Chapter 223 Haotian Sect, it's Haotian Sect again!

"You, you..."

Baihe really wanted to curse, but she held back.

Leaving aside the Spirit Hall people on the other side, they were still talking to Yang Wudi about his brother and son.

Putting aside whether there are other ambushes around, just this matter alone, if his actions prevent Yang Wudi from hearing the follow-up, he cannot do this.

He and Yang Wudi had been friends for many years, and his family had only been able to barely survive thanks to Yang's occasional assistance. He couldn't let Yang down.

Moreover, judging from Han Li's words, the reason he was being targeted was entirely because Han Li was Tang Hao's uncle.

Tang Hao, it's Tang Hao again. Never mind, that's his sister, I can't curse her like that.

He doesn't want to hear that name at all right now. Just because he's associated with Tang Hao, he's really in deep trouble.

Initially, the Min clan was merely an affiliated clan of the Haotian Sect. At that time, the Haotian Sect was quite powerful, and they were doing quite well. His sister even married the sect leader of the Haotian Sect, which was the envy of many people. They certainly made quite a splash.

But little did anyone know, this was just the beginning of a nightmare.

As Tang Hao grew up and his sister passed away, his uncle's life became worse than it had been at the beginning.

Of course, the main reason is that Tang Chen has risen to power. The Haotian Sect has always been domineering, and with Tang Hao's generation, they have become even more unscrupulous.

Tang Hao, perhaps due to his talent, displayed this even more clearly than the others, treating these affiliated clans like slaves, ordering them around as if they were his servants.

Unfortunately, Titan seems to have lost his mind and idolizes Tang Hao, even acknowledging him as his master, which puts the other three races in an awkward position.

While they were still hesitating, something even more explosive broke out: the Spirit Hall claimed that Tang Hao was colluding with spirit beasts, and even the Pope personally took action to hunt him down.

To be honest, at the time, they all thought the Spirit Hall had gone mad. Why couldn't they come up with a better excuse? Why didn't they say that Tang Hao fell in love with a spirit beast and had a child?

With such a thing happening, everything else naturally had to take a backseat. So, the four clans led their people and headed straight for the Haotian Sect.

Clearly, the Spirit Hall sensed a crisis and feared that the Haotian Twin Stars would grow stronger and threaten them. Indeed, this was the consensus among the vast majority of people in their camp at the time.

Of course, it wasn't just them; the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon School also arrived at the same time. In this respect, the other two sects were second to none.

Then, the most infuriating thing happened. When they arrived at the Clear Sky Sect, another piece of news came: Tang Hao had successfully broken through to the Title Douluo level and defeated the current Pope, Qian Xunji.

This made them feel both panicked and proud.

This is what genius is.

Judging from the news, Tang Hao is indeed a genius among geniuses. He barely broke through to the Title Douluo realm, yet he killed the Pope of the Spirit Hall, who was a Super Douluo. What kind of strength does that show?

Then, just as they were waiting, another message came: Qian Xunji had died from his injuries after fighting Tang Hao.

In an instant, everyone was stunned.

If defeating Qian Xunji is a great thing, then killing Qian Xunji has a different meaning.

Even so, they firmly believed that as long as Tang Hao returned, the combined strength of the three sects, along with their affiliated clans, would be enough to fight him.

(PS: In their minds, Tang Chen is still alive, and Qian Daoliu lost to him, while the Spirit Hall has never actually revealed its true strength.)

But just when all their clans, including the other two of the three upper clans, firmly supported the Haotian Sect, they still didn't get to see Tang Hao return.

Moreover, what they found most unacceptable was that when the Spirit Hall's army resisted, the Clear Sky Sect, which was known for its toughness, backed down.

Not only did they back down, but more importantly, they chose to close the mountains and retreat into seclusion, abandoning their subordinate clans who were at the forefront of the fight.

That's right, they abandoned them. They only took their direct descendants and left without even a word of explanation.

Not only that, they also declared that they would expel Tang Hao from the sect and abandon his affiliated clans. For a moment, everyone was stunned.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon School also left in anger.

At that very moment, the Spirit Hall came to expel them. Yes, expel them, because the territory that was originally the Clear Sky Sect now belonged to the Spirit Hall.

Of course, the Spirit Hall did try to recruit them at first, but the four clans had just been abandoned by the Clear Sky Sect, and since they had previously belonged to the Clear Sky Sect, they had had many conflicts with the Spirit Hall, so how could they accept them?

Moreover, the territory that the Spirit Hall wants to take over is their home, the place where they have lived for generations, for the four major single-attribute clans. How could they possibly give it up?

So they started fighting against the Spirit Hall.

Then, the situation became one-sided. How could they possibly be a match for the Spirit Hall? In the process, they paid a heavy price to successfully escape.

Afterwards, the Spirit Hall didn't actually pursue them to the bitter end; instead, they chose to return and claim their territory after they left. However, the conflict had already occurred, and bloodshed had taken place. Judging from their own experience, they didn't believe the Spirit Hall would let them go.

Over the years, as they talked, they themselves came to feel that the Spirit Hall was their mortal enemy.

Of course, the three of them also harbored hatred towards the Haotian Sect and Tang Hao, except for Titan.

