Celestial 'War God' Return-Chapter 268: Tang Xiao - Tang Huang

Tang Huang met with Tang Xiao, who was training Yu Xiaoling, Zhao Yuxian, and Jessica to hone their fighting skills. He informed his grandson of the decision of the first-rank clan leaders for the meeting to be held next week. "Although our Tang Clan is a second-rank clan, I will attend the meeting, and I will reveal the evidence to them. Wang Fuxi will also attend the meeting, but Long Yin will not be there. He sent his sister, Long Xianyin, to represent him."

"Long Xianyin?" Tang Xiao was immediately interested in it because he needed help to weaken Long Yin.

"Are you thinking of using Long Xianyin against Long Yin?"

"Yes," Tang Xiao admitted it. "I’m open to all means so I can deal with Long Yin much faster, including using those closest to him. After I deal with him, I will kill Ouyang Hong. After resolving all previous issues, we will fully concentrate on our cultivation and training, and we will leave Earth much sooner than originally estimated."

Tang Huang understood Tang Xiao’s wishes, but he didn’t want his grandson to use people who had nothing to do with the matter between them and Long Yin, including Long Xianyin. "Xiao’er—"

"Grandpa, I don’t care whether Long Xianyin had anything to do with my parents’ deaths or not." Tang Xiao’s gaze was filled with hatred after he remembered the incident 19 years ago. "Long Yin was the main perpetrator in that night’s incident, and those people were able to do such atrocious things to my mother and kill my father because he helped them stop you and my master. Since he helped them to destroy my family, I will use all means to destroy him and his Long Clan, including using his sister."

Tang Huang let out a heavy sigh and patted his grandson’s shoulder. "Xiao’er, I understand your hatred for Long Yin, but—"

"I won’t change my mind, Grandpa." Tang Xiao clenched his fist tightly until his skin turned red. "I didn’t do anything to Ran Xue, Ran Yue, Yao Yao, Yang Ziyue, and Shen Ling because they were ordinary women who were unaware of their parents’ heinous actions. However, Long Yin and the Long Clan are different from them, and I’m sure Long Xianyin knows her big brother’s actions in helping those people, so she is just as responsible as her brother. For that reason, I will not hesitate to use her, and I will destroy the Long Clan to its roots in the future."

Even though he didn’t like it, Tang Huang could see the seriousness in his grandson’s eyes. "What about Wang Fuxi?"

"Wang Fuxi, right?" Tang Xiao muttered with a cold tone and a glimmer of hatred in his eyes. "She is no different from Long Yin because she stopped Aunt Yuan and Feng Yao from saving my parents, and I will also make her feel my suffering for 19 years by destroying her Wang Clan in the future."

"Are you also going to kill Wang Fuxi?"

"Why should I kill Wang Fuxi?" Tang Xiao shook his head at his grandfather. "Death is too easy a punishment for her and Long Yin, so I will never kill them; instead, I will cripple the cultivation they have built over the years. That way, they will understand my suffering over the past 19 years, and they will regret their past actions for the rest of their lives."

Tang Huang grabbed his grandson’s shoulder tightly and spoke to him. "Honestly, I don’t agree with you doing that to Wang Fuxi because she has done so much good, and ordinary humans would have long suffered because of cultivators if not for her."

"Grandpa, you must remember that Wang Fuxi let your only son die at the hands of those people, and they also did such cruel things to your daughter-in-law before trying to kill her. That incident would not have occurred if Wang Fuxi had not stopped Aunt Yuan from saving them, so she must be held responsible for it." Tang Huang furrowed his brows in response to Tang Xiao’s statement. "Is that woman more important to you than their suffering? Are those ordinary humans more important than their lives?"

Naturally, Tang Ye and Zhao Qing were far more important to Tang Huang than anyone else, but he didn’t want Tang Xiao to escalate the situation by doing something like that to Wang Fuxi. If anything happened to her, the cultivators from Earth II would be free to roam the outside world, with no one to stop them.

