The next morning, Tang Lichuan's bedroom door creaked open and Tang Lichuan was wearing a fur coat. His face was sickly and pale, unlike the cold-blooded avenger from last night.

"Young Master." When the servants who were watering the flowers in the courtyard saw Tang Lichuan, they were actually stunned for a few seconds before bowing. They did not have the awareness of a servant that should have seen their master at all.

It was not the fault of these servants that they were rude. It could only be said that a person's heart was filled with power. It was only natural for them to be tempted by the flames. The news of his Dantian being crippled must have already spread last night.

Right now, the opportunity for one to step onto the martial path, and even enter the great clan's Profound Dragon Sect that everyone had been looking forward to, had clearly already fallen into the hands of the other Young Master, Tang Fei, of the Tang Family.

Tang Family was not a martial cultivation family, in the entire Tang Family, there was not a single clan member who was qualified to step onto the road of martial arts. Now that Second Master Tang Jingtao's son had the qualifications, then the power of Tang Family was already a piece of cake, who would be willing to get close to Tang Lichuan who was about to lose their power in Tang Family.

Tang Lichuan silently raised his head to look at the sky. In the dark blue sky, a visible golden light barrier seemed to cover the entire sky, and it was obvious that the people here were already accustomed to this unusual situation.

Looking at the golden light screen, Tang Lichuan silently thought: "In two more years, the calamity will descend once again."

Legend has it that every hundred years, a calamity would descend upon this land, a nightmare for all living creatures. Without the protection of a martial arts sect, no matter how rich and wealthy an ordinary person was, they would still die in the face of this calamity.

"Master, the elder wants you to go to the hall to discuss a matter." While he was in a daze, a grey robed servant quickly walked over and greeted Tang Lichuan respectfully.

"Got it." Tang Lichuan indifferently pulled on the fur coat that was draped over his shoulders. He already had a general idea of the elder's goal, and laughed to himself: "As expected, old fellows can't sit still anymore."

When he arrived at the great hall, everyone who had the qualifications to speak had already taken their seats. Other than his father Tang Yunyi and his uncle Tang Jingtao, there were also three elders in their seventies.

Everyone who should be here was present, except Tang Fei, who had injured him and thrown him off the cliff a few days ago.

"Father, Elder." Tang Lichuan walked into the great hall and paid respects to the higher ups of the Tang Family. As if he had forgotten the existence of his uncle, he sat down on his own seat.

"A trash who looks down on others!" You are a cripple and yet you still dare to be so arrogant! " Tang Jingtao's eyelids twitched, he was furious at Tang Lichuan's disregard and started cursing inwardly.

When Tang Lichuan arrived, the three clan elders looked at each other, and in the end, one of the grizzled hair clan elders nodded his head, revealing a kind smile towards Tang Lichuan, and asked: "Chuan Er, now that you are not young anymore, you should contribute to the clan, you know that my Tang Family has many properties, I wonder if you are interested in helping us old bones to share our worries?"

The elder said this in a euphemistic manner. He was actually trying to chase him out of the clan and send him to a remote place to be a small supervisor!

As the Patriarch of the Tang Family, Tang Yunyi naturally didn't wish for his son to be sent out to be treated as a supervisor, but right now, he was already unable to cultivate, and had completely lost the qualifications to compete with Tang Fei. Even if he wanted to protect Tang Lichuan, he couldn't think of a valid reason.

"Sharing the clan's burden is the duty of every Tang Family descendant. However, taking care of the businesses is a small matter and I'm not too interested in it. If you join the Profound Dragon Sect and fight for the glory of our ancestors, you'd be more than willing to do so." Tang Lichuan tugged at the corner of his cashmere clothes, laughed lightly, and slowly replied.

