"Xiaosan, show your uncle."
Tang Hao instructed Tang San.
Nodding slightly, a dark glow flashed in Tang San's left hand, and a small black cylindrical hammer appeared in his grip.
"Good, good, good! It really is the Clear Sky Hammer!"
Seeing the Clear Sky Hammer soul in Tang San's left hand, Tang Xiao was overwhelmed with excitement.
The Spirit Hall was powerful? Yes, indeed. But no matter how powerful they were, as long as the Clear Sky Clan could produce another invincible powerhouse, the Spirit Hall wouldn't dare to act rashly.
Moreover, with his nephew Tang San possessing twin souls and having both him and Tang Hao to help him hunt souls in the future, while he might not surpass their grandfather Tang Chen in terms of level, his actual combat strength—with an unimaginable soul ring and soul bone configuration—would undoubtedly be stronger than Tang Chen!
At this moment, knowing that his nephew was a twin soul master, Tang Xiao could almost see the future of the Clear Sky Clan, not only regaining its former glory but even surpassing it.
"Hao, when you have time, take Xiaosan to visit Yuehua."
Tang Xiao did not mention anything about Tang Hao returning to the clan.
To be honest, the Clear Sky Clan had indeed suffered greatly because of Tang Hao.
Years ago, due to the matter with Qian Xunji, the Clear Sky Clan was forced into seclusion, suffering heavy losses. Not to mention whether the other members of the clan were willing to accept Tang Hao back, just the fact that Tang Hao had recently provoked the Spirit Hall once again meant the Clear Sky Clan dared not let him return. Otherwise, it would undoubtedly bring disaster upon them again.
"Alright."
Tang Hao nodded.
At this moment, Tang Xiao turned his gaze toward Xiao Wu.
"Sigh~"
Looking at Xiao Wu, then at Tang San, and finally at Tang Hao, Tang Xiao sighed.
What a mess!
To be honest, due to the presence of a concealing soul bone skill, although Tang Xiao had vaguely felt something odd about Xiao Wu's aura before, he hadn't seen through her identity as a transformed soul beast. He had simply assumed that his nephew had found himself a talented "good little sister."
Who would have thought that Tang San had actually walked the same path as Tang Hao?
However, matters of the heart were not something he could interfere with.
Tang Xiao understood well that when elders claimed to be acting "for your own good" in such matters, it often had the opposite effect.
Besides, aside from her identity as a transformed soul beast, Xiao Wu was an extremely talented genius soul master. Such individuals were highly sought after by all forces in the soul master world—how could they possibly push her away?
"Hao, take care!"
Without staying any longer, Tang Xiao patted Tang Hao's shoulder before flying off.
After a while, Tang Hao withdrew his gaze and turned to Xiao Wu, his expression tinged with guilt.
"I didn't expect that soul bone skill to be seen through by someone stronger. Xiao Wu, the human world is dangerous. Until Xiaosan has grown strong enough, you should return to the forest for now."
At first, Tang Hao had intended for Xiao Wu to willingly sacrifice herself to benefit his son, Tang San. But after the recent battle, he had reconsidered and realized that his original plan was flawed.
If arranged properly, his precious son had ten full slots for one-hundred-thousand-year soul rings—one for the ninth ring of the Blue Silver Grass soul, and nine for the Clear Sky Hammer soul.
Compared to this massive need for ten one-hundred-thousand-year soul rings, Xiao Wu alone was far from enough.
Moreover, as a transformed soul beast, Xiao Wu had undoubtedly been one of the dominators of the Star Dou Forest in the past. If there were other one-hundred-thousand-year soul beasts in the forest, she must know about them, right?
Since that was the case, why not let Xiao Wu act as an informant and reveal the whereabouts of the other one-hundred-thousand-year soul beasts in the Star Dou Forest?
Even though he was not at his peak, hunting one-hundred-thousand-year soul beasts was still possible. Besides, if necessary, he could call upon his brother Tang Xiao to hunt alongside him.
