Douluo: Legend of the Holy Land

Chapter 249 Tang Shenwang was ambushed again.

That's it!

Tang Xiao and Tang San were stunned at first, then overjoyed. Level 100? So their grandfather (great-grandfather) had already reached such a level?

"This is the crucial moment for my evaluation!"

Within the blood-red light, a deep voice continued: "If it weren't for Xiao'er and Xiao San triggering the mechanism that opened the City of Slaughter, I wouldn't even have noticed the changes in the outside world."

"Xiao'er, Xiao San, because I have already completed the Eight Trials of Asura, only this final trial remains. The divine power left behind by the Asura God in the City of Slaughter has been completely infused into me, and the City of Slaughter no longer exists. Therefore, there is no point in testing here. You two should now take the Haotian Token back to the sect and tell the Elder Hall that it is my will, and the Haotian Sect will immediately resume its activities!"

Tang Xiao cautiously suggested, "Grandfather, since you are only one test away from inheriting the divine position and breaking through to level 100, why not wait until you break through before the sect makes its comeback? With you in charge, who in this world can be our opponent?"

"You bastard! Have you forgotten what I just said?!"

Xiao Yu feigned anger, but inwardly he was quite pleased with himself as he angrily rebuked the leader of the number one sect in the world: "Haotian Sect, the Haotian Sect that looks down on the world! If you don't even have this much courage, then I think you should just hide in the deep mountains forever and slowly wait for your demise."

I can tell you clearly that although a Soul Master who breaks through to level 100 will be immortal, they can only stay on the continent for about a hundred years. After that, they must ascend to the God Realm, and the gods who enter the God Realm are not allowed to interfere with it.

Having lost its beliefs and without my protection, how long can the Haotian Sect stand on this continent?

"Grandson understands!"

Tang Xiao, who had been thoroughly scolded, suddenly realized his mistake and hurriedly assured Tang Chen, "Grandfather, don't worry, I will immediately inform the elders' council and arrange for the sect's resurgence upon my return. I will await your return!"

"Um!"

Xiao Yu continued to pretend to be Tang Chen and instructed Tang Xiao: "Your strategy for your comeback last time was not wrong. The Heaven Dou Empire is full of incompetent good-for-nothings. Only the Star Luo Empire, which is based on martial prowess, is the most suitable partner for us."

"but."

Xiao Yu changed the subject and continued, "You chose the wrong way to make a comeback, sneaking around and developing in the shadows like rats that can't stand the light. Who would dare to truly trust us with this approach? Even the Star Luo Empire, with which you've already formed a partnership, wouldn't dare to fully support the Haotian Sect!"

"Grandfather is right."

Tang Xiao nodded silently. When the sect approached the Star Luo Empire, although the Star Luo Empire expressed its intention to cooperate, it did maintain a certain distance from them. Whether it was supporting the Third Prince Dai Mubai or providing the sect with the necessary funds, manpower and resources, the Star Luo Empire left some room for maneuver. Now that he thought about it, it was because the Star Luo Empire did not trust them.

"Disciples of the Clear Sky Sect can lose anything, but they cannot lose their unwavering belief in victory. If they are to do something, they must do it with integrity!"

"Thank you for your teachings, Grandfather. I understand now. Please rest assured, Grandfather, when you return as a god, I will surely show you a Haotian Sect of unwavering integrity!"

Tang Xiao kowtowed deeply to Xiao Yu, his respectful and obedient demeanor making Xiao Yu want to burst out laughing.

"Little San, let's go. Grandfather is at a crucial moment in his divine examination, so let's not disturb him any longer!"

After kowtowing, Tang Xiao got up and prepared to call Tang San to leave.

"etc!"

Just as Tang Xiao and his nephew Tang San turned to leave, Xiao Yu called out to them. He had disguised himself as Tang Chen and appeared in front of the uncle and nephew not only to trick them into bringing the Haotian Sect into the open, but more importantly, he planned to trick Tang Shenwang again.

When Xiao Yu first met Tang San, he discovered that after Tang San awakened the Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul, the death aura that he had secretly injected into Tang San during the Soul Master Competition had become extremely weak and could no longer affect Tang San.

With a wave of his hand, Xiao Yu enveloped Tang San in a crimson light, and his immense soul power instantly locked onto Tang San's body, lifting him up.

Tang Xiao stood to the side without moving; his grandfather certainly wouldn't harm his own descendants.

The crimson light continuously merged into Tang San's body, and Tang San's soul power increased like a gushing well, reaching level 53, level 54, level 55, and finally stopping at level 56.

"Thank you, Great-Grandfather!"

As the red light faded, Tang San landed slowly. Feeling the increase in his soul power, Tang San was overjoyed. The increase in soul power to level four at the Soul King level was something he could at least save. He hurriedly bowed and thanked them.

"Good child, no need for formalities. This energy is the surplus after I refined the Asura God's power from the City of Slaughter after completing the Eight Trials of Asura. Consider it a gift from your great-grandfather!"

Looking at Tang San, who was expressing his gratitude profusely, Xiao Yu suppressed a smile. Indeed, a portion of the red light contained the power of the Asura God that he had refined from the City of Slaughter. Pure power of the Asura God could indeed enhance Tang San's aptitude and accelerate his cultivation speed.

But how could Xiao Yu possibly help Tang Shenwang?

Within this red energy, Xiao Yu also incorporated his Hades power, which greatly enhanced Tang San's cultivation level in a short period of time. However, this came at the cost of consuming Tang San's life force. The fourth-level soul power he had just generated consumed ten years of Tang Shenwang's lifespan.

Moreover, the power of Hades took this opportunity to quietly lurk within Tang Shenwang's body. As long as Xiao Yu is willing, no matter how far away Tang Shenwang is from him, he can activate this power within Tang Shenwang's body at any time with his will. Even if Tang Shenwang achieves godhood in the future, he can still severely injure him in an instant.

"Xiao'er".

Xiao Yu continued to address Tang Xiao, the dignified sect leader of one of the three upper sects, in the tone of an elder: "Tang San's talent is unparalleled in the world. He is the future hope of our Haotian Sect. How can such a prodigy be left to wander outside? As the chief elder of the Haotian Sect, I hereby announce that Tang San, a third-generation disciple of the Haotian Sect, is hereby reinstated as the next sect leader. What do you think?"

"What Grandfather said is exactly what I've been thinking!"

Tang Xiao quickly expressed his opinion. He had originally had this idea, but it could not be realized due to the opposition of several elders of the sect. Now that Tang Chen had spoken, he was full of confidence. With the support of his grandfather, let's see if those elders dare to have any objections.

Tang Xiao and Tang San beamed with joy, while Xiao Yu, hiding in the red light, smiled even more broadly, secretly thinking as he looked at Tang San outside, "If I don't elevate you to such a high position, how can I drag the entire Clear Sky Sect down with me?"
