Tan Xiu moved his fingers and a small jade bottle appeared in his palm. He then wrapped his thought around the bottle's mouth and the lid was instantly pulled open. A colorless and odorless gas floated out of the bottle's mouth. Tan Xiu wrapped it with his power and then floated toward Singtuo and the old man.
All of this was done very secretly. Not to mention Singtuo and the old man in the ancestral hall, even Singluen didn't notice it.
"I wanna know who's in charge of the Dark Shaman Clan now?" Tan Xiu looked at Singtuo and the old man with a playful expression.
"Tuo 'er is the Patriarch of the Dark Shaman Clan, so he's naturally in charge," said the old man indifferently.
"Well, it's much easier since there's a Patriarch now." Tan Xiu nodded. "Singtuo, is it? The current Patriarch of the Dark Shaman Clan? Don't you think your clan has been lifeless all these years? Even your own son, the Young Master of the Dark Shaman Clan, is so poor that he doesn't even have the money to buy things. "
"What do you mean?" asked Singtuo coldly.
"What I mean is actually very simple," said Tan Xiu with a smile. "You abdicate and give the position of the Patriarch to Singluen. I believe the Dark Shaman Clan will become stronger and stronger under Singluen's leadership. "
"This is the Dark Shaman Clan's matter. It's not your turn to worry about it, is it?" sneered Singtuo.
Tan Xiu shrugged his shoulders and lightly smiled. "What I said is the truth, and it's also the true portrayal of Singluen's heart. You can ask him if you don't believe me. "
Singluen looked at the calm expression on Tang Xiu's face. His heart, which had been hanging by a thread due to his grandfather's sudden appearance, finally calmed down. He took a deep breath and looked straight at Singtuo. "You're old, Father. Being the Patriarch of the Dark Shaman clan will affect your cultivation. You might as well pass the position of the Patriarch to me and let me take control of the entire Dark Shaman Clan. You can rest assured that as long as I become the Patriarch of the Dark Shaman Clan, I'll vigorously develop the Patriarch's power so that the strength of the clan will advance by leaps and bounds in a short time. As for you, you can also go into secluded cultivation in peace, and won't be affected by the mundane affairs of the clan. "
"Shut up, you unfilial son!" Singtuo angrily shouted. In the past, I would've considered giving you the position of Patriarch of the Dark Shaman Clan. But now, you actually colluded with outsiders and attempted to deal with your father. People like you don't deserve to be the Patriarch of the Dark Shaman Clan. You don't even deserve to be a member of the clan. "
Singluen's face turned cold and he said in a deep voice, "Father, do you mean you don't want to hand over the Patriarch position to me? Do you know that Singkuo is going to die soon? Other than me, you don't have a second son to pass the throne to. "
Singtuo's eyes gleamed and he asked in a deep voice, "So, Singkuo is still alive?"
"He's indeed alive, but he's not far from death," snorted Singluen coldly.
"Where is Singkuo?" asked Singtuo in a deep voice.
"You still care about your eldest son?" Singluen angrily retorted. "Hahaha … I already knew that you're biased, but I didn't expect you to be this biased. Singkuo has been suppressing me all these years, to the point that I can't even breathe. Besides, I'm afraid he'll attack me for the Patriarch position. But not only did you not help me, you even helped Singkuo. I … I'm very disappointed in you. "
"Singkuo is courageous and resourceful. He's the best candidate to inherit the Dark Shaman Clan's Patriarch position," said Singtuo hatefully. "But you can't compare with him, so I can only choose the best one. But I don't want you to die. I knew that you and Singkuo were going to fight to the death, so I sent Singli and the 13 Shaman Guardians to protect you in secret. "
Tan Xiu patted Singluen's shoulder and lightly said, "There's nothing more to say now that things have come to this. It's obvious that he won't hand over the Patriarch position to you so easily. Therefore, we can only threaten him with force unless he's not afraid of death. "
Singtuo angrily glared at Tan Xiu and shouted, "It seems that you really want to meddle in the affairs of our Dark Shaman Clan. Aren't you afraid of dying here? "
"Me dying here?" Tan Xiu sneered. "You're talking nonsense, aren't you? Try to circulate your sorcery power and tell me what you think, Singtuo. "
Singtuo stared blankly for a moment and immediately tried to circulate his sorcery power. His face suddenly changed as he found that his body felt weak and numb. It became a bit strenuous to circulate the sorcery power in his meridians.
What's going on?
Singtuo quickly turned his head to look at his father.
The old man frowned and also secretly circulated the sorcery power in his body. Immediately after, his complexion turned ashen and fear flashed in his eyes. When he looked up at Tang Xiu, he shouted sternly, "What the hell did you do? Why … "
Tan Xiu interrupted him and grinned, "Why do you feel that it's a bit strenuous to circulate the sorcery power in your body? Why do you feel that your body is numb? Alright, alright! I'm someone who likes to help others achieve their goals, so I'll satisfy your curiosity. I've already secretly poisoned you when we came here. Everyone in the ancestral hall has been poisoned, and no one in this world can give you the antidote except for me. "
"Goddammit!"
