Martial Soul: Luo Sanpao, Starting by Conquering Liu Erlong!-Chapter 255: The Madness of the Spirit Hall
Chapter 255: Chapter 255: The Madness of the Spirit Hall
After nearly half a year of effort, Tang San could now swing his mallet over thirty times under the waterfall.
Since wooden mallets were prone to breaking, Tang San needed to control the force of each swing more precisely, which was why it took him over half a year to reach thirty swings.
In the blink of an eye, Tang San had carved another wooden mallet.
Then, with renewed enthusiasm, he stood on the smooth rock at the base of the waterfall.
Continuing to swing his mallet, he practiced the Chaotic Splitting Wind Hammer Technique.
However, before Tang San could swing the mallet too many times, it broke again, and he was swept into the lake by the waterfall.
Once more, Tang San climbed out of the lake and began carving another mallet!
Meanwhile, on the other side of the waterfall, a burly figure sat on the ground, grilling fish.
Watching his son fall into the lake again, Tang Hao’s eyes were filled with disappointment.
This burly figure was Tang Hao.
Ever since bringing his son here for training.
Tang Hao had been constantly monitoring his son’s progress.
The reason for his frown and disappointment.
Was that Tang San’s progress had completely stalled.
Two months ago, Tang San had managed to swing the mallet over thirty times under the waterfall.
But even after two months, Tang San hadn’t been able to surpass that number.
This frustrated Tang Hao greatly.
He knew that progress took time.
But Tang San’s stagnation for two months couldn’t be explained by talent alone.
It was clear that Tang San didn’t want to improve.
Even if Tang San had reached forty swings, Tang Hao could have accepted it.
But this complete lack of progress wasn’t what Tang Hao wanted to see.
"Sigh, it seems Xiao San still can’t let go of Xiao Wu."
A father knows his son best, especially when both father and son have fallen in love with spirit beasts.
Thus, Tang Hao could roughly guess what was going on in Tang San’s mind.
Although Xiao Yu had caused Tang San many hardships and difficulties, Xiao Yu would only serve as motivation for Tang San’s growth.
He wouldn’t cause Tang San to collapse.
Only Xiao Wu could become an obstacle to Tang San’s growth.
Although Tang Hao didn’t want to admit it.
Women really could affect the speed at which they swung their hammers.
"Alright, Xiao San, take a break and come eat!"
After some thought, Tang Hao decided to have a good talk with Tang San.
"Okay, Father!!"
Seeing his father calling him to eat, Tang San excitedly put down the mallet he was carving.
Then, he quickly ran to his father’s side.
After the two had a simple meal, Tang San was about to continue training when Tang Hao stopped him.
Tang San looked at his father in confusion.
"Xiao San, your mind is unsettled. Do you know that you haven’t made any progress in two months?"
Tang Hao’s slightly reproachful voice rang out.
Hearing this, Tang San’s expression changed.
Then, he lowered his head in disappointment.
"I’m sorry, Father. I’ve let you down."
Seeing his son’s dejected expression, Tang Hao wanted to say more but couldn’t bring himself to continue.
Finally, Tang Hao could only speak sternly.
"Xiao San, you’ve grown up and have your own thoughts. I won’t say much more. Just remember, if you truly love Xiao Wu, then focus on your training. Clear your mind and devote yourself entirely to cultivation! Only when your strength is sufficient can you truly be with the person you love!"
"Father, you don’t object to me being with Xiao Wu?"
Tang San asked.
This was his greatest concern.
Because Tang San had always believed that Tang Hao wanted to capture Xiao Wu to harvest her soul ring.
This was why Tang San had subconsciously slowed down his progress.
He didn’t want to see the day when Xiao Wu became his soul ring.
For Xiao Wu, he was willing to give up all his strength!
To this, Tang Hao smiled faintly.
"Since you truly love each other, why would I stop you? Whether you’re human or spirit beast, as long as you truly love each other, you’re family!!"
At this point, Tang Hao couldn’t help but recall his wife, Ah Yin.
Hearing Tang Hao’s decision, Tang San’s spirits lifted.
Since his father wasn’t after Xiao Wu’s soul ring, there was no longer any obstacle in his mind!!
Seeing Tang San regain his confidence.
Tang Hao snorted.
"Since you’ve recovered, why aren’t you hurrying back to train?"
"Yes, Father!"
"..."
Soon, as time passed, another four months went by.
During these four months, Xiao Yu continued to absorb the Nine Crowns of the True Dragon in the Nine Dragon Thunder Valley.
Under Xue Qinghe’s governance, the Heaven Dou Empire remained stable.
However, the Spirit Hall.
Continued tirelessly capturing evil soul masters.
Over the past few months, the Spirit Hall’s rampant arrests had caused growing resentment among soul masters across the continent.
Some places had even begun to erupt in conflict.
As conflicts broke out, Bibi Dong not only failed to ease the anger of the various factions.
Instead, she saw it as a challenge to the Spirit Hall’s authority and used bloody methods to suppress them.
For those families that clashed with the Spirit Hall.
They were labeled as evil soul master families, and one family of eighty-six people was entirely arrested.
The family’s strongest member, a Soul Sage, was even executed on the spot!!
From then on, the Spirit Hall’s reputation began to decline.
The branch halls and sub-halls within the two empires were now in a state of constant alert.
Although the hall masters of each branch and sub-hall repeatedly reported the severity of the situation.
Pleading with the Pope to stabilize the situation before continuing the hunt for evil soul masters.
But Pope Bibi Dong remained stubborn, ignoring the lives of others.
She was solely focused on capturing evil soul masters for Yu Xiaogang.
As for the letters and petitions.
They were simply discarded or destroyed by Bibi Dong.
By now, not only were most soul masters on the continent dissatisfied with Bibi Dong’s actions.
Even many elders and red bishops within the Spirit Hall were growing discontent.
The Elder Hall was no exception. If it weren’t for Qian Daoliu’s intervention.
The other elders would have stormed the Pope’s Hall and forced Bibi Dong to step down.
"Big Brother, are you really going to just watch Bibi Dong ruin the Spirit Hall?! If this continues, the Spirit Hall will be destroyed by Bibi Dong!!"
Golden Crocodile had come to Qian Daoliu countless times.
But Qian Daoliu always seemed indifferent.
However, this time, Qian Daoliu smiled faintly and said.
"Golden Crocodile, have Demon Subduer and Thousand Hands take the Elder Token to the Heaven Dou Empire and command the Spirit Hall there to be entirely under Xue’er’s control."
