Dugu Feng was leisurely walking out of the Star Dou Great Forest.
He didn't let the Emerald Dragon Snake provoke the Titan Giant Ape and Sky Blue Bull Python again.
The two little snakes had been playing for nearly a month—it was time to leave.
In just over a year, the next Soul Master Competition would take place, which was also the original timeline's Soul Hunting Operation led by Bibi Dong.
Although through his schemes, Bibi Dong had been ambushed by the King of Slaughter, severely injured, and forced to use her hidden Divine Power...
Then he had stolen the 100,000-Year Soul Beast from her, severely delaying her progress in power enhancement.
But precautions still needed to be taken.
If his base were destroyed, all his efforts over this long period would result in massive losses.
Another matter concerned Xue Ye the Great. Poisoned by the Colorful Mottled Poison, he was already critically ill according to the timeline.
The throne of the Heaven Dou Empire was about to change hands, and unexpected events might occur.
After all, Heaven Dou City was now gathering various forces, filled with conspiracies everywhere.
Thinking of this, Dugu Feng couldn't wait to return to Heaven Dou City.
After leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, he relied on the flight ability of the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone to rush rapidly toward Heaven Dou City.
Heaven Dou City.
South District.
The territory of the Li Clan was vast, with thick courtyard walls.
At this moment, Soul Masters were constantly coming and going, expanding and rebuilding the entire mansion.
These Soul Masters all had the character "御" (Defense) embroidered on their chests, revealing their identity—Soul Masters of the Defense Clan.
"You brats, put more effort into it! This will be the future territory of our Four Element Clans!"
Titan, standing over two meters tall like a towering pillar, moved back and forth across the mansion, constantly shouting.
Beside him stood an old man half a head shorter, with a face like dark dates and hair stiff as steel needles. Though his hair was graying, his complexion was ruddy, his eyes sharp and bright, occasionally flashing with brilliance.
"Old gorilla, stop yelling. Don't you trust my people? This will be their own living place in the future!" This old man was Niu Gao, clan leader of the Defense Clan.
"Hmph, old rhino, this is my territory! I'll yell if I want to—what's it to you!
After our Four Element Clans merge, I'll be the sect master, and you'll be the deputy sect master. You'll have to listen to me!" Titan said proudly.
If Dugu Feng were here, he would be greatly surprised—the Four Single Attribute Clans had still merged.
And it had happened over a year earlier.
Without Tang San's recruitment efforts, they had merged in Heaven Dou City.
Niu Gao sighed helplessly, "Fine, you're amazing, alright? You're the one who ultimately won!"
Titan wore a triumphant expression, fully understanding Niu Gao's meaning.
What made him even prouder was that his years of management had accumulated connections and financial resources in Heaven Dou City.
This was why the old sect master had chosen him to lead the Four Element Clans.
Remembering the old sect master, Titan felt deep reverence.
In the Clear Sky Sect, everyone believed his loyalty lay with Tang Hao, as if only Tang Hao hadn't looked down on forging techniques and had supported the Li Clan.
But in truth, even before Tang Hao, it was the old sect master Tang Bo who had supported him more.
Tang Bo, as the son of Tang Chen, inherited his father's talent and grand ambitions. With his support, the Four Single Attribute Clans were established, and other subordinate clans also flourished.
Originally, according to Tang Bo's plan, under the invincible protection of his father Tang Chen on land, the Clear Sky Sect could enjoy several decades of stable development. As long as the second, third, and fourth generations of direct descendants, along with the subordinate clans, developed properly, the Clear Sky Sect's strength would not be inferior to the Spirit Hall.
Unfortunately, Tang Chen suddenly disappeared, and the conflict between Tang Hao and Qian Xunji disrupted the Clear Sky Sect's momentum of development.
Tang Bo clearly understood that without Tang Chen, the Clear Sky Sect was no match for the Spirit Hall. He decisively chose to submit and feigned death to appease the Spirit Hall's anger, preserving the Clear Sky Sect's strength.
Titan vividly remembered what Tang Bo said to the four of them after the sect decided to close its mountain gates.
"My father has been absent for a long time. Qian Xunji's actions might be testing whether my father is still alive. As long as they are uncertain of his death, they won't dare to push the Clear Sky Sect to the brink.
But the Spirit Hall is too wary of us. I have decided to cut off our wings, ostensibly abandoning all subordinate clans and closing the mountain gates to quell the conflict.
Next, I will secretly search for my father. You, the Four Element Clans, will settle separately in Heaven Dou and Star Luo, developing independently and waiting for the right opportunity!"
Titan recalled that day, when they learned of Tang Bo's decision, he, Bai He, Niu Gao, and Yang Wudi were all tearful.
The Clear Sky Sect, which was just about to realize its grand ambitions, was suddenly cast down into the dust.
The four of them had no time to grieve and could only immediately lead their clans to disperse, preparing to endure hardships and wait for the day of resurgence.
Throughout this process, only they four knew that Tang Bo had not abandoned them.
Even the next sect leader, Tang Xiao, believed his father was truly dead and that the Four Single Attribute Clans had genuinely been abandoned.
Only in this way did the remaining direct descendants of the Clear Sky Sect feel deeply humiliated, cultivating with resentment while the mountain gates were closed, leading to the remarkable feat of all five elders breaking through to become Titled Douluos.
Titan admired Tang Bo wholeheartedly.
His loyalty was to Tang Bo.
Originally, everything was progressing positively, and the Clear Sky Sect even produced a Twin Soul Spirits possessor—Tang San.
As long as Tang San grew up, the Clear Sky Sect could settle accounts with the Spirit Hall in one fell swoop and become the strongest force on the continent.
Whenever Titan thought of such a scene, he was overwhelmed with excitement.
But in recent years, turbulence gradually emerged.
The Clear Sky Sect encountered one setback after another: first, they fell out with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, and then they clashed with the Spirit Hall again.
Some time ago, the Third Elder was killed by Bibi Dong, causing an uproar.
Titan watched anxiously, his heart filled with urgency.
He longed to meet Tang Bo to determine the next course of action.
Finally, half a year ago, he received Tang Bo's command.
The Four Element Clans were to merge, establish a foundation in Heaven Dou City, fully align with the Heaven Dou Empire, and continue developing their power.
Tang Bo also explained the reason.
He had sensed danger—a hidden force was targeting the Clear Sky Sect, and at the same time, Bibi Dong's strength exceeded everyone's expectations.
Tang Bo predicted that Bibi Dong could reach the level of Tang Chen and Qiandao Liu.
Once that time came, it would result in another great war, with one side destroying the other.
The Clear Sky Sect was Bibi Dong's target, and they were bound to face brutal attacks next.
The death of an elder was clear proof of this.
Kang Bo decided to ally with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Heaven Dou Empire, relying on each other for mutual support, in order to buy more time for Tang San's growth.
Upon receiving the Old Sect Master's instructions, Titan felt greatly reassured.
He now had a clearer understanding of the situation.
Most of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's forces had already moved into Heaven Dou City.
It seemed the Old Sect Master intended to follow their example.
