Douluo Continent: The Ten Kings of Hell, I am the Emperor of the Underworld

Chapter 164 The Ancestor is Back! The Haotian Sect is Full of Scoundrels?

"Stop it."

"Damn it, how can a person be so arrogant?"

"What do you take our Haotian Sect for?"

Upon discovering that the "intruder" was only one person, and not even the Spirit Hall they both hated and feared, the elders of the Clear Sky Sect felt they could finally stand up for themselves.

Before the people even arrived, the Haotian Hammers were already being swung.

"That's it? You bunch of good-for-nothings, after all these years, this is still all you've got?"

Tang Chen, also wielding the Clear Sky Hammer and surrounded by nine soul rings, met the Clear Sky Hammers of the five elders with a giant hammer.

"Impossible? How could it be the Clear Sky Hammer?"

"Could he be Tang Hao? But didn't Tang Hao die in Wuhun City?"

Tang Chen had been away from the sect for many years, but these elders couldn't possibly have completely forgotten him. However, Tang Chen's face was covered in a scarlet blood, making it difficult to discern his exact appearance.

Tang Xiao, however, seemed to remember something, and his expression suddenly changed.

"Don't do it, he is..."

Tang Xiao was too late. The six Haotian Hammers had already collided. Although it was five against one, the five Haotian Hammers, working together, crumbled almost instantly upon contact.

"Pfft~"

The sounds of vomiting blood rose and fell, and all five titled Douluo elders were injured, and not just slightly.

"Who...who exactly are you?" the Seventh Elder asked in shock.

How could someone of the Haotian Sect with such strength remain unknown?

The Second Elder wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, squinted and carefully examined Tang Chen. Suddenly, he shuddered, as if he had seen something extremely unbelievable.

"Are you the grandfather?"

Tang Xiao then asked the question.

Tang Chen still held his head up, glancing at Tang Xiao out of the corner of his eye, looking arrogant and irritating.

"You've improved a little, kid, but where's your father? Where the hell is he?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Xiao finally confirmed Tang Chen's identity.

"Grandfather, you..." Tang Xiao was excited but also a little confused.

"Are you also a wandering spirit? You don't seem like one."

Tang Chen has been missing for so many years, and the entire Haotian Sect has long assumed that he is dead. Moreover, the Haotian Sect has experienced the return of the spirit of their ancestor, so it is perfectly normal for them to suspect that Tang Chen is a ghost.

In particular, Tang Chen's body was always shrouded in a faint bloody light. Although it was different from the ghosts that had appeared before, it didn't seem like a normal person either.

"Wandering souls? Bah! Even if you useless little beasts die, I, your ancestor, will not die. Are you all cursing me to die?"

Tang Chen was furious again, and he seemed about to raise the Haotian Hammer in his hand once more.

"Can you please stop going crazy? Are you trying to kill them?"

Soul Tang San expressed his dissatisfaction with Rakshasa God.

He knew Rakshasa God was unreliable, but he never expected him to be this unreliable.

He's beaten so many disciples, and now he's even beating up the elders.

"What do you know? This is my method of managing subordinates. Being capricious is what makes people fear me, and it's especially effective against these guys from the Haotian Sect."

Seeing that Tang Chen was about to make a move again, several elders quickly surrounded him, knelt down, and dared not say anything more about the dead souls.

"Sect Master, you're finally back! You have no idea how much our Haotian Sect has declined since you left, and we've suffered a great calamity!" Several old men with white hair and beards cried so bitterly that anyone who didn't know better would think they had lost their own father.

They had no complaints about being beaten and their village being destroyed, and dared not complain that Tang Chen had hit them too hard.

"See? I told you these cheapskates fall for this, didn't I?"

Half of Rakshasa God's soul said smugly to Tang San.

Tang San:……

Tang San fell silent. This actually works? Could it be that the people of the Clear Sky Sect are really as Rakshasa God said, all of them shameless bastards who never learn from their mistakes?
Having nothing to say, Tang San simply remained silent.

The Rakshasa God smiled smugly again.

Tang Chen raised a foot and kicked several elders away.

"A bunch of good-for-nothings. When I was here, who dared to mess with the Clear Sky Sect? Even the Spirit Hall didn't dare to touch me. Who knew that in the short time I've been gone, you've ruined the sect like this, even losing our ancestral land. You've utterly disgraced me."

"Ancestor, please calm down. It's not that we didn't try, but the Spirit Hall is just too strong. Moreover, you've been gone for decades. Without you as our support, the Clear Sky Sect is like a body without a backbone."

Despite being kicked around without any dignity, these elderly elders, who were almost in their coffins, still knelt down again without complaint, crying as they explained.

After all, Tang Chen has always been domineering, although he seems to be even more domineering and unreasonable now, and he doesn't care about their dignity.

But they thought it was only right. After all, their ancestor was renowned throughout the world. How could he not be angry when he saw his disciples and grand-disciples being so disappointing, being driven to the mountains, and even losing the sect's territory?
"Hmph, in the end, you're all just trash."

Tang Chen continued to point his finger and curse.

"Grandfather, where have you been all these years?"

Tang Xiao felt a mix of emotions as he watched these elders, who usually flaunted their seniority and seniority in front of him, become so docile, obedient, and even fawning.

Seeing that Tang Chen wasn't targeting him too much, Tang Xiao was secretly pleased.

However, since the one kneeling on the ground was an elder, he stepped in to smooth things over.

"Where did he go? He went to find a way to become a god. What about Tang Wei? I handed the Haotian Sect over to him, and this is what happened?"

"Oh right, what about Ahao? He's the most talented among my juniors, much better than a good-for-nothing like you. What level is he at now?"

Tang Xiao and the elders were speechless for a moment.

From which remote mountain valley did our ancestor emerge? How come he doesn't even know these things? Has he gone mad with the desire to become a god?

Tang Xiao felt an overwhelming pang of sorrow.

He thought Tang Chen didn't scold him immediately because he cared about his grandson. He didn't expect Tang Chen to only remember Tang Hao and belittle him to nothing, which Tang Xiao found hard to accept.

After all, the great disaster that befell the Haotian Sect was caused by Tang Hao, yet he was the one who supported the Haotian Sect all along, and was still accused of being a disappointment.

“Grandfather, father and Ahao... they have all passed away.”

Tang Xiao said in a dry voice.

"Dead? Awei was born with superhuman strength, and his talent was so-so. I'm still alive, how could he be dead? Ahao too, his talent is second only to mine, who killed him?"

Tang San was utterly speechless.

They were also amazed by Rakshasa God's acting talent. This madman really had something. Even though he knew something all along, he could still act as if he knew nothing at all.

The Haotian Sect disciples who had been casually knocked away by Tang Chen also gathered around, including a few who were seriously injured, and they walked over tremblingly.

They all heard Tang Xiao and the others address Tang Chen, and knew that he was the previous sect leader who had been missing for so many years, but unexpectedly, he had returned at this time.

“Grandfather, let’s go up the mountain to the main peak. I will tell you everything that has happened in the Haotian Sect over the years.”

"Alright, grandson, lead the way."

Tang Xiao's lips twitched. He calls Tang Hao "Ah Hao" affectionately, but calls me "grandson." Is that fair?
