Chapter 105: Yu Xiaogang: Fortunately, I Didn't Accept Su Yun Back Then!
Hearing the familiar voice, Yu Xiaogang reflexively ran to the door and quickly opened it. As the door swung open with a bang, two figures flashed past him and rushed into his room. Yu Xiaogang hurriedly closed the door and turned around, his expression instantly becoming excited.
The visitor removed his hood, revealing his face. It was Tang Hao, who had been missing for four years. However, when the shorter figure beside Tang Hao took off his hood, Yu Xiaogang was startled.
"Who is this ugly guy? Where is my Xiao San?"
"Teacher, don't you recognize me? I'm Tang San," Tang San said, noticing that Yu Xiaogang didn't recognize him.
"No, you're not. I don't have such an ugly disciple," Yu Xiaogang thought. Tang San's face was covered in wrinkles, looking twisted and unrecognizable.
Honestly, even Tang Hao wouldn't dare to confirm this ugly man was his son, if not for the uniqueness of Tang San's twin martial spirits.
"Master, he really is my son, your disciple Xiao San," Tang Hao explained. "Xiao San, show your twin martial spirits to your teacher."
Following Tang Hao's words, Tang San displayed his Blue Silver Grass and Sky Hammer.
Seeing the twin martial spirits and hearing Tang Hao's words, Yu Xiaogang finally believed that this ugly person was indeed his disciple Tang San.
"But Xiao San, how did your face become like this?!" Yu Xiaogang asked in confusion.
How had his once delicately handsome disciple's face become as rough as tree bark in just a few years, causing revulsion at the sight?
Tang Hao then explained the incident when he awakened Tang San's martial spirit and how it was influenced by Su Yun.
Hearing this, Yu Xiaogang's face showed anger.
"What?! Su Yun took the opportunity for Xiao San's martial spirit evolution?!"
"Indeed!"
"I knew that boy was rebellious. Now, thinking about it, I'm glad I didn't accept him as a disciple, or he would have eventually ruined my reputation!"
Yu Xiaogang's disdain for Su Yun deepened.
"Did the Spirit Hall discover you during this escape?" Yu Xiaogang asked.
"No," Tang Hao shook his head. "Years have passed, and although the Spirit Hall has been searching for us, we've remained undetected under the principle of 'the darkest place is under the candlestick.'"
"I brought Xiao San here because I noticed the surveillance on you from the Spirit Hall has decreased, making it safer to bring him out."
Throughout the night, Tang Hao shared most of his plans with Yu Xiaogang. He saw Yu Xiaogang as a potential ally, being the biological son of Yu Yuanzhen, the current head of the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan.
"Good!"
"To overthrow the Spirit Hall and restore order and peace between the two empires, your and my ideas align perfectly," Yu Xiaogang was pleased with Tang Hao's proposal.
Yu Xiaogang harbored deep dissatisfaction with the Spirit Hall, even hatred. They not only expelled him from the Spirit Hall but also stripped him of his master title, making him a laughingstock across the continent. If not for his friend, Flender, who recognized his true talents, Yu Xiaogang would have been utterly destitute.
"The Spirit Hall, relying on its power, brazenly threatens the two empires, even taking their money and distributing it to other spirit masters."
"Now, many spirit masters only have eyes for the Spirit Hall, and no longer for the two great empires."
"Hmph! They don't think, without the funding from the two empires, would the Spirit Hall have money to give to them?" Yu Xiaogang said indignantly, "Truly a bunch of ingrates."
Tang San, listening to his father and Yu Xiaogang's conversation, felt his bad impression of the Spirit Hall deepen.
'The Spirit Hall is just using others' money for their own purposes, isn't it?'
If Su Yun were to hear their conversation, he'd probably laugh. Whether the two empires would subsidize low-level spirit masters without the Spirit Hall is debatable.
For an empire, what they need most isn't necessarily spirit masters. It's the oppressed commoners and soldiers with combat capabilities.
As the old saying goes, 'a hero using martial arts can break the law'. A powerful Title Douluo could make every emperor constantly fear assassination. Thus, these emperors wish there were fewer powerful spirit masters.
In other words, without providing a livelihood guarantee for these low-level spirit masters, how could they dedicate themselves to cultivation like the disciples of large sects?
The existence of the Spirit Hall, however, forcibly took a portion of the money from the two empires to give to the common people.
This is why most spirit masters on the Douluo Continent hold a measure of respect for the Spirit Hall.
"So, are you going back to Haotian Sect first?" Yu Xiaogang asked after hearing Tang Hao's plan.
"Correct," Tang Hao nodded. "I need to seek forgiveness from my sect first, then look for opportunities to ally with other sects and the two empires."
"Currently, the Spirit Hall still openly has the most Title Douluos and countless spirit masters under its command. None of us can confront it alone."
"Only by uniting the forces oppressed by it across the continent can we have a chance to overthrow the Spirit Hall."
Tang Hao patted Tang San on the shoulder and looked at Yu Xiaogang, "Master, although Xiao San's level hasn't increased much in these years, only reaching level 22 soul power, his talent is extremely high. He can briefly solidify killing intent to influence the enemy. This is already the rudimentary form of the Killing God Domain!"
Killing City? Killing God Domain? What are these?
Yu Xiaogang was momentarily overwhelmed by these two new terms from Tang Hao.
How could Yu Xiaogang, with only level 29 soul power, know about the Killing God Domain?
In the original story, before Tang San and Hu Liena obtained the Killing God Domain, only Tang Hao and Bibi Dong on the Douluo Continent had achieved it.
This was something only high-level spirit masters knew, and naturally, Yu Xiaogang was unaware.
However, from Tang Hao's tone, Yu Xiaogang could tell the power of the 'Killing God Domain'.
"So, Master, I am entrusting Xiao San back to you now. I hope you can do me a favor."
