Douluo Continent: Changing just one word ruined the entire character's persona.

Chapter 249 Tang San absorbs Tang Hao's soul bone, cutting off any possibility of Tang Hao's recovery.

Ye Lin returned alone to the room Tang Yuehua had prepared for her to cultivate.

Tang Yuehua then led Tang San to arrange a room for her.

The room she arranged for Tang San was very simple: a small living room, a bedroom of about ten square meters, and a small bathroom, with all the basic necessities provided.

This is the standard equipment for the third generation of disciples of the Haotian Sect.

This is completely incomparable to Ye Lin's setup.

Ye Lin is not a third-generation disciple of the Haotian Sect, and she is also Tang Yuehua's daughter, so her status is naturally much higher.

"Xiao San, I really want to go see your father," Tang Yuehua said with a sigh.

Tang San sighed softly.

"I was very sad when I first saw my dad's amputated limb. But then I thought about it and realized that maybe this way, he can be with my mom every day without any worries, which is the best thing for him."

"Let's go when you have time later. After all, it's quite far."

Tang Yuehua nodded.

"Alright, let's not talk about your father anymore. Let's talk about yourself. What are your plans now that you've returned to the sect?"

Tang San said, "My father hopes that I can pay my respects to my grandfather and then do as much as I can for the sect."

Tang Yuehua said, "The situation in the sect is very complicated now. From your father's perspective, the sect is divided into two factions."

"The faction led by your uncle believes that the fault in what happened back then was not your father's, but rather caused by the arrogance and domineering nature of the Spirit Hall. Although the Pope of the Spirit Hall is dead, your mother has also passed away. The Spirit Hall, relying on its powerful influence, put pressure on the Clear Sky Sect and sought to harm the sect, which is why we had no choice but to sever ties with your father."

"The other faction is led by the few remaining elders of the generation. They believe that your father acted without careful consideration and merged with a soul beast, which caused the later conflict, almost leading to a direct confrontation between the sect and the Spirit Hall, resulting in irreparable consequences. Furthermore, he angered your grandfather to death, which is unforgivable."

"The Tang Long and the others you met today all belong to your uncle's side. Tang Long is your uncle's adopted son from his cousin's side."

"He is the number one person in three generations."

Tang San's eyes gleamed with contemplation. "Aunt, are you telling me that my attempt to rejoin the clan will be obstructed by the sect elders?"

Tang Yuehua nodded.

"That's right. I'm afraid things won't go so smoothly tomorrow. Even if your father returns a piece of the soul bone, it will be difficult to gain their forgiveness."

"Second brother has left the sect again, drawing a clear line between himself and the sect. I'm afraid they won't easily allow you to return to the clan."

Tang San frowned slightly. "What will happen if the elders disagree?"

Tang Yuehua's face darkened. "The worst outcome would be expelling you from the sect and crippling your martial spirit. They might even use you as a pretext to find your father and hold him accountable for his past crimes."

"Of course, this is almost impossible. After all, my elder brother is the sect leader, and the elders have to give him some face."

"If I'm not mistaken, the elders will eventually compromise and expel you from the sect, forbidding you from recognizing yourself as a disciple of the Haotian Sect."

Tang San looked at Tang Yuehua.

"Then what should I do? Since you allowed me to come back, you must have already thought of a plan."

Tang Yuehua nodded. "Although the elders are old-fashioned, they always put the sect first. If you want to gain their recognition, you must first prove your strength to them, just like your uncle said."

"Conquer them with your strength. Then make some contributions to the sect. That way, they won't be able to object to your recognition of your ancestral lineage."

"The reason your uncle reminded you of the word 'tough' is to tell you that in our Haotian Sect, we always respond to force, not softness."

"Back then, your uncle and your father earned their positions in the sect entirely through fighting. They beat anyone who disagreed until they submitted, which is how they established their authority."

"When your eldest uncle returned to the sect to inherit the position of sect leader, the elders also had doubts because he had always been with your father. Your eldest brother defeated all the elders with his own strength, which is why he gained their unanimous approval and became the new sect leader of the Haotian Sect."

"Therefore, your process of recognizing your ancestors tomorrow will not be easy. You might as well be a little tougher and use your strength to prove that you have the ability to help the sect rebuild its glory."

Tang San slowly nodded. "Aunt, I understand." Tang Yuehua stood up.

"Then you should get some rest and conserve your energy. I still have some things to prepare. There will be a sect conference tomorrow morning, and your aunt will be watching your performance then."

After saying this, Tang Yuehua told Tang San that meals would be delivered by a special person and that she should get some rest.

"Is it tough?"

Tang San repeated the steps again, and only after confirming that no one was around did he take out a right arm spirit bone from his storage spirit tool.

This was precisely the piece of soul bone that Tang Hao possessed back then.

Although she said she absorbed it, she hasn't actually absorbed it yet.

If you insist on holding yourself accountable, then take out this piece of soul bone.

It's just lying, it's not a big deal.

If they don't pursue the matter, then she will absorb it.

This is a good opportunity to improve one's own strength.

Feeling the explosive power emanating from the soul bone,

Tang San nodded in satisfaction.

As expected of the Clear Sky Sect's inherited soul bone, its quality is excellent.

It's also a perfect match for the Haotian Hammer.

Tang San gripped the soul bone in his right hand and quickly drew it into his body.

A surging, explosive force rapidly squeezed into her body.

A sharp pain quickly shot through my right arm.

Tang San's face was contorted with rage, his teeth clenched and his resolve unwavering.

Although he already possessed over level 50 soul power, absorbing this soul bone was not easy.

"Haotian Hammer!"

When the phantom of the Clear Sky Hammer appeared, Tang San finally felt a little relieved.

[The plot has been successfully modified. Tang San absorbed the soul bone that Tang Hao had separated from his body, completely severing any possibility of Tang Hao's body recovering.]

[Reward Tang Hao with 10% of his original peak strength]

The system's voice faded,

A powerful force instantly descended upon Ye Lin's body.

That was an extremely powerful, explosive force.

Physical fitness has improved significantly.

She estimated that it had improved by about 30 percent compared to before.

"Is it that much of an improvement?"

"Could it be that my current strength is really that bad?"

"Or was Tang Hao's original strength just too great?"

[Tang Hao's original peak strength refers to his strength when he had just broken through to the Title Douluo level and used the Ring Explosion technique to completely shatter all nine rings.]

"Was Tang Hao this strong back then?"

"The ring-blasting technique is truly amazing."

"If Tang Hao, now a demigod, were to use the Exploding Ring again..."

That is it.

"Below level 100, I am invincible; above level 100, I'm one-for-one!"
