Tai Nuo was quickly swallowed by that mass of black flames, disappearing completely.
Lying on the ground, Tai Long witnessed it all with his own eyes and was overwhelmed with grief.
"Why did you do this?!"
Tai Long glared at Yan with hatred and questioned him.
Yan glanced at him.
"You shouldn't have listened to Tang San and forged hidden weapons that could threaten the lives of soul masters. Take you for example after years of painstaking cultivation, in the end, you're defeated by a lethal hidden weapon. How would you feel? Such evil weapons that disrupt the balance of the soul master world must not be allowed to exist."
After hearing that, Tai Long was left speechless.
"Seeing you in such pain, let me end it for you!"
Yan didn't want to say anything more. A mass of scorching black flames instantly enveloped Tai Long.
In just a moment, he was completely consumed.
Right after, Yan moved on to other battles.
On the other side.
Looking at Tai tan's corpse, Yue Guan's face revealed a faint, sinister smile.
"So overconfident. Without your Strength Clan, let's see who else dares forge evil hidden weapons for Tang San."
Turning around, Yue Guan saw Yan and smiled:
"Yan, how's the situation?"
"Tai Nuo and Tai long have both been killed by me. The rest are pretty much done as well."
Yue Guan nodded in satisfaction.
"Very good. Tai tan has also been dealt with."
"Teacher, shall we take a look at their warehouse?"
"Alright."
The two of them then headed to the forging area of the Strength Clan, where they discovered several hundred unfinished Zhuge Divine Crossbows.
These semi-finished weapons looked different from the one Yan had retrieved from a disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan they seemed to have been modified.
If that was really the case, their destructive power would be even greater.
Fortunately, they were discovered in time.
Yue Guan ordered all the semi-finished weapons destroyed and then set the entire residence ablaze.
Although the residence was in Heaven Dou City, it wasn't in the city center, but rather closer to the outskirts.
The blazing flames quickly drew the attention of nearby residents.
By the time the city guards arrived, Yue Guan, Yan, and the Spirit Hall members had already left.
The operation went smoothly. Over two hundred soul masters of the Strength Clan not one survived.
Just the number of soul masters who died by Yan's hand alone numbered in the dozens.
Yue Guan and Yan quietly led Spirit Hall's elite away from Heaven Dou City, preparing to return to Spirit City and report.
"This mission went pretty smoothly. I wonder how Old Ghost is doing."
"I heard Lou Gao's strength doesn't even compare to Tai tan's. Elder Ghost may already have completed the mission."
"Hmm, very likely. Let's return to Spirit City then."
Yan suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"Teacher, we might need to delay our return a bit."
"What is it?"
"In that battle just now, dozens of soul masters died under my black flames, and as a result, my soul power has broken through the bottleneck of the seventieth Level."
"Really?"
Yue Guan looked overjoyed.
"That's excellent! Your Soul-Devouring Black Flame truly is extraordinary. We can stop by the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for a spirit beast and help you obtain your seventh spirit ring."
"Yes, that's what I was thinking as well."
"Then tomorrow, we'll go to the Star Dou Great Forest to look for a suitable soul beast."
"Alright. After I obtain my seventh soul ring, we'll make a stop at the Sunset Forest."
Yue Guan's eyes lit up, gleaming with anticipation.
"To go to Dugu Bo's old lair?"
"Mm, to avoid complications from delay, let's pick the remaining immortal herbs as soon as possible."
"Alright. Hahaha~"
Thinking that he'd soon be able to go to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to harvest the herbs he long desired, Yue Guan felt incredibly excited.
Early the next morning.
Yue Guan sent someone to deliver the message back to Spirit Hall, and then he and Yan set off together for the Star Dou Great Forest.
On the other side.
Early in the morning, the royal guards rushed to Shrek Academy.
They were under the orders of Emperor Xue Ye to summon Yu Xiaogang to the palace.
Although Shrek Academy's team didn't win the final championship in the Soul Master Tournament, due to their outstanding performance, they still earned the favor of Emperor Xue Ye.
As a theoretical master, Yu Xiaogang was highly regarded by Emperor Xue Ye thanks to Ning Fengzhi's recommendation.
Furthermore, Tang San was Tang Hao's son. If, in the future, the support of Tang Hao and the Clear Sky Clan could be secured, the overall strength of the Heaven Dou Empire would reach a new level.
When Yu Xiaogang arrived at the palace, he saw that Ning Fengzhi was already present.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
"No need for formalities, Master."
After rising, Yu Xiaogang nodded at Ning Fengzhi.
Ning Fengzhi also nodded back, his expression extremely grim, as if something serious had happened.
Yu Xiaogang felt uneasy inside, unsure of the reason for Emperor Xue Ye's summons.
Emperor Xue Ye spoke.
"Master, has there still been no news from your disciple Tang San?"
Yu Xiaogang shook his head.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, ever since Tang San was taken away by the Clear Sky Douluo, he has been completely out of contact. We've sent people to search far and wide, but to this day, there's still no news."
Emperor Xue Ye glanced at Ning Fengzhi beside him, his expression heavy.
Ning Fengzhi looked at Yu Xiaogang and sighed:
"Master, something has happened."
"Sect Master Ning, what's wrong? Don't tell me something happened to San…"
Yu Xiaogang's heart skipped a beat, a sense of foreboding rising within him.
"No, it's not Tang San."
"Then who?"
"Last night, something major happened in Heaven Dou City. In one night, the entire Strength Clan was exterminated. Even the clan leader Tai Tan was not spared."
"What?!!"
Hearing this, Yu Xiaogang was struck like thunder from a clear sky, stunned on the spot.
He knew that the Strength Clan had once served under Tang Hao, and now followed Tang San as their young master, forging powerful hidden weapons for him.
Tai Long had once been a member of Shrek Academy, serving as a reserve team member during the Soul Master Tournament and playing an important role.
"Sect Master Ning, the entire clan was wiped out?"
"Yes. All two hundred plus Soul Masters of the clan were slaughtered. Aside from the bodies of Tai Nuo, Tai Long, and a few others not being found, everyone else has been accounted for."
"Then perhaps those few are still alive."
Ning Fengzhi shook his head.
"That possibility is very slim. There's still no news of them to this day. Let's just hope they're alive."
Yu Xiaogang's face turned pale, unable to believe it.
Ning Fengzhi was filled with sorrow and continued:
"Those criminals didn't just kill and burn, they also destroyed the Strength Clan's forging base. Clan leader Tai Tan had crafted a batch of newly improved Zhuge Divine Crossbows for our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, with even greater power. Originally, they were to be delivered next month. Who could have foreseen such a tragedy?"
Emperor Xue Ye asked:
"Master, who do you think could be behind this?"
Yu Xiaogang's face darkened, a trace of fury flashing in his eyes.
"The Strength Clan had over two hundred Soul Masters, and clan leader Tai Tan's soul power was as high as level eighty-six. Such a powerful clan was wiped out overnight who else but Spirit Hall has the strength to do that?!"
