The elders only learned from Tang Xian's message that Tang Yuehua had returned to the Sect with a young man. They rushed to Tang Xiao's residence and overheard fragments of Tang San's identity. Harboring resentment towards Tang Hao, they immediately pushed open the door to oppose Tang San learning the Haotian Secret Skill.
Now, hearing the news Tang Yuehua brought back, they couldn't care less about Tang San's trivial matter.
"Can we confirm it was the Spirit Hall who did it?"
While the elders were in shock, the leading White-Haired Elder asked with a grave expression.
Tang Xiao understood what the other party was thinking and laid out his speculation in full.
"Although no one witnessed the Spirit Hall's attack, who else in the entire continent has the ability to silently erase the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Strength Clan from the world overnight besides the Spirit Hall?"
After a moment of contemplation, the fiery Seventh Elder Tang Lie turned to look at the White-Haired Elder again.
"Second Brother, it seems that the Spirit Hall's target is likely all the Sects on the continent, and our Clear Sky Sect will also be their target. Should we fight them?"
"That's right, regardless of whether the Spirit Hall will attack the Clear Sky Sect , we must be prepared and not entrust the lives of the entire Sect to the Spirit Hall's mercy."
"But it's impossible to directly fight the Spirit Hall. Put away your little thoughts."
The Second Elder obviously agreed with Tang Lie's speculation that the Spirit Hall would attack the Clear Sky Sect , but it was impossible for him to lead the Sect disciples to confront the Spirit Hall directly. The Seventh Elder's eldest son died in a battle with the Spirit Hall decades ago, and he understood the other party's desire for revenge at all times. He glared fiercely at Tang Lie, causing him to retreat to the side with a smile.
"Sect Master, we must take action, we can't just sit and wait for death."
"But we are now in a remote corner. Besides strengthening the Sect's defense, what else can we do?"
Tang Xiao had obviously considered this issue, but the response they could make was very limited. After all, the entire continent was about to forget them. If one day the Clear Sky Sect was also destroyed by the Spirit Hall, most casual cultivators might wonder which family the Clear Sky Sect was.
Hearing this, the Second Elder did not agree with Tang Xiao's statement.
"Sect Master, the Upper Three Sects are not only the Clear Sky Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."
The Second Elder's words also made everyone present's eyes light up, including Tang Xiao, but his expression soon became lost again.
"We know the Spirit Hall's ambition, doesn't the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect understand? They must also be busy strengthening their own Sect's defenses, how could they possibly support the Clear Sky Sect ?"
"It is obviously unrealistic to directly ask Ning Fengzhi to send people to assist in guarding the Clear Sky Sect , but we can make an agreement with them that if either side is attacked by the Spirit Hall, the other side must provide full support. I think that even if the Spirit Hall is strong, it is impossible to attack the Clear Sky Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect at the same time."
The Second Elder explained his considerations in detail, which won the continuous nods of everyone present, except for Tang San and his aunt. Tang San was because he had had many unpleasant experiences with Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu, and Tang Yuehua was purely because she had not yet had time to reveal that the other three Single Attribute Sects had already submitted to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Tang Xiao also saw his sister's hesitation and asked:
"Yuehua, if you have anything to say, just say it. Maybe it's useful information?"
Tang Xiao's words also made the elders turn their attention to Tang Yuehua. They still had a good impression of this former Sect Master's daughter who had been helping the Clear Sky Sect , and did not involve her in their resentment towards Tang Hao.
"Alas, the elders don't know, after the Strength Clan was destroyed, the other three clans were in danger and soon contacted Ning Fengzhi to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Now they have moved their clan lands near Seven Treasure City."
"This"
"Unreasonable, it is said that the Upper Three Sects are connected, how could Ning Fengzhi take advantage of the fire? Why should he accept our Clear Sky Sect 's former affiliated Sects?"
Tang Lie hammered the table in front of him, very dissatisfied with the defection of the three Single Attribute Sects. Did these guys forget the Clear Sky Sect 's past care?
"Hey, Old Seven, don't say such things anymore. We were the ones who were sorry to those three families first. It's understandable that they would make this choice, after all, the lives of thousands of clansmen are at stake."
The Second Elder sighed deeply, a sense of loss of people leaving and tea cooling arose spontaneously, but he quickly restrained his emotions and turned his attention back to Tang Xiao.
"Sect Master, you can use the three major families as an excuse to meet with Ning Fengzhi, saying that we will not care about the affairs of the three clans, in order to promote this alliance."
Hearing this, although Tang Lie was indignant, he had no better solution and could only sit aside in silence, which was regarded as tacitly supporting the Second Elder's decision.
Tang Xiao nodded. Now that the Clear Sky Sect was isolated and helpless, it really needed a reliable ally. The reputations of Sword and Bone were still very reassuring.
"I understand, I will immediately send someone to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to meet Ning Fengzhi and explain our intentions."
After deciding to ally with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Tang Xiao turned the topic back to his nephew.
"Elders, as you all know, the current situation is precarious. I hope you can temporarily put aside your hatred for Hao and accept Xiao San."
"You don't know, Xiao San is a genius with Twin Spirits and innate full Soul Power. If he can grow up smoothly, he will definitely become the top force in our Clear Sky Sect against the Spirit Hall."
In the conversation just now, Tang Xiao had already learned about Tang San's extraordinary talent, but he did not reveal the situation of being framed and his Spirit being half-crippled. It was better to let the elders covet Xiao San's talent and accept him for the time being.
Speaking of this, Tang San's aunt looked at the elders who could decide her fate with three parts expectation in her apprehensive eyes.
The elders also swept their horrified gazes towards Tang San.
"Is what the Sect Leader said true?"
"How could I joke about this? Xiao San's other Spirit is the Blue Silver Grass inherited from his mother."
"Blue Silver Grass?"
"Isn't that a useless Spirit?"
Hearing a few people belittling their nephew's Spirit, Tang Yuehua and her brother immediately defended him.
"Elders, Xiao San's mother is my sworn Third Sister. I couldn't be more clear about her abilities. She was able to cultivate to the Soul Emperor realm in her twenties. The Spirit she passed on to Xiao San must not be ordinary Blue Silver Grass, otherwise how could it be Twin Spirits with the Clear Sky Hammer in the same person?"
"That's right, elders, Xiao San's talent is very strong. Now he is only 16 years old and already has a cultivation far beyond the Soul King, but he just hasn't had time to absorb the Fifth Spirit Ring."
Their words made the elders silent again. Obviously, the scale in their hearts had begun to slowly tilt. After a while, the Second Elder took the lead and opened his mouth.
"Alright, the situation is urgent now, we should also temporarily put aside our hatred and work together to fight the enemy. We will no longer ask about the matter of Tang Hao's son, and leave it entirely to the Sect Leader to handle. Tang San will also be handed over to you to cultivate from now on."
"I will, thank you elders for not remembering the past, I will also send someone to the continent to look for news of Hao. His crime will be washed away by fighting against the Spirit Hall, I think the elders should have no objection."
