Chapter 62: A new journey
“Xiaodi, they have taken our mother.” Mie lien said. Then her eyes turned red, and drops of tears fell on the ground.
“What happened here?” Joey asked.
All of them remain quiet.
“Can any of you tell me?” He asked again.
“Boy, you and Mie lien follow me. I will tell you the whole story.” The old man said.
They both nodded and followed him.
Inside the room, they sat in front of the old man.
“Long time ago, a black dragon appeared in this city. It went berserk and started killing everyone in the city. That time, no one was strong enough to stop its killing. So every expert in the city, including me, is ready to fight all out with it.” He told them.
“Then a white color dragon appeared and stopped it. That was the first time I met your mother.”
Then the old man continued telling them the whole story. At the end of the story, the siblings shed tears.
“Grandpa, where did they take my mother?” Joey asked.
” They are from the heavenly realm.
This is a big insult to our Tangs.” The old man said.
The door of the room opened, and six men entered inside. They all bowed to the old man. They are all the princes.
“Sit down. Today, I will tell you about our family’s past.” He said.
“The Tang was one of the ancient human clans in the Heavenly Realm. We prospered during those days. We had many powerful enemies. Now, we are the only one left of that great clan. Alright, it’s time to stand together. So, if you have any animosity among your siblings, you can challenge a duel now.” The old man added.
Joey stood up and spoke out, “I challenge 2nd brother and 7th brother together.”
Then they all came to the combat ground.
Inside the ring, three of them stood there and were ready to fight.
“Begin.” The old man shouted.
The 2nd and 7th princes didn’t feel a bit of aura from Joey. But they didn’t go easy on him. The former was in the lvl 5 of the semi-nascent realm, while the latter was in the lvl 10 of the Houtian realm.
“Take my punch, trash!” The 7th prince took the initiative.
Joey caught his fist and punched on his stomach. The 7th prince fainted and collapsed on the ground.
“You dare.” The 2nd prince shouted. Then he quickly approached from behind him and hacked his sword on him.
Joey caught the sword with his palms too. He jumped and kicked on his chest. The 2nd prince was sent flying. He was out of the combat ring.
“It’s the 5th prince’s victory.” The old man announced.
At the same time, the 7th prince stood up slowly. He saw Joey before him, holding a short knife in his hand.
“I am sorry, 5th brother. Please, spare me this time.” He knelt before him and pleaded.
Joey caught him by his hair. Then he moved his knife slowly toward his head.
The 2nd prince saw all the movement of Joey. He crawled toward the ring and shouted, “No!”
The old man also shouted, “Stop!” Then, he appeared inside the ring to stop him.
Joey was even faster. He made a cutting motion.
But, no blood was spilled as they expected. Instead, he started cutting his hair and shaved his head clean.
“You two tried to kill me that day. By shaving your hair, let’s end our bad karma here today.” Joey spoke and walked out of the ring slowly.
Then he stood beside Mie lien and asked, “Zi Zi, now that I have done that. I felt great.”
Mie lien nodded at him with a smile.
“Others, who have grudges among you, come out.” The old man spoke out.
No one came out.
“Alright, now you all swear to the Heavenly Dao to never betray your siblings. We are Tangs. Tangs never fight among ourselves. We are ready to bleed and die for our family.” The old man announced boldly.
Then they all swore as he instructed.
“Alright, our ancestors left us with three godly techniques. Now, go to the ancestor’s tomb and comprehend them. Go. Within 10years, we will force our way to the Heavenly Realm.” He ordered.
All of them bowed once and left for the Tang ancestor’s tomb.

After a month, a handsome youth came out of the Tang ancestor’s tomb. Then, he came back to his place.
Inside his room, a middle man was looking at the sleeping girl on the bed.
“Son, you are here.” The man said.
“Master, how is little Xiuying?” Joey asked while looking at his daughter.
“She is fine. Luckily, I reached in time. Otherwise, her eyes’ power would destroy her body first.” He explained.
He then continued, “Son, it is time for me to leave you too. I will take the little girl with me. When you become the strongest man in this world, come and meet me at the highest peak of the Kun Lun Mountain. Also, take this. Your sister left it for you.”
Joey took the letter and kept it inside his interspatial ring. Then he bowed at the man.
The man nodded at him. Then he picked up the sleeping Xiuling and disappeared from the room.
After that, Joey read the letter. It was a goodbye letter from his sister. A week before, Mie lien’s master took her to their sect.
“Now, I feel all alone. Mom, within 10 yrs, I’ll come there to take you.” Joey knelt on her mother’s portrait in his room.
“I should leave this place too.” He murmured to himself and came out of his room.

Zhang family,
Old man Tang and the one-legged Zhang were currently drinking inside the room.
“Great-grandpa Zhang, why don’t you help us? Mie lien almost died that day.” The old man Tang asked.
“Boy, I can’t interfere at that time. The dragon’s tribe is needed for our future big plan. Also, it was a blessing in disguise for her.” One-legged Zang replied.
“Also, it’s the God clan that ordered them this mission.” He added.
“God clan. The one that destroyed my Tang Family back then.” Old Tang growled.
