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

Chapter 31 The Beginning of Oppression—Sect Leader Tang Xiao, You Didn't Want This Either…

"Is the newcomer the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall?"

Tang Xiao had no time to consider the slightly low morale of the Haotian Sect camp at the moment, so he could only quickly start a conversation in an attempt to divert everyone's attention.

The Clear Sky Sect has made as many preparations as possible for the Spirit Hall's aggressive advance. At least they have learned that Bibi Dong is leading the army and that she is also aware of her identity.

To be honest, they were initially somewhat indignant that the Spirit Hall had sent such a young girl to confront them, but considering Bibi Dong's status as Qian Xunji's disciple, and the presence of Golden Crocodile Douluo to back them up...

They no longer had any other thoughts.

Hopefully, Princess Bibi Dong is still inexperienced and her methods won't be too ruthless.

"You're Tang Xiao? You're nowhere near as good as your brother."

However, instead of acknowledging Tang Xiao's question, Bibi Dong directly stabbed him in the heart.

That really hurts.

Tang Xiao's face instantly darkened, but he still had to force a smile and say, against his will:

"Hao's talent truly makes me, as his older brother, feel ashamed of myself."

"Talent?"

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong smiled.

He slammed the papal scepter he held in his hand down, the slap against his vehicle producing a crisp sound.

"Of course, he must be exceptionally talented. Otherwise, how could he have killed my Spirit Hall Pope?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the Haotian Sect suddenly felt the pressure increase dramatically, and even breathing seemed to become much more difficult.

"Your Highness, please allow us to explain..."

Seeing Tang Xiao's hesitant expression, as if he still wanted to protect Tang Hao, that troublemaker, the Third Elder couldn't help but speak up.

"That bastard has been expelled from the sect; he is no longer a disciple of the Haotian Sect."

"..."

Tang Xiao opened his mouth, but after seeing the Grand Elder's subtle glance, he ultimately remained silent and said nothing.

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong raised an eyebrow and smiled again.

"Whether someone is a disciple of your Haotian Sect or not is not up to you to decide with a single word."

"Leaving aside the others..."

She leaned against the armrest, propped her head up, and gently pointed the scepter at Tang Xiao with her other hand.

"Would he refuse his genius younger brother's future return?"

The scepter swept over the elders of the Haotian Sect one by one.

"Even if you want to stop it, do you think you can stop your sect leader?"

The scepter finally came to rest in front of Tang Xiao again.

"Let him say it himself: you old folks aren't qualified!"

In that instant.

Even the Grand Elder couldn't help but feel his blood pressure spike, his fists clenching tightly.

However, he quickly realized what was happening and immediately sent a telepathic message to the people beside him, signaling them to stay calm and not fall for the enemy's divisive tactics.

Tang Xiao's face grew increasingly grim. Compared to his father, he was still far too young.

They are not good at hiding their emotions.

In the end, his face was incredibly stiff, even slightly flushed, and looked bizarre.

He took a deep breath and spoke heavily:

"Brother Hao... no, Tang Hao has been expelled from the Haotian Sect from this day forward, and will have no further connection with the Haotian Sect!"

"Hehe~"

However, he was met with Bibi Dong's uncontrollable laughter.

"Like I said before, what you say is all just talk and can be taken back at any time; it's useless."

"Then what do you think should be done?"

Tang Xiao's voice cracked slightly as he spoke.

At this moment, Bibi Dong slightly moved the hand that was supporting her head away, then slowly raised a finger, and said somewhat seriously:

"First of all, there should be no more legends of 'Haotian Douluo' on the mainland, or rather, no new ones should appear for the time being."

"You know what I mean, right?"

"Sect Master Tang Xiao, you wouldn't want the prestigious name of 'Haotian' to be tarnished by a mere 'rat,' would you?"

"……I see."

Tang Xiao's voice was low and deep.

"The Haotian Sect will soon announce that Tang Hao, the renegade disciple, will never be allowed to inherit the title of 'Haotian'."

Bibi Dong nodded, then raised her second finger.

"Secondly, Tang Hao is, after all, a Title Douluo. Out of humanitarian spirit, it wouldn't be right for us to just strip him of his title directly. Considering that he was once a disciple of your Clear Sky Sect..."

"On behalf of the Spirit Hall, I, this Holy Maiden, will bestow upon him another title today: 'Ri Tian Tian' (日天天, meaning 'Day After Day'). What do you say?"

"..."

Tang Xiao closed his eyes slightly, receiving the Elder's message to "calm down," then slowly opened them again, his eyes slightly red, and said in an even lower voice:

"On behalf of my elder brother Tang Hao, I thank Her Highness the Holy Maiden for the bestowal of this title. The title 'Ritian Tian' will also spread throughout the continent along with the news of Tang Hao's expulsion from the Haotian Sect."

Bibi Dong nodded in satisfaction, then raised her third finger.

"I believe that although Tang Hao is unruly, he can be considered 'loyal and righteous'. In order to ensure that he will not wantonly slaughter members of my Spirit Hall in the future, I hope that Sect Master Tang Xiao can vouch for me."

"What do you want?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of murderous intent flickered between Tang Xiao's brows.

This was one of the reasons why Tang Hao was expelled from the sect, which was originally planned within the Haotian Sect. How could the Holy Maiden have foreseen this?!

Was she just too smart, or...?

"snort."

At this moment, the Golden Crocodile Douluo in the void seemed to speak out unintentionally.

Tang Xiao's face turned pale, and he had no choice but to suppress his thoughts for the time being and stop thinking about it.

"What do I want?"

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong raised an eyebrow slightly and then chuckled softly.

"Heh, just now you were still saying 'in the name of your elder brother Tang Hao,' how come you're so heartless and ungrateful now, even worse than Tang Hao, planning to let him commit evil deeds?"

"...That's not what I meant."

Tang Xiao's face was ashen, but after experiencing these pressures, he suddenly became more composed, which can be considered as growth.

So he simply shook his head and said that, without showing any further reaction.

You better not be.

Bibi Dong gave him a meaningful look, but didn't dwell on the topic, and continued:

"Let's spread another message: if Tang Hao loses control outside, regardless of whether he uses the Clear Sky Hammer or not, as long as my Spirit Hall discovers any trace of him slaughtering members of the sect, no matter how powerful or ordinary the victims were, if even one person dies, this debt will be held against you, the Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect!"

"certainly……"

"Our Spirit Hall also values ​​reason and compassion. Considering that you only have one life, you certainly can't bear too much debt. How about this, the Clear Sky Sect will take care of your debt."

"Whether ordinary people or soul masters, if any member of my Spirit Hall dies at the hands of that scoundrel Tang Hao, for every one who dies, a direct descendant of your Clear Sky Sect must pay with their life!"

"When the direct descendants are all dead, the collateral descendants; when the collateral descendants are all dead, the branch descendants; when the branch descendants are all dead... until there's no one left to die..."

"As far as I know, there should be another Tang Yuehua in the Heaven Dou Empire, right?"

"Sect Master Tang Xiao, you didn't want this either..."
