Chapter 239: Shocking News! All Sides Converge on Heaven Dou City!
The Clear Sky Clan is coming out of seclusion!
When this news spread, it swept across the entire Douluo Continent like a plague of locusts!
Numerous sects, noble families, and high-ranking officials from the two great empires, upon hearing this news, all widened their eyes, trying to discern its truth.
However, the unique soul power imprint of the Clear Sky Hammer on the message papers confirmed that these messages were personally written and inscribed by members of the Clear Sky Clan, leaving no room for forgery!
Especially since the other two major sects of the Upper Three Sects—the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan—did not come forward to dispute the news, it became clear that the long-secluded Clear Sky Clan was finally returning!
Just as the news of the Clear Sky Clan's re-emergence sent ripples through the continent, another bombshell dropped from the Clear Sky Clan, causing even greater waves.
The young master of the Clear Sky Clan, Tang San, is getting married!
And his brides were none other than the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, Ning Rongrong, and the most beautiful woman of his generation from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Qingrou.
The two women had very different personalities: one was willful and the other gentle as water. Their future married life was bound to be interesting.
The news sparked discussions among various families, small factions, and even ordinary people.
"Who would have thought the Clear Sky Clan would make such a big splash upon their return!"
"Indeed, Tang San is lucky. Despite his looks, he's managed to marry women from both the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Truly enviable."
Many people had seen Tang San during the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament. In terms of appearance, he only scored a seven... out of ten thousand.
"Ha, even if Tang San isn't handsome, his strength and background are formidable. Don't you remember his Clear Sky Hammer's first and second martial souls both have ten-thousand-year spirit rings?"
"As long as he doesn't die young, the Clear Sky Clan will surely produce another top Title Douluo like his father, Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao!"
"Hehe, this marriage is clearly a political alliance."
"Of course, marriages among powerful clans and noble families are always alliances."
"But do you know which of the two women will be the primary wife?"
The status of the primary wife is equal to the husband and is the true matriarch of the family. If Tang San leads the Clear Sky Clan in the future, the primary wife will have a status comparable to his in the clan!
As for the secondary wife, her status would be lower, reflecting on her family's influence.
"Of course, it's Ning Rongrong of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan!" someone asserted. "No matter how willful she is, she's the daughter of Ning Fengzhi, the clan leader, and has exceptional talent."
"And Yu Qingrou, although talented, isn't a direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's leader, Yu Yuanzhen."
"In terms of lineage, there's a significant difference."
"The Clear Sky Clan wouldn't let such a woman become their matriarch."
"Moreover, from a sect's perspective, a support system soul master like Ning Rongrong is more suitable as the matriarch."
Many people agreed, nodding in agreement.
...
Spirit Hall.
"The Clear Sky Clan is coming out of seclusion?"
"Tang San is getting married?"
"In the Heaven Dou Empire?"
"And they've sent us an invitation?"
Su Yun narrowed his eyes as he read the intelligence report and the letter bearing the unique seal of the Clear Sky Clan.
"Your Highness, both pieces of news are true. We've verified them. Almost every region on the continent has received invitations from the Clear Sky Clan," Ghost Douluo said softly.
"Hehe, it seems the Clear Sky Clan is courting death," Su Yun chuckled, but inside, he pondered the audacity of the Clear Sky Clan's actions. What gave them such confidence?
Bo Saixi?
Su Yun knew Bo Saixi wouldn't leave Sea God Island easily.
Since Qian Daoliu was pursuing Tang San, Su Yun was sure Tang San knew this. Yet, he dared to appear so openly and even widely distribute invitations. This meant he had enough confidence to counter Qian Daoliu.
Who on the continent could match Qian Daoliu?
At this thought, a name flashed through Su Yun's mind—Tang Chen!
The patriarch of the Clear Sky Clan!
The King of Slaughter from the Slaughter City!
Yes!
Su Yun's eyes lit up. This must be Tang San's confidence!
Due to the God of Time, Tang San had inherited the positions of two gods.
Entering the Slaughter City was inevitable for him.
"It seems Tang San has entered the Slaughter City and rescued his great-grandfather," Su Yun mused, knowing that Tang San had passed the Sea God's trials. With his talent and the Asura God's intervention, he might have had a chance to awaken his long-lost great-grandfather.
"According to the original story, Tang Chen completed the Asura God trials but died shortly after due to years of erosion. Could Tang San have found a way to save him?"
Ghost Douluo stood respectfully, asking, "Your Highness, since the Clear Sky Clan is so brazen, should we..."
Su Yun waved his hand, "Since they're so bold, we must go, lest people say we lack manners."
"With the Pope still in seclusion, I, as the acting Pope, must attend." Su Yun glanced towards Bibi Dong's seclusion chamber, his eyes flickering. "And since Tang San is getting married, I'm sure the Grand Worship would be willing to go with us. Ghost Douluo, go to the Worship Hall and ask if the Grand Worship will join us."
"Yes."
As expected, the Grand Worship Qian Daoliu was equally shocked by the news of Tang San's marriage and the Clear Sky Clan's return.
However, instead of rushing to the Heaven Dou Empire as usual, he chose to travel with Su Yun and the main forces of the Pope's Palace.
"I thought you'd be eager to go," Su Yun said with a smile, looking at Qian Daoliu, who was resting with his eyes closed in the carriage.
"Hmph, I'm not a fool. I won't rush in blindly, only to find myself in trouble," Qian Daoliu snorted. "I don't care if the Clear Sky Clan re-emerges. Tang Hao is dead, and our grudge is settled."
