"History written for the victors is naturally going to be a bit embellished." Shi Yu understood the situation upon reading this.
The actual situation was probably that Tang San felt he couldn't win, so he decisively joined forces with Xiao Wu against the enemy.
In this part of the story, Tang Hao did appear. He didn't rush to cut off his limbs as he did in the original story.
How his thoughts changed was not mentioned above; this section primarily focused on Tang San, with relatively little mention of Tang Hao.
Tang Hao's appearance during the Tiandou Palace Coup was also a key factor that shattered Qian Renxue's plan.
After the trip to Sea God Island, Tang San and his companions all experienced earth-shattering changes, their strength greatly increasing.
The first thing Tang San did after they returned was kill Dugu Bo.
He had always held a grudge for being beaten by Dugu Bo at Tiandou Royal Academy back then.
Even though he was forced to temporarily join forces with Dugu Bo during the Tiandou Palace Coup, it still didn't make him let go.
He couldn't feel at peace without killing Dugu Bo.
Tang San, with his Soul Douluo strength, forcefully killed Dugu Bo. This established his reputation as the strongest young expert and was his first true display of prowess on the Continent.
Dugu Yan was also killed. It wasn't Tang San's style not to cut the grass by the roots.
Shi Yu's hand trembled upon seeing this. Although his relationship with Dugu Bo wasn't particularly deep, seeing it written that Dugu Bo was killed by Tang San still made him feel uncomfortable.
"If I don't go back, Yuan Lang should have been following Dugu Bo the whole time. Will he..." Shi Yu suddenly thought of Yuan Lang and nervously flipped through the pages, not wanting to see bad news.
After flipping for a while, he didn't see the name Yuan Lang at all. Yuan Lang was not mentioned in the text.
"Was he killed casually, or did he escape?" Shi Yu couldn't determine this for a time.
He would have to go to the library later to look at books about the history of the Body Sect to confirm.
If the Body Sect still existed and the founding ancestor was still Yuan Lang, then he might have escaped.
If not, perhaps even the Body Sect no longer existed in this era.
Of course, that wasn't certain. Even without Yuan Lang as the founding ancestor, there might have been another.
After all, Yuan Lang wasn't the only one with the Body Martial Soul. Perhaps someone else replaced Yuan Lang to found the Body Sect.
He felt that historical correction existed, and this might also be corrected.
Shi Yu continued reading, skimming the later content, which didn't change much from the development trajectory he previously knew.
Ning Rongrong, Ma Hongjun, and others who didn't get their talents enhanced by the immortal herbs eventually still became gods.
Although they missed the immortal herb opportunity, they had other opportunities on Sea God Island.
Ma Hongjun's Martial Soul evolved because of this, and Ning Rongrong's Martial Soul became the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, allowing her to cultivate to the Titled Douluo level.
Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai's aptitudes also improved to varying degrees.
This was also an important reason why they were able to become gods later. Of course, Tang San's influence was definitely involved.
When one person attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. Shi Yu wasn't sure about Tang San's character in other aspects, but he was indeed quite caring towards those around him, likely finding ways to help them.
Even if not out of friendship, he should have helped them become gods out of consideration for his own interests.
This way, he would have his own core group after entering the God Realm, and wouldn't be isolated and helpless.
Shi Yu went out to the Inner Courtyard library. He had permission to borrow some books here.
He found the books about the history of the Body Sect that he had read before.
He only slightly relaxed after confirming that the Body Sect still existed and that the founding ancestor was still Yuan Lang.
However, with a mind to verify, he carefully read, wanting to know if this Yuan Lang was the same Yuan Lang he had encountered.
"The founding ancestor of the Body Sect and the ancestors of Shrek Academy have an irreconcilable blood feud. Since its founding, it has repeatedly opposed Shrek Academy and Tang Sect. The enmity between the two sides is almost to the point of never-ending hostility. Any Shrek Academy student who encounters a disciple of the Body Sect, regardless of whether the other party is good or bad, must kill them to avenge the ancestors who died under the cruel blades of the Body Sect."
These were some words written at the end of the book, which made Shi Yu fall into deep thought.
From these words, he could feel that the enmity between Shrek Academy and the Body Sect was so deep that it was irreconcilable.
This was abnormal. Shrek did have a strained relationship with the Body Sect and there was significant enmity, but it shouldn't have reached the point where they would kill each other on sight regardless of the situation.
If that were the case, in the original story in Star Luo City, Xuan Lao should have directly killed the two Body Sect disciples he encountered, instead of just beating them up and letting them go.
What made him feel something was wrong was that the last time he read this book, this passage was clearly not there.
This was a sudden addition, and it shouldn't have been added arbitrarily. It meant that history had changed, causing the enmity to be much deeper than it originally was, which was why this passage was added to remind all Shrek Academy students who read this book not to forget the hatred.
"Could it be because Tang San killed Dugu Bo, and Yuan Lang had a close relationship with Dugu Bo because of me?"
"This made Yuan Lang resent Tang San. He wasn't Tang San's opponent, so he came to resent Shrek Academy and Tang Sect."
"After founding his sect, he actively sought trouble with Shrek Academy and Tang Sect to avenge Dugu Bo?" Shi Yu pondered for a long time and came up with an explanation that he felt was somewhat plausible.
Now he could basically confirm that the Yuan Lang he encountered was indeed the founding ancestor of the Body Sect.
"This kid is quite sentimental," Shi Yu couldn't help but smile. This was something he was happy to see.
If the other party was sentimental, it meant he had followed through on some things Shi Yu had entrusted to him before leaving.
In that case, if Shi Yu went to the Body Sect with the token, there was a high probability he would be taken seriously.
"It's just that I am currently a Shrek Academy student, and the relationship between Shrek Academy and the Body Sect has severely deteriorated."
"Going to the Body Sect like this would be quite awkward," Shi Yu thought. If he went to the Body Sect in the future, he would still need to wear a mask or something.
Anyway, they recognized the token. As long as he brought the token, it didn't matter whether he revealed his true face or not.
Shi Yu returned to his room and lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
Many thoughts intertwined in his mind, making his head messy.
He tried hard to think about things one by one to sort them out.
Once his thoughts were clear, he couldn't help but think about what he should do the next time he traveled back ten thousand years.
More precisely, the next time after next would be returning ten thousand years ago. The next time might be going ten thousand years into the future.
Before, he wasn't quite clear about the pattern, which led to not being fully prepared.
Now that he understood the pattern, he naturally needed to make conscious preparations.
For example, figuring out where the Xu family was located ten thousand years ago and the location of Slaughter City.
He still wanted to try Slaughter City. What if he cleared Slaughter City within seven days?
If possible, he even wanted to know where the remnants of the Qian family hid after the Hall of Spirits was destroyed.
The Le family, the Angel family ten thousand years later, originated from the Qian family. Having a connection with them would provide another relationship he could use.
He should also plan in advance what to do the next time he travels ten thousand years into the future.
He even needed to make some arrangements in this era to make things easier for him when he goes ten thousand years later.
