-Has the impeachment proposal been passed? Tang Luo was still quite concerned about the outcome.

The elder shook his head, Its hard to say.

Tang Luo didnt quite understand. To him, either the proposal had passed or it hadnt. He wasnt sure what the elder meant by its hard to say.

Tang Cunfu himself had secured one hundred votes from the separate branches of the clan, as well as ten votes from Elder Tang Gaomin, even the votes from the legal head were in favor, Tang Hongtao was still very perplexed.

When all the votes were added up, the number of votes for the impeachment

of Tang Zhi exceeded two hundred.

It seems Tang Cunfu did a good job then, Tang Luo commented, not believing that so many people had objections to Tang Zhi, the clan head. The large amount of votes Tang Cunfu garnered clearly indicated a lot of political exchange.

But its no use.

Didnt it already pass the two hundred votes threshold?

The Sect Head and the head of the mountain alliance initiated wartime regulations, the Elder said, a look of disbelief on his face. Tang Kuan, known for his neutrality, and Tang Sen, who was notably uninterested in clan affairs, had unexpectedly sided with Tang Zhi during this power struggle.

It was baffling enough that Tang Kuan had taken a side, but Tang Sens allegiance was even more puzzling.

It was well known that Tang Zhi had supported his younger brother, Tang Zuo, in establishing a new branch, creating a rift with the Martial Hall. How could the First Head of the Martial Hall not notice this? It was hard to believe that he could still support Tang Zhi.

During the implementation of wartime regulations, the Martial Hall and the judicial institutions must obey the clan head; its the moment when the clan head has the most concentrated power.

And now, with Xiling as peaceful as ever and nearing the end of the year, the activation of these war regulations seemed unusual, as if buying time for Tang Zhi, preventing him from stepping down immediately.

Even if Tang Cunfu was vehemently against it, with the war regulations in effect, he had no choice but to set aside all his plans and be on standby.

Tang Luo, too, was deeply puzzled upon hearing this. He, who claimed to know Tang Sen very well, could not imagine that his stoic and taciturn father would initiate the wartime regulations for Tang Zhi.

These specialized authorities resided solely with the First Head of the Martial Hall and the Sect Head of the mountain alliance, and were typically triggered when the Wind Media Department sensed impending war. Hence, the whole clan would be on standby preparing in advance.

Ever since the emergence of the Wancheng Treasure Ship, the military strength of the Tang and Mi clans had been growing on an annual basis. The need to mobilize the entire clan for war preparations had considerably reduced. This tradition, however, remained.

This meant that the colossal Tang Clan would soon start preparations for war. Consequently, the Mi Clan, who were caught off guard by the sudden preparations, would also enter a state of readiness. Could it be that a war was imminent between the Tang and Mi clans this year?

Tang Luo brushed off this fleeting thought as he found it completely illogical. If they had seized the opportunity while Mi Clans Wancheng Treasure Ship was away and waged a war regardless, but now it was clear that the two clans were once again balanced. If a war ensued, mutual destruction would be the best-case scenario.

If the total combat power of Xiling were divided into twelve parts, then the Tang Clan possessed four parts, Mi Clan also four parts, and the remaining parts were divided among the minor clans of Xiling.

The small clans of Xiling had long harbored jealousy towards the Tang and Mi clans. However, their inferior strength had kept them silent. If the Tang and Mi clans were to go to war, these clans would surely scatter and form an alliance to attack the victorious side once the dust settled.

Therefore, if the two clans were planning a war, they must first purify the small clans of Xiling, a fact that everyone understood.

But now, Xiling was in a state of universal peace, with smaller clans merrily enjoying themselves. There were no signs of an imminent purification, suggesting that this war was unlikely to take place.

Therefore, this so-called wartime regulation might be unrelated to actual combat. Perhaps Tang Zhi had some important matters to attend to, and was temporarily unable to relinquish his position as clan head.

Tang Luo could only think of it this way. Although he had only met Tang Zhi a few times, in his heart, the clan head was an enigmatic figure.bender

Since Tang Zhi took office, the Tang Clans annual profits have steadily increased, and its strength has risen steadily.

Yet, no one could pinpoint exactly what outstanding things Tang Zhi had done -it seemed as though these growths naturally formed on their own.

As a result, people often commented, With such an easy job as the clan head, I could do it too.

But Tang Luo didnt agree. Take, for example, Tang Zuo, who was widely known for his arrogance and excelled in both literature and martial arts.

Why, even with his full effort, did he only aspire to be the First Head of the Martial Hall and not care about the position of clan head? Was it because of fraternal love?Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Why did the position of clan head fall to Tang Zhi-who was seemingly unremarkable-during the time of the last two exceptional talents in the Tang Clan? Was the Elder Council all muddled?

Tang Luo didnt believe in such notions. The closer one is to the center of clan power, the more one realizes that high positions arent for the incompetent.

He wouldnt accept the idea of a group of elites choosing a mediocre man to be their clan head.

So Tang Zhi must have been chosen as the clan head of the Tang Clan because of his abilities and tactics. However, the fact that such a person didnt have much of a reputation was worth pondering.

As the ancient saying goes: The highest excellence is not to let people know of your existence. The next, to be loved and praised. The next, to be feared. The last, to be despised.

Whether Tang Zhi was an extremely mediocre clan head or a clever clan head whose tactics were too profound to be seen, based on the steady growth of the Tang Clan over the years, Tang Luo leaned more towards the latter.

He was also present at the emergency council meeting in April. The promise Tang Zhi made over the North City land always seemed like a lure to collect grain, just so the separatist families could focus on grain collection.

But what was his real intention?

Putting all the conjectures aside, Tang Luo refocused his thoughts on himself.

No matter if Tang Zhi remained the clan head or not,

It had little to do with him. In this world of martial arts, only the power in his hands was the force he could control.

To put it bluntly, even if the clan head was a pig, once he grew up, he could still help the Tang Clan dominate Xiling. It would just be a matter of a few years earlier or later.

So, the current priority was to resolve the issues related to his cultivation. Sacred-level martial arts techniques, even if merely assimilated, were a daunting task. The number of blends seemed to have peaked at three. Once he tried to merge with a same-property, same-origin spiritual force, it would lead to a complete collapse.

In addition to the challenges faced by the fusion of the martial arts technique, Tang Luo still had unresolved issues with the Concealment Technique.

His thoughts were correct: the star core could transmit spiritual energy and store spiritual energy. But there was a major problem.

Once he attempted to manipulate the spiritual energy, the primary star core would continuously absorb the spiritual energy that had already been stored in the star core. Meaning, his Concealment Technique was both a success and a failure simultaneously.

The Mortal Realms star core could store 999 points of spiritual power and the Transcendence Realm star core could hold 9,999 points. Even if Tang Luo stored all of his spiritual power in the star cores, there would still be more than enough room.

To anyone attempting to sense aura, the spiritual energy surrounding the main star core could only be felt. If all spiritual energy were stored in the star cores, Tang Luo could even complete the transformation and become an ordinary human again.

But all of this was centered around the idea that he could not act. As soon as he channeled his spiritual energy, the main star core would start absorbing all of it again, taking back all the spiritual energy within a few breaths.

Unless Tang Luo could defeat his enemies in one move, his spiritual realm would be revealed if a battle broke out.

improvements had yet to be made. The young man still needed to work hard..
