Background / History
Tang Hao is the father of Tang San, whom he had with Ah Yin, a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Beast. Ah Yin sacrificed herself to protect Tang Hao and their son from Spirit Hall, leaving Tang Hao determined to revive her and deeply hostile toward Spirit Hall. 46 68
After years away from the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Hao returns when Spirit Hall and its allies prepare to attack. Although the sect elders blame him for the sect’s past suffering, he insists that he did nothing wrong and has returned to restore the sect’s standing. 65 66
He reunites the Strength, Breaking, Agility, and Defense Clans with the Clear Sky Sect, restoring practical capabilities in forging, construction, medicine, offense, and scouting before the coming war. 75
The Clear Sky Sect is ultimately destroyed in the conflict with Spirit Hall’s forces. Tang Hao escapes with Tang San and Xiao Wu, carrying the loss of his sect and Tang Xiao’s death as further grounds for vengeance. 90 92 99
