Tang Chen said faintly: "Get up, you know that this old man does not like pleasantries."

Tai Tan stood up and asked: "Old Clan Head, there was no news about you in the past few decades. Where were you? Everyone thought that you had encountered an accident, otherwise, the Clear Sky Clan would not have been forced to enter seclusion by Spirit Hall."

"It is a long story. If I have a chance to, I will tell you in the future. Do you know where Bai He is now?" Tang Chen He sighed, he was the Clan Head of the Clear Sky Clan. After he disappeared, Clear Sky Clan began to decline and was forced into a bad position.

"The 4 Subsidiary Clans have remained in contact with each other. Do you want Bai He to come here?" Tai Tan replied.

"Yes." Tang Chen nodded.

"Then I will send a letter to him now and tell him to come to Heaven Dou City as soon as possible." Tai Tan spoke.

"It will be too late if we wait for him to receive your letter and come over. Let's go and find him instead." Tang Chen said, Chen Feng stood up as well, ready to leave.

"It will be too late?" Tai Tan said with some doubts.

"I am injured. I can only last for a month at most. Bai He has a 5000-year-old Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, it can stabilise my injury." Tang Chen did not hide his injury and told Tai Tan about his physical condition.

"Old Clan Head, with your strength, who can injure you to such an extent?!" Tai Tan exclaimed in shock. In his mind, Tang Chen is an invincible existence, with him, Clear Sky Clan can be called the number one power in the world. So who is strong enough to kill him or wound him to this extent?

"I will tell you the details on the way." Tang Chen answered.

"Then I will send a letter ahead to Bai He and tell him to bring the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng to Long Xing City, we can head there and rendezvous with him at the One Defence Clan's Residence." Tai Tan said.

"Then let's go," Tang Chen said,

"I will arrange the carriage." Tai Tan nodded.

"A carriage is too slow. At our level, we are much faster than a carriage, we might as well head there on our own." Tang Chen replied, although they have the time to ride a carriage, to prevent accidents, they should save time and get there as soon as they can.

"Old Clan Head, what about your injury?" Tai Tan asked with some worry.

"Don't worry about it." Tang Chen replied, as long as he does not engage a strong enemy, his injuries will not act up.

"Then let's go now." Tai Tan said, he then turned to look at Tai Long who was stunned behind him, "Do not say a word about what happened today to others, I will tell you everything when I return."

"Then what shall I tell dad? "Tai Long said embarrassedly.

"Tell him if he wants answers, then come to me." Tai Tan said domineeringly.

"Okay." Tai Long was clever and nodded immediately. Tai Tan has absolute authority in the Clan, no one dares to disobey him.

After Tai Tan prepared some water and food for the journey, the 2 set out.

Among the trio, the one with the lowest strength is Tai Tan. Apart from Chen Feng, Tang Chen and Tai Tan both need to rest when they run out of Spirit Power or get tired.

At night, the trio sat around a bonfire, eating the dry food they had brought.

Tang Chen told Tai Tan what happened after he disappeared. When Tai Tan heard his story, he was shocked. He had never thought that Tang Chen was undergoing a God's Trials all these years.

"At the beginning, I wanted to become a God as soon as I could. Looking back on it, I do not know if I was right or wrong." Tang Chen said with emotion, if he had not spent the past few decades being muddle-headed and controlled by Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King, many things could have turned out for the better.

"It's natural to seek a breakthrough, but it is just that senior fell into Rakshasa God's plot." Chen Feng stated, Tang Chen had qualified for Asura God's Nine Tests. If he was undergoing the non-corrupted Asura God's Tests, he would have long become a God.

"Little brother Chen Feng, I heard from that brat Tai Long that Young Master killed a Spirit Douluo with a *Hidden Weapon* named *Peacock Plume* on the way to Spirit Hall." Tai Tan suddenly stated.

Since he had heard about *Peacock Plume's* feats, Tai Tan has been very interested in it.

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng took out a cylinder from his Spirit Essence Device and threw it to Tai Tan, and said, "This is a *Peacock Plume*, but it has already been used."

*Peacock Plume* is different from the *Buddha's Fury Tang Lotus*, when you use a *Buddha's Fury Tang Lotus*, there is nothing left behind and you would have to begin working from scratch if you want to use it again, on the contrary to that, *Peacock Plume* only has a launching mechanism with 12 types of Needles inside, once it is used, the cylinder merely has to be loaded with Needles before it is ready to be used again.

