Chapter 152 The Restoration of Haotian?
Just a shattered mess! Tang Chen was furious: Wei the traitor!!
Tang San was being carried by Tang Chen, his breath weak but his mind still intact.
On the way back, Tang San, due to his own anger and Tang Chen's lack of control over the Asura Qi, had suffered a mishap during his cultivation and almost went into a demonic possession.
He hadn't recovered much yet.
Tang San forced himself to stay strong, his eyes anxiously scanning the crowd again and again.
Many familiar faces were there: his uncle Tang Xiao, several elders, and even some sect disciples he had seen before.
However, the tall, burly figure who always remained silent but gave him an endless sense of security was nowhere to be seen.
"Uncle..."
Tang San's voice was weak and anxious, carrying a hint of foreboding, and he couldn't help but ask:
"Where is my father? Where is Dad...?"
Hearing Tang San's question, Tang Chen, who had been immersed in the joy of reunion and the pride of transcending the world, trembled slightly.
Reminded by this, he suddenly recalled the scenes he had witnessed on the Sky Screen Arena.
His grandson, Tang Hao, whom he had once been so proud of, hailed as the greatest genius of the Haotian Sect in a century, was utterly powerless against that damned Wei Tianchen, like a child.
He was brutally beaten, humiliated, and even… had his arm severed!
Those images, like burning branding marks, deeply pierced Tang Chen's heart.
His hatred for Wei Tianchen erupted like a volcano, growing ever more intense.
"Wei Tianchen… if I don't avenge this, I, Tang Chen, swear I will not be human!"
Tang Chen clenched his fists, his knuckles white, his killing intent surging, instantly lowering the surrounding temperature to freezing.
Tang Chen took a deep breath, suppressing his rage, and turned to Tang Xiao, asking in a low voice, "Xiao'er, where is Hao'er?"
"Let him come out and see me!"
Faced with the intense gazes of Tang Chen and Tang San, Tang Xiao and the five elders behind him exchanged glances, their faces showing embarrassment and difficulty.
The elders' eyes flickered, hesitant to speak.
In the end, they all looked at Tang Xiao.
Clearly, they had passed this hot potato to the sect leader.
Tang Xiao sighed inwardly and stepped forward helplessly.
Tang Xiao looked at Tang Chen, then at the weak and exhausted Tang San, and finally sighed deeply.
His tone was full of bitterness and helplessness:
"Grandpa, Xiao San... Brother Hao, he..."
Tang Xiao paused, seemingly choosing his words carefully, and after a moment, slowly said:
"Brother Hao... doesn't know how to face you, Grandpa, and he doesn't know how to face Xiao San."
"After all... he was humiliated by that Wei Tianchen..."
Tang Xiao's voice trailed off, a mixture of pain and shame on his face.
"Being so humiliated in front of the whole world by that Wei Tianchen, even losing an arm... Brother Hao is proud and arrogant; for him, this is worse than death."
"He felt he had disgraced the Haotian Sect, and he felt ashamed to face your teachings, Grandfather, and Xiao San's expectations..."
"So, ever since the battle at Tianmu, he has locked himself in the forbidden stone chamber in the back mountain, drowning his sorrows in alcohol every day, refusing to see anyone. Even me... he refused to let me in."
"Tang Hao. In the original novel, before taking Tang San back to the Clear Sky Sect to acknowledge his ancestors, he forcibly dug out the inherited soul bones from one of his arms and one leg. His strength dropped drastically as a result. But in this world, due to the 'butterfly effect,' just like other altered details, he didn't dig out the inherited soul bones, and his strength wasn't affected. But ultimately, he was still forcibly cut off by Wei Tianchen. Even his soul bones were burned to ashes."
Upon hearing this, Tang Chen's face, already contorted by the aura of Asura, turned even redder with rage, his chest heaving violently like a volcano about to erupt.
"Bastard! Utterly bastard!"
Tang Chen whirled around, his finger trembling as he pointed towards the Spirit Hall, his hair and beard bristling, cursing uncontrollably:
"That little beast Wei Tianchen! Relying on some strange skills, he dares to humiliate my Clear Sky Sect disciples like this!"
"The grudge of the severed arm, the shame of this insult! I will remember it!"
"Once I've calmed my breath, I will personally go there and tear Wei Tianchen to pieces. I'll break his bones one by one, let him know the consequences of angering me, Tang Chen!!"
A terrifying killing intent, like a tangible storm, instantly swept through the Clear Sky Sect's front courtyard.
The elders were terrified, too afraid to even breathe.
But Tang Xiao and the others couldn't help but smile bitterly to themselves.
Tear Wei Tianchen to pieces?
"Easier said than done! Weren't you beaten to a pulp by Wei Tianchen before?"
But with Tang Chen enraged, they weren't foolish enough to say such things.
However, after the outburst, the anger in Tang Chen's eyes didn't subside.
Instead, it burned even more fiercely, as if a bucket of hot oil had been poured over it.
A sense of unbearable frustration and resentment also crept in.
He suddenly recalled the stories Tang San had told him intermittently on the way back to the Clear Sky Sect.
Although Tang San was weak then, every word he spoke was like a knife stabbing into his heart.
Back then, it was because of Qian Xunji of the Spirit Hall that Tang Hao was driven to desperation.
To protect Tang Hao, the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor, Tang San's mother, Ah Yin, was forced to sacrifice herself.
Her soul scattered, leaving only a seed.
Now planted in a closed stone chamber in the back mountain of the Clear Sky Sect, its current cultivation level is only 10,000 years.
Without the blessing of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, even if it were to rebuild, its speed would be far slower than in the original story.
Tang San had originally planned to help his mother regain her human form after inheriting the Sea God's position.
However, what tormented Tang Chen even more was that his own son, the father of Tang Hao and Tang Xiao, had died of anger and grief over this incident!
"My son died of anger… my granddaughter-in-law died…"
Tang Chen gritted his teeth, his eyes bloodshot.
Not only that, but because of that incident, the Clear Sky Sect was forced into seclusion.
The four single-attribute clans that had once been loyal to the Clear Sky Sect—the Strength Clan, the Defense Clan, the Agility Clan, and the Breaking Clan—were disheartened by the sect's retreat and abandonment, and ultimately broke away to establish their own sects.
The once mighty Clear Sky Sect, hailed as the number one sect in the world, was now reduced to disintegration and hiding in exile!
"Aaaaah!! The Spirit Hall! The Qian Family!
And that Wei Tianchen!!"
Tang Chen stomped his foot, instantly shattering the hard rock beneath his feet, countless cracks spreading outwards like a spiderweb.
He felt a raging fire burning in his chest, searing pain in his internal organs.
He had been trapped in the City of Slaughter for so many years, and finally returned to find his family destroyed, his wife and children scattered, his sect in ruins!
How could he not be furious?
How could he not be enraged?!
"Fine! Very well!"
Tang Chen laughed in fury, his voice like a chilling wind from the depths of hell:
"New and old grudges, we'll settle them all together!"
