Tang Chen Returns to the Clear Sky Sect, Spirit Hall Is Unhappy

"Tang Chen." At this time, Bo Saixi had already left Slaughter City with the Clear Sky Sect's Elder Council, including Tang Xiao and Tang Chen.

"Xixi, all these years, I truly made you suffer. If it hadn't been because of me, you wouldn't have waited for me for so long. By the way, I want to ask—how is the Clear Sky Sect now? My Clear Sky Sect is still there, right? I've been gone for so long. Are you sure nothing happened?"

Tang Chen voiced his concerns as well. After being parasitized for so long, his mind had been somewhat unclear, and he was deeply worried about his important sect.

"Grandfather, there's nothing wrong with the Clear Sky Sect right now. There are just some things we want to tell you after you return to the Clear Sky Sect. The sect is fine for now."

"I understand. As an irresponsible sect master, I truly have been far too irresponsible. I left all of you to bear so many burdens. I've wronged you."

At this time, Tang Xiao and the Clear Sky Sect's Elder Council had already decided that, once they returned, they would tell Tang Chen about the events before his reincarnation in his previous life.

If this spiritual totem of the Clear Sky Sect learned of the future's course, he would surely be able to lead them in defeating Spirit Hall. And even if Tang Chen could not defeat Spirit Hall, they could wait for Tang San to be born. Then, they could still wait for Tang San to become a god and defeat Spirit Hall.

At that time, the Clear Sky Sect could still surpass the number one sect under heaven and become the overlord of Douluo Continent. By then, all of Douluo Continent would bear the Tang surname.

However, the members of the Elder Council did not particularly like Tang San.

Before Tang San became strong, he said that everything had been his father's doing and that he would bear his father's mistakes. After becoming strong, it turned into, "My father was right. You Elder Council members were the ones at fault." That kind of behavior was simply ridiculous.

If he had acted that way toward Spirit Hall, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, or the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, they would not have said anything. But the problem was that Tang San had done it to their Clear Sky Sect—to his own people!

They all bore the Tang surname.

Therefore, the Clear Sky Sect's Elder Council did not particularly like Tang San. They hoped even more that Tang Chen would lead them out of their predicament.

Now that Tang Chen had been rescued and Tang San had not yet been born, there was plenty of room to maneuver.

In the eyes of the Clear Sky Sect's Elder Council, as long as Tang Chen and Bo Saixi came together, they would surely produce a descendant with the potential to become a god—a child who would definitely reach the god level in the future.

Very soon, news spread across Douluo Continent: Tang Chen, the first-generation Clear Sky Douluo who had mysteriously vanished while seeking the path to godhood, had been brought back by the Clear Sky Sect.

In an instant, the entire Douluo Continent erupted.

"What?! Tang Chen? That Tang Chen from the legends, the one who fought the Grand Worshipper... and even gained a slight victory over him?!"

The Titled Douluo I remembered were dumbfounded. They had originally believed that, with their memories of the future and their reincarnation, they would surely be able to help the Five Soul Sword defeat the Clear Sky Sect and those aristocratic powers of Douluo Continent. Then Spirit Hall would certainly dominate Douluo Continent.

But the prerequisite was that Spirit Hall possessed absolute strength. Now, however, a problem had appeared: Tang Chen had returned!

The man who had once defeated Spirit Hall's Grand Worshipper, Qian Daoliu, had returned. This was not exactly a secret within Spirit Hall; many people knew about it.

As long as someone had once served as an elder of Spirit Hall, they basically knew about the battle between Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen.

This was also why Spirit Hall had never dared to underestimate the Clear Sky Sect. With such a legendary figure around, they truly could not rest easy.

It had not been easy for that man to leave in search of the path to godhood. They had no longer needed to fear the Clear Sky Sect. But now that this legendary figure had returned, the trouble was enormous. They had never been particularly afraid of the Clear Sky Sect before.

After all, that man had been gone. They had only worried that he might truly embark upon the path to godhood and cause great trouble if he returned, so they had remained cautiously curious about him.

But now that man had returned, they had to become even more cautious.

After all, this man's combat strength was truly terrifying. He had fought fiercely against the legendary Six-Winged Angel with a top-tier martial soul—and had even defeated the Six-Winged Angel. Wasn't that absurd?

"Grand Worshipper, that man has returned. What should we do now? He left in search of the path to godhood and has now returned. Does that mean he might not have succeeded, so he chose to come back?"

An elder of Spirit Hall spoke at this time. He was also a Titled Douluo elder and a renowned scholar within Spirit Hall, someone who could be considered both accomplished in scholarship and martial prowess.

"What are you afraid of? No matter how powerful Tang Chen is, he's only one person. Can a level 99 Limit Douluo defeat so many Titled Douluo? Besides, our Grand Worshipper is also a Peerless Douluo and a Limit Douluo." Subduing Demon Douluo spoke at this time.

"I think that makes perfect sense. We can have Big Brother draw Tang Chen's fire head-on while everyone else attacks from the flanks and kills him."

Golden Crocodile Douluo said at this time.

"And let me speak frankly, Big Brother. The reason you lost to that guy back then was because you believed that running away would violate the way of the knight. You could have used your advantage in the sky. You could have defeated Tang Chen by attacking from the flanks, no matter how powerful his secret technique was.

"No matter how powerful his Ring Explosion was, it would have been useless as long as it couldn't hit you. Yet what happened? You still chose to confront him head-on. Wasn't it because you thought doing otherwise would lack knightly spirit? Don't you think that's ridiculous?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo naturally knew about the battle between Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen. Naturally, he also understood why his eldest brother, Qian Daoliu, had lost to someone with a top-tier martial soul despite possessing a supreme god-level martial soul like the Six-Winged Angel. Of course he knew why. It was that set of knightly principles that had bound Qian Daoliu.

(Note: Golden Crocodile Douluo seemed to be someone who had guided Tang Chen. The three Peerless Douluo came from the same era, so Golden Crocodile Douluo should be older than those three. However, because he was only level 98, he could only be the second brother. He should be older than Qian Daoliu.)

"Big Brother, is what Second Brother said true?" Subduing Demon Douluo looked at Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu in disbelief.

"Grand Worshipper, if you truly could have defeated that guy, why did you choose to fight him head-on because of those knightly principles? Isn't that just a hole in your brain?" Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan was truly dumbfounded at this moment. He could hardly believe what he had heard. Was it really that outrageous?

"Old Ghost, is that true?"

"How would I know? I hadn't even joined Spirit Hall back then."
