Chapter 473: Chapter 469: Return to Red Cloud
Even more concerning was that Gong Zheng and the members of the Righteous Business Group were all on Red Cloud Mountain. Although they didn’t lack for food, even a single case of malaria could lead to the entire Righteous Gang being wiped out. In just two months, the circumstances on Red Cloud Mountain had becthis severe. It was truly a horrifying development.
Under these circumstances, there was no tto consider the risks to oneself. Immediate action had to be taken.
Tang Luo went directly to the Spirit Beast Garden to bring out a languid Cloud Crossing beast that had been idle for two years. He then rode atop the beast and began to operate it.
Fog arose, enveloping Tang Luo and the Divine Monarch spirit beast as it streaked across the sky towards the east. Their destination was the direction of Red Cloud Village.
The moment the Cloud Crossing beast took to the sky, the Wind Media Department’s alarm began to sound. Tang Luo’s sudden departure left the Wind Media Department flustered because he was one of the most vital individuals within the clan.
“Hurry and notify Martial Ancestor Tang Qian. Tang Luo has ridden the Cloud Crossing beast directly towards Red Cloud Mountain!” Tang Feng, the Sect Head, issued the order the moment he received the news.
Soon, a golden light shot forth from another mountain and disappeared into the white clouds, heading eastward.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe speedy Cloud Crossing beast quickly arrived at the Du Family’s territory on Red Cloud Mountain. Tang Luo dismounted without hesitation and faced a few Du Family warriors who were on high alert, saying, “Taketo the Du Family’s current decision maker.”
“Tang Tianjiao has forcefully intruded into the Du Family’s territory without prior notice. He dares to disrespect the Du Family and treat us as if we are nobody!” The leading warrior of phase-transformed warriors did not intend to escort Tang Luo to the Du Family’s decision-maker. Instead, he angrily questioned Tang Luo’s actions.
The Du Family was in a state of gloom and decline. Respect and honour mattered more than anything else to the current Du Family’s warriors. They were like ticking tbombs, ready to explode at any provocation, refusing to give way even when dealing with the renowned Pride of Xiling.
Stroubles are tougher than meeting the devil himself. On a normal day, Tang Luo would have politely apologized to these Du warriors, but now the situation was urgent, he didn’t have tto deal with these thugs. He activated his Undying Battle Body, and a five-meter tall silver giant appeared in the central area of the Du Family’s territory. A sound wave, as loud as a prehistoric bell, erupted and resonated within a ten-mile radius.
Tang Luo, with his built-in sound system, didn’t need someone else to announce his arrival. If others wouldn’t do it, he would do it himself.
“Tang Luo requests to see the Du Family’s elders!”
The massive sound wave that exploded in the middle of the Du Family’s territory attracted the attention of countless Du family members. They just had to look towards the sound to see a grey giant donned in armor bestowed by heaven. The giant’s strong and martial body attracted everyone’s gaze just by standing there.
The Du Family warriors might not have encountered such a situation before. They were stunned and could only look up at the towering silver giant with a dazed expression.
Fight this monstrosity? No way. Even the warriors who were only as tall as the giant’s knees quivered at merely the sight of it.
The sound wave spread in all directions. Shortly after, an elegantly dressed elderly man with white hair appeared and said to Tang Luo in a deep voice, “I am Du Ling. I’ve long heard of Tang Tianjiao’s great name. Today, I indeed see that you are domineering. I wonder, for what matter did you cto the Du Family’s territory?”
Looking at the warrior before him who possessed a spiritual power of 62,000 points, it was impossible not to deduce that this was one of the three elders of the Du Family. From a distance of five meters, the silver giant looked straight into Du Ling’s eyes and said calmly, “I chere to talk about a matter that concerns the Du Family’s survival. I ask that Elder Du Ling convene with the other Du Family elders. We can discuss this in the meeting hall two hours from now.”
