Chapter 184: Tang San Rescue Yu Xiaogang.
Actually, another incident occurred during these 20 days, but its scale and impact were less significant, so it went undetected.
Tang San returned to the ocean and quickly healed his injuries using the power of the vast sea.
However, he did not return directly to Xingluo City. Instead, as before, he concealed his divine power and lurked within Spirit City. As a Tang Sect disciple, Tang San's stealth skills were exceptional; otherwise, he wouldn't have lurked and attacked the Spirit Empire during two Soul Hunting operations in the original novel. The second instance was a classic, leaving even Bibi Dong helpless.
After dressing himself up, Tang San infiltrated Spirit City alone. As a god, concealing himself was virtually undetectable.
After several rounds of searching within Spirit City, he finally located the place where his teacher, Yu Xiaogang, was being held. However, security was strict, and even Spirit Hall elders were forbidden entry.
Forcing their way in would easily alert the enemy, and being surrounded by two gods would be a real problem, especially Qian Renxue. The Angel God's flight speed was incredibly fast. Furthermore, her teacher, Yu Xiaogang, was only a Great Spirit Master and couldn't withstand the enemy's attacks.
Ultimately, Tang San's sneak attacks and the use of hidden weapons finally rescued Yu Xiaogang. Afterward, the two of them quickly fled, not towards Xingluo City, but deep into the sea. Tracking Tang San at sea was extremely difficult.
Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong both sensed Tang San's escape and pursued him. But once they reached the sea, they were helpless in the face of the vast ocean. Tang San, a Sea God, had become one with the ocean's aura, making it impossible to find him.
They couldn't help but grumble, "How could this bastard, Tang San, be so cowardly? Where's the dignity and aura of a god?"
Bibi Dong, in particular, was furious. Yu Xiaogang, whom they had finally captured, had been taken away like this. Her earlier boasting was a joke.
Qian Renxue, on the other hand, wore a calm expression. Seeing Bibi Dong like this, she felt a certain relief. Bibi Dong, her own mother, had actually been thinking about running away with that wicked man, Yu Xiaogang. Where would her deceased father be? Where would the Spirit Empire's reputation be? Now that she'd been kidnapped, it was even better.
Thus, the two, each with their own agenda, searched the sea for a long time, ultimately returning empty-handed and forced to return to Spirit City.
Sensing the two had left, Tang San also emerged from the seabed with Yu Xiaogang, taking a detour back to Xingluo City. Of course, to prevent Yu Xiaogang from being discovered, he was completely stunned by his divine power.
Thus, Yu Xiaogang was rescued by Tang San. As for the others, there was no time or opportunity to intervene, especially now that the enemy had been alerted.
Poison Douluo Dugu Bo, in particular, was under strict guard, and any sign of trouble would result in immediate execution. And judging by the opinions of the Spirit Empire's elders, it seemed they wanted Dugu Bo executed immediately.
Finally, after much discussion, Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong unanimously decided to sacrifice Dugu Bo's head during the attack on Xingluo City of the Xingluo Empire, thus deterring the opposing spirit masters.
I wonder what Dugu Bo himself would think?
In Silla City, at Tang San's Sea God Residence, Yu Xiaogang gradually regained consciousness as Tang San's divine power infused him.
Upon seeing Tang San and the Shrek group, Yu Xiaogang burst into tears: "Xiaosan, you're finally back. The Heaven Dou Empire has been defeated, defeated."
Tang San quickly bowed: "Teacher, I'm truly sorry. I came back so late. I've wronged you."
"I'm not wronged, not wronged. How is the situation here now?"
"Teacher, the situation is very grim now. The Heaven Dou Empire has been completely destroyed. The Spirit Empire is gathering all its forces and may be preparing to besiege Xingluo City."
"By the way, teacher, this is my great-grandfather."
Yu Xiaogang saluted quickly: "Old Sect Master Tang, I have heard of your name for a long time. Old Sect Master Tang is known as the two mountains of the spirit master world. Now that the Xingluo Empire has Old Sect Master Tang in charge, the chances of victory will be much greater."
Tang Chen just nodded slightly and said nothing.
Yu Xiaogang looked around at everyone: "Xiaotian Douluo, Haotian Douluo, I didn't expect that we would meet in Xingluo City. By the way, where are the two seniors, Sect Master Ning and Sword Douluo Gu Douluo? Why don't I see them? I remember they should have run away at that time."
After hearing this, everyone fell silent. Finally, it was Tang Xiao who spoke. "The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect suffered heavy losses this time. We went to the Elemental Academy for help, but Sect Master Ning ultimately decided to disband the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, both severely injured and poisoned, eventually joined the Elemental Academy."
Yu Xiaogang was stunned. "The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect disbanded? Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo joined the Elemental Academy? How could this happen? Have they forgotten their great vengeance against the Spirit Empire?"
Tang Xiao shook his head. "It's not that they've forgotten, but Sect Master Ning and the others are disheartened. The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect suffered heavy losses in this war, and only a dozen direct disciples remain."
Tang Xiao hadn't spoken yet. The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was, after all, a supporting sect. If they didn't retreat now, they would likely be wiped out. The Haotian Sect and the Spirit Empire had deep grievances, and this return would be a breach of promise. The Spirit Empire would not tolerate the Haotian Sect retreating again.
Yu Xiaogang's face was heavy: "If that's the case, without the assistance of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, and without the two peak Titled Douluo, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, our chances of winning would be much lower."
"By the way, Xiaosan, how's the improvement for you and your group after returning from Seagod Island this time?"
Tang San said: "Teacher, our improvement on this trip to Seagod Island is huge. In addition to me inheriting the Seagod throne, Mu Bai and Xiao Wu have both become Titled Douluo, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Zhu Zhuqing are all Soul Douluo, and Rongrong has reached level 79."
Yu Xiaogang nodded with some relief: "Not bad, you are all very good, and the improvement this time is very huge. You are all only about 25 years old, and you have already reached such a high level of strength. This should be the biggest miracle in the history of the Soul Master world."
Tang San quickly said: "This is all thanks to your teachings, teacher, and your guidance in letting us go to Seagod Island for training."
The other six Shrek people also expressed their gratitude to Yu Xiaogang.
Although Yu Xiaogang was pleased with the gratitude, a look of worry remained on his face. "Xiao San, our current strength is still far behind that of the Spirit Empire. If we were to go to war with the Spirit Empire with only our current strength, our chances of winning would be very low. Do you have any other ideas for increasing our strength?"
