Chapter 47: Tang San's reputation is ruined, and his family fortune is nearly depleted!

Time flew by in the blink of an eye, and three days had passed.

During these three days, no major events occurred in the world where Zhu Chen and the others resided; everything remained very peaceful.

Wang Lin had been busy preparing for his duel with Hong Die, as well as planning how to escape after the battle.

Uzumaki Naruto had gone off to train with Jiraiya.

As for Zhu Chen, he remained immersed in the Ancestral Stone Space, meticulously tracing the latter half of the Original True Interpretation.

The further one progressed into the content of the Original True Interpretation, the more complex the information contained within the runes became. Even though he was merely making rubbings, it required a significant amount of energy and time.

However, Zhu Chen was enjoying himself.

He knew very well in his heart that if he could transcribe the entire complete version of the Original True Interpretation, the benefits would be infinite.

However, in contrast to the tranquility of the other worlds, the Douluo World had been thrown into chaos these past few days.

First, the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy, jointly organized by the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire, was forced to be canceled.

The reason was that Tang San had violated regulations and refused the sanctions of the Spirit Hall, leading a crowd in open rebellion.

After a fierce battle between the two sides, a corner of Spirit City was destroyed, and countless casualties were suffered within the city.

Left with no choice, Spirit Hall had to cancel the tournament and reclaim the three champion spirit bones.

Meanwhile, Tang San had abandoned his "companions," taking Xiao Wu and leaving Spirit City with his father.

Another matter was that the sects and clans near the Heaven Dou Empire had all suffered an unprecedented massive looting.

The looted sects even included first-rate powers such as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and the Heaven Dou Imperial Family.

To everyone's surprise, the person responsible for the looting was none other than Tang San.

Because of this incident, Tang San was not only placed on Spirit Hall's wanted list, but the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan also loathed him to the bone.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, in particular.

They never could have imagined that just after they had helped Tang San resist the hegemony of Spirit Hall, Tang San would turn around and steal their entire home.

Almost all the spiritual herbs and precious medicines that the sect had stockpiled for years were looted clean.

Not a single plant was left for them.

...

At this moment.

Inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Ning Fengzhi sat in the Sect Leader's chair with a grim expression, his eyes filled with regret.

He had previously taken a liking to Tang San because the boy had given his daughter an immortal herb, raising her martial soul by two ranks. Furthermore, since the boy was Tang Hao's son and backed by the Clear Sky School, he had wanted to cultivate a relationship with him for both public and private reasons.

But he never expected that Tang San would take advantage of their absence from the sect to rob them of their spiritual herbs and precious medicines.

No wonder the boy immediately fled with his father after the battle in Spirit City.

It turns out he was timing it perfectly to strike them here.

Had he known the boy was such a person, he would have joined forces with Spirit Hall to capture him earlier.

"Fengzhi, do you think that Tang San might believe you exposed his lover's identity, and that's why he deliberately came to loot our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

Just as Ning Fengzhi was drowning in regret, Bone Douluo, standing beside him, suddenly rested his chin on his hand and offered an analysis.

"It is not impossible," Chen Xin added with a heavy expression. "In the last battle, although Tang Hao suppressed the Spirit Hall Pope and many elders, he was also injured himself. I believe he must have wanted to use spiritual medicines to recover from his injuries, which is why he came to rob us. After all, some of those precious herbs are only possessed by great sects like ours."

Hearing this, Bone Douluo could no longer restrain himself.

He let out an angry snort and said, "Back then, the Clear Sky School ignored the survival of its subordinate forces just to protect itself and closed its gates. Now, this Tang Hao and his son are committing such acts; they are truly selfish to the extreme. I now seriously suspect that his initial approach to us—giving Rongrong the immortal herb and selling us secret weapons—was merely to use us against Spirit Hall."

Hearing this, Sword Douluo could not help but sigh softly. "Although our Three Great Sects publicly claim to be closely linked and to advance or retreat together, in reality, there has been constant maneuvering and hidden strife between us over the years. That Tang Hao likely wanted to use this opportunity to weaken the strength of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to solidify the Clear Sky School's position at the head of the Three Great Sects."

