Chapter 361: Tang Xiao
The shameless appearance of the two made the slightly bashful little kitten unable to bear it, and every time this happened, she would lie down on the distant beach and pretend to be dead, waiting for Xiaobai to leave before getting up.
Thus, during the day, the group would feign weakness in front of the Magic Soul Great White Shark, and at night, they would continuously train on the shore, working on their coordination and merging the strengths of their soul skills, all while waiting for the day of the trial to arrive.
In the outskirts of Seven Treasure City, several construction sites were bustling with activity. The people of the Yu Clan were working hard, but each one of them wore a smile.
This was far better than when they had been unable to receive any orders for months in Longxing City. After finishing the construction of the three clans' territories, they still had a large number of orders to fulfill for Seven Treasure City. Most of these orders had been received thanks to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's support, including demolitions and renovations. Just by looking at the wealth of Seven Treasure City, they could already foresee a bright future.
Compared to the Yu Clan, who were working tirelessly just after joining the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Po Clan and the Min Clan seemed much more relaxed. Especially the Min Clan, led by Bai He, who had sent some members to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's guard team. However, since it wasn't a time of war, the Min Clan, which excelled in gathering intelligence, had little opportunity to contribute.
As for the Po Clan, the construction of their territory was not yet completed, and they hadn't even built the basic infrastructure for alchemy, so they couldn't proceed with their alchemical work. This left Yang Wudi feeling like an ant on a hot pot, frantically overseeing the construction of the territories for all three clans. After all, the sooner they started refining medicine for the sect, the sooner the Po Clan could accumulate merits to exchange for immortal herbs. While it was impossible to say they could cultivate a Title Douluo, surely it wouldn't be too much to cultivate a Soul Douluo with every immortal herb. What most didn't know was just how few Soul Douluos there were on the continent.
And now, with the Haotian Sect reclusive and the Blue Electric Tyrant Sect a thing of the past, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, after the allegiance of the three major single-attribute families, was already the most recognized sect on the continent. Everyone was watching for Spirit Hall's response, fully expecting a battle between the two.
What they didn't know was that the two forces, which were like fire and water, along with the Tiandou Empire, led by the little angel, were secretly preparing a devastating attack on Haotian Sect.
After a long journey, Tang San and his aunt finally entered the mountains where the Haotian Sect was located. Since they were in the north, the mountains here were covered with thick white snow.
Tang Yuehua, who had not returned for a long time, felt a bit nervous about returning home, but thinking of her nephew, who must have been even more anxious, she didn't show any hesitation.
When the carriage arrived near the sect, they could already see the towering buildings in the distance, visible over the mountains.
"Haotian Hammer, towering Haotian Sect! This is the place where your father was born and took great pride."
Listening to Tang Yuehua's words, Tang San nodded slightly, clenching his fists nervously. After all, the once-glorious Haotian Sect now reclused itself in this icy wasteland, all due to his father's actions. He didn't know what attitude the clan elders would take toward him.
"Little San, don't worry. Everything will be fine with your aunt and uncle here."
"Mm."
As the carriage continued toward the sect, a group of young people suddenly appeared, surrounding the carriage in the center, startling the coachman and catching the attention of Tang San and his aunt.
Tang San opened the curtain of the carriage and looked out. He noticed that all the people in the group had considerable soul power fluctuations, clearly a team of soul masters. Given that this area was under the influence of Haotian Sect, their identities were obvious.
The leader of the group, a young soul master, pointed at the coachman and asked with no courtesy:
"Who's inside? What's your purpose here at Haotian Sect?"
The coachman, intimidated by the group's imposing aura, didn't know how to respond. Fortunately, Tang Yuehua quickly jumped out of the carriage and revealed her identity.
"I am Tang Yuehua, the current sect master of Haotian Sect, Tang Xiao's sister!"
"Tang Yuehua?"
The leader paused for a moment, recognizing the name, and after a few moments of thought, he matched the face in his memory with the woman standing in front of him. He was surprised and asked, "Aunt? Is it Aunt Yuehua?"
Hearing this address, Tang Yuehua was taken aback, staring at the young man in front of her for a long time before she tentatively asked, "Tang Xian... Is it Tang Xian?"
"Yes, Aunt, it's me!"
Tang Yuehua had been away from the sect for so long that she had forgotten the appearance of many clan members. Tang Xian was the grandson of Elder Seven. Because her martial soul was of noble rank, children liked to follow her around, and Tang Xian had often trailed behind her when he was younger.
Seeing a familiar face, the members of the guard team relaxed their vigilance. When Tang Yuehua saw someone familiar, she smiled warmly.
"It's you! You've grown so much, I almost didn't recognize you."
"Haha, I almost didn't recognize you either, Aunt."
The young man scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed but no longer carrying the previous commanding attitude.
"By the way, Aunt, weren't you living in the Tiandou Empire? Why have you come back?"
After reminiscing, Tang Xian started wondering why Tang Yuehua had suddenly returned. Upon mentioning business, Tang Yuehua's expression became serious.
"I need to discuss something important with your uncle. Please take me to him."
"I see. Aunt, please get in the carriage and follow me."
Hearing that it was an important matter, Tang Xian didn't ask further, signaling his fellow clan members to lead the way. The carriage headed toward the sect.
A few people were sent ahead to notify the sect master, and by the time the carriage reached the gates of Haotian Sect, Tang Xiao had been waiting for a while.
When Tang San stepped off the carriage, Tang Yuehua, with tears in her eyes, threw herself into the embrace of the middle-aged man in front of her.
"Big Brother!"
"Good, good, it's good to have you back. It's been over ten years since we last saw each other, hasn't it?"
Not wanting to interrupt the reunion between the siblings, Tang San began to look around, examining the true appearance of Haotian Sect. How should he put it? The sect's appearance didn't seem to match its title as the continent's number one sect. Only the large "Haotian Sect" inscription on the stone wall at the entrance carried a sense of grandeur.
This was understandable, considering the sect had been sealed off for decades. Haotian Sect had no financial source, and Tang Xiao, as the sect master, was dressed plainly. It seemed Haotian Sect had been struggling in recent years.
After a brief chat, Tang Yuehua turned the conversation toward Tang San and his father. Tang Xiao's gaze sharpened, and then his expression brightened as he looked at Tang San. At the same time, Tang Yuehua waved her hand, signaling Tang San to come over.
"Come here, Little San!"
Tang San took a deep breath and slowly approached. While Tang Xiao appraised him, he did the same to this unfamiliar uncle. From the raised temples and the calloused palms, it was clear that this man was a powerful soul master who had focused on strength.
"Greetings, Uncle Tang Xiao!"
Tang San bowed respectfully, feeling a bit nervous. He wasn't sure whether this uncle would hold his father's actions against him, as his aunt had said.