The old man's expression drastically changed and he instantly lunged at Tan Xiu.
Tan Xiu grabbed Singluen's shoulder and retreated dozens of meters in an instant. Then, he laughed aloud and said, "But I advise you to hurry up if you want to fight me. The more time passes, the more strenuous it will be for you to circulate your sorcery power and the more intense the numbness in your body will be. Of course, you must also be prepared. If you really want to fight with us, I'll kill all of you after your strength is greatly damaged. That way, I'll help Singluen cultivate another batch of sorcery cultivators. "
"Get back!"
Tang Guang suddenly appeared in front of Tan Xiu and fiercely slashed his immortal sword, causing the old man's heartbeat to accelerate. Just as he was about to dodge, another immortal sword silently appeared in front of him. Although it didn't seem to be very powerful, it was too fast and extremely tricky. He could only give up attacking Tan Xiu and retreated back to the ancestral hall.
Tan Xiu took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it up and took two deep puffs. Then, he exhaled a mouthful of smoke and said, "A wise man submits to the circumstances, everyone. Since we've come here, it means that we're fully prepared. No matter how much you struggle, I'll control your fate. If you want to live, then let Singluen be the new Patriarch of your clan. But if you want to die, I can help you. "
"I'll kill you!"
Singtuo instantly pulled out a scimitar from his waist and raised the staff in his left hand. The scimitar in his right hand fiercely slashed at Tan Xiu.
"Enough!"
The old man's figure flickered and directly dispelled Singtuo's attack. Under Singtuo's incredulous eyes, he looked at Tan Xiu and said, "Is your purpose really that simple? To help Singluen become the Patriarch of my Dark Shaman clan? Or is there any deal between you and Singluen? "
Tan Xiu gave a thumbs up and praised, "Sure enough, the older the ginger, the wiser the spicier. You guessed it right. There is indeed a deal between me and Singluen, but it's a deal in which both sides can benefit from it. I'm not the only one taking advantage of it. Am I right, Singluen? "
"You're right." Singluen nodded.
The old man squinted his eyes and asked, "I want to know the content of your deal. Don't hide it and don't lie because you can't hide it for long. I'm afraid more unforeseen events will happen once it's exposed. "
"Grandpa, Mr. Tang needs the Sorcerer Stone, and he's willing to exchange it with medicinal pills," said Singluen. "I didn't know about medicinal pills before, but after I got them from Mr. Tang, I realized how helpful they are to our witchcraft cultivation. “
The old man looked incredulous and angrily shouted, "Shut the hell up! Don't you know what the Sorcerer Stone means to our Dark Shaman clan? It's the foundation of our Dark Shaman Clan and the best auxiliary material for our cultivation. Without the Sorcerer Stone, none of the clansmen of our clan will be able to cultivate to a strong realm in the future. You, you, you … you're a bastard! "
"That's because you don't understand what medicinal pills mean to us witchcraft cultivation, Grandpa," said Singluen indifferently. I can tell you that with just one pill, my strength advanced by leaps and bounds. In just a few short days, I advanced by a whole realm. It's only been a few months since I met Mr. Tang, but I've taken two medicinal pills from him during this period, and my cultivation has also broken through two realms. Do you think I can break through two realms in such a short time just by absorbing the witchcraft power from the Sorcerer Stone? "
The old man looked at Singluen with a bewildered expression. After a long while, he said, "Don't talk nonsense. Don't tell me that the elders of our clan haven't discovered it if the medicinal pills are useful to us witchcraft cultivators? "
Singluen pointed to the delicate woman and his five guardian elders and seriously said, "I'm absolutely not lying. I know it's meaningless to lie. All six of them have taken the medicinal pills, so their cultivation has improved a lot. You may not know about it, but my father must know about my previous strength. I'm afraid he also knows about the strength of the six of them. But look at us now? Aren't we much stronger than before? "
Singtuo could sense the aura released by Singluen's group of seven. In just a few seconds, he was dumbfounded and shocked to the point that it was difficult to be more shocked.
Previously …
He heard from the 13 Shaman Guardians that Singluen's strength had greatly improved. Even his men's strength had advanced by leaps and bounds, to the point that they were almost on par with Singkuo and his five guardian elders. He didn't believe it at that time, but now it seemed to be true!
"Your surname is Tang?"
Singtuo looked at Tan Xiu and asked.
"That's right. My surname is Tan Xiu," said Tan Xiu with a faint smile. If you know more about Hua Xia, I'm afraid you should know me. "
