Chapter 281 The Nine-Heart Begonia Family
The Nine Heart Begonia Clan is merely a support-type clan, unlike the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School which has a Title Douluo protecting them.
Faced with the Haotian Sect's coercion, they had no choice but to comply.
However, Tang Xiao's wound was covered by Ye Qinghe's Nine Nether Profound Heaven Divine Art soul power, and under this influence, the wound could not be healed.
They had no choice but to suggest that the four elders of the Haotian Sect join forces with Tang Hao to expel this special soul power.
Afterwards, Ye Tianhao, relying on the power of the Nine Heart Begonia and his own Soul Douluo-level cultivation, spent a great deal of effort and finally managed to reconnect Tang Xiao's legs.
However, his lower body, which had been crushed into a pile of minced meat by the light blades activated by Ye Qinghe's Nine Nether Profound Heaven Divine Art, was already necrotic and could no longer be healed.
Upon learning this news, Tang Hao and the four surviving elders felt that their lower bodies were beyond saving.
It was a furious outburst.
After smashing things up at the Nine Heart Begonia family's place and venting his anger, he left in a huff. Before leaving, he didn't forget to issue a threat: if word got out that Tang Xiao had become a eunuch, they would come knocking on their door.
This infuriated the entire Nine-Heart Begonia clan, who collectively cursed.
"These bastards from the Haotian Sect are simply going too far."
Once the Haotian Sect members left, Ye Renxin could no longer hold back and burst into a tirade of curses.
"The Soul Master world is ultimately a place where the strong prey on the weak. We, the Nine Heart Begonia, are weak, while the Clear Sky Sect is strong. Naturally, they can bully us at will."
Ye Tianhao said this, his voice was very calm, but his hands were clenched tightly.
"But Father, the Haotian Sect is so disrespectful. Are we just going to keep swallowing our anger like this?"
Ye Renxin looked resentful.
As the young patriarch of the Nine Heart Begonia clan, he was always treated with utmost respect wherever he went.
Although he was never arrogant because of his martial spirit.
He has always treated people with a peaceful demeanor.
But I still have a certain amount of pride inside.
As a result, the Haotian Sect not only forced them to come to their door and treat Tang Xiao's injuries, but also threatened and intimidated them afterwards.
This is absolutely outrageous!
Ye Tianhao sneered on his aged face, "Do you think the Haotian Sect can keep going for long? Now that Haotian Douluo Tang Chen has left the Haotian Sect and his whereabouts are unknown, he has most likely perished."
"That old fellow Tang Wei, the current sect leader of the Haotian Sect, suffered irreversible injuries that even I cannot heal during the sect competition a couple of years ago, in order to maintain his position as the number one sect in the world. He fought to the death with that old dragon from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect and Sword Dao Chen Xin. He doesn't have many years left to live. Now he's just hanging on by a thread, waiting for his two precious sons to advance to Title Douluo."
"Now, the Haotian Sect has mobilized five elders plus the Haotian Twin Stars, yet six have been crippled and one dead. Do you really think the Haotian Sect is still the same Haotian Sect it once was?"
"Six disabled and one dead? Wasn't only Tang Xiao disabled? And there were only six of them." Ye Renxin looked puzzled.
Ye Tianhao sneered, "How come there are only six? Have you forgotten about the five elders of the Haotian Sect who left the sect some time ago? As far as I know, they went to recruit Ye Fan, who has gradually risen to fame in the Soul Master world in the past two years and has been training with the Haotian Twin Stars and a woman."
"Of the five elders, only four have come. The one who didn't come is probably dead. As for the remaining four elders, and that Tang Hao, judging from their walking posture and their exasperation upon learning that I couldn't cure Tang Xiao's lower body, this is definitely not just a reaction of concern for Tang Xiao. If nothing unexpected happens, they have all become eunuchs as well."
Hearing this, Ye Renxin beamed with delight. "That's really interesting! Now that the Haotian Twin Stars have become eunuchs, one of the six elders currently in power in the Haotian Sect is dead, and four have been castrated. The Haotian Sect has truly suffered a double loss. But Father, who do you think did this?"
Ye Tianhao offered his guess: "It might be the Spirit Hall, or it might be that young genius named Ye Fan. To be able to ascend to the Soul Saint realm in his early twenties, he must be an unparalleled genius with a super martial soul or twin martial souls. This talent is second only to the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall."
Ye Renxin asked doubtfully, "That Ye Fan is said to have a rather strained relationship with Tang Hao of the Haotian Twin Stars. And I've heard that Tang Hao is fond of the female companion traveling with them, but that companion seems to like Ye Fan. If the Haotian Sect forces Ye Fan into doing something like killing five elders of the Haotian Sect and the Haotian Twin Stars, while a bit outrageous, it's still somewhat acceptable. But the Spirit Hall and the Haotian Sect have always been on friendly terms; surely that's unlikely?"
Ye Tianhao snorted coldly: "Friendly? That was so many years ago. Now, Qian Xunji is in charge of the Spirit Hall. Although he hasn't shown any hostility towards the Clear Sky Sect, he certainly doesn't have much goodwill towards it either, especially towards that Holy Maiden. You know how hostile she is towards the Clear Sky Sect."
Ye Renxin nodded. "That Holy Maiden is extremely ambitious. She has tried to win over our Nine Heart Begonia Clan more than once. She has probably won over many other sects as well. It is said that Hu Yanzhen of the Elephant Armor Sect has already become the Holy Maiden's master."
At this point, Ye Renxin suddenly hesitated. He asked, puzzled, "Father, the Holy Maiden's condition was that she could help you ascend to the rank of Title Douluo. Why didn't you agree? This might have helped break the shackles on our Nine Heart Begonia's martial soul..."
Ye Tianhao shook his head, interrupting him. "Whether considering one's own lifespan or the interests of the family, the value of a Title Douluo is immeasurable. If it weren't for the restrictions of my martial soul, I would agree without hesitation. But Xin'er, I'm already old and don't have many years left to live. For the sake of the family's legacy, and also for you and your future children, I cannot and will never become a Title Douluo."
After hearing her father's words, Ye Renxin fell silent.
He understood what his father meant.
Only one Nine Heart Begonia Soul Master will appear in each generation, and at most two Nine Heart Begonia Soul Masters can exist at the same time.
If he wants his martial spirit to be passed down, then one of them, his father or he, must die first.
As a father, Ye Tianhao certainly wouldn't want to watch his son die.
She also didn't want to commit suicide in the future, causing her son and future grandchildren heartache.
Therefore, he gave up the opportunity to be promoted to Title Douluo and chose to die of old age naturally.
In this way, the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul can be passed down smoothly.
"Father, rest assured, one day I will find a way to break the shackles of martial spirit. Even if I can't, I believe my descendants, our children and grandchildren, will definitely be able to."
Ye Renxin assured his father, Ye Tianhao, and secretly made up his mind.
He would never give up, no matter how slim the chance.
Ye Tianhao nodded with satisfaction. He was quite at ease with his son. Although his talent and intelligence were not outstanding, he was steady and reliable. Even if he couldn't lead the Nine Heart Begonia family to prosperity, he would never decline.
However, Ning Fengzhi, the new sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, is a bit too self-righteous and doesn't recognize his own position.
Such a temperament would be a good thing for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect or the Haotian Sect.
But for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, a sect founded on support-type martial souls, it would only be a disaster.
