Nine Dragons Island?
Everyone in the Tang Family wore a strange expression. Although they heard that Tan Xiu was developing in Nine Dragons Island, they didn't know what it was like there. It was just an isolated island. Even if it developed, how far could it develop?
Tang Tang poked her head out and looked at Tang Guosheng, asking, "Grandpa, can we not go? We still have classmates, friends, and studies in Huaxia. "
Tang Guosheng shifted his gaze to Tan Xiu.
Tan Xiu cleared his throat and said, "It's up to you whether you want to go to Nine Dragons Island or not. The Tang Family is a big family in Huaxia, but that's just the surface. There are countless cultivation families in Huaxia, and some powerful families are hidden deep in the mountains and forests. I'm a cultivator, and I want to turn my family into a cultivator family. In this world, power and wealth are just trivial things. The real Great Dao is to have powerful strength. "
"The strong can crush stars with their fists, move unhindered across the universe, live forever, and look down upon hundreds of millions of living beings. The Tang Family is my family, and I want my relatives to become powerhouses. The space we're in is just a small plane among countless universes, and Earth is just a speck of dust in this small plane. "
"The choice is in your hands. Do you want to stand in the sky and watch the scenery, or continue to be an ant among the masses? I respect your choice."
As his voice faded away …
Tan Xiu cast a secret technique and a surge of power instantly formed an airtight net under everyone's feet. His figure flickered and instantly disappeared from the house. When he appeared tens of meters high in the air, all the core members of the Tang Family appeared around him.
"Aaaah …"
"Heavens!"
"What's going on?"
All the members of the Tang Family, including the old man Tang Guosheng, looked horrified. They were tongue-tied as they looked at the surrounding scene and the house below. It was like a dream.
"The legendary Immortals actually exist," said Tan Xiu lightly. "I'm giving you the chance to become Immortals. It's up to you whether you want to grasp it or not."
"I want to become an Immortal!"
After a brief shock, Tang Tang immediately clenched her fists in excitement and shouted.
Tan Xiu let out a faint smile and instantly returned to the house with all the core members of the Tang Family. Then, he said, "Uncle, I'll teach you cultivation techniques and provide you with a steady stream of cultivation resources, but the Tang Family will have to rely on you. I can guarantee you that even if you were the only member of the Tang family in the entire Huaxia Country, our country wouldn't dare to do anything to you. Even if some people wanted to do something to you, you wouldn't even need to do anything. Someone would take care of them for you. "
"Who?"
Tang Yunpeng asked in a deep voice.
"Duanmu Lin, Special Abilities Bureau," replied Tan Xiu with a faint smile.
Tang Yunpeng immediately looked ecstatic upon hearing this. He nodded repeatedly and said, "I don't want to stay here, Xiu. I also want to go to Nine Dragons Island to cultivate. But I'll stay here since you and the old man have decided. However, you must help me when I need your help. "
"Don't worry. As long as I, Tan Xiu, am alive, the Tang Family of Huaxia will never fall." Tan Xiu chuckled. "I'll send one of them back to Huaxia 10 years later to take over your responsibility. This person will be the most unsuitable for cultivation in our Tang Family and will have the slowest cultivation speed in 10 years."
Tang Yunpeng's eyes lit up and he immediately burst into laughter. "Great, great! You're really good, Xiu."
The next day …
The three brothers, Tang Guosheng, Tang Guoxing, and Tang Guoshou, left China together with their wives. No one knew when they left, nor did anyone know how they left. It was as if they disappeared into thin air. Even the guards and medical staff around Tang Guosheng didn't know about it.
The fourth day …
Tang Yunde, Tang Min, Tang Dong, Tang Yan, Tang Yunqing, and Tang Dong left with their wives and husbands. No one knew how they left. It was as if they disappeared into thin air in China.
The fifth day …
Tang Ning, Tang Ying, Tang Wei, Tang Tang, Tang Ji, and the only outsider, Chu Yi, directly disappeared from the Imperial Capital.
The seventh day …
All the loyal subordinates that the Tang Family had cultivated had disappeared from the Imperial Capital and the Huaxia Country. It was as if they had vanished from the face of the earth. Countless forces began to investigate, but they couldn't find any trace of them.
At the same time …
The incident that happened to the Tang Family finally broke out. All the influential families in the Imperial Capital, as well as the big shots in China, had activated the highest intelligence network and began to go all out to investigate the whereabouts of the core members of the Tang Family.
However, they found nothing in the end.
However … In the course of the investigation, they found out that Tang Min had resigned, Tang Yunqing had retired, and all the members of the Tang Family who worked in the government had taken the initiative to resign from their posts. Afterward, all the companies controlled by the Tang Family were merged into the Magnificent Tang Corporation.
The Imperial Capital, the Tang Family's ancestral residence.
Tang Yunpeng looked at the empty Tang Family's residence. There used to be some people living here, but now it was lifeless. Except for the dozens of Tang Family's martial artists who stayed to protect him and two Foundation Establishment Stage experts from the Tang Sect, there was no one else.
