Chapter 187 - 187: 183: Clan Council (5)

Translator: 549690339

Tang Hongtao had never imagined that an ordinary family council meeting would go so awry. Tang Luo had directly confronted and ridiculed the Great Elder. This was equivalent to stirring up a storm in heaven.

He understood better than anyone that threats rooted in the hierarchical status of being a clan elder wouldn’t dissuade Tang Luo. A person who, upon entering the Secret Arts Pavilion, dared to accuse all the elders of seeking fand reputation would not retreat because of threats regarding hierarchical status. But if the situation escalated, Tang Siyuan certainly wouldn’t back down, and Tang Luo’s elder status would surely be revoked. At that point, it was uncertain whether he would still share his research with the Secret Arts Pavilion. The rashness of youth was unpredictable. This would be a great loss for the Tang Clan because Tang Luo was the only one who knew the technique of single-person fusion. Not to mention the numerous martial arts he had traded for his position as an elder.

Every skill practiced by the Mortal Realm members of the Tang Clan had been modified by Tang Luo. It was too much to strip him of his elder status for just one act of defiance!

Just as Tang Hongtao was about to persuade again, he heard Tang Luo sneer. He arrogantly pointed at Tang Hongtao and said, “The elders have the power to strip the status of a clan elder. But if 1 remember correctly, this requires the signatures of at least five elders. I’m giving you the opportunity, right here and now. Find the other four elders and stripof my status!”

There was another uproar. The color drained from Tang Hongtao’s face. He couldn’t believe that Tang Luo would so boldly retaliate against the Great Elder. He was also well aware of Tang Siyuan’s influence. It might be a difficult task for other elders to collect five signatures, but over the many years in his position as an elder, he had formed many alliances, which could beca significant force at a tlike this.

Tang Luo might becthe pillar of the Tang Family in the future, but for now, he couldn’t outperform the higher-ranking elders. Once his position as an elder was stripped, it would be incredibly hard to regain. It would be regretful if the young pride of the Tang Clan lost so much because of a minor dispute. Tang Hongtao was about to persuade Tang Luo when he was interrupted by the angry rebuke of Great Elder Tang Siyuan!

“Young and ignorant! Becoming arrogant just because you possess the title of Pride of Xiling and stalent in modifying martial arts techniques! Today, I will show you why I hold the title of Elder!” Tang Siyuan glared angrily at Tang Luo. He stood up suddenly and shouted, “Today, I will remove Tang Luo’s elder status. Who is in favor and who opposes?”

As an elder who had held power for over a hundred years, he had seen countless so-called prides. Deep down, he didn’t think they were all that impressive. Perhaps the idea of a thirteen-year-old breaking through to the Mortal Realm might sound impressive to outsiders, but to him, it was just a matter of timing. He had seen many young talents rise and then slowly fade. He didn’t believe that Tang Luo, who was simultaneously studying martial arts and practicing martial arts, would achieve any significant success.

After all, Tang Luo had not awakened his bloodline and the accumulation during his period of transmigration wouldn’t be as brilliant as those in the Mortal Realm! There’s indeed a world of difference between transmigration at thirteen and seventeen. However, there’s hardly any essential difference between reaching the Fierce Realm at the age of forty or forty-four.

As Tang Siyuan’s angry voice rang out, a few elders who owed him enormous favors gritted their teeth and were about to raise their hands, showing support. After all, they had to repay the favors they owed, and Tang Luo was just a junior. Even if there were sminor injustices, there were ways to compensate for them.

The elders were savvy from their vast experience. They realized in an instant who to side with and decided to remain silent. They knew it was only crucial to let Tang Siyuan vent his anger. Compensation for Tang Luo could be managed through political maneuvers. Just take away a little, then give back a little more, the elders’ silent glances exchanged their understanding.

Tang Luo watched as a few elders began to slowly raise their hands, a cold smirk in his heart.

He understood that these elders did not hold any animosity towards him; they were merely considering their own interests. He was still a junior, and even if he was wronged, so what? Could it cause a rebellion? Watching as the Mountain Chief, Chief Elder, and the Clan Chief remained silent, he found it ridiculous.

Everyone figured it makes more sense to offend him than to offend Tang Siyuan. After all, even if he grew to be the pillar of the Tang Clan, that wouldn’t happen for several decades. By that time, they wouldn’t even be sure whether they would still hold their positions. Even if he gained power, there would be nothing he could do to them.

But seeing that Tang Hongtao was the only supporter in the room arguing for him, Tang Luo was filled with unspoken fury. Offending him seemed better than offending Tang Siyuan? What terribly misguided logic!

“Let’s see which elders are planning to stripof my status!” Tang Luo sneered, his words squeezed harshly between gritted teeth.

The spiritual power stored in the Marshal Star was released, and the aura of a primordial realm’s peak exploded out. The sharp aura was like a knife, slashing across everyone’s faces!

“Unity of spirit and intent, reaching the peak of the Mortal Realm!” Tang Bin exclaimed in shock, staring at Tang Luo’s aura.

He was the one who felt Tang Luo’s aura the deepest because he was still working towards reaching the peak of the Mortal Realm. He knew very well that reaching the peak of the Mortal Realm was not just about accumulating spiritual power, but also about establishing an understanding of the martial arts essence. This is the most important step for cultivating the soul and once they reach the Fierce Realm, they can manifest the soul. Speople have souls like swords, slike mountains, which is the display of a martial arts will solidified to the extreme. Before the Fierce Realm, the most significant manifestation of martial arts will was an aura!

Tang Luo’s sharp aura, which signified unity of spirit and intent, suggested an extremely domineering martial arts will. Furthermore, he knew how well Tang Luo could control his spiritual power. That meant he was no match for Tang Luo in combat.

When this sword-like, sharp aura sliced across everyone’s faces, those elders who were halfway to raising their hands froze. They had never heard of a fifteen-year-old reaching the peak of Mortal Realm in their long lives. They were staggered by the speed of his progress. How long would it take for him to reach the Fierce Realm – six years or eight? Even if it took eight years, a twenty-three-year-old Fierce Realm expert could almost certainly assure a future in the King Realm. They didn’t dare imagine the potential terror of a King Realm expert from a distinguished family, their hearts began to warm up to the idea!

Strip him of his elder status? They were now more inclined to worship Tang Luo!

In just a moment, the situation had completely reversed.

“Great Elder, this is a place for family affairs, not for you to show off your might!” Standing up, the Chief of the Elders accused Tang Siyuan.

The Mountain Chief also spoke up, “Yes, Great Elder, Luo’s ingenious Five Acre Land strategy is extraordinary and should be promoted vigorously!”

As the Mountain Chief and Chief of the Elders spoke, a few elders who were about to raise their hands quickly pulled back, advising, “Great Elder, Elder Luo works tirelessly for the development of the Tang Clan. Young people are naturally impetuous and punishing him for a minor verbal clash is too harsh!” “Yes, indeed, Great Elder, calm your anger, and Elder Luo, you too. This is all just a misunderstanding. How could we agree to strip Elder Luo of his status? After all, both of you are pillars of the Tang Clan, and we can’t do without either of you!” Tang Gaomin added, hoping to curry favor.

As the elder in charge of finances, he had the closest temperament to a businessman. Seeing the impressive aura emanating from Tang Luo, he was overjoyed, feeling as if he had discovered a priceless artifact on the road. At this moment, even if Tang Luo merely passed wind, it would smell sweet to him..