"Grandpa, you didn’t witness what happened that night, but I witnessed the way those people treated my late mother with my own eyes, and I will never be able to forget that event for the rest of my life. I hope you can understand my decision regarding Wang Fuxi, and I will never change my mind." Tang Xiao shifted his grandfather’s hand from his shoulder and turned to leave. "When I reach her level, I will give her the most painful retribution by killing the members of her Wang Clan before her eyes, and I will cripple her cultivation after killing them."

Tang Huang could only sigh after Tang Xiao left the training ground. He wanted to take revenge on the two people who had caused the deaths of his son and daughter-in-law. However, he still had the public interest in mind, so he never considered taking revenge on Wang Fuxi, and he only wanted revenge on Long Yin.

"We won’t be able to change Xiao’er’s mind, Old Huang." Tang Huang turned to Tantai Lingyan. "Like you, I also dislike the idea of him attacking Wang Fuxi and harming her Wang Clan, but his heart is already filled with hatred due to his parents’ death."

"Yeah," Tang Huang then asked her. "Do you think we can stop Xiao’er from taking action against Wang Fuxi and her Wang Clan? I don’t care if he kills Long Yin and slaughters his Long Clan, but I don’t want him to do those things to her and her Wang Clan."

Tantai Lingyan shook her head at him. "Xiao’er has changed, and he possesses the void element, so we will never be able to stop him. The only way I can think of is to warn Wang Fuxi about this matter, but I’m sure Xiao’er won’t like it if we do that, and she will try to eliminate him before he reaches her level."

"So, what should we do to prevent that from happening?"

"I don’t know," Tantai Lingyan replied with a shake of her head. "I don’t want anything to happen to Wang Fuxi because she is the protector of mortals, but I don’t want anything to happen to Xiao’er even more, as he is my son. For now, we have to think about the best way to resolve the problem between them, and we might find a solution to this problem in the future."

Tang Huang nodded in agreement. "Let’s continue our training! I am Xiao’er’s grandfather, so I can’t let him fight Long Yin and the Long Clan alone, and I must accompany him to fight them in the future."

"Me too."

Tang Xiao had already arrived at his room in the residence, and he immediately sat down on the bed, thinking about his conversation with Tang Huang earlier. However, he was already firm in his decision regarding Long Yin, Wang Fuxi, the Long Clan, and the Wang Clan.

*Swoosh*

"Big brother," Tang Xiao turned to Mu Yan. "Why is your face so serious? Are you thinking about something complicated?" 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"Yes." Tang Xiao pulled her to sit beside him. "I’m thinking about my parents’ deaths, and I’m also thinking about the people involved in their deaths."

"Long Yin, right?" After Tang Xiao nodded, Mu Yan hugged his arm and leaned her head on his shoulder. "Big brother, I know I’m still weak now, but I will strive to become strong, and I will help you face that man."

Tang Xiao was delighted after hearing Mu Yan’s words and hugged her. "Yan’er, I know you want to help me, but I don’t want you to get involved in this matter. I will become as strong as Long Yin in the future, and I will challenge him to a one-on-one fight then."

"But—"

"Shh." Tang Xiao placed two fingers on her lips, causing her to blush. "Even though the cultivation world is cruel and harsh, I don’t want you to get your hands drenched in blood, let alone become a murderer like me. I love your innocence, and I will protect you from harm so you will never change."

Mu Yan pulled his hand down and hugged him. "Big brother, I can’t continue being an innocent little girl, let alone live under your protection forever. I will be a grown woman in the future, and I will go to various places to deepen my experiences, so I must be able to protect myself."

"Haha." Tang Xiao pinched her nose. "You’ll have to work hard to do that, and you can’t just focus on your cultivation. You also have to constantly hone your combat skills. In a few days, I’ll take you back to Earth II, and we’ll train in the forest to fight beasts. Are you interested in fighting them?"

"Yes!" Mu Yan replied enthusiastically. "My mother once took me to fight beasts, but that was a long time ago, and I want to fight them again to hone my fighting skills."

Tang Xiao nodded slightly. "Alright, we’ll be leaving in a few days."