Knock, knock …
The door was knocked. Zhu Jianhua, Tang Yunpeng's secret technique, quickly came to his front and reported, "Patriarch, there's a guest."
Tang Yunpeng frowned and said, "How many waves has it been today? I'm tired after dealing with it all day. Tell him that I'm already resting because I'm too tired. "
"He said that he's Duanmu Lin. He said that you'll definitely meet him if I tell you his name," said Zhu Jianhua in a low voice.
Duanmu Lin?
The Director of the Special Abilities Bureau?
Tang Yunpeng's spirit was shaken. He immediately got up and walked toward the door. When he saw Duanmu Lin standing quietly under a tree in the front yard with a faint smile on his face, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Director Duanmu, how come you're here?"
Duanmu Lin observed Tang Yunpeng and smilingly said, "I promised Tan Xiu that I'll personally visit your Tang Family under the watchful eyes of countless people. That brat will definitely get angry if I don't come. "
Angry?
Tang Yunpeng was shaken inwardly. He faintly realized that the relationship between his nephew, Tan Xiu, and Duanmu Lin was probably not simple. Tang Yunpeng invited Duanmu Lin to the house in the backyard. After taking a seat, he said, "Director Duanmu, Xiu seems to still be in the Imperial Capital. Have you seen him?"
"No." Duanmu Lin shook his head.
Having said that, his eyes shifted to Zhu Jianhua, who followed him inside.
Tang Yunpeng followed Duanmu Lin's gaze and immediately understood what he was thinking. He waved and said, "Jianhua, get us some dishes to go with the wine and bring those two bottles of Gods Nectar. I'm going to have a few drinks with Director Duanmu today. "
"Understood!"
Zhu Jianhua realized that Duanmu Lin had something to discuss with Tang Yunpeng, so he immediately nodded and left.
Duanmu Lin nodded and said with a smile, "Yunpeng! Come to think of it, I've watched you grow up. I even held you when you were born! "
Cough, cough …
Tang Yunpeng couldn't catch his breath and coughed a few times. Then, with an awkward expression, he forced a smile and said, "You're really someone who won't stop until you startle someone to death! How many years has it been? How come you suddenly brought this up? "
"Don't you think we're very close?" asked Duanmu Lin with a smile.
Tang Yunpeng stared blankly and keenly realized that Duanmu Lin seemed to be … showing goodwill to him.
But!
Why?
He was the dignified Director of China's Special Abilities Bureau. Although he didn't show his face in public, he had great power. Even if he was a high-ranking official, he had to show a smiling face in front of him. How come he suddenly came to show goodwill to him?
Could it be …
Was it because of Tan Xiu?
Tang Yunpeng slowly nodded and seriously said, "You and my father are old friends, and you have a deep relationship with Tan Xiu. You and my Tang Family have a deep relationship, so it's natural that we're very close."
Duanmu Lin smiled with satisfaction and said, "I'm relieved since you're aware of it. You must mention me in front of Tan Xiu in the future. Also, maybe I'll need your care after many years. I need your Tang Family to take care of me! "
"I don't quite get it, Director Duanmu," said Tang Yunpeng hesitantly.
"We're already very close, so I think you should change the way you address me in private," said Duanmu Lin with a meaningful expression.
"Uncle Duanmu." Tang Yunpeng hurriedly said.
"The Tang Family will have a big plan decades later. Or rather, Tan Xiu will have a big plan. We'll be on the same side in the future. We're really on the same side. You don't need to ask about it if Tan Xiu hasn't told you about it yet. You'll naturally know about it in the future. "
Tang Yunpeng nodded without a word and said, "Uncle Duanmu, I'll be frank since we're on the same side. I'm afraid I'll need your help in the next 10 years."
Duanmu Lin nodded and said, "I can guarantee that your Tang Family's position in China won't be shaken as long as I'm still in my position. Tang Guosheng has left China, and your Tang Family won't be threatened because of his departure. The reason I came here today is to tell everyone that I, Duanmu Lin, am the backer of your Tang Family. "
Tang Yunpeng was shocked and a tempestuous storm was set off inside his heart. He had no idea how Tan Xiu was able to make Duanmu Lin say such words.
Suddenly …
"The old man above asked me to pass a message to you. You've been in your current position for several years, so it's time for you to move. What do you think about Shanghai? "
Shanghai?
Tang Yunpeng's pupils shrunk and his body couldn't help but shiver a few times. Then, he said with a serious face, "Shanghai is very good. Very good."
Duanmu Lin got up and patted Tang Yunpeng's shoulder. He then said with a smile, "Prepare well! Maybe it'll be tomorrow, or maybe a few months later. Alright, I've achieved my purpose of coming here today. If you see that brat Tan Xiu, remember to tell him to come to the Special Abilities Bureau's HQ to see me. "
"Alright, I'll see you off."
