The Ballad of Youth: Inheriting Daoji, Li Hanyi, the Escapee from Marriage

"These things are useless to me!" Tang Lianyue glanced at the Tang Clan's patriarch, sighed, and said, "I know I can't persuade you, but... it's not too late to back out! The Tang Clan already has enough; why be so greedy?"

"Greedy?"

The old patriarch of the Tang Clan was furious and shouted, "I'm doing this for the Tang Clan, to help it advance further! Are you greedy? The martial world is like rowing against the current; if you don't advance, you fall behind! Maintaining the status quo will only lead to the gradual decline of the Tang Clan!"

Seeing this, Tang Lianyue knew she couldn't persuade the old master of the Tang Clan, so she said calmly, "Since that's the case, let's see!"

"Humph!"

Seeing Tang Lian Yue's expression, the old patriarch of the Tang Clan knew there was nothing more to discuss, but he still continued to warn, "Tang Lian Yue, you are the most promising person to succeed the Tang Clan in the future. You are very smart and should know what the consequences will be for interfering with my grand plan!"

"A grand plan?"

Tang Lianyue shook her head slightly, feeling somewhat disdainful.

It's all for profit!

But at this moment, even he was powerless within the entire Tang Sect!

There's no power to change anything!

Thinking of this, Tang Lianyue looked at the moonlight outside and sighed!

The next day, it was already morning, and golden sunlight streamed down, revealing a magnificent complex of pavilions that gleamed in the sunlight.

This place is where the Tang Clan is located. It is situated on a mountain, and arrays are set up on all sides!

Li Xiuyuan lay on the top of the carriage, lazily basking in the sun and sleeping.

Suddenly, I felt myself stop. I opened my eyes groggily and looked at the magnificent complex of buildings in front of me with curiosity on my face.

When the Tang Clan members saw Tang Lian return, they all greeted her warmly!

"Tang Lian, you're back?"

"Wow, you brought quite a few people back!"

A group of people were quite surprised.

Tang Lian also smiled and greeted a group of acquaintances.

Xiao Se sat in the carriage, his gaze sweeping over the group of people, his expression subtly shifting.

Most people's complexions were normal, with no significant changes.

But among them, a few people had a fleeting look of surprise on their faces!

Clearly, he knew something in his heart!

"This Tang Clan...there's something wrong with them!" Xiao Se muttered almost inaudibly.

However, Xiao Se was not worried about his safety.

No matter how bold the Tang Clan is, if a group of us die here, the Tang Clan will still be inextricably linked to it.

Most importantly, Daoji is here!

Thinking of this, Xiao Se turned to look at Li Xiuyuan!

At this moment, Li Xiuyuan was still drinking his wine nonchalantly, lazily watching a seemingly powerful middle-aged man appear in front of the carriage.

Upon seeing the middle-aged man, Tang Lian's face lit up with joy, and she said, "Master, you've come?"

This middle-aged man was none other than Tang Lianyue!

"Ok!"

Tang Lianyue patted Tang Lian on the shoulder and asked with a smile, "Did you encounter any dangers on the way?"

"Forehead"

Tang Lian was taken aback, thought for a moment, and said, "On my way, I encountered an assassination attempt by the Dark River!"

"underground river?"

Tang Lianyue's face turned ugly in an instant!

When did the Dark River set its sights on Tang Lian? It makes absolutely no sense!

Could it be Old Master Tang... and what was his reason?

Seeing Tang Lianyue's expression, Tang Lian smiled and said, "Master, don't worry! I'm fine, but a friend of mine... has been poisoned by the Bone-Melting Incense!"

"Bone-Melting Incense? Has that rare poison reappeared?" Tang Lianyue was somewhat uneasy. She glanced at Xiao Se and said, "This poison, although difficult to treat, isn't without a way! This isn't the place to talk. Let's go back and rest!"

Xiao Se nodded slightly, cupped his hands slightly to Tang Lian Yue, and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you!"

"It's alright, it's nothing!"

Tang Lianyue glanced at Xiao Se and his group, and a thought suddenly struck her!

Chapter 136 The Patriarch of the Dark River Clan, Su Changhe!

He recognized Xiao Se's true identity, but said nothing, only smiling and saying, "You must be Xiao Se! Tang Lian often mentions you to me!"

“That’s right, I am Xiao Se!” Xiao Se smiled and chatted with Tang Lian Yue as they walked into the Tang Clan.

"I didn't expect those two to get along so well!" Sikong Qianluo smiled slightly and said to Tang Lian, "By the way, Tang Lian, when will the bone-melting incense on Xiao Se be dispelled?"

Tang Lian, who was standing nearby, said "Oh," and then added, "This will require my master's intervention! It should only take a day or two!"

Thinking of this, Tang Lian remembered the damage to Ye Ruoyi's heart meridian and asked, "By the way, Master, there's one more thing, that is, the damage to Miss Ye's heart meridian..."

