Chapter 793: Patriarch Tang
Chapter 793: Patriarch Tang
How could someone be such an idiot!? He had just admitted to his disobedience towards the Patriarch's words, treason towards the Family rules, and even an assassination attempt against Tianlong Yun.
Did he truly believe that as long as he revealed his identity then he would be exempted from all charges!? Was there something that good in this world!?
All this time he could feel that more than one spiritual sense was trying to 'spy' on this area, and the moment that he killed all the assassins they had reacted a bit.
Now that this idiot even showed himself, they seemed to fully concentrate in this location, and one of them even tried to attack through his spirit sense.
Unfortunately for the guy, the incoming attack was just like trying to take down a tank by hitting it with small pebbles, it was completely useless and stupid.
Sensing that Tianlong Yun, or better said the black-dressed expert snickered in disdain, he immediately spread an aura and pressure that didn't seem weaker than a level 9 Great Boundary Ascension Realm.
It was clear that he wanted to make his presence known before he disappeared from his location in flames while leaving a message behind,
"Since my Young Master decided to repay the kindness and not act against the Tang Family, I expect a good explanation for what happened tonight!
Otherwise don't blame this old man for what follows!"
That pressure earlier had been enough to awaken and startle every person inside the Tang Family Mansion and holy grounds, not to mention the elders and Master Tang.
In a mere moment, all the big figures of the Tang Family had been gathered in one spot, as they looked at the scene in front of them.
It was quite a shocking sight, looking at the bodies on the ground, the blood, Tianlong Yun, Tang Li, and finally at the idiot of the night Young Master Tang Feng.
Even the old fogies of the Tang Clan had come out as they had felt the pressure that was spread from the expert that had just disappeared.
In such a moment and situation, even Master Tang could only look around and let everything in the hands of his father and the other Elders of the Tang Family.
"What happened here!? Who can explain us the situation?"
It was at this time that the beautiful Tang Li could finally awaken from her stupor and shock, as she appeared in front, bowed, and greeted,
"Junior Tang Li greets the Patriarch, Elders, and Ancestors!"
"Can you tell us what happened here, child!?"
"Yes, I have witnessed everything, this is how it happened!"
With that said Tang Li started retelling everything that happened without even the slightest change or lie.
The more they heard, the more did these old fogies think that the black-dressed Master was an existence in their rank or even higher.
But if that was the case then why didn't he stay behind and talk to them but disappeared like that without saying a word.
The situation became even more complicated and difficult the moment that Tang Li started talking about the involvement of Young Master Tang Feng in this mess.
Young Master Tang Feng was still going through that soul-rending pain that Tianlong Yun had caused him, but he had regained a bit of his clarity and senses.
Enough to try and defend himself, as he screamed in anger towards Tang Li as if his clean and upright name was being smeared by her,
"Tang Li how dare you to try and set me up like this together with that bastard! You were the reason behind all this, and you were also the one to injure me like this!"
The Patriarch, the father of Master Tang could only look at this idiot with a complicated look, as he turned his head towards a few Elders of the Family.
These guys were the closest relatives of this idiot, and also the ones that the Patriarch didn't want to displease at the moment.
"Isn't this kid supposed to be in detention Elder, what is going on here!?"
Even though his tone was cold and emotionless, the Elder that he was talking to shivered a bit in fright, as he said,
"Patriarch please punish me, this little beast had escaped his detention and done something like this! I have no words to justify my lack of attention and ability to educate this little beast!"
Even though he seemed to have shivered for a moment, this Elder was quite good to regain his senses quickly, and while he seemed to admit his mistake, it didn't seem like he made much of it.
Rather than seeing his grandson at the fault for treasons and bringing assassins to kill a guest of the Family, he looked like his son had beaten some worthless guy in the streets.
"Good, good, since you admit your inability to educate him, then I will take things into my hands!"
Hearing the lack of fear and care about this situation in the old things words startled and angered the Patriarch. Immediately after he said those words, he didn't lose time and made a move.
'Aaggghhhh~!'
Before anyone could react, the poor Young Master Tang Feng released a cry of pain before the blood came out of his mouth and his abdomen area.
Patriarch Tang had actually gone as far as to destroy Young Master Tang Feng's dantian, and cultivation, turning him into a cripple.
"Take him away and keep him alive, it will be this kid Tianlong Yun who will decide his life and death once he wakes up!"
'What!?'
A large part of the crowd couldn't believe their ears, if they weren't mistaken Patriarch Tang had just signed the worst penalty for Young Master Tang Feng.
"Patriarch don't you think you are going a bit too far!?"
Even if everyone else accepted that, how could Young Master Tang Feng's direct grandfather accept something like this?
Tang Feng was the star of his line of the Tang Family, and he was also the one who had the highest chance to become the next Family Head and Patriarch of the Tang Family.
He had used so many resources in cultivating and helping this seedling. One could say that Tang Feng was the last ray of hope he had to see his line take over the Tang Family.
For that reason, even if it meant that he had to go against the orders and the Patriarch of the Tang Family itself, he still had to do this. He wanted revenge for his grandson.
"I am going too far!?
Your precious son just cooperated with external powers, betraying the Tang Family, trying to kill one of our esteemed guests, and soon son-in-law of the Tang Family, and you think I went too far, huh!?"
"What proof is there that my grandson did all that!? Furthermore, I can't help but think that this matter is extremely suspicious, and I think my grandson was set up.
Otherwise, how could there be such an Expert alongside this kid without us knowing anything, why would he even need to join our family if he has such a guy protecting him from behind!?"
Everyone started thinking a bit more about the words of the Elder, Patriarch Tang was the same, even though he knew that this guy was just using his glib tongue to spout nonsense, the truth was that he was curious as well.
"That is even more of a reason for me to act, Elder Tang Tong. This kid has behind him, protecting him a Master that is no lower than our level.
Not only that but he had even managed to enter inside our core area without being noticed, if we don't give him a proper explanation, can you imagine the damage it would bring to my Tang Family!?"
"Hmph~! Just a person alone, what can he do against my Tang Family people! He should be happy that he didn't kill anyone from us otherwise, he was going to face our wrath.
No one can face my Tang Family in this country!"
"Certainly people can't afford to lightly go against my Tang Family, but he is an opponent that has been staying beside us, without us even noticing.
Even if our Tang Family is certain of dealing with him, just how much would my Tang Family need to suffer for that!? Are you saying that you want me to endanger my Tang Family just for that brat!?
Furthermore, don't tell me that you don't understand that is your precious grandson who is in the wrong here, and it was him who cooperated with the Yao Family to kill Tianlong Yun.
Don't tell me that you don't know who stands behind the Assassin King's Hall!?"
"This"
"Yet not only don't you accept the punishment I gave to him, but you even talked back. Are you planning of rebellion Elder Tong!?"
"This I"
"Did the cat bite your tongue, come on, tell me, Elder Tong!"
"This lowly one realized the mistake in his ways, please spare me, Patriarch!"
"Hmph~! You better enter secluded cultivation in the holy grounds for 2 years to reflect! We will talk again after that!"
"I obey Patriarch!"
Even though this guy seemed to have accepted his punishment the truth was that there was a weird spark in his eyes as if he was just biding his time.
On the other hand, once he had dealt with the Elder, the Tang Family Patriarch looked toward Tang Li and said,
"This little girl is quite intelligent, righteous, and talented, she will take that brat's quota for the Secret Pond! Are there any objections!?"
"We obey Patriarch!"
"Very well, you said your name was Tang Li, right little girl!? When this young man awakens and recovers send me word of it and stop all the useless and stupid drama that you have acted on until now!
Things are more complicated as they seem!"
