Return To Clear Sky School (1)

In order to defeat Tang San, Hu Liena had spent these five years completely on bitter training. Not only did she brave dangers alone, entering Slaughter City to obtain the Deathgod Domain, her own efforts had also garnered enormous results. She already surpassed her elder brother Xie Yue in spirit power, reaching the fifty ninth rank, only the final bottleneck to the sixtieth rank.

As Bibi Dong saw her this hard working she once said that losing really wasn't always a bad thing, as long as one could transform the pain of defeat into momentum for cultivation like Hu Liena, defeat would turn from bad to good.

Even though the loss of three spirit bones was originally painful for Spirit Hall, as the holy land of the Continent's Spirit Masters, these things were still within their tolerance.

At least Hu Liena hadn't let her down, returning as a holder of the Deathgod Domain.

With these two matters made clear, the present Spirit Hall senior members were all somewhat disapproving. These two matters were basically unrelated to them, and generally speaking, it would only require an imperial order to notify them.

Was there a need to mobilize all these people and gather them here? In fact, the people here were gathered from the width of the continent, some travelling more than thirty days.

Of course, the people in the know all knew that the most crucial item of this meeting was still the third.

Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong's gaze gradually became serious,

"With the passage of time, the strength our Spirit Hall possesses becomes more and more tremendous, there are constantly new outstanding Spirit Masters joining. But there is also a constant drain of Spirit Masters. On the Continent, even though we are the largest gathering of Spirit Masters, we're not the only one. Far from all Spirit Masters will listen to Spirit Hall's dispatches. Especially some powers, who pay even less attention to Spirit Hall. In order to improve these circumstances, to unite all factions of Spirit Masters even further, I have decided to begin the Spirit Hunting Operation. To deliver a fatal strike to those who have the courage to pay lip service to Spirit Hall. At the same time, the seven great sects that have existed for so many years, should also be readjusted."

The words Spirit Hunting Operation, were like throwing an explosive spirit tool into the meeting, the entire conference room was immediately like a bursting pan. As the most senior echelon of Spirit Hall, the altogether more than twenty people present had all previously heard about this Spirit Hunting Operation.

Originally, it was raised when Bibi Dong had just assumed her position, only to be forcefully suppressed by Elder Hall.

The old business of twenty years ago was raised anew. Looking at the expression in Bibi Dong's eyes, they understood that this time this operation might truly be carried out. Her Holiness wouldn't shoot without aim, she should already have prepared everything in advance.

"Quiet."

With a thump, Bibi Dong sharply slapped the table, formidable pressure immediately erupting from her.

Under her accumulated might, the meeting hall immediately quieted down.

The light of power radiated in Bibi Dong's eyes,

"Calling you here today isn't to have you discuss it, but to declare orders. I have already discussed this matter with the elders of Elder Hall. The Spirit Hunting Operation will formally begin in one month. It will rely mainly on people dispatched by Supreme Pontiff Hall, each Spirit Temple and Master Hall will move strictly according to the orders issued by Supreme Pontiff Hall, there must be no mistakes. I will personally participate in the implementation process of this Spirit Hunting Operation. If there is any careless mistake, don't blame me, Bibi Dong, for being merciless."

Having waited patiently for twenty years, Bibi Dong would finally begin to move. Slowly raising her head, looking at the luxurious domed ceiling of the meeting hall. 'Teacher, in those days you died at the hand of Clear Sky School's Tang Hao, it's time to avenge you.'

'This time, nobody can stop me again. Seven great sects, Clear Sky School, hmph, I will let you learn who the true master of this Continent is.'

...

Star Dou Great Forest.

Shaded by the trees, the vast forest was brimming with a fresh and clean atmosphere. Just at the heart of this world famous great forest, there was a not very large lake. If one didn't actually come here, it would be very difficult to believe that there was actually such a marvel in the middle of the forest.

The lake wasn't very large, only a hundred meters in diameter or so, but the crystal clear mirror-like surface reflected the trees on either side.

On the side of the water was still an even more bizarre scene.

A young woman in a white dress sat quietly under a large tree, holding her knees. She stared foolishly at the water in front of her, her thoughts unknown.

Her glossy black supple long hair was draped over her shoulders and scattered, scattered across the grass. The sight of her was touching.

Her delicate features wore a gentle expression, her appearance so beautiful, so perfectly in harmony with the surrounding beautiful scenery, that she was like the crucial focus of a painting.

