The elder agreed to Tang Tian's request.
Tang Tian quickly took out a piece of Innate Dao Jade and asked the elder to engrave a special mark inside it.
This mark is almost impossible for cultivators below the Immortal realm to discover, and Tang Tian can also know where the Innate Dao Jade eventually went based on the guidance of the mark.
As long as he wants to, he can forcibly recall it.
This function can only be used once, but it is basically enough.
"Thank you, Elder."
Tang Tian thanked him.
The elder said, "It's nothing, just a small matter."
"I won't inquire about your purpose for doing this, but no matter what, you cannot do anything detrimental to the sect."
Tang Tian quickly agreed.
In fact, he just wanted to leave a back-up plan with Zhong Yang. If Zhong Yang can resist the temptation, then it would be completely useless.
But can he really resist it?
A barely noticeable smile appeared on Tang Tian's lips.
"Oh, by the way."
The elder suddenly said, "You are still an inner disciple of the sect now."
"Do you have any thoughts of being promoted to a core disciple?"
Tang Tian thought for a moment and shook his head, "Not for now."
"I am already an honorary disciple, and I don't have a high demand for that identity."
The last time I participated in the Flag Capture Battle was just out of temporary interest.
It was not something of great significance.
But the elder sighed lightly, "You should still participate."
"You have seen the atmosphere within the sect now."
"Xiang Ze, despite having great talent, has been raised into an impulsive, irritable, and arrogant person."
"It's as if he thinks he's invincible just because he has talent."
"There are quite a few disciples in the sect who are similar to him, so I want you to make a move and teach them a lesson."
"So that they won't lose their lives in the future because of their arrogance."
Tang Tian was surprised. He didn't expect the elder to say this.
Although his willingness was not very strong, the fact that someone had just tied him up was a small matter that he could still do.
It was just a matter of convenience.
"Alright, I will do as the elder says."
Tang Tian said, "But if I make a move, I will go all out."
By now, he could start revealing a part of his true strength, as long as he left some cards.
The elder smiled and said, "That's good."
"Give them a good lesson and suppress their arrogance."
Tang Tian also smiled. The elder always had a different perspective on things.
After that, the two didn't continue chatting, and Tang Tian took his leave.
Walking down the peak, Li Hong and the others were already waiting here.
Seeing Tang Tian return, they immediately knelt down.
"For the grace of your rebirth, we swear with our Dao hearts to never forget it!"
Their gratitude was overflowing.
The trip to the Dragon Transformation Pool had brought them great fortune, completely transforming them.
Tang Tian helped them up with a smile, "I already said there's no need for this."
"Just focus on cultivating."
Tang Tian didn't demand any oaths. Everything he did had his own purpose.
"Let's go back."
The group walked towards the foot of the mountain.
On the way, Tang Tian saw many high-ranking elders rushing towards the mountain with an unpleasant expression on their faces. He didn't know what had happened.
After a while, they returned to the Purple Bamboo Courtyard.
Tang Tian sat under the old locust tree and, after thinking for a while, called Gu Xiao Xue over.
After chatting for a while, Tang Tian told her everything.
Xiao Xue, although naive, is not foolish and quickly understood the intricacies inside.
"You mean, Senior Sister intentionally made me come out to be a guard?" Gu Xiao Xue whispered.
Tang Tian sighed softly, "I inquired and found out that the children of Innate, before Transcending Tribulation, do not need any elixirs to break through realms."
"I think your Senior Sister shouldn't be unaware of this."
"But we can't rule out the possibility."
Gu Xiao Xue lowered her head and fell silent for a while before whispering, "I understand."
"Ever since Senior Sister lost in the previous Hundred Sects Battle, Elder Uncle has been neglecting her quite a bit."
Tang Tian fell silent.
This girl is clever and not foolish in many situations, she just pretends not to see.
"I won't intervene in your matters, you'll have to handle them yourself in the future."
"But Zhong Yang has also involved me, so I have to make some preparations."
Tang Tian said.
Gu Xiao Xue nodded and asked, "What do you plan to do?"
"Do you need me to do anything?"
Tang Tian thought for a moment, hesitated, and said, "Um... I do have a plan in mind, but this plan..."
"It may require you to sacrifice something..."
Gu Xiao Xue was stunned and asked, "What thing?"
Tang Tian beckoned to her and whispered in her ear.
After listening, Gu Xiao Xue's face instantly turned red to the base of her neck. Her shy appearance almost made Tang Tian feel guilty.
"But... I'm only fifteen... I'll be sixteen in two months..."
Her voice was as soft as a mosquito.
Tang Tian cleared his throat, "It's just spreading within a small range, mainly to let Zhong Yang hear this rumor."
"Of course, if you're unwilling, I'll come up with a new plan."
Gu Xiao Xue remained silent for a long time, until Tang Tian became restless and ready to give up, she whispered, "It's okay."
"I'm willing..."
Tang Tian let out a long sigh.
The past few moments were simply agonizing.
Having received a positive answer, Tang Tian quickly sent her back to her room.
On the way back, the girl's face was still flushed.
After taking a deep breath, Tang Tian calmed his mood and called Li Hong.
"I want you to spread a piece of news for me."
He told Li Hong about his arrangement.
Li Hong was slightly stunned and asked, "Is it true?"
Tang Tian's face darkened, "Of course it's false, what are you thinking!"
"I just want to find a reason to give that old thing, Zhong Yang, a gift."
"Ah, it's just that Xiao Xue will be wronged and her reputation will be damaged."
"Remember, as long as Zhong Yang hears it, don't spread it widely."
Li Hong nodded and then smiled, "Actually, you're overthinking it."
"With your previous reputation outside, as long as Xiao Xue is assigned to your side, it's already assumed that such a thing will happen."
Tang Tian pursed his lips, "But the truth is not."
"Let's just do it this way, remember to keep it discreet."
Li Hong agreed and then left the Purple Bamboo Courtyard.
Tang Tian leaned back in his chair, looked into the distance, his gaze calm, not knowing what he was thinking.
Two days later, on his way to the Hall of Merit, Zhong Yang happened to hear a piece of information.
Gu Xiao Xue is pregnant.
After a slight pause, a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"That's good."
"Elder Han Hai, it's almost time for you to come out of seclusion, right?"
"Hehe..."
Zhong Yang walked towards the Hall of Merit with a light and brisk pace.
