NOVEL NEXT Chapter 370: Tang Xiao Steps Forward
As soon as Tang Feng and Tang Lie saw Tang Xiao, they quickly walked up to him, their faces filled with agitation as they loudly complained.
From their words, one thing was clear: they desperately wanted Tang Xiao to lead the five elders of the Clear Sky Sect to annihilate the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family!!
"Sect Leader, are you just going to stand by and watch as Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Luomian humiliate our Clear Sky Sect?!"
"That's right, Sect Leader! Although our Clear Sky Sect was forced into seclusion by the Spirit Hall, that was entirely because our ancestor hadn't returned. Once our ancestor returns, do you think he'll swallow this insult?!"
"Hmph, the Spirit Hall is one thing, but now even the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family dares to bully our Clear Sky Sect! Sect Leader, stop hesitating! If you keep hesitating, our sect's dignity will be completely lost!!"
For a moment, due to the loud complaints of Tang Feng and Tang Lie, the other elders also looked at Tang Xiao with anger in their eyes.
They were just waiting for Tang Xiao's order to set out and destroy the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family.
They were powerless against the Spirit Hall, so they could temporarily suppress their anger.
But now, the ones provoking them were the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, a sect that had long been living under the shadow of the Clear Sky Sect, the so-called third-ranked sect on the continent!
Being bullied by such a sect, the five elders who had experienced the glory of the Clear Sky Sect as the number one sect on the continent naturally couldn't stand to see this happen!
However, the main reason for their anger was that they had learned from Tang Lie and Tang Feng that the Moon Pavilion's profits had been completely taken over by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family.
This was the most important point of their anger, as the Moon Pavilion's profits were their lifeline, their source of income!
How could they tolerate such a valuable resource being coveted by a third-rate family?!
"No, we can't go! Elder Brother, we can't go to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family!!"
Just as Tang Xiao was feeling a headache from the angry faces of the five elders, Tang Hao, upon hearing about the plan to attack the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, immediately stepped forward and spoke with agitation.
"You... Tang Hao! You dare to come back?! Give me back my son's life!!"
Seeing Tang Hao, the Seventh Elder, who was already extremely agitated, couldn't hold back any longer and wanted to strike Tang Hao down immediately.
However, Tang Xiao, with quick reflexes, stopped him.
At the same time, he shifted the topic.
"Why, Brother Hao? Does the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family have some secret?"
"No, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family has no secrets, but in recent years, a young man named Xiao Yu has emerged in their family. This young man's strength and talent are extraordinary.
By the age of twelve, he was already a Soul Emperor-level powerhouse. By now, he might have even broken through to the Soul Sage level. But that's not the most important part.
The most important thing is that he is the Dragon Son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family and also the son-in-law of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan's patriarch. Therefore, if we were to go to war with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan would definitely not stand idly by!!
And then there's the Spirit Hall. If we go to war with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, the Spirit Hall might not intervene, but they might take advantage of the situation to kick us while we're down!"
Hearing Tang Hao's explanation, the angry elders in the room finally quieted down.
Tang Xiao's face was filled with a complex expression.
He hadn't expected that after years of seclusion, the situation on the continent had become so strange.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family seemed to have formed an alliance.
No wonder, no wonder Tang Yuehua had chosen to hand over the Moon Pavilion's profits to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. It was because they had already formed a partnership.
Perhaps this was also why Tang Yuehua hadn't reported this to the sect—she was afraid the sect would do something irrational.
In an instant, Tang Xiao thought of many things and understood many things.
While he felt heartache for Tang Yuehua, he also felt helpless and powerless about the situation!
With their ancestor Tang Chen still missing and the Spirit Hall looming over them, the Clear Sky Sect simply couldn't make a comeback.
In the end, ignoring the anger of the elders present, the usually calm Tang Xiao quickly made a decision: he would go and talk to Yu Yuanzhen, the clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, himself.
An all-out war was naturally out of the question, but the Moon Pavilion's profits had to be reclaimed. They were essential for the Clear Sky Sect's continued development.
Although the elders were very dissatisfied with this decision, when Tang Xiao said that those who were unhappy could go and confront Yu Yuanzhen themselves, they all shut their mouths and didn't dare to say another word.
These elders, although they had broken through to the Title Douluo level, were no match for the veteran Title Douluo Yu Yuanzhen. They knew this themselves!
Thus, they quickly took the opportunity to back down.
After this, the focus of the discussion in the meeting room shifted from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family to the issue of the Moon Pavilion's profits!
After all, the Moon Pavilion's profits were a valuable resource, and none of them were willing to give up their share.
In the end, Tang Xiao stated that the distribution of the Moon Pavilion's profits would be decided after he returned from his visit to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family.
This temporarily calmed the five elders.
Later, Tang Xiao officially visited the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family.
As for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, Yu Yuanzhen naturally welcomed Tang Xiao's arrival.
Although Tang Xiao was a junior to Yu Yuanzhen, in the soul master world, strength was what mattered.
Tang Xiao's strength surpassed Yu Yuanzhen's.
Moreover, Tang Xiao didn't seem to be here to cause trouble.
Thus, Yu Yuanzhen naturally welcomed him.
For the next half day, Yu Yuanzhen and Tang Xiao discussed the distribution of the Moon Pavilion's profits in a room.
In the end, Tang Xiao invoked the prestige of their ancestor Tang Chen, forcing Yu Yuanzhen to hand over 40% of the profits for the sake of his family's stability.
As for the remaining 60%, it was divided among the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, the Blue Tyrant Academy, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan!
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family took 30%.
The Blue Tyrant Academy took 10%.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan took 20%.
Although Tang Xiao wanted to fight for a better deal—after all, 40% was almost half of the original 70%—he knew that going back with such a result would earn him endless complaints from the elders!
But the Moon Pavilion's profits were tied to too many parties.
Any move against one party would provoke a strong counterattack from the others.
The Clear Sky Sect wasn't in a position to handle such a situation.
With their ancestor Tang Chen still missing, Tang Xiao's threats alone weren't very effective.
Without the ability to back up his threats, they were nothing more than empty words.
However, in the end, to assert the dignity of the Clear Sky Sect as the number one tool spirit on the continent, Tang Xiao used the excuse of a friendly spar to fight Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Luomian.