Behind this gentle and beautiful young woman, quietly crouched an incomparably enormous chimpanzee. Its giant body crouched there like a mountain. By comparison, the beautiful young woman was delicate and tiny.

The gaze of this giant chimpanzee was very soft, always focused on the young woman in front of it. It was they that formed the bizarre part of this picture.

The young woman sitting there was Xiao Wu, and behind her was naturally the Titan Giant Ape Er Ming[1].

In five years back at Heaven Dou Great Forest, besides dry and dull cultivating, she liked sitting by the lakeside, quietly watching the water. As for what she thought, only she herself knew.

At this moment, suddenly, with a loud splash, an enormous head shot out of the lakewater in front of Xiao Wu.

That was a bull head, at least four meters in diameter, two eyes the size of lanterns flickering with light. Strangely, connected behind this bull head wasn't the body of a bull, but rather a dark cyan enormous snake body, even even thicker than a water barrel.

Even though most of it was still soaking in the water, the part exposed above the surface was enough to shock anyone.

Looking at this suddenly appearing bullhead, Xiao Wu didn't feel any sense of astonishment. Sensing the deep concern in those lantern sized eyes, her charming face revealed a faint smiling expression,

"Da Ming[2], why did you come out now?"

The bull headed serpent bodied monster issued a low growl, unexpectedly spitting out human words,

"Xiao Wu-jie[3], I really don't like it when you look this lonely. It's been five years, but you're always like this. Don't tell me the human world really is so good?"

This bull headed serpent bodied monster was the Star Dou Great Forest's emperor, the Sky Blue Bull Python. It was just like the Titan Giant Ape, its cultivation already having reached the hundred thousand year level, only they didn't choose to take human form.

They also very rarely revealed their true strength in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Of course, practically no humans could come to this place. As the Star Dou Great Forest that held the most formidable spirit beasts, this central area was forbidden ground.

Xiao Wu looked distracted a moment, lowering her head and chuckling,

"No, I'm not thinking about the human world, but rather about my friends there. Da Ming, Er Ming, don't worry about me. I'm alright."

Even though she said this, in her innermost heart, she was filled with longing, 'Ge, are you still well right now? I don't know how long before I can see you again. Don't worry, I will work hard at cultivating. Once I've reached the mature stage, I'll definitely go find you.'

The Titan Giant Ape Er Ming crouching behind Xiao Wu said in a low voice:

"Xiao Wu-jie, those humans we ran into in the forest not long ago escaped and went back. No matter how much you long to return to the world of humans, don't leave the Star Lake for now. Here, me and big brother can protect you better."

The Sky Blue Bull Python snorted coldly,

"Let them come. If we weren't away back then, how would aunt have..."

Hearing his words, Xiao Wu's face suddenly became pale, and Da Ming hurriedly stopped speaking, anxiously gathering its big head in front of Xiao Wu,

"I'm sorry, Xiao Wu-jie, I didn't mean to worry you."

Xiao Wu silently shook her head,

"It's been so many years. It's alright. However, I've already found the enemy that murdered mother. One day, I will definitely personally kill her and avenge mother."

The Sky Blue Bull Python's big eyes blinked,

"Xiao Wu-jie, tell us a story about your time in the human world. Is the human world really so interesting?"

Even though they were the most formidable spirit beasts in this Star Dou Great Forest, they had never left the forest.

Spending every day absorbing the essence of Heaven and earth, they were just like Xiao Wu when she had just left, their hearts like blank paper.

Er Ming also sat down, equally expectantly looking at Xiao Wu.

Seeing their naive appearances, Xiao Wu couldn't keep a giggle from escaping. Who could have imagined the king of the forest and the emperor of the forest looking like this.

Her eyes revealing fluctuations of emotions, she seemed to see in front of her the scene of the time she first met Tang San. With a faint smile, she began her tale.

To her, the less than ten years together with Tang San were far, far more wonderful than her past hundred thousand years of cultivating.

The two big shots of the spirit beast kingdom, the Sky Blue Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape listened quietly. They were already immersed in Xiao Wu's story.

...

Dressed in white, Twenty Four Moonlit Bridges fastened to his waist, and the Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse hanging from it. This was Tang San's complete attire.

If not for the directions of the map his father gave him leading here, Tang San really would have found it very difficult to believe that the Spirit Master world's number one sect, the Clear Sky School, would actually be in a place like this.
