Chapter 145: Five Elders Challenge Tang Xiao
"Second Uncle!"
Upon seeing the five elders, Tang Xiao jumped up from the sofa and said respectfully, "Greetings, uncles!"
The five elders were none other than the five elders of the Haotian Sect. They were all Tang Xiao's uncles, so even Tang Xiao, the Sect Master, had to show them some respect. Tang Yuehua was surprised to see them arrive and quickly asked, "Second Uncle, why are you here?"
"Haha, my niece is home, so naturally, we uncles have to come and see her."
The Second Elder stroked his beard and smiled gently at Tang Yuehua. He felt deeply for his niece.
He also knew that Tang Yuehua had been responsible for the Haotian Sect's daily expenses for years. A woman with no fighting ability, yet responsible for the entire sect's food, clothing, housing, and transportation, one could imagine the hardships and suffering she must have endured.
Hearing this, a smile crossed Tang Yuehua's face. She had previously disliked these five uncles, as they were unaware of the Spirit Hall's strength and were constantly seeking to unseal the Clear Sky Sect, unaware of the calamity this would bring.
But now, she was eager to meet the five elders, hoping they could help her persuade Tang Xiao to unseal the Clear Sky Sect and form an alliance with the Star Luo Empire.
Tang Yuehua immediately introduced them to Davis with a smile, "Your Highness, these are the five elders of our Clear Sky Sect. They are all Titled Douluo!"
Davis knew they were Titled Douluo, and he also understood that his purpose in this trip was to win over these five elders. They held immense prestige within the Clear Sky Sect; winning them over would be like winning over the entire sect!
Furthermore, they were all displeased with Tang Hao's union with spirit beasts, especially the Seventh Elder, whose son had died because of Tang Hao. Therefore, Davis didn't have to worry about them favoring Tang Hao.
In the original novel, if Tang San hadn't demonstrated his absolute strength, Tang Hao would never have been able to return to his ancestral home and the Haotian Sect.
Speaking of which, we have to mention that double-minded Tang Shenwang. Before level 60, it was all my father's fault; after level 90, my father was not at fault.
Upon seeing the five elders arrive, Davis respectfully called out, "Greetings, five elders!"
As he spoke, Davis secretly observed the five elders, secretly opening his Ice and Fire Evil Eyes to observe their cultivation levels.
The Second Elder was the strongest, with a Soul Power of level 93, perhaps on par with Dugu Bo.
Of the remaining four elders, the Seventh Elder was the weakest, with a Soul Power of only level 91, while the other three elders were all at level 92.
As he secretly observed the five elders' cultivation, the five elders also secretly checked his own. Suddenly, a glint flashed in the Second Elder's eyes, and he narrowed his gaze slightly, his lips curling slightly as he looked at Davis.
Tang Yuehua continued, "Five uncles, let me introduce you. This is the current Crown Prince of the Star Luo Empire, His Highness Davis. He's here on behalf of the Star Luo Empire, hoping to form an offensive and defensive alliance with our Haotian Sect to jointly fight against the Spirit Hall!"
The Second Elder chuckled upon hearing this and praised him generously, "I've long heard of His Highness's talent, that he's the best in the Star Luo Empire. Seeing him today, I can see that his reputation is truly well-deserved. He's so young, yet he's achieved the cultivation of a Soul Emperor." He sighed and said with emotion, "It's true that the waves behind push the waves ahead, and the waves crash on the beach. It seems we're really getting old."
The Third Elder nodded slightly and said, "Indeed, when I was His Highness's age, I was only a Soul Sect master!"
The Fifth Elder said, "Me too!"
Davis chuckled and said modestly, "Thank you for the compliments, elders. I'm just lucky and have practiced hard."
Seeing that several elders were praising Davis, Tang Yuehua spoke at the right time: "Five uncles, you came at the right time!
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came here on behalf of the Xingluo Empire, hoping to form an alliance with us. I was just trying to persuade my eldest brother, hoping that he would agree to lift the ban on the Haotian Sect, but we had different opinions.
It's just that all the uncles are here, and I also want to ask for your opinions, whether you are willing to lift the ban on the Haotian Sect and form an alliance with the Xingluo Empire."
When talking about business, the faces of the five elders became serious in an instant, and the eyes of the four elders fell on the Second Elder. The Second Elder was the strongest, and several elders were headed by him.
The Second Elder said solemnly: "To be honest, Yuehua, we have heard your conversation just now.
I think this is our chance! Once we announce the lifting of the ban on Haotian Sect, we will immediately announce our alliance with the Xingluo Empire.
In this way, even if the Spirit Hall will come to attack us again, it will have to consider whether it can fight on two fronts.
Opportunities cannot be missed! Sect Master, this is our best chance in many years, I hope you don't miss it."
"But..."
Tang Xiao was still hesitant, but before he could finish his words, the Seventh Elder interrupted him and scolded him.
"But what buts? His Royal Highness is right, the Spirit Hall is already planning to take action against Yuehua! And as Yuehua's brother, you don't even want to avenge your sister, but instead you're playing coward.
Are you worthy of Yuehua calling you 'Big Brother'? Since you're a brother, don't let your sister fall into danger!"
The Second Elder also said, "Xiao'er, since you became the Sect Master, you've become more cautious and know to think twice before acting. This is a good thing.
But over time, your overly cautious character has made you a little weak. I hope you can pull yourself together and show the world that you're still the same Xiaotian Douluo!"
The Third Elder added, "That's right! The Haotian Sect has been closed for too long. Now is the time to let its name resound throughout the entire continent!"
After thinking for a moment, Tang Xiao finally nodded and said solemnly, "Okay, I agree with you! I can announce the lifting of the ban on the Haotian Sect, but before that, I need to confirm one thing!"
After saying this, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Davis, saying, "Your Highness, you must prove to us that the Xingluo Empire is as powerful as the Haotian Sect.
After all, what we need is a comrade who can fight side by side, not a burden that requires our protection. The Xingluo Empire must prove its strength!"
"Okay! That's no problem!" Davis agreed, "I'll write to my grandparents and ask them to come to the Haotian Sect. As long as Your Majesty sees the martial soul fusion technique they perform, he will definitely recognize their strength. And I will also let Your Majesty see the powerful new army of my Xingluo Empire!"
After a pause, Davis continued: "Not only that, I will not only prove the strength of the Xingluo Empire and ally with the Haotian Sect, I will also prove that I have the ability and strength to ally with the Haotian Sect!"
"Oh?" Tang Xiao was stunned when he heard this, and said in surprise: "How do you want to prove your strength?"
"How about this? I'll give His Majesty Xiaotian a stick of incense. If Your Majesty can defeat me within that time, you can continue to ban the Haotian Sect, and I won't ask the Haotian Sect to form an alliance with the Xingluo Empire.
And if Your Majesty can't defeat me within that time, then you must immediately agree to form an offensive and defensive alliance with the Xingluo Empire. How about that? It's a good opportunity for Your Majesty to witness the strength of the younger generation of the Xingluo Empire."
