After a while, Ning Liu's stiff body slowly relaxed.
He looked down at the mess on the ground and exhaled a long breath.
Tang Xiao.
Haotian Zong, Tang Xiao.
This is a surprise and a shock.
What does the system want to do?
Now, I am still not ready to completely disrupt the structure of the entire continent.
However, we have come to this point and there is nothing we can do.
"System, withdraw cash."
Ning Liu said to the system.
【Instruction confirmation. 】
【The character "Tang Xiao" is teleporting...】
There was no earth-shattering light, and the air in front of Ning Liu was only distorted for a moment.
The next moment, a tall and burly figure appeared out of thin air in the center of the room.
The visitor was wearing a simple gray robe, with an extremely majestic figure, black hair hanging unruly on his shoulders, and a resolute face, not angry or intimidating.
The moment he appeared, an invisible, heavy-as-a-mountain aura instantly filled the entire room.
This is Xiaotian Douluo, Tang Xiao.
At this moment, the face of the Haotian Sect Master was filled with confusion and wariness.
His eyes scanned the gorgeous furnishings around him, and finally settled on Ning Liu, who was sitting on the chair.
“Who are you?”
Tang Xiao opened his mouth and said in surprise.
"Where is this place?"
He remembered clearly that he was in the secret room of Haotian Sect a moment ago, trying to break through the last bottleneck of the ninety-seventh level.
Why did you arrive at this strange place in the blink of an eye?
And...
He could clearly feel that the soul power in his body was no longer level ninety-seven, but... level ninety-eight!
This incredible change set off alarm bells in his heart.
Ning Liu didn't speak, just looked at him quietly.
Tang Xiao's brows furrowed even more.
He looked at Ning Liu's calm eyes, and felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart.
Who is this young man?
Why are you looking at yourself like that?
Just when he was about to ask again, a sense of trance suddenly rushed into his brain.
Tang Xiao's body swayed slightly, and the alertness and sharpness in his eyes quickly faded away like a sand painting washed away by the tide.
Instead, there was confusion.
Soon, the confusion turned into some kind of enlightenment.
An absolute trust and reverence originating from the depths of his soul, filling his heart without any warning.
The young man in front of me...is the Lord.
It is the only hope that can save the Haotian Sect from the fire and water!
This idea is so natural, as if it is his innate knowledge.
"Plop!"
Under Ning Liu's slightly stunned gaze, the Haotian Sect leader's knees softened and he knelt down straight.
"Tang Xiao, pay your respects to the Lord!"
"Please, Your Majesty...save the Haotian Sect!"
Ning Liu looked at Tang Xiao who was kneeling in front of him, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
Sure enough!
Sure enough!
Last time, the system assigned a person who was "an enemy but not a friend" to the Xuanshui Sect.
This time, Tang Xiao was directly set to be a loyal subordinate.
You're still talking about this?
The system means that you must want to get involved in the Haotian Sect?
“Get up.”
Ning Liu raised his hand and spoke calmly.
"There is no need to perform such a great ceremony in front of me."
"Thank you, Lord!"
Hearing this, Tang Xiao stood up slowly, but still bowed.
Ning Liu leaned back on his chair and said calmly.
Ning Liu nodded.
"Now, you can talk about it."
"Haotian Sect, what happened?"
"It's worthy of you, the sect leader, to show this great gift and ask me, an outsider, to save you."
Hearing this question, Tang Xiao's resolute face was instantly filled with endless pain and struggle.
"Sect Master Ning..."
He opened his mouth and his voice was hoarse.
"The Haotian Sect... is almost finished."
"There is a Wuhun Palace looking at it from outside. The mountain has been closed for many years, and most of the sect's cultivation resources have been exhausted."
This is the second one.
Tang Xiao's eyes showed deep sadness.
"What really caused the sect to decay was internal troubles!"
"Because of what happened to my brother Tang Hao back then, the sect was forced to hide from the world, and the future of countless disciples was cut off. The seven elders are very worried about this, and their resentment is skyrocketing!"
Ning Liu listened quietly without interrupting.
After all, he has read the novel "Douluo Dalu", so of course he knows something about the situation of Haotian Sect.
But from the mouth of Tang Xiao, the client, the heavy feeling of oppression was completely different.
Tang Xiao became more and more excited as he spoke, clenching his fists tightly.
“They forgot!”
"They have forgotten what the foundation of our Haotian Sect is!"
"What is the basis for the No. 1 martial spirit in the world?"
"It is the indomitable spirit to move forward. Hegemony that is better than bending! It is the moral principle of being a chivalrous person and hoeing the strong and supporting the weak! "
"But now?"
Speaking of this, Tang Xiao's voice was extremely angry.
"There is only hatred left in the Haotian Sect now!"
"Hate for Wuhun Palace, hatred for my brother, hatred for me!"
"They just want to huddle in the mountains, waiting for one day to go out to avenge their hatred, but they have already lost the light that the Clear Sky Hammer should have!"
"The glory and justice that belongs to Haotian are about to be completely buried by the dust of hatred!"
He suddenly raised his head, staring at Ning Liu with his bloodshot eyes.
"Sect Master Ning, the current Haotian Sect is just a shell with an empty appearance!"
"It has...lost its soul!"
"I, Tang Xiao, am incompetent and cannot revive the sect. I can only watch it step by step towards the abyss."
"Please, please save the Haotian Sect!"
