The Tang Household Never Let a Grudge Last Overnight
"It's only an hour's walk from here to Dangwu Village. We'll set off at 9 AM tomorrow." The man with the mustache frowned, looking at the black fire mark on his right hand, then glanced at the man with the goatee.
"This black flame is very strange. Although it is extremely hot, it did not burn my palm."
I'm afraid it will cause internal injuries to us. You and Lao San both had your right hands chopped off by that damned Tang Tiansong, so let's meditate and regulate our breathing for one night, and set off again tomorrow."
The man with the goat-horn beard and blue face nodded in agreement.
"Seniors, I'm going to hunt down Tang Miao to prevent him from reporting back." The masked man bowed.
So what if he went to report it?
Tang Miao was only at the Meridian Opening Sixth Layer Refining stage, and he was already injured.
"The remaining Tang Household cultivators are only at the Meridian Opening Fifth Layer Refining stage. How could the four of us at the Qi Refinement be afraid of them?" The man with the mustache looked furious.
"The three seniors are certainly not afraid of them, but we are worried that they might prepare some traps or tricks to hurt us, then we won't be happy," the masked male cultivator explained.
"That's right, senior brother. We suffered because Tang Tiansong knows some strange Cultivation Method called [Burning Life, Dream Unfinished]. We should be more careful." Goat-horned Beard touched his severed arm.
The monk with the mustache sighed softly, "Alright then. But this Tang Miao has some connection with the Buddhist Cultivation of Northern Province, so we absolutely mustn't kill him."
The masked man nodded in agreement and left, thinking to himself: These three foolish Golden Yang Gate disciples, do they even know what it means to nip things in the bud?
I, Liu Yidao, a mere Qi Refining First Layer cultivator, can definitely kill Tang Miao, a Meridian Opening Sixth Layer cultivator, and completely destroy the evidence without anyone noticing...
... At this moment, the Tang Household was brightly lit.
Cui Xueyong opened his sleepy eyes, raised his wine glass, and said expectantly, "Zimei, Brother Tiansong is currently in Iron Bridge Village presiding over Tang Jincan's wedding."
In a few days, Tiansong will be taking Tiandong to Divine Dragon Island to propose Long Household. When should we set a wedding date?
Tang Tianzi glared at Cui Mingfei, then pouted, "Tiandong, have you made up your mind?"
You don't want to marry Tong Lingling from the Tong Household, but you want to marry Long Zhiyu from the Long Household?
You'd better think this through; you'll be marrying into the Long Household as a live-in son-in-law.
Tang Tiandong nodded. "The arrow is on the bowstring, it has to be released. Long Zhiyu brought over her engagement invitation a couple of days ago."
"Hey, looks like this Long Zhiyu really likes you. It hasn't even proposed yet, and it's already brought its own engagement letter." Tang Tianzi chuckled.
"Zimei, I always carry my engagement letter with me; I prepared it five years ago." Cui Xueyong patted his pocket.
Tang Tianzi rolled her eyes and was about to speak when she saw Miao walk in, looking preoccupied.
The three women, "Mother," "Mother," and "Aunt," stood up.
Miao waved her hand, "Tianzi, Tiandong, I just had a nightmare about your eldest brother, and I'm feeling very uneasy..."
"Your eldest brother went to Iron Bridge Village and hasn't come back yet. Is he alright?"
"Auntie, is it dangerous for my Tiansong to be a wedding emcee?"
The Ye Household consists entirely of ordinary people, with only three guest cultivators at the Meridian Opening Second Layer.
My Tiansong is Qi Refinement cultivator. Not to mention in Iron Bridge Village, even in the entire northern and eastern Gazing Dragon Lake, apart from my Cui Household, he is a force to be reckoned with.
As for the other cultivation Lineage on the eastern slope of Gazing Dragon Lake and in the Dragon Breath Valley to the east, most of them also gave money as gifts to my Tiansong's engagement banquet last year, so they have no reason to harm my Tiansong."Cui Xueyong looked relaxed.
"Even so, I'm still a little uneasy." Miao frowned.
"Auntie, if you're really worried, Tiandong and I will head to Iron Bridge Village now to meet Tiansong." Cui Xueyong smiled helplessly.
"Ugh..."
A sound of crying came from behind.
Everyone looked over: Tang Tianshu walked in, wailing loudly.
"Tianshu, what's wrong?"