"Ha!" Hearing that, Tang Jingtao could not help but laugh out, and mocked Tang Lichuan: "My good nephew, looks like you are not aware of the reality, you are just a cripple with your dantian crippled, you will never be able to cultivate in your entire life, what need is there for you to enter Profound Dragon Sect? "Your wish will be fulfilled by your cousin Tang Fei. You can go out of the country and be a steward, or else you'll just have to wait for your death!"

"Tang Jingtao! If it wasn't for your son committing murder, my son wouldn't be in such a predicament! "And now, you still hide Tang Fei and refuse to accept the punishment imposed by the clan rules, disregarding the teachings of your family's ancestors. How can you have the face to mock my son with cold words!" Tang Yunyi slammed his hand on the table, he stood up and shouted!

"Humph!" martial cultivator competition where fists and feet have no eyes! Who told your son to be so unskilled? If you have the ability, then cripple my son. I, Tang Jingtao will definitely not protect his weakness! "

Tang Jingtao was fearless at this moment. Facing Tang Yunyi, who was initially a little afraid, he completely disregarded the other party's identity as the Patriarch and said loudly: "Besides, a martial cultivation genius rarely appears in my Tang Family. If I were to punish Tang Fei for a small mistake and delay the major event of me entering the Profound Dragon Sect, who would be responsible! There were only two years left before that calamity! If we can't get the protection of the Profound Dragon Sect, could it be that we are waiting to be killed? "

When Tang Jingtao's righteous words landed in Tang Lichuan's ears, it only made him even angrier. When Tang Fei had invited him to the competition in the name of sparring, but before the fight even began, Tang Lichuan felt a sharp pain on the back of his head. It was obvious that he had been set up by Tang Fei's sneak attack, and with his last bit of consciousness, he realized that he had been thrown off the cliff by Tang Fei's order.

Did Tang Jingtao, as Tang Fei's father, not know about this? To think that he actually dared to say that Tang Lichuan and Yue Shan was participating in a fair competition, that was too shameless.

After saying that, one of the three clan elders immediately chimed in, and advised Tang Yunyi: "Calm down, since it has already happened, there is nothing we can do to redeem the responsibility of investigating the situation. As the family head of the Tang Family, we must not act emotionally! Rather than punishing Tang Fei, it would be better to let him gain merits. If he is able to successfully enter Profound Dragon Sect and make my Tang Family come into contact with this backer, then naturally, he can make good use of this merit. "

The other two clan elders also nodded in agreement. Whether it was from their own interests or the interests of their clan, they had already expressed their support for Tang Jingtao.

Seeing that these people were in cahoots, Tang Lichuan suddenly laughed softly, and immediately attracted everyone's puzzled gaze. Tang Lichuan laughed unhurriedly: "Lord Elders only mentioned Tang Fei, but did you not mention me? Have you already forgotten that I am also one of the candidates to enter the Profound Dragon Sect?"

"A piece of trash!" How can you be so arrogant here! If it wasn't for the fact that you are of the Tang Family and bloodline, this old man wouldn't even give you the position of manager! Don't be so shameless! " Tang Jingtao no longer wanted to conceal his strength anymore at this point, and as if he was the ruler of Tang Family, he glared at Tang Lichuan and roared.

"Tang Jingtao! What did you say!? I'm still the Patriarch right now, aren't you being a little too arrogant! " Tang Yunyi was naturally aware of the other party's wolfish ambition, and after Tang Lichuan became unable to cultivate, it was only a matter of time before Tang Jingtao gained control of his Tang Family.

"Heh, we still don't know who the trash will be. Even if they haven't formally fought, who knows what the final result will be!" Tang Lichuan's brows twitched, and his cold eyes looked straight into the other party's eyes. Suddenly, he laughed, and said in a low voice: "In the official competition ten days from now, I will let you see how your son kneels and begs for mercy in front of me.

After saying that, Tang Lichuan stood up and left, leaving behind the Tang Family's higher ups who had complex expressions on their faces as they watched his skinny back slowly disappear from their line of sight …
