Douluo: Did you move Danta here?

Chapter 363 Decides to Join Forces with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School

Several elders only learned of Tang Yuehua's return to the sect with a young man after receiving news from Tang Xian. They rushed to Tang Xiao's residence and overheard snippets of information about Tang San's identity. Holding grudges against Tang Hao, they immediately pushed open the door and objected to Tang San learning the Haotian Technique.

Now that they've heard the news Tang Yuehua brought back, they no longer care about Tang San's little troubles.

"Can we confirm that it was the Spirit Hall who did it?"

While the elders were still in shock, the leader, an elderly man with white hair, raised a question with a solemn expression.

Tang Xiao understood what the other party was thinking and revealed all his speculations.

"Although no one witnessed the Spirit Hall's actions firsthand, who else on the entire continent, besides the Spirit Hall, could silently wipe the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan and the Power Clan from the world overnight?"

After a moment of contemplation, the hot-tempered Seventh Elder, Tang Lie, turned to look at the white-haired old man again.

"Second brother, it seems that the Spirit Hall's target is very likely all the sects on the continent, and our Clear Sky Sect will also be their target. Why don't we fight the Spirit Hall to the death?"

“That’s right. Regardless of whether the Spirit Hall will target the Clear Sky Sect, we must be prepared. We cannot entrust the lives of the entire sect to the Spirit Hall’s mercy.”

"But it's impossible to go directly to the Spirit Hall and fight to the death. Put away your little schemes."

The Second Elder clearly agreed with Tang Lie's guess that the Spirit Hall would take action against the Clear Sky Sect, but it was impossible for him to lead the sect's disciples to confront the Spirit Hall directly. The Seventh Elder's eldest son died in a battle with the Spirit Hall decades ago, and he understood the other party's desire for revenge at all times. He glared at Tang Lie fiercely, causing him to retreat to the side with a forced smile.

"Sect Master, we must take action; we cannot sit idly by and wait for our demise."

"But we're currently confined to this corner of the world. Besides strengthening the sect's defenses, what else can we do?"

Tang Xiao had obviously considered this issue as well, but their options were limited. After all, the entire continent had almost forgotten about them. If the Clear Sky Sect were to be destroyed by the Spirit Hall one day, most independent cultivators would likely wonder which sect the Clear Sky Sect was.
Upon hearing this, the Second Elder did not agree with Tang Xiao's statement.

"Sect Master, the Upper Three Sects are not limited to Haotian Sect and Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect."

The Second Elder's words made everyone present's eyes light up, including Tang Xiao's, but his expression quickly fell back down.

"We know the Spirit Hall's ambitions, do you think the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School doesn't understand? They must be busy strengthening their own sect's defenses, how could they possibly come to the aid of the Clear Sky Sect?"

“It is obviously unrealistic to directly ask Ning Fengzhi to send people to assist in defending the Haotian Sect, but we can make an agreement with them that if either side is attacked by the Spirit Hall, the other side must provide full support. I think that even if the Spirit Hall is powerful, it is impossible for it to attack both the Haotian Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School at the same time.”

The Second Elder explained his considerations in detail, which won nods of approval from everyone present, except for Tang San and his niece. Tang San's reason was that he had had many unpleasant experiences with Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu, while Tang Yuehua's reason was simply that she had not yet had the chance to reveal that the other three single-attribute sects had submitted to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Tang Xiao noticed his sister's hesitation and asked her:
"Yuehua, just say what you want to say. Maybe it's useful information?"

Tang Xiao's words also drew the attention of several elders to Tang Yuehua. They still held a good impression of this former sect leader's daughter who had been helping the Haotian Sect, and did not involve her in their resentment towards Tang Hao.

"Alas, elders, you may not know this, but after the Power Clan was wiped out, the other three clans were all in danger and quickly contacted Ning Fengzhi to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. They have now moved their clan lands to the vicinity of Seven Treasure City."

"This"

"This is outrageous! Everyone says that the three upper sects are of one mind and one spirit. How could Ning Fengzhi take advantage of our misfortune? What right does he have to accept our Haotian Sect's former subordinate sect?" Tang Lie pounded the table in front of him, very dissatisfied with the defection of the three single-attribute sects. Have these guys forgotten the care that Haotian Sect once provided?
"Hey, Seventh Brother, don't say things like that anymore. We were the ones who wronged those three families first. It's understandable that they would make this choice, after all, the lives of thousands of clansmen are at stake."

The Second Elder sighed deeply, a sense of loss welling up within him as if he had been abandoned and his gaze turned back to Tang Xiao.

"Sect Master, you can use the excuse of the three major families to arrange a meeting with Ning Fengzhi, and say that we will not hold the matter of the three families against each other, so as to promote this alliance."

Upon hearing this, Tang Lie was indignant, but he had no better option than to sit silently to the side, which was tantamount to tacitly supporting the Second Elder's decision.

Tang Xiao nodded. The Haotian Sect is currently isolated and helpless, and it does need a reliable ally. The names of Jian and Gu are still very reassuring.

"I understand. I will immediately send someone to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to meet with Ning Fengzhi and explain my intentions."

Having decided to form an alliance with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Tang Xiao once again turned the topic to his nephew.

"Elders, as you know, the situation is perilous. I hope you can temporarily set aside your hatred for Brother Hao and accept Xiao San."

"You may not know this, but Xiao San is a genius with twin martial souls and innate full soul power. If he can grow up smoothly, he will definitely become a top force for our Haotian Sect to fight against the Spirit Hall."

During the conversation just now, Tang Xiao learned about Tang San's extraordinary talent, but he did not reveal that he had been framed and his martial soul was half-crippled. For now, it would be better to let the elders covet Tang San's talent and accept him.

At this point, Tang Sangu looked at the elders who could decide her fate with a mixture of trepidation and anticipation in her eyes.

The elders also looked at Tang San with horrified eyes.

"Is the Sect Master telling the truth?"

"How could I joke about this? Xiao San's other martial soul is the Blue Silver Grass that he inherited from his mother."

"Blue Silver Grass?"

"Isn't this a useless martial spirit?"

Upon hearing that the others were belittling their nephew's martial spirit, Tang Yuehua and her siblings immediately stood up for him.

"Elders, Xiao San's mother is my sworn sister. I know her abilities better than anyone. She was able to cultivate to the Soul Emperor realm in her early twenties. The martial soul she passed on to Xiao San must not be an ordinary Blue Silver Grass. Otherwise, how could it be twinned with the Clear Sky Hammer in the same person?"

"That's right, elders. Xiao San's talent is extremely strong. At only 16 years old, he already has a cultivation level far exceeding that of a Soul King. He just hasn't had time to absorb his fifth Soul Ring yet."

The two men's words silenced the elders once again, clearly indicating that their judgments were beginning to tilt. After a long while, the Second Elder finally spoke first.

"Very well, the situation is urgent now, so we should put aside our hatred and join hands to fight the enemy. We will no longer concern ourselves with the matter of Tang Hao's son, and leave it entirely to the sect leader. Tang San will also be under your care from now on."

"I will. Thank you for your understanding, elders. I will also send people to the mainland to search for news of Brother Hao. He can clear his name through a battle with the Spirit Hall. I think the elders will have no objection."
