Celestial 'War God' Return-Chapter 306: Meet Three Seniors

After he observed the three women for a while, Tang Xiao jumped down from the tree and went to an area not far from them, but a huge black bear with a cultivation in the Lower King Realm suddenly blocked his way.

Since the black bear had the earth element, Tang Xiao hurriedly created a fire sword and struck it first. With his fire element having reached level five, coupled with the passive effect of his Celestial Body Technique, making his attacks several times stronger.

With a single slash, Tang Xiao’s attack wounded the bear beast’s chest, and blood flowed profusely from the wound. He used the Gale Steps, moved quickly behind the beast, and beheaded it.

After examining the beast’s head and being unable to find a beast core, Tang Xiao continued to another area and searched for wild beasts equal to or stronger than the black bear.

[Master, Feng Xiaofang, Zhang Fei, and Sun Qian are on their way to another forest.] Tang Xiao was a little surprised by this. [Your grandfather told them about your training location, and they probably wanted to see your fighting abilities.]

Tang Xiao didn’t think much about the three men’s goals because they were Tang Huang’s best friends, and he also wanted to meet them to discuss Xiao Luo and Xie Jun. While waiting for the arrival of the three at his location, he fought with several wild beasts that blocked his way.

Sometime later, Feng Xiaofang, Zhang Fei, and Sun Qian arrived at the forest, but they didn’t show up and watched everyone training from behind the trees.

Tang Huang, Mu Lin, Feng Yao, and Tang Yuan noticed the three men’s arrival, but they did not greet them and focused on protecting Yu Xiaoling and the others.

"Oh? Old Mu seems interested in that woman."

Sun Qian agreed with Zhang Fei. "That woman also seems interested in Old Mu, but her cultivation and combat abilities indicate that she’s a novice cultivator."

"Haha," Feng Xiaofang laughed. "Whether that woman is a novice or experienced cultivator doesn’t matter, right? What’s important is that they like each other, and Old Mu can help her to improve her abilities."

"Yes."

Zhang Fei pointed to Yu Xiaoling, Jessica, Zhao Yuxian, and Zhao Qing, who were training under the guidance of Tang Huang, Feng Yao, and Tang Yuan. "Those three women are also novice cultivators, like the woman with Old Mu."

"They’re still afraid of facing those beasts, and their fighting skills are still too low, making it difficult for them to read their movements. However, the speed of those three women is not that of beginner cultivators, as I’ve never seen beginner cultivators move as fast as them," Sun Qian commented.

Unlike them, Feng Xiaofang was more interested in his daughter, Feng Yao, whose cultivation had already increased by one minor stage to the Middle Emperor Level. ’How come Yao’er’s cultivation has improved again? When she last returned to our clan, my wife said that her cultivation was still at the lower level, but she had reached the middle level now.’

After observing the four women for a few minutes, Feng Xiaofang and the other two immediately went to another area, where they saw Tang Yin, Sun Xiang, and Xing Xing fighting wild beasts by themselves.

"Your granddaughter’s cultivation is already at the Peak Xiantian Level, but her fighting ability is disappointing, Old Sun and Old Zhang." Sun Qian and Zhang Fei couldn’t say anything in response to Feng Xiaofang because Sun Xiang really didn’t like fighting. "That girl is Old Huang’s granddaughter, right?"

"Yes," Sun Qian nodded at him. "Her name is Tang Yin, and she has only been cultivating for a month and a half. She is much better than Xiang’er at fighting, and she doesn’t have the slightest hesitation in any of her attacks. Moreover, her speed is exceptional, and her attacks accurately hit those beasts’ weaknesses."

"I didn’t expect that Tang Yin would have the darkness element, and people would hunt her down if they knew about it." Zhang Fei spoke with a serious expression.

"People mistakenly believe that all righteous cultivators are heretics due to past problems, but in reality, not all of them are like that, and some are more dignified than those who claim to be righteous cultivators." Sun Qian and Zhang Fei agreed with Feng Xiaofang, who then pointed to Xing Xing. "That girl is also a novice cultivator, but her mentality is much better than the previous five women’s. Although she seemed reluctant to kill those wild beasts, she was aware of the situation and immediately killed them."

