As soon as he sat down, Tang Xiao couldn't wait to ask, "Xiao San, I have discussed your proposal with the three elders. However, compared to our answer, I want to know more about what you think, Dai Mubai?"

This question had been rehearsed before coming here, and Dai Mubai answered fluently, "Master Tang, the position of the Crown Prince of the Xingluo Empire originally belonged to me. Davis used his mean style to slander and spread rumors about me, causing my reputation to be ruined, and only then did he gain the favor of my father. Such mean behavior is really despicable. If Davis really became the emperor, who knows what kind of turmoil would happen in the empire. As a member of the empire, I don't want and will never allow such a situation to happen."

Tang Xiao smiled faintly, and did not answer in a hurry. Instead, he asked: "Xiao San, I heard that Dai Mubai has a very serious injury. This will greatly affect his future. Is this true?"

Tang San quickly responded: "Uncle, I am 90% sure that Mu Bai's injuries can be cured. However, it will take some time. At most two years, Mu Bai will be able to recover."

"Master Tang Xiao, as Xiaosan's teacher, I have full confidence in Xiaosan's abilities. Since Xiaosan dares to speak, he must be confident." Yu Xiaogang chimed in.

Tang Xiao didn't care about Dai Mubai's physical condition. Even if Dai Mubai was a eunuch, as long as no one knew about it, he could still become the emperor. The only headache was that Davis had previously exposed this matter. If it was not handled properly, Dai Mubai would easily become the target of public criticism.

By then, all the efforts made by Haotian Sect would have been in vain.

Therefore, if Dai Mubai wants to stop the gossips, he must recover, otherwise Tang Xiao and the Haotian Sect will not provide any substantial help.

"Let's put this aside for now. Dai Mubai, tell me, if you succeed in ascending the throne, what kind of political achievements will you make, or what kind of political achievements do you want to make?"

Dai Mubai had fantasized about this countless times. When he became emperor, the first thing he would do was to kill the Davis couple and catch the bitch Zhu Zhuqing. However, this kind of thing could not be said openly.

Dai Mubai spoke eloquently: "As the prince of the Xingluo Empire, my father has taught us many times that we should put the people first. Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world."

Dai Mubai said a lot of things. These words were not taught to him by Tang San. Having grown up in the palace, Dai Mubai had been influenced by his surroundings and had finally memorized a lot of them.

Tang Xiao smiled and asked, "What if someone wants to overthrow your position?"

Tang San quickly winked. This question was not to make Dai Mubai answer the disposal measures, but to make him show his loyalty.

Dai Mubai understood calmly, and then said: "If I can ascend the throne, it must be under the premise of your clan's support. When that time comes, I will have to look up to Sect Master Tang to clear some obstacles for me."

"What if our Haotian Sect suffers heavy casualties?" Tang Xiao touched his chin and asked again.

Dai Mubai said without hesitation: "Master Tang, you are too polite. Your sect's disciples are unrivaled in the world, so how could there be casualties? If there are casualties, the Empire will settle their families."

Tang Xiao nodded slightly.

Dai Mubai does not have the conditions to ascend the throne now, so it is inevitably unrealistic for him to talk about the benefits he will bring to the Haotian Sect after ascending the throne.

The two sides talked for a while, during which Tang San gave Dai Mubai a lot of looks.

Tang Xiao saw all of this. What they wanted was not a wise ruler, but a complete puppet. Tang San was a member of the Haotian Sect. As long as he could always control Dai Mubai, the Haotian Sect would reap endless benefits from the Xingluo Empire in the future.

Moreover, among the fourth generation disciples of the Haotian Sect, only Tang San had outstanding talent. Tang Xiao also intended to give up the position of the future Haotian Sect Master to Tang San.

Finally, Tang Xiao stretched out three fingers.

"Dai Mubai, you are not worthy of Haotian Sect's investment right now. But I will give you three conditions. If you can complete all of them, Haotian Sect will support you immediately."

As the sect leader, Tang Xiao's words were naturally binding. Moreover, he was able to come up with three conditions, which meant that he had probably reached an agreement with the three elders.

While Tang San felt relieved, he couldn't help but wonder what the three conditions would be.

"Master Tang, please tell me. I will definitely complete it." Dai Mubai said solemnly.

Tang Xiao smiled faintly and said, "First, your injuries must be healed. And the whole continent must know that you, Dai Mubai, will participate in the competition for the throne."

