However, the pursuit by Heavenly Emperor Lu was far from over.
What he wanted was to completely shatter the towering statue in their hearts known as the "Clear Sky Douluo."
[Heavenly Emperor Lu (Group Owner): When Ah Yin sacrificed herself, her spirit power was exactly level sixty-nine.]
[Heavenly Emperor Lu (Group Owner): Think carefully for yourselves, whether there is something fishy about this.]
Heavenly Emperor Lu's words were like a heavy hammer, smashing fiercely into everyone's hearts.
Level sixty-nine.
This number now seemed so glaring, so shocking.
[I Have No Mother: If that's really the case, then Tang Hao might have truly had a premeditated plan for Ah Yin.]
[I Have No Mother: He didn't just plan for a few years; he might have even started earlier, designing everything right after meeting Ah Yin!]
When Qian Renxue typed these words, her fingers were trembling slightly.
She thought of her own plan, to go undercover in the Heaven Dou Empire.
She had considered her own plan grand and secretive enough.
But compared to Tang Hao's ten-year-long scheme, it was simply dwarfed in comparison!
[Little Demoness: Just under level seventy, then Qian Xunji came to hunt her down, leaving her with no way out, leading to Ah Yin's sacrifice, and Tang Hao's counter-kill...]
[Little Demoness: This... this coincidence is just too terrifying!]
Ning Rongrong only felt a chill run up her spine, and her scalp went numb.
She had grown up in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and had seen countless conspiracies and schemes, but none were as horrifying as this story before her.
The atmosphere in the Chat Group was stifling to the extreme.
It seemed that Tang Hao's hypocritical and vicious image had been completely nailed down.
But just then, a different voice sounded.
[My Cat is White and Big: What if... it really was just a coincidence?]
Zhuqing's statement allowed the frozen air to loosen a little.
That's right, although there were many doubts, there was ultimately no direct evidence.
What if all of this was truly just a malicious joke by fate?
Inside the cave, Ah Yin, who was on the verge of collapse, also seemed to have grabbed onto the last straw.
Her consciousness forcibly coalesced from the chaos.
There was one more piece of evidence!
The most powerful evidence, enough to overturn all conspiracy theories!
[My Son Is Not a Bastard: But... but Tang Hao and Ah Yin also had a child!]
[My Son Is Not a Bastard: If they weren't truly in love, how could they have given birth to a child!]
These words were like a beam of light, piercing through the darkness of the conspiracy theories in the group.
That's right!
The child!
The child is the crystallization of love, the proof of two people's bloodlines merging!
A man, no matter how calculating, no matter how cold-blooded and ruthless, wouldn't go so far as to treat his own flesh and blood as just a pawn in his plan, would he?
This was already beyond the scope of a normal person's understanding.
[Gentle Fire Dragon: That's right! If they weren't in love, how could they have had a child!]
Liu Erlong slapped her thigh suddenly; she felt that what Ah Yin said was absolutely right!
Feelings can be faked, but a child cannot be faked!
[The Fox Is the Most Innocent: They even have a child; it's impossible that Tang Hao calculated even the child, right? I don't believe it!]
Spirit City, Holy Maiden Hall.
Hu Liena let out a long sigh of relief, feeling that the heavy stone in her heart had finally fallen.
She was still willing to believe that sincere love existed in this World.
Even if the ending of this love was not perfect.
Even Bibi Dong, who had been silent, slowly typed a line of text at this moment.
[Supreme Pontiff: I don't believe it either.]
She could accept a man deceiving a woman's feelings for power.
But she could not accept a man treating his own biological son as part of a plan.
That is something only a beast would do.
Tang Hao would not go that far.
...
With the Supreme Pontiff's stance, the direction of the group seemed to shift once again.
Tang Hao's image seemed to change back from a complete schemer to a man who, though flawed, was at least sincere to his wife and child.
However, Lu Ming at the Blue Tyrant Academy, watching everyone's reactions on the screen, saw the smile on his face grow instead of diminish.
A child?
Do you think a child is a get-out-of-jail-free card?
Quite the contrary.
The existence of this child is the most vicious and ruthless part of Tang Hao's entire plan!
Blue Tyrant Academy, in the cultivation room.
Lu Ming's gaze slowly swept across the Chat Group screen.
[Gentle Fire Dragon: That's right! If they weren't in love, how could they have had a child!]
[The Fox Is the Most Innocent: They even have a child; it's impossible that Tang Hao calculated even the child, right? I don't believe it!]
[Supreme Pontiff: I don't believe it either.]
Watching the group gradually warm up and the direction about to be reversed, a smile slowly spread across Lu Ming's face.
Very good.
Very good.
The activity level of the Chat Group was soaring at an unprecedented speed.
This meant that when this great drama came to an end, the rewards he would receive would be unimaginably generous.
A child, is that right?
The last straw, the final psychological defense line.
His slender fingers tapped lightly on the screen, without a trace of worldly emotion, yet he dropped a real bombshell.
[Heavenly Emperor Lu (Group Owner): Tang Hao and Ah Yin's child?]
[Heavenly Emperor Lu (Group Owner): You mean Tang San, right.]
Two simple sentences.
No extra embellishments, no emotional rendering, just stating a fact.
However, when the name "Tang San" appeared, the entire Chat Group fell into a deathly silence.
Immediately after, it was a volcanic eruption.
...
Heaven Dou City, a certain hotel.
In room 501.
On a soft, large bed, a graceful figure lay on her side, her curves exquisite.
Zhuqing was wearing only a thin silk nightgown, clinging tightly to her amazingly developed body.
One strap of the nightgown had slipped down, revealing a round, fair, and fragrant shoulder.
And the breathtaking fullness on her chest stretched the thin fabric into an exaggerated arc.
She was lazily browsing the stories in the Chat Group, her long, well-proportioned legs crossed.
Under the black hem of the dress were two dazzlingly white calves, with slender ankles and toes as round and cute as pearls.
Her whole person exuded a maturity and charm that belied her age, like a black cat resting in the moonlight, elegant and dangerous.
When the two words "Tang San" came into view, her whole body trembled violently.
Those purple eyes, which were usually always tinged with a hint of coldness, were now wide open.
"What?"
A low exclamation escaped from her rosy lips.
She subconsciously turned over and sat up, an action that caused the "two white cats" on her chest, already threatening to burst out, to completely break free from their restraints.
As the silk nightgown slipped, most of the snow-white skin was exposed to the air.
The dazzling white and the black of the nightgown formed a strong visual impact, enough to make any man's blood boil.
