: Yu Linglong is concentrating on cultivating her mental power. Ever since her father, Yu Xiaogang, taught her the foundation-building chapter of the Changsheng Jue, she's neglected it. It seems her consciousness has reached a bottleneck, and she can only continue to break through after awakening her martial spirit at the age of six.
It's not that Yu Xiaogang doesn't want his daughter to eliminate the hidden hand of the God Realm, but mainly because Yu Linglong is too young and her personality hasn't yet been formed. It's good for her to play around and temper herself.
Yu Linglong's sensitive spiritual perception sensed a familiar breath. When she turned around, she saw Xiao Tuantuan, who happily flew into her arms. Yu Linglong rubbed her hands on the furry clothes transformed from Tuanzi's fur, raised her head, blinked her big golden eyes and asked curiously:
"Sister Tuanzi, why did you come out of your room today? Aren't you going to hibernate? Are you reluctant to leave your cute Linglong?" Xiao Tuantuan squatted down to let Yu Linglong's feet touch the ground, touched Yu Linglong's golden and soft hair, showed her little fangs and laughed:
"Master knows that you have robbed Tang San's small treasury and are going to Notting City for a trip. So Master gave me a gold card, and all expenses can be reimbursed! Is Xiao Linglong happy?"
Yu Linglong's eyes sparkled with stars for an instant. She is indeed her parents' favorite child! Then she immediately left Xiao Tuantuan's warm embrace, holding onto her finger as she headed towards Tang San's room, impatiently saying,
"Let's go! Let's go! Let's go to the amusement park with Xiao San now! I want burgers! Ice cream! And bumper cars!"
Xiao Tuantuan had no choice but to follow Yu Linglong's lead and join Tang San on their journey to Notting City. Notting City now boasts a massive amusement park, many of which are Yu Xiaogang's replicas of Earth's amusement parks. If it weren't for the delivery driver with a magical martial spirit who frequently used a flying spirit guide to fly around, a modern person traveling to Notting City would probably mistake themselves for the future.
After all, soul power is a truly clean energy source, completely harmless to the environment. This allowed Yu Xiaogang and Shenlan to create a more sci-fi aesthetic when transforming Earth's technological artifacts into spirit guides. After all, the spirit guides sold by the Longmen Sect are the finest on Douluo Continent.
All the forces capable of manufacturing soul guides on Douluo Continent now have inextricable ties to the Longmen Sect. This is why Yu Xiaogang has been distributing low-end soul guide technology and releasing much of it through auctions, making him a lucrative profit.
Douluo Continent is rapidly progressing towards the level of the Tang Sect in Douluo II. While some self-righteous nobles and royals still use vintage carriages, soul-guided off-road vehicles are now common on the roads, making communication on Douluo Continent more convenient. There are soul-guided off-road vehicles for transportation, soul-guided mobile phones for communication, and various convenient soul guides for daily life.
Yu Xiaogang possesses the core technology for soul energy batteries, and the gold soul coins he sells for these batteries pile up like a mountain each year. He invests all this money in the Spirit Awakening Hall, starting to compete with the Spirit Hall for civilian soul masters. Qian Xunji is now restricted by Qian Daoliu, unable to attack. After all, the Longmen Sect is incredibly powerful, rivaling the Spirit Hall in high-level combat power. Over the past three years, the Spirit Hall has done more than its fair share of work, with Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong thwarting any attempts at treachery.
This has also exposed the Spirit Hall to Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong's true strength. Qian Daoliu is waiting for Qian Renxue to mature; a few decades is not a stretch he can afford! Qian Xunji has also traveled to the Slaughter City in search of the legendary Divine Test inheritance, but his personality has become even more unpredictable since his release.
The Heaven Dou Empire is suffering the most. After Notting City's independence, the principalities within the Empire have begun to alienate themselves from the Heaven Dou Imperial Family. If it weren't for the Xingluo Empire and the Spirit Hall's vigilance, the Heaven Dou Empire would have been plunged into civil strife long ago.
