I’ve already become a titled Douluo, and only now the system arrives?

Chapter 76: The Second Elder's Decision, Capturing Tang Hao

They were forced to come to such a remote place, can they still be proud of it?

Facing Tang Hao's attitude, Tang San felt very speechless.

He didn't even know how to deal with Tang Hao anymore.
Blind optimism?
Overconfidence?

He really didn't understand. The Haotian Sect had been beaten like a stray dog, so what was there to be proud of?

But then again, the Haotian Sect did have some redeeming qualities.

"Little San, why aren't you talking? What are you thinking?" Suddenly, Tang Hao noticed that Tang San was frowning.

"Dad, I'm thinking, can't we use the power of the Haotian Sect to deal with Qin Xiao?" Tang San looked up at Tang Hao and asked.

To be honest, he didn't have as much attachment to the Haotian Sect as Tang Hao did. However, he was very eager for the power of the Haotian Sect. He had heard Tang Hao say that there were at least five Title Douluo-level elders in the Haotian Sect now. If they could mobilize this power, it shouldn't be too difficult to defeat Qin Xiao, at least that's what Tang San thought.

After listening to Tang San's words, Tang Hao fell into a brief silence.

"Dad, is it really that difficult?" Tang San asked again.

"More than difficult, it's impossible for me. You are a disciple of the Haotian Sect, and when the disciples of the sect are in trouble, shouldn't you stand together against the enemy?" Tang Hao said with bitterness. "But I am also a sinner in the Haotian Sect. Those elders of the sect probably hate me as much as the people from the Martial Soul Hall do, or even more. If they really had the intention to stand together against the enemy, why would I be pursued by the Martial Soul Hall? You might not know this, but they would probably rather see me dead to remove the hatred in their hearts. So, how could they willingly help us against Qin Xiao?"

Tang San didn't expect that there would be even more hostility towards Tang Hao within the Haotian Sect.

"It's a pity. If we could have their help..." Tang San didn't finish his sentence and just sighed softly.

"Do you think it's a pity? What about me? Little San, do you know what I regret now?" Tang Hao asked.

"What is it?"

"If I had known that your uncle would end up like this, I should have advised him to take a few elders with him to deal with Qin Xiao. The command of the Haotian Sect, even if many of the elders didn't want it, they would have to obey it," Tang Hao said regretfully. "If things had turned out that way, the outcome would not have been like this. Your uncle wouldn't have died, and we wouldn't be in this situation like stray dogs."

Regretting not having done something earlier.

"Now, can't we make your uncle's death public?" Tang San asked in confusion.

"If we make it public now..." Tang Hao smiled, "Little San, do you believe that if those old guys from the Haotian Sect find out about your uncle's death, the first thing they will do is not seek revenge for your uncle, but start discussing who will become the new Sect Master of the Haotian Sect. And my name will have another charge added to it, that I killed the previous Sect Master."

Ah, Tang San was stunned by these words. "The Haotian Sect, the number one sect in the world, in the face of a great enemy, they are just fighting amongst themselves?"

"They are like that, submissive to outsiders, but ruthless to their own people," Tang Hao nodded, speaking seriously. "That's why I refuse to announce your uncle's death to the sect. Remember, the position of Sect Master has belonged to our lineage since the time of our ancestor Tang Chen. No matter what happens, it must not fall into the hands of those elders."

Upon hearing this, Tang San nodded firmly. "Dad, I'll remember."

In reality, he didn't think it would make any difference.

There was no place for them in the sect now. The legitimate heir of the Sect Master's lineage was wandering like a lost soul outside.

How pitiful.

On the other side, at the Haotian Sect, in the main hall.

"Fourth Brother, can you stop pacing? I'm getting dizzy watching you," the Fifth Elder said helplessly as he watched the Fourth Elder pacing back and forth in the hall.

"I don't know why, but I have a feeling of unease," the Fourth Elder said with worry. "If we calculate the time, Third Brother and Seventh Brother should have returned by now."

The Fourth Elder's voice was full of concern.

"Fourth Brother, I have something I shouldn't say," the Fifth Elder began, but the Fourth Elder interrupted him.

