Douluo Continent: Become stronger by stealing Tang San's luck

At this moment, Honglian no longer possessed the charm and allure she had at first sight; instead, she had an unusually calm expression.

She and her younger brother bowed deeply to Tang Lan and the others.

Seeing that everyone was silent and only looking at her, Tang Ya had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "No, this is what we should do. As the saying goes, when you see injustice on the road, you should draw your sword to help. This is also the principle of our Tang Clan!"

As Tang Ya said these words, she suddenly had a strange feeling, remembering that Tang Lan had said the same thing not long ago.

"Tang Sect."

"Please forgive my siblings and me for our limited knowledge; we do not know where the Tang Clan is. We beg our benefactor to enlighten us!"

Honglian and her younger brother Yuan Yan exchanged a glance, both seeing the confusion in each other's eyes, and then spoke up. (End of this chapter)

Chapter 938 Loyalty to the Cloud-Top Abode

"It's normal that you don't know, after all, the Tang Clan is no longer the Tang Clan it used to be."

"The Tang Clan had already declined to the point of being unknown hundreds of years ago."

Tang Ya smiled wryly upon hearing this, but she did not express any dissatisfaction with the two of them. Instead, she patiently explained.

However, Honglian and her brother did not believe Tang Lan's words at all.

Then Honglian spoke up: "With just you, you are enough to surpass the overall strength of our Cloud Residence."

"Yun Shang Ya Ju has already been able to recruit Soul Masters in several major cities, and now it has more than 400 Soul Masters at the Soul Venerable level or above."

"It's just that we have as many as seven branches in Yunshang Yaju, located in different cities, and our strength is relatively dispersed, which is why these people have an opportunity to take advantage of us."

"In the end, because we don't have any Title Douluos, our Cloud Residence has become a target that many forces see as easy to bully and plunder."

As she finished speaking, Honglian sighed softly.

He wasn't particularly angry; he couldn't blame anyone else for his own lack of ability.

Honglian's younger brother, who was standing to the side, also fell silent. Despite his diligent cultivation day and night, he was still stuck at level 89 and could not make any progress.

Without breaking through the level 90 barrier, no matter how powerful one is, one will never reach the level of a Title Douluo.

This made him feel somewhat lost and dejected, but he himself did not realize that he had already surpassed almost all of his peers.

"I would like to ask, who is the leader of your Tang Sect?"

Honglian seemed to have thought of something, and then looked up at Tang Ya and Tang Lan.

She could naturally see that the two of them were the backbone of the group.

"Ah, actually, I am the sect leader of the Tang Clan, and Tang Lan is the deputy sect leader of the Tang Clan."

"To be honest, the Tang Clan only has about a dozen of us now."

"Besides the ten of us, there are a few others who are not here for the time being."

In Tang Ya's view, a dozen or so people could hardly be considered a sect, and saying it out loud would only invite contempt.

However, Honglian's eyes lit up, and before her younger brother could express his opinion, she directly asked, "I wonder if your Tang Sect is still accepting disciples?"

"Sure, but we need to take things slowly, since we're all still students."

Tang Ya nodded with her big eyes.

She was still feeling dizzy and lightheaded. If Tang Lan hadn't given her a pill earlier, Tang Ya might still be unconscious.

"So, if I'm willing to bring Cloud Residence to the Tang Sect, will you agree to our joining?"

"The strongest people in Cloud Residence are my brother and me. The other three Soul Douluos have only recently broken through. They chose to join Cloud Residence to repay our life-saving kindness."

“If they don’t want to, I can let them leave.”

Honglian expressed her thoughts with a hint of eagerness.

Her gaze finally settled on Tang Lan, because Tang Ya was also looking at Tang Lan at that moment.

Tang Lan's strength is beyond doubt. His ability to kill a Title Douluo is enough to place him in an extremely high position where he is supported by everyone.

Now only he can decide whether to agree to Yunshang Yaju joining.

"The Tang Clan's principle is very simple: joining the Tang Clan will not affect your freedom in any way. Therefore, the Cloud Residence will still exist and will not change much."

"Furthermore, no matter who it is, anyone who wants to join the Tang Sect must start as an outer disciple. Even you two siblings can only become outer elders."

"As for how to enter the inner sect, the first requirement is time, the second is to have made great contributions, and the third is to have outstanding talent and swear never to betray the Tang Sect."

Tang Clan's voice was very serious and solemn. Yunshang Yaju's strength was enough to be considered a medium-sized sect.

With the addition of Yunshang Yaju, the overall strength of Tang Sect will certainly be enhanced, but the quality of its Soul Masters is uneven.

If this is not taken seriously, it may cause trouble for the Tang Clan in the future.

"Alright, we agree to your request. From this day forward, my brother and I declare that we have joined the Tang Clan. If we betray them, may we be punished by heaven and earth, and may our souls be destroyed and never be reincarnated."

Honglian and her younger brother Yuan Yan exchanged a glance, then spoke together to swear an oath.

Honglian knew that after tonight, the Mad Lion Sect, the Purple Bamboo Pavilion, and the Wind and Moon Pavilion would definitely not let Yunshang Elegant Residence go.

