Douluo Continent: Starting from Tianshui Academy

Chapter 237 The Haotian Sect and the Heaven Dou Empire Form an Alliance

Tang Xiao disguised himself and followed Tang Yuehua away from Haotian Sect, heading towards Tiandou City.

"Why!…"

Tang Xiao sighed deeply, only now feeling free. These years of being confined to the Haotian Sect were like being in prison, especially since the Haotian Sect was built on the top of a snow mountain, a harsh and cold place, and life was really too hard.

"Brother, you haven't left the sect for many years, have you?"

Looking at her elder brother, whose figure was still tall and imposing, but whose temples were already gray, Tang Yuehua felt a pang of sadness.

"To be precise, I haven't been on the mainland for almost ten years. Everything has changed, and the world has become so different that I hardly recognize it anymore."

"Yuehua, why does Brother Hao grit his teeth with hatred whenever he mentions that boy named Ye Liangchen?"

Tang Xiao was very curious about Tang Hao's suggestion that he use the power of the empire to destroy Ye Liangchen and the Tianshui Sect.

"I don't know the specifics either. I heard that Yu Xiaogang once brought Tang San to contact Ye Liangchen, probably trying to get the method of martial soul evolution from that boy. In the end, they offended him."

Tang Yuehua analyzed the situation and admitted that she was also envious of the method for evolving a martial soul, but the person in question was protected by a group of titled Douluo, making it impossible for outsiders to obtain.

"Ugh! That good-for-nothing from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan has become a master of farting. Tang San's depravity is probably due to being led astray by that good-for-nothing since childhood. He's a complete scoundrel, so despicable."

Tang Xiao was furious when he heard that everything was caused by that good-for-nothing Yu Xiaogang.

"Big brother, a while ago, second brother brought Xiao San to me and said that this year's Soul Master Finals was a trap set by Bibi Dong specifically for second brother. Xiao San's Shrek team only played one match on the finals stage, and received byes in all the other matches. They were carried all the way to the finals and were finally defeated by the Tianshui team led by Ye Liangchen."

"The girl Xiao San liked was named Xiao Wu. She was a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form, but her soul beast identity was exposed on the final arena and she was captured by Bibi Dong... When Second Brother came to the rescue, his right hand and left leg were broken by a mysterious powerhouse, and his sect's inherited soul bone was also stolen by Bibi Dong. He could only flee in panic with Xiao San. In the end, Ye Liangchen said a lot of things to Xiao Wu, and the little girl was willing to sacrifice herself to him."

"The mistress said that the mastermind behind all of this might be that young man, Ye Liangchen. I don't know if it's true or not?"

Tang Yuehua told Tang Xiao about what happened at the Soul Master Grand Finals more than half a year ago.

"Tang San has already fallen into demonic ways and even hates his own sect. How much of what he says can be trusted?"

"The father and son share the same hobby: they both love 100,000-year-old transformed soul beasts. What a misfortune for our family!"

"Since Brother Hao knew that Xiao Wu was a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form, why did he still let her go on an adventure to the Spirit Hall with Xiao San?"

Tang Xiao couldn't understand why Tang Hao would send Xiao Wu to the Spirit Hall when he clearly knew she was a 100,000-year-old soul beast. Wasn't that just sending her to her death?

"I heard that Ye Liangchen seemed to have known all along that Xiao Wu was a 100,000-year-old soul beast. He even scolded that little girl for being brainless and following Tang San to Wuhun City to court death. He also said that Second Brother had been watching Xiao Wu since she entered Notting Academy. The reason he let Xiao Wu go to Wuhun City with Tang San was to take advantage of Xiao Wu's feelings for Tang San and then make that soul beast sacrifice itself for Tang San."

"After hearing Ye Liangchen's words, Xiao Wu willingly sacrificed herself, probably because she felt deceived and was filled with despair!"

Tang Yuehua told Tang Xiao what happened at the finals. As for whether it was true or not, she didn't know, but thinking about it, it should be true. Otherwise, why would that 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast be willing to sacrifice itself for Ye Liangchen?

"Sigh! This Hao, he has already suffered a tragic event himself, yet he still insists on letting the tragedy happen to his own child."

Tang Xiao was increasingly disappointed with Tang Hao's questionable actions, and this series of events was probably the reason for Tang San's downfall!

"In the past two years, my second brother has been known as Hammer Douluo on the mainland. I heard that Ye Liangchen gave him this nickname, saying that he was not worthy of the title Haotian Douluo at all, and that this title belonged only to our grandfather. Moreover, my second brother has accepted it. Now, many people in the Heaven Dou Empire are secretly calling my second brother Hammer Douluo."

Tang Yuehua was very disappointed with what Tang Hao had done over the past few years, and he felt like a complete stranger to her, not at all like the second brother she remembered.

Recalling the time when her second brother took the pregnant Ah Yin to Wuhun City, Tang Yuehua had a bold guess in her mind: her second brother did it on purpose, in order to plot the Blue Silver Emperor's 100,000-year soul ring.

