Chapter 259: Too Tang
Hearing Bai Yu’s words, everyone laughed, thinking that Bai Yu was just telling a joke.
Tang Laoqi attacked from behind without martial ethics, so he deserved to die. Besides, in the Spirit Master's world, if you make an enemy, who wouldn't try to kill them?
As for not having the heart to do it, what kind of thing is that? How many gold coins is it worth?
“Hehe, since His Highness doesn’t have the heart for it, then let your subordinate do it. When we attack the Clear Sky Sect, your subordinate guarantees to split even earthworms in half vertically.”
Tuoba Xi chuckled, immediately pledging his loyalty.
Bai Yu glanced at Tuoba Xi, shook his head slightly, and thought to himself, ‘This person is truly heartless, opening his mouth to kill entire families.’
However, speaking of which, the Clear Sky Sect really needed to be taught a lesson. Otherwise, this bunch of hammer-wielders would always think that the Heavens were first, the Earth second, and they were third.
As for how it would end, it depended on whether the Clear Sky Sect would yield. If they didn’t, perhaps Tuoba Xi really would have to take action.
“Tuoba Xi, send a message to Pope, tell Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo to bring their men to find me, and then attack the Clear Sky Sect.”
“Yes, Spirit Hall Saint Child!”
…
On the other side, after Tang Xiao finished speaking with the Dai Family ancestor, he took two Elders and Tang Laoqi’s corpse and left the Star Luo camp.
Then, they picked up Tang San in Dai Mubai’s tent and, together, rushed back to the Clear Sky Sect overnight.
“Uncle, what happened? Seventh Elder, why did he become like this?”
Tang Xiao flew swiftly with Tang San, and Tang San, looking at the stiff Seventh Elder in the Fifth Elder’s arms, frowned tightly.
He couldn’t understand. Normally, a Title Douluo-level battle shouldn’t have reached the point of life and death. Why did Seventh Elder die?
Now that the war between the two nations had just expanded and hadn’t swept across the continent, wasn't it foolish for a Title Douluo to fight to the death at this time?
Hearing Tang San’s question, Tang Xiao sighed and said in a heavy voice:
“Alas, we encountered that Spirit Hall Saint Child. His strength is simply despair-inducing.”
“Seventh Elder died because when that Saint Child was fighting me, he launched a sneak attack from behind, trying to kill the Spirit Hall Saint Child.”
“It’s just a pity that he didn’t succeed, and it led to us being suppressed by his single move. Finally, Seventh Elder sacrificed his life to open a path for us.”
Tang San’s expression kept changing, cursing inwardly, ‘It’s this guy again, that damned Bai Yu, why does he always go against me?’
To be honest, Tang San wasn’t sad that Seventh Elder died, because he also wished this old man would die quickly.
But he could die, just not like this. He was still counting on these old men from the Clear Sky Sect to create some value for him.
As a result, no value was created, and he even brought disaster to the Clear Sky Sect, implicating him.
Tang San looked at Seventh Elder’s corpse, wishing he could flog it right now.
“Uncle, are we going to seal the Sect again when we go back?”
Tang Xiao shook his head, a helpless look flashing in his eyes.
“Seal the Sect? Sealing the Sect is useless now. Back then, Spirit Hall didn’t break into the mountain gate, not because they couldn’t, but because they didn’t want to.”
“It is said that because the Spirit Hall High Priest had a friendship with your great-grandfather Tang Chen, the Clear Sky Sect was given a way out.”
“But the current Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong has no ties with the Clear Sky Sect whatsoever.”
“Given her favoritism towards that Saint Child, if she knew that Seventh Elder launched a sneak attack, attempting to kill the Spirit Hall Saint Child, Bibi Dong would definitely lead an assault on the mountain, and the Clear Sky Sect wouldn’t be able to hold.”
“The only way now is to go back, disband the Sect members, temporarily scatter and go into hiding, waiting for an opportunity.”
Tang San’s mouth twitched. According to Tang Xiao’s words, wouldn’t the backing he found be gone?
In other words, he and Dai Mubai had been busy in Star Luo for two years, only to have worked in vain?
But Tang San had no choice. At this moment, he once again hated his own strength. Why was his progress so slow? Why couldn’t he be as powerful as Bai Yu?
After Tang Xiao and the others returned to the Clear Sky Sect, they immediately began organizing people to pack their belongings, hoping to evacuate the Clear Sky Sect as soon as possible.
However, when the Clear Sky Sect members heard Tang Xiao’s plan to have them go into hiding and scatter, they all showed dissatisfaction.
And because this was the Sect Master and Elders’ decision, there was no way to resist, so the efficiency was not very high.
It wasn’t until two days later that the Clear Sky Sect members finished packing their belongings, slowly preparing to leave.
“Members of the Clear Sky Sect, the Spirit Hall Saint Child has come to visit, why don’t you come out and meet him quickly?”
Before the Clear Sky Sect members could evacuate the mountain gate, a loud voice suddenly echoed from outside, reverberating through the mountains.
Tang Xiao and several Elders’ expressions changed drastically. They didn’t expect the Spirit Hall people to arrive so quickly.
“Elders, follow me to the mountain gate to block the Spirit Hall people. As for the rest, all of you leave from the back mountain. Don’t go together; save as many as you can!”
Tang Xiao wanted the Clear Sky Sect members to quickly escape from the back mountain, while he and several Elders would buy them time.
Although his idea was good, the Clear Sky Sect members did not intend to leave. Instead, they all clamored to teach Spirit Hall a lesson.
“Sect Master, why flee? What about Spirit Hall? Don’t they all have one head and two arms? What if we fight them?”
“That’s right, let’s fight! Spirit Hall has caused our Clear Sky Sect to be sealed for over ten years, and that debt hasn’t been settled yet. Now they’ve even attacked again.”
“If we don’t show them some color, they’ll think our Clear Sky Sect is easy to bully!”
“Mengzi is right, Sect Master, let’s fight. Spirit Hall is too overbearing. If we don’t repel them this time, even if we escape, the Clear Sky Sect will be finished!”
Tang Xiao’s face was bitter. If it were possible, why wouldn’t he want to fight?
But unlike this group of people who rarely left the Sect, Tang Xiao was very clear about Spirit Hall’s strength. Compared to them, the Clear Sky Sect was like an egg hitting a rock; there was no way to fight.
Just as his lips moved, wanting to forcefully order everyone to leave, a voice suddenly came from the sky.
“Oh? It seems your Clear Sky Sect’s fighting spirit is quite strong. In that case, let’s have a fight.”
“Twelve hours. If any of you are still alive after twelve hours, then I will no longer pursue the matter, and the Clear Sky Sect’s grievances with me will be written off.”
Tang Xiao’s pupils contracted. He turned his head and saw Bai Yu silently appearing above them, looking indifferently at the Clear Sky Sect members.
To be honest, Bai Yu didn’t like killing, especially personally. But this group of people from the Clear Sky Sect was simply too Tang; each one thought they were incredibly powerful.
He had already arrived slowly enough, yet they were still wandering around the Sect after two days. Were they really not taking him, the Saint Child, seriously?
