But after only a two-second pause, Lin Yu stepped forward again, entering the sub-temple.
Tang Hao was indeed hidden in the shadows, and he had watched the entire scene of Lin Yu easily defeating Yu Xiaogang and his son, Tang San.
Watching his son being brutally beaten, Tang Hao was practically fuming!
However, Tang Hao could only watch; as long as Tang San wasn't dead or crippled, he didn't dare to easily step in to protect him.
Because Tang Hao sensed that two other Titled Douluo powerhouses were also hidden in the vicinity, he wasn't foolish and knew they were likely protecting Lin Yu and the others in secret.
Having two Titled Douluo powerhouses protecting them was enough to prove that Lin Yu and their background in Spirit Hall was extremely high.
If Tang Hao were to rashly step in to protect his son and attack Lin Yu, Tang San might not be able to learn, cultivate, and grow safely in society like a normal child in the future.
Tang Hao would then only be able to keep Tang San by his side, constantly moving and hiding.
This was not what Tang Hao wanted to see, so he could only endure.
"Little San, rest assured, one day, your father will properly teach that kid a lesson!" Tang Hao secretly clenched his fist.
"Teacher!!"
Tang San and Xiao Wu awkwardly crawled to Yu Xiaogang's side, and seeing their teacher so miserable and unconscious, Tang San had already harbored deep resentment towards Lin Yu.
He didn't feel anything about Yu Xiaogang's knowledge being plagiarized.
After all, Tang San stole Tang Sect secret manuals and unique arts.
It was the same as Yu Xiaogang stealing theories and knowledge; they were birds of a feather, both being the same type of person.
Both were despicable scoundrels who liked to steal, so naturally, he wouldn't have much of an opinion of Yu Xiaogang.
Tang San's eyes were bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth, secretly vowing: "Lin Yu, is it? I, Tang San, remember you!"
"A gentleman's revenge, ten years is not too late. This grudge today, I, Tang San, will surely repay one day!"
"Just you wait! I will definitely make you pay a heavy price!"
Although he was beaten to the point of doubting his life by Lin Yu today, Tang San was still full of confidence in his future.
After all, he had the Tang Sect Six Great Arts as a cheat, and he was very clear about how powerful the abilities he possessed were in this World.
Just the Hidden Weapons of the mechanical type alone had the power to instantly kill a Titled Douluo powerhouse!
As long as he continued to cultivate and grow, Tang San was very confident in surpassing Lin Yu and then becoming the strongest in the Douluo Continent, reaching the peak of Spirit Master power.
"Xiao Wu, let's go! Take Teacher back."
"Mm."
The two of them helped Yu Xiaogang leave.
After entering the sub-temple, Qian Renxue's expression suddenly became serious. She hesitated for a moment and asked: "Lin Yu, you just said that Yu Xiaogang used Bibi Dong to enter Spirit Hall to plagiarize knowledge, and that Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong were... were together before."
"Are all these things true?"
"Mm, this matter is indeed true." Lin Yu nodded.
Qian Renxue truly couldn't understand: "How could she have fallen for such a hypocritical, shameless scoundrel, and such a good-for-nothing back then?"
Lin Yu shrugged: "You'll have to ask her about that."
"Then, why did Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang break up back then, and then end up with my father, Qian Xunji?"
Lin Yu hesitated for a moment and replied: "This question, I think you will know the answer one day."
Back then, Qian Xunji strongly opposed Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang being together.
But that ungrateful Bibi Dong, in order to be with Yu Xiaogang, even abandoned Spirit Hall, which had nurtured her for many years, wanting to leave and elope with Yu Xiaogang.
So, Qian Xunji, in a fit of rage, confined Bibi Dong.
And threatened Bibi Dong that if she continued to have thoughts of being with Yu Xiaogang, he would kill Yu Xiaogang.
To protect Yu Xiaogang, Bibi Dong could only reluctantly give him up, and also because she was forcibly defiled by Qian Xunji.
So Bibi Dong found Yu Xiaogang again, deliberately saying words that humiliated him, striking at and hurting his self-esteem.
This was to break up with Yu Xiaogang, make him leave her, and completely sever ties.
But how could Bibi Dong have known?
Yu Xiaogang had already sensed that if he continued to be with Bibi Dong, he would be killed by Supreme PontiffQian Xunji.
He also knew that Bibi Dong was trying to protect him by deliberately saying humiliating words to break up with him.
However, the disgusting scoundrel Yu Xiaogang pretended not to know and decisively chose to abandon Bibi Dong at that moment.
He did like Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong was beautiful, with excellent looks and figure, and she was the Holy Maiden of Spirit Hall, with a high probability of becoming the Supreme Pontiff in the future.
How could Yu Xiaogang not like such a woman with beauty, talent, and status, and how could he want to leave Bibi Dong?!
But if being with Bibi Dong meant being killed by Qian Xunji, he, Yu Xiaogang, wouldn't do it.
So Yu Xiaogang deliberately pretended to be deeply hurt and heartbroken by Bibi Dong's humiliating words, taking the opportunity to get rid of, abandon, and decisively flee from Bibi Dong.
At that time, how could the naive Bibi Dong have imagined that after breaking up with her, Yu Xiaogang would be with another woman in less than half a year, and it was Liu Erlong from another family.
While Bibi Dong was enduring days of pain and despair after being confined, Yu Xiaogang had already found a new love, spending his days intimately with Liu Erlong.
Regarding these matters, regarding Qian Renxue's father being killed by Bibi Dong.
Lin Yu temporarily had no plans to tell Qian Renxue.
Because revealing this matter would definitely affect Qian Renxue's current state.
And it wasn't the right time.
Right now, what they needed to do was to become stronger and break through to godhood as soon as possible.
Lin Yu quickly changed the subject: "Alright, let's rest well in the sub-temple for a while, get enough energy. I plan to take action tonight and eliminate Bi Zhiyu."
"Mm!"
Afterward, Lin Yu, Qian Renxue, Dugu Yan, and Zhu Zhuqing ate something in the sub-temple and then went to rest separately.
Lin Yu had a good, long sleep.
When he woke up, it was already past ten o'clock at night. At this moment, Lin Yu was full of energy and had adjusted to his best combat state.
This time, he was going to solo an experienced and ruthless Spirit Emperor powerhouse.
Lin Yu couldn't afford to be careless against a powerhouse of this level.
"Young Master Lin Yu, Bi Zhiyu's residence is located in the western part of Nuoding City. He owns a manor there and is a famous wealthy and influential merchant in our area."
"The manor employs a hundred strong bodyguards, as well as five Spirit Grandmasters and two Spirit Elder powerhouses!"
"Su Yuntao requests to fight, willing to fight for Young Master Lin Yu!" Su Yuntao knelt on one knee, full of spirit.
"This Su Yuntao is quite good at handling things!" Lin Yu couldn't help but glance at Su Yuntao again, thinking: "No wonder in the original work, during the Spirit Master Competition finals, he was the one serving as the host in the Supreme Pontiff Palace."
Lin Yu smiled: "Good, then you can participate in the battle too."
"The other white-robed deacons of the sub-temple can lead the Spirit Hall personnel to handle the aftermath."
"Yes, Young Master Lin Yu!" Su Yuntao's heart filled with joy.
