Chapter 205 Imperial Master Tang Family
Dongfang Ji covered his mouth, his round eyes wandering around. Oh no, the matter was leaked.
He smiled awkwardly, trying to get away with it.
But Old Man Tang refused to give in. He hooked his arm around his neck and said excitedly, "If it's really divination, then we're from the same hometown. When fellow villagers meet, their eyes brimming with tears. Introduce me to Tang Liangjun, and I'll share my tears with him."
Oriental Festival:
Tang Liangjun, who didn't want to be tearful:
The three of them were silent for a while, and finally Tang Liangjun took the initiative to step forward and admit his identity.
"I'm Tang Liangjun. I've heard of the name of the Northern Beast Taming Family, the Tang family, for a long time, but I've never had the chance to meet them. I never expected to meet you on Exile Star."
Tang Liangjun had a handsome, fair, and delicate face. He smiled faintly, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and bowed slightly, performing a special etiquette belonging to the Han Dynasty.
As soon as Father Tang saw him, he knew that this man was undoubtedly from the Tang family, a family of fortune-telling.
Then, with a deep look in his eyes, he asked calmly, "Why did you come to this Exile Planet?"
As far as he knew, although both were families that inherited the secret arts, the Tang family was much more popular than his own beast-taming family, the Tang family. The ancestors of the Tang family had been appointed as national masters by the King of Han for generations, until a certain King of Han, who was extremely ambitious and did not want to be bound by anyone, took back the military power and most of the rights of his ministers, and even took away the extremely prestigious position of national master.
However, the ancestor of the Tang family had such strong divination and fortune-telling abilities that he seemed to have already prepared a plan to deal with the situation. Although the Tang family was stripped of the title of national teacher, their status in the Han Dynasty remained unchanged.
The extremely ambitious King Han also seemed to have some reservations and never touched the Tang family, but only allowed the Tang family to become semi-hidden masters.
It can be said that the Tang family had an absolute position in the Han Dynasty. As long as the Han Dynasty existed, the Tang family would exist.
But now the descendants of the Tang family have also appeared on this exile planet, which makes him have to doubt.
Tang Liangjun's expression changed slightly, looking a bit ugly and lonely. "Because of a change in my family, the elders in my family predicted that the Tang family would be destroyed, so they sent us Tang descendants away from Borneo Star in batches. When I was leaving Borneo Star, I encountered people chasing me, and by chance I came to this exile planet, but I just happened to avoid their pursuit."
Old Man Tang's pupils shrank. It was so similar to what he had experienced before.
"Is there someone who is deliberately trying to capture the inheritor of the secret technique in the Han Dynasty?" he asked in a lost voice.
Tang Liangjun showed a slight surprise on his face, admiring his sharpness.
He was silent for a few seconds, but ultimately chose to tell the truth. "Senior, your guess is correct. After the Tang family of Northern Beast Taming was annihilated, my grandfather had a vague sense of something was amiss. In the following years, the Wu, Hua, and Yi families were also wiped out by mysterious individuals. When it came to our Tang family, my grandfather's ominous premonition became even more intense. After forcing his way through divination, he calculated that the Tang family's doom was imminent. He also divined that someone coveted our secret arts. Over the years, the tragedies that befell families inheriting the secret arts have all come at the hands of the same force."
When Tang Liangjun finished speaking, Old Man Tang's face had become very ugly.
I originally thought that it was only aimed at their Tang family, but I didn't expect that other families were involved as well.
Since the Wu family's weapon-making skills, the Hua family's sealing skills, the Yi family's witchcraft, and the Tang family's divination skills have all been coveted by those people, then the Shen family's alchemy skills, the Cen family's talismans, and the Yu family's formations are also being targeted.
However, since we cannot find the descendants of those families on this Exile Star, we don’t know what their current situation is.
But judging by the methods of the person who took action before, if those families were also targeted, they would probably be doomed.
Father Tang's face was heavy. "Then, are you still in contact with the rest of the Tang family? Or the Han Dynasty? How is the King of Han?"
Tang Liangjun's expression darkened slightly, and he became a little depressed. He seemed to have become lonely.
Finally, his voice was hoarse. "Only my father and mother are still in contact. My mother said that the Han Dynasty is in chaos. The old Han King died suddenly of an illness. After the new Han King ascended the throne, he was bewitched and killed many loyal ministers and generals. The Han Dynasty is now on the decline and is about to collapse."
When Old Man Tang heard this, his heart tightened, his brows furrowed, and his fists clenched.
He grew up in the Han Dynasty. When he was a child, he followed his father to meet the gentle and kind old Han King. He also silently vowed to be loyal to the old Han King and become his general. However, he did not expect that he would encounter a big change in his family just after he signed up for the army. After accidentally escaping from the Han Dynasty, he has been hiding in the interstellar space and became an interstellar wanderer.
The oath he had made had never been fulfilled, and even though the benevolent king would not blame him for breaking his promise, he still felt guilty.
Now, when he heard the news that the old man Wang had passed away, even a strong man like him couldn't help but have tears in his eyes and feel sad.
At the same time, he was even more annoyed with the new King of Han who took over. From Tang Liangjun's words, he already knew that the new King of Han was not a qualified king, and was even less qualified to succeed the old King of Han.
But, he couldn't go back and teach him a lesson now, so he could only look at him with red eyes and feel annoyed.
He was also somewhat dissatisfied with being on this exile planet where he could only enter but not leave.
"senior?"
Hearing Tang Liangjun's voice and concern, Old Man Tang came back to his senses.
After looking away and sorting out his emotions, he continued to look at Tang Liangjun, and his eyes became softer. "If you need help in the future, just come to me for help."
"Ah, thank you, senior." Tang Liangjun did not reject his kindness, but just smiled. He had a premonition that he would have a lot of interactions with this senior in the future.
Although there was no scene of fellow villagers brimming with tears when Dongfang Ji met his two fellow villagers, the warm atmosphere between them showed that they got along well.
So he was no longer afraid of bothering Old Man Tang, and excitedly followed Tang Liangjun in calling him "senior".
"Is what you said before true? Help me summon the Berserker Beast so I can kill it and help me defeat that sinister and treacherous Xun Min."
Dad Tang came back to his senses, calmed down, and in a second he turned back into the smiling, uninhibited Dad Tang he was just now.
"Sure, of course. But you have to tell me your abilities and how many you can kill at once so I can estimate."
Dongfang Ji's eyes lit up, "I have S-rank archery ability. Words like "shooting an arrow through a hundred steps," "hitting the target with a hundred shots," and "killing two birds with one stone" are all descriptions of me. That's what I am."
He gave a thumbs-up sign.
Then he showed his two little canine teeth and laughed, "You're awesome!"
Father Tang patted his shoulder cheerfully and said, "Not bad, young man. Let's do it this way. I'll lure the beast over and you can kill it."
