Chapter 88 When the Wall Falls, Everyone Pushes It Down
. In the arena.
Seeing that Qian Daoliu had already made his move, Gu Rong couldn't continue attacking Tang Xu and the other two.
After a light snort, Gu Rong withdrew his hand and flew towards the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's group.
Seeing Gu Rong leave, Tang Xiao finally relaxed a little.
He took out some medicine from his storage soul tool, swallowed it haphazardly, and then hurriedly went to check on Tang Xu and Tang Hao's injuries.
At this moment, Tang Xu and Tang Hao had several more penetrating wounds.
Although these wounds weren't fatal, Tang Xu's aura was steadily weakening.
Tang Xiao knew in his heart that his father might not survive today…
Without time to grieve, Tang Xiao looked at Tang Hao beside him.
Tang Hao's condition was even more miserable.
Both his arms were severed, and blood was gushing uncontrollably from his wounds.
Seeing this, Tang Xiao sighed inwardly. He knew his younger brother was crippled.
Tang Hao would most likely never be able to wield the Clear Sky Hammer again.
At this moment, Tang Xiao was lost in confusion.
His father was about to pass away, and his younger brother, on whom his father had placed great hopes, was crippled.
Tang Xiao didn't know what the future held for their Haotian Sect…
Just as Tang Xiao was lost in thought, all the sect leaders who were preparing to participate in the sect ranking battle, including Yu Yuanzhen, gathered around.
When Yu Yuanzhen saw the unconscious Tang Hao, a hint of disgust appeared in his eyes.
As Tang Xu's old rival, he understood Tang Xu's thoughts very well.
Judging from the scene at the time, Tang Xu had clearly wanted to admit defeat after being injured by Chen Jianjun.
However, because of Tang Hao's sneak attack
, Chen Jianjun was enraged, and in order to protect Tang Hao, Tang Xu had no choice but to fight to the death.
Ignoring his physical condition, he forcibly activated the Exploding Ring Secret Technique to take Chen Jianjun's sword head-on…
It could be said that the current situation of the Haotian Sect was all caused by Tang Hao.
Thinking of this, Yu Yuanzhen sighed in his heart.
'I used to envy Tang Xu for having two good sons.
But now it seems that Tang Hao is not even as good as me.' "
My son, Yu Xiaogang, is a good-for-nothing.
He'll never break through level 29 in soul power, and he's a joke when it comes to martial soul theory.
But Xiaogang won't cause any real trouble.
I don't need to worry about the sect being dragged down by him..."
While pondering this, Yu Yuanzhen glanced to the side.
Noticing the looks in the eyes of Hu Yanzhen and several other sect leaders, Yu Yuanzhen knew in his heart that
the Haotian Sect was finished.
Although he disdained to attack Tang Xiao, the other sects wouldn't have such thoughts.
With only an injured Tang Xiao, the Haotian Sect couldn't hold onto its position among the top three sects.
In fact, if all the sect leaders of the smaller sects joined forces to take on Tang Xiao in a series of attacks,
the Haotian Sect might very well be kicked out of the ranks of the seven major sects.
Just as Yu Yuanzhen was thinking, the sect leader of the Sparrow Bee Sect quietly pulled Hu Yanzhen of the Elephant Armor Sect, along with several other sect leaders, aside for a private talk...
Seeing this, Yu Yuanzhen shook his head.
Out of sympathy for Tang Xu, he reminded Tang Xiao...
"Tang Xiao, this time, your Clear Sky Sect should withdraw from the competition among the seven major sects."
Hearing this, Tang Xiao asked with some confusion.
"Your Majesty Thunder, what do you mean by this?"
Tang Xiao had recovered somewhat by now, and although his speech was still a little slurred, simple communication was no longer a problem.
Yu Yuanzhen did not directly answer Tang Xiao's question; he simply pointed to a group of Soul Douluos gathered together in the distance, discussing something.
Tang Xiao looked in the direction Yu Yuanzhen was pointing.
When he noticed Hu Yanzhen and the others in the distance, Tang Xiao froze.
"It's over..."
After muttering to himself, Tang Xiao even found it difficult to hold the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand.
A moment later, Hu Yanzhen, along with several other Soul Douluo-level sect leaders, walked over.
"Tang Xiao, my Elephant Armor Sect challenges your Clear Sky Sect." "Tang Xiao, my Wind Sword Sect challenges your Clear Sky Sect..."
Facing the several Soul Douluos eyeing him menacingly, Tang Xiao's eyes gradually reddened.
Just as he was preparing to defend the honor of the Clear Sky Sect to the death, a weak voice sounded behind him.
"Ah Xiao, come here..."
Hearing the voice, Tang Xiao quickly looked behind him.
At this moment, Tang Xu had woken up from his coma and was struggling to sit up from the ground.
The imposing presence of a level 95 Title Douluo was long gone; Tang Xu now looked more like a frail old man.
"Father!"
Tang Xiao exclaimed and rushed over, carefully helping Tang Xu to his feet.
Seeing this, Hu Yanzhen and the others remained silent.
After exchanging glances, they retreated, giving Tang Xu and his father space to talk...
Seeing this, Tang Xu nodded to Hu Yanzhen and the others in return.
Tang Xu reached out and pulled Tang Xiao along.
"Ah Xiao, listen to His Majesty Lei Ting's advice.
Our Haotian Sect will withdraw from this sect competition and will be closed off for 20 years, starting from this moment."
As he spoke, tears welled up in Tang Xu's eyes.
For someone who valued sect honor more than his own life, making this decision was extremely painful for Tang Xu.
Tang Xu sighed and continued,
"Ah Xiao, I only now realize that Ah Hao was too impulsive. He is not a qualified successor to the sect.
I really don't feel comfortable entrusting the sect to him...
cough cough..."
As he spoke, Tang Xu coughed up two mouthfuls of blood.
Before Tang Xiao could react, Tang Xu continued to instruct him,
"Ah Xiao, from today onwards, you are the new sect leader of our Haotian Sect.
The future of the Haotian Sect depends on you."
"I..."
Tang Xiao's voice choked for a moment.
He knew that his father had reached the end of his life, and this was just a final burst of energy before death.
Tang Xu reached out and wiped away Tang Xiao's tears before continuing his instructions.
"Ah Xiao, I still have a piece of inherited soul bone.
After I'm gone, you can absorb it."
Tang Xu then looked at Tang Hao beside him.
"Ah Xiao, when we get back, try to find a healing-type soul master to help your brother heal his arm.
If Ah Hao's arm can't be reattached, you can absorb the two soul bones in his arms too.
Cough cough..."
After coughing up another mouthful of blood, Tang Xiao's breath had reached its lowest point.
He looked at Tang Xiao, who was now weeping uncontrollably, and said,
"Ah Xiao, don't cry.
You're the eldest brother, you have to shoulder the responsibility.
Don't blame your brother, you have to take good care of him and Yuehua..."
With that, Tang Xu's arm fell limp, and his life ended.
"Father!"
Tang Xu cried out in anguish, unable to control his emotions any longer...
Meanwhile, in the Spirit Hall's ranks,
Qin Ming shook his head and turned to walk towards Qian Xunji.
Now that everything was settled, there was no need for him to stay any longer.
Arriving before Qian Xunji, Qin Ming said solemnly.
"Your Holiness, I wish to venture out and gain some experience..."
The first volume has ended; the next volume will be about immortal herbs.
