Chapter 521 (2/2)
Subsequently, Tang Longfei had also entered the Devil Domain with Xiang Shaoyun. He had personally witnessed Xiang Shaoyun's strength, and when Tang Zhan had learned of that, the only thought he had was that Xiang Shaoyun was truly worthy of being his sworn brother's son and that the boy lived up to his father's strength!
The moment Xiang Shaoyun arrived at the fort above the Devil Domain, Tang Zhan received news of his return. After all, this Bloodsin City was his territory. Nothing in the city could be hidden from him. After returning from the fort, Xiang Shaoyun had not gone to the city hall immediately. Rather, he had returned to the Skeleton Gang and got into a fight with the Noxious Blood Gang.
When Tang Zhan heard words of that, he quickly arrived with Tang Longfei. He was the governor of this Bloodsin City, a person of great power. For someone like him to directly come looking for Xiang Shaoyun made it clear how much importance he attached to this son of his sworn brother.
”You must be kidding, Uncle Tang. If I had known you were the governor here, I would have come seeking refuge long ago! Why would I have drifted about hiding everywhere?” Xiang Shaoyun said in a self-mocking manner.
Tang Zhan heavily patted Xiang Shaoyun's shoulder. ”Sigh, I know about everything that has happened. It has been hard on you.”
”No, it's all my fault for being so useless. If I had been less useless, how could that old scoundrel, Di Batian, have prevailed?” Xiang Shaoyun said, his voice laced with hatred.
”Di Batian is a traitorous b.a.s.t.a.r.d who had long been plotting to rebel. Your father's departure for his battle had given him the opportunity to do just what he had planned. You were still young. There was nothing you could have done,” Tang Zhan comforted.
”You're right, Uncle Tang. But I will personally take back everything that once belonged to my father,” said Xiang Shaoyun seriously.
”Um, it's good that you have such ambition. I will support you with everything I have when the time comes,” said Tang Zhan in a gratified manner. ”So, are you going to invite your Uncle Tang inside or are you going to let me stand out here as we talk?”
With Tang Zhan's reminder, Xiang Shaoyun quickly apologized, ”Your nephew was too excited to see you, Uncle Tang. I completely forgot to invite both of you in. It's my bad. Come on in!”
He personally led Tang Zhan and Tang Longfei in and ordered for tea to be served. Tang Zhan studied his surroundings, and his gaze eventually landed on Du Xuanhao. A praising look surfaced in his eyes.
Du Xuanhao knew who Tang Zhan was. His heart was overwhelmed with shock, The young master is indeed someone with an extraordinary status. Even this Bloodsin City's governor is his uncle! Looks like this will be a safe harbor for the young master, then!
Du Xuanhao was not some ignorant person. He had a rough understanding of the internal affairs of this Bloodsin City, and he also knew that the governor held absolute power within the city. The governor standing before him was definitely someone with an unfathomable strength. With such a backer, this city would indeed be a safe harbor for Xiang Shaoyun. The group entered the hall, and Tang Longfei took the chance to speak.
”Shaoyun, I heard you're a special-recruit disciple of the Dragon Phoenix Academy? Is that true?” Tang Longfei asked with a burning gaze.
”You are well informed, Big Brother Tang. That had happened not long ago,” said Xiang Shaoyun with a smile.
”So it is true that the Four Great Ancient Academies fought to recruit you?” Tang Longfei asked.
”They were merely being kind,” said Xiang Shaoyun humbly.
”Haha, I knew you would amaze the world with a single brilliant feat! Looks like if I fail to pa.s.s the entrance test, I will have to rely on you to bring me in!” said Tang Longfei with a hearty laugh.