Ignoring Du Ling’s expression, Tang Luo dissolved his Undying Battle Body, put on his Black Gold Spirit Armor, and rode his Cloud Crossing Beast directly towards the Righteous Gang’s base.
The way that Tang Luo cand went as he pleased, treating the Du Family as if they were nothing, thoroughly infuriated sof the Du Family warriors. Especially the one who had questioned Tang Luo earlier. After watching a grave-faced Du Ling descend, he exclaimed bitterly, “Tang Luo arrogantly calls himself the Pride of Xiling. First, he deceived our clan leader into accepting the people of Xiling, then disappeared without a word for two months. Now he appears with complete disregard for anyone else. He shames our clan leader who constantly works for the welfare of a million civilians, while they keep praising Tang Luo. He is absolutely shameless!”
Du Ling turned to look at Du Han. This hopeful warrior of the family was staring venomously in the direction where the Cloud Crossing Beast had left. The old man sighed helplessly, patted Du Han on the shoulder, and no longer spoke.
Ever since Du Sha revealed the possibility of the Du Family ending with their generation, the entire Du Clan had fallen into extremotions of volatility, anger, sensitivity, jealousy, and more.
These negative emotions were consuming the minds of the Du Family warriors. Du Sha had originally thought that a great enlightenment would occur after openly sharing the truth, but instead, it led many family members to self- destruct.
To the point where now, even when facing the Pride of Xiling and the legitimate successor of the Tang Clan, they would insolently speak ill of him behind his back. One could argue whether this should be called courage or stupidity. Du Ling helplessly shook his head. Initially, he’d thought Tang Luo was being arrogant because of his fas the Pride of Xiling and even criticized him. However, considering that the Tang Clan had the powerful Wind Media Department, wouldn’t they know the current situation of the Du Family?
At the present time, the Du Family only had one life-or-death matter.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA burning hope suddenly surged in the elder’s eyes. Even though he knew the hope was dim, he still wished that his guess was correct. He instructed another Du Family warrior, “Yi Xuan, inform the Great Elder and the Second Elder to go to the meeting hall for a discussion in two hours.”
Du Yi Xuan left after receiving his orders, but was called back. When he turned around with a puzzled look,
“Wait!” Du Ling sighed, and with a conflicted expression said, “Also inform the former clan leader.”
Although the three elders had stripped Du Sha of his clan leader status, they still considered Du Sha the real hope of the Du Family. For a situation related to their survival, how could they not inform him?
On the other hand, after leaving the Du Family, Tang Luo arrived at the base of the Righteous Gang. Just outside Red Cloud Village, over ten thousand people had set up camp on a small hill. Caves were carved out on the hillside, making it look like a beehive from a distance. Iron chains connected the caves, making it look like aspread out on the hillside.
Gong Zheng had rushed out to greet him as soon as he heard the loud sound coming from the Du Family’s compound. When he saw Tang Luo landing on the mountain, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Ever since Tang Luo had assigned tasks at the eastern gate and then disappeared for two months, the Righteous Gang’s leader had been feeling extremely anxious. Especially since the flood had not stopped, his fear had grown with each passing day. It was only now, upon seeing Tang Luo, that he was finally able to relax.
Gong Zheng’s face was full of excitement. He looked like a housewife seeing her husband return after a long wait and said respectfully, “Young master, you’re finally here.”
“Mm, you’ ve worked hard during these days, and you’ve done very well.” Tang Luo knew very well how difficult it was to manage ten thousand people, especially when many of them were old, frail, women, and children, while the number of available warriors was limited. However, seeing how orderly things were in the camp now, he knew Gong Zheng had done an excellent job. It was a pleasant surprise, and thus, he did not hesitate to praise Gong Zheng.
But given the urgency of the situation, he didn’t have tfor small talk. He said directly, “I’m giving you two hours to gather all the literate brothers in the Righteous Gang. After that, have them congregate in the direction of the main peak of Red Cloud Mountain, in the Du Family’s territory.”
