Chapter 286: Fantasies of Revenge; Setting Out for the Far North
Master Yu flicked his sleeve and left, stumbling out of the The Pope's Palace filled with humiliation and rage.
Returning to his residence, he immediately informed Liu Erlong of the news that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had met with misfortune at the hands of Spirit Hall.
Upon hearing this news, Liu Erlong was also instantly enraged.
Although she had spent her entire life hating Yu Luomian, that irresponsible father, it was undeniable that the blood flowing within her was still that of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Now that the Sect that raised her had suffered such a catastrophic disaster, if she remained indifferent, she would simply be unworthy of being a daughter!
"Xiaogang! I told you long ago, that woman Bibi Dong is a cold-blooded, scorpion-hearted madwoman!"
With bloodshot eyes, Liu Erlong grabbed Yu Xiaogang's arm, gritting her teeth. "Come with me, we're leaving Spirit Hall right now! Once we find Boss Flender and the others, we'll reform the Golden Triangle, then unite various forces to demand payment for this blood debt from Spirit Hall!"
Facing Liu Erlong's impulsiveness, although Yu Xiaogang's face was ashen, the calculating rationality that sought benefit and avoided harm remained in his heart.
Seek revenge against Bibi Dong?
Don't be joking.
He knew very well that Bibi Dong had already gained the favor of a Divinity, and there was no telling when the progress of her God Position Legacy would be completed.
Even if they recruited more Titled Douluo, so what?
Before the power of a true Divinity, Mortals were nothing more than ants that could be crushed at will.
Running to fight Spirit Hall to the death now was just throwing one's life away!
Yu Xiaogang's true hope for revenge lay entirely with his precious Disciple, Dai Mubai, who had been sent into Slaughter City!
As long as Dai Mubai could walk out alive and obtain a God Position Legacy, Yu Xiaogang could use his Disciple's influence to rightfully step on Bibi Dong.
Even if he needed to take the long view, as long as he kept his life and eventually achieved Ascension to the God Realm, he could rely on his world-shaking wisdom to strategize within the God Realm and make Bibi Dong pay the proper price.
Until then, he must not act rashly.
Yu Xiaogang took a deep breath, quickly concealing the wisdom in his eyes.
He switched to a grief-stricken expression and gripped Liu Erlong's hands tightly in return. "Erlong, calm down! Revenge must not be reckless; that would be like striking a stone with an egg."
"Rest assured, I, Yu Xiaogang, have noted this blood debt. In the future, I will definitely make Bibi Dong pay the price she deserves!"
"It's just that the enemy is strong and we are weak now. The only one I can rely on... is you!"
Looking at this man she had waited for so many years, hearing his tone filled with reliance on her and seeing that he had finally recognized the ugly face of that woman Bibi Dong.
The defensive lines in Liu Erlong's heart instantly melted, and she was moved to tears.
She gripped Yu Xiaogang's hands back and said in a choked but incredibly firm voice, "Xiaogang, don't worry! No matter what you plan to do next, I, Liu Erlong, will always support you!"
The original plan of Master Yu was to have Liu Erlong find Flender ahead of time and discuss having him operate over in the Star Luo Empire.
After all, his time in Spirit Hall had not been without gain.
Before this business with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan happened, he had been a firm supporter of Spirit Hall.
Naturally, he knew that the former Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao and some Disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect were entrenched over in the Star Luo Empire.
Now that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had suffered a similar disaster, it was obvious that as long as Gu Rong didn't die, he would inevitably lead the survivors of the Sect to flee there.
At that time, combined with the armies of the Star Luo Empire, it would be a significant force!
And if Dai Mubai really obtained a God Position Legacy and wanted to run, he, a mere Great Soul Master, would likely be powerless to stop him.
Master Yu thus dismissed that thought.
As for Dai Mubai's position as Crown Prince and his former stance?
Master Yu believed that when faced with the successor of a Divinity, the Emperor of Star Luo would make the correct choice.
...
At the same time, Heaven Dou City.
The news that Spirit Hall had successively uprooted the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan within the borders of the Heaven Dou Empire was like a magnitude twelve earthquake, instantly sweeping across the entire Empire.
Facing the successive destruction of the Upper Three Sects, countless small and medium-sized Sects within the Heaven Dou Empire were in a state of panic.
To protect themselves in the coming storm, these fence-sitters followed the wind, choosing without hesitation to change their allegiance, joining Spirit Hall's banner either openly or secretly.
In response, Jiang Li, who was at the Tang Sect, didn't even bat an eye, showing no intention of sending people to stop them or try to keep them.
As the saying goes, loyalty that is not absolute is absolute disloyalty.
Since these opportunistic forces dared to refuse the recruitment of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family—which he secretly controlled—at this critical juncture and instead defected to Spirit Hall's camp, they were truly seeking ones own death.
He could use Spirit Hall as a blade to filter out all unstable elements within the Heaven Dou Empire and deal with them one by one.
In the future, the Sea God God Position inherited by his Son would have great requirements for faith.
Did these people who were seeking ones own death even deserve to bathe in the radiance of the Sea God?
Furthermore, even if the high-level members of the Tang Sect couldn't use the cultivation resources seized from those commoners, giving them to the middle and lower-level Tang Sect Disciples was also a good choice.
Soon, under Jiang Li's instructions, the top experts within the Tang Sect turned out in full force, acting as an invisible net as they rushed to various places in the Heaven Dou Empire where rebellions and disturbances were occurring.
These old fellows more or less had significant grudges against the Spirit Hall under Bibi Dong's rule, which meant they were exceptionally ruthless when they struck.
Quickly, under the merciless iron-blooded suppression of several Tang Sect Titled Douluo, those Sects attempting to cause trouble or defect were heartlessly wiped out before they could even cause a ripple.
The Heaven Dou Empire, which had been surging with undercurrents, was instantly calmed through an extremely efficient and bloody method, quickly returning to its former tranquility.
As for those dishonest vassal duchies, they were also directly taken over by the Imperial Legions sent out under Jiang Li's instructions.
Seeing that the turmoil in the rear had been completely stabilized, Jiang Li did not delay any longer.
He decisively left the Tang Sect base and set out on the journey to the Far North.
Regarding that secret technique for condensing a Soul Core, whether it was to break through his own strength's Bottleneck or to raise the combat power ceiling of the other Titled Douluo within the Tang Sect, it was the most urgent need at the moment.
Only by reaching the limit of the Mortal world early and beginning his own God Position Legacy could Jiang Li sit securely on the sidelines in this upcoming chaos that would sweep the world.
