Upon hearing this, Tai Nuo frowned slightly, his back to the injured Tai Nuo, and asked, "Does she want us to repay her favor?"
Without Tang Yuehua, the Power Clan, who once served the Xingluo Empire, would have had a hard time establishing themselves in Tian Dou City.
The Spirit Hall and the Power Clan once fought a war because Tang Hao of the Clear Sky Sect seriously injured Qian Xunji, the Pope of the Spirit Hall.
The Power Clan is one of the four affiliated clans of the Haotian Sect.
In that battle, the Power Clan suffered heavy losses.
The Power Clan struggled on, awaiting support from the Xingluo Empire and the Haotian Sect. Instead, they received the devastating news that the Xingluo Empire had stood idly by and that the Haotian Sect had abandoned the four major clans and gone into seclusion.
Left with no other choice, the Power Clan and the other three major families unanimously decided to swear an oath using their family martial spirits, declaring that they and their families would have absolutely no connection with the Clear Sky Sect anymore. They would never again be affiliated with the Clear Sky Sect.
Thus, the Spirit Hall gave the four major families a way out.
Since being abandoned by the Haotian Sect, Tai Tan, who had originally intended to fight to the death, became disheartened and left the Xingluo Empire to which he was loyal, traveling thousands of miles to Tian Dou City, the capital of the Tian Dou Empire.
Because of their origins as members of the Power Clan, they faced ostracism from nobles and commoners after entering Tiandou City. It was Tang Yuehua who secretly helped the Power Clan.
Tai Tan remembered this kindness in his heart. He even considered that since he couldn't break his oath and get involved with the Clear Sky Sect...
However, he can be connected to the original owner, Tang Hao.
Tang Hao has been expelled from the Haotian Sect and is no longer a member. Going to find his master Tang Hao again would not be considered a violation of the oath they once made.
Especially when Tai Tan discovered that the Tiandou Empire was secretly connected with the Clear Sky Sect, his resolve became even stronger.
In the original storyline, Tai Tan, upon seeing Tang San for the first time, took the initiative to kneel down on one knee and acknowledge Tang San as his young master.
However, Tang Yuehua is now asking Tai Tan to repay this favor.
That's not the point.
The key point is that the person they want to kill is the grandson of Tuoba Xi, one of the four Platinum Bishops of the Spirit Hall.
Tai Nuo said matter-of-factly, "She has been kind to us, and we can't leave it unreturned. Killing that brat will also benefit us!"
"Foolish!"
Tai Tan clenched his right hand behind his back, while his other hand angrily pointed at Tai Nuo. "You killed Tuoba Yan, which is tantamount to inviting trouble. Our family will once again slide into the abyss."
"Father, the Tiandou Empire is not the Xingluo Empire. The Tiandou Empire will not stand idly by," Tai Nuo argued forcefully.
Tai Tan, exasperated, scolded, "It would have been one thing to secretly kill Tuoba Yan. But now that he's alive, I know Tuoba Xi's character; he won't let this go. He's just like me."
Tai Nuo retorted, "Tuoba Yan has no evidence whatsoever; I left no trace. Manager Aude died at his hands. The ones in trouble are Yuexuan and Haotian Sect. As long as we don't admit it, it has nothing to do with our Li Clan."
Tai Tan snorted and groaned, "Hmph, if only it were as you think. That old lizard is just like me, unreasonable and only cares about his own fists. I bet he'll come to punish our Power Clan in three days."
Tai Nuo recalled the calamities that had befallen the Power Clan, and finally, fear gripped him. He asked, "What should we do?"
Tai Nuo frowned slightly and said, "Don't worry, this is Tiandou City. You're right about one thing. I doubt the Spirit Hall would dare to attack us without any evidence. As long as they don't send Title Douluos or the Spirit Hall's army, I'm confident I can defeat that old lizard."
...
A water-based race.
Tuoba Yan returned to the room and took out Manager Aude's storage soul tool.
With a thought, he probed into the storage device with his spiritual power. Without the support of spiritual power, everything inside was taken out by Tuoba Yan.
"Crystal Card!"
"Property deed!"
"Gold Soul Coins!"
"antique!"
"Auspicious Cloud Crystal Peach!"
"And also, the women's clothing!"
Tuoba Yan's expression was strange. He picked up the clothes from the ground; a faint fragrance lingered on them.
"Could they be Tang Yuehua's clothes?"
The image of Tang Yuehua appeared in Tuoba Yan's mind.
The silver court dress, along with some underwear, all retained the same fragrance. It must have come from the same person.
Tang Yuehua is very well-maintained and looks like a girl in her early twenties. Especially her temperament.
Having been immersed in court etiquette and music for a long time, Tang Yuehua possessed an aura comparable to that of the Empress in the imperial palace, inspiring a strong desire to conquer her.
It's confirmed: the deceased Manager Aude had a secret crush on Tang Yuehua, the master of Yuexuan Pavilion.
With a thought, Tuoba Yan unleashed a purplish-black flame that enveloped the clothes, instantly incinerating them.
This is a fantastical sewer, and Tuoba Yan didn't have high hopes for Manager Aude's storage soul tool.
Of the several items, only the auspicious cloud crystal peach was beneficial to Tuoba Yan's cultivation.
Manager Aude was originally Yuexuan's dog. Out of respect for Tang Yuehua, His Highness Crown Prince Xue Qinghe gave Manager Aude a crystal peach when he left.
With a sweep of his hand across the ground, Tuoba Yan stored all the items on the ground into his storage soul tool.
Then, with a thought, he took out the prize from tonight's banquet—the Infinite War God Breastplate.
Touching the shimmering, iridescent breastplate of the God of War, a warm sensation spread through my hand.
The Wuji War God Armor is said to be a quasi-divine artifact.
It has six parts in total: breastplate, helmet, left leg, right leg, left hand, and right hand.
Like the Soul Bone, each part of it possesses a magical ability.
It is not a soul bone after all.
Obtaining it will not increase soul power or physical strength.
However, for ordinary Soul Masters, obtaining it would give them an extra trump card for survival.
If you're lucky enough to collect the entire set, you can activate the set's attributes. Its power is similar to a special soul skill gained from the complete fusion of all soul bones.
Tuoba Yan had heard of it.
Legend has it that this item belonged to the first Protector General, who helped the Tiandou Empire establish its empire.
Its six subsequent owners all achieved remarkable feats.
Until its sixth owner, when part of the armor was lost in battle, it rarely appeared in people's sight after that.
Legend has it that, after many twists and turns, the royal Xue family only preserved two of them.
If the current Tiandou Empire's royal family hadn't lacked a full set of armor, Xue Qinghe wouldn't have been foolish enough to use it as a prize for the Genius Exchange Tournament.
Even if Xue Qinghe were willing, His Majesty Xue Ye of the Tiandou Empire would still hold him accountable.
The process of a Douluo Continent artifact recognizing its master is very simple; it only requires a drop of blood.
If an object already has an owner, it is almost impossible to make it recognize another owner unless its owner is killed.
Tuoba Yan placed the breastplate on the ground, bit his finger, and dripped a drop of blood onto the breastplate.
A bright light emanated from the breastplate as it absorbed the blood. Then, the energy fluctuations emanating from the breastplate subsided. Without the detection of exceptional spiritual power, it would be difficult to discern that it was a defensive quasi-divine artifact.
Tuoba Yan was thrilled, his eyes gleaming, and he exclaimed in a low voice, "It's done!"
