Chapter 218: Did Yu Xiaogang Rob a Grave?
Yu Xiaogang already realized the situation was dire; if he continued speaking and exposed Tang San's identity, then the trouble would be immense.
Unfortunately, he realized the trouble too late.
Bibi Dong had given him many opportunities to leave, yet he insisted on lingering here.
Now, he could not leave even if he wanted to.
Bibi Dong casually picked up the investigation file beside her and tossed it in front of Yu Xiaogang.
Upon learning that Tang San's father was Tang Hao, the Spirit Hall naturally needed to verify it.
Through the information Tang San submitted to register for the Spirit Master Tournament, the Spirit Hall had long since investigated him thoroughly.
From Holy Soul Village until now, Tang San's life history was all in the file.
His father was a blacksmith named Tang Hao.
The Clear Sky Sect's Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique was regarded by blacksmiths as the pinnacle of hammer techniques. If one said a person from the Clear Sky Sect could not forge, who would believe it?
Moreover, Holy Soul Village was not far from the location of the great battle back then; with various factors added together, it was confirmed that this Tang Hao was the Clear Sky Douluo who had beaten Pope Qian Xunji to death that year.
Seeing the contents of the file, Yu Xiaogang was speechless, his gaze dull.
It was over; everything was over.
At present, Tang Hao did not know that Tang San's identity had been exposed.
Now that the Spirit Hall dared to produce the materials, it was clear they had already made meticulous deployments, just waiting for Tang Hao to enter Wuhun Cheng to catch a turtle in a jar.
Yu Xiaogang knew clearly that the Spirit Hall possessed over half of the continent's Title Douluo.
With so many people surrounding and suppressing Tang Hao and his son, the outcome could be imagined!
But he seemed to have forgotten that since Bibi Dong dared to produce such confidential materials, it was clear he could not escape either.
Before long, the doors of the Pope Palace slowly opened; with every step the burly Golden Crocodile Douluo took, the ground trembled faintly.
When Yu Xiaogang noticed the person arriving, the Golden Crocodile Douluo had already reached him.
"Bibi Dong, a bet is a bet; Yu Xiaogang must pay the price for his actions!"
Bibi Dong turned away, no longer looking at Yu Xiaogang, "This seat does not want to see you people; get out quickly."
The Golden Crocodile Douluo snorted, casually grabbing Yu Xiaogang and walking out of the palace.
Yu Xiaogang struggled desperately, but he only had twenty-ninth level soul power; how could he break free from the ninety-eighth level Golden Crocodile Douluo?
Even if the digits of his soul power level were reversed, he would not be an enemy for a single move from the other party!
Yu Xiaogang desperately wanted to bring the news to Tang Hao and hurriedly took out the Pope Token.
"Golden Crocodile Douluo, I am also an Elder of the Spirit Hall; is this how you treat a colleague?"
The Golden Crocodile Douluo lowered his hand, and Yu Xiaogang was able to catch his breath.
Taking the token handed over by Yu Xiaogang, the Golden Crocodile Douluo could not help but laugh: "Do you know that the Pope Token has a secret mark left on it?"
Before Yu Xiaogang had even caught his breath, hearing these words, he felt as if needles were pricking his back, not daring to make the slightest movement.
How could the Pope Token issued by the Spirit Hall not have any markings?
Previously, Yu Xiaogang had used the Pope Token too smoothly, to the point that he became complacent.
Now it was done; he had actively handed his own handle to someone else.
The Golden Crocodile Douluo toyed with the Pope Token in his hand and smiled amusedly: "In this old man's view, this token clearly belongs to the Clear Sky Sect; why did it fall into your hands?"
"Did the Clear Sky Sect secretly conspire with you to use this to trip up the Spirit Hall?"
The Clear Sky Sect had almost become a forbidden word on the continent; anyone who had any connection to them would suffer the Spirit Hall's liquidation and retaliation.
How should Yu Xiaogang answer?
If he said he did not know anyone from the Clear Sky Sect, then he could not explain the origin of the token. If he said Tang Hao gave it to him voluntarily, would that not confirm his collusion with the Clear Sky Sect?
