Where was this?
In the Live Stream Room, when they saw the illusion before them suddenly change into a bustling city crowded with people, many could not help but feel curious and confused.
But it was not over yet.
After the illusion transformed into a lively, prosperous city, the view suddenly shifted to a snack street.
On this crowded street, vendors' cries rose and fell one after another.
Amid the crowd, a tall middle-aged man in a grayish-brown robe, with ordinary features but an exceptionally resolute bearing, bought several snacks from a vendor and handed them to the woman beside him. She wore a blue dress, had a large pregnant belly, and possessed a gentle temperament and delicate beauty.
"Here! Ah Yin, these are the local specialty snacks. Give them a try!"
Wasn't this guy the Clear Sky Douluo from six or seven years ago?
And the woman beside him was pregnant. Could she be the Clear Sky Douluo's wife?
Seeing the middle-aged man in the live stream, many people who had met Tang Hao narrowed their eyes, their thoughts stirring.
Of course, they had not mistaken him.
This was the Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao, along with his wife, Ah Yin!
Meanwhile, in Holy Soul Village.
Why did this man look so much like Dad?!
In the Blacksmith Shop, Tang San was filled with shock as he watched what was before him.
Though their temperaments were somewhat different.
In terms of build and appearance, if his father Tang Hao changed into clothes like those worn by the man in the live stream and tidied up his hair, the two would be practically identical.
It was only that their temperaments differed.
The man in the live stream had a tough, steadfast air, while his father carried a deeply dispirited aura.
But temperaments could change!
If the man in the live stream really was his father, then what had happened to make his father so dispirited as he was now?
And was the person beside him his mother?
His mother was called... Ah Yin?
But why had his father always refused to tell him anything about his mother?
Tang San's mind was in complete turmoil.
He desperately wanted to find his father right now and ask what all this meant, but when he looked toward the inner room beside him, there was no one inside.
His father, Tang Hao, was not home.
So where was Tang Hao now?
At that moment, atop a mountain peak in the forest behind Holy Soul Village.
Beneath a waterfall, Tang Hao sat beside Ah Yin in her original form, his consciousness having entered the Live Stream Room as well.
When he saw that this live stream was actually showing events related to him, Tang Hao was stunned.
He had never expected this live stream to be about him.
Perhaps he would have a greater advantage in answering this time.
After all, judging from the previous two live streams, the final question had been related to the events shown.
And when it came to his own affairs, naturally no one understood them better than he did.
But... he still hoped that this reward would be useful to Ah Yin, and that the question this time would not be some random nonsense...
As if recalling something, Tang Hao's heart grew heavy.
While many people were still astonished by the events being shown in this live stream.
The scene in the live stream continued.
After Tang Hao took his wife Ah Yin through the snack street, they continued wandering around the city, seemingly intending to find an inn to stay in.
As the two strolled about, enthusiastic clamor suddenly came from the end of the street.
In the distance, two rows of ceremonial knights were pushing aside the crowd and clearing the way for a luxurious carriage behind them.
Because the crowd was so dense.
Tang Hao could only bring his wife to an open spot by the roadside and wait for the ceremonial guard and carriage to pass.
But as the carriage drew nearer.
Standing atop it was a handsome blond middle-aged man dressed in a magnificent golden ceremonial robe.
The two standing beside him were also splendidly dressed, though one had delicate, feminine features while the other exuded a gloomy aura.
Anyone who knew them would certainly recognize them.
The three on the carriage were none other than the previous Pope of Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji.
Along with Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei.
As the ceremonial guard brought the carriage closer to Tang Hao.
Qian Xunji, who was waving to the surrounding crowd, suddenly noticed Tang Hao and Ah Yin.
The moment he saw Ah Yin, Qian Xunji's gaze fixed firmly upon her.
Tang Hao and Ah Yin, on the other hand, immediately had their pupils contract upon recognizing Qian Xunji, Yue Guan, and Gui Mei on the carriage. Their hands clenched tightly together, their faces pale.
Tang Hao was even filled with disbelief as he muttered.
"How is this possible? Why would the Pope of Spirit Hall be here..."
Seeing this, many powerful figures throughout the Live Stream Room were filled with uncertainty and alarm.
They could not understand why Qian Xunji was staring so intently at Tang Hao's wife.
Could Qian Xunji have taken a fancy to Tang Hao's wife?
But that was impossible!
With Qian Xunji's looks, status, and position, he did not lack women at all.
And he presumably knew Tang Hao. It was even less likely that he would cause a conflict between Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect over a woman.
