Tang Luo wrote responses for over a dozen of letters in a sweep. He nodded his head in satisfaction.
“Alright, you can take these letters back.”
“Are you really not going to take another look?” Tang Han was on the verge of collapse. If he had known the attitude of the man before him, he would not have bothered to come.
Yeah!” Tang Luo handed over a stack of responded letters to the other party: I already said, if it’s not a letter from Steward Chang or Steward Hua, it’s fine to reply directly.”
“I thought ” Tang Han, with a complex look shook his head: “Never mind.”
Although they all belonged to the same clan, the difference in status naturally led to different perceptions when they met. Everyone’s status and identity were different, no matter how well they talked about being one family.
Just like when Tang Luo was the clan elder, he must bow when he saw him, it’s not out of respect for Tang Luo, but for the position of the elder of the Tang
Empathizing with others, if the invitation was sent to him today, could he refuse it so easily, even if he was unfamiliar with the Great Elder.
Reflecting on this, Tang Han realized that he might have been too mercenary. He thought that if he didn’t fight for power and had a quiet position, he could enjoy a leisurely life. It seems that he still couldn’t escape from this world of human interaction.
After putting away all the letters with replies, Tang Han took out another stack of letters and asked, “These are challenge letters sent to you by the sons of Xiling, take a look.”
Challenge letters!?” Tang Luo raised his eyebrows and looked at the thick stack in the other’s hand. He had no intention of taking it, but asked: “This is really new, who are these people, and why?”
All challenge letters sent to the clan were opened and checked for fear of poisoning by the sender within the pages. Therefore, unless they were letters from within the clan, all other external letters would go through this checking process. Since they have already been checked, Tang Han must have an idea of the content, so it’s more convenient to ask him directly than reading it by himself.
Looking at the other party’s lazy look, Tang Han felt helpless. There were more than a hundred members of the Tang Clan in meditation in the back mountain, but none of them caused as much trouble as Tang Luo, making his workload so large: “Quite a few are from the sons of Xiling. They felt that you were looking down on them because you refused Xiao Zheng’s invitation, so they sent out challenges.”
“Did these people all hit their heads on a door?” Tang Luo was amazed at their strange thinking, blurted out: “Aren’t there always two options for an invitation, acceptance and refusal? Why do we need an invitation if we can only accept!?”
, Heh, heh, heh.” Tang Han seemed to take a little pleasure in his misfortune: “Who told you not to be the clan elder anymore, they didn’t have the guts to provoke you before. Now they see that you have been stripped of your position, thinking you’ve fallen from grace, you know how good these Xiling princes are at taking advantage of situations.”
“No, no.” Tang Luo was really convinced: “A group of cowards who don’t want to compete, what’s there to fight about, is there anything else?”
“Yes!” Tang Han singled out one more: “This is a challenge letter sent by Chu, the son of the Beast King.”
“Chu?” Tang Luo frowned: “Why?”
“Not only you, he also sent challenge letters to Tang Qingshan and Xiao Ziyu.” Tang Han thought for a moment: “It’s probably because he’s unsatisfied with the seating arrangement of Xiao Zheng’s invitation, or he wants to prove that he’s the top transcendent in Xiling.”
The content of the challenge letter was vague and lacked a reason, only inviting Tang Luo to fight at Jianglin on the first day of August. So Tang Han could only make such a judgement.
Fights among martial artists were mostly about the title, or who was stronger. Even though the three of them had all lost to Xu Lao, they still wanted to figure out who was the best among them. Originally, they could have participated in the Wudao Grand Conference of Xiling, but the competition was turned into an exchange match, and the three equally ranked fighters sat together. How could Chu, who was proud and arrogant, accept this?
“Boring!” Tang Luo’s expression was very cold, because he didn’t understand what the point of all this was besides wasting time.
Xu Lao had defeated Chu without him having a chance to fight back, instead of thinking about turning things around, he put his mind on the other losers.
Did defeating Xiao Ziyu and Tang Qingshan mean that he could beat Xu Lao? How was this guy’s mind structured?
“From now on, don’t deliver these challenge letters, just send them back.” Tang Luo said directly, feeling that even hearing about it was a waste of his meditation time.
Tang Han nodded and collected the challenge letters again: “Okay.” He thought and asked: “You’re really not going to these clan invitations?”
“Yes.” Tang Luo nodded: “Thanks for your trouble.”
Okay then. Tang Han put the letters in the box he had brought: “Then I’ll leave.”
“Thanks for your trouble!”
South City, Beast King’s Residence.
The Housekeeper, holding the reply from the Tang Clan’s headquarters, found Chu, who was discussing matters in the hall, along with two Beast Masters.
“Young Master, this is the reply from the Tang Clan’s headquarters, please take a look.” The Housekeeper held up two letters with red and black writing. Chu sat lazily on a tiger head chair and said, “No need to present it, just relay the result.”
“Yes.” The Housekeeper held up a letter and said, “Tang Qingshan’s reply is to fight, set for the full moon night of Mid-Autumn Festival on the 15th of August.”
“Hmm.” Chu nodded, he would have to fight with Xiao Ziyu and Tang Qingshan in one day, which would be a bit of a hassle even for someone like him. Originally, he intended to stagger the two challenges. Unexpectedly, this Tang Qingshan was so understanding and automatically adjusted the date to midAugust. This was good, if he could defeat the two before the First Wudao Conference of Xiling, he would be the deservedly top transcendent person.
He nodded in satisfaction but didn’t hear the Housekeeper’s next sentence. Chu was somewhat dissatisfied: “What about the other one?”
“emmm…” The Housekeeper looked at the other letter in his hand, not knowing how to start.
“How did Tang Luo reply? Just speak.” Chu frowned. In fact, Tang Luo was just an add-on, he was very displeased with Xiao Zheng’s decision to send the first invitation to him. This time, he sent the challenge letter only as a deterrent. After all, there was a ten-year age difference between the two, so it was understandable if he did not accept. But why was the housekeeper in such a state?
Did Tang Luo brag in his response?
The Housekeeper looked at Tang Luo’s reply, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said tremulously, “The… the servant dare not to comment, you… you better read it for yourself, Young Master.”
Having said that, he respectfully handed the letter to Chu and retreated from the hall like escaping.
Chu frowned and was about to open the letter when he saw three big characters on the back of the envelope.
“Boring, bugger off!”
Bang!!!
The tranquility brought by writing was instantly shattered. The red and black spiritual power erupted from his hand and tore the letter into pieces. Chu, with red eyes, glared fiercely at the trembling housekeeper in the hall.
