Investigate at any cost!

Clearly, this old man already felt that the Clear Sky Sect had been provoked; the authority of his Clear Sky Sect had been trampled ruthlessly underfoot.

To kill someone from his Clear Sky Sect was to slap the Clear Sky Sect in the face.

To slap the Clear Sky Sect in the face was to slap Tang Chen in the face!

How could he not be enraged?

With his illustrious reputation, who in the entire Douluo Continent would dare to lay a hand on him?

Having sat at the pinnacle for so long, Tang Chen would not tolerate anyone coming to challenge his majesty.

He was merely old, not useless.

"Heh, it seems I haven't taken action in too long; even some stray cats and dogs think they can ride on the head of my Clear Sky Sect."

"Zhan'er, have no reservations. The dignity of my Clear Sky Sect is not something just anyone can trample upon."

Tang Chen's tone was unkind, and killing intent erupted from his eyes involuntarily. He wanted to see exactly who dared to challenge the majesty of his Clear Sky Sect.

Tang Zhan, the son of Tang Chen, felt immense pressure facing his father. Sensing the killing intent radiating from him, he trembled.

He didn't want to be this way, but Tang Chen's reputation was simply too overwhelming; as his son, the pressure was immense.

Facing Tang Chen, he felt more fear and timidity than anything else.

Tang Zhan swallowed hard and shrank his neck: "Fa... Father, I will certainly handle this matter well!"

Tang Chen didn't say much more and waved his hand; he felt mostly helpless regarding this son of his.

He had worked so hard to develop the Clear Sky Sect into what it was today, so why hadn't this son inherited his domineering spirit?

He was too weak; Tang Chen even doubted if he was his biological son.

What Tang Chen did not know was that Tang Hao would die even more miserably, angered to death—yes, angered to death—though he would certainly have fought a battle with Martial Soul Hall first.

But that did not stop the rumors that Tang Hao was angered to death.

Yet, having only this one biological son, what could he do?

This was also why Tang Chen would favor Tang Hao so much; Tang Hao was domineering, or he wouldn't have inherited Tang Chen's title later on.

Clear Sky Douluo—that title currently referred to Tang Chen!

His mastery of the Ring Detonation technique was nothing short of divine.

However, since Tang Hao had not yet been born, he could only pin his hopes on this son of his.

"Qian Daoliu, if this matter was done by your Martial Soul Hall, don't blame me for what happens next."

Tang Chen snorted. He did not fear Martial Soul Hall in the slightest; on the contrary, he was eager to have a fight with Qian Daoliu.

The two had not yet traveled to Sea God Island, had not yet met Bo Saixi, and had not truly fought a battle; Tang Chen was quite keen to cross hands with Qian Daoliu.

News of the provocation against the Clear Sky Sect quickly reached the ears of the major powers.

Within Martial Soul Hall, Qian Daoliu was indifferent. The Clear Sky Sect? He simply didn't want to act; he was, after all, a god's emissary!

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect adopted a spectator's attitude and paid little attention, as it had nothing to do with them.

The reaction was greatest from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. When Yu Luomian learned the news that Tang Lie was dead, he was terrified and scrambled to find his old father.

"What! You say the one you encountered before Tang Lie died was you?" Yu Mingkai, the father of the current sect master Yu Yuanzhen, looked at his second son in disbelief.

Damn it, damn it all! With the Clear Sky Sect's domineering nature, even if it had nothing to do with them, they would surely be bled dry!

Anxiety grew in Yu Mingkai's heart. He didn't have many years left to live and had hoped to spend his twilight years in peace; how did he end up in such a situation?

"Call your elder brother; we go to the Clear Sky Sect now!"

Yu Mingkai made a swift decision. Rather than letting the other side come for them, it was better to go to them voluntarily. Even if they had to pay a price, it wouldn't be as steep.

"Father, Tang Lie's death has nothing to do with me!" Yu Luomian was confused.

Yu Mingkai roared: "I told you to go, so go! Why so much nonsense?"

How could this stupid son of his still not understand?

Did the Clear Sky Sect care about the truth? As long as you were involved, given Tang Chen's domineering nature, you would be skinned alive even if you didn't die.

Sighing deeply, Yu Mingkai's furrowed brows did not relax.

On the way there, after hearing Yu Luomian's explanation, Yu Yuanzhen also sighed deeply. Alas.

"Second brother, this matter isn't your fault, but the Clear Sky Sect is powerful; we have no choice but to bow our heads."

"Let's go!"

Yu Mingkai took his two sons to the Clear Sky Sect in person to plead for mercy.

Weakness is the original sin; that is how the Douluo Continent is.

If you are weak, you have no human rights. If I am strong, I can do whatever I want.

It was less about the Clear Sky Sect and more about the overwhelming pressure of Tang Chen.

When Tang Chen learned that the people from the Blue Lightning had arrived, he was quite surprised. Since the other party was a sect master, he decided to see them.

"Your Excellency of the Clear Sky Sect!" Yu Mingkai and his two companions bowed, standing respectfully.

Tang Chen chuckled, "So it is Mingkai. It has been many years; why are you still a Spirit Douluo?"

Contempt—it was blatant contempt. The other party was merely a Spirit Douluo, not even worthy of Tang Chen looking him in the eye.

Hearing this mocking remark, Yu Yuanzhen clenched his fists involuntarily. I must break through to become a Titled Douluo!!!

Yu Mingkai greeted him with a smile, "This old man's talent has reached its limit, and there is no hope of breaking through. I have let Your Excellency see a joke."

Tang Chen raised a hand to cut him off, "Enough, spare me the nonsense. Why have you come to my Clear Sky Sect?"

Yu Mingkai felt a bit awkward, but there was no help for it; when under someone else's roof, one must bow their head.

Yu Mingkai hesitated for a moment, "This old man heard that nephew Tang Lie was harmed by villains. I once saw nephew Tang Lie in the Star Dou Forest, so I came to provide a lead."

Yu Mingkai kept his attitude very low, terrified that Tang Chen might lash out regardless of anything else.

Tang Chen lifted his hand slightly, his spirit power tightly gripping Yu Luomian's throat, "Speak. Tell me exactly what happened."

"Your... Your Excellency... the matter... the matter is like this..."

With his throat being throttled, Yu Luomian stuttered through the account of his meeting with Tang Lie...

Tang Chen snorted coldly and flung Yu Luomian aside, slamming him heavily against the wall. Yu Luomian spat out blood, keeping his head low, not daring to even glance at Tang Chen.

Seeing this, Yu Mingkai felt a sense of relief; it seemed his sect would be safe after all.

If Tang Chen had intended to move against his sect, he would not have taken this attitude.

"Death is spared, but punishment is inevitable. Yu Mingkai, within three days, you will hand over one-third of the Blue Lightning resources to my Clear Sky Sect!"

Tang Chen spoke coldly.

Yu Mingkai felt incredibly pained. He could not accept such an outcome, yet he had no choice but to accept it.

If he didn't, once Tang Chen investigated the Blue Lightning, it wouldn't be as simple as just one-third of their resources.

Sighing inwardly, Yu Mingkai nodded and agreed.

Tang Chen snorted coldly, "Get out!"

Yu Mingkai had Yu Yuanzhen help Yu Luomian up, and the three of them, who had arrived in such a hurry, left in a state of utter disarray...

Standing before the gates of the Clear Sky Sect, Yu Yuanzhen cast a cold glance back. The humiliation of today—I will surely return it in the future!

Yu Yuanzhen swore to himself that he would become a Titled Douluo!!
