome sight.

"Big Brother, there is one more thing: no matter what, you cannot talk about those 'jianghu' moral codes anymore. Did Tang San and his lot ever talk to us about moral codes? Did they ever follow the rules? To win, they even let Dugu Bo massacre a city with poison! They preach that we should follow moral codes, yet they never follow them themselves. There is no need for us to observe any moral rules with them. Let's just be unreasonable ourselves. Stop following that code of chivalry; it's useless and only harms Spirit Hall."

Light Feather Douluo also hoped his big brother, Qian Daoliu, would wake up. It was one thing for him to follow the code of chivalry himself, but the problem was that he forced Spirit Hall to follow it as well.

As a result, they were sabotaged by the opposition. The enemy had calculated that their leader would follow the code of chivalry and that the Angel family would follow morality, so they abandoned morality themselves and used every shameless tactic in the book.

"Big Brother, the heritage of Spirit Hall is important, the heritage of the Qian family is important, and the heritage of our Enshrined Douluo families is also important. For the sake of our legacy, there is no need to talk about morality with the opposition." Subduing Demon Douluo also urged Qian Daoliu, hoping he would let go of his chivalrous spirit.

"Everyone, I understand. For the sake of Spirit Hall, I will abandon my principles, as long as it doesn't go too far against my core beliefs." Qian Daoliu felt extremely weary as he said this. As the leader of the Angel family, he upheld the spirit passed down by the Angel God. Forcing himself to go against that spirit was more painful than death, but being able to say these words meant he had already hardened his heart.

"Also, Xiao Xue's education must be kept up," Lion Douluo added.

"Big Brother, Xiao Xue's education failed because you didn't raise her right from the start, which led to her being soft-hearted and following rules, ultimately causing her failure. With Xiao Xue's talent, why not just keep her by your side? Just wait for her to reach level 100 and become a god, then flatten the two empires—isn't that enough? Is there any need for these plans? This 'Nation-Stealing Plan' only sabotaged ourselves and ruined Spirit Hall's reputation."

Lion Douluo had never liked the Nation-Stealing Plan. In his view, coming up with this plan was a sign of a brain-damaged individual. Qian Renxue had innate full spirit power of level 20; she was destined to become a god.

With such an existence, was there any need for undercover work? Just let Qian Renxue cultivate properly, and when she reached level 100 and became a god, she could flatten the two empires—wouldn't that be better?

"I understand, brothers. I will not let you down."

Qian Daoliu couldn't fathom why he had agreed to such a plan in the first place; he felt as if he had lost his mind.
