Chapter 97. Tang Xiao: Spirit Hall is also worthy of anger?
In Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji sat on the Pope's chair, looking down at the Haotian Sect envoy, who stood with his head held high, his chest puffed out, his head almost reaching the sky.
"Why don't you kneel when you see me?" Qian Xunji asked.
The Haotian Sect envoy said, "Your Holiness, kneeling before the Pope is just Spirit Hall etiquette. You are in Spirit Hall, but there is no order requiring you to kneel when you see the Pope in Spirit City."
Qian Xunji smiled and said, "Yes, it's not necessary. But what if I want you to kneel?"
The Haotian Sect envoy continued, "Your Holiness, I come with the purpose of friendship with the Haotian Sect, but we, the Haotian Sect, have our own Haotian Sect integrity. We kneel only to heaven and earth, only to our parents, only to our sect, not to others. Not even the Pope of Spirit Hall can force us to kneel!"
The next moment, a suffocating soul force directly suppressed the Haotian Sect envoy.
Yue Guan and Gui Mei attacked directly, forcing the Haotian Sect envoy to his knees, his knees slamming against the marble slab so hard it cracked and blood streamed down from his knees.
"The Haotian Sect truly possesses great integrity, but I must also tell you that in this world, those with the biggest fists speak louder than words. If you don't have fists, hold your tongue. Not only do I demand that you, the Haotian Sect envoy, kneel before me, but I also demand that you kowtow to me," Qian Xunji declared.
"You." The Haotian Sect envoy, furious, was about to curse when a surge of soul power pushed his head downward, slamming it hard against the marble slab.
Another surge of soul power forced him to raise his head, leaving his forehead bloodied and mangled. The next moment, another surge of soul power pushed him down.
After kowtowed several times, Qian Xunji waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can get up."
The envoy stood up with a sense of relief. With resentment in his heart, he said sarcastically, "Tang Hao has had nothing to do with our Haotian Sect for a long time, but because of Tang Hao's affairs, you dare not cause trouble for Tang Hao, but only dare to vent your anger on an envoy like me. Is this your magnanimity, Your Holiness the Pope? I am really disappointed."
Qian Xunji said, "Those who are magnanimous and can tolerate others are called cowards by you. So, I only have this little magnanimity, so what's wrong with that? Tell me, what is the purpose of your coming here?"
The envoy took An invitation was presented, stating, "The Haotian Sect has sent an invitation, Your Holiness the Pope, to attend our Haotian Sect's 200th anniversary celebration."
Qian Xunji took the invitation directly with his spirit power, glanced at it, and said, "I will be there. You can leave now."
The messenger limped away from the Spirit Hall, gazing at Spirit City with resentment. Once they were far away, he finally roared, "Anyone who insults our Haotian Sect will be killed without mercy. Spirit Hall, just wait. When old Sect Master Tang Chen returns, he will definitely punish you."
Haotian Sect
Master Tang Tian, observing the returning messengers, then approached the Spirit Hall messenger, his knees bleeding and his forehead bloodied.
"What's wrong with you? Are you being bullied by the Spirit Hall?" Tang Tian asked.
The messenger cried, "Master, you must help me. That damned Qian Xunji actually demanded I kneel before him in the Spirit Hall. When I refused, he used his spirit power to force me to do so and even kowtow to him."
"I'm weak, and they forced me to kneel and kowtow. This has humiliated the dignity of the Haotian Sect. Master, please punish me."
Upon hearing this, Tang Tian clenched his fists.
Tang Xiao was even more furious: "The Spirit Hall is going too far."
Tang Xuan said, "The Spirit Hall is furious after Tang Hao's chaos. Qianxunji doesn't dare to trouble Tang Hao, nor can he trouble our Haotian Sect, so he can only use our envoys to get his way."
"Get his way?" Tang Xiao's eyes were filled with anger. "Why does he get his way? We Haotian Sect still have many accounts to settle with Qianxunji. How can the Spirit Hall be so angry?"
He summoned the Clear Sky Hammer and rushed out, but was stopped by Tang Xuan.
"What are you trying to do, Tang Xiao?" Tang Xuan asked.
"Of course I'm going to attack Spirit City and force Qianxunji to give us justice."
Tang Tian said with a look of disappointment, "Xiao'er, you're a level 94 Titled Douluo, what can you do?"
"When Haodi first became a Titled Douluo, he could fight three at a time, so frightened that Qianxunji didn't dare to move for six years. How could I be afraid of that coward Qianxunji?" Tang Xiao said.
Tang Tian said, "If you meet Qian Xunji outside, you can fight him however you want, but do you know what Spirit City is? It's the headquarters of the Spirit Hall. Almost all of the Spirit Hall's Titled Douluo are there, including Qian Daoliu, who was known as the Sky Invincible in my father's time."
"Although Qian Daoliu was no match for my father, he's not someone you can deal with now either."
"You are a level 94 Titled Douluo, and you are going to die. The martial arts world is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and worldly affairs~"
Tang Tian said with a sigh, "You are still so reckless. How can I hand over the Haotian Sect to you in the future?"
Tang Xiao lowered his head and said, "Father, I'm sorry. I know I was wrong, but are we going to let the Spirit Hall bully us?"
Tang Tian waved his hand and said, "What we in the Haotian Sect have to do now is to forbear. When Baba left, he said he wanted to become a god. If he becomes a god in the future, even if the Spirit Hall is powerful, won't it be at the mercy of our Haotian Sect?"
Tang Xiao nodded. When Tang Chen was mentioned, Tang Xiao was immediately proud. He had regarded Tang Chen as his idol in his heart for a long time. He wished he could be like Tang Chen and beat the coward Qian Daoliu to a pulp.
Tang Chen was the faith of every Haotianzong disciple. Back then, when Qian Daoliu attacked the Haotianzong, Tang Chen defeated him. Tang Chen, however, single-handedly elevated the Haotianzong to the preeminent position in the world, rivaling the Spirit Hall. He also forged the unique art of the Clear Sky Hammer. This elevated the Clear Sky Hammer from a commonplace, top-tier spirit to rivaling divine-level spirits like the Angel Spirit and the Sea God Spirit.
Therefore, Tang Xiao, along with Tang Hao, all subsequent Haotianzong disciples, idolized and believed in him.
Tang Hao took this to the extreme, inheriting Tang Chen's title of Clear Sky Douluo. While he failed to defeat Qian Daoliu, he did defeat Pope Qian Xunji, once again cementing the prestige of the Clear Sky Douluo.
Tang Xiao raised his head, looked at the sky, and said, "Grandpa, Grandpa, where are you? I really hope you can come back soon. Don't you know how much our Haotian Sect has been oppressed by the Spirit Hall without you?"
"I only regret that I am not strong enough now. Otherwise, Qian Xunji, that coward, would not be worthy of being angry. No matter how much anger he has in his heart, he must shut up." Tang Xiao said, looking at the Haotian Hammer in his hand.
