"The elders have been waiting for a long time. Come with me."
Before Tang Hao and his son could explain their identities, one of the two people guarding both sides of the main entrance said to them.
Tang San had never been to Haotian Sect and didn't think there was anything wrong.
Tang Hao has not been home for many years, so he thinks this is natural.
Tang Long and the others were a little surprised. Today's guards were so "high-spirited"?
The three of them followed Tang Yuehua's arrangement and went down the mountain to pick up Tang Hao. Tang San and his son went up the mountain.
You must know that in these years, the Haotian Sect has always closed the mountain gate and never receives members of other sects.
Even those affiliated with the sect, they have no right to step into this door and can only enter the small village at the foot of the mountain.
Only direct disciples are eligible to enter.
So these gatekeepers, who had always only recognized the "Haotian Hammer", actually let them in today.
This is really a strange thing.
What else is there, "the elders have been waiting for a long time." They know that Tang Hao and his son are coming back, so they won't deliberately cause trouble, right?
Tang Hao has not been back for many years, so how would he know about these rules?
Tang Chen also didn't understand these rules, so he came back first and exempted them from this rule.
Soul masters are very sensitive to the soul power of others, and some people can even use this perception to replace their own eyes.
The higher their soul power level, the wider and more detailed the range they can perceive.
Tang Chen is a ninety-ninth-level titled Douluo, one of the three peerless Douluo in the world, and his range of perception is naturally very broad.
Therefore, Tang Chen sensed it when Tang Hao and the others were still at the foot of the mountain.
Yes, Tang Yuehua can arrange people.
However, as the backer of the Haotian Sect, Tang Chen certainly had his own arrangements.
Just as the guard said before, at this moment, the five remaining elders of the Haotian Sect are already waiting for their father and son in the meeting hall.
"Haoer, mistress, you are back."
Seeing them walking in, Tang Chen, who was sitting at the top, nodded, obviously sensing Tang San's current soul power level.
"Brother Hao..."
Tang Xiao didn't know Tang San, but only heard his sister Tang Yuehua mention it.
However, he knew Tang Hao. Seeing that his brother was now older than him, Tang Xiao's eyes turned red with distress.
"Brother!"
The two brothers haven't seen each other for more than 20 years, how could they not miss each other?
"Tang! Hao!..."
The five elders on the side had complicated expressions on their faces. They hated this man very much, but they dared not speak out in anger.
Reason told them that the reason why Haotian Sect made concessions back then was because they were too cowardly.
However, there are many things in the world that make it impossible to remain rational.
There are three major sworn enemies in life - the hatred of killing one's father, the hatred of taking away one's wife, and the pain of killing one's son.
In the final analysis, what happened to Tang Hao was that Qian Xunji wanted to take Ah Yin away.
No one would be able to bear this hatred.
However, because of this incident, Haotian Sect and Wuhun Palace had a conflict.
During the conflict, the seventh elder's son was killed by people from Wuhun Palace. This was the pain of son-ricide.
They have watched the children of several elders grow up together.
Relatively speaking, Ah Yin, Tang Hao's wife, is of course just an outsider.
In their view, Tang Hao caused a conflict between Haotian Sect and Wuhun Palace because of A Yin, an "outsider". Then they saw the child they grew up around die, and naturally they were unable to look at the problem rationally.
Indeed, as Tang Chen said, the reason for such a result was their incompetence.
They were not strong enough, so they failed to protect their families.
But will they admit it?
Human nature is like that.
Therefore, even though they were very resentful, they had only one choice, which was to rely on Tang Chen's remaining power and stay in a corner.
They also want to seek revenge from Wuhun Palace, but they are not capable enough.
Therefore, I can only find "soft" people to vent my anger.
This soft person is Tang Hao, who is filled with guilt for the Haotian Sect.
The Haotian Sect continues to this day. The sect leader Tang Xiao is a second-generation disciple, and Tang San is his son, so he is a third-generation disciple.
The previous sect leader, Tang Hao, Tang Xiao's father, was a disciple of the first generation.
In the same period as him are the five elders headed by the second elder.
Of course, this is because Tang Chen has disappeared for many years, so his existence is not included in the sect hierarchy.
If we really want to count, the current second elder is Tang Chen's nephew.
As for the great elder, in fact, it was the position that his father occupied after Tang Xiao succeeded to the sect leader.
"Tang San paid a visit to his great-grandfather, uncle, and elders."
He was not a kowtower, bowing down was already a great courtesy. Tang Chen didn't like his descendants to kowtow all the time.
The other elders are different.
"Don't you have any education at all?
You, a third-generation disciple, don’t kneel down to pay respect when you see us?
Yuehua, how did you teach me?"
Of course they knew that Tang San had studied at Yuexuan for a period of time.
"snort."
