Chapter 162 Tang Xiao: A Humiliating Disgrace
Chapter 162 Tang Xiao: A Humiliating Disgrace
Tang Tian's face was extremely ugly. If Tang Hao was a dog, wasn't that the same as calling him, Tang Tian, a dog?
Even though Tang Tian was furious, he knew that all of this was indeed caused by his son, Tang Hao.
The father is to blame for not teaching his son properly. Tang Hao caused such a great calamity to befall the sect, and as his father, he bears an inescapable responsibility.
Tang Tian sighed, then gripped his left hand tightly with his right.
Accompanied by a snort!
He actually ripped his left arm off.
"Aaaaaah..." The intense pain caused Tang Tian to scream loudly. His already pale face was now completely bloodless, turning deathly white.
"Dad!" Tang Xiao exclaimed in shock.
The First Elder Tang Xuan and the other elders exchanged a glance, then sighed and tore off their own left arms as well.
Hmph!
"Aaaaaah..."
After Tang Xuan, the other elders, after a brief hesitation, followed suit and tore off their own arms.
Hmph!
"Aaaaaah..."
Hmph!
"Aaaaaah..."
Hmph!
"Aaaaaah..."
"..."
The elders of the Rat Sect were all crippled. Only Tang Lie escaped this calamity, because he led a group of the Rat Sect's direct disciples to the sect's ancestral land.
"Father, Elder, you..." Tang Xiao was filled with grief, partly because of the tragic state of his elders.
On the other hand, it is also a sign of anger at their lack of ambition. The once mighty Haotian Sect, the number one sect on the continent, has become so weak, which is truly pitiful and lamentable.
Tang Tian and the elders have all become crippled, thus fulfilling Qian Xunji's request.
Now, only Tang Xiao remains.
All eyes were on him.
Even though Tang Xiao was extremely unwilling, he was unwilling to implicate the entire sect because of himself.
Just as he was about to tear off his arm like everyone else...
"Wait a minute!" a voice rang out, stopping Tang Xiao.
Qian Xunji looked at Lin Ye, who was his good son-in-law, Lin Ye, who had just interrupted Tang Xiao.
The others also looked at Lin Ye, this mysterious masked man who appeared with the three elders of the Spirit Hall. What was his identity?
Lin Ye was unaware of these people's curiosity; at this moment, his eyes were only on Tang Xiao.
"Tang Xiao, long time no see!"
Tang Xiao remained silent, only glaring resentfully at Lin Ye.
Seeing this, Lin Ye didn't take it to heart and said to himself, "Tang Xiao, I heard you broke through to level 90. Congratulations! I also brought you a congratulatory gift this time."
The words were spoken.
Lin Ye waved his hand.
With a clatter, a small iron cage fell to the ground, inside which was a small mouse.
Tang Xiao recognized it as a 10-year-old rat-type soul beast, and a sense of foreboding welled up in his heart. He gritted his teeth and asked, "What do you mean?"
Lin Ye said with a smile, "You happen to be missing a spirit ring, so I'll make this your ninth spirit ring."
Now everyone understood Lin Ye's intention.
Using a 10-year spirit ring as the ninth spirit ring is going to completely destroy Tang Xiao!
"You scoundrel, don't even think about it!" Tang Xiao was furious, his eyes bloodshot and his breath coming in ragged gasps.
To absorb a 10-year-old spirit ring as one's ninth spirit ring is an utter disgrace.
Lin Ye chuckled, "Tang Xiao, get this straight, I'm not negotiating with you. You can just obediently absorb this soul ring and that'll be fine."
Otherwise, believe me, I'll have your Rat Clan buried with you.
Upon hearing this, Tang Xiao's face darkened considerably.
Qian Xunji was secretly pleased. So this was what her good son-in-law was planning. It seemed quite interesting. How come she hadn't thought of this way of doing things?
So Qian Xunji added fuel to the fire, "Tang Xiao, choose between destroying the sect and this soul ring."
"You, a scholar can be killed but not humiliated. What kind of ability do you have to humiliate me like this..." Tang Xiao was so angry that his whole body was trembling.
Tang Tian was the same; Tang Xiao and Tang Hao were his sons, and they were the most outstanding and excellent among the younger generation of the Rat Clan.
He was also proud of his two sons.
But now, the Spirit Hall not only wants to destroy his son, but also humiliates him in every way.
After a fit of impotent rage, Tang Xiao ultimately chose to compromise for the sake of the Rat Sect.
With a loud bang!
Tang Xiao swung his Haotian Hammer and smashed the iron cage containing the rats flat, killing them instantly.
Specks of white light rose from the rat's corpse, slowly converging to form a white soul ring.
The white spirit ring was so white it was blinding and piercing.
With a thought, Tang Xiao summoned the white spirit ring, which landed on him and was positioned outside his eighth spirit ring.
Everyone witnessed the birth of a Title Douluo, a Title Douluo with a ninth spirit ring after 10 years, which was simply terrifying.
The 10-year spirit ring was no problem for Tang Xiao; he completed the absorption process in just two or three minutes.
Tang Xiao's current soul ring configuration is: yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, white, black.
That last white spirit ring was blindingly white, a white that pierced the heart.
Looking at his ninth spirit ring, Tang Xiao almost vomited blood. This was a disgrace, an utter humiliation.
Lin Ye, on the other hand, was in high spirits. His happiness was built on the suffering of the Tang family.
Lin Ye said with a smile, "Alright, Tang Xiao, now continue to fulfill His Holiness the Pope's request."
Tang Xiao asked with a grim face, "What are your requirements?"
Lin Ye kindly reminded him, "The arm."
"You, you all..." Tang Xiao trembled with rage. He had thought he wouldn't have to lose his hand, but he hadn't expected that they had no intention of letting him go.
He then realized that Lin Ye was deliberately trying to disgust him.
Why did Lin Ye stop him from losing his arm? It was because his soul power would inevitably drop after losing his arm.
That would prevent me from absorbing the ninth spirit ring.
Tang Xiao gritted his teeth in hatred. If looks could kill, Lin Ye would have been dead a thousand times over.
But no matter how much resentment he felt, he had no choice but to compromise again for the sake of the survival of the Rat Sect.
A muffled groan!
"Aaaaaaahhhhh..."
Tang Xiao ripped off his left hand, and the excruciating pain caused him to let out a piercing scream.
After losing his arm, Tang Xiao's soul power dropped back to that of a Soul Douluo.
Qian Xunji nodded in satisfaction and said, "Given your obedience, I will now make two more conditions. The next condition is that since you have changed your name to the Rat Sect, and the Clear Sky Sect is a thing of the past, you no longer need to remain here. My Spirit Hall will completely destroy this Clear Sky Sect. As for where you will go?"
Mice naturally go into their holes.
My father made a verbal agreement with your former sect leader, Tang Chen, to leave you a rat hole so you could settle down there. You were to crawl back into that hole and never, ever come out again. If I hear of any rats leaving their burrows, I will kill them all! (End of Chapter)