"Second, your current strength is not enough. You have no advantage in the competition for the throne. Therefore, your soul power must break through the seventy-first level."

"Third, if you give up the marriage with the Zhu family, you must marry a disciple of the Haotian Sect. The Zhu family's status can remain unchanged, but my Haotian Sect cannot enjoy lower treatment than them."

"As the leader of Haotian Sect, I, Tang Xiao, swear with my martial spirit that if Dai Mubai completes the above conditions, Haotian Sect will support Dai Mubai to ascend the throne."

After a pause, Tang Xiao looked at Dai Mubai and said, "Swear on your martial spirit to repeat the three conditions I mentioned above."

Dai Mubai dared not neglect it and immediately expressed his opinion.

"Haha, now that we have settled the business. You have been on the road for more than a month, so go and rest early. By the way, Xiao San, there is a courtyard for you in the sect, you can take the master and the others to rest there."

With Tang San's status, he naturally couldn't get a whole courtyard. Tang Xiao used his father's name to force the three elders to get it for him.

Considering that Tang San seldom returns to the sect often, the three elders objected but did not take any substantial action.

"Uncle, we'll take our leave first. Uncle Ning should talk to you later." Tang San took the opportunity to tell Ning Fengzhi's request, "Uncle Ning has taken good care of me over the years. Now the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has encountered disasters many times, and even under such circumstances, Uncle Ning still supports the actions of my teacher and me. If the sect allows, please help Sect Master Ning."

Tang San would definitely not be so kind.

Ning Fengzhi benefits, and as a member of the interest chain, he can also benefit.

Tang Xiao was easy to deal with, but the main problem was that the three elders were not easy to deal with. Besides, the current situation of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect would not bring any benefits to the Haotian Sect.

He sighed in his heart. If it weren't for the tense situation on the mainland, the Haotian Sect would need three Titled Douluo to keep up appearances. Otherwise, he would have eliminated these three guys who were relying on their age to bully others.

"Xiao San, you guys go and have a rest first. I will discuss this matter with Sect Master Ning personally." Tang Xiao did not give any reply.

After leaving the hall, Ning Fengzhi had a brief meeting with Tang San and others.

Tang San's side was barely good news. As long as Dai Mubai gritted his teeth, these three conditions could be fulfilled.

But the situation on Ning Fengzhi's side is not so ideal.

"The three elders of Haotian Sect seem to be avoiding the topic intentionally. I'm afraid they won't unconditionally support Qibao Liuli Sect."

"Sect Master Ning, go talk to Sect Master Tang Xiao first. If that doesn't work, think of other ways."

The area of ​​the courtyard is not small, but there are no fallen leaves on the ground, which shows that someone comes here regularly to clean.

"Xiao San, it seems that you have an extraordinary status in the Haotian Sect." Dai Mubai said with some envy.

In the Xingluo royal family, only the crown prince could enjoy a courtyard of this size. Dai Mubai used to live in a very small courtyard.

Tang San didn't say much and immediately walked into the living room.

For him, this is just the beginning, and there are still many things that need to be properly arranged.

Davis has been in the government for a long time, and it is completely unrealistic to overthrow him. Even with the support of the Haotian Sect, it is not possible. They need an opportunity, even if they can only create one.

…

After several days of discussion, the Haotian Sect finally agreed to give Ning Fengzhi some help.

The Seven Treasures Glazed Sect was originally one of the top three sects, so it was not realistic for them to become a vassal sect of the Haotian Sect. However, in their current situation, they could not produce anything valuable.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

However, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's innate business acumen is the foundation that helps them gain a foothold. Therefore, the Haotian Sect decided that after the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is rebuilt in the future, it needs to give up some of the industry's equity to the Haotian Sect. To put it bluntly, it means handing over a certain amount of profit.

If it was half a year ago, Ning Fengzhi would never agree to it. But now, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is at the end of its rope, and Ning Fengzhi must compromise in exchange for a chance to breathe.

In the end, Tang San and his companions set out on their journey home with fruitful results.

Next, all Tang San needs to do is wait for the medicinal materials industry to stabilize, and then he will embark on the journey of searching for the gods.

…

On the vast ocean, even a giant ship that is hundreds of meters long is like a small boat here.

The Sea Dragon was originally a fishing boat, and its sailing speed was not very fast. After a month of sailing, it was still a short distance away from the outermost edge of the Demon Whale Sea.

