At that moment, inside the Notting City Spirit Hall Branch Hall, the Branch Hall Master and the deacons were all anxiously awaiting news from Su Yuntao.

Whether they could get promoted and receive raises depended on this, so none of them could remain calm.

Just then, Su Yuntao, the "great hero," returned.

"Yuntao, you're finally back! How did it go?!"

The moment Su Yuntao entered, the Branch Hall Master anxiously questioned him.

"It's confirmed. Tang Hao of Holy Soul Village should indeed be the Haotian Douluo."

"Oh? Really?! Hahaha, wonderful!"

Upon hearing this, the Branch Hall Master was overjoyed.

With such a major contribution, he had a chance to advance further and be transferred to become the Hall Master of the Martial Soul Main Hall in the capital of Fasinuo Province.

"Yuntao, hurry and tell us, how did you confirm it?"

A Spirit Hall deacon beside him asked.

"When I went to Holy Soul Village, Tang Hao's son, Tang San, happened to be awakening his martial soul as well. You'd never guess what happened when Tang San awakened his martial soul."

Su Yuntao said mysteriously.

"Don't tell me he had Innate Full Soul Power too?"

Someone immediately chimed in.

"Huh? How did you know? But it wasn't just Innate Full Soul Power. He had Twin Martial Souls and Innate Full Soul Power!"

"Twin Martial Souls? Innate Full Soul Power?"

Everyone present immediately cried out in shock.

"That's right, Twin Martial Souls! But Tang San kept his left hand clenched at the time, so I only saw the Blue Silver Grass in his right hand. But how could a trash martial soul like Blue Silver Grass possibly possess Innate Full Soul Power?"

In the original story, Su Yuntao did not know because he was unaware of Tang San's background. Though surprised, he did not connect the dots. After all, while there were cases of Twin Martial Souls, they were exceedingly rare. One might not appear even once in a century.

But now, Su Yuntao knew that Tang San was very likely the son of the Haotian Douluo. Combined with Tang San's tightly clenched left hand, he immediately made the connection.

"Blind Eye Douluo" Su Yuntao was not actually blind, after all.

"Mhm, Yuntao is right. How could a trash martial soul like Blue Silver Grass have Innate Full Soul Power? There must be another powerful martial soul, no question about it!

I'll report this news immediately. Everyone, just wait for your promotions and raises!"

The Branch Hall Master said with wholehearted agreement.

In truth, this Branch Hall Master was mistaken as well. Another prerequisite for Twin Martial Souls was that the two martial souls had to be of comparable quality; there could not be too great a disparity between them.

On the surface, there was also the possibility that Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was not ordinary Blue Silver Grass. It was not necessarily Twin Martial Souls; he might have simply awakened the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul.

"Hall Master, you have to treat us! Our Branch Hall has rendered such a great service, and you have a very good chance of being promoted. It would be unreasonable if you didn't!"

A deacon immediately buttered him up.

"Hahaha, if anyone should treat us, it should be Yuntao. He's the greatest contributor to our Branch Hall!"

"That's right, that's right. Yuntao, I have a niece who's eighteen this year. How about I introduce her to you?"

"Go screw yourself! That eighteen-year-old niece of yours is fat as a ball and heavier than an old sow. How could she be worthy of such a talented young man as Yuntao? My niece would be more suitable!"

Su Yuntao: "..."

I only want Si Si Goddess!

Just as everyone at the Notting City Spirit Hall Branch Hall was preparing to celebrate, the three Holy Soul Village villagers who had been selling goods at the market gradually finished selling their wares and returned to Holy Soul Village.

Thus, that afternoon, Tang Da Chui, who was forging iron at home, received the "Threat Letter" written by Ye Chen.

To Tang Hao.

"Who wrote this?"

Looking at the words "To Tang Hao" on the envelope, Tang Da Chui was rather baffled.

After all, he and Tang San had lived in seclusion in Holy Soul Village without even telling his own elder brother Tang Xiao or his own younger sister Tang Yuehua. No acquaintances knew where they were.

And if it was not an acquaintance, no one would write a letter to a drunkard blacksmith like him.

Tang Da Chui immediately opened the envelope.

—Run! Spirit Hall already knows you are living in seclusion in Holy Soul Village. Qian Daoliu may already be on his way.

"!!!"

There were few words in the letter, but Tang Da Chui's eyes widened.

Tang Da Chui might fear neither heaven nor earth, but he still feared Qian Daoliu, a level 99 Peerless Douluo.

After all, in Tang Da Chui's eyes, he had beaten Qian Daoliu's own son, Qian Xunji, to death. The hatred of murdering one's son was irreconcilable. If Qian Daoliu learned that he was living in seclusion in Holy Soul Village, would he not come and kill him?

Although he had once achieved the glorious feat of crushing three Titled Douluo after becoming a Titled Douluo himself, he definitely could not defeat Qian Daoliu, a Peerless Douluo who had once stood on equal footing with his grandfather Tang Chen.

Not to mention that his hidden injuries were numerous now, and he could no longer use Ring Detonation. Otherwise, he would definitely be finished.

Even if Qian Daoliu was not the one coming, as long as enough people came, he would surely come to no good with his hidden injuries still unhealed.

As for the letter claiming that his identity had been exposed, Tang Da Chui did not doubt its authenticity.

Someone had gone out of their way to write and warn him, and Qian Daoliu's name was even written on it. How could it be fake?

Besides, whether it was true or not, he had to leave Holy Soul Village. He could not take any chances. If Qian Daoliu really came, he would not be able to escape.

"Sigh... I've lived in seclusion in Holy Soul Village for six years. It's time to leave! And Little San's talent is so outstanding that there may yet come a day when we avenge our grievances."

Tang Da Chui immediately decided to flee with Tang San.

Because Tang San had awakened Innate Full Soul Power and Twin Martial Souls, Tang Da Chui was no longer as hopeless as before when facing the powerful Spirit Hall.

In the past, he knew how powerful Spirit Hall was and believed he had no hope of revenge. But now, things were different.

With his own son's talent of Innate Full Soul Power, becoming a Titled Douluo in the future was a certainty. And with Twin Martial Souls, his future achievements would definitely surpass Tang Da Chui's own.

Su Yuntao, Old Jack, and even Tang San himself all believed that Tang San had awakened ordinary Blue Silver Grass. But Tang Da Chui knew that this was definitely not Blue Silver Grass, but the not-yet-fully-awakened Blue Silver Emperor. It was not something ordinary Blue Silver Grass could compare to.

Besides, his family was far from the only one on the continent dissatisfied with Spirit Hall. There were countless people who could become allies against Spirit Hall.

"Little San!"

Tang Da Chui shouted.

"Dad, what is it?"

"We're leaving. It's time to leave Holy Soul Village."

"Uh, Dad, where are we going? Aren't we taking the house?"

Tang San pointed at the shabby wooden hut he had lived in since childhood.

"Where are we going? We'll talk about that later! And is a lousy shack like this worth worrying about?"

Tang Da Chui felt that he might have to flee with his son for some time.

Tang San: "..."

Thus, without saying goodbye to anyone else in Holy Soul Village, the two of them left the village directly.

Oh, and when Tang Hao fled with Tang San, he brought his wife along too.

This left Tang San rather confused. Why did his father have to bring a stalk of Blue Silver Grass when they were moving?
