I Can See Your Combat Power

Chapter 474: Chapter Four Hundred and Seventy: Conditions

Although he didn’t understand why Tang Luo was making these requests, Gong Zheng didn’t hesitate and went to fulfill his orders. Even though they hadn’t known each other for long, he knew that Tang Luo never did anything without meaning. He simply couldn’t understand because he couldn’t see what his young master could see. His task was to simply execute the commands.

Perhaps he wasn’t a smart or clever man, but after more than twenty years in the Jianghu, he understand a very simple principle. Once you set aside whether the small roles can or cannot do, the most important thing was to obey!

Since he couldn’t be a right-hand man, he would do his own job well and try his best to accomplish it. That was all.

Two hours later, at the Du family residence.

When Tang Luo was ushered into the hall by someone, the four Du family heads were already present. Aside from Du Sha, who was sitting quietly with his eyes closed, three sharp glances converged on him. If it were an ordinary person subjected to these substantive gazes, they would probably freeze on the spot. Tang Luo, however, was as cool as a cucumber. Without even waiting for the host’s invitation, he found a place to sit down comfortably.

Just by looking at the way he sat, it seemed as though he was the host.

After adjusting to a comfortable sitting position, Tang Luo leaned back in his chair and said to one of the older gentleman with an unhappy expression, “I am Tang Luo. As of today, Red Cloud Mountain belongs to me. As for the rest of the Du family, I don’t need them. I just want three of your elders as my bodyguards.”

Looking at the four Du family warriors present, Du Ling, with his 72575 points of Spiritual Power, the other two with 80125 points which most likely belonged to the Du family’s previous head, Du Ting, and 74223 points which could only be the Second Elder Du Wei, the spiritual power of these three warriors was just about sufficient.

Initially, Du Ting, who was hurriedly called over by Du Ling, was already upset. After hearing Tang Luo’s arrogant claims, he beceven more incensed, managing a cold chuckle, “Why should the Du family listen to you?!”

Even though the Tang clan was powerful and held numerous warriors, the Du family no longer had anything to fear. How could a warrior, who didn’t even fear death, accept this kind of humiliation?

Not only Du Ting, both Du Wei and Du Ling wore enraged expressions. Even Du Sha, who had his eyes closed when he entered, opened them now, his brows furrowed and his face showing displeasure.

Although he had a natural affinity for this nobleman who cared about the common people, facing this seemingly unreasonable demand, even he was slightly annoyed. However, since the Du family was under the care of three elders now, he didn’t interfere. But a doubt lingered in his mind, he didn’t understand why Tang Luo would cto force the Du family to submit. Even if he truly wanted to conquer the Du family, he should have waited patiently.

Looking at their expressions, Tang Luo wasn’t intimidated. He remained calm and cool, saying lightly, “The Tang Clan? No, not the clan, it’s me. Whether it’s Red Cloud Mountain or the three elders, they are all meant for my use. And why should you hand them over, you ask? Because I can solve the problem of life and death that the Du family is facing. Is that enough of a reason?” The meeting hall suddenly fell silent. The anger on the faces of the three Du family elders vanished instantly, and they looked at each other in disbelief, hardly trusting their own ears.

“Tang Tianjiao, you said you can solve the Du family’s problem of life and death. Can you explain what you mean by that?” Du Sha, perhaps the calmest of the four, managed to ask Tang Luo evenly.

As Du Sha asked his question, the other three Du family elders turned their attention back to Tang Luo. However, their anxious expressions made people feel sorry for them, fearing that their speculation would fall short.

But since Tang Luo dared to boldly sit in the middle of the Du family meeting hall, he naturally cprepared. Ultimately, the reason that Du Sha’s descendants couldn’t reproduce was due to the defects of the Red Cloud Skill.

If, before obtaining the scrolls from the treasure house in the Minor Spiritual Realm, he was still trying to figure out how to solve the problems in the Red Cloud Skill, but after finding the book titled “Three Crystal Soul Casting Picture Record of the Earth Evil” in the Scripture Pavilion, the Du Family pretty much belonged to him.

Tang Luo first nodded to Du Sha, then calmly turned to everyone and said, “Everyone, no new births has happened in the Du family lineage for the past ten years. You all know what this means.”

The so-called family clan is a group with bloodline as the main branch. Once the main line no longer multiplies, the life of the family is at its end.

The three elders of the Du family listening to Tang Luo’s frank words had their eyes dimmed, only Du Sha’s eyes gleamed as though there was light in them: “Does Tianjiao have a solution?”

“Yes,” Tang Luo nodded, “I wonder if this is enough to meet the conditions I just mentioned.”

Either the Du family becomes extinct in this generation, or they relinquish their family land and all their top-level masters bechis subordinates. These conditions couldn’t be called mild, but did the Du family really have a choice?

The meeting hall fell silent once again, with the Du family elders looking at each other, seemingly unable to make a decision.

Most of the time, people are like this. When a problem pushes you into a corner, you think to yourself that you could do anything, as long as the problem gets solved.

But when a truly strict condition is placed in front of you, you subconsciously believe that the problem has been solved and start thinking about what comes next.

Without Red Cloud Mountain, it meant the loss of Red Cloud Crystal Mine. After that, the Du family’s Red Cloud Skill cultivation could only depend on Tang Luo. Even if they continued to multiply, they would have lost their independence and dignity. What was the point of such a rescue?

Not to mention the four warriors of the Du family all becoming Tang Luo’s subordinates. Without the protection of the fierce warriors and unable to cultivate Red Cloud Skill after leaving Red Cloud Mountain, what would happen to the descendants of the Du family?

All these thoughts filled the minds of the elders, even Du Ling, who initially thought that they could do anything to solve the problem, appeared distressed.

The three elders thought a lot, but Du Sha did not get carried away. He just asked seriously, “Tianjiao, how do you plan to solve the problem of the Du family descendants’ inability to reproduce?”

As a simple and determined warrior, Du Sha knew clearly what was the most important thing for him. Compared to the three elders who were still tangled up about what cnext, he was only concerned about whether Tang Luo truly had the ability to solve this problem.

Du Sha’s question woke up the other three elders who were deep in thought. Hearing Du Sha’s question, the three of them were filled with regret. They were so shocked by a sentence that they lost their composure and didn’t act as a decision maker should.

In response to Du Sha’s question, Tang Luo explained with a smile, “To solve the problem of the Du family descendants, we first need to know where the problem originated.”

“Zhongzhou has an ancient sect called the Palace of Striking Swan, whose heritage surpasses a thousand years. Its Earth-level mainline technique, ‘The Three Crystal Soul Casting Picture Record of the Earth Evil’, follows a lofty principle. It aims to forge the body with the original three crystals, to cast the soul with the inborn Earth Evil and to finally achieve the suprdivine body known as the Striking Swan. The Striking Swan Divine Body is said to be immune to all law and enjoys longevity. Even in a place as sanctified as Zhongzhou that is filled with martial arts, it is one of the top body techniques..”
