Chapter 74 (Seeking First Subscription!) Red Center
The mountains stretch endlessly, but one of them rises steeply into the clouds, its three sides sheer cliffs gleaming coldly like the fangs of a giant beast under the sunlight.
The girl with short, light blue hair looked up from the foot of the mountain. The sea of clouds surged between the mountain ridges, but only reached the halfway point of the most precipitous peak.
"I'm back for the second time..." Wang Dong'er murmured to herself, looking at the steepest peak.
This is the second time she has returned to the Clear Sky Sect since leaving, aside from the last time she came back to hunt for her third soul ring.
This time, she was preparing for an operation in the far north.
"Teacher, you'd better hide well later."
"Teacher knows," Electrolux's voice rang in Wang Dong'er's ears.
Since his last encounter with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, after falling into a deep sleep, Electrox's consciousness had recovered somewhat, and he has now finally awakened again.
With Electrox's awakening, the Soul Art began to evolve from its rudimentary form into a complete system.
However, the only sample that can be used for the Soul Spirit Technique is the symbiosis between Huo Yuhao and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. Their condition is a special case, so it is not universally applicable to start the complete deduction of the Soul Spirit Technique from this perspective.
Therefore, to truly and thoroughly deduce the Soul Spirit Technique, a highly intelligent Soul Beast like the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm is needed to actively cooperate.
Without a doubt, the only option left is to go to Hyotei.
Comparatively speaking, Wang Dong'er only has a better understanding of Hyotei.
However, finding Hyotei is one thing, and one's own life is another. Of course, one should make full use of everything that can be used.
That's why she returned to the Haotian Sect.
The Haotian Sect is now hidden on these treacherous cliffs. There is only one path up the mountain, but it is only relatively easier to traverse compared to the other three sides, which are completely impassable.
Wang Dong'er released her martial spirit and flew up the mountain path until she stopped to rest when she entered the clouds halfway up the mountain.
At the same time, a group of gray-clad figures quietly emerged from the clouds and mist. Wang Dong'er's right hand flashed with dark light, and the Haotian Hammer instantly appeared in her hand.
Upon seeing the Haotian Hammer, the group of gray-clad men immediately bowed to Wang Dong'er.
"Young Sect Master, you're back!" said the gray-clad man at the head of the group.
"Um."
Wang Dong'er also sheathed her Clear Sky Hammer, nodded to the group of gray-clad men, and asked, "Are the Grand Sect Master and the Second Sect Master in Clear Sky Fortress?"
The First Sect Master and the Second Sect Master are the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, whose human names on Douluo Continent are Niu Tian and Titan, respectively.
The elders of the Clear Sky Sect did have other ideas, but compared to Niu Tian and Titan, who had returned from the God Realm as "Limit Douluo," the strongest person in the entire Clear Sky Sect was only a level 98 Super Douluo elder, who had no ability to resist at all.
"The First Sect Master and the Second Sect Master are both at Haotian Fortress," the gray-clad man who had previously led the group answered Wang Dong'er's question.
"The two sect leaders have been talking about the young sect leader a lot lately."
Wang Dong'er remained noncommittal as she walked through the misty clouds along the mountain path. When she looked up again, a gray ancient castle had appeared on the mountaintop above the sea of clouds.
Passing through the arched main gate inscribed with the three large characters "Haotian Fortress", the true foundation of the Haotian Sect is revealed before your eyes.
Along the way, many disciples of the Haotian Sect who saw Wang Dong'er bowed to her without exception and addressed her as Young Sect Master.
Haotian Fortress has four levels. The "underground" level is used to store supplies, and the upper three levels are divided into three sections. The first level is where the direct descendants and collateral branches of the Haotian Sect live, and the second level is where the sect elders and guests are received.
The final, third floor is where Niu Tian, Titan, and Wang Dong'er live.
"Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle."
Inside the largest room on the third floor, Wang Dong'er pushed open the door and entered. Sitting in the main seat was a middle-aged man with long blue hair and wearing a white outfit, while next to him was a middle-aged man with short black hair and a gray robe.
These two are Niu Tian and Titan.
On the surface, they are just a level 99 Limit Douluo and a level 98 Super Douluo. Who would have thought that they were once gilded in the God Realm?
"Dong'er, what brings you back all of a sudden? Were you bullied at the academy?" Niu Tian asked with a smile.
Wang Dong'er thought to herself that there really was such a thing, but it wasn't the right time to play that card. Instead, she asked, "Uncle, Second Uncle, are my parents really just going on a long trip?"
Upon hearing this, the two men's expressions immediately changed.
"I always feel like I can hear another voice, saying he's my father..."
Niu Tian and Titan exchanged glances, and finally Niu Tian asked, "Did he say what his name was?"
Wang Dong'er shook her head. "I can't hear him clearly, but sometimes he calls me Xiao Qi, and there's another name I can't hear either, which seems to be calling me too."
Niu Tian and Titan exchanged a glance. They had wanted to call Wang Dong'er by her "real name" after the ceremony was successful, but they held back for fear of ruining Tang San's plan. They didn't expect Tang San to come out on his own.
However, judging from Wang Dong'er's description, Tang San seems to be in a rather special state, so it seems that he may have something to deal with when he comes back this time.
The two of them were perfectly clear about this. The reason they came down to the mortal realm was to provide the most basic support for Tang San's plans on the Douluo Continent.
"So, Dong'er, your return this time is related to that voice?" Titan couldn't help but ask.
"That's right." Wang Dong'er nodded. "That voice told me that there would be an opportunity for me in the far north, but only when I got there would he know what kind of opportunity it was."
"An opportunity in the far north?" Titan scratched his head in confusion.
Niu Tian, however, stroked his chin and began to ponder Tang San's intentions.
The two had no idea that this was just a reason Wang Dong'er made up on the spot, a way to trick them into becoming thugs.
After all, compared to Wang Dong'er's own research into the Soul Spirit Technique, or having an otherworldly soul as a teacher, it's much easier to simply attribute it all to Tang San.
Anyway, as long as you push it to Tang San, Niu Tian and Titan will start to convert on their own.
After a long silence, Niu Tian and Titan finally said, "Now that things have come to this, we won't hide anything from you anymore."
"Actually, your father is a truly powerful and upright person, but due to some special reasons, he cannot appear here now and can only guide you in this way."
I actually believed it!
Wang Dong'er vaguely felt a red mask appear on her face, and pressed her advantage, asking, "Then, what kind of place is the far north?"
Even though Niu Tian and Titan had gone to the God Realm for further study, they only increased their strength and had no idea what persuasive techniques were. They were completely tricked by Wang Dong'er in no time.