Though that was what they thought.
Those who knew what had happened back then had already realized.
The trigger for the conflict between the Clear Sky Sect and Spirit Hall back then was very likely the event shown in this live stream!
Later, after Qian Xunji once again caught up with Tang Hao and his wife and demanded that Tang Hao leave his wife Ah Yin behind.
Everyone finally understood the reason behind it all.
Tang Hao's wife was actually a transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!
For a time, countless people were utterly shocked.
This included Tang San in Holy Soul Village.
My mother was actually a transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?
Tang San was filled with disbelief.
But it was not over yet.
Because Tang Hao adamantly refused to hand over his wife Ah Yin.
Qian Xunji also did not dare to rashly seize Ah Yin by force.
Doing so could easily lead to a conflict between Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect, so he could only retreat for the time being.
But Qian Xunji did not give up. After withdrawing, he used Spirit Hall to pressure the Clear Sky Sect.
The next Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect had actually joined with a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
This was enough to shake the entire Soul Master world!
Though transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts looked no different from humans.
Soul Masters had hunted Soul Beasts for countless years, and the two sides could be said to share a blood feud.
The enmity between the two species was simply impossible to resolve!
Once something like this was exposed, Tang Hao's fate would definitely be even worse than Qiao Feng's in Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils!
Therefore, regardless of whether the Clear Sky Sect had known about this before.
After Spirit Hall informed them of it, they could no longer turn a blind eye.
But Tang Hao moved even faster. Before the Clear Sky Sect could respond, he actually announced his withdrawal from the Clear Sky Sect.
Then, with his wife Ah Yin, he began to flee!
Qian Xunji was naturally more than happy to see Tang Hao leave the Clear Sky Sect. He immediately led people in pursuit of Tang Hao, intending to capture Ah Yin, the transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!
Yet in the face of Qian Xunji's pursuit.
Although Qian Xunji himself was a Titled Douluo, and he had Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan, Ghost Douluo Gui Mei, and many powerful Spirit Hall experts with him.
They still failed to immediately catch Tang Hao and his wife.
But unfortunately.
During Qian Xunji's pursuit, Ah Yin gave birth midway through their escape. Burdened with a fragile infant.
The two finally could no longer escape the fierce pursuit.
In the end, Ah Yin could only choose to sacrifice herself to Tang Hao, making Tang Hao the youngest Titled Douluo in history. With a single move, Grand Sumeru Hammer Blast Ring, he smashed Qian Xunji half to death!
Afterward, Tang Hao escaped with Tang San, who was still an infant.
Leaving behind only a field of ruins.
Where numerous Spirit Hall experts with Support Martial Souls anxiously treated the gravely injured, unconscious Qian Xunji.
Time froze at that moment.
Then, a line of large blood-red words appeared before everyone.
At the same time, a cold voice rang out beside everyone's ears.
The event has ended. The Q&A will now begin! Question: Who was the main culprit behind Ah Yin's sacrifice? (For this Q&A, you may answer with only the name of the faction. However, if you can identify the individual, the reward will be even more generous!) Q&A Reward: One random soul bone over one hundred thousand years old x1 / One random ability suited to oneself x1 (Soul Beast-exclusive reward)!
The account Tang Hao gave Tang San in the original work about being pursued by Spirit Hall will not be used, because it has far too many plot holes.
Ah Yin had traveled the continent with Tang Hao and his brother for years without anyone discovering her identity, yet after she told the two of them who she was, she was discovered on the way back to the Clear Sky Sect. How did that make any sense?
As I see it, based on the original explanation, Spirit Hall did not initially want to go to war with the Clear Sky Sect. They should not have sent Titled Douluo to monitor the Tang Hao brothers, and without Titled Douluo, they could not have discovered Ah Yin. After learning Ah Yin's identity, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao were not idiots either. They should have been more cautious and taken smaller roads back to the Clear Sky Sect, so how were they discovered? What a joke!
Also, Tang Hao's father was supposedly already terminally ill before learning about Ah Yin.
Damn it, what kind of illness could make a Titled Douluo terminally ill? What nonsense!
And even more disgusting was that Ah Yin had not died, yet Tang Hao spent every day drowning himself in drink and dreams. If Tang San had not been a transmigrator, he should have died long ago.
And this was supposedly the Clear Sky Douluo renowned across the continent? I think he was just trash!
As for how the author came up with the circumstances under which Ah Yin was discovered and ultimately forced to sacrifice herself, an explanation will be given later.
