Chapter 64 Tang Hao Appears, Ning Rongrong Takes the Blame!
Having made up his mind, Tang Chuan no longer hesitated.
He immediately selected a dry and flat spot near the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, took out his small alchemy furnace, and began preparing to start refining pills.
He first set up the alchemy furnace, then took out the flaming stone from his soul tool, threw it into the furnace, and infused it with soul power to slowly ignite it.
A moment later, flames rose and heat surged in the furnace.
With a slight frown, Tang Chuan looked at the tulip in his hand and carefully plucked a petal from the top of the flower's stamen. He then took out a small amount of the stem and roots and carefully separated them.
Then it was thrown into the already heated alchemy furnace.
As soon as a small portion of the eight-petaled fairy orchid entered the flames, it turned into a ball of pink liquid. Then, Tang Chuan used his soul power to separate the harmful substances from the pink liquid and threw it on the ground.
After repeating this process several times, this small portion of the Qiluo tulip was successfully refined.
Finally, only a small pinch of red powder remained, which no longer contained any substances harmful to the human body. Subsequently, Tang Chuan used the same method to refine other immortal products.
Several hours later, a colorful pill was completely formed in the alchemy furnace.
This elixir was specially made by Tang Chuan for Dugu Yan.
It includes herbs such as tulip, chrysanthemum, narcissus, earthworm, and pumpkin, as well as some herbs that strengthen the body's foundation, detoxify, and improve physical condition.
The purpose was to help her improve her physique, enhance her soul power, remove the poison from her soul ring, and see if she could help her evolve her martial soul, the Jade Phosphorous Serpent, into the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor ahead of schedule!

Meanwhile, at Shrek Academy, in the principal's office.
At this moment, the atmosphere inside the room was somewhat heavy, and the air seemed to have frozen.
Flander sat behind the table, his face grim, his sharp gaze fixed on Ning Rongrong before him, his tone filled with anger as he questioned:
"Why were you able to talk about the faculty members like that?"
"Besides, Xiao Gang is my good brother of many years. How could I, as the dean, not know his strength and his level of martial spirit theory?"
"I'm not wrong. This Yu Xiaogang is completely incompetent. Otherwise, why would he vomit blood and faint after I said a few words to him?"
Ning Rongrong stood to the side, arms crossed, her face full of resentment.
"You…" Flander slammed his hand on the table, angrily interrupting, "If you keep this up, then pack your bags and get out of here right now!"
Ning Rongrong smiled. Although she was only twelve years old, she had to admit that her seemingly harmless smile was somewhat unsettling.
"Flander, who do you think you are? You're nothing but a mere Soul Saint."
"You want to kick me out? I'm not leaving, what can you do about it?"
Upon hearing this, Flander was not angry at Ning Rongrong's words, but smiled slightly and said, "That's right, I'm just a minor Soul Saint, but this is my territory, and I call the shots."
"If you anger me, I'll kick you out of Shrek Academy!"
"Flander, how dare you!" Ning Rongrong shouted arrogantly, hands on her hips. Although she was only a teenager, she exuded an extremely fierce aura.
"In all my years, you're the first person who's ever dared to treat me like this."
Flander smiled sinisterly and said, "Just because your father is reluctant to discipline you at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School doesn't mean I am. You're not my daughter, nor my darling. In my eyes, any student here is better than you."
"You look down on Xiao Gang, don't you? But do you know that Tang San is Xiao Gang's direct disciple? If you can defeat Tang San, or even if your soul power level exceeds Tang San's, then I'll agree with what you said: Xiao Gang is a piece of trash, and we'll get rid of him and keep you."
"Do you dare to compare yourself to Tang San?"
"If Xiao Gang is really as useless as you say, how come your cultivation level hasn't surpassed Tang San's? Or are the people of your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School even inferior to Xiao Gang? They're all trash."
"you"
Ning Rongrong's chest heaved violently, and for a moment she didn't know how to refute it.
Throughout the entire Douluo Continent, when it comes to sophistry, the people of Shrek Academy are second to none. Ning Rongrong is only a teenager, so how could she possibly be Flander's match?
At this moment, in a quiet room at Shrek Academy.
The room was dimly lit. The master lay quietly on the bed, his face as pale as paper. His body was wrapped in a quilt, and he looked extremely weak.
The food that had just been delivered was still warm on the wooden table beside the bed.
It was brought by Tang San himself; he had just left the room.
Slightly opening his eyes, the master suddenly heard footsteps outside the door, slow but steady. He assumed it was Tang San returning, and with a little strength, he whispered:
"Little San, you go and cultivate first. I can manage on my own; you don't need to take care of me."
