In Douluo Continent, Tang San raids my base right from the start.

Chapter 267 Perhaps, this world really needs a cleansing!

Three months later, on a grassy area on an island.

Tang San, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, slowly opened his eyes, glanced at the dim sky, and murmured softly.

"Finally level 68."

In the past few months, aside from hunting and devouring sea spirit beasts, he devoted almost all his time to cultivation. Limited by the island's conditions, he even neglected forging hidden weapons. Even so, it still took him four months to advance one level. Frankly, he wasn't satisfied.

If he could hunt down Soul Masters and absorb their power to cultivate, he believed he could do it much faster!

He hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head.

"So much time has passed, it's time to go back to the mainland and do some research."

Thinking this, he got up and returned to his tent to pack, then flew away from the island under cover of night, heading towards the mainland at full speed.

Finally, before dawn, we arrived outside Hanhai City and happened to catch a glimpse of a notice erected on the side of the road.

"Damn it!" A mere glance ignited a fire of rage within him. His false identity was wanted, and his true self was listed as a top-priority criminal.

"Luckily, I've always been wearing a mask." The avatar depicted on the notice is wearing a mask and has a birthmark. As long as he removes both and tidies up his hair, he doesn't think he'll be recognized even if he shows his real body.

After all, six years have passed since the end of the Soul Master Competition, and things have changed. His appearance has changed considerably.

"Six years!" Recalling the six years of life on the run, Tang San's anger flared even more.

"Sooner or later, I will make everyone pay the price." Gritting his teeth, he turned and flew into Hanhai City.

He found a secluded corner to tidy up his clothes and appearance before stepping onto the street.

After making a brief inquiry, his anger flared even more. Everywhere he went, there were rumors that he had become a fallen soul master, and these rumors had been embellished in various ways.

Similar to the case of a child going missing, or a Soul Master's corpse being found in the Soul Beast Forest, the blame was always placed on him.

He's been overseas for the past few months!

"Blindly following the crowd is truly despicable!"

Tang San clenched his fist. Although he had guessed that this was the result of the Spirit Hall and other forces stirring things up, he was still extremely angry that these people were so ignorant and blindly obedient, and even added fuel to the fire to become accomplices in smearing him.

"Perhaps, this world really needs a cleansing!" he thought to himself.

I took a deep breath and went into a restaurant to eat.

As expected, he was not recognized and was treated as an ordinary customer.

Tang San ate his meal with great relish. After all, this was the first normal hot human food he had eaten in months.

So, after dinner that day, they visited the city's wealthy merchants again to steal supplies.

The following day, they flew to the Starry Sky Forest, purchasing necessary supplies along the way.

"Hmph, Spirit Hall, two great empires, since you've pushed all the work onto me, why can't I push it onto you?" Lost in thought, he arrived at a post station near the Star Dou Great Forest.

He hid in a tree branch not far away, observing the passing Soul Masters.

"Hmm? A student from Canghui Academy?" A cold glint flashed in his eyes. Canghui Academy had been quite disrespectful to him back then.

He immediately sat on a tree to cultivate, waiting for the people from Canghui Academy to set off, and then followed them all the way.

Once the group had ventured deep into the forest, he attacked without hesitation, killing them all.

The bodies were all stored in the soul guide device, leaving only traces of the battle, including the Canghui Academy school emblem and fragments of the exclusive uniform of the Spirit Hall deacon.

Afterwards, they would find a secluded spot to devour the corpse, then bury it on the spot without leaving any trace.

Afterwards, they immediately moved to another post station and attacked another team of Soul Masters.

The time required for the traces left in one's mind to be discovered, for the Spirit Hall to learn of it, and for someone to be sent to investigate.

A few days later, without the slightest hesitation, they flew straight to the Star Luo Empire side of the Star Dou Great Forest.

We will continue to follow the example and act accordingly.

Half a month later, in the Papal Palace of Wuhun City.

"Bang!" Bibi Dong slammed her hand on the edge of the chair after seeing Hu Liena's statistics, her eyes filled with chilling intent.

She didn't even need to think; someone must have framed her, and it was very likely Tang Hao and his son.

"Elder Ghost, send someone to contact the two great empires." He looked up at Ghost Douluo.

A few days later, the results of the joint investigation by the three parties came out. Each accident site had items belonging to the Spirit Hall. One or two could be considered a coincidence, but when there were so many, something was clearly wrong.

Furthermore, as the saying goes, even the most meticulous plans can have oversights. After comparing the traces of the fight at the scene of the accident multiple times, the investigation team finally discovered a clue: only one person had taken action, and they were likely using a vine-type martial soul.

The clues immediately pointed directly at Tang San.

Therefore, a joint search operation was launched again, with all the colleges and universities joining in.

"Heh." Tang San merely sneered, "Do you really think my Tang Clan disciples are made of paper? Trying to capture me? Dream on!"

"Now, let this continent tremble because of me."

Assassination is what Tang Clan disciples excel at!

They immediately changed their strategy, no longer confined to location or power, and began to travel to various places. Whether it was the Spirit Hall's investigation team or other spirit master forces, as long as they were absolutely certain of success in assassination, they would not hesitate to carry out the assassination operation, and then lie dormant to absorb and cultivate.

"Damn it!" The frequent deaths enraged all the major powers, especially the two great empires and the Spirit Hall.

Tang San's actions were a direct slap in their faces.

Even Qian Daoliu couldn't stand it anymore and immediately convened a council of elders, deciding to contact the major soul master forces and arrange for experts to intervene.

Thus, the Spirit Hall, the two great empires, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, various spirit master forces, and other spirit master forces, along with experts at the Spirit Emperor level and above, began to coordinate their actions.

They secretly planted themselves in various investigation teams to launch a countermeasure against Tang San's assassination attempt.

At this time, it was three months after Tang San returned to the mainland, in January, not far from the Chinese New Year.

On the plateau, Zhu Wu, sensing something, opened his eyes.

Ning Rongrong has finished absorbing the soul bone. With the help of the original owner's dragon soul, the fusion was indeed much faster. She woke up in just one year, a full year faster than Huo Wu had. Her soul power also reached level 54, which can be considered a small improvement.

"There's still a month until the New Year, which is a good time to adjust to the upgrade. I'll take you back to the sect after the New Year." Zhu Wu said with a smile as he teleported Ning Rongrong, who had become even taller and more beautiful after the soul bone transformation, to the outside world.

"Mmm." Ning Rongrong nodded, her smile bright, her eyes clear, like a fairy in a lake.

"We still have some time, let's cultivate together," Zhu Wu said softly.

"Mm." Ning Rongrong nodded obediently, walked to the side and sat down to begin cultivating, while familiarizing herself with her newly acquired abilities.

Meanwhile, on a mountain path, Tang San hid behind a tree, watching the group of seven ahead. The leader was dressed as a member of the Star Luo Empire's military, while the others wore different clothes, making it impossible to tell which faction they belonged to. But without a doubt, they were a hastily assembled team.

"A hastily assembled team dares to try and stop me!" Tang San said with disdain.

Once people have walked to a narrow section of the road lined with trees on both sides, pull the trap without hesitation.

At the same time, they preemptively unleashed their soul skills.

"Third Soul Skill, Spider Web and Snake Binding!"

He raised his hand and threw out the blue light in his hand.