That same year, the First Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe, was replaced by Qian Renxue. The Second Prince died in an accident, and the Third Prince is recovering from problems with his spirit cultivation. This cast a pall over the Heaven Dou Empire, and they had no time to bother arguing with the Longmen Sect about the ownership of Notting City.
As Yu Linglong and Xiao Tuan Tuan were on their way to find Tang San, Tang San hid the small safe in the bedroom again. Then, he walked to the closet and opened the door. He caught sight of a colorful, beautiful little dress in the sunlight, and his vision went dark.
The men's clothes he'd painstakingly made were replaced by Aunt Liu Erlong, who had replaced them all with women's clothing. Tang San was furious! He'd painstakingly started learning needlework just to be able to wear men's clothing. If it weren't for Teacher Yu Xiaogang, who saw him painstakingly sewing clothes stitch by stitch, and gifted him a small soul-guided sewing machine on his second birthday, Tang San's first use of his Mysterious Jade Hand in Douluo Continent was to make clothes, which frustrated him greatly. Although he was amazed by himself when looking in the mirror while wearing women's clothing, he didn't dare look in the mirror often, fearing his years of perseverance would be shattered.
Tang San's beautiful blue-gold eyes smirked slyly, and he reached into a corner of the wardrobe, touched a small mechanism, and turned it. A clicking sound echoed from within, and a secret drawer popped out from the previously flat wooden floorboards.
Tang San carefully removed a small suitcase from a hidden compartment. He took it to his desk, opened it, and saw a blue-black men's suit inside. A cheerful thought crossed his mind as he lifted it up:
"Heh heh! Aunt Erlong, you didn't expect that! I have a trick up my sleeve! This little hidden trick is no match for a Tang Sect disciple like me! You think you'll get me, Tang San, to submit just by replacing all my wardrobe with women's clothing! That's impossible!"
Tang San relished the playful battle of wits and courage with Liu Erlong. In his previous life within the Tang Sect, he had never experienced such a thing. While Master Bibi Dong and Aunt Liu Erlong would always make him blush, the care and love of his father, Tang Hao, and mother, A Yin, captivated him. He truly enjoyed the affection of his family and friends.
In his previous life, Tang San was merely an orphan adopted by the sect. Many other orphans like him from the outer sect worked tirelessly for the Tang Sect. Back then, Tang San was deeply grateful for the Tang Sect's nurturing and considered it his home.
Tang San tolerated all the bullying from the Tang Clan's inner sect and direct disciples, believing he wasn't good enough. Unwilling to accept that his talent rivaled that of the elder's worthless grandson, he secretly infiltrated the Tang Clan's Scripture Library. The elder guarding the library selflessly taught Tang San the Tang Clan's most advanced martial arts, the Xuantian Treasure Record. He was completely brainwashed and completely devoted to the Tang Clan.
However, after his deception was exposed, Tang San was hunted by the Tang Clan's Elders and ultimately committed suicide by jumping off a cliff at the Ghost-Seeing Cliff. Reborn on the Douluo Continent, he found the care of his teacher and father. Although his mistress and aunt preferred playful behavior, these novel experiences captivated Tang San.
The care he lacked in his previous life was rekindled in this life. He also found a teacher who cared for him and taught him the secrets of a spirit master, and a sister who had grown up with him as a friend. It all felt unreal, and he feared it was all just a dream before his death.
Tang San peered into the suitcase, reading the "Xuantian Baolu" in small script. He'd memorized it from memory, having discovered that the writing on the Douluo Continent differed from that of his past life. He'd written it down as a reminder. Tang San was now torn between whether or not to reestablish the Tang Sect on Douluo Continent. He
found his training life in the Longmen Sect quite enjoyable. He didn't have to accept assassination missions, craft hidden weapons, and sell poisons like he had in the Tang Sect. He also had to kowtow to the sect's direct descendants. In the Longmen Sect, Tang San was the pre-distinguished disciple of the almighty Sect Master, and his father was one of the most powerful Titled Douluo masters on the Douluo Continent. He
felt torn between wanting to give it up and feeling a sense of ingratitude for the Tang Sect's upbringing. Then, his beautiful blue-gold eyes trembled slightly as he picked up his copy of the Xuantian Baolu and began to flip through it.