However, the footsteps did not stop; instead, they grew closer and closer.
A moment later, the door creaked open.
A tall and imposing figure appeared at the doorway.
The newcomer wore a tattered gray robe, covered in dust and grime. His beard was disheveled, his eyes were deep and cold, and he exuded a suffocating sense of oppression.
The master was stunned.
A look of disbelief flashed in his eyes as he instantly recognized the person before him as Tang San's father. He said in a hoarse voice, "Tang Hao?! What are you doing here?"
"Master! Long time no see." Tang Hao slowly walked into the house and said in a deep voice, "After Xiao San encountered difficulties with Zhao Wuji when she entered school, I beat that guy up and have been staying near Soto City ever since, just in case something happens to Xiao San."
"But just as I expected, an unexpected event did occur."
The room fell silent instantly.
"Master, do you know? You've been targeted by the Spirit Hall." Tang Hao stood by the bed, his eyes sharp and solemn, and said slowly.
Upon hearing this, the Grandmaster's expression froze, his eyes filled with confusion: "What do you mean? How did we become the target of the Spirit Hall?"
Tang Hao didn't say much, but took out a letter that had been folded many times from his pocket and handed it to the master on the bed.
"You'll understand after reading this letter."
The master took the letter and carefully unfolded it. The paper was somewhat wrinkled, but the handwriting was still clear. It was signed by the Bishop of the Spirit Hall of Soto City, and the recipient was clearly written as—Pope Bibi Dong!
He quickly scanned the contents of the letter, his expression gradually becoming serious.
The letter clearly states:
In Soto City, a Soul Master named Tang San, whose Martial Soul is Blue Silver Grass, has been discovered. He is suspected to be the person His Holiness the Pope is looking for. The matter has been reported to Spirit City and is awaiting further instructions.
The master was startled, his face filled with shock, and he asked in bewilderment, "The Spirit Hall is looking for Xiao San? Why would they be targeting him?"
"Perhaps the higher-ups at the Spirit Hall have already guessed that he is my son," Tang Hao said slowly, his expression unchanged. "But don't worry, I've already dealt with the messenger."
"Including everyone who knew about this, I've already dealt with them all."
Upon hearing this, the master was even more confused and frowned, saying:
"That's not right. Xiao San's martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. How could someone possibly guess that it's related to you? Could it be that Xiao San used the Clear Sky Hammer at some point and someone discovered it?"
Tang Hao's tone was low and his gaze was as sharp as a knife as he solemnly said, "Since Xiao San came to Shrek Academy, he has only used the Clear Sky Hammer twice."
"The first time was during my battle with Zhao Wuji, when I was caught off guard and accidentally exposed myself. The second time was when I was hunting the Man-Faced Demon Spider in the Star Dou Great Forest. That time... no one saw it except me watching from the shadows."
After he finished speaking, the room fell into a brief silence.
The master on the bed looked solemn, his brows slightly furrowed, clearly deep in thought. After a moment, he murmured to himself:
"Zhao Wuji... I know him. He's an old friend of Flanders, straightforward, and wouldn't stoop to such a snitching act. Besides, the teachers present at the time were all people Flanders trusted."
"There shouldn't be any problems within the academy. So it can only be... that one of the students present at the time may have leaked the fact that Xiao San used the Clear Sky Hammer."
Slowly sitting up, the master's face was still pale, but a wise light shone in his eyes. He analyzed, "Xiao Wu, she would never betray the mistress. She and the mistress are like brothers, and their relationship... has long surpassed ordinary friendship."
"Although Dai Mubai and Oscar have different temperaments, they have been studying and living at Shrek Academy for many years. They were both taught by Flander, so there will be no problem with their loyalty. They can be considered Flander's confidants, so there will be no problem."
"Then, only two people are left—Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong."
Upon hearing this, Tang Hao lowered his head and remained silent, not uttering a single word.
The master continued his analysis:
"Zhu Zhuqing comes from the Star Luo Empire. I've heard Flander mention her. She has a close relationship with Dai Mubai. She came to Shrek Academy mostly for Dai Mubai. Moreover, she is usually taciturn and calm and cautious. She doesn't seem like the kind of person who would actively interfere in other people's affairs."
"Then... only Ning Rongrong from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School remains."
Upon hearing this, Tang Hao frowned immediately, his gaze becoming deep, and he murmured in a low voice:
"Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School..."
The master glanced at Tang Hao and said slowly:
"Your Majesty, I remember many years ago, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School harbored resentment towards your Haotian School. They were a purely support-oriented sect, while your Haotian School, known as the number one sect in the world, always held a superior position. Do you think it's possible that..."
