"Xiao San, what exactly did you want to see me about?" Yu Xiaogang asked as he brought Tang San into the room.

"Yu Xiaogang, why are you stopping me from heading toward a better future?"

"Go die, Yu Xiaogang."

"Only when you're dead can I go to Mount Lu Residence to find a master and pursue immortal cultivation."

"Only through immortal cultivation can I help my father and my mother."

"You brought this on yourself!"

As Tang San muttered to himself, he raised his right hand and aimed his sleeve at Yu Xiaogang.

Yu Xiaogang's hair stood on end.

Xiao San, you would actually kill me over Mount Lu Residence!

No!

I can't die yet!

I still have unfulfilled ideals and goals!

Yu Xiaogang lunged to the left without hesitation.

"Tang San, what are you doing?"

"Xiao Gang is your teacher! How could you do this?" Liu Erlong happened upon Tang San trying to kill Yu Xiaogang and instantly panicked.

She rushed forward and slapped him.

Liu Erlong's slap sent Tang San flying to the floor.

Liu Erlong rushed over and helped Yu Xiaogang up, asking with concern, "Xiao Gang, Xiao Gang, are you all right?"

"Xiao Gang, say something."

"Xiao Gang, wake up."

Seeing that Yu Xiaogang was still unconscious, Liu Erlong glared at Tang San, who lay on the floor. Unable to contain her fury any longer, she wanted to kill him outright.

Tang San scrambled up and immediately put distance between himself and Liu Erlong, arguing:

"Teacher Erlong, you can't blame me for this. Just look at what kind of person Yu Xiaogang is!"

"He's nothing but a swindler who cheats and deceives people, without any real ability or knowledge!"

"Back then, he saw that I was young and ignorant and deceived me. That's the only reason I took him as my master!"

"Now that I've realized it, why would I still acknowledge him as my teacher?"

"I already gave him a chance. He was the one who failed to treasure it."

"He wants to keep me trapped by his side? How could that happen? Absolutely not!"

"Tang San, enough! Shut up!"

Liu Erlong rebuked him.

"Even if Xiao Gang has countless faults, he's still your teacher."

"He even gave you his only Storage Soul Tool. Is this how you repay him?"

"As if anyone wants this Soul Tool."

Tang San removed the Storage Soul Tool wrapped around his waist and threw it at Yu Xiaogang, saying:

"For Teacher Erlong's sake, I'll spare Yu Xiaogang's life today."

"Tell him to give up on that idea. I won't acknowledge him as my teacher. Mount Lu Residence is where I long to be."

With that, Tang San prepared to leave Yu Xiaogang's room.

But just then, Yu Xiaogang slowly regained consciousness.

He slowly opened his eyes and looked at Tang San's retreating back as he was about to leave, reaching out as though trying to grasp it.

He called softly, "Xiao San, Xiao San, come back. You can't leave."

"I'm your teacher. How could you treat me so cruelly?"

"I gave you everything I could give you."

"Xiao San, don't go. Don't go."

Tang San ignored Yu Xiaogang's calls. Without looking back, he was about to leave Yu Xiaogang's room.

Liu Erlong watched Yu Xiaogang, so utterly weak yet still trying to win Tang San back.

Her heart brimmed with hatred,

hatred for Tang San for being an ungrateful wolf,

and hatred for Yu Xiaogang for still wanting to win Tang San back after Tang San had hurt him this badly.

Liu Erlong rebuked Yu Xiaogang:

"Xiao Gang, Tang San is nothing but an ungrateful wolf. Why would you still want an ungrateful wolf like him?"

"Doesn't he want to sever your master-disciple relationship?"

"Then grant his wish!"

"Doesn't he want to go to Mount Lu Residence?"

"Then tell everyone under heaven what an ungrateful person Tang San is!"

"I don't believe Mount Lu Residence would still take Tang San as a disciple after seeing all this!"

"You have to make all his extravagant hopes come to nothing!"

Yu Xiaogang clearly had not taken Liu Erlong's words to heart. His hand remained outstretched, even after Tang San had disappeared through the doorway.

After leaving Yu Xiaogang's room, Tang San had already walked some distance away, but Liu Erlong's voice was loud, and he heard every word clearly.

Tang San scoffed at Liu Erlong's words. Inwardly, he sneered:

Teacher Erlong, you actually think you can threaten me this way? How laughable.

This world is still a world where talent matters.

If I didn't have twin martial souls and innate full soul power, how could Yu Xiaogang possibly have taken me as his disciple?

Even if you stir up a storm all over the city, Mount Lu Residence won't turn its nose up at me.

Because with my talent, as long as they aren't blind, they'll definitely take me as a disciple.

Besides, Yu Xiaogang was the one in the wrong here in the first place. If he hadn't deceived me back then, why would I have taken him as my master?

He has only himself to blame for today's outcome.

Inside the room, Yu Xiaogang still refused to give up on Tang San.

He kept calling, "Xiao San, Xiao San, come back. Don't leave me."

Liu Erlong could not bear to watch any longer and rebuked Yu Xiaogang once again.

Seeing that Tang San still had not returned, Yu Xiaogang had no choice but to give up. Utterly lost, he turned his gaze to Liu Erlong.

He asked Liu Erlong, "Erlong, why do you think Xiao San abandoned me?"

"I was so good to Xiao San. I gave him everything I could."

Liu Erlong tried to reason with him. "Xiao Gang, Tang San is an ungrateful wolf. No matter how well you treat him, he won't cherish your kindness or feel grateful."

"What you need to do now is let everyone under heaven know exactly what kind of person Tang San is."

"How can you let an ungrateful wolf like him get what he wants?"

"Doesn't he want to find a master at Mount Lu Residence?"

"Then expose everything he's done so he can't enter Mount Lu Residence or find a master!"

After hearing Liu Erlong's words, a golden gleam flashed in Yu Xiaogang's eyes, and he said excitedly:

"That's right, that's right! As long as Xiao San can't enter Mount Lu Residence and take the monster inside as his master, he'll definitely come back to me."

Yu Xiaogang hesitated no longer. He immediately posted in the Firmament's Chat Channel, fiercely condemning Tang San.

[Yu Xiaogang: Tang San, you rebellious disciple! You're simply inhuman! I'm your master!]

[To go to Mount Lu Residence and take a monster as your master, you actually tried to kill me!]

[If Erlong hadn't been there, I'd already be dead. Stop dreaming! Mount Lu Residence will never take a treacherous disciple like you as its master!]

[Xiao San, come back. I'm willing to forgive you.]

At first, quite a few people felt sorry for Yu Xiaogang when they saw his earlier words.

But when Yu Xiaogang's final sentence appeared, most people no longer felt any sympathy for him.

They felt that Yu Xiaogang was simply debasing himself, and that he had brought all his suffering upon himself.

Only one person spoke up for Yu Xiaogang.

[Bibi Dong: Spirit Hall will be the first to refuse to spare a treacherous scoundrel like Tang San, who tried to murder his master!]

[If Tang San dares set foot in Spirit City from now on, I, the Pope, will personally take his head!]

Outside Spirit City, inside an inn.

Tang San frowned as he looked at the messages Bibi Dong had posted in the Firmament's Chat Channel and muttered inwardly:

Bibi Dong, is it?

Spirit Hall, is it?

Very well. You've already given me cause to kill you!

Bo Saixi watched the farce in the Firmament's Chat Channel without any intention of getting involved. She had already found Mount Lu.

Once she completed Lord Sea God's task, she could leave Mount Lu and return to Sea God Island.
