Douluo: Evolution from the Human-Faced Demon Spider

Chapter 213: Tang Sect Reappears
Tang Jiu hadn't realized her situation yet, and returned to her room in the inner courtyard in a depressed mood.

"Damn it, what on earth did that little bitch Zhu Zhu do? How could her soul power increase so much in just one month?"

She still couldn't accept the reality that she lost to Zhu Zhu. What was even more unacceptable to her was that Zhu Zhu, whose spiritual power had always been superior to hers, actually ran ahead of her.

The half-open door of her room not far away seemed to be touched by something and opened with a creaky sound, which scared Tang Jiu.

She pouted and walked over, slammed the door and closed it again. But she didn't realize that Fang Chang had already turned on the "stealth" mode and quietly entered her room.

A short piece of blue silver grass appeared in her palm. "I don't know what happened to the other two guys. If they can't stand out in this competition, then..."

Her mumbling suddenly stopped, and a strange voice sounded in her heart, "Who is Tang San to you?"

"Who are you?" Tang Jiu's hair stood up and he asked cautiously, "What, what Tang San? I don't know this person."

"Don't know? Are you sure?" Fang Chang asked.

"I really don't know any Tang San. How can someone have such a rustic name?" She looked aggrieved, but it didn't seem like she was pretending.

Huh? Fang Chang frowned, and he sat down on Tang Jiu's bed while sneaking. Hearing the noise coming from the bed, Tang Jiu was so scared that he shrank against the wall, not daring to move.

"You, who are you? What do you want to do in my room?" An invisible enemy was in his room, speaking to him as if interrogating him, and the voice still echoed directly in his heart.

Anyone would be scared if they were in this situation.

Fang Chang did not intend to answer her, but slowly approached her. At the same time, a trace of soul power pressure emanated from his body, causing Tang Jiu's psychological defenses to collapse.

"So, do you know an organization called Tangmen?" Fang Chang asked again.

"I...you, how do you know this?" When asked about the Tang Sect, the expression on Tang Jiu's face obviously changed, with surprise in his fear.

"It seems you know?" This time Fang Chang did not use telepathy, but spoke directly into her ear.

At such a close distance, the breath from Fang Chang's mouth would hit her face when he spoke, making her already tense nerves almost reach the brink of collapse.

Tang Jiu knelt on the ground, "I know, I know, sir, please don't kill me. I will tell you everything I know."

Alas, is it that easy? Fang Chang didn’t expect that she had such little ambition.

"Just talk, I'm listening. Don't blame me if I find out you're hiding anything..." Fang Chang lifted a strand of hair by her ear with his fingers, showing his presence but still maintaining a "stealth" state.

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything." Tang Jiu's eyes were red, and he was almost roaring.

"The Tang Sect is an ancient sect that was once prosperous for a period of time, but with the soul guides brought from the Sun-Moon Continent, we declined."

"The Tang Sect is now in decline, and its members are estimated to be less than a hundred, scattered across the continent."

"And the people of the Tang Sect would be willing to look for some people whose martial souls are blue silver grass and who have a certain talent for cultivation to be the Sect Master of the Tang Sect." Tang Jiu almost never stopped talking, and what she said was not much different from Fang Chang's guess.

"Then what is your relationship with the Tang Sect? Are you the current leader of the Tang Sect?" When Fang Chang asked this, his tone became a little higher, with a hint of murderous intent.

Tang Jiu was so frightened that he burst into tears, "No, no, no, I am not the leader of the Tang Sect."

She hurriedly defended herself, "This generation of the Tang Sect selected three people as successors, and I am one of them."

"They will choose one to be the final leader of the Tang Sect before the three of us turn 25, based on our strength, talent, and influence."

"Before this, I was just one of their soldiers. Please don't kill me."

Fang Chang looked at the frightened heir of the Tang Sect and laughed secretly, "Then do you know the location of the Tang Sect?"

"Where is the Tang Sect?" Tang Jiu was stunned for a moment. "I only know that the Tang Sect's headquarters is in the Sun Moon Empire, but I don't know the exact location."

"How dare you lie to me?" Fang Chang raised his voice slightly, and said in a dignified tone, "Then how do you usually contact the people of Tang Sect?"

"I dare not. I really didn't lie to you, sir." Not far from the academy, close to the Star Dou Great Forest, there is a Tang Sect contact point. I usually contact the people of Tang Sect through them.

"Is that so? You're sensible." Fang Chang already had a general understanding of the current existence of the Tang Sect.

Their situation seems to be slightly better than in the original "Douluo Dalu II", but not much better.

As for this Tang Jiu, he probably doesn't have much direct relationship with Tang San. It's just that his martial spirit is the same blue silver grass and he just happens to have the last name Tang.

Compared to these, he was more concerned about who resurrected the Tang Sect? Where are those people now? What is their strength?
But it seems that the little girl named Tang Jiu in front of him is not clear about these questions.

The Tang Sect's actions now seem to be very cautious, as if they are always fending off a powerful enemy.

Fang Chang had a hunch that the enemy they were wary of might very well be himself.

Fang Chang had no intention of letting this so-called heir of the Tang Sect go. After asking her to draw a rough map of the Tang Sect's contact points, he killed her with poison.

They also created a false impression in her room that she had committed suicide by taking poison.

After doing all this, Fang Chang slowly left and returned to his residence in the outer courtyard alone.

The next day, he quickly found the Tang Clan contact point Tang Jiu had mentioned according to the map he had drawn.

Here he only saw an old Soul King who was probably in his sixties or seventies. He easily forced an important piece of information out of him.

The Tang Sect's scattered troops across the continent will gather in the Sun-Moon Empire for a rally in a few months, which is when the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition is held.

It is very likely that the final candidate for the Tang Clan's leader will be decided at that time.

Chang Fang did not destroy this contact point, but simply dispersed the old Soul King's soul power and threw it into the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest.

He also left a mark here, so if someone came to deliver a letter, he would be able to sense it at the first moment.

After this, the academy kept the news of Tang Jiu's death a secret, and her name was even on the list of participants in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Competition.

It was just announced to the public that due to tactical changes, Ning Wan'er was promoted to the position of main player, while Tang Jiu became a substitute.

Only a few high-ranking people in the inner courtyard knew that the academy did so because it was completely coerced and was just covering up for others.
