"Xiao Bai" Ah Xiao (Part 2)

"Hmm?"

Sensing a chill between his legs, Tang Xiao could not help lowering his head to look.

He saw that his lower body had apparently been "accidentally" grazed by the Lionheart Scepter just now, leaving it completely exposed to the air.

His little bell was facing the Clear Sky Sect camp, while his buttocks faced the Spirit Hall camp. As for the forces watching from afar, they naturally got a full view from both sides.

Even with how suppressed Tang Xiao felt inside, his old face could not help turning red.

Hiss~

How embarrassing!

If the humiliation he had suffered before had merely been directed at his status as the Clear Sky Sect's leader and the Howling Sky Douluo, then this was a genuine insult to him as a person!

Damn Spirit Hall!

At that moment, Mighty Lion Douluo's airy voice came from behind him.

His words still carried across the entire venue—

"Sect Master Tang Xiao, I didn't expect you to be quite fair-skinned~"

"It's just... that thing seems a little small."

"Ha ha ha~"

As soon as those words were spoken, the people in the distant Spirit Hall camp could finally no longer hold it in and burst into laughter as well.

"HAHAHAHAHA..."

"So this is the Clear Sky Sect's leader?"

"Not even as good as mine."

"I heard he once fought his own younger brother over a wife. Do you think the reason he lost was because he was too small?"

"That's possible. Hey, no..."

"Maybe his younger brother's is small too!"

"They come from the same bloodline, after all."

"HAHAHAHA..."

Tang Xiao was humiliated to the point of wanting to die. He could not help closing his eyes and roaring in his heart once more:

Damn Spirit Hall...

They actually used such lowly tactics.

They're absolute bastards! AHHHHH!

What made him even more despairing was that he was facing the Clear Sky Sect head-on.

So that extremely embarrassing thing of his had been completely displayed before his relatives, friends, brothers, sisters, and everyone else.

To the point that even faint murmurs could be heard from the Clear Sky Sect's side.

Though the voices were quiet, how could someone of his cultivation possibly fail to hear them?

Ah!

No matter how violently Tang Xiao's emotions churned within, outwardly, he could only maintain the posture of punishing himself with his eyes closed.

Anyone paying close attention would soon notice that the speed at which he controlled the Lionheart Scepter had increased considerably.

He only wanted it to end sooner.

Then he could immediately tuck that embarrassing thing of his back into his trousers.

Outside the arena.

Yu Luomian could not help making a few teasing remarks at the sight, then turned to Ning Fengzhi and asked:

"This is what you meant by 'not necessarily'? Breaking before rebuilding?"

"This..."

Ning Fengzhi's expression had darkened somewhat as well.

With his usual composure, he normally would not let his emotions show on his face.

Unless he truly could not help it.

Like now. He had genuinely never expected Spirit Hall to pull something like this on such an occasion.

Hiss~ It was simply terrifying!

At the same time, Ning Fengzhi's heart sank slightly.

Perhaps the Clear Sky Sect was truly in for it this time. Spirit Hall's objective went far beyond this...

My brothers in arms...

Sigh!

Finally.

The most agonizing period for Tang Xiao came to an end.

After striking himself a full two hundred times with the Lionheart Scepter, he immediately took out a set of long robes from his Soul Tool and put them on. Then, almost instinctively, he wanted to hurl the Lionheart Scepter directly at Mighty Lion Douluo.

But he did not.

He was afraid.

Afraid that his impulsive action would accidentally violate some Spirit Hall regulation again, such as disrespecting a Worshipper or something.

Thus, Tang Xiao used Soul Power to control the Lionheart Scepter and fly it into his hand. Then he slowly walked up to Mighty Lion Douluo and held it out to him.

Mighty Lion Douluo casually took it and did not make things difficult for him any further.

Tang Xiao quickly returned to the Clear Sky Sect camp.

Afterward, he temporarily did not dare meet the strange looks of those around him. Instead, he stared straight at Bibi Dong and continued their earlier topic, promising:

"The Clear Sky Sect will spread word across the continent. Though Tang Hao has already severed ties with the sect, if he causes any trouble outside, the sect will bear full responsibility."

"Mm, remember to make it clear."

Bibi Dong, who had just opened her eyes, nodded slightly.

Then.

Before everyone's eyes, she was about to raise her fourth finger...

"Saintess."

At that moment, the Clear Sky Sect's Grand Elder hurriedly spoke to stop her. Seemingly afraid that he too would be charged with "disrespecting the Pope," he quickly clasped his hands in salute before continuing:

"That bastard Tang Hao truly has nothing to do with us anymore. Please show mercy, Saintess!"

"Oh, really?"

"Really, truly!"

"What if he voluntarily returns to your Clear Sky Sect in the future?"

"This..."

The Grand Elder instinctively glanced at Tang Xiao, then his gaze abruptly became firm.

"If that bastard dares return, we will personally tie him up and deliver him to the Pope's Palace!"

"But I also heard that he now has a child. If his child, Sect Master Tang Xiao's nephew, returns to the Clear Sky Sect in the future, would you accept him?"

Bibi Dong suddenly brought it up again.

"What if that child is also exceptionally talented?"

"Saintess, one should not implicate a person's family..."

"Stop giving this Saintess so much nonsense. Just tell me directly: yes or no."

"...We will not accept him. If that little bastard insists on causing trouble, we will tie him up and send him to the Pope's Palace as well!"

Future Tang San: 6

"Hmph~"

Bibi Dong neither confirmed nor denied it, then looked at Tang Xiao, who had calmed down somewhat.

"What do you think, Sect Master Tang Xiao?"

"I..."

Tang Xiao's gaze wandered. Meeting the looks from the surrounding elders urging him to "play along" and "endure," he ultimately nodded heavily.

"I guarantee in the name of the Clear Sky Sect's leader that we will never accept Tang Hao or his descendants back into the clan!"

"I'll believe you for now."

With that, Bibi Dong finally lowered the jade hand that had left countless people both inside and outside the venue trembling in fear.

But was the story over just like that?

Of course not.

Bibi Dong continued:

"Let us put Tang Hao's matter aside for now. But after saying so much, it is still far from enough to dispel Spirit Hall's grief and indignation over the Pope's death. Next, it is time to settle the grudges between Spirit Hall and your Clear Sky Sect over all these years!"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Clear Sky Sect camp changed expression at once.

It was over. The big one was coming...

"Saintess, we have already severed ties with Tang Hao."

One of the Clear Sky Sect elders was just about to explain.

"That is now."

But Bibi Dong directly waved a hand and cut him off.

"Back when the villain Tang Hao committed his monstrous crime and blasted our Spirit Hall's Pope to death, you had not yet severed ties with him."

"Therefore, as the sect that cultivated him into such a vile person, the Clear Sky Sect naturally cannot evade responsibility."

"Don't say that I am being unreasonable..."

"Guards!"