"How intricate and complex!" Tai Tan looked at the launching mechanism in his hand with glowing eyes.

"After you go back, you can ask Xiao San to give you the blueprints for it. You may be able to create them since you are a Divine Craftsman, but the materials for this Weapon are very precious, it took even me a lot of time to find them." Chen Feng replied.

"I am the Vice President of the Blacksmith Association. I can get all kinds of rare metals!" Tai Tan declared, with his status, the thing he has to worry about least is finding materials.

"A weapon that can kill a Spirit Douluo, you brats are getting more and more shocking." Tang Chen said.

"I did not design this thing, I just made it according to the blueprints I got." Chen Feng shrugged, Tang Sect's *Hidden Weapons* are indeed a great cheat in this world.

"I am also a blacksmith. The complexity of this weapon cannot be created by any ordinary Blacksmith. It seems that in addition to cultivation, you also have high attainments in Forging. How surprising." Tang Chen said.

"Brother Chen Feng, can you sell this to me?" Tai Tan asked expectantly.

"It is too time-consuming to forge and I do not have the time to craft another now. But after obtaining the blueprints from Xiao San, you can craft it yourself." Chen Feng said.

Tai Tan reluctantly returned *Peacock Plume* to Chen Feng, and said, "With these things, the status of Blacksmiths will be greatly improved."

Chen Feng said lightly, "This can only threaten ordinary Titled Douluo, and that only when they are not prepared. If they are ready, then it will be ineffective to experts like senior Tang Chen."

Tai Tan said in an angry tone, "How many experts are there out there like Old Clan Head?"

Chen Feng did not say anything else, *Hidden Weapons* are just like Spirit Guidance Devices made by the later generations, they can only enhance the combat power of ordinary people, top powerhouses will still have to cultivate on their own.

After half a month of rushing on their way, the trio finally arrived at Long Xing City.

Long Xing City is much smaller than Heaven Dou City. After entering the city, they followed Tai Tan and arrived outside a large Residence, which looked very similar to the One Strength Clan's Residence.

Tai Tan explained: "The 4 Subsidiary Clans all follow the same design, hence the common appearance of our Residences."

The guard at the gates knew Tai Tan and immediately greeted him: "Clan Head Tai Tan."

Before Tai Tan set off, he had already sent a letter to Niu Gao and Bai He, the Clan Heads of the One Defence Clan and Speed Clan, letting him know of their arrival and that he needed them to be at Long Xing City for an important matter. As for what that matter is, Tai Tan did not tell them anything about it.

Tai Tan waved his hand and said, "Is Old Rhino here?"

The guard murmured in his head, "Only you dare to call Clan Head with his nickname", and answered: "After he received your letter, he has not gone out and waited for your arrival."

Tai Tan continued to ask: "What about that old fellow Bai He?"

The guard shook his head: "Clan Head Bai He has not arrived yet."

Tai Tan said: "Take us in first."

He had just spoken when a majestic voice sounded: "You Old Orangutan, I heard your loud voice from inside. Only you dare to call me with that nickname."

Inside was a man a head shorter than Tai Tan. He walked out from inside, his face was like jujube, his short hair was grey like a steel pin, his face was ruddy, and he had a pair of copper bell-like piercing eyes, his shoulders were extremely broad, and though he was wearing wide robes, you could still see his bulging muscles.

If Tai Tan is like a towering mountain, then he is like a broad and solid fortress.

This person is the Head of the One Strength Clan, Niu Gao.

When Tai Tan saw Niu Gao, his face broke into a smile, but he knew that it was not the time to recall their past, he said: "Old Rhino, I have some important business this time, I am not here to fight with you."

Niu Gao's expression became serious when he heard his words. He understood Tai Tan's character. Since the other party had said so, there must be something important they need to deal with.

He looked at Chen Feng and Tang Chen behind Tai Tan. Currently, Tang Chen was covered in black robes and Chen Feng was wearing a mask. He could not see their face and thus could only ask Tai Tan with his eyes.

Tai Tan said: "This is not the place to talk, let's go inside."

Niu Gao nodded and turned around: "Come with me."

Following Niu Gao, Chen Feng and the others entered the house and came to the living room.
