Seeing Liu Erlong's despondent expression, Tang Yuehua, who had now fully become Xiao Yu's woman, also felt a deep sense of guilt.
However, with her weak strength, she had no ability to change the current situation.
"Teacher Erlong..."
Just as Liu Erlong was about to leave with a gloomy expression, she heard a familiar voice calling her.
Turning around, she saw a figure that was both familiar and unfamiliar.
"Kid, who are you? Not just anyone can call me teacher!"
Liu Erlong said coldly.
"Teacher Erlong, I'm Tang San, Grandmaster's disciple, Tang San!"
Hearing this, Liu Erlong remembered that Tang San was the disciple of her useless, brain-dead ex-lover, Grandmaster.
"Oh, it's you. What are you doing here? Oh, right, you have twin martial souls, and Tang Yuehua is your father's sister. It makes sense that you're here... Do you need something?"
Looking at Tang San, Liu Erlong quickly understood his identity and why he was here.
In response to Liu Erlong's question, Tang San spoke solemnly.
"Teacher Erlong, Xiao Wu and I have been separated for several years. She is my sister, after all, so I want to take her back to live with me. Given Xiao Wu's strength, she should have graduated by now! Please allow Xiao Wu to graduate and come home with me!"
"..."
Hearing this, Liu Erlong, who was already frowning and visibly upset, became even more furious.
"Tang San, Xiao Wu is Xiao Yu's woman. I cannot let you take her away. Give up on this idea!"
Hearing Liu Erlong's rebuttal, Tang San was not surprised. His expression remained confident and cold.
"Teacher Erlong, do you think Xiao Wu became Xiao Yu's woman willingly?! Xiao Wu and I grew up together, childhood sweethearts. If Xiao Yu hadn't forced himself into our lives, I would have been the one to become Xiao Wu's man!
Teacher Erlong, in the past, I didn't have the strength to take Xiao Wu back from Xiao Yu. But now, as a disciple of the Clear Sky Sect, with my ancestor Tang Chen, the strongest on the continent, having returned, I have the power to reclaim Xiao Wu!
Teacher Erlong, for your own sake, I'll give you three days to say goodbye to Xiao Wu. If Xiao Wu hasn't come to the Moon Pavilion to find me within three days, I will bring my father and uncle to the Blue Tyrant Academy to take her by force. At that point, who knows what will happen..."
"Tang San, are you threatening me?"
Hearing Tang San's words, Liu Erlong's expression turned furious, her eyebrows twitching.
Tang San, however, shook his head indifferently.
"No, I'm simply stating a fact. Teacher Erlong, I know you are strong, but my father is stronger than you. My great-grandfather is stronger than your father and your uncle."
Hearing Tang San's confident words, Liu Erlong's expression darkened. Although she had many things she wanted to say, in the end, she condensed her thoughts into a single sentence.
"If you want Xiao Wu, come to the Blue Tyrant Academy yourself. If Xiao Wu is willing to go with you, I won't stop her. But if she isn't, I will fight to the death to protect Xiao Yu's woman. The Moon Pavilion's profits are just material possessions—I don't care about them. Money can be earned again. But Xiao Wu is Xiao Yu's woman. I can't just stand by and watch her be taken away by force."
With that, Liu Erlong left the Moon Pavilion.
Tang Yuehua watched this scene with deep concern. She looked at Tang San, who was now serious, and spoke helplessly.
"Little San, since Xiao Wu is already Xiao Yu's woman, why must you force this? Even if you take her back, she won't be the same Xiao Wu from before.
So much time has passed. She could have even had children by now..."
Hearing Tang Yuehua's words, Tang San's expression, which had been calm, suddenly twisted into one of rage and ferocity.
The thought of Xiao Wu moaning under Xiao Yu filled him with such hatred that he wished he could send Xiao Yu to hell for eternity!
"Auntie, you don't understand. Xiao Wu is my first love, one of the most important people in my life. Even if she is no longer pure, even if her heart belongs to someone else, even if she has children, I will still bring her back to my side. This is my promise to her.
In the past, I was too weak to take her back. But now that I have the strength, I will never let her go again. No one will take her from me!
If Xiao Yu dares to stand in my way, I won't hesitate to kill him. With Ancestor Tang Chen's return, the Clear Sky Sect fears no retaliation from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family!"
Hearing Tang San's stubborn and slightly deranged words, Tang Yuehua knew that her nephew had gone mad.
He had become utterly ruthless.
This was his inner demon. If he couldn't reclaim Xiao Wu, his inner demon might never be appeased.
In the end, Tang Yuehua could only sigh helplessly.
With her measly level 9 soul power, she could do nothing to change the situation.
All she could do was pray that this matter wouldn't end in tragedy.
"..."
Dragon Valley, within the Silent Thunder Gorge.
Two years. After two full years of relentless effort, Xiao Yu had finally buried all the dragon bones that had once littered the valley.
At the peak of the highest mountain in the Dragon Valley, a figure sat cross-legged, dwarfed by the massive landscape.
Around this figure, terrifying soul power fluctuations erupted, surpassing those of most 90th-ranked Title Douluo.
The soul power surged like tidal waves, cracking the ground wherever it passed.
Around the figure, nine blood-red soul rings hovered, with the outermost two rings adorned with intricate patterns of dragon heads, as if roaring in defiance.
Behind the figure, a massive, ethereal creature slowly merged into his body.
This figure was Xiao Yu, who had spent two years burying bones and absorbing dragon energy in the Dragon Valley.
After two years, Xiao Yu's soul power had broken through to the 90th rank, reaching the Title Douluo level.
Upon his breakthrough, the Dragon Valley seemed to sense his achievement, and the remaining dragon souls used their last traces of soul power to create the two 100,000-year soul rings he needed.