That's right, Titan separated the Clear Sky Sect from Tang Hao, believing it was all the Clear Sky Sect's fault and had nothing to do with Tang Hao.

In the eyes of the other three, including his uncle, the Haotian Sect's actions were nothing more than a performance with Tang Hao, at the cost of making their affiliated clans expendable.

As for the old sect leader who was angered to death by Tang Hao, well, they didn't witness it with their own eyes. Who knows if it was just an act or a fake death? In any case, they will never trust the Haotian Sect again.

"Alright, old white bird."

With the two interruptions, Yang Wudi also snapped out of his emotional daze. He gripped the Soul-Breaking Spear tightly again and looked at Han Li: "So, your rescue was a pretense; you were actually after me?"

"Well, you could say that, since I recognized you, senior, that's why I came here."

Han Li is a man of principle who speaks the truth. He doesn't like to treat people like fools, except for Gangzi.

"That might disappoint you. Even if I knew that Wushuang and Xiaoyan were still alive, I would never pledge allegiance to the Spirit Hall."

Yang Wudi's refusal was unusually decisive, leaving himself no way out, and also demonstrating his stance to Bai He beside him.

"Who told you to pledge allegiance to the Spirit Hall?"

Han Li looked at him curiously; he had never said anything like that from beginning to end.

Yang Wudi tightened his grip on the gun, seemingly somewhat embarrassed.

"Then what are you doing here?"

Bai He took the initiative to speak, afraid that his old friend would be embarrassed.

"I already said I came to help out and get to know Senior Yang, but now I've changed my mind."

Han Li paused deliberately, then smiled at Bai He: "Since you are so hostile to the Spirit Hall, and are members of the Min clan, healing is possible, I guarantee he will recover completely, but helping will have to be a deal."

"A complete recovery, without any lasting problems, are you in?"

Upon hearing Han Li's words, Bai He's face flashed with interest, but his eyes unconsciously turned to Yang Wudi, as if asking for his opinion.

"How does the trading work?"

Yang Wudi clearly saw his old friend's wavering, and Bai Ming was indeed a very promising member of the Min clan. If it only came at a small price, it was still worth helping him.

"I've heard that the Min family has a family heirloom. Coincidentally, I enjoy collecting treasures, so it's a reasonable deal for me to save someone and you to give me your heirloom, isn't it?"

Han Li slightly curled the corners of his lips and looked at Bai He, whose expression had changed drastically.

"How did you know that my Min family has a family heirloom?"

The white crane was filled with shock. Only the clan leaders knew about the family heirloom. Even the old goat beside him didn't know about it.

"It seems your family heirloom is indeed quite good. Hmm, very good, it's decided then, I don't want anything else."

Han Li made a face as if he had successfully tested the waters, then looked at Bai He:

"As for how I know, it's from the records that Haotian Sect didn't take with them back then. However, the level of secrecy is very high. I only know that you have a family heirloom, but I don't know what it is."

"I was just trying it out, but judging from your reaction, I think I've made a profit."

Without any psychological burden, Han Li directly shifted the blame onto the Haotian Sect.

If you're so capable, go and verify the information with the Haotian Sect.

Hearing Han Li's words, Bai He was truly furious this time.

Haotian Sect, it's Haotian Sect again.

Why is it so persistent? It's been over ten years, and in the end, he was still tricked by the Haotian Sect.

Moreover, the Haotian Sect actually had records of information about the Min clan's family heirloom, and it was a top-secret document.

What does this mean? It means they already knew the Min clan's secrets, and might even be interested in taking away the Min clan's heirloom.

Although Bai He wasn't entirely sure if what the Spirit Hall person in front of him said was true, he naturally believed that the Clear Sky Sect was more likely to have obtained the information than the Spirit Hall or the Clear Sky Sect.

Although Yang Wudi didn't know anything about the family heirloom, he understood a thing or two from their conversation: his old friend had been implicated by the Haotian Sect again.

Seeing his old friend's face turn ashen, and glancing at Bai Ming still lying on the ground, Yang Wudi sighed and pulled Bai He aside.

"This is a serious matter; let's discuss it."

"Okay, but I must remind you that the longer it drags on, the harder it will be for his injuries to fully recover. I'm sure you understand this, so please be careful to manage the time."

Han Li gestured to the two of them with his eyes, then glanced at Bai Ming, who was still unconscious.

"it is good."

Yang Wudi gave a crisp and decisive answer, and a soul power shield rose up, actively isolating the two of them.

"Lingling, if you need to take action later, remember to disguise your martial soul and soul rings. It's good to use him as your first practice target after you level up."

During the mental sharing, Han Li sent a message to Ye Lingling.

"What if they refuse to make the deal?"

Ye Lingling nodded almost imperceptibly, then asked in a low voice.

"They will. They will choose between the future backbone of the clan and a precious medicine that is not needed for the time being."

After a pause, Han Li continued:

"Besides, I've already told them that both the Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect have this information. Guess what they'll do? And do you think they'll dare to gamble on the probability that neither of them will attack them?"

"If it were me, since the news has already been leaked, I would rather minimize the losses as much as possible. At the very least, this way I can salvage some of the damage and save a clansman with considerable strength."

This was a blatant conspiracy; they had no choice. When Han Li encountered them, the outcome was already predetermined.