"Did you have a nightmare?" Tang Tianzi patted Tang Tianshu's head.
"No.
Third sister...
Waaah...
My older brother is dead!
"It was my elder brother at the Ye Household, who was killed by four Qi Refinement Second Layer Refining!" Tang Tianshu wailed.
Clang.
The teacup in her hand fell to the ground, Miao collapsed weakly to the ground.
"This Tianshu, don't talk nonsense." Tang Tianzi helped Miao up and glanced at Cui Xueyong.
Cui Xueyong understood, frowned, and walked outside the courtyard.
Tang Tianzi, with a soundproof shield on, said angrily, "Tianshu, listen to your third sister, don't cry. Why did you say that eldest brother is dead?"
Tang Pingan nodded, stopping his crying, but still choking back sobs, "I just went to Mystic Spoon Tower to see those three dragon egg fossils."
It was the Mystic Spoon Li Immortal who told me that my elder brother had died.
Tang Tianzi and Tang Tiandong stood frozen in place as if struck by lightning: Mystic Spoon Former Venerable said that their elder brother was dead, then their elder brother must really be dead.
Silently, Tang Tianzi took out a compass, muttered incantations, and tossed three copper coins onto the compass.
Tears welled in Tang Tianzi's eyes. She clung to Tang Tiandong's shoulder to keep from falling, sniffling, "Big brother, this is terrible."
"Big brother..." Tang Tiandong was about to burst into tears when his mother stopped him.
Miao picked up her nose and sniffed. "I am a mortal, I know nothing about cultivating immortality."
Your father is not home, and even if he were, he said he would not interfere with your path of cultivation.
Your eldest sister isn't home.
Ping An is rather naive and doesn't understand much about worldly affairs.
The Tianya and the Tianshu is still young.
Tiandong, your eldest brother is gone, so you are now the head of the Tang Household clan.
You and your third sister should have a good discussion about the next steps for the Tang Household. Remember, this is a critical time; be cautious and don't act on impulse.
Tang Tianzi removed the soundproof barrier, dismissed Tang Xingdou, and then reopened it. He looked at Tang Tiandong with a serious expression, "Clan leader, what should we do?"
"It's all my fault. If I had agreed to marry Tong Lingling, they definitely wouldn't have dared to harm my elder brother because of the Tong Household's power."
"But... who exactly wants to harm my Tang Household?" Tang Tiandong looked regretful.
"If I'm not mistaken, it's because of the great fortuitous opportunity that's about to descend upon the northern Gazing Dragon Lake..."
Tang Tiandong, let's not talk about the past.
"Now I'm asking you, what should we do?!" Tang Tianzi said angrily.
"Third sister, I... I really don't know what to do."
"I'll follow your arrangements..." Tang Tiandong pounded his head in anguish.
"Okay, since you're listening to me."
The Tang Household doesn't hold grudges overnight!
Let's go get our revenge now!
"Slaughter the Ye Household!" Tang Tianzi's face was filled with coldness.
"Can...
However, Mystic Spoon Immortal Venerable told the Tianshu that the four cultivators who killed his elder brother were Qi Refining Stage cultivators.
You are at the Meridian Opening Fifth Layer, while I am only at the Meridian Opening Fourth Layer.
If we go, wouldn't we be sending ourselves to our deaths?!
"My father used to say that you must never act on emotion," Tang Tiandong said, looking conflicted.
"Does that mean you know we're just going to our deaths and you're not going to avenge our brother?" Tang Tianzi asked angrily.
"Of course we should take revenge, but we need to wait, plan carefully, and be cautious." Tang Tiandong's face was flushed.
"Hmph, wait a minute?"
When will it be?
Waiting until the end of time?
Wait until the enemy runs away?
Or should we wait until the enemy comes knocking on our door?!
If we don't avenge our elder brother now, how will we face our father when he returns?!
"Tang Tiandong, I think you want to be the clan leader. I think you're just afraid of dying!" Tang Tianzi's eyes narrowed, his face full of anger.
"Sister, we're siblings, don't you know my personality? Do you think I'd be afraid of dying?"
My elder brother always told me to be careful and to protect the Tang Household.
Sister, thank you for scolding me and waking me up. I was really a bit lost just now.
Give me half an incense stick's time to think it over. After that, my sister and I will head towards Iron Bridge Village.
"To avenge my elder brother." Tang Tiandong's face was resolute and calm...