Now, he had not obtained the cultivation method for Twin Martial Souls from Bibi Dong, but instead had exposed his own purpose.
Bibi Dong was disappointed to the extreme with him; if he were dragged off by the Golden Crocodile Douluo to be beheaded as a public example, who could save him now?
Yu Xiaogang was in a state of extreme panic, and a pale yellow liquid leaked from his trouser leg, a foul, pungent odor wafting toward them.
The Golden Crocodile Douluo looked at the other party with disdain and immediately called out: "Someone, throw Yu Xiaogang into the Heavenly Prison and let him reflect properly on his mistakes."
……
That day, following Yu Xiaogang's imprisonment in the Heavenly Prison, he soon made a confession under the interrogation of the jailers regarding his impersonation of a Spirit Hall Elder.
Immediately, the Spirit Hall issued an announcement to the entire continent.
The content of the announcement was naturally to clarify that Yu Xiaogang was not an Elder of the Spirit Hall.
The rhetoric within it deviated from reality.
The Spirit Hall stated that Yu Xiaogang did not know where he had picked up a Pope Token, and in order to protect Shrek Academy's competition quota, he took out the token to impersonate a Spirit Hall Elder.
Having enjoyed the privileges brought by the Pope Token, he became unstoppable.
Furthermore, the announcement also pointed out that Yu Xiaogang was the son of Yu Yuanzhen.
Now, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family could be said to have lost a great deal of face in front of everyone on the continent.
Tang San and his group, who were participating in the promotion tournament, did not yet know about the Spirit Hall's announcement.
And because the competition area had Bone Douluo sitting in command, Tang Hao could not get close and could only hide in Tiandou City under an assumed name.
Seeing the Spirit Hall's announcement, he knew that something had happened to Yu Xiaogang.
Beforehand, he had repeatedly urged Yu Xiaogang to be careful, and this guy had even sworn to him with absolute certainty.
Now it was done; having been caught in the Spirit Hall's Heavenly Prison, even a god could not save him.
Through the information released by the Spirit Hall, Tang Hao knew that Yu Xiaogang had not betrayed him, only saying that the Pope Token was picked up.
This "picked up" had a great deal of depth to it.
It was very likely that he had dug up the grave of a deceased powerhouse of the Spirit Hall.
One must know that after a Title Douluo powerhouse falls, although their remains are placed in the Douluo Hall, their family members will still set up a cenotaph for the convenience of commemoration.
Personal items like the Pope Token are mostly placed inside a cenotaph.
Therefore, through this announcement, most people would guess that Yu Xiaogang went grave robbing.
But he is the son of Yu Yuanzhen; for the son of an Upper Three Sects Sect Master to go grave robbing, this is absolutely a major scandal!
It is foreseeable that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family will inevitably suffer the verbal attacks and criticism of the Soul Master World.
Of course, all of this has nothing to do with the Tang family.
Tang Hao is not certain whether Yu Xiaogang was thrown into the Heavenly Prison after obtaining the cultivation method for Twin Martial Souls from Bibi Dong and, due to getting carried away, was eventually exposed.
Or if he was thrown into the Heavenly Prison without even getting to see Bibi Dong.
If it were the former, Tang Hao would do whatever it takes to rescue Yu Xiaogang, as it would be beneficial for him and his son.
But for the next few days, no matter how Tang Hao inquired, he could not obtain any news at all.
After the Spirit Hall threw Yu Xiaogang into the Heavenly Prison, it seemed to have sealed off all information internally.
With no other choice, he could only wait for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family to take action.
Yu Xiaogang is, after all, the legitimate son of Yu Yuanzhen; both emotionally and logically, the latter would not sit idly by.
……
Inside the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family.
Yu Xiaogang's incident has brought immeasurable losses to the family!
Ever since the Spirit Hall's announcement was released, disciples of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family have frequently been met with mocking gazes while traveling on the continent.
With such a major event happening now, Yu Yuanzhen cannot keep it from everyone.
Having no other choice, he convened a sect assembly to discuss how to handle Yu Xiaogang and clarify the sequence of events.