Even if all the Soul Masters of Yunshang Yaju were gathered together, they would still be unable to contend with the three forces that were in no way weaker than Yunshang Yaju.

Without the help of the Tang Clan, even if the crisis were averted tonight, Yunshang Yaju would not have been able to withstand the siege of the three forces in a few days.

It seems that joining the Tang Clan is now their only option.

They could see through Tang Lan, just as they could not.

Rather than letting them defect to other forces or be swallowed up by the three forces, it is better to take over Yunshang Yaju.

The Tang Clan is currently short of manpower, and the addition of Yunshang Yaju will undoubtedly greatly increase the Tang Clan's strength.

However, the price to pay is that they need to help Yunshang Yaju deal with those three forces.

Since the other side has deployed a Title Douluo this time, then all three sides must also have Title Douluos in charge.

Tang Lan didn't care too much about this. The Tang Clan only had a few people left, so even if these guys wanted to cause trouble for the Tang Clan, they wouldn't be able to find anyone.

If we really find them here, we can just kill them.

Tang Lan nodded and said, "Alright, since you have made your decision, then on behalf of the Tang Sect, I agree to your joining."

"However, you should still distribute these Tang Clan disciple codes of conduct to your subordinates so they can read them."

“If someone makes a mistake in the future, I think you will be able to handle it well without our intervention.”

As Tang Lan spoke, a book appeared in her hand, which she then tossed to Hong Lian.

After only a few glances, Honglian quickly agreed.

She found that the rules were very simple, the requirements were not high, and there was no need to pay too much attention to them.

Because anyone who violates the rules is a heinous criminal, and even if Tang Lan doesn't intervene, she will personally clean up the mess.

"From this day forward, I, Yunshang Yaju, declare my allegiance to the Tang Sect. If I betray them, Heaven and Earth will not tolerate it, and my body and soul will be shattered!"

Honglian, supporting her weak body, walked to the highest point of the Cloud Residence, and then, focusing on her soul power, announced.

This statement immediately spread for miles around.

Countless people heard Honglian's words at that moment, and they were all thinking, wondering, and curious about which faction the Tang Clan belonged to.

Why have they never heard of it?

Tang Lan and the others, who originally planned to leave the next day, changed their original plans because of the oath of allegiance taken by Yunshang Yaju.

He then discussed the next steps with Honglian and Yuan Yan.

In the spacious conference room, a large square table stood in the center. (End of Chapter)

Chapter 939 Tang Lan's Decision

Tang Ya sat in the first seat, and Tang Lan sat next to her.

Besides the members of the Tang Clan, several high-ranking members of Yunshang Yaju were also seated on both sides.

They are also among the few Soul Saint level experts.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Honglian spoke up: "According to the intelligence gathered by our people, the Mad Lion Sect has two Title Douluos, one of whom has already been killed by the Vice Sect Master."

"On the other side is Chang Tianba, the sect leader of the Mad Lion Sect. He is an extremely domineering person and a level 94 titled Douluo."

"In addition, the Mad Lion Sect has about nine Soul Douluos, making it the strongest of the three forces."

The number of Soul Saints has reached thirty-one.

Over the next half hour, Honglian gave a general report on the overall strength of the Mad Lion Sect, the Purple Bamboo Pavilion, and the Wind and Moon Pavilion, including the number of Soul Masters above the Soul Saint level.

Together, the three groups have a total of three Title Douluos, twenty-one Soul Douluos, and as many as eighty Soul Saints.

In contrast, the Tang Clan's side is slightly short-handed.

Tang Lan is the only one capable of confronting a Title Douluo.

Apart from the four newly joined members of the Red Lotus faction, who are Soul Masters at the Contra Douluo level, there isn't a single one from the original Tang Sect faction.

There are two members of the Soul Saint Original Tang Sect: Fang Zi and Vina.

Vina is unable to act easily for the time being due to her own reasons, so she can be completely excluded from the list.

After careful consideration, apart from Tang Lan being the key figure who can turn the tide of battle, all other Soul Masters of lower ranks are at a disadvantage.

However, Tang Lan felt that as long as Tang Ya and Huo Yuhao and the others gathered together, they would be able to exert several times their strength.

This is the strength of the group of genius students in Shrek Academy, without a doubt.

"At present, if we confront the three forces head-on, we will inevitably fall into a weak position and be defeated."

"My deal is to temporarily shrink my sphere of influence to seek development, and then find an opportunity to take revenge on them when I have accumulated enough strength."

"For now, let's protect Feiyan City and the nearest two branches, Tianjiao City and Guyan City."

"As for the other four branches, we can only leave them to them for the time being. This is the best way I can think of to preserve our strength so far."

At this moment, Honglian, as an outer elder of the Tang Clan, made what she considered to be the most rational judgment.

She didn't let past grudges and anger get into her plans; she was a truly intelligent person who thought rationally.

"But sister, those are resources and influence that we've spent nearly ten years acquiring. Would you be willing to give them up like this?"
