There's not much else to say about the subsequent Tang Sect. Once Tang Ya, having seemingly lost her mind, invited Huo Yuhao to join the Tang Sect, the gears of fate began to turn. With the addition of Huo Yuhao, the child of destiny, even though Sect Leader Tang Ya was taken by the Evil Soul Masters and became the Holy Maiden of the Holy Spirit Cult, it didn't hinder the Tang Sect's flourishing development.
Mm, that's right. Tang Ya was purely a decorative Sect Leader.
The corner of Tang Ya's mouth twitched involuntarily.
Although she really wanted to refute it, she inexplicably felt a bit guilty inside...
According to what Ao Yao said, she had already fallen and become an Evil Soul Master by then. The Tang Sect's development really didn't seem to have much to do with her.
However... I think Tang Ya recruiting Huo Yuhao into the Tang Sect back then was definitely that guy Tang San's doing. Although the Tang Sect was completely dilapidated at the time, with only Tang Ya and Bei Bei, and was in desperate need of members, Huo Yuhao back then... anyone who saw him would have called him trash.
Nearly twelve years old, only ten levels of spirit power, and his first spirit ring was merely a 'white ten-year spirit ring'. I really can't understand why Tang Ya would invite Huo Yuhao into the Tang Sect. How could there not be Tang San's influence in this?
But this is actually normal. After all, Tang San himself still had feelings for the Tang Sect. Although he castrated the Tang Sect's Cultivation Technique, deleted the powerful Hidden Weapons the Tang Sect relied on for survival, causing the Tang Sect to gradually decline and eventually even be exterminated by the Iron Blood Sect, he still cared about the Tang Sect and didn't want it to fall into obscurity!
Seeing these words, the expressions of all the women reading the diary turned peculiar.
Although these words sounded like they were saying Tang San was still quite sentimental, at least filled with feelings for the Tang Sect, the more one looked at them, the more they seemed a bit sarcastic.
And Tang Ya felt something completely different.
The Tang Sect had already been exterminated, her parents had been killed, and the Tang Sect was reduced to an empty shell. And now you think to influence my actions, to recruit Huo Yuhao into the Tang Sect...
What were you thinking earlier?
If you cared about the Tang Sect and had lent a hand earlier, would her parents have met such a violent end?
Saying you didn't want the Tang Sect to fall into obscurity... I spit on that!
Not long after Huo Yuhao entered Shrek Academy, Tang Ya left Shrek Academy, rebuilt the Tang Sect headquarters on the outskirts of Shrek City, and recruited Wang Donger, Xiao Xiao, Xu Sanshi, and Jiang Nannan—this generation of the Shrek Seven Devils—into the Tang Sect, barely getting back on track.
Then, because of her Spirit, Tang Ya fell and became an Evil Soul Master, disappearing without a trace. The heavy burden of the Tang Sect thus fell on Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao... mainly Huo Yuhao. To recruit people into the Tang Sect, Huo Yuhao really went to great lengths.
Ji Juechen and Jing Ziyan from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, the not-so-bright Angel Spirit possessor Ye Guyi, and Nan Qiuqiu, among others, were all recruited by Huo Yuhao. Of course, the most crucial was the Eighth-Rank Soul Engineer Xuan Ziwen, whom Huo Yuhao poached from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy.
Although this guy and Fan Yu are both Eighth-Rank Soul Engineers, I have to say there's a gap even among Eighth-Rank Soul Engineers. Compared to Xuan Ziwen, Fan Yu really isn't much to look at. Although I don't really understand why Xuan Ziwen, a promising researcher from the Mingde Hall, would be willing to go to the Tang Sect for what amounts to technical aid, he still came.
Xuan Ziwen?
Meng Hongchen frowned, a look of disbelief appearing on her face.
Wasn't this a teacher from their Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, and also a member of the Mingde Hall under her grandfather?
Why would he go to the Tang Sect?
This... wasn't this traitorous behavior?
