Chapter 131: The Ancestors of the Tang Family
In a magnificent and splendid mansion located in the capital city area, a middle-aged man with an imposing demeanor, looking extremely powerful, was on the phone.
This man was Tang Jie, the current head of the Tang family and also the father of Tang Hao.
On the other end of the line, Tang Hao spoke:
"Father, I want to inform you about something. A cultivator at the early stage of the Bone Forging Realm or higher has married Gu Zhou Jian. I want to kill him. You don’t need to worry much, I can handle this myself."
Tang Jie frowned. He hadn’t anticipated encountering such a rare situation. He knew full well that cultivators couldn’t have children, and the higher their level, the more indifferent they became to such matters. However, there was always the possibility of some strange exceptions.
He wanted to know more about the person his son mentioned, so he asked:
"Describe this person to me. Does he belong to any clan? Also, where did you meet him?"
Tang Hao recalled the prominent features of Jun Wu Xiao and said:
"He is very handsome and wears ancient clothes, he’s very narcissistic. I find him playful and spontaneous, unlike Grandfather or Great-grandfather. I met him in the Kunlun mountains."
Hearing the mention of the Kunlun mountains, Tang Jie frowned again. That area was under the jurisdiction of the royal court, so it was likely that the person belonged to the court. He said:
"Alright, do what you want. But be careful, Bone Forging Realm cultivators are very difficult to kill. And do not arbitrarily kill people without an agreement to fight to the death."
"I know." Tang Hao said and hung up.
At this moment, Tang Jie walked to a house and entered a secret passage leading straight underground. Here, there was an extremely large and sturdy room, but only two old men were there. He said:
"Father, grandfather, long time no see."
His father’s name was Tang Ying, currently at the early stage of the Bone Forging Realm. His grandfather’s name was Tang Ming, currently at the late stage of the Bone Forging Realm. These two were among the strongest members of the Tang family.
There were also a few others at the Bone Forging Realm within this faction. Over the years, the Tang family members were not just limited to those with the Tang surname. They were a collection of many people with the Tang family as their leaders.
"Hmm? What’s the matter? Normally, you don’t come here." Tang Ying said.
"Indeed, there is a matter at hand. Tang Hao is planning to kill an unknown cultivator. He estimate is that that guy is at least at the early stage of the Bone Forging Realm." Tang Jie said.
"An unknown person? Then where did my grandson encounter this person?" Tang Ying asked.
"He said he met the person in the Kunlun mountains, and the person was wearing ancient clothes. So he guessed that the person is a Bone Forging Realm cultivator or higher. He claimed he could handle it himself, but I’m worried he might get beaten to death. After all, Bone Forging Realm cultivators are not to be underestimated." Tang Jie said.
Upon hearing this, Tang Ming immediately rushed over and asked:
"Did he really meet him in the Kunlun mountains?"
Hearing this, the other two were taken aback. They didn’t understand why Tang Ming seemed so hurry. Tang Ying asked:
"Father, what about the Kunlun mountains? Isn’t it just an area under the royal court’s jurisdiction? It’s normal for them to send people there to cultivate, isn’t it?"
"It’s not about that. If it’s truly the Kunlun mountains, Tang Hao won’t be killed, at worst, he’ll just get beaten up." Tang Ming said.
Tang Jie was genuinely puzzled by this. While Bone Forging Realm cultivators were strong, they weren’t invincible against modern weaponry. He asked:
"Grandfather, why are you so sure? If we used heavy bombs, there’s a chance we could eliminate Bone Forging Realm cultivators."
"That’s true, but what if they are far beyond the Bone Forging Realm? This is something from the past, so not many people talk about it anymore.
Nowadays, people only know that the Kunlun mountains are under the royal court’s control. But for the older generation of cultivators, they all know that half of the Guardian Gods are cultivating in the Kunlun mountains, while the other half are in the national park area near the capital.
A long time ago, someone updated the cultivation records to add a new realm called the Food Avoidance Realm, so at least, the Guardian Gods are at this realm." Tang Ming explained.
The other two were wide-eyed with astonishment. The situation seemed to be escalating far beyond their expectations. Tang Jie hurriedly said:
"Then I must stop that boy immediately. We can’t let him declare war on the Guardian Gods. That would be nothing short of suicide."
But Tang Ming shook his head and said to him:
"No need to worry. That boy Tang Hao isn’t stupid. And the cultivators in the Kunlun mountains won’t kill him either. I’m certain they already knew his intentions but still allowed him to leave. This means they have a certain interest in him.
Do you really think he could leave the Kunlun mountains safely if they wanted to kill him? Even I wouldn’t be sure of my safety, let alone him. Cultivators aren’t petty like that. The higher you cultivate, the more you’ll understand this. Consider this as a unique life experience for him."
Tang Jie might not understand cultivators well, but Tang Ying did. After all, he had reached the Bone Forging Realm. Having sacrificed countless years of his life, it would be strange if he didn’t understand anything. He said:
"Don’t worry. If it’s them, the boy won’t be in any life-threatening danger. But those people have been in seclusion for so long, they wouldn’t know about modern weapons. I think instead of resenting Tang Hao, that person would be more curious to see the progress of humanity."
A while ago, they went out. Xia Ni and Jun Wu Xiao were also photographed. But there is a problem: that photo was bought by the royal court because it wanted to keep the information confidential, so no one knows. Although Jun Wu Xiao’s group really didn’t need it.
Tang Jie nodded. Though he didn’t understand much about cultivators since he was only at the middle stage of the Body Refinement Realm, if both his grandfather and father said so, he could be assured of his son’s safety. He said:
"If both of you say so, then I am relieved."
Tang Ming nodded, but he still had some questions. He knew Tang Hao wasn’t stupid and wouldn’t want to kill someone for no reason. He asked:
"But why does the boy want to kill that person?"
Tang Ying had the same curiosity. He knew his grandson had been extremely intelligent since childhood. Moreover, he wasn’t impulsive and acted very calmly and decisively. He really didn’t understand why he was acting this way this time.