Previously, Tang Yuehua admired her second brother so much that she would never have thought about it in this way. But now that she is disappointed in Tang Hao, she has become more clear-headed and has started to notice some unusual suspicious points.

Tang Yuehua dared not tell her older brother her guess, fearing that he would not be able to accept it in time.

He genuinely liked Ah Yin back then, but as the older brother, he didn't want to compete with his younger brother for her soul ring. If he knew that his younger brother had schemed to get Ah Yin's soul ring, he would probably question his existence.

"My second brother is indeed unworthy of the title of Haotian Douluo. To be precise, we, the younger generation, are not qualified to inherit our grandfather's name at all."

Tang Xiao also agreed with Ye Liangchen's words. His younger brother could only be a Hammer Douluo, like a club, ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth, and often courted death, causing great trouble for the sect. Now he has finally crippled himself, lost the strength of a Title Douluo, and can no longer jump around.

After listening to Tang Yuehua recount these events, Tang Xiao understood why Tang Hao had been locking himself in his room and drinking alone for the past six months. It turned out he had been doing so many shameful things.

Oh! What a terrible thing!

Tang Xiao didn't want to inquire any further about what else Tang Hao had done, lest he cause himself unnecessary trouble.

Two days later, Tang Yuehua arrived in Tiandou City with her elder brother Tang Xiao. They rested at Yuexuan for a day before planning to find Crown Prince Xue Qinghe and request an audience with Emperor Xue Ye.

"Young Master, Tang Yuehua has brought a Title Douluo to the Crown Prince's residence."

On this day, Qian Renxue was pondering a problem in the Crown Prince's residence when suddenly, the Serpent Spear Douluo quietly sent her a message.

"A Titled Douluo?"

Qian Renxue was taken aback. Tang Yuehua brought a Title Douluo to the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace. Could it be that the other party was a member of the Haotian Sect?

"Be careful, everyone. Judging from the aura of the opponent, he is a Super Douluo, possibly Tang Xiao, one of the Haotian Twin Stars."

"Shelong, porcupine, if a fight breaks out, we'll hold them back, and you two should take Xiaoxue away from the palace as soon as possible."

At this moment, Qianjun Douluo gave some instructions to Snake Spear and Porcupine, and then the two brothers hid in the shadows, ready to fight at any time.

"Your Highness, Tang Yuehua has arrived at the residence and requests an audience with you."

A moment later, a maid rushed in anxiously and told Xue Qinghe.

"understood."

Xue Qinghe said something indifferently, then got up and walked towards the Crown Prince's reception room, wanting to see what Tang Yuehua was doing bringing a Title Douluo with her.

Snake Spear and Porcupine Cone concealed their auras, disguising themselves as Xue Qinghe's guards, and followed behind. After all, the newcomer was a Title Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect, and the two could not be careless. If they were exposed, they could take the opportunity to escape with their young master. In any case, Young Master Ye had previously stated that the Spirit Hall's plan to usurp the country was a stupid mission and there was no need to continue it.

"Aunt Yuehua." Upon arriving at the reception room, Xue Qinghe greeted Tang Yuehua.

"Your Highness, let me introduce you. This is my elder brother, Tang Xiao, a level 96 Title Douluo. He has come to see His Majesty to discuss the cooperation between the Clear Sky Sect and the Heaven Dou Empire."

Tang Yuehua directly stated her purpose to Xue Qinghe. She knew that what the Heaven Dou Empire lacked most was a Title Douluo. If the Haotian Sect sent a Title Douluo to serve as an honorary retainer of the Heaven Dou royal family, Emperor Xue Ye would surely welcome it with open arms.

"So it's His Majesty Xiaotian!"

Qian Renxue, channeling her inner drama queen, immediately feigned surprise and bowed to Tang Xiao.

"Your Highness, please rise." Tang Xiao didn't put on airs.

"Your Excellency Xiaotian, isn't the Clear Sky Sect being suppressed by the Spirit Hall? Isn't it too risky for you to come out of seclusion now?"

Xue Qinghe pretended to be very worried and asked, but in his heart he was thinking: When did Haotian Sect become so bold?

"The Clear Sky Sect is hiding in its mountain gate, and the Spirit Hall is still suppressing it in the same way. Either way, it's not good for them. They might as well take the initiative to come out. If the Spirit Hall really wants to fight, then let them fight! Even if we die, we will make sure that the Spirit Hall is crippled."

Tang Xiao is no longer afraid. Anyway, the Clear Sky Sect already has enough enemies. Tang San alone is already a headache for the sect. Now, no one knows where that traitor is hiding and cultivating, and no one knows what he will become in the future.

Tang Xiao felt that Tang San's hatred for the Clear Sky Sect now even exceeded that for the Spirit Hall, which was really upsetting.

