A secret art for absorbing Soul Rings beyond one's level?
Good, good, good! When Tang Hao heard what Tai Tan had said, he could barely contain his excitement.
A secret art like that naturally had to be used on Clear Sky Sect disciples, or it would be a waste. Someday, he would have to find time to get it from that brat Jiang Li!
Tang Hao magnanimously declared that, given his eldest son's talent, once he returned to the clan and was acknowledged as a member of the family, he would surely become the next sect master of the Clear Sky Sect.
To show their approval of Jiang Li's contributions, Tang Hao promised that he would convince the uncles and elders to establish a position subordinate only to the sect master and elders, thereby honoring Jiang Li for all he had done for the Clear Sky Sect!
Tang Hao had naturally caught some of the hints in Tai Tan's words.
Anyone could make a pretty speech, but whether they actually followed through was another matter.
"Tai Tan, I'll bring this up with Xiao San after this."
"Rest assured."
Hearing Tang Hao's "promise," Tai Tan immediately dropped to his knees and kowtowed several times.
Sure enough, following his master all those years ago had been the best decision he had ever made.
Tang Hao decided not to linger any longer. He had originally planned to head in the opposite direction from Heaven Dou City and destroy some local Spirit Halls to vent his hatred. But now, it seemed he still had to give the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect a proper show of force before leaving.
"That brat Jiang Li isn't all that strong, when you get down to it. I suppose I can make an exception and take action myself."
