Chapter 480: Bai Chenxiang

~8 min read 1,441 words

As time gradually turned to night, Yang Wudi drank until he was tipsy and slowly fell asleep at the entrance, while Tang San and his group had already left Longxing City dozens of miles behind; after all, they were all Spirit Masters and traveled quickly.

But they did not rest, instead traveling through the night.

"Cousin Tang San, Grandfather asked me to bring you dry rations and water." Bai Chenxiang walked in front of Tang San holding the food.

"Mm!" Tang San took the food and water, nodding expressionlessly.

In truth, Bai Chenxiang did not like this cousin very much; although he was quite handsome and his aptitude was extraordinary, his temperament was far too gloomy, and being with him was very uncomfortable.

Ever since Tang San's father went missing and he failed to find Xiao Wu after going to the Star Dou Great Forest, and especially after hearing from that noble person that his father and Xiao Wu might both be dead, he had remained in this state, as if he had been corrupted by darkness.

The originally blue Blue Silver Emperor had slowly turned pitch black, and because of this, it had gained a very formidable devouring ability; it must have mutated somewhat, much like the situation with Tang Ya in later generations.

If not for the last shred of reason Tang San still possessed, he would have undoubtedly been able to advance to a Title Douluo in a very short time, just like Tang Ya, had he recklessly used the Blue Silver Emperor's devouring ability to cultivate.

However, that shred of reason would likely not last much longer; once he saw the Spirit Hall or Nan Feihuang again, he would probably stop at nothing for the sake of revenge.

"Cousin, you don't need to take the matter of Yang Wudi too much to heart. We already stayed in Longxing City for several days trying to persuade him. If we had set out a few days earlier, we would have already reached our destination by now. Why would we need to be like this, worrying about being caught up to by the Lower Four Sects and traveling through the night? You and Great-Uncle have already done all you could. It is he who is ungrateful and has let down your painstaking efforts." Seeing that Bai Chenxiang seemed very unhappy and guessing she was worried about Yang Wudi, Tang San spoke up to persuade her.

After all, she was one of his few remaining relatives and had joined his faction, so he was still willing to look after her a little.

"Yes, I understand, Cousin." Bai Chenxiang was displeased by Tang San's assessment of Yang Wudi, but her grandfather had instructed her that she was now Tang San's subordinate and could not ignore the hierarchy just because of their kinship.

Therefore, Bai Chenxiang acted somewhat cautiously in front of Tang San.

"Cousin, where exactly is our next destination?" Bai Chenxiang asked curiously.

"The Clear Sky Sect!" Tang San said earnestly, "I want to subdue the Clear Sky Sect just as I subdued the Single Attribute Four Clans."

"The Clear Sky Sect?" Bai Chenxiang was startled. "Cousin, the Clear Sky Sect is completely different from us. They are powerful and do not fear the mere Lower Four Sects; they are very difficult to subdue. Besides, I have heard that the Clear Sky Sect has deep grievances with you and Uncle Tang. They may not welcome us. Furthermore, they are currently living in seclusion; does Cousin know where they are?"

"You don't need to worry about these things; I have my own ways." Tang San smiled gloomily. This time, he was going to use the foundation that that person had given him.

With that person there, he was not afraid that the Clear Sky Sect would refuse.

In fact, the forces under his command now were not small. Besides the Single Attribute Four Clans, he also had a powerful force given to him by that god. If he could also obtain the Clear Sky Sect, then the power under his command would be enough to contend with Nan Feihuang or even the Spirit Hall.

When that time came, he would return to this Star Luo Empire; this continent would belong to him in the future.

Then he would spare no cost to find his father and Xiao Wu. If they were already dead, he would drag them back even from the underworld.

Tang San suddenly thought of something and turned to say to the group, "Rest assured, I will not let you join the Clear Sky Sect directly. You are all members of my Tang Sect; at most, you will have a cooperative relationship with the Clear Sky Sect." "Understood, thank you, Young Master." Titan was deeply moved. Tang San was so considerate of them, knowing their grievances with the Clear Sky Sect, and had specifically thought of this compromise for them.

Bai Chenxiang gave a cold smile; in her view, there was actually no difference.

They joined Tang San's Tang Sect, but Tang San, the master of the Tang Sect, was returning to the Clear Sky Sect. What difference was there between the Tang Sect and an affiliate of the Clear Sky Sect? Back then, their Single Attribute Four Clans were originally affiliate clans of the Clear Sky Sect; this was just the same thing under a different name.

It was just changing the broth but not the medicine.

If not for the extreme pressure from the Spirit Hall, apart from the Power Clan, which were loyal sycophants of the Tang Family, even the Defense and Min Clans would never have yielded.

No wonder her Yang Yeye would rather die than follow them; he must have already seen through something.

If one were to speak of which of the four clans held the deepest hatred for the Tang Family and the Clear Sky Sect, it was undoubtedly Yang Wudi.

Arriving at a small town, the group immediately went to a hotel to rest. Bai Chenxiang was a girl and the eldest lady of the Min Clan, so she had a room to herself.

She lay on the bed, her heart filled with unease—there was worry for Yang Wudi, and also confusion about the future.

"Yang Yeye..."

Immediately, Bai Chenxiang clenched her fists, as if she had made a decision.

"Junior Brother, not far ahead is Longxing City. I heard the four clans are gathered there during this period. If I were one of the Lower Four Sects, this period would be the best opportunity to wipe them all out at once." Shui Bing'er pondered, "However, the combined strength of the four clans is not weak. Unless Tuoba Xi takes action personally, it would be difficult for any single one of the Lower Four Sects to succeed. They need time to gather their men."

"Since Tang San has come, these few days are also the best opportunity for him. If I were him, I would definitely use the Power Clan to notify the other three clans to move the gathering time up by a few days, then take advantage of the moment Tuoba Xi is distracted to take the Single Attribute Four Clans away. He is in the dark while Tuoba Xi is in the light; this information gap is Tang San's greatest advantage."

Feihuang nodded. "That is indeed the case. Tuoba Xi does not know of Tang San's arrival. As long as his actions are slightly delayed, the four clans will escape. However, given the personality of the Po Clan, they might not go with Tang San. It is just right that we rush there now."

If Yang Wudi stayed behind, Tuoba Xi could not possibly let him go. Adding flowers to embroidery can never compare to sending charcoal in snowy weather.

In any case, his main goal was only the Po Clan; he had no interest in the other three clans.

As long as they waited until Yang Wudi could no longer hold on and then went to save him, promising him great benefits, the chance of subduing Yang Wudi would be quite high.

After all, unlike the Clear Sky Sect, the Gulei Kingdom and the Po Clan had not the slightest grievance.

Like a stone in a latrine, Yang Wudi was foul and hard, but he also valued his reputation immensely and always repaid kindness.

Moreover, Nan Feihuang held a treasure that could sway Yang Wudi; as long as he brought out the Fragrant Silk Luo Immortal Product, combined with the grace of saving his life, he was not afraid that Yang Wudi would not submit.
