In Douluo Continent, the Pope used me as a substitute for my first love.

Chapter 28 Haotian Sect Council Meeting

"Now that things have come to this, there's no use complaining. Instead of hoping for something unrealistic or fantasizing about the old sect leader displaying his divine power or divine soldiers descending from the sky... we should focus on thinking of some countermeasures."

The elder said so.

He was from Tang Chen's generation, with deep seniority and high prestige within the Haotian Sect. Even Tang Xiao, who had become the sect leader, was not as powerful as him.

As people get older, they gain a clearer understanding of the world. How could he not see through the thoughts of these "younger generation" he spends every day with?

Therefore, his sense of helplessness was even greater than that of the other elders.

The Haotian Sect has no successors...

Finally, Tang Hao appeared, and he turned out to be a real troublemaker!

This is absolutely terrible!

"Isn't this what we were thinking about all along? Sigh!"

The Third Elder sighed, his temper flaring.

"If there were a solution, we would have come up with it long ago."

To be honest, asking these roughnecks who only know how to use hammers to think is really asking for their lives.

It would be better to perish together with the Spirit Hall!

Just then.

"When the people from the Spirit Hall arrive, let's first announce that the sect's relationship with Tang Hao has been severed."

The Grand Elder suddenly spoke to Tang Xiao.

It means to expel him from the sect.

"this……"

Tang Xiao hesitated for a moment.

"This is for his own good."

The elder continued to persuade him.

"If a Title Douluo is determined to hide, even a Peerless Douluo will not be able to find him. If Tang Hao is all alone, not only can he reduce the Spirit Hall's resentment towards the sect to the greatest extent, but he can also become a sharp sword for the sect to wield while it is on the move. I suppose the Spirit Hall cannot afford to see an unrestrained Title Douluo wantonly destroying branch halls all over the continent."

"On the contrary, if we use the name of 'Haotian Sect' to protect Tang Hao for the sake of something that is dispensable, not only will we fail to protect Tang Hao, but we may also allow the Spirit Hall to use this as a means to force Tang Hao to show himself and use it as a means to control the sect."

"...This is the only way, but it's unfair to Hao-di."

Upon hearing this, Tang Xiao finally sighed and agreed to the Elder's suggestion.

However, upon hearing what he said, the hot-tempered Seventh Elder, Lieyang, couldn't help but curse out loud.

"What a load of rubbish!"

"Him? And he's complaining? He got a 100,000-year-old soul ring and soul bone, and he's gained all the fame, yet the sect has to bear all the blame!"

"Damn it, what a troublemaker! I hope I never see him again, or I'll beat him to a pulp with a hammer!"

"The sect nurtured him and even gave him several inherited soul bones. He not only didn't repay the sect much, but he also kept causing trouble for the sect."

"Ungrateful wretch!"

That was really awful language...

But it's comfortable now.

Although the other elders did not join in the cursing, they couldn't help but applaud the Seventh Elder in their hearts after hearing his "frank expression."

However, the Seventh Elder's scathing words were so harsh that Tang Xiao, who was usually quite good-tempered, could no longer hold back. He broke down, and the aura of a level 93 Title Douluo suddenly spread out, pressing down on the Seventh Elder.

The Seventh Elder, who was only a Soul Douluo at the moment, naturally could not withstand it. Under Tang Xiao's angry pressure without holding back his strength, he felt his internal organs shaking and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Tang Xiao! What are you doing!"

Seeing this, the Grand Elder immediately took action and blocked Tang Xiao's oppressive aura.

"He...he's really gone too far!"

In his anger, Tang Xiao pointed at the Seventh Elder with trembling hands, unable to even call him "Uncle." His face turned red, and his mood suddenly plummeted.

Was Haodi wrong...?

No.

He did it all to protect Ah Yin, but the Spirit Hall kept pursuing him relentlessly; it was all the Spirit Hall's fault.

After consoling himself in this way for a while, Tang Xiao's expression quickly turned cold and hard.

"I don't want to hear you say that to Brother Hao again, Seventh Elder."

"...This is outrageous!"

Upon hearing this, the Seventh Elder immediately became so angry that he puffed out his beard and glared. Even though he was suppressing his physical discomfort, he still had to utter another curse:

"Is the Haotian Sect truly everyone's Haotian Sect, or is it just the Haotian Sect of you two little bastards?!"

Tang Xiao's eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and he began to pant heavily.

"alright!"

Realizing that something was wrong, the Grand Elder eventually stepped in to smooth things over.

"We haven't even seen a shadow of the Spirit Hall yet, are we really going to panic and throw our own ships into disarray?"

Silence fell once again.

After a long while, Tang Xiao, having regained some composure, took the initiative to change the subject and continue discussing countermeasures with the elders present.

"The Spirit Hall is coming with great force this time. Even if we declare that we are severing ties with Brother Hao, they will not let us off so easily."

"yes."

An elder nodded solemnly, then his eyes lit up as if he had thought of something, and he spoke up:

"However, I remember that the Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu once made an agreement with the old sect master. I can't remember the details, but I vaguely recall that as long as Qian Daoliu was alive, he would not allow the Spirit Hall to attack my Clear Sky Sect."

Tang Xiao was overjoyed to hear this, but before he could say anything, he was ruthlessly interrupted by the Grand Elder.

"I remember this, but our Haotian Sect's current location was newly established after the old sect leader led the sect to become the number one sect in the world, while the agreement between Qian Daoliu and the old sect leader was made on the old site of the ancestral land."

"Therefore, even if we want to use this to avoid disaster, we have to give up most of the foundation we have built over the years, or even retire from public life."

"That's not really a big deal. Compared to that, what I'm more worried about is that Qian Daoliu has been living in the Hall of Worship for many years and is not involved in worldly affairs. He might not be able to control his former subordinates who are coming to seek revenge. In fact, since his own son died this time, even if he could control them, he would choose to turn a blind eye and let his subordinates do as they please."

"What if Qian Daoliu takes action personally?"

"No, he is wary of the old sect master's remaining power. As long as the old sect master doesn't appear for a moment, he would never take action personally."

"This is a stroke of luck amidst misfortune."

"Let's put aside these questions that are currently unpredictable and unexplorable for now."

Tang Xiao shook his head with a wry smile and continued:

"The ancestral land isn't very big, is it? What will happen if there are four races with a single attribute then?"

"We have no choice but to give up for now."

The Second Elder made a decisive decision.

"Anyway, the Titans of the Power Clan are absolutely loyal to the lineage of the sect's leader, and the Agility Clan has had intermarriages with us for generations. As for the Destruction Clan and the Defense Clan, it's really hard to say."

"However, these four single-attribute races have always been closely connected, like brothers, and stand on a united front. Once we return in the future and recall the Strength and Agility races first, the remaining two races will not be a problem."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall nodded in agreement.