The three of them, grandfather and grandson, had a nice meeting, but someone ruined the atmosphere. How could Tang Chen have such a good temper?
"Forehead……"
Hearing the voice beside him, he remembered Tang Chen's existence.
Now, it is no longer the time for Tang Chen to return and Tang Xiao to be the sect leader, so they can rely on their old age and act like they are old.
They are Tang Xiao's uncles, but Tang Chen is their uncle.
"grandfather……"
"Well, I know, since you are here, then bring me the genealogy.
Such an outstanding child as Tang San has suffered all these years, of course I will not let you continue to live outside!"
Back then, after Tang Hao had a conflict with Wuhun Palace, he was expelled from the Haotian Sect.
Therefore, Tang San's name was later not registered in the genealogy.
"Uncle, this is absolutely not allowed."
At this time, after the second elder signaled, the third elder suddenly expressed his intention to Tang Chen.
Those who appeared in the meeting hall today were two, three, four, five, and seven, a total of five elders.
In fact, the Dual Douluo sect that the Haotian Sect announced at the beginning was not Tang Hao and Tang Xiao.
Instead, their father and Tang Xiao.
Later, their father died of illness, and Tang Hao broke through to become a Titled Douluo, thus filling his father's vacancy.
The fact is that the second and third elders had already reached level 90 in cultivation at that time.
However, they did not publicize it.
In addition, the sixth elder who reached level 90 together was the younger brother of the fourth elder.
After the conflict between Haotian Sect and Wuhun Palace, this news was leaked.
The next result is easy to guess. Wuhun Palace sent a ninety-five-level titled Douluo to seriously injure the three of them.
The second and third elders suffered injuries that had been nursing for more than ten years, and the sixth elder died tragically on the spot.
Therefore, in addition to the seventh elder who lost his son, there was also the fourth elder who lost his brother who was equally angry with Tang Hao.
Two of the five remaining elders hated them.
Tang Chen directly asked them to recognize their ancestors and return to their clan. This was difficult to convince the public.
"sorry.
Although, I don't think there is anything wrong with protecting your wife and children.
As a husband, I cannot just watch my wife being snatched away by others while doing nothing.
As a father, I cannot let my children lose their mother at an early age.
Although, in the end, I still couldn't keep Ah Yin.
But what can I do?
After a bloody battle with three titled Douluo, seriously injuring two and killing one, I have established the Haotian Sect's reputation, and I am worthy of it."
Yes, Tang Hao just wanted to protect his wife and children.
What's wrong?
"Okay, okay, okay!"
After saying yes three times in a row, the fourth elder explained what he meant:
"It's okay for you to recognize your ancestors and return to your clan.
However, as the elder of the sect, I always have the power to control things, right?
Your name is Tang San, right? My request is very simple, that is—
Wait, you choose one of these people present to be your teammate, provided that that person is willing to fight side by side with you.
Of course, among the people you choose, your father Tang Hao, the sect leader and ancestors cannot be included.
As for your opponents, they are me and the Seventh Elder.
We won’t bully you either, we will only use 40% of our soul power.”
After hearing the fourth elder's words, Tang Chen secretly laughed.
Over the years, they have really become more and more alive. To deal with a child, it actually requires two titled Douluo to attack at the same time.
Most of the three generations of disciples present were over thirty years old, and the most powerful among them was only the same as Tang San, over sixty.
Two people in their sixties and above, teaming up to fight two titled Douluo with 40% soul power?
If you win, you will be in trouble.
If they lose, will they still be shameless?
What's more, who would be willing to be Tang San's teammate?
However, Tang Chen thought about it carefully.
"Present", Tang San was not helpless in dealing with his request.
After all, that little girl is here too.
He told those present, but he didn't say that only the disciples of the Haotian Sect could challenge them.
Upon hearing his request, Tang Yuehua looked angry. This was simply bullying.
First of all, Tang Hao's reputation in the sect is not good.
Tang San wanted to find his teammates among the disciples present, but it was as difficult as going to heaven.
Secondly, their opponents are Titled Douluo, or two.
Even a titled Douluo who only uses 40% of his soul power cannot be defeated by ordinary people.
It is even said that most people don’t even have the thought of taking action.
Even if someone agrees to be Tang San's teammate, so what?
During the years when the mountain gate was closed, several elders practiced together and had a very tacit understanding with each other.
These Haotian Sect disciples present were very unfamiliar with Tang San, so there was no way they could cooperate with each other.
This is simply a competition with no chance of winning.
"Little girl, why don't you come out yet?"
What?
After hearing Tang Chen's words, everyone present was stunned.
The higher the level of soul power a soul master has, the more he believes in his perception of soul power and relies on it even more than his own eyes.
Could it be that there is a person who has been hiding in the dark, but they are not aware of the other's existence at all?
Thinking of this, they couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
