Chapter 21: Lin Yu's Deduction — The Full Story Unveiled!
Inside the livestream room—
After publicly dismantling Yu Xiaogang, Lin Yu was finally ready to present his full theory about the truth behind Tang Hao and Ah Yin's tragedy.
His speculation was based on the original plot from his past life, merged with conspiracy theories from fan discussions, and refined through logical deductions using the livestream's footage and context.
After thorough analysis and revision, Lin Yu was confident—his version was at least 80% accurate!
Whether Tang Hao admitted it or not, Lin Yu's explanation had airtight logic and motive. It would be enough to convince the entire continent!
[Lin Yu (thoughtful): Based on what I know, Ah Yin and Tang Hao met during a joint training journey with Tang Xiao. The three hit it off and became sworn siblings. Eventually, both brothers fell in love with Ah Yin, but she chose Tang Hao.]
[Lin Yu: Now here's where it gets interesting.]
[Lin Yu: After Ah Yin chose Tang Hao, Tang Xiao respectfully withdrew. To give them space, he likely returned alone to the Clear Sky Sect.]
[Lin Yu: Now I can't say for sure if Tang Xiao told their father—the sect leader at the time—about Ah Yin's true identity. But later, when Ah Yin reached maturity in her cultivation and Tang Hao planned to marry her, they definitely returned to the Clear Sky Sect.]
[Lin Yu: Once back, Tang Hao probably met his father privately, revealed Ah Yin's identity, and sought his blessing. But instead of approval, his father strongly objected—refusing to let his son marry a 100,000-year soul beast. Despite this, Tang Hao defied him and left the sect with Ah Yin to marry her anyway.]
[Lin Yu: After that, they lived in hiding. But let's be honest—whether in the human or beast world, a union between a human and a 100,000-year soul beast is taboo. His father was likely furious but could do nothing since Tang Hao had disappeared.]
[Lin Yu: Then, Ah Yin became pregnant. Tang Hao, thinking this might soften his father's heart, sent him the news. That's when the sect leader devised the perfect scheme.]
[Lin Yu: The plan was to pretend to accept the couple. He'd have Tang Hao bring Ah Yin to a specific city for a reunion with the family—including the unborn grandchild.]
[Lin Yu: He probably told Tang Hao that the sect's elders still opposed the union, so returning to the sect wasn't an option—but a secret meeting elsewhere could happen.]
[Lin Yu: Trusting his father, Tang Hao brought Ah Yin to that city… and triggered the tragedy.]
[Huyan Zhen: Wait a minute! If the Clear Sky Sect risked so much, what could they possibly gain?!]
Lin Yu sighed. There were too many slow thinkers—time to spell it out.
[Lin Yu: Fine. Let's look at it from the father's perspective and examine what he stood to gain from betraying his own son and daughter-in-law.]
[Lin Yu: First, he absolutely forbade the union. The risk to the sect's reputation, if word got out, would've been catastrophic. He couldn't allow that.]
[Lin Yu: But having a 100,000-year soul beast for a daughter-in-law offered a massive advantage. If Ah Yin sacrificed herself to Tang Hao, he'd become the youngest Title Douluo ever—with a 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone.]
[Lin Yu: And since Tang Hao belonged to the Clear Sky Sect, his power boost would directly benefit the sect as a whole.]
[Lin Yu: So, he lured Tang Hao to the city, knowing the Pope Qian Xunji would take the bait. Of course Qian Xunji coveted Ah Yin—but he wouldn't start a war over it. He'd just pressure the sect through threats of exposure.]
[Lin Yu: The father didn't let Tang Hao bring Ah Yin back to the sect precisely for this reason. If Tang Hao was exposed outside the sect, he could claim ignorance. If Tang Hao didn't resign, he'd be forced to denounce him to protect the sect's name. Either way, the plan allowed for full deniability.]
[Lin Yu: Ah Yin, deeply in love, would sacrifice herself to save Tang Hao. He would rise to unmatched strength. The sect would dodge a reputation scandal, gain a powerful heir, and escape scrutiny—because even if Spirit Hall exposed them, no one could blame them.]
[Lin Yu: But then…]
Lin Yu's voice turned cold.
[Lin Yu: No one expected Pope Qian Xunji to be so incompetent. He had a god-tier martial spirit, the Seraphim, and was a veteran Title Douluo—yet he got nearly killed by a newly ascended Tang Hao and died not long after.]
[Lin Yu: That death shattered the fragile balance. If Qian Xunji had survived, Spirit Hall would've had no justification to attack. They'd have swallowed the insult. But his death forced Spirit Hall's hand—and that's where the Clear Sky Sect's plan collapsed. The sect leader miscalculated Qian Xunji's strength.]
Truth be told, Lin Yu knew the scheme had been nearly perfect.
Had it worked, the Clear Sky Sect would've gained a mighty heir, protected their reputation, and kept their hands clean.
With a vendetta against Spirit Hall, Tang Hao would've poured his life into strengthening the sect for revenge.
But then Yu Xiaogang—the waste—got involved. His presence triggered Qian Xunji's infamous "sealed room incident," leading Bibi Dong to turn dark and ultimately kill Qian Xunji with her legendary "Big Brother, take your medicine!" move.
Lin Yu was sure Qian Daoliu knew Bibi Dong had killed his son.
But with Xunji dead, and Qian Renxue already born—what could he do?
He couldn't kill the mother of his granddaughter.
He couldn't tell her the truth either.
So he pinned the blame on Tang Hao and unleashed war on the Clear Sky Sect to save Spirit Hall's face.
That's when everything fell apart for the sect.
And Tang Hao's father?
He died consumed by guilt. His "perfect" plan had failed catastrophically.
Maybe he was wounded during Spirit Hall's siege.
Maybe he lay bedridden, tormented by regret—unable to confess the truth.
And in that pain, he quietly passed away.
