The next day.
The news of the Lin Sect's confrontation with the Clear Sky Sect and the latter's destruction spread throughout the Douluo Continent, leaving countless forces in awe.
Heaven Dou City, the territory of the Strength Clan.
When Tai Tan heard this news, he couldn't believe it. How could the majestic Clear Sky Sect be destroyed by a rising power like the Lin Sect? How was this possible?!
So now, where should the Tai Tan Clan go from here?
"Clear Sky Douluo, where are you now? Our Strength Clan needs your leadership."
As Tai Tan was muttering to himself, two figures silently appeared in the main hall of the Strength Clan, where Tai Tan was located.
One figure was eerie while the other was ghostly, but the gaze they directed at Tai Tan was filled with bone-chilling killing intent.
"We don't know where the Clear Sky Douluo is, but your Tai Tan Clan will be exterminated today."
A sinister voice echoed in the hall, sending a chill down Tai Tan's spine. He whipped his head around and saw the two figures in the hall, his face filled with terror.
"You... you are the Spirit Hall's Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo! Why are you here?!"
These eerie and ghostly figures were Bibi Dong's two top henchmen, the Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluos.
"Stupid gorilla, didn't we just say? We're here to wipe out your Strength Clan."
Hearing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo chuckled while covering his mouth, his words carrying a bone-deep coldness.
The Clear Sky Sect had already been destroyed, and its subordinate force, the Strength Clan, was an entity that the Supreme Pontiff believed absolutely could not be allowed to survive; they had to be pulled out by the roots.
Thus, these two capable assistants of Bibi Dong were sent to exterminate the Strength Clan.
With his and Gui Mei's cultivation at the level of ninety-fifth-ranked Titled Douluos, wiping out a force that didn't even have a single Titled Douluo was child's play.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Ghost Douluo beside him struck first. His figure moved like a phantom, arriving before Tai Tan in an instant. His spirit power surged as his dark hand gripped the neck of this attack system Spirit Douluo.
Tai Tan, a mere Spirit Douluo who hadn't even achieved a Breakthrough into the Titled Douluo rank, had no power to resist when facing Gui Mei, a ninety-fifth-ranked Titled Douluo.
In the next moment.
Ghost Douluo's spirit power surged, and with a sudden burst of strength in his palm, he strangled this foolish and stubborn man to death.
Then, he and Chrysanthemum Douluo covered the Strength Clan's territory with their mental force and began the bloody slaughter.
Bibi Dong had ordered that not a single member of the Tai Tan Clan be left alive; they all had to be exterminated.
On this day, in Heaven Dou City, the Tai Tan Clan met its end. From then on, the Tai Tan Clan was extinct.
After wiping out the Strength Clan, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo proceeded to the other three subordinate clans of the Clear Sky Sect—the Breaking Clan, the Defense Clan, and the Speed Clan.
However, these three families were different from the Strength Clan. Bibi Dong's order was that if these three families abandoned the darkness for the light and submitted to the Spirit Hall, they would be spared.
If they remained obstinate and continued their loyalty to the Clear Sky Sect, they would be sent to the same fate as the Strength Clan.
The news of the Clear Sky Sect's destruction was known not only to the Strength Clan but to every prominent power on the entire continent.
This led them to marvel at the Lin Sect's power. In just one day, one of the Upper Three Sects—a powerful Sect that once produced a super Douluo—was destroyed, which was truly a cause for sighing.
At the same time, the leaders of various forces had established a rule in their hearts: they must never provoke the Lin Sect, or else the fate of the Clear Sky Sect would be theirs.
Inside the Crown Princes Palace in the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.
Lin Chen lay on the Crown Prince's bed, holding an exquisitely beautiful blonde woman.
"Xue'er, I should be going to Spirit City in a while. Do you want to come with me?"
Looking at the gorgeous Qian Renxue in his arms, Lin Chen asked.
The reason he invited Qian Renxue to go to Spirit City was that he wanted to resolve the emotional knot between the mother and daughter, Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong.
In truth, both women were sharp-tongued but soft-hearted, and neither was willing to bow their head and admit fault, which led to their relationship being very cold.
But now, since both Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong had become his women, he had to make their relationship more amicable.
Qian Renxue, in Lin Chen's arms, hesitated upon hearing his invitation, as she truly didn't know how to face that woman, Bibi Dong.
After a long time, Qian Renxue's gaze gradually became firm. She looked at Lin Chen and nodded gently, her voice as faint as a mosquito's hum.
"Mhm."
Seeing Qian Renxue agree, an excited smile appeared on Lin Chen's face. It seemed this crucial step was successful; now it was just a matter of how he would act to improve the relationship between the two women.
Then, Qian Renxue seemed to remember something and said to Lin Chen:
"A Chen, after we arrive at Spirit City, how about I take you to see my grandfather first, and then go see Bibi Dong?"
Since they were going back to Spirit City, Qian Renxue wanted to take Lin Chen to meet her Family, to let them know she was happy, had met the person she loved, and that her lover was very outstanding.
This way, her grandfather wouldn't have to worry about her marriage, and she would have a shoulder to lean on in the future.
"Alright, Xue'er, I'll accompany you."
After agreeing to Qian Renxue, Lin Chen held the young woman's delicate body and gave her exquisite face a peck.
Then, Lin Chen skillfully pulled down the bed curtains and gave the Qian Renxue in his arms a wicked grin.
Seeing Lin Chen like this, Qian Renxue's face turned red, and she pouted, "You big baddie, you want to bully me again."
Although Qian Renxue said that, the fact that she held Lin Chen even tighter showed that her actual thoughts were quite different.
In Shrek Academy, located in Suotuo City, far away from Heaven Dou City.
A burly middle-aged man was supporting a half-lame little Fatty, and beside them, a man with an aquiline nose was supporting a half-lame middle-aged man with a stubbly beard and a buzz cut.
"Xiaogang, Hongjun, we've finally found you two. You've suffered during this time."
The man with the aquiline nose was Flender, the dean of Shrek Academy. He looked at the buzz-cut man and the half-lame Fatty, his slightly sharp voice ringing out.
Clearly, the buzz-cut man was Yu Xiaogang, the half-lame Fatty was Ma Hongjun, and the burly man supporting Ma Hongjun was Zhao Wuji.
"Flender, why didn't you find us sooner? Do you have any idea what kind of cruel punishment Hongjun and I endured in there?"
Seeing Flender mention this, Yu Xiaogang pinched his fingers into an orchid gesture and spoke with a face full of pain.
Ever since they were sent to Chunhua Tower by Lin Chen and Hu Liena, the life he and Ma Hongjun lived every day was unspeakably miserable; the mental and physical torture had nearly broken them.
Suddenly, Yu Xiaogang's body shuddered violently as he recalled something terrifying. A pool of yellow liquid fell between his feet, emitting a foul stench.
"Xiaogang, you... how did you lose control of your bladder again?"