They then searched the area around them for Tang Xiao, but they couldn’t find him. "Where—"

"I’m here." Feng Xiaofang, Sun Qian, and Zhang Fei jumped in surprise and turned around to see Tang Xiao smiling to himself. "Hehe! Long time no see, Grandpa Zhang and Uncle Feng. If I had to guess, the other one is Grandpa Sun, right?"

Sun Qian nodded to Tang Xiao. "Your face truly resembles your late father, and I feel like I’m standing opposite him, Xiao’er."

"Since I was little, everyone has said the same thing to you. After my parents died, I always looked at my face in the mirror when I missed my father." Tang Xiao sighed sadly, thinking about his father’s death in the past. "Even though it’s been a long time, I still feel sad over my parents’ deaths. Although I can’t kill some of them now, I’ve killed everyone involved in their murders, and I will kill the rest in the future."

Sun Qian grabbed his shoulder. "I’ve heard all about your revenge from Old Huang and Tantai Lingyan, and I’m glad you didn’t kill anyone indiscriminately. We are cultivators, so we shouldn’t act like those ordinary humans who love war and invade other countries for their interests and profits, which brings destruction and sorrow to countless people. We can kill those who harm us or our families, but we must spare those who are innocent."

"Haha," Tang Xiao scratched the back of his head. "I would be delighted if only Sun Xiang had your understanding, Grandpa Sun. She tried to stop me repeatedly, even though I never killed innocent people, and I only killed those involved in my parents’ murder."

Sun Qian nodded slightly and pulled his hand back. "Xiang’er has been like that since she was little, and she’s really not suited to the life of a cultivator. Unfortunately, it’s her destiny because she was born into a family of cultivators, so she can’t be like that forever."

"She has started to change, but she still needs time to become a true cultivator. I hope she can accept her situation as soon as possible, or her mindset will become a problem for her in the future." Sun Qian agreed with Tang Xiao. "By the way, Xiao Luo and the people from the Xiao Clan have started to be affected by the effects of my pills, as well as Xie Jun and some people from the Xie Clan. I want to do something to them, but they’re too strong for me right now, so I need your help with that."

"What kind of pills did you give them?" Feng Xiaofang asked him.

Tang Xiao explained the effects of the Five Viscera Pill and the Heart Illusion Pill to them, which caused their jaws to drop after hearing the effects of the first pill. "I don’t understand alchemy, and I got these two pills from my late master’s legacy. The second pill’s effects will take effect tonight, so I think we should act then, and I’ll do something about them."

"What are your next plans for them?"

"I can’t explain that to the three of you, but my next plan will make it easier for us to monitor the Xie Clan." The three senior cultivators were curious about Tang Xiao’s plans, but he didn’t want to explain to them about Xiao Ai, the Primordial Divine Ark, and all the equipment there. "We will meet at the Sun Clan tonight, and we will go to the Xiao Clan together."

Sun Qian immediately informed him. "Two people from the Wang Clan are protecting my clan from behind, and they will report to Wang Fuxi if they recognize you. That woman is still eager to find you, so I think it will be dangerous for you."

"Grandpa Sun, I know your worries, but I’m sure they won’t recognize me." Tang Xiao looked at Zhang Fei. "Isn’t that right, Grandpa Zhang?"

"Haha," Zhang Fei laughed as he grabbed Sun Qian’s shoulder. "If people could recognize him, they should have done so back at the auction house, Old Sun. No one present there knew that he was wearing a disguise, and I wouldn’t have known that he was Xiao’er either if he and Old Shen hadn’t told me back then, so you don’t need to worry about that."

Sun Qian nodded in understanding. "Although your disguise is excellent, you still have to be careful of the people from the Wang Clan, and Wang Fuxi will make a move against you if you are careless."

"I understand, Grandpa Sun." Tang Xiao looked at the herd of beasts gathered below them. "In that case, I’ll continue my training now, and I’ll meet you three at the Sun Clan tonight."

"Alright."

Feng Xiaofang, Zhang Fei, and Sun Qian did not leave the area immediately, and they watched Tang Xiao fight with those wild beasts first.

After they were satisfied with that, the three men immediately left the forest and returned to the Sun Clan, waiting for Tang Xiao to come to them tonight.
