After Ning Bei explained the Four Single Attribute Sects' attitudes towards the Clear Sky Sect and Spirit Hall, Qian Renxue fell into deep thought. After a long while, she tentatively asked:
"What do you think about me, as the emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire, trying to win over the Four Single Attribute Sects?"
"But you will eventually return to Spirit Hall, won't you?"
"I understand. I won't personally try to win over those Sects. Instead, I'll send people with good status and position in the Heaven Dou Empire. That way, even if I leave the Heaven Dou Empire in the future, it won't affect their allegiance."
After thinking for a while, Ning Bei felt that this method should be feasible. It was better than coercing and enticing them under the name of Spirit Hall. If it really didn't work, they could only take that last step.
"Make your own decisions. Just tell me directly if you need help."
"Okay, once there's progress with these Sects, I'll take you to see my grandfather. Your God Test has also been delayed for quite some time."
Ning Bei nodded in agreement with the Little Angel's arrangement, and his heart also filled with anticipation for the exchange with Qian Daoliu, the Invincible in the Sky Limit Douluo.
After dealing with A'Dai and Hu Liena in the forest next to Slaughter City, Tang San headed straight for the Heaven Dou Empire. On the way, he heard many shocking news from passing merchants and mercenaries.
For example, the Star Luo Empire, which had stood for hundreds of years, had collapsed and changed hands. If he remembered correctly, Dai Mubai was the Second Prince of the Star Luo Royal Family. He wondered how he was doing.
Then there was the news that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, one of the Three Upper Sects, had been slaughtered. This made Tang San even more sensitive because his second Spirit, the Clear Sky Hammer, represented the Clear Sky Sect , one of the Three Upper Sects. Moreover, his Teacher Yu Xiaogang was from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. He had already guessed that it must have been Spirit Hall who did it. Only they had such terrifying power on this continent.
"Does this mean that the Clear Sky Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will also become targets of Spirit Hall? I didn't expect so many things to happen in just two years."
"I wonder where Dad has gone. There hasn't been any news for so many years. Should I go to the Clear Sky Sect to find out?"
"Forget it, I should go to Shrek Academy to see Teacher first. Maybe he can offer some advice on controlling my killing intent."
After muttering to himself for a moment, Tang San walked through the gates of Heaven Dou City and headed straight for Shrek Academy. No matter what, Grandmaster had stood in front to let him leave first when the incident happened. It was necessary to go and see him to let him know he was safe.
The familiar Signboard of Shrek Academy came into view, making Tang San feel as if he were in another world. In fact, he had just returned from another world full of slaughter.
After standing still for a few seconds, Tang San smiled at the gatekeeper on duty:
"Please inform Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang and Dean Flander that I am here to see them."
"Hmm?"
The gatekeeper squinted at Tang San, feeling that this person's appearance was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him for a moment. So he politely said:
"Then you wait a moment, I'll be right back."
"Thank you!"
As the gatekeeper left, Flander's figure appeared outside the gate not long after. He was very surprised to see Tang San and took off his glasses to rub his eyes vigorously.
"Tang San?"
Flander's tone was full of disbelief. After all, he had personally seen the place where Tang San was blocked. With just one glance, he had determined that Tang San was already dead. He didn't expect to see him standing alive in front of him now.
Tang San also understood what he was thinking. He had a good impression of this Dean who was willing to protect him with his life despite not being related to him.
"It's me. Long time no see, Dean Flander."
"It really is you, heavens, Xiao Gang can finally hear some good news!"
Flander was overjoyed for a moment. The recent series of bad news had put Yu Xiaogang on the verge of mental collapse. During this time, he and Liu Erlong had also taken Yu Xiaogang back to the Sect once. Witnessing the tragic state of the place where he was born and raised, Yu Xiaogang vomited blood and fainted on the spot. The last bit of luck in his heart was also shattered. Now that Tang San had returned, it might bring some comfort to his old friend.
Tang San was slightly stunned, and then tentatively asked:
"Is Teacher doing well?"
"Well? Not at all. He's been blaming himself for your matters these past two years, and now that he knows the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has been destroyed, how could he be doing well?"
Mentioning Grandmaster, Flander's long face was full of worry. He then stepped forward, grabbed Tang San's hand, and walked towards the small courtyard in the academy's back garden.
"You should go see him quickly. I reckon only you, his disciple, can help him regain his spirits."
Hearing that the other party was in a very bad situation, the trace of resentment Tang San felt towards Yu Xiaogang disappeared. As a teacher, he hadn't been able to provide any help to his disciple. The Tang God King had almost added him to his little notebook of those deserving death. Now it seemed that the other party was truly thinking of him wholeheartedly, but was limited by his own abilities.
Without stopping Flander, Tang San forcibly suppressed the subconscious habits he had developed in the Slaughter City and followed the other party to the small courtyard behind the mountain.
Before even entering the house, Flander shouted happily.
"Xiao Gang, come see who's back!"
The first to come out upon hearing the voice was Liu Erlong. She was slightly stunned when she saw Tang San behind Flander, and then, like Flander, she opened her mouth with a questioning tone:
"Tang San?"
"It's me, Teacher Erlong."
The familiar voice made Liu Erlong cover her lips and take a few steps back. Then, with a look of surprise in her eyes, she turned and ran towards the house. Before long, she appeared in their sight, pushing Yu Xiaogang, who was sitting in a wheelchair.
The other party's mouth was full of resistance, constantly saying, "Erlong, I said I wanted to be alone for a while, what are you doing?"
But his voice stopped abruptly when he saw Tang San, his lips trembling as he almost cried out.
"Li-Little San?"
"This unfilial disciple, Tang San, has caused Teacher to worry."
No matter what he thought in his heart, Tang San still valued etiquette very much. His words of 'unfilial disciple' brought tears to Grandmaster's eyes.
"Good, good, it's great that you're okay. It's all because Teacher is useless and can't help you."
Time was frantically ravaging this middle-aged man, Yu Xiaogang. In just two years, Tang San could actually see the signs of a dying candle on the other party, which showed that Flander's words at the door were not at all exaggerated.
"This has nothing to do with Teacher. You've already done everything you could. Blame the Spirit Hall for using unscrupulous means."
"Spirit Hall!!!"
Mentioning Spirit Hall, both teacher and disciple gnashed their teeth. They really wanted to rush to Spirit City and turn it upside down.
Seeing that Yu Xiaogang had regained a trace of vitality, Liu Erlong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that Yu Xiaogang's current state wouldn't last long. Now that things had actually taken a turn for the better, after exchanging a glance with Flander, the two of them tactfully left the space to this teacher and disciple who had been reunited after a long separation.