This way, not only could his beloved son avoid the painful path he had walked, but they could also acquire one-hundred-thousand-year soul rings and soul bones to strengthen themselves.
Tsk, what a perfect plan!
Hearing this, Xiao Wu's expression froze.
Could it be that I misunderstood before?
Was Third Brother's father not deliberately trying to send me to my death just to help Third Brother?
That's right! How could smart Sister Xiao Wu believe the one-sided words of the enemy? That was completely unreasonable!
Wu wu~ Uncle, I wronged you!
Hmph—evil Spirit Hall!
After half an hour of reluctant farewells and promising to meet again, a tearful Xiao Wu left.
"Xiao Wu, wait for me. In five years, I will come to find you!"
Watching the back of his beloved Xiao Wu as she departed, Tang San swore silently in his heart.
"Xiaosan, train hard! Your strength is still too weak, and you don't have the ability to protect Xiao Wu."
Tang Hao patted Tang San's shoulder.
"Father, please train me strictly!"
Tang San said with a determined expression.
Late Night, Spirit City, Worship Hall
"Greetings, Grand Worship!"
Lion, Thousand Jun, and Demon Subduer bowed to Qian Daoliu, who stood in the hall before the Angel God statue, his back facing them.
"You've returned. How did things go?"
Turning around, Qian Daoliu, with golden hair and dressed in a blue robe, looked like a man in his early thirties. His expression was calm as he asked.
"Grand Worship, everything was going smoothly at first, but then Tang Xiao intervened, and the plan failed at the last moment."
Lion Douluo replied with a guilty expression.
Hearing this, Qian Daoliu raised an eyebrow but soon relaxed and waved his hand indifferently.
"A failure is just a failure. Whether it's Tang Hao or Tang Xiao, neither is significant to the overall situation. In the future, let them be trials for Xiaoxue."
Ever since Qian Renxue awakened with an unprecedented innate rank 20 soul power in the Angel Clan, Qian Daoliu knew that while the Spirit Hall might face setbacks, the one to have the last laugh would undoubtedly be them.
Because of this, Qian Daoliu had grown indifferent to many things.
From that moment on, he desired nothing more in life—so long as his granddaughter, Qian Renxue, could become a god and spread the Angel's radiance across the continent, that would be enough. Nothing else mattered.
After a moment, Qian Daoliu spoke again.
"That's enough. Don't dwell on this matter. Go and rest."
"Yes, Grand Worship!"
The three bowed again before leaving the hall.
A while later, a faint chuckle echoed within the empty hall.
"Tang Hao, Tang Xiao? Heh~"
Ten Days Later
That afternoon, all the participating teams from the Heaven Dou Division finally arrived in Spirit City.
Due to the city's special regulations, Xue Qinghe ordered the Royal Knights to remain stationed outside. He then led the sixteen participating teams, including the Heaven Dou Team, into Spirit City.
Compared to Heaven Dou City, Spirit City was much smaller—not even one-tenth its size. However, the shock it brought to soul masters was immense.
Despite its small size, Spirit City's walls were built to the specifications of an imperial capital. The towering 80-meter-high walls looked imposing from the outside, with a thickness exceeding 30 meters, made entirely of granite.
Leaving aside other aspects, just constructing the city walls of Spirit City was an enormous project, requiring an unimaginable amount of manpower and resources.
Even the guards patrolling the walls were not ordinary city guards but soul masters belonging to the Spirit Hall.
Moreover, unlike ordinary cities that were square or rectangular, Spirit City was hexagonal, meaning it had six walls.
On these six walls, there were six massive relief carvings—Sword, Dragon, Hammer, Chrysanthemum, Ghost, and Crown—each symbolizing a powerful soul.
To greet the participating teams from the Heaven Dou Division, a red-clothed cardinal from Spirit Hall personally came. Under his guidance, the group of over two hundred people was quickly settled into a hotel on the western side of Spirit City.
