"Come here! Send Xiao'er back to the room!"
"Yes!"
Two disciples of the Clear Sky Sect walked in from outside the hall upon hearing the sound, and one after another lifted the stretcher under Tang Xiao.
Tang Xiao was lying on the stretcher, motionless, like a lifeless corpse.
He stared blankly at the beams on the roof of the palace, unblinking, as if his soul had left his body and only this empty shell remained here.
Two disciples carried the stretcher one behind the other and walked towards Tang Xiao's room.
The footsteps gradually faded away until they disappeared at the end of the passage.
After the two disciples left, only Tang Zhen and Tang Hao were still kneeling outside the hall.
Tang Zhen turned his head sharply, his eyes like knives, stabbed straight at Tang Hao who had been kneeling outside the hall, and roared angrily:
"Beast--! Get in here!"
"Tell me what happened truthfully!"
When Tang Hao came back earlier, they had briefly told Tang Zhen what happened.
But Tang Zhen felt that Tang Hao's words might be hiding something.
It is impossible for Zhao Linchuan to destroy Tang Xiao for no reason. This is against common sense and does not comply with the unspoken rules of the Douluo Continent.
If today he, Zhao Linchuan, relies on his strength to destroy the talented leaders of other families, then tomorrow there will be elders from other families who rely on their strength to destroy his new generation Spirit Hall, Soul Master.
In this way, wouldn't Douluo Continent's new generation Soul Master put everyone in danger and be in chaos?
There must be a reason behind this that he doesn't know.
"Dad..."
Tang Hao lowered his head and walked in from outside the hall.
His steps were heavy and slow, his face still bore the red mark from being slapped by Tang Zhen last night, and there was still blood on the corner of his mouth, making him look miserable.
"... Here's the thing."
Tang Hao stood still in front of Tang Zhen, with his head lowered, not daring to look into his father's eyes.
"The child had something to hide before..."
About a quarter of an hour later.
"Ah--! Damn--!!"
"Bang--!"
A dull explosion exploded inside the Clear Sky Hall. The sound was like thunder, causing the dust on the roof of the hall to fall.
Tang Hao responded, and the whole person flew out instantly.
His body was like a stone that was blown away, drawing a parabola in the air, hitting the stone pillars outside the hall hard, bouncing back, falling to the ground with a "plop", and rolled several times before stopping.
"Asshole! Asshole!"
Tang Zhen stood in the hall angrily, his eyes were red, and the veins on his forehead popped out like earthworms.
"You bastard--!"
"You actually told our enemies the foundation of my sect, Clear Sky Sect!"
"You traitor! You traitor!" He strode towards Tang Hao, "Today I will clean up the sect and kill you, this traitor!"
"Dad--!" Tang Yuehua, who had just turned around, came from the side.
Upon seeing this, she quickly stepped forward, reached out and took Tang Zhen's arm, and clasped his sleeves tightly with her fingers.
"Dad! What's wrong with Brother Hao?"
"Calm down!"
"Get away!"
Tang Zhen waved his arm with such force that Tang Yuehua was instantly thrown away three to five meters, staggered, and fell heavily to the ground.
Her knees hit the cold stone floor, and she gritted her teeth in pain. Her palms were scratched, and blood oozed from them.
"Dad!"
Tang Yuehua ignored the pain and quickly stood up, chasing Tang Zhen again as quickly as possible.
Her steps staggered and she almost fell down again, but she gritted her teeth and held on.
"Dad! Calm down!"
"Big brother is useless. Now you are just a son!"
"If you kill Brother Hao again, our main lineage will be cut off!"
"If it's broken, it's broken!"
Tang Zhen threw Tang Yuehua away again, with greater force than before.
Tang Yuehua's body was like a leaf blown down by the wind, flying upside down again and falling heavily to the ground.
Her forehead hit the stone slab, causing a gash. Blood flowed down her forehead, mixed with tears, and blurred her vision.
"I don't want such a rebellious son!"
"Dad..."
Tang Yuehua fell to the ground again. The pain made her burst into tears. The tears mixed with blood, drawing red marks on her face.
She used all her strength and shouted loudly:
"Dad! Brother Hao is the successor of Clear Sky Douluo that grandpa kissed!"
"If you kill him, how will you explain to grandpa when he comes back?"
As soon as these words came out, Tang Zhen stopped instantly.
He looked at Tang Hao with red eyes, the anger in his eyes was still burning, but the flames no longer erupted outwards, and his breathing was still rapid, but the foot he took out was hanging in the air and did not fall for a long time.
For a long time, he slowly retracted his foot, turned around, turned his back to Tang Hao, and said in a low and hoarse voice:
"You must keep this matter in your stomach!"
"Don't say a word!"
"Especially your uncles, do you understand?!"
"... Yes."
Tang Hao sat up holding his stomach and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. His fingers were covered with bright red blood.
"My child knows..."
"Brother, what's going on?" Tang Lie and other brothers rushed over together for some unknown reason.
"Nothing."
Tang Zhen forced down his anger, turned around, faced Tang Lie and others, and asked:
"Why are you here?"
"Brother." Tang Lie asked without answering, "I heard that Xiao'er is disabled and will no longer be able to practice?"
"Where did you hear this?" Tang Zhen asked with a frown.
"Haha--"
Tang Lie smiled and took two steps forward and said in an understatement:
"My younger brother just met Master Ye Family and casually asked her about his nephew's condition."
"Yuehua, go down with your second brother first." Tang Zhen gave the order first, then turned and looked into the hall, "If anything happens, let's go inside and talk."
After saying that, Tang Zhen didn't give Tang Lie and the others a chance to continue speaking, and walked straight into the hall.
Tang Lie and others looked at each other after hearing this, then nodded, then took steps to follow in.
Tang Hao also stood up at this time. His legs were a little weak and he shook before he could stand still.
Tang Hao looked at Tang Yuehua who was standing up and asked with concern:
"Yuehua, are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
Tang Yuehua raised his hand to wipe the blood and tears from his face, but they were wiped everywhere, making him even more embarrassed.
"Second brother, don't make father angry again."
"I'm going back to my room to treat my injuries first..."
After saying that, she staggered towards her room.
"Alas--!"
Tang Hao glanced at his sister's back and lowered his head feebly.
His hands were clenched into fists at his sides, then loosened and clenched again, over and over again.
Finally, after hesitating for a moment, he took steps towards Tang Xiao's room.
No matter what, the reason why his eldest brother became like this has nothing to do with him.
For both emotional and rational reasons, I must go and see him.