Meng Hongchen was very puzzled—in her view, the term Ao Yao used was quite apt.
The Tang Sect's spirit tool technology; Xuan Ziwen going there would indeed be no different from providing technical aid. Why would Xuan Ziwen give up the excellent treatment at the Mingde Hall, abandon the most advanced spirit tool technology of the Mingde Hall, and run off to the Tang Sect!?
Besides this, Meng Hongchen was concerned about another matter.
Did Xuan Ziwen leave alone to go to Shrek Academy, or did he take Mingde Hall resources and the students under him to the Tang Sect?
There was a big difference between the two.
Also, should she tell her grandfather about this?
Tell grandfather, have him guard against Xuan Ziwen to avoid losses for the Mingde Hall.
But if she told grandfather, how should she explain it?
She couldn't very well say she suspected Xuan Ziwen would become a traitor in the future, betraying the Mingde Hall to join the Tang Sect, could she?
Even if she said it, grandfather probably wouldn't believe her...
Meng Hongchen couldn't help but sigh, propping her chin with her hand as she fell into thought.
Xuan Ziwen was poached by Huo Yuhao to the Tang Sect. Couldn't she also poach Ao Yao back to the Sun Moon Empire, to the Mingde Hall?
Hmm?
Wait!
I was clearly thinking about Xuan Ziwen, why did my thoughts drift to Ao Yao again?
With Xuan Ziwen's addition, the Tang Sect's spirit tool Hall was smoothly established. With Xuan Ziwen's help, Huo Yuhao combined spirit tools with Hidden Weapons, developing new Hidden Weapons like the Godly Zhuge Crossbow Cannon, which completely revitalized the Tang Sect.
Of course, Xuan Ziwen's addition also successfully gave the Tang Sect its first nine-level spirit tool: the Alchemy Pill Furnace. Huo Yuhao threw over forty types of Heaven And Earth Treasure from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well into the Pill Furnace and successfully refined seven Qiankun Creation Pills.
Xuan Zi took one Qiankun Creation Pill and successfully broke through from a ninety-eighth level Super Douluo to a ninety-ninth level Limit Douluo, barely solidifying his position as the master of the Sea Gods Pavilion. Xian Liner and Yan Shaozhe also took pills and made Breakthroughs as well.
Huo Yuhao took one pill, and his spirit power surged directly, while also laying a solid Foundation for his future ascension to godhood. Tang Ya, the Sect Leader of the Tang Sect, also managed to get one, used to repair her Foundation eroded by the Holy Spirit Cult's evil poison. However... Tang Ya really should thank the Holy Spirit Cult and her Dark Blue Silver Grass. Otherwise, Tang Ya would probably have been stuck at four or five spirit rings for life.
The Blue Silver Grass Spirit is just too trashy, unless it can evolve into the Blue Silver Emperor.
As for Huo Yuhao leading the Shrek Seven Devils to represent the Tang Sect in the Spirit Master Tournament or something... there's not much to say about that either.
But now... Huo Yuhao has already been expelled from Shrek Academy, so what the future holds for the Tang Sect is truly unknown.
Seeing this, Tang Ya's eyes dimmed slightly.
Regarding Little Yu Hao being expelled from Shrek Academy... she was truly powerless.
If it were the Tang Sect of several thousand years ago, she could have definitely relied on the friendship between the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy, and the reputation of the Tang Sect, to protect Huo Yuhao. But now... she could hardly protect herself.
Although for Huo Yuhao's sake, she had also begged Bei Bei, hoping he could find his great-great-grandfather to keep Huo Yuhao.
Unfortunately... Bei Bei ultimately chose to refuse her.
After calming down, Tang Ya no longer blamed Bei Bei. She knew Bei Bei's nature; he definitely didn't want Huo Yuhao to be expelled like that either. Perhaps... he had his own difficulties.
It's just... because of this matter, she and Bei Bei could never go back to how they were.