"Congenital heart defect?" Tang Lianyue guessed Ye Ruoyi's identity as soon as she saw her.

He shook his head slightly and said, "Even the half-successor of the Medicine King in Snow Moon City is powerless. What can I do? Perhaps only by seeing the Medicine King himself can I find a solution!"

"what?"

Tang Lian was taken aback, and was about to say something when she suddenly heard an old voice say, "Innate heart meridian incompleteness? It's not like there's no way to fix it!"

The speaker was an old man, with his hands behind his back, dressed in a magnificent brocade robe, exuding an imposing and dignified aura!

Tang Lian's face lit up with joy, and she said, "Grandpa, do you have a way to cure Miss Ye?"

"Yes, there is, but it will take some time!" The old patriarch of the Tang Clan put his hands behind his back, slightly hunched over, glanced at the crowd, and asked with a fleeting look of anxiety on his face, "I heard... that the Snow Moon Sword Immortal also came to the Tang Clan, but I wonder why... he didn't come in?"

Tang Lian was taken aback, a hint of confusion appearing in her mind.

That is, how did the old man know that his group of people had not revealed their whereabouts or said that the Snow Moon Sword Immortal would come along?

A flicker of surprise crossed Xiao Se's eyes, but he immediately smiled and said, "The Second City Lord is feeling unwell and is staying outside the city!"

For some reason, when Old Master Tang heard that Li Hanyi was at an inn not far from the Tang Clan, he suddenly relaxed, a kind smile appearing on his face. He said, "I see! This young friend must be Xiao Se. You've been poisoned by the Bone-Melting Incense?"

"Not bad!"

Xiao Se nodded slightly.

"This kind of poison is not easy to cure!" Old Master Tang shook his head slightly.

Tang Lianyue, who was standing to the side, was taken aback and said, "The Bone-Melting Incense... doesn't seem like much. I'll take action..."

"No, you underestimate this Bone-Melting Incense! This isn't ordinary Bone-Melting Incense; it's an improved version!" Old Master Tang patted Xiao Se on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Fortunately, I have a solution. You all stay at the Tang Clan for a few days while I go find an antidote, and... a pill to treat this little girl's heart meridian!"

Xiao Se was puzzled; the old man in front of him gave him a very strange feeling.

He was even more skeptical when the old master of the Tang Clan said that the Bone-Melting Incense was not an ordinary Bone-Melting Incense!

However, he wasn't in a hurry and said slowly, "Then I'll have to trouble you!"

Among the group, only Tang Lianyue's expression changed.

He looked at Old Master Tang, and his heart sank!

I've already guessed their purpose!

Thinking of this, Tang Lianyue clenched her fist, but ultimately gave up! (23sK.com)

Xiao Se glanced at Tang Lian Yue and, judging from her expression, concluded that there was definitely something wrong with the Tang Clan!

And this problem... is quite significant!

Thinking of this, Xiao Se turned to look at Li Xiuyuan!

The monk was still fast asleep, lying drowsily on the roof of the carriage.

He seems so carefree!

For some reason, Xiao Se felt much more relieved the moment he saw Li Xiuyuan fast asleep!

Most of the time, this monk... is quite reliable!

After exchanging pleasantries with the old master of the Tang Clan for a while, the old master made an excuse and left!

Have a few members of the Tang Clan prepare a banquet to entertain Li Xiuyuan and his group!

Xiao Se and the others didn't refuse and stayed at the Tang Clan for the time being!

I didn't sleep all night and need to rest for a while!

On the other side, atop a mountain peak, a man in black stood with a bottomless abyss below!

'Coo coo coo!'

The cooing of pigeons rang out, and a carrier pigeon appeared in mid-air, landing in the hand of the man in black.

This middle-aged man in black is none other than Su Changhe, the patriarch of the Dark River family!

I plucked a small bamboo tube from the pigeon's leg, opened it, and inside was a white paper strip, densely covered with writing.

"Oh? The assassination failed, and Li Hanyi has arrived at the Tang Clan..." Su Changhe chuckled, his tone filled with excitement and joy: "That suits me just fine!"

One of the subordinates, somewhat surprised, asked, "Master, wouldn't it be even harder to kill Li Hanyi now that she's in the Tang Clan? Why...?"

Su Changhe, looking completely confident, said calmly, "I'm asking you, why...why did I kill Li Hanyi?"

"This..." The subordinate was stunned!

"Can't figure it out?" Su Changhe smiled slightly and said calmly, "You should know that a sword immortal of this era is not so easy to kill! If I'm not careful, I might even lose my life! Not to mention, there's also a mad monk! He's no less powerful than a sword immortal!"

"This..." The man was stunned!

For a moment, I didn't know what to say!

Su Changhe turned around, patted the man on the shoulder, and slowly said, "With that mad monk around, we can't kill Li Hanyi! From the beginning, I never intended to kill her; I was just trying my luck! But now that Li Hanyi has gone to the Tang Clan, that's perfect..."