Bone Douluo gritted his teeth and said, "It's a good thing the Spirit Hall Pope didn't make things difficult for us last time, otherwise, we certainly wouldn't have left Spirit City so easily."

The situation analyzed by Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo caused Ning Fengzhi's already grim face to darken even further.

That Tang Hao and his son were ambitious, selfish, and stabbed their allies in the back; his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would henceforth be irreconcilable with them.

"I didn't expect Third Brother to be such a person..."

Outside the main hall, listening to the conversation of Ning Fengzhi and the others, Ning Rongrong's image of Tang San instantly collapsed.

She had thought Tang San was a good leader who could lead the Shrek Seven Devils toward glory.

She never imagined that his previous actions were all calculated with a purpose.

Fortunately, Spirit Hall discovered it early and exposed the true colors of the father and son; otherwise, she might still be kept in the dark.

...

Meanwhile.

In the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

"Patriarch, the matter has been investigated. That Tang San is indeed the disciple of Uncle Xiao Gang, and it seems Uncle Xiao Gang and Liu Erlong have already..."

"Rebellious son!"

Yu Yuanzhen directly interrupted the clansman, lunging up from his chair and shouting furiously, "Immediately issue an order to bind that rebellious son Yu Xiaogang and bring him back..."

"Yes, Patriarch."

Seeing the fury on Yu Yuanzhen's face, the clansman reporting the intelligence did not dare to say another word. He quickly complied and turned to run away.

Yu Yuanzhen was now of advanced age and nearing the end of his lifespan. He had been in secluded cultivation within the clan, attempting to seek a breakthrough to extend his life by another hundred years.

However, just as he emerged from his failed seclusion, he heard the younger generation speaking of the clan being looted.

And the person who looted the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was the disciple of his rebellious son.

He had nearly died of anger at that moment.

Afterward, Yu Yuanzhen immediately sent people to investigate the matter.

Originally, he had held a sliver of hope in his heart.

But just now, as the clansman brought back the detailed intelligence, his heart died completely.

He felt that this must be something his rebellious son did to get revenge on him.

After all, he had vehemently opposed the marriage between the boy and his cousin, Liu Erlong, and had personally driven him out of the clan.

To give the clan an explanation, Yu Yuanzhen decided this time to prioritize justice over family.

Even if his rebellious son was a useless waste, he would bring him back this time and place him under house arrest.

Without his permission, that rebellious son would not be able to step a single foot out of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan again.

...

However, regarding the events happening in the outside world, Tang San, the "instigator," was completely unaware.

At this moment, under Tang Hao's guidance, he was practicing with Xiao Wu beneath a waterfall.

Tang Hao had originally wanted Xiao Wu to return to the Star Dou Great Forest first. After all, her cultivation was currently not high, and staying by his son's side would only make her a burden; if she were captured by someone and turned into a spirit ring, wouldn't his son lose a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring in the future?

However, at Tang San's insistence, Tang Hao finally agreed to let Xiao Wu stay.

It was just that watching these two flaunt their affection in front of him every day made Tang Hao feel quite uncomfortable.

After all, he was a normal man!

And a bachelor who had been single for over a decade!

Watching a young couple flirting in front of him every day—how could he stand it?

Especially that Xiao Wu; it was one thing for her to jump around in front of him every day in a short skirt that exposed her midriff, but she actually insisted on practicing those high-exposure flexibility techniques!

To Tang Hao, this was simply torture.

For the past few days, he had to go down to the waterfall every night to cool off and quench the fire just to be able to sleep; otherwise, he couldn't sleep at all!

...

And while Tang Hao was busy cooling off.

Deep within the Sunset Forest.

Following Lin Dong's guidance, Han Li and Xiao Yan had already completed their rendezvous at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

"It seems that Tang San guy didn't lie to us; this place really is a naturally occurring treasury of precious medicines..."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's take them quickly."

"Look over there, that spring water is also quite good. The convergence of Yin and Yang forces makes it a rare material for alchemy!"
