That inexplicable feeling of being targeted surged into Tang San's heart once again, causing him to frown. He had felt this way before in the Star Dou Great Forest and Spirit City, and it was undeniably unpleasant. He just wanted to mind his own business, so why did malice always seem to strike unexpectedly?
"Princess Xue Ke, Tang San doesn't know where you got this information, but I have never been to the Star Luo Empire. If you suspect that I have ulterior motives for approaching you, we can simply treat each other as strangers and stay out of each other's way."
"Hmph, you wish! Quickly tell me what you're planning to do infiltrating the Heaven Dou Empire, or I'll report you to my imperial brother and have him arrest you."
So stubborn and unreasonable! This woman has a death wish!
Tang San thought to himself, his hand slowly reaching for his Soul Tool. However, his remaining rationality made him hesitate. After all, she had a special status, and killing her wouldn't be as easy to get away with as it was with those thugs before.
Fortunately, Tang Yuehua noticed the situation and stepped in to resolve her nephew's predicament.
"Princess Xue Ke, has my nephew offended you in some way?"
"Hmph, Moon Pavilion Master, are you sure he's your nephew? This is the notorious Evil King Tang San from the Star Luo territory. Are you aware of how many innocent lives have been lost at his hands?"
Tang Yuehua was slightly stunned. She had heard of the name Evil King Tang San before, but she had always assumed it was just someone with the same name as her nephew. She didn't expect Xue Ke to be so certain.
"Princess Xue Ke, I think you're mistaken. My nephew has been in the Sect since birth. This is his first time out. Isn't he here to seek refuge with his Aunt? I can guarantee that he has never been to the Star Luo Empire."
Although she didn't know if her nephew was responsible for that incident, Tang Yuehua just wanted to help Tang San escape the situation, so she subconsciously covered for him.
Sure enough, after hearing Tang Yuehua's explanation, a hint of hesitation flashed in Xue Ke's eyes.
"Could it really just be a case of the same name?"
"Princess Xue Ke, there's no need to doubt. There must be thousands if not eight thousand people named Tang San in the world. It's impossible to blame all their misdeeds on my nephew, is it?"
"Alright, then I suppose I've wronged you. I apologize."
Xue Ke stuck out her tongue. Although she wasn't entirely convinced, the noble etiquette she had learned told her that her current actions were somewhat impolite, so she turned to Tang San and expressed her apology.
Seeing the matter resolved, Tang San secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Assassinating a princess was always a last resort, and this was the best possible outcome.
"Princess Xue Ke, there's no need to worry. I didn't take it to heart."
The aunt and nephew watched Xue Ke leave, and then Tang Yuehua turned to her nephew with a serious expression.
"Xiao San, tell Aunt the truth. Were you involved in the Star Luo incident?"
"Aunt, why do you suspect me too? How could I do something so pointless for a woman? My father and I already have enough enemies."
Tang Yuehua secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't relax completely.
"Then someone must be framing you. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to describe your Spirit and appearance so clearly, matching them to you perfectly."
It was no longer a secret that Evil King Tang San possessed the Blue Silver Grass Spirit. Tang Yuehua guessed that someone was deliberately framing her nephew. Tang San nodded in agreement with his aunt's view, and after a moment of hesitation, he released his Blue Silver Grass Spirit.
Four yellow Spirit Rings rose in succession, displayed before Tang Yuehua, causing her to be stunned.
"Xiao San, you"
"Aunt, this is what happened when I was Soul Hunting in the Star Dou Great Forest and was framed by someone."
Then Tang San showed his Clear Sky Hammer Spirit and told his aunt what had happened at that time.
After listening, Tang Yuehua fell into deep thought, and after a long while, she began to analyze:
"This enemy must know you very well, and they must have been watching you for quite some time. Otherwise, they wouldn't know that you have Twin Spirits and use that to frame you."
"That's right, Aunt. At first, I thought it was Spirit Hall who did it, but then I ruled out that idea. If they had discovered our father and son a long time ago, they should have made a move already, just like the ambush outside Spirit City after the Soul Master Competition."
Tang San voiced his opinion, which prompted Tang Yuehua to nod in agreement. However, she couldn't think of any other forces that would frame her nephew in such a way.
"Forget it, Xiao San, let's not think about this for now. You should go back and say hello to your Teacher. After all, there is a Spirit Hall Branch in Heaven Dou City. I'm afraid your whereabouts will be exposed. It's best if we hurry to the Clear Sky Sect . Aunt can teach you about music theory in the Sect as well."
"Yes, Aunt."
Tang San shared the same thought. Now that Princess Xue Ke knew his true identity, it wouldn't be long before the news spread. For him, the Heaven Dou Empire was no longer safe.
Returning to Shrek Academy, Tang San went directly to Grandmaster.
"Teacher, Aunt wants to take me back to the Clear Sky Sect to receive the inheritance. I'm here to say goodbye."
Yu Xiaogang was taken aback. After pondering for a moment, he did not object.
"That's good too. The Clear Sky Sect 's inheritance is powerful. If you can master it, it will be a great opportunity. Just don't forget to cultivate your emotional control during this time."
"I understand, Teacher. Aunt will continue to teach me music theory at the Clear Sky Sect ."
"Well, the continent is turbulent now. Following the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the Strength Clan has also been destroyed. After you return to the Clear Sky Sect , you must remind them to be careful of Spirit Hall's actions, otherwise..."
Yu Xiaogang didn't say the rest. If the Clear Sky Sect was also destroyed by Spirit Hall, he couldn't imagine who else could stop that woman's ambition.
"Teacher, we will. Aunt is returning to the Sect with this purpose in mind."
"That's good. Be careful in everything. If you need to stay for a long time, remember to write and let me know your cultivation progress. I have been considering your Fifth Spirit Ring for a long time. You can have the elders of the Clear Sky Sect help you hunt it. It should still be in the direction of enhancing toughness and toxicity. As for which Soul Beast to choose, it depends on your opportunity during the Soul Hunting. You should be clear about which Soul Beasts have these characteristics."
Tang San nodded in agreement with Grandmaster's suggestion. Originally, Liu Erlong and Flander would have taken him to hunt for a Spirit Ring in the next few days, but now that the situation has changed, it is a bit of a pity.
After saying goodbye to Flander and Liu Erlong, they saw that Yu Xiaogang did not object, so they did not raise any objections, but gave some care that elders should give.
Three days later, Tang San and Tang Yuehua, who had handed over the affairs of the Moon Pavilion, set off towards the Clear Sky Sect in the north of the Heaven Dou Empire. The sentries arranged by the Little Angel quickly sent back the news, and she quickly sent someone to summon Ning Bei to the Imperial Palace.
"Tang Yuehua took Tang San to the Clear Sky Sect ."
Ning Bei frowned slightly. This was somewhat beyond his expectations. Originally, Tang San should have stayed in the Moon Pavilion for a long time to study music theory. He didn't expect that because of their actions, the other party would go to the Clear Sky Sect ahead of schedule.
After thinking for a moment, Ning Bei quickly made a decision.
"Send someone to monitor the periphery of the Clear Sky Sect and confirm that they are always in the Clear Sky Sect . There is no need for other actions. Anyway, the Clear Sky Sect will not exist for long."
