I Can See Your Combat Power

Tang Hongtao, being one of the few in the Tang Clan who knew about Tang Luo’s awakened ability to clearly see others’ spiritual power and bloodline, naturally wouldn’t doubt his judgment.

The destructive power of a warrior from the Fierce Realm is evident to all, which is why fortifications were needed to be built on the outskirts of North Mountain. Now, the appearance of a Martial Ancestor in the clan’s territory inevitably fills people with shock and fear. Quietly reaching back, he asked, “Report this to the clan leader for his decision. Among us, there are several powerful ones. This woman can’t do much.”

As a seasoned martial arts researcher, Tang Hongtao was not adept at handling such matters, but he was certain he could suppress the woman.

However, in the face of a Martial Ancestor with unclear intentions, he preferred to let Tang Luo, with more experience, make the decision.

Tang Luo made a subtle nod, then relayed his findings and judgment to Tang Zu, the family patriarch, once again. The old man who oversaw the blood laws of the clan listened to the message calmly without a word, even without turning his head to Tang Luo, he said: “Minister Luo, you have made a great contribution again!”

All secrets in the world, as long as they are discovered, will become usable handles. Now that the Martial Ancestor has been spotted, there’s nothing to fear. The center of the Tang Clan’s territory in North Mountain is filled with experts. Even if it’s a female Martial Ancestor, or even if it was Mi Yang, they could only flee.

Therefore, Tang Zu’s decision was to remain silent, to deal with changes unchangefully. Moreover, he said to Tang Luo, “Since Yun Piaopiao is troublesome, Yun Yin Mansion might not be clean either. What is the cultivation level of those musicians and dancers, do they pose a threat?”

Tang Luo carefully recalled the songs and dances just now, and replied, “All the musicians who appeared in the Star Gathering Banquet are above the Mortal Realm cultivation level. Among them, Zhao, the lute player, is the highest, already at the peak of the Mortal Realm.”

Although it was thought that practicing was only for a more beautiful dance and a more flexible body, it now seemed somewhat strange. After all, three Mortal Realm dancers were equivalent to a small squad. If each dancer had a Mortal Realm cultivation level, the combined power of all songgirls, dancers, musicians, and guards in the Yun Yin Mansion was not insignificant.

This power would not amount to much if placed on a battlefield. However, if the two clans go to war and they wreak havoc in the clan territory, it would be a nuisance.

Fortunately, they have been discovered now, and there is still sufficient time to determine the scale and intentions of these people. Otherwise, if war were to break out and Yun Yin Mansion harboured ill intentions, it would be a serious problem.

At this moment, Tang Luo had no mood for drinking. He wanted to go to the Wind Media Department to find out the origins of Yun Piaopiao and Yun Yin Mansion. However, he knew that since Tang Zu intended to keep calm, he must not let the other party see any clues.

Therefore, the best response right now was to eat and drink as usual, let the Star Gathering Banquet pass peacefully. Just as what the master said, a Martial Ancestor alone cannot do anything.

“Waiter, bring another round of food and drinks.” Tang Luo wiped his mouth and said to the messenger nearby.

Seeing Tang Cunfu, flushed with success, leading a captivating lady to each table to toast the guests, and the lascivious expressions of the people, Tang Luo had a strangely different sensation.

Actually, he had no regard for Tang Cunfu at all. But since he was a representative of a subclan in the Tang Clan, and now held an important position, he should be considered an important figure to outsiders. However, as far as Tang Zu’s decisions were concerned, it didn’t seem to be the case.

Remaining silent meant keeping calm and pretending not to know that Yun Piaopiao was a powerful warrior from the Fierce Realm, waiting for her to expose her intentions.

Tang Luo was almost certain that if the clan ultimately discovered that Yun Piaopiao was sent by the Mi Family, they would use her to feed the Mi Clan false information.

From the perspective of the whole clan’s interests, Tang Luo felt that the handling was quite good, but what about Tang Cunfu?

Sharing his bed with a mysterious woman, who was quite likely hostile to the Tang Clan, once she suspected her identity had been exposed, killing a Mortal Realm peak practitioner like Tang Cunfu before activating the Xuanji Jade would not pose a problem at all. After all, since Tang Cunfu had become a representative of a subclan, he had been too busy to pay attention to martial arts.

This move was almost like placing Tang Cunfu in an extremely dangerous environment. What was even more frightening was that the clan could not let Tang Cunfu know about it, because once he knew, he would inevitably be mentally disturbed. If he were unable to maintain his composure, it would only alert the woman to the exposure of her identity.

Tang Luo suddenly felt somewhat sympathetic towards Tang Cunfu. After all, if the woman showed up beside Clan Head Tang Zhi today, he would know what the patriarch’s attitude would be.

As expected, the so-called new faction leader is just a symbol put forward by several elders to express their dissatisfaction towards the Clan Head Tang Zhi. It could be Tang Cunfu, or Tang Qi, or even Tang Ming. After all, there are three representatives from the subclan, aren’t there?

“Piaopiao, let me introduce you to these distinguished guests,” said Tang Cunfu, glowing with delight, as he led the enchanting woman to Tang Luo’s table, and introduced each of them in turn.

“This is the patriarch of the Tang Clan.”

“Greetings, Patriarch.”

“You two should love each other in the future. I didn’t bring any gifts for the banquet today, but I’ll purify your children in the future,” said Tang Zu genially, as though he was a normal elder.

Tang Cunfu was ecstatic, and hastily said to his woman, “Piaopiao, please thank the Patriarch quickly!”

“Thank you, Patriarch.” The gentle and delicate woman thanked the Patriarch seemingly puzzled but with a much like a young girl, causing men’s heart to flutter. Tang Cunfu subtly squeezed the woman’s hand, whispering, “I will explain the meaning of purification to you later.”

The woman returned him a coquettish look, seemingly blaming him for teasing her with something she did not understand.

Looking at the loving couple, the several elders laughed heartily.

Tang Cunfu continued to introduce the remaining people at the table to Yun Piaopiao, while laughing:

“This is the second elder of our Tang Clan, who should soon be the Great Elder!”

“This is Elder Tang, the second elder’s brother.”

“This is the Fifth Elder.”

“This is one of the three representatives of our Tang Clan, Representative Tang Qi, who has great prestige in the branch clans.”

Whenever Tang Cunfu introduced someone, the woman would either express surprise or adoration and flatter the newly introduced figure. Her delicate and innocent demeanor almost made people forget that she was a woman in her forties. It elicits a sense of fondness, and one could understand why Tang Cunfu wanted to host the Star Gathering Ceremony.

After all, having such a beautiful woman and not showing off would be like wearing a grand robe in the dark – unforgivable. No matter the time or place, the best way for a man to show off is by having an exceedingly beautiful woman at his side.
