Chapter 39 Receiving the News

"What did you say?"

"That kid became the disciple of the Pope of the Spirit Hall?"

"What makes that kid so special?"

In the main hall of Haotian Sect, after hearing the news from Baihe...

The three members of the Haotian Sect, Tang Wei, Tang Xiao, and Tang Hao, were all shocked and stunned by the news.

Tang Hao was shouting and yelling even louder.

He genuinely couldn't understand how that brat Gu Ziyi had caught the eye of the Pope of the Spirit Hall.

The little sister's attraction to him was already bad enough, but the Pope of the Spirit Hall was even worse!

Tang Hao originally admired Gu Ziyi quite a bit because Gu Ziyi had helped Tang Yuehua, and after learning about Gu Ziyi's talent, he admired him even more.

It's not bad that he can still help his sister despite not being very talented.

But everything changed after he found out that Gu Ziyi had designs on his sister. If Tang Xiao hadn't stopped him, he would have gone back and taught Gu Ziyi a lesson.

So now that he knows Gu Ziyi has been chosen by Pope Qian Xunji, he finds it hard to accept.

With such mediocre talent, what makes you think you can succeed?

"That's quite surprising, but there must be a reason why that kid was chosen by the Pope!"

"He must have some secrets about him, which is why the Pope took a liking to him!"

Tang Xiao was also very surprised, but he obviously wouldn't shout like Tang Hao; he just calmly analyzed the situation.

"snort!"

At this moment, Tang Wei, the sect leader of the Clear Sky Sect, let out a heavy snort, then said with hidden anger, "No matter what secrets he may have, now that he has become the Pope's disciple, it means he has chosen the Spirit Hall, not our Clear Sky Sect!"

Tang Wei didn't notice anything else, but he noticed this one immediately.

What does this tell us?

This shows that Gu Ziyi harbored resentment towards Tang Yuehua and the others for leaving without saying goodbye!

"yes!"

"That kid went to the Spirit Hall, which means he chose the Spirit Hall instead of coming to our Clear Sky Sect. How dare he?"

"It's a good thing we didn't bring him back. He doesn't like my little sister at all, otherwise he should have come to our Haotian Sect!"

Upon hearing his father's words, Tang Hao immediately realized what was happening and then spoke up angrily.

This made him even more unhappy with Gu Ziyi.

In his opinion, since Gu Ziyi likes Tang Yuehua, he should come to Haotian Sect. If he has any secrets or potential, he should tell them.

As long as Gu Ziyi truly has potential...

Bah! Someone like that, even if he has potential, doesn't deserve to like his sister.

As for Gu Ziyi and Tang Yuehua's affair, they couldn't keep it from their father after they returned, which is why Tang Hao spoke about it without any reservations.

Besides Tang Hao, Tang Xiao and Bai He's expressions also changed slightly.

Tang Wei's words made them realize what was happening.

Gu Ziyi has abandoned the Clear Sky Sect and chosen the Spirit Hall!

"hateful!"

"If I had known this would happen, I... I shouldn't have given him the soul bone in the first place!"

Tang Xiao couldn't help but clench his fists and snort angrily.

In fact, if he could, he would even say that he should have gotten rid of Gu Ziyi as soon as he knew.

He genuinely didn't want to hurt his younger sister's feelings back then.

"No matter what, he still did us, the Clear Sky Sect, a great favor!"

"Even if he chooses the Spirit Hall now, that's his choice!"

Only the white crane spoke a fair word at this moment.

Because no matter what, the Haotian Sect has made a profit.

A mere two-thousand-year-old soul bone is no match for Gu Ziyi's kindness to the Haotian Sect.

"uncle……"

Tang Hao was immediately displeased upon hearing Bai He's words.

However, Bai He's words were true, making it difficult for him to refute them.

"alright!"

"Let's leave it at that. Whether he truly has potential or not is no longer our concern!"

"For now, let's not let Yue'er know about this!"

Finally, Tang Wei lowered his voice and gave the final summary.

"Yes, Father!"

"I understand, brother-in-law!"

Tang Xiao, Tang Hao, and Bai He responded together.

Bai He's expression was slightly subtle. His daughter already knew about this, and he didn't know if she had gone to tell Tang Yuehua.

If so, Tang Wei's idea will fall through.

……

"What?"

"Cousin, are you telling the truth?"

"Gu Ziyi has become a disciple of the Pope of the Spirit Hall?"

Clearly, Baihe's guess was confirmed; Bailu had indeed found Tang Yuehua and told her the news.

"Yes, you have no idea how shocked I was when I heard the news!"

"I never expected that kid to be so capable!"

The egret answered with certainty, while also expressing its amazement.

"Hehe, if it's him, then there's nothing strange about it!"

"Gu Ziyi was already very capable!"

After her initial surprise, Tang Yuehua chuckled upon hearing Bai Lu's words.

She seemed to have an inexplicable confidence in Gu Ziyi.

That's why she dared to take the initiative to attack Gu Ziyi.

Unfortunately, her older brother saw through her plan in the end, otherwise she would still be able to secretly be with Gu Ziyi now.

Upon hearing this, Bai Lu rolled her eyes at Tang Yuehua: "Since you trust him so much, why didn't you write to him in the first place?"

"I……"

Upon hearing her cousin's words, Tang Yuehua's expression immediately changed.

She did want to write to Gu Ziyi at first, but she was afraid that the matter would be exposed and end up hurting Gu Ziyi.

So she ultimately held back.

Unlike the egret, she doesn't need to worry about so many things.

Even if she were exposed, the sect would probably just turn a blind eye to Bai Lu's behavior, but that wouldn't be the case for her.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore!"

Upon seeing Tang Yuehua's appearance, Bailu immediately stopped.

Anyway, she felt that it was pointless to say anything anymore. Gu Ziyi had now become a disciple of the Spirit Hall Pope, so there would be no more anything between Tang Yuehua and Gu Ziyi.

The Clear Sky Sect and the Spirit Hall have always been at odds!

Bai Lu glanced at her discreetly, wondering if her cousin had noticed.

She couldn't tell from Tang Yuehua's expression, but she wouldn't take the initiative to remind Tang Yuehua.

Tang Yuehua's cultivation is currently entering a phase of rapid growth, so it's best not to talk about things that could seriously affect her mood.

……

Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan!

At this moment, a little devil, upon learning that Gu Ziyi had been accepted as a disciple by the Pope of the Spirit Hall, was just as incredulous.

"He has the same innate level 1 soul power as me, so what makes him so special?"

Yu Xiaogang found it hard to understand.

Isn't a level 1 innate soul power a waste?

Moreover, how did the other person manage to reach level 14 at the age of 13?

He is 8 years old now, and even with his desperate cultivation and the sect's resources, his soul power level is only level 4.

If you give him another five years, it would be good if he could break through to level 10!

……

PS: Yu Xiaogang is one year younger than Bibi Dong; the author translated this from the original text. As for Yu Xiaogang's level 0.5, my setting is something Yu Xiaogang created himself later; there's no such thing as a half-level in Douluo Continent.
