Forces Stir on All Sides

"Not bad, but to be honest, compared to your current... somewhat carefree appearance, your previous thoughtful demeanor seemed more composed. Since you're clear-headed, let's not talk about that. News has come from the Heaven Dou Empire that Yu Yuanzhen will be heading to the Star Luo Empire, preparing to unite with the Clear Sky Sect and the Star Luo Imperial Family family to guard against our Spirit Hall's surprise attack on his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and also intending to unite against our Spirit Hall. Therefore, I plan to send you and Zhu Zhuqing to the Star Luo Empire. This mission offers a high degree of freedom; you're in charge of the entire process. However, I have only one requirement: no matter what you do, I don't want to see the two great empires joining forces, or the Clear Sky Sect emerging from seclusion!"

Bibi Dong nodded. After her thoughts were clear, Yu Tianshuang's temperament was completely different from before. Although he still looked cold and stern with sharp features, after looking at him for a while, she felt that there was something strange about him now.

"It's Qian Renxue, right? Actually, I've always wanted to ask, what exactly is your relationship with her? She's Qian Daoliu's granddaughter, and she says you're her older sister, but from the first time I met her and helped her deliver the letter, the way she acted all coy towards you made me feel like we weren't really sisters. And I know you and Qian Xunji are master and disciple, right?"

That old codger Yu Yuanzhen, despite his rugged appearance, is surprisingly shrewd. He originally planned to have Bibi Dong send experts to raid the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan as soon as Xiao Wu's matter was settled. Now that he dares to go to the Star Luo Empire alone, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan must be deserted by now. And the person who can relay messages from the Heaven Dou Empire is undoubtedly Qian Renxue.

"Yu Tianshuang, do you know? You're very curious these days. Sometimes, too much curiosity can get you killed... Never mind, although I haven't completely let go of this matter, I'm not so fixated on it anymore. Qian Renxue, she, she is my daughter, the daughter I had with the former Pope, my teacher, Qian Xunji."

Although Bibi Dong hadn't taken these matters so seriously since the incident with Yu Xiaogang, the thought of that dark night, the locked room, and her usually stern teacher ravaging and humiliating her like a wild beast still lingered in her mind. Thinking of this, her delicate hands clenched tightly. She admired Yu Tianshuang for this; at such a young age, she could let go so easily—a magnanimity she herself aspired to possess.

"Life is fleeting, a mere hundred years. Even Titled Douluo only lives for a few hundred years. The pain and unforgettable events we experience will gradually fade and disappear in the long river of time. In the end, when we look back, the obsessions we cared so much about back then were just ripples in our long lives. The past should not be a shackle that binds us, but rather a guiding light on our path forward."

It was clear that many unimaginable things had happened between her, Qian Renxue, and Qian Xunji, so much so that this extremely shrewd and languid Pope could clearly sense her emotions at this moment. It was he who had asked her unintentionally about these painful past events. Although he did not expect her to tell him, he still had to comfort this peerless queen.

"Alright, I just said you're different from your old self, and now you're giving me all this high-sounding advice. Do I, the Pope of the Spirit Hall, need a little brat like you to comfort me? Get back to your mission and get on it! If you fail again, see how I deal with you when I get back!"

After listening to Yu Tianshuang's words and carefully considering them, Bibi Dong found that the things weighing on her heart seemed to have faded a bit. However, the thought that she had actually been enlightened by a young man of about 20 years old made her a little angry. She waved her hand and said in an impatient manner.

In the Star Dou Great Forest, after agreeing to leave with Da Ming and Er Ming, Tang San was in immense pain. Fortunately, his beloved Xiao Wu still had a chance to be resurrected, which filled him with renewed fighting spirit. Just wait, Xiao Wu, I will definitely bring you back to life! Yu Tianshuang, Spirit Hall, you will pay the price!

"What's going on? It's so hot, my back feels like it's been burned. It's actually the Eight Spider Soul Bone, it's evolved? What are these armors? They seem to link all the Soul Bone together, so powerful. I wonder if I can defeat Yu Tianshuang in my current state."

Feeling the amplified power of this armor, formed by linking all the Soul Bone in his body together with the Eight Spider Soul Bone at its core, Tang San couldn't help but think of Yu Tianshuang. However, Yu Tianshuang's ever-present calm and confident demeanor still made him a little uneasy. "It's alright, I believe I will eventually surpass you."

"Senior Tai Tan, I've come here because I have something important to discuss with you..."

After returning to the Heaven Dou Empire, Tang San first went to the Shrek Academy to see his master's wife and Dean Flender. Then he caught up with Ma Hongjun and others. He immediately went to the territory of the Strength Clan. He now understood that if he wanted to fight against Yu Tianshuang and the Spirit Hall, he needed to have his own power. The Strength Clan, one of the Four Single-Attribute Sects, was the only connection he had at the moment.

"Young Master!"

"Boom! That Yu Tianshuang and the Spirit Hall are utterly despicable! Not only did they persecute our master, but now they're targeting our young master! Young master, rest assured, our Strength Clan will absolutely support you. Tang Sect? No problem with that. Young master truly has the demeanor of a master. To fight against such a massive force as the Spirit Hall, one man alone is definitely not enough. As for the sect's location, I think it should be within our Strength Clan's territory. Whatever you wish to do, young master, I, Tai Tan, will fully support you!"

After listening to Tang San's experiences and his idea of establishing a sect, Tai Tan angrily slammed his fist on the table and then spoke to Tang San.

"In that case, Senior Tai Tan, you are now the chief elder of my Tang Sect, possessing the greatest power besides mine!"

Tang San hadn't expected things to go so smoothly. Tai Tan was almost always accommodating to his requests. He had initially thought there would be some twists and turns, but it seemed that his father's position in their hearts was indeed unparalleled.

"Sect Master, this is perfect! To build a force comparable to the Spirit Hall, my Strength Clan alone is not enough. It just so happens that the Four Single-Attribute Clans gather every two years. Why don't you come with me and bring the other three single-attribute sects under our control?"

Tai Tan's loyalty to Tang Hao and his son is truly beyond question. He has only just joined the Tang Sect and he has already begun to think about the future of the Tang Sect. If the Four Single-Attribute Sects can be reunited, then the Tang Sect will become a force that the Spirit Hall cannot ignore!
