Chapter 278 - Tang Family Ancestor
Tang Xiong"s blabbermouth was full of nonsense, and he leaned towards Tang Huan, causing everyone in Tang Family to be so angry that they would choke. Especially Tang Xing, Tang Jun and the others, they were so angry that their entire bodies were trembling. After Tang Huan barged into the training grounds, he did not say anything else and attacked immediately.
"How fair and fair!"
Tang Tianren"s face turned cold, his eyes filled with uncontrollable anger, "General Tang, since the rascal is here today, then don"t even think about leaving the Tang Family. If you think about us from the same clan, don"t mess around anymore, or else, the Tang Family can only be sorry."
"I really want to see how your Tang Family will let me down!"
Tang Xiong"s face darkened as he coldly laughed.
At almost the same instant his voice fell, the sound of hurried footsteps continuously sounded out from outside the wall. It seemed as if thousands of feet stomped on the ground at the same time, causing the entire Martial Arts Practice Grounds to tremble.
In just a few moments, there were already hundreds of warriors from the Great Tang Empire in the training field.
Without even needing Tang Xiong to give the order, Tang Tianren and the rest were quickly surrounded.
The Thousand Generals Battalion that Tang Xiong brought back from the Dragon Spring Town was not an ordinary Thousand Generals Battalion. Every single soldier in the camp had rushed over from the Two Realms Plain and they all had the strength of at least the Stage Six Martial Master. When these people were released, they were all 100 or 1,000 generals.
This group of soldiers that had charged out from the mountains of corpses and the sea of blood seemed to have a terrifying murderous intent that silently filled the air.
In the next moment, all the surrounding Tang Family clansmen felt a huge pressure pressing down on them. Some of the weaker ones started to tremble with fear, their face pale white, and even the experts like Tang Tianren, Tang Tians.h.i.+ and the others all had heavy expressions.
"General Tang, are you really going to make life difficult for my Tang Family?" Tang Tianren"s voice was low, his anger could be seen between his brows.
"General Tang …"
By the side, Tang Huan could not help but ask.
Although he was grateful for Tang Xiong"s actions, this was a grudge between him and the Tang Family. He did not wish to implicate Tang Xiong and his Thousand Generals Battalion.
"It"s not that this daddy wants to go against your Tang Family, but your Tang Family wants to go with this daddy."
Seeming to know what Tang Huan wanted to say, Tang Xiong did not wait for him to finish speaking and waved his fan like big hands at him. After that, the golden spear ruthlessly smashed into the ground as he snorted coldly and shouted loudly, "I have received orders from His Majesty to protect Tang Huan. If you all want to keep Tang Huan here, you all are going to go against me. Laozi has never let anyone who wants to go against Laozi get away with it. "
"You …"
Tang Tianren was furious beyond compare. It seemed that Tang Xiong was determined to protect Tang Huan.
Under these circ.u.mstances, if they were to fight against Tang Xiong"s Thousand Generals Battalion, the Tang Family would definitely suffer heavy losses. If he lost another ten young Disciples s because of this, they might fall and never recover. They would no longer be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Gu Family and the Lu Family.
"General Tang, since you have been ordered by His Majesty to protect this rascal, this old man cannot make things difficult for you."
Just as Tang Tianren was hesitating, a sigh came out, "Now, this old man will lift the order for you." This voice was rather soft at the start. However, an instant later, it was already as loud as thunder. As the voice faded, a white figure flashed through the crowd.
It was a wizened old man with wrinkles all over his face. He looked like he was in his last years. It was as if he had stepped into a coffin.
"Grandfather!"
"Old Ancestor!"
Hearing this voice, the faces of Tang Tianren, Tang Tians.h.i.+ and the others all lit up.
The surrounding Tang Family seemed to have found a pillar to support them, as they shouted out in pleasant surprise. Their expressions relaxed a lot, the person who came was the strongest warrior in the Tang Family, and his strength was close to that of the Stage Nine Martial Saint.
It was said that he was already one hundred and forty years old, and had not left the small palace in the depths of the Tang Family for dozens of years. Few of the members of the younger generation of the Tang Family had ever seen him before.
"Tang Mochang!" Tang Xiong"s expression changed when he saw this white-robed old man. What the old man said just now especially caused him to feel that something was off.
"Peak of the eighth step Martial Lord …"
Tang Huan"s pupils constricted, but he inwardly sneered. He was indeed not a match for a peak of the eighth stage Martial Lord, but so what, who would be so stupid as to fight against him head on?
"General Tang, the Dragon Abyss Command is here, hurry up and retreat!"
Tang Mochang squinted his eyes to look at Tang Xiong and laughed indifferently, but his tone of voice carried an aura that could not be defied, and at the same time, a palm-sized, dark red jade tablet appeared in his hand. It was sparkling and transparent, and on the front of the jade tablet, a lifelike dragon head could clearly be seen.
"Dragon Lake Token?"
Tang Tianren and the rest were stunned for a moment, then immediately became excited.
That "Dragon Abyss Token" was said to be a token the Great Tang Empire gave to those who made great contributions when he was first founded. In the entire Great Tang Empire, there were only nine. The appearance of the Dragon Abyss Order was similar to the arrival of the Emperor himself. The orders given by the person holding the command medallion had to be followed by all citizens of the Great Tang Empire.
Of course, it was only once. After the order was given, the "Dragon Abyss Command" would have to be returned to the Imperial Family.
That Dragon Abyss Token had only existed in legends, and no one had ever seen it for themselves. But he never would have thought that his own grandfather would possess the Dragon Abyss Token that was bestowed by the Emperor of the Great Tang Empire when he was the founder of the Great Tang Empire.
"It"s actually a Dragon Abyss Token?"
That kind of bad premonition finally turned into reality. Tang Xiong"s face darkened and he secretly groaned in his heart as he said in a deep voice, "We need to check whether or not it"s a Dragon Lake Token!"
"General Tang, feel free to check!"
Tang Mochang raised his withered hand slightly, and the jade tablet flew towards Tang Xiong.
The iron ore that created the Dragon Abyss Token was extremely rare, as if it was an object from the Outer World. Even though it was only such a small piece, its weight had already reached over ten kilograms, and even if he wanted to copy it, he would not be able to.
Tang Huan held onto the jade tablet, his face was gloomy.
"General Tang, is this Dragon Abyss Token real?" Tang Tians.h.i.+ laughed coldly, seeing Tang Xiong like this, he felt extremely relieved.
"It"s true." Tang Xiong bitterly smiled.
"Since it"s true, then why don"t you hurry up and get the h.e.l.l out of here? Could it be that you intend to disrespect the imperial edict? " Tang Tians.h.i.+ laughed sinisterly and berated her again.
"You …" Tang Xiong flew into a rage, seemingly on the verge of cursing out loud. However, as the words left his mouth, he forcefully suppressed the anger within his heart.
"Thank you, General Tang."
Tang Huan cupped his hands towards Tang Xiong and smiled gratefully, "However, General Tang, there is no need to make things difficult for me. I can take care of the things here."