Along the way, relying on the navigation map in Captain Chen Ping's mind, the Sea Dragon avoided the territories of powerful soul beasts one after another. During this period, they only encountered an attack from a thousand-year soul beast once.

There were many soul masters on the crew, and they worked together to kill the thousand-year-old giant octopus. In the following period, the crew on the ship even received extra meals.

"Sir, the fresh water reserves on the ship are almost exhausted. I just checked the nautical chart and found a small island nearby that can provide enough fresh water. Do you think we need to stop for a while?"

Water cannot be stored in the Void Devouring Flame's strange fire space, so Han Yu didn't have much fresh water on him. Moreover, when he used the Deep Sea Demon Whale King to break through the divine body, it would take an unknown amount of time. The fresh water in his hand could not be used before leaving the Sea Dragon.

Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. Now that we are already here, Han Yu does not waste a little time.

"We've been on the boat for so long, it's time to go ashore and relax for a while. Captain Chen Ping, you can make the arrangements. We'll rest on the island for three days, and then you can send me to the outskirts of the Magic Whale Sea."

Chen Ping was delighted when he heard this, and he immediately bowed and said, "Thank you for your understanding, sir. I will arrange it right away."

The ship was bumpy when sailing on the sea, and even experienced crew members would not be able to bear it after a long time. Imagine if ordinary people lived in a place where there were several earthquakes every day, how could they live well? It is conceivable that the docking of the ship was a great joy for the crew. Under the guidance of Chen Ping, the outline of a small island soon emerged not far in front of the ship.

Many crew members also took this opportunity to take out their homemade navigation maps and mark the location of the island.

As the saying goes, a crew member who doesn't want to be a captain is not a good crew member. Chen Ping started out as a crew member before becoming a captain. The sea chart is a treasure that these crew members and captains never pass down.

According to Chen Ping's recollection, he started sailing at the age of twelve and sailed for thirty years, during which he experienced countless dangerous situations before he was able to draw a relatively complete sea chart. It is conceivable how difficult the process of drawing a sea chart was.

Looking at the island getting closer and closer, the crew members gathered on the deck, everyone with a smile on their face.

According to the rules of the Hai Jiao, every time they docked, they would hold a party. The crew in charge of food was working tirelessly to move the cooking utensils out. After docking, they would immediately light a fire and cook.

The scene on the island brought back Chen Ping's memories. "Sir, this island is rich in a kind of green and yellow fruit. Twenty years ago, I had the honor to come here and taste it once. Unfortunately, this kind of fruit is very easy to rot after ripening, and it is impossible to transport it to the shore."

The closer they were to the island, the slower the Sea Dragon sailed. They even sent a small boat to clear the way ahead, because not far from them, there was a ship larger than theirs, stranded on a reef.

"This ship has probably been stranded for more than ten years. I wonder if those unfortunate souls on the ship have been rescued." Chen Ping couldn't help but feel a sense of grief.

This place is far from the land. If someone hadn't chartered the boat, they wouldn't have sailed here. The crew on the stranded ship are likely to be buried in this vast ocean.

With the help of a small boat, the Haijiao reached the shore safely.

Han Yu had no intention of celebrating with the crew members. He turned around and wandered around the island.

There may be ancient ruins on the small islands in the deep sea. If we can find the wisdom of our predecessors from the ruins, this trip will be a great reward.

I came here with the intention of sightseeing, so it doesn't matter even if there are no ruins here.

When passing by a "fruit tree" with green and yellow fruits, Han Yu couldn't help but laugh and said, "The mysterious fruit that Chen Ping mentioned turned out to be a banana."

There are indeed no bananas in the Tiandou Empire and the Xingluo Empire, so there is no unified name for bananas in the Douluo Continent.

Han Yu walked forward and was about to pick the bananas when he suddenly discovered that the bananas had been picked by someone. In addition, there were human footprints scattered around.

Even though gorillas and monkeys look similar to humans, their footprints are easy to distinguish. It was only a short time since they landed, and the weather on this island was very good when they landed, with no signs of rain at all.

To leave such clear footprints, they must have been made when it was raining.

There are people on this island! Han Yu was a little excited. Some ruins would be guarded by people for generations. But it is not ruled out that there are human settlements on the island. The presence of human settlements on deep-sea islands is most likely pirates.
