Chapter 59: Brother Tao Decides to Boldly Report
Inside the livestream.
When Tang Hao saw the message about him flash briefly on the virtual screen—only to be instantly buried beneath countless identical messages—he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Then, with a mocking grin, he wrote:
[Tang Hao (mocking): Come on then, Spirit Hall! Come find me! If you do, you'll eliminate your biggest threat. But it seems like you just aren't capable.]
Seeing this message, Bibi Dong's elegant and noble expression darkened.
She hadn't expected that there would be so many father-son pairs named Tang Hao and Tang San across the Douluo Continent.
It irritated her immensely.
Tang Hao, of all people—not a commoner—and he gave his child a name as plain as "Tang San"? Absolutely ridiculous!
The virtual screen was now flooded with reports claiming to know a "Tang Hao and Tang San" pair.
Spirit Hall's members were only able to jot down a few, and unfortunately, none of those included the real location: Holy Soul Village.
Meanwhile, at the Spirit Hall sub-branch in Nuoding City, the infamous "toolman," single dog, and blind Douluo Su Yuntao was watching the stream.
When he heard that the Clear Sky Douluo's son was named Tang San,
he immediately thought of the boy he'd met back in Holy Soul Village—also named Tang San.
Innate full soul power with a Blue Silver Grass martial soul?
Su Yuntao began to ponder.
He remembered from the third livestream that Tang San's mother, Ah Yin , was a 100,000-year Blue Silver Grass soul beast in human form.
A Blue Silver Grass with innate full soul power was nearly impossible.
Unless it had mutated.
But if this child was born from a 100,000-year Blue Silver Grass beast—
then of course his martial soul would be something extraordinary!
Only that could explain his full soul power.
So this boy from the village… could very well be the Tang San from the livestream…
Su Yuntao felt more and more certain.
And that village boy was strikingly mature, aligning perfectly with Lin Yu's mysterious description of Tang Hao's son.
Although he hadn't confirmed whether the boy's father was actually Tang Hao,
Su Yuntao had already made up his mind: he would write a letter to Spirit Hall's main headquarters.
Names can be changed—but characteristics can't be faked!
In Su Yuntao's mind,
if he were Tang Hao and had made enemies of Spirit Hall, he'd definitely use a fake name.
Even if he found out who the father was, the name might be false, which could tip off Tang Hao and put Su Yuntao in danger.
Rather than risk that, he would pretend ignorance on the surface and quietly write the report in secret.
Originally, Su Yuntao had planned to go to Spirit City himself.
But then he considered: if Tang San's father was truly the Clear Sky Douluo, he would certainly investigate anyone who might expose them.
As a Spirit Hall member, Su Yuntao would be a prime target.
If he set out for Spirit City now, Tang Hao—with his Title Douluo strength—could easily catch and kill him.
So he had only one choice: write secretly, act normal outwardly, and say nothing.
That way, Tang Hao might not take immediate action, hoping to avoid exposure.
This was the only way Su Yuntao could hope to survive.
Though he didn't have a bad impression of Tang San personally,
as a Spirit Hall officer—and someone pursuing his goddess, Sisi—Su Yuntao had no other option.
Besides, considering what Lin Yu had said earlier:
If this Tang San really was the son of the Clear Sky Douluo, he would one day bring calamity to the continent.
That livestream had clearly shown Tang San destroying Spirit Hall.
Su Yuntao now believed Lin Yu's warning.
As a Spirit Hall official, Su Yuntao understood how much Spirit Hall had contributed to the continent.
First, Spirit Hall offered free annual martial soul awakenings for all commoners.
Even though not everyone could become a soul master, it gave hope.
Second, Spirit Hall gave monthly subsidies to soul masters, helping low-level ones attend school and live decently.
Otherwise, due to their lack of strength, no one would recruit them.
If those people had no way to live, who knew what chaos might ensue?
So Su Yuntao now firmly opposed Tang Hao and his son.
…
[Ding! The current livestream Q&A has ended. The livestream will temporarily shut down in three minutes. You may now freely exit.]
[The next livestream Q&A will take place one month later!]
After Lin Yu correctly answered the last question, and the argument between Tang Hao and Spirit Hall faded,
a line of blood-red text appeared across the screen as the cold mechanical voice made its announcement.
One month again, huh?
Learning the next Q&A would be in another month,
many users, lost in thought, chose to exit the livestream.
Lin Yu was among them.
In Spirit City,
Lin Yu sat on his bed after leaving the livestream, staring out the window, deep in thought.
Though the reward this time was generous,
the consequences might soon spiral beyond his control.
But then again, this was his doing.
He could've simply answered "Tang San" as the name—
and avoided revealing Tang Hao's identity, which might have avoided the current uproar.
But Lin Yu chose to include that Tang San was the son of the Clear Sky Douluo.
Why?
Because he had suddenly thought of something else:
Now that Tang Hao's identity was exposed—
would Tang San still attend Nuoding Academy?
Highly unlikely!
Once Tang Hao realized he'd been exposed, he would probably take Tang San and flee Holy Soul Village soon.
If that happened, this was Lin Yu's only chance to strike at the father and son.
Once Tang Hao vanished again, finding them would be like finding a needle in a haystack.
But now that both names—Tang Hao and Tang San—were known,
tracking them down would be much easier.
Still, Lin Yu hadn't expected that there would be so many father-son pairs named Tang Hao and Tang San across the continent.
Then again, perhaps that was a blessing.
It might lull Tang Hao into staying put, thinking they were still safe.
Especially since, due to Lin Yu's earlier manipulation, Ah Yin had left Tang Hao.
Tang Hao might cling to the village, hoping Ah Yin would return.
That might buy Spirit Hall the perfect opportunity.
The problem now was—
how to make sure Spirit Hall discovered that Tang Hao and Tang San were really in Holy Soul Village.
