In just a few days, two pieces of news spread throughout the Heaven Dou Empire: the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had suffered heavy losses, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had been annihilated.
Overnight, both sects were attacked simultaneously, making the connection clear.
Only the Spirit Hall could handle two of the three upper sects at once.
For a time, the soul masters of the Heaven Dou Empire were filled with panic. Even the three upper sects couldn't withstand the Spirit Hall, let alone ordinary soul masters like themselves.
After days of spreading, the news finally reached Han Hai City.
"Bibi Dong, how dare you!"
Upon hearing this news, Yu Xiaogang's eyes instantly turned bloodshot. His breathing became labored, and his lungs felt like they were about to explode with rage.
Although he had previously considered destroying the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, it was only to prove that he, Yu Xiaogang, was not a waste. He hadn't expected Bibi Dong to be so ruthless as to wipe out the entire clan.
"From now on... the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan will no longer exist in this world,"
Yu Xiaogang muttered to himself, his expression becoming dazed.
Now that his father and the rest of his family are all dead, even if he achieves great success in the future, how can he wash away the shame of his family?
It's all Bibi Dong's fault!
What he finds most unacceptable is that many disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect survived, while the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was completely wiped out.
Although he narrowly escaped death, his physical strength was damaged, making it impossible for him to rebuild the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan unless he marries Liu Erlong to someone else.
But wouldn't that be like putting himself in a compromising position?
"Bibi Dong, you first forced me away without any regard for our past relationship, and now you've harmed my father and my clansmen."
"I will never forgive you!"
Driven by rage, Yu Xiaogang slammed his fist against the wall. Blood flowed from his fist, and the intense pain caused him to let out a sharp scream.
Hearing the screams coming from inside, Ma Hongjun rushed in, his face full of worry. "Teacher, are you alright?"
"Hongjun, from now on, you're my only family."
Yu Xiaogang looked at his disciple with deep affection and spoke earnestly, "You must cultivate diligently and strive to obtain the divine inheritance. Only then will you have the strength to deal with the Spirit Hall."
Hearing this, Ma Hongjun was dumbfounded.
What a joke!
The Spirit Hall was so powerful; how could a soul master like him possibly handle it?
As for the divine inheritance, its authenticity was still unknown, and even if it were real, he had little confidence in gaining recognition.
However, seeing the expectant look in Yu Xiaogang's eyes, Ma Hongjun couldn't bring himself to speak.
BANG!!
A loud crash echoed as the door was suddenly kicked open. Dai Mubai walked in, his gaze fixed on Ma Hongjun, a fierce glint in his heterochromatic pupils. Without a word, he took him away.
Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang shuddered in fright. Ever since Dai Mubai broke through to the Soul King realm, his tastes had changed.
Fortunately, he was extremely ugly; otherwise, he wouldn't have escaped unscathed.
At the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
"Three Educational Board Members, please tell us where Teacher Lin Mu is now."
Inside the Education Hall, Yu Tianheng, dressed in a black robe, stood beside another person in a black robe, facing the three members.
Hearing this, the three board members exchanged glances, their faces showing sympathy.
Who could have imagined that the mighty Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would be wiped out overnight? Apart from the disciples who were training outside, not a single one survived.
However, as long as Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin survived, they had the chance to preserve the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul.
After Yu Tianheng's repeated pleas, Meng Shenji sighed and truthfully said, "Teach—General Lin Mu is currently residing in the Imperial Palace. Your identities are special; if you enter the Imperial Palace, you might be discovered by the Spirit Hall."
"What should we do then?"
Yu Tianxin, standing to the side, immediately became anxious. He couldn't sleep soundly until the blood feud of his family was avenged.
"If you're not in a hurry, I can pass on your message."
"Thank you very much, Head Meng Shenji."
Seeing that Meng Shenji was willing to help, Yu Tianheng breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could contact Teacher Lin Mu, there was still a chance.
Of course, he didn't expect Teacher Lin Mu to avenge the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
After all, their blood feud had nothing to do with Teacher Lin Mu. He only hoped to have the opportunity to grow stronger and then avenge them himself.
The next day.
Led by Meng Shenji, Lin Mu met Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin.
More than two years had passed, and Yu Tianheng had broken through to the Soul King level. With his transformed Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, his strength was definitely no less than that of an ordinary Soul Emperor.
In fact, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul wasn't weak, but perhaps because there were too many Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon soul masters, the True Dragon bloodline had been diluted.
Furthermore, having absorbed numerous dragon soul rings, his true dragon bloodline was further diluted, leaving him with only a mediocre top-tier martial soul.
In Lin Mu's view, the innate strength of a martial soul was only one aspect; the most crucial element was its later development.
It's like playing a game: even with god-tier equipment in the early stages, it's useless without proper development later.
"Teacher Lin Mu, I want to continue learning from you,"
Yu Tianheng said directly, without beating around the bush.
He knew very well that to avenge his clan against the Spirit Hall, his current strength was insufficient; he needed to surpass his grandfather's power.
Lin Mu had anticipated Yu Tianheng's request, but he shook his head and said in a deep voice, "I'm no longer a teacher, and I don't have time to teach students anymore."
Upon hearing this, Meng Shenji and Yu Tianxin were stunned, not expecting Lin Mu to be so ruthless.
Only Yu Tianheng remained calm, unsurprised by the answer.
"However," Lin Mu suddenly changed the subject, saying lightly, "as long as you stay in Heaven Dou City, I can guarantee your safety."
"Thank you, Teacher Lin Mu!"
Having received this promise, Yu Tianheng was already satisfied.
He wasn't Tang San after all; Teacher Lin Mu wouldn't help him at all costs, especially since he had already received many favors from Teacher Lin Mu.
With his current talent, as long as he continued to cultivate, he would definitely reach level ninety-seven or higher one day.
At that time, he would have the strength to take revenge on the Spirit Hall.
His only worry was that by the time he had enough strength, his enemy would already be dead, and there would be no chance to take revenge on the Spirit Hall himself.
"By the way, release your lightning. Let me see how strong it is,"
Lin Mu suddenly made a request.
Hearing this, Yu Tianheng was surprised, but he still obediently released his lightning power.
Unlike before, he skillfully compressed the lightning, condensing it into a small blue lightning snake that looked almost solid, similar to his fourth spirit skill, and shot it toward Lin Mu at an extremely fast speed.
Lin Mu simply blocked it with his hand, shattering the small blue lightning snake.
"As expected, the lightning attribute hasn't reached its peak. If it were a pure-blooded Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, it would definitely possess ultimate lightning power. Right now, there are only two possibilities: either the Light Holy Dragon's origin is insufficient to revert to its ancestral state, or it is being hampered by its soul rings."
