(Four Updates) 348: Chapter 349: No Grave!

(Four Updates) The Tang Family cemetery, where the members of the Tang family are buried.

Tang Zhong knew of this place but had never visited.

His parents had sent him away from Xuanjing City, telling him to never return.

After his parents died, he didn’t even know where they were buried.

He had thought several times about coming here but never expected to actually arrive.

Now that he was here, he had to find his parents’ graves in this cemetery.

When his parents died, Tang Zhong hadn’t done anything that a son should have.

But if he died without even looking at their graves once, that would be too heartless.

Without delay, Tang Zhong approached the cemetery.

Looking carefully around, he didn’t spot anyone.

Usually, there were tomb guardians in the cemetery as it belonged to the Tang family.

Perhaps it was nighttime now, and the tomb guardians had gone home.

But this was an opportunity for Tang Zhong to visit his parents and his grandfather’s graves.

Immediately, Tang Zhong quietly walked towards the cemetery.

Suddenly, before his eyes appeared a vast array of tombstones, all identical, making it impossible to discern who was buried where.

This was the custom of the Tang family, treating everyone equally.

Yet each tombstone bore a name and a photograph, to identify who lay beneath.

“The tomb of Tang Liu from the sixteenth generation of the Tang family!”

“The tomb of Tang Yu from the seventeenth generation of the Tang family!”

…

“I am from the nineteenth generation.

These people must be from generations above me, our ancestors!” Tang Zhong walked past the graves, pausing at each.

After all, he was a descendant of the Tang family.

Even if he didn’t accept the Tang surname, his ancestry was inescapable.

Now, the most important thing was to find his parents’ grave, and Tang Zhong felt a sense of urgency.

Suddenly, up ahead, he saw a grave.

It read “Heir of the seventeenth generation of the Tang family, Tang Shengyuan.” Tang Zhong was very familiar with this name, it was his own grandfather, the Family Head.

In life, his grandfather had been very kind to Tang Zhong.

Without any hesitation, Tang Zhong knelt to pay homage.

“Grandfather, your grandson is unfilial for not visiting sooner.

I hope you do not blame me!”

Tang Zhong bowed deeply.

“The marriage you arranged for me had to be called off due to my own circumstances, I hope you do not blame me!”

“Grandfather!”

Tang Zhong knelt once more before rising from the ground.

“I am here to find my parents.

I never gave them a proper send-off when they left us.

As their son, I truly failed in my duties.

I’m going to look for them now, goodbye Grandfather.

I will come to visit again.”

With that, Tang Zhong turned and left.

He had to find his parents’ graves to kneel and pay his respects personally.

This had always been on Tang Zhong’s mind.

Normally, one had to have the Tang family’s permission to come here, but he had heeded his parents’ wishes to have no further connection with the Tang family, so he had never been able to visit before.

But now, having come here by a twist of fate, how could he miss this chance?

Thus, he roamed back and forth within the cemetery, walking past one grave after another, examining the names and photos on each tombstone.

Initially, Tang Zhong was full of zeal.

An hour passed as he tirelessly searched back and forth, but he could not find his parents’ graves.

Tang Xinglou, Jiang Shuiyue.

Their names and photographs were nowhere to be found among these thousands of tombstones.

Even after several searches, he found nothing, not even among the graves without photos or names.

“What on earth is going on?” Tang Zhong’s panic was unprecedented.

This is the Tang Family’s graveyard, but his parents’ graves were nowhere to be found; how could this be?

Tang Zhong couldn’t believe it; he searched several times to no avail.

At that moment, Tang Zhong truly got angry.

In the Tang Family cemetery, his parents’ graves were missing.

Where had his parents gone?

He remembered when his parents were on their deathbed, barely alive, they had told him to leave the Tang Family and never return.

At that time, he hadn’t thought too much about it, assuming without a doubt that his parents had certainly died.

But now, their graves were not here; what on earth was going on?

Suddenly, Tang Zhong’s eyes widened: “Could it be that my parents aren’t dead?”

Tang Zhong was even harboring some fantasies.

But originally, he had clearly seen his parents lying on the bed, coughing up blood; what on earth was going on?

After he had left the Tang Family, what exactly had happened?

At this moment, Tang Zhong even thought about going to the Tang Family to ask, what on earth was going on?

But recalling the promise he made to his parents, never to go to the Tang Family, Tang Zhong felt extremely troubled.

Soon, another possibility arose in Tang Zhong’s mind; that indeed his parents had died, but the Tang Family hadn’t buried them in this cemetery.

Thinking this, Tang Zhong could not rule out the possibility, if it was true, then he should all the more go and check it out at the Tang Family.

If his parents had died and the Tang Family hadn’t buried them in the cemetery, then considering all the efforts his parents had made for the Tang Family, to be treated this way, he must even more go to the Tang Family.

Thinking this, Tang Zhong clenched his fists together.

No matter what, this time he must return to the Tang Family to inquire about what exactly happened to his parents.

Today, Tang Zhong had regained his composure, and since there was nothing else in the cemetery, as for his grandfather, he would visit him another time.

Then, Tang Zhong left the cemetery and retraced his original path, planning to return to the Crown Prince’s Club before addressing anything else.

As for the Crown Prince Clubhouse, everyone in Xuanjing City knew about it.

When Tang Zhong returned to the Crown Prince Clubhouse, Situ Mingliang approached him.

Upon seeing Tang Zhong’s bare upper body, he hurriedly asked, “Brother Tang…

why are you like this?

Were you attacked by people from the Hero Association?”

Tang Zhong looked down and noticed he wasn’t wearing a shirt; previously, because his blood had boiled, he had become agitated and torn his shirt.

Obviously, he wouldn’t tell anyone that, so he quickly found an excuse, saying, “No, I just went for a swim in the lake!”

Situ Mingliang, hearing this, finally relaxed.

Then he pulled out an invitation from his hand: “Brother Tang, someone from the Tang Family came over and brought this; it’s a banquet tomorrow evening at the Tang Family, and they hope you can attend!”

Then, Situ Mingliang revealed a red invitation in his hand.

Tang Zhong saw it and narrowed his eyes.

A banquet at the Tang Family, he was sure to attend.

Since he had been invited, he would not refuse.

He had to find out what exactly happened to his parents this time.

“Fine, I’ll go tomorrow!” Tang Zhong said.

Meanwhile, inside the large courtyard of the Tang Family, Tang Lin walked in slowly.

Under the dim yellow light, the family head, Tang Ran, held a teacup, slowly sipping his tea.

“Father, I’ve already delivered the banquet invitation to Tang Zhong’s hand.

Now it’s up to him whether he comes or not!” Tang Lin said to Tang Ran with a smile.

“Good that you’ve delivered it.

Whether or not he comes, it’s his choice!” Tang Ran said with a smile.

“By the way, Dad, Tang Zhong is really very strange.

It seems the thing inside his body is really powerful!” Tang Lin said.

“Of course, it’s powerful.

What the boy inherited is very strong.

Such a person, if he can be of use to us, then use him; if not, just like we did with his parents, we’ll eliminate him, but we’ll have to be even more ruthless!” Tang Ran spoke ominously.