"If it's something you shouldn't say, then don't say it. Just say what you should say," the Fourth Elder said.

The Fifth Elder: "|( T﹏T )"

I was just being polite, and you took it seriously.

"Fourth Brother, I feel that your worry is unnecessary. The reason Third Brother and Seventh Brother went together was well thought out by Second Brother. It was a well-thought-out plan, and there shouldn't be any problems," the Fifth Elder said. "After all, it was Second Brother's idea, and it's foolproof."

After saying this, the Fifth Elder looked at the Second Elder and grinned, "Right, Second Brother?"

It had to be said that this rainbow fart was very effective.

The Second Elder's mouth twitched slightly, and he forced a smile that wasn't much better than crying.

"Brother Fifth is right. Seventh Brother is impulsive, but Third Brother is stable. With Third Brother there to keep things in check, there shouldn't be any trouble," the Second Elder said confidently. "As for the opponent's strength, I don't think there's anything to worry about. Even if the opponent is a ninety-fifth level Title Douluo, it shouldn't be difficult for Third Brother and Seventh Brother."

The Second Elder continued, stroking his beard with a look of confidence.

"Second Brother, I understand what you're saying, but I just have this feeling..."

Before the Fourth Elder could finish his sentence, there was a voice from outside the hall.

"Elders, Seventh Elder has returned."

One of the Haotian Sect disciples announced from outside.

"Haha, Fourth Brother, I told you there wouldn't be any problems," the Fifth Elder laughed. "You see, he's back already. No need to worry. I'll go and greet Fifth Brother myself."

Phew, it was just a false alarm.

The Fourth Elder let out a sigh of relief.

However, everyone seemed to have overlooked one thing: the statement made by the disciple of the Haotian Sect mentioned that the Seventh Elder had returned, but it didn't mention the return of the Third Elder along with the Seventh Elder.

Nevertheless.

As the Seventh Elder stood up, a figure had already arrived outside the sect's main hall.

"Old Seven."

"Seventh Brother."

The Fourth Elder and the Fifth Elder both spoke up.

"Old Seven, where is your Third Brother?"

At this moment, the Second Elder also inquired.

The Fifth Elder also asked curiously, "Yes, where is the Third Brother? Why did only one of you return?"

"Second Brother, Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother."

"Where is the Third Brother?"

"He was captured by Qin Xiao!"

The Seventh Elder finally saw his family, and despite his age and worldly experience, he couldn't help but burst into tears.

It was heart-wrenching.

"What? The Third Brother was captured!"

The Second Elder was shocked. "The two of you joined forces, and even if you faced a Title Douluo above the ninety-fifth rank, you should have been able to escape unharmed. How could someone manage to capture the Third Brother?"

There was a tone of disbelief in his voice.

It shouldn't have been possible.

"Big Brother, please don't doubt it. What if the opponent's strength is above the ninety-fifth rank?" The Seventh Elder cried, "Do you think we could have escaped?!"

What! Above the ninety-fifth rank Title Douluo!

The Three Elders were all shocked.

They realized that, even now, the Haotian Sect didn't have such a powerhouse!

Moreover, judging from the seriousness of the Seventh Elder's expression, he was definitely not joking.

This meant that such a minor character had such a terrifying identity?

Later, the Second Elder asked in a deep voice, "Old Three, tell us in detail what happened!"

"It's like this."

Immediately, the Seventh Elder recounted all of his experiences since leaving the sect.

After hearing the Seventh Elder's words, the Second Elder, Fourth Elder, and Fifth Elder, all of whom were Title Douluo-level powerhouses, had their eyeballs almost pop out.

"What? The story that's been circulating about Qin Xiao in Tian Dou City, that legend is true. Qin Xiao is indeed that mysterious Title Douluo!"

They were dumbfounded.

Previously, they had treated this matter as a joke.

"Title Douluo!"

"Did he start cultivating in the womb? He's already a Title Douluo at such a young age? When I was his age, I had just joined the Soul Sect!"

"Such talent and strength are truly monstrous. Even Tang Hao, who is known as the youngest Title Douluo on the Douluo Continent, would pale in comparison to him. It's hard to imagine what realm Qin Xiao will reach in the future!"