"So that's how it is! Aunt Yuehua, Your Majesty Xiaotian, then I'll take you to see Father Emperor!"

Upon hearing Tang Xiao's words, Xue Qinghe knew that Haotian Sect had no way out, which was why he had come out of the mountains. So he led the two of them toward the residence of Emperor Xueye.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Tang Yuehua was overjoyed; it was just as she had predicted.

Tang Xiao glanced at the two guards beside Xue Qinghe and thought to himself: These two seem to be very powerful.

"Huh! These two auras? Could it be?"

Just as the group was leaving the Crown Prince's residence, Tang Xiao vaguely sensed two auras that were no weaker than his own, which greatly surprised him. The Crown Prince's residence was indeed full of hidden talents!

However, Tang Xiao didn't want to pry into anything at the moment. He assumed that it was a titled Douluo from another force visiting the Crown Prince's residence.

"Inform Father that Xiaotian Douluo of the Haotian Sect requests an audience."

The group arrived at Emperor Xueye's palace, and Xue Qinghe instructed the eunuch to inform Emperor Xueye, who was playing games with his concubines.

"Yes, Your Highness." Upon hearing that Xiaotian Douluo had arrived, the eunuch immediately rushed in, not caring whether Emperor Xueye would blame him.

"Your Majesty, this old servant has important matters to report." The eunuch arrived outside Emperor Xueye's palace and reported to Emperor Xueye.

"Little Gui, can't you see I'm busy right now?" Xueye was having a great time when she heard the eunuch disturbing her, and she was immediately annoyed.

"Your Majesty, Xiaotian Douluo of the Haotian Sect requests an audience. His Highness the Crown Prince is receiving him in the reception hall," the eunuch announced the visitor's identity.

"The Howling Sky Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect?"

Upon hearing that the renowned Xiaotian Douluo had arrived, Emperor Xueye trembled with excitement, but his interest in playing vanished. He immediately got up, tidied himself up, left the palace, and went to the guest hall.

"His Majesty is failing again."

"Isn't this a common occurrence? We can't even fully enjoy playing a game."

"Sisters, let's continue playing the game ourselves, hehehe..."

After Emperor Xueye left, the concubines shook their heads helplessly, recalling how hastily he had left. Then, the women began to playfully fight.

"Father, you've arrived. Aunt Yuehua and Xiaotian Douluo are looking for you."

Looking at Emperor Xueye's aged and decrepit appearance, Xue Qinghe thought: This old guy is really good at enduring. He plays games with those concubines every day. How come he is not dead yet?

"Tang Yuehua greets Your Majesty."

"Tang Xiao greets Your Majesty."

Tang Yuehua and Tang Xiao immediately bowed to Emperor Xueye.

"Please rise, gentlemen."

Emperor Xueye chuckled and told the two to rise. Looking at Tang Yuehua's stunning beauty, a surge of passion welled up inside him. This was true beauty; his concubines paled in comparison.

However, Tang Yuehua was a princess of the Haotian Sect. No matter how passionate Emperor Xueye was, he dared not act recklessly. Otherwise, if she became unhappy, her titled Douluo brother would come crashing down with a giant hammer the next moment.

"Your Majesty, we have come here today to seek cooperation with the Empire. What is Your Majesty's opinion?"

Tang Xiao directly expressed his stance to Emperor Xue Ye. As a Title Douluo, there was no need for such roundabout methods.

"Welcome, Xiaotian Douluo."

Upon hearing the other party's words, Emperor Xueye's old face broke into a wide smile.

"Howling Sky Douluo, let's have a proper discussion here."

Emperor Xueye immediately took Tang Xiao and Tang Yuehua to the council hall to discuss cooperation.

"Father, I have some matters to attend to at my residence, so I'll head back now."

Seeing that Haotian Sect had gotten involved, Xue Qinghe knew it was time for him to retreat.

Go!

Emperor Xueye was in a great mood and had no interest in Xue Qinghe's unusual behavior.

Tang Yuehua was very curious about Xue Qinghe's departure. Logically speaking, the Crown Prince should have been very happy to see Haotian Sect taking the initiative to show goodwill to Tiandou Empire. However, the Crown Prince acted indifferently, which was very incomprehensible.

Tang Xiao and Emperor Xue Ye finally formed an alliance. The Haotian Sect would send two Title Douluo to serve as royal retainers, and also send twenty Haotian Sect disciples to join the royal family.

"Thank you, Xiaotian Douluo."

Emperor Xueye expressed his deepest gratitude to Tang Xiao, for now the empire finally had a titled Douluo in charge.

At the same time, the same was true in the Star Luo Empire, where the Star Luo Emperor also warmly welcomed the Haotian Sect.

The Haotian Sect will not put all its eggs in one basket, so it will bet on both sides at the same time. Relying on the power of the empire, it will overcome the difficulties first, and then, when the disciples of the sect have grown up and the overall strength has increased, it will reappear in the world.
