Tang San was somewhat stunned. He never expected that in less than two years since he left the Clear Sky Sect, the situation on the Douluo Continent had changed so drastically.
"Aunt, what is the purpose of the Alliance?" Tang San asked.
Tang Yuehua smiled and said, "The purpose is, of course, to maintain the peace and stability of the Douluo Continent, and at the same time, to eliminate the Spirit Hall. The existence of the Spirit Hall is a huge threat to all the countries and sects on the continent. They possess powerful Martial Soul and influence, and are constantly expanding their power, attempting to control the entire continent. The Alliance was established to resist their ambitions."
Tang San nodded silently. He could sense the seriousness and earnestness in Tang Yuehua's words. He couldn't help but hesitate. The Clear Sky Sect was now facing the threat of war.
" Xiao San, you don't need to worry too much. What you need now is to adapt slowly and calm your killing intent. I heard from Brother Hao that your grandfather back then has already embarked on the legendary path to godhood. You will be the future hope of our Clear Sky Sect." Tang Yuehua saw Tang San's hesitation and said softly.
"Aunt, I understand." Tang San nodded silently.
Tang Yuehua smiled and said, "Good child, your aunt believes in you. You have outstanding talent and strength, and you will definitely be able to play your role in future wars."
Tang San nodded silently. His mind was in turmoil; he hadn't figured out what the future held. But one thing he was certain of: he would not allow his family or sect to suffer any harm.
Tang Yuehua turned to look at the lake, sighed softly, and said, "I wonder how long these peaceful days can last."
Tang Yuehua turned around, glanced at Tang San indifferently, and said, "War is the cruelest thing in this world."
"Aunt, is there no way to avoid war?" Tang San asked.
Ning Fengzhi remained silent for a moment before speaking, "War is cruel, but sometimes it is necessary. If we can seize the initiative in war, we can reduce many unnecessary sacrifices. The Spirit Hall harbors wolfish ambitions; the significance of the Alliance is to overthrow the Spirit Hall and restore a peaceful Soul Master World for all Soul Master."
At this point, Ning Fengzhi looked at Tang San and said, "And you, Xiao San, you are the hope for overthrowing the Spirit Hall in the future."
"Yes, Sect Master Ning is right, Xiao San, you are the hope of our Clear Sky Sect."
A figure appeared before Tang San; it was Tang Hao.
"Dad!"
Looking at Tang Hao in front of him, Tang San felt an indescribable emotion welling up inside him. He rushed forward and hugged Tang Hao.
Tang Hao gently patted his shoulder and said, "I've already sensed your killing intent. With your aunt here, none of this is a problem. What you need to do now is improve your strength. Our Clear Sky Sect's goal is to protect our families and sect, and to maintain peace and stability on the Douluo Continent."
Tang San nodded silently. He could sense Tang Hao's seriousness and earnestness. He knew that his responsibility was heavy, and he couldn't allow himself or his family to suffer any harm.
Tang Hao smiled and said, "You must trust your aunt and Sect Master Ning; they are both doing this for your own good."
Tang San nodded silently. He knew that Tang Hao's words were all for his own good. He couldn't let them down; he had to use his strength and wisdom to protect his family and sect.
" Sect Master Ning, the Spirit Hall has made another move. The Alliance needs your decision," Tang Hao said, turning to Ning Fengzhi.
"What?" Ning Fengzhi's expression changed slightly, and his brows furrowed.
Tang Hao nodded and said, " The Spirit Hall launched a large-scale operation against the Soul Master in the border region of the Star Luo Empire, and several Alliance Soul Master teams have already been wiped out. The Alliance has now dispatched Soul Master to handle the matter, but they have not found any trace of the Spirit Hall."
Ning Fengzhi a deep breath and said in a deep voice, " The Spirit Hall's strength has become so great that it has been able to infiltrate the empire's borders silently. This is truly beyond my expectations."
Tang Yuehua frowned and said, "Although the Spirit Hall is powerful, it's impossible for them to infiltrate the empire's border regions in such a short time. This incident is likely due to someone colluding with us from within, leaking the Alliance's operational plans."
Tang Hao nodded and said, "I have the same suspicion, but we haven't found any evidence yet. However, no matter what, we must take action and exact our revenge on the Spirit Hall."
Ning Fengzhi pondered for a moment and said, "In that case, let's return the favor to the Spirit Hall this time."
"Let's go to the council hall to discuss this in detail," Ning Fengzhi said slowly.
"Good."
Tang Hao and Ning Fengzhi left together and headed to the council hall of the Clear Sky Sect, leaving only Tang San and Tang Yuehua behind. Tang Yuehua looked at Jun Yi with lingering affection, as if she were watching her lover leave.
"Auntie, do you like Uncle Ning?"
Tang Yuehua was startled by Tang San's question, her face flushing slightly. She asked, "How did you come up with this question?" Tang San smiled slightly and said, "Aunt, I can see that you like Uncle Ning, and he likes you too. Although there are some barriers between you, if you can overcome them, perhaps there will be a new beginning."
Tang Yuehua silently watched Tang San, her heart in turmoil. She didn't know how to face her feelings. She knew her responsibilities were heavy, and she couldn't let her emotions affect the important affairs of the sect and the Alliance. " Xiao San, you know so much."
Tang San smiled and said, "Auntie, matters of the heart are only natural. If you truly love Uncle Ning, then you should bravely pursue your happiness. As for other things, we can take our time."
When Ning Fengzhi arrived at the council hall, the representatives of the two empires were already there. Upon seeing Ning Fengzhi, they all showed expressions of relief. However, there was one person whose brows remained furrowed, and he did not appear particularly happy.
That person is Yu Xiaogang, now the strategist of the Alliance.
Since the Alliance was founded,
Although Yu Xiaogang is nominally the strategist in the Alliance, in reality, his role is more like that of a diplomat. He is responsible for communicating and coordinating with various forces. When a real problem arises, everyone's first thought is usually to Ning Fengzhi to solve it.
As Ning Fengzhi entered the council hall, everyone automatically took their seats on both sides. Ning Fengzhi's gaze fell on Yu Xiaogang, and he seemed to be able to sense the inner conflict and anxiety in Yu Xiaogang's heart.
Upon seeing Ning Fengzhi, Yu Xiaogang managed a weak smile before saying in a deep voice, " Sect Master Ning, I believe we cannot simply retaliate against the Spirit Hall's operation this time. We need to find their weaknesses and solve the problem at its root."