The Three Elders were in shock.

One after another, they expressed their emotions.

Amazement, admiration. Various emotions overwhelmed them.

But are you guys getting it?

The Seventh Elder felt that something was wrong as he listened more and more.

This Qin Xiao might be powerful, but wasn't he still an enemy?

His Third Brother was still suffering in his hands!

"Are we discussing Qin Xiao's talent now?"

"Shouldn't we think about how to save my Third Brother? He's still in the hands of that despicable guy."

"Besides, how should our Haotian Sect deal with such a formidable enemy? Should we do our best to destroy him or try to reconcile without holding grudges?"

The Seventh Elder raised several questions.

"Old Seven makes a valid point."

"Old Seven is right."

The Fourth and Fifth Elders, to cover up their embarrassment, echoed the Seventh Elder's words with dry vocabulary.

The Second Elder asked, "Tell us, what conditions does Qin Xiao have for releasing the Third Brother?"

"Tang Hao!"

The Seventh Elder said without hesitation, "Qin Xiao said that he will only release my Third Brother if we capture Tang Hao and bring him to him."

"Who? Tang Hao?"

"Is there any connection between Qin Xiao and Tang Hao?"

The expressions of everyone changed.

They had already realized where the problem lay; it was all because of Tang Hao's mischief.

"Please remove the words 'is there any connection' from that question."

"I can assure you that there is not only a connection between Qin Xiao and Tang Hao, but it is also significant."

The Seventh Elder's gaze swept over the faces of the others one by one. "I can say that Qin Xiao's destruction of the Power Clan is largely related to Tang Hao. After all, the Power Clan was not only once affiliated with our Haotian Sect but also the most loyal follower of Tang Hao."

"The truth of the matter is, after unravelling the entire sequence of events, I feel that our Haotian Sect has suffered unjustly. It's all because of Tang Hao's schemes!"

"I now suspect that he holds a grudge against us and deliberately did all this."

With these words, the Seventh Elder gained the agreement of others.

"I think Old Seven is right. Tang Hao must be seeking revenge on us by doing this."

The Fifth Elder was inspired by the Seventh Elder and said resolutely.

"Brothers, calm down a bit. Let's not jump to conclusions so quickly."

The Second Elder waved his hand, urging them not to get too worked up.

But the Seventh Elder wouldn't give up. "Big Brother, is there anything else to say about this? As long as we capture Tang Hao, the truth will come to light."

"You've debated enough for now. I think we should focus on finding a way to save my Third Brother."

At this point, the Fourth Elder couldn't stand it any longer.

Old Three.

After hearing the Fourth Elder's words, everyone fell silent.

It seemed that the only way to save the Third Brother was to

use Tang Hao's life as a bargaining chip.

"All right, then we will leave the sect with you to find Tang Hao."

"Right and wrong will become clear once we find Tang Hao."

The Second Elder spoke in a deep voice, "If it turns out that this kid is causing trouble from behind the scenes, I won't spare him!"

"Little Third, once you cross the iron rope bridge ahead, you will be able to see the true gate of the Haotian Sect."

On the other side, Tang Hao and Tang San were about to officially arrive at the gate of the Haotian Sect.

For a powerhouse like Tang Hao, the obstacles that were meant for ordinary people were nothing more than child's play.

However, Tang San, who was in his arms, had been shocked by the sight.

"It seems like there's something here after all. It's almost as formidable as the forbidden areas in the previous Tang Sect."

He had gradually changed some of his previous views.

The Haotian Sect did have its merits.

"Dad, can we go there now?" Tang San suddenly wanted to see what the gate of the Haotian Sect, which Tang Hao had praised so highly, looked like.

"No problem, let's go there now."

Tang Hao nodded heavily and was about to use his soul power to cross the obstacles.

However, in the next moment, his expression changed.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Tang San asked in a nervous tone.

Tang Hao said in a deep voice, "It seems that we can't enter. A powerful figure from the Haotian Sect has come out!"

"Powerful? How powerful?" Tang San's voice trembled, and he had forgotten to breathe.