"I just didn't expect that kid from the Tang family to be so audacious, openly distributing invitations across the continent. Something is definitely off, and I want to see what he's up to."
The Spirit Hall party waited for the appointed date, then assembled their forces and set off for Heaven Dou City in the Heaven Dou Empire.
"By the way, kid, have you thought over the proposal I mentioned before?" Qian Daoliu suddenly asked Su Yun.
Qian Daoliu was referring to the matter between Su Yun and Qian Renxue.
After summoning Qian Renxue back to the Worship Hall, she had successfully inherited the Angel God's legacy and began her divine trials.
Thus, Qian Daoliu immediately called for Su Yun, hoping to arrange a 'happy union.'
Unfortunately, both Su Yun and Qian Renxue refused.
Su Yun shrugged. "Grand Worship, aren't you rushing things a bit? Besides, if she's not in a hurry, why should I be?"
"Hmph!"
Qian Daoliu glared at Su Yun and snorted coldly. "I'm considering your future."
"In the future, when you both ascend to the God Realm, you can look out for each other."
Su Yun hit the nail on the head, saying, "You want me to protect her, right? The divine power I inherited is much stronger than your Angel God's."
Qian Daoliu's face turned red as he pretended to be angry. "You brat! My granddaughter is beautiful and graceful, can't you take the initiative?"
Nowadays, Qian Daoliu didn't harbor as much resentment towards Su Yun and instead hoped he would grow stronger quickly.
His son was already dead, and his granddaughter was his only remaining concern.
As for that woman... the future would depend on Xue'er to handle their relationship.
"No!" Su Yun shook his head. "I prefer being passive!"
"You…" Qian Daoliu squinted at Su Yun, as if saying, Are you kidding me?
...
A few days later.
Su Yun's group finally arrived in the Heaven Dou Empire.
To greet them was none other than Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, and the future successor of the Spirit Hall Worship Hall, Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue arranged accommodations for Su Yun and his party.
On the way to their lodgings, Su Yun noticed many unfamiliar faces on the streets of Heaven Dou City, clearly drawn by Tang San's wedding.
Temporary residence.
"Tang San booked the largest hall in Heaven Dou City? He even rented a large area for public viewing?" Su Yun exclaimed, looking at the wedding plans Qian Renxue handed him. "This guy is really wealthy."
The expenses listed were not small.
Qian Renxue smiled. "Naturally, most of the cost is covered by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. Ning Rongrong is entering as the primary wife. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan has been preparing for this day for a long time."
"And the Clear Sky Clan has kept their plans very secretive. Even when I asked Ning Fengzhi as the crown prince, he wouldn't disclose anything."
Qian Renxue turned to her grandfather, Qian Daoliu. "Grandfather, the Clear Sky Clan's plan this time is not simple."
"No matter their plan, we'll just watch." Qian Daoliu's eyes were calm. "If that boy has no trump card, I'll take him away."
Qian Daoliu looked at Qian Renxue. "Xue'er, although we have Su Yun in the Spirit Hall, Tang San must have made significant progress in his Sea God trials over the years. It's best to eliminate such people early."
Qian Renxue nodded.
"By the way, regarding you and Su Yun, I…"
"Goodbye, Grandfather."
Before Qian Daoliu could finish, Qian Renxue disappeared from the room in a flash.
Leaving the old man and the young man staring at each other.
"Grand Worship, you should say less. Forced unions aren't sweet," Su Yun teased.
"Hmph! I don't care. As long as I'm around, no one on the Douluo Continent will dare bully my granddaughter."
"But a hundred years from now, when I'm gone, who will protect her?"
"Anyway, you must marry my granddaughter and promise she won't be bullied in the God Realm." Qian Daoliu suddenly slapped the table, intending to force Su Yun, but noticed that Su Yun had already disappeared.
"This brat…"
...
"Don't take my grandfather's words seriously. I have no feelings for you." In the garden, Qian Renxue walked beside Su Yun, who had just escaped the room, speaking calmly.
"I think so too. The Grand Worship is a bit too controlling," Su Yun agreed, especially since he had already developed an irreversible relationship with Bibi Dong. If he got involved with Qian Renxue...
Just thinking about it made Su Yun shiver.
"But in the future, if you need help in the God Realm, you can come to me." Su Yun smiled.
Qian Renxue raised her chin haughtily. "Don't let it be you needing my help instead."
Su Yun laughed heartily, thinking: Our divine ranks aren't even on the same level. Beating you would be like bullying a chick.
...
After a few days of rest in the royal city, Tang San's wedding finally began.
On the day.
Led by crown prince Qian Renxue, Su Yun and his group arrived at the venue early.
Upon entering, Su Yun immediately saw some familiar faces.
The first to catch his eye were people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
"Clan Leader Ning, Clan Leader Yu," Su Yun greeted first. Being in public, it was necessary to show some courtesy.
"Acting Pope, thank you for coming," Ning Fengzhi and Yu Yuanzhen responded politely. Given Su Yun's status as the acting Pope of the Spirit Hall, they didn't want to offend him. If he disrupted their event, it wouldn't be good.
Soon, even the emperors of the two great empires arrived!
This showed Tang San's influence.
Or rather, the influence of the Upper Three Sects.
Seeing this, Su Yun smirked inwardly.
It seemed that the Upper Three Sects and the two great empires had formed a close alliance to counter the Spirit Hall.
Hidden behind Su Yun, Ghost Douluo, and Chrysanthemum Douluo, Qian Daoliu had the same thoughts.
He also observed his surroundings, noting the presence of numerous powerful individuals.
"The wedding is officially starting!"
With a loud announcement, Tang San's wedding ceremony began!
