Others might not know how much the Tang Sect disciples had sacrificed in order to restore the Tang Sect's former glory, but as the Tang Sect's sect master, she knew all too well the hardships involved.
It could be said that every generation of Tang Sect disciples had devoted their entire lives to the goal of restoring the Tang Sect's glory. Even after the efforts of countless generations yielded not the slightest hope of success, they had never abandoned that goal.
And now...
It turned out that the Tang Sect's ancestors and seniors had not failed to work hard enough. Rather, everything about the Tang Sect had been a lie from the very beginning.
What was more, according to Shen Fan, when the Tang Sect was destroyed and its members were slaughtered, Tang San had watched the entire thing unfold from the Divine Realm and had even tacitly allowed it. How could Tang Ya, now that she knew the truth, not be furious?
"Father, Mother."
"Your sacrifices were far too undeserved."
"Forgive me. Once I find the right opportunity, I will disband the Tang Sect completely."
"From now on, I am only Tang Ya—Tang Ya, who seeks revenge against Tang San—not Tang Ya, sect master of the Tang Sect."
After saying that, Tang Ya closed her eyes, then quickly opened them again. The anger and grief in her eyes had turned into unyielding resolve.
Meanwhile, unaware that another person who should have stood on Tang San's side had come to hate him, Shen Fan sprinkled some fresh water over Ah Yin, lay down beside her, and continued writing his diary.
Douluo 1 Ah Yin: "..."
Actually...
The Tang Sect disciples from Tang Ya's parents' generation had been fairly fortunate.
At the very least, they had not known that their destruction had been the outcome tacitly approved by Tang San, the Tang Sect's founding ancestor. They would not have died with lingering resentment because of it.
Unlike the Single Attribute Four Clans, who had joined the Tang Sect when it was first established during the Douluo 1 era.
Those four clans were the ones who had truly died with lingering resentment.
Not long after Tang San received the aid of the gods, killed Bibi Dong, and brought an end to the Spirit Hall Empire and Spirit Hall, the Clear Sky Sect came for those four clans and wiped them out.
But if you ask me, those four clans had it coming.
Douluo 1 Bai Chenxiang: "How did we have it coming?"
Back when Spirit Hall clashed with the Clear Sky Sect, the Clear Sky Sect abandoned those four clans and used them to draw enemy fire. At that point, they should have understood what kind of people the Clear Sky Sect were.
Later, those four clans suffered devastating losses at Spirit Hall's hands. To avoid being wiped out completely, they swore never to have anything to do with the Clear Sky Sect again. Only then did the benevolent Spirit Hall spare those four clans.
Yet all four clans broke their word.
The Strength Clan in particular had always treated itself as Tang Hao's dog.
But what use was it even if you were willing to be dogs?
Back then, when the Clear Sky Sect's reputation had gone completely down the drain, your four clans had contributed quite a lot to it.
It must have felt pretty good to curse the Clear Sky Sect back then, right?
Heh.
But did you think the Clear Sky Sect would not settle scores with your four clans afterward?
While Spirit Hall still existed, you were still useful. You could be used as cannon fodder to fight Spirit Hall's people.
Once Spirit Hall was gone, leaving aside the matter of settling old scores, as long as you remained, the Clear Sky Sect would never be able to clear itself of the shameful incident where it fled without fighting when facing Spirit Hall.
After all, the Single Attribute Four Clans who knew the truth of what happened back then were still around.
To put it bluntly, as long as your four clans remained, the Clear Sky Sect would never know peace.
Douluo 1 Bai Chenxiang: "..."
In fact...
The very fact that Tang San had been unwilling to give Bai Chenxiang even a single slot to ascend to the Divine Realm showed that the Clear Sky Sect had intended to make a move against the Single Attribute Four Clans.
It was just that the people in charge of the Single Attribute Four Clans were all brainless idiots and had never considered it.
Of course, that was only my speculation. But the fact that the Tang Sect of the Douluo 2 era had no trace of the Single Attribute Four Clans was undeniable.
If the Clear Sky Sect had not moved against and destroyed the Single Attribute Four Clans, then none of this made any sense.
First, after Spirit Hall disappeared, the Tang Sect became one of the two dominant forces of the Douluo 1 era, with the other being the Clear Sky Sect.
And as the four single-attribute clans that led the Tang Sect's four halls, their status within the Tang Sect was obvious.
Under those circumstances, if the Tang Sect had not tacitly allowed it and the Clear Sky Sect had not acted, no one could have wiped out the Single Attribute Four Clans.
As for the possibility that the Single Attribute Four Clans had later been destroyed by outsiders, that was even more ridiculous.
If every member of the Single Attribute Four Clans had been exterminated by outsiders, why would the Tang Sect still exist?
And even if the Single Attribute Four Clans really had been destroyed by outsiders, they could not have been wiped out so thoroughly that not a single person remained.
Honestly, if the Tang Sect had truly watched helplessly as outsiders slaughtered every last member of the Single Attribute Four Clans without stepping in to help, then the Tang Sect would be even more disgusting.
Still, that said...
Other than Bai Chenxiang, that twin-tailed girl, I had no favorable impression of any of the Single Attribute Four Clans.
Especially the Strength Clan. I would definitely destroy them in the future.
Douluo 1 Bai Chenxiang: "We never offended you, did we?"
Sigh.
Who could blame me for being such a lecher?
I had my eye on Bai Chenxiang.
Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't have let the other three clans of the Single Attribute Four Clans off the hook either.
Douluo 1 Bai Chenxiang: "Uh..."
All the women: "..."
Ahem.
I got sidetracked.
This time, I was writing about Tang Ya. Writing about another girl right in front of a girl was very inappropriate.
All the women: "Isn't it even more inappropriate that you fall for every girl you write about?!"
Actually, Tang Ya's Blue Silver Grass was not ordinary Blue Silver Grass.
Her martial soul should have been called Dark Blue Silver Grass.
Its effect was similar to Tang San's Eight Spider Lances—it could absorb the energy of other living beings to cultivate.
By Douluo 2's standards, that made her an Evil Soul Master.
Douluo 2 Tang Ya Livestream: "That evil aura that had been with me since birth... was it brought by my martial soul? I thought it was an ability I possessed naturally."
"Dark Blue Silver Grass?"
"That name sounds bad enough already."
Douluo 2 Xian Lin'er Livestream: "Tang Ya, come to my office."
Douluo 2 Tang Ya Livestream: "Understood."
Since they were both owners of Diary Copies, Tang Ya was not at all afraid that Xian Lin'er would do anything to harm her.
I mentioned before that all the Tang Sect disciples became the new generation of Shrek Seven Devils. Tang Ya alone, the Tang Sect's leader, did not even qualify to sign up.
That was why, after this selection of the Shrek Seven Devils, Tang Ya—who had outwardly seemed sincerely happy for Huo Yuhao and the others—quietly left Shrek Academy alone not long afterward.
