The moment the three entered the reception hall, they became the focus. As the atmosphere briefly tensed, Titan smiled as if nothing had happened and said, "Come, Old Goat, let me introduce you to two young friends."
Yang Wudi's gaze sharpened, and his voice was neither warm nor cold, "Old Ape, when did you get such young friends?"
His voice gave no hint of his mood, conveying a sense of calm before a storm.
Titan, accustomed to his friend's attitude, didn't mind. "My two young friends are no ordinary people. Old Goat, you absolutely must not underestimate them."
Yang Wudi frowned, "Old Ape, this is a gathering of our four clans. I don't want any outsiders present. I have important matters to discuss with you."
A hint of confusion arose in Titan. He noticed that Yang Wudi seemed unusually irritable and short-tempered today. Although he was usually a gloomy sort, he hadn't been this dismissive before.
Seeing the new pink scar on Yang Wudi's face, Titan pondered.
"Oh dear! Old Goat, you're still the same old you. Someone Titan can bring must not be an outsider!" Seeing that the two seemed to be at an impasse, Niu Gao couldn't help but speak up.
Yang Wudi glanced at Niu Gao, "You are the host, and you don't mind, so why should I? Let them stay then."
Titan was momentarily taken aback, looking at his old friend with an unreadable expression. He gestured for Tang San and Tang Sui to sit on his side.
This time, only Tang San sat down, while Tang Sui and Ma Hongjun stood on either side of him.
After they were seated, Niu Gao turned to Yang Wudi, "Now that everyone is here, Old Goat, what's wrong with you today? Your face is as dark as the bottom of a pot."
Thinking of the unpleasant matter, Yang Wudi's expression grew even darker, as if water could congeal from it. "It's all because of those bastards from the Spirit Hall! Two of the Upper Three Sects were attacked this time, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan suffered heavy losses. Do you know about this?"
The three clan leaders exchanged glances and nodded in unison.
Yang Wudi clenched his fists, making them crackle. "Who else could be responsible for this besides those lunatics from the Spirit Hall? Now, among the Upper Three Sects, one is severely weakened, and another has suffered considerable losses. The Spirit Hall is planning to convene a grand re-election assembly for the seven great sects."
Yang Wudi poured out the story like beans from a rattle, his temper flaring as he recounted how a subordinate sect of the Spirit Hall had come looking for trouble, resulting in a fierce confrontation and mutual damage.
Then, he revealed his intention to unite the other three clans to form a new sect and jointly confront the enemy.
As soon as he finished speaking, he expected his three old friends to support him, but instead, there was an eerie silence.
Yang Wudi's brow furrowed immediately. He scanned the three of them, "What? Are you scared? If our four clans join forces, we still have nearly a thousand soul masters. With our strength, united, we would be no worse than any of the Lower Four Sects!"
Niu Gao rubbed the armrest of his seat. Looking at Yang Wudi's furious demeanor, he said, "Old Goat, you suffered a great loss this time, didn't you? It's probably more than just mutual damage?"
Yang Wudi's face turned even uglier. "A loss? More than just a loss! It's fortunate that only one of the Lower Four Sects came to cause trouble this time, but next time, they might join forces to attack my Broken Clan! If I don't take action when I return, you won't see me next year."
Titan pondered for a few seconds, a smile appearing on his face. "Old Goat, it seems our thoughts are aligned."
"Actually, the Elephant Armor Sect also came to Old Rhino the day before yesterday, claiming to offer amnesty but actually giving a show of force. Honestly, if we remain a single sect, it will be difficult to survive in the future..."
Titan began to indirectly discuss the location of the future sect in the Heaven Dou Empire and debated with Yang Wudi. In the end, Yang Wudi reserved his opinion on the economic aspect, as most of his clan's livelihoods were in the Star Luo Empire, and moving there would mean starting anew, making it difficult to get back on their feet quickly.
Titan chuckled upon hearing this, "Don't worry, supporting everyone won't be a problem."
Yang Wudi snorted, still sticking to his guns. "With the economic strength of your Strength Clan alone, can you really support all of us?"
Titan said, "Ah," "I haven't finished speaking yet, Old Goat."
Yang Wudi sat down, leaning back against the hard chair, signaling Titan to continue. He was curious to hear what he had to say.
Titan continued, "The sect we are planning to establish is called the Tang Sect. Here I was about to introduce you to the Sect Master and Vice Sect Master, but you refused to pay attention."
As he spoke, he gestured towards Tang San.
Yang Wudi was stunned for a moment, then abruptly stood up again, his eyes sharp as he looked at Tang San, "He's the Sect Master? Such an immature brat?!"
As for the Vice Sect Master, Yang Wudi chose to ignore her, believing that even if he couldn't discern her soul power cultivation, Tang Sui wouldn't pose any threat to him.
Hearing Yang Wudi's dismissive tone and offensive words, Titan's eyes darkened, and his voice took on a commanding tone, "Why not?"
Yang Wudi's brow twitched for an instant. He glared at Titan, "Old Ape, my house is on fire, and you still have the mood to joke with me?!"
Titan's expression turned grim, and he also stood up to confront Yang Wudi, "Old Goat, who is joking with you! Tang San is not only the Sect Master of our Tang Sect, but he and Vice Sect Master Tang Sui are also the children of the Master."
Yang Wudi's pupils contracted sharply. "What?! They are Tang Hao's children?"
Titan snorted but said nothing.
Yang Wudi glared fiercely at the siblings, then abruptly turned and strode out.
The two young people who had accompanied him into the reception hall quickly followed.
"Old Goat, what are you doing?" Bai He flashed and grabbed Yang Wudi's arm.
Yang Wudi grunted without turning his head, "You all have compromised with the Clear Sky School, so what else can I say? There is no place for me here. I'm leaving! Just pretend I never came today."
Bai He quickly said, "Don't be impulsive. Listen to us first. Or do you trust your old brothers this little?"
Yang Wudi and Bai He had the best personal relationship. Hearing this, his expression softened slightly. "Fine! If you want me to stay, then let that Tang San and Tang Sui leave first. And don't mention the name Tang Sect in front of me again."
Bai He's face immediately fell, because, regardless of anything else, Tang San and Tang Sui were his grandchildren.
Yang Wudi knew this relationship but didn't even give him a chance to speak, and even asked the siblings to leave so unceremoniously.
"Senior Yang Wudi, may I have a few words?" Tang San walked over from Titan's side.
Yang Wudi turned back abruptly, looking at Tang San coldly, and released an undisguised, chilling killing intent. "I swore that the Clear Sky School is my eternal enemy! Before I lose my patience, get out of here! Otherwise, don't blame me for leaving your siblings' corpses scattered for five steps."
Tang San's gaze suddenly turned cold. Before he could speak, Tang Sui took a step forward, her eyes fixed directly on Yang Wudi, and said to Bai He, "Grand Uncle, please step aside for a moment. I also want to see how Senior Yang Wudi will leave my brother and me scattered for five steps."
