Chapter 690: Chapter Six Hundred Eighty-Six: Release
While pondering over the secret letter, a figure approached the Chief’s table. Tang Luo looked up to see it was Tang Zuo, the head of the Dark Thunder Hall.
Tang Zuo first nodded to Tang Luo as a greeting, then ced another secret letter on the table and said to the Chief, Tang Zhi, “The martial artists who piged and extorted supplies have been found, and the supplies have also been recouped. This is the list of the culprits and an inventory of their booty, please review it, Chief.”
Chief Tang Zhi opened the secret letter, quickly nced at it and then closed it, “Thank you for your hard work. How do you n to deal with these martial artists, Chief Tang Zuo?”
“There are many ns involved in this matter. Punishing them harshly may affect the situation of the new alliance, so I only expelled several minor ns that were involved in piging and killing, and issued warnings to the others.”
“That is quite fitting.” After ncing at Tang Zuo who was still standing and not moving, Tang Zhi asked, “Anything else?”
“There’s also the matter of the whereabouts of the Mi n’s army descendants.” Tang Zuo replied indifferently, “Commissioner Tang Feng asked me to tell you that they took a spirit boat upstream of Lingjiang, and then joined Longjiang. It seems they n to travel bynd to central Longzhou, and their likely destination is Kunwu County.”
Actually, there were only a few ces in the whole of Longzhou that could be considered safe, and these were the cities under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Sect. These ancient forces that have been passed down from ancient times always like to have a peaceful zone to showcase their martial power, so Tang Zhi was not surprised at all about the Mi n army’s descendants moving to Kunwu County.
“If these people fled to the Outer Continent, it would be one thing, but staying within Longzhou is clearly dering their intention to return. I think we should send people to kill them at this point and make them pay heavily before they reach Kunwu County.” Tang Zuo told Tang Zhi coldly, if you don’t kill a thief, they wille back to haunt you. Although the various n descendants who left Xiling have no threat to the Tang n, which is rising like the sun, Tang Zuo, as one of the heads of the Tang n’s martial force, still follows a basic rule of action, the best enemy is a dead enemy.
After hearing Tang Zuo’s suggestion, Tang Zhi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, “Now is not the time to strike, let these people go.”
“Why?” Tang Zuo frowned unhappily, “Although the Mi n Alliance that escaped from Xiling is less than one-tenth of its original size, amongst them, there are topbatants from the Fierce Realm and promising youngsters. They won’t pose any threat to our n in the short term, but what about forty or fifty years from now? When these children grow up, they will definitely be obstacles for our n — bearing the hatred of their n’s extermination.”<div>
After all, how could the aplishments of children who grow up under the teaching of the top martial ancestors of the Alliance, and who bear the hatred of their n’s extermination, be low? If they don’t strangle these kids in the cradle, Tang Zuo always feels ufortable.
“In my opinion, you are being a coward, Tang Zuo.” Tang Luo teased after putting down his secret letter, “A group of roguebatants from the Fierce Realm and a group of immature children make you feel like you’re facing a great enemy. If the Tang n could be threatened by this kind of dogs in a few decades, the n would be better off dead already. We crushed theirnds when the Mi n was at their peak, but now we can’t let go of these children?”
Tang Zuo red at Tang Luo, asking coldly, “The Wind Media Department has only discovered the whereabouts of the Alliance’s spirit boat. Minister Luo, how did you know that the people who fled Xiling are a group of immature children?”
He didn’t mind Tang Luo’s mockery. Cowardly or brave, as a professionalmander, all he knows is how to minimize future risks for the n. Since this group of children could potentially be a threat to the n, he would strangle them in the cradle. Therefore, he did not care about Tang Luo’s assessment. However, he was enraged by the important information he inferred from his words. Tang Luo, who had not participated in the Battle of South Ridge, was not only not surprised that the Mi n had created a spirit boat but also knew about the members on the boat. This made him very angry.
“Alright, let’s stop arguing.” Chief Tang Zhi shook his head, interrupting the increasingly fiery exchange between the two.
The reason why I disagreed to attack the descendants of the Mi n now is because we have more important things to do next, and we can’t divide our forces.” Tang Zhi stood up, pointing at the map behind him, “Within three days, I want to gather an army to overthrow the alliance of the three ns in Lanshan City. Although the number of descendants of the Mi n Alliance who fled from Xiling is notrge, the ones protecting them are all topbatants from the Mi n Alliance, not to mention the presence of Great Mi Yang. If we attack, it will definitely involve a lot of our topbat forces, and the benefit would only be killing some children who might pose a threat to the n in several decades. It’s not worth it.”
The so-called good steel should be used on the de’s edge; toplete the unification of Lingjiang before the summer harvest is the top priority for Tang Zhi. Compared to this goal, these descendants who escaped are not worth mentioning.
Therefore, whether these descendants managed to escape on their own or were set free by Tang Luo, it doesn’t matter.
As long as the Tang n continues to grow stronger, to the point of despair for others, no fool would put revenge first. Living people are always more important than the dead. The world will dilute all memories, including hatred.
Having heard Tang Zhi’s final decision, even though Tang Zuo was begrudgingly, he had to give up. After ring at Tang Luo, the head of the Dark Thunder Hall left indignantly.
As he watched his younger brother leave angrily, Tang Zhi shook his head helplessly, then turned to Tang Luo and said, “Minister Luo, the supplies that were extorted from Red Cloud Mountain have been recouped and are now stored on the shores of South Ridge. You can collect them at any time. Also, I have a question to ask Minister Luo.”
“Please ask, Chief.”
“What do you think would be a good name for the new alliance, Minister Luo?”
“Ah?” Tang Luo was taken aback as he saw the dozens of names passed over by Tang Zhi.
He had always assumed that the new alliance was simply called the ‘New Alliance’. Who knew that it hadn’t actually been named yet? Such a nameless and constitutionless alliance had gathered more than 300 Fierce Realm members. It seemed a bit hasty.
New Longxi Alliance, Disaster Aid Association, Cloud Dispatch Alliance…
Dozens of all sorts of names made Tang Luo’s eyelids twitch. It was obvious that each n in the alliance had proposed a name and then let the alliance leader choose. Otherwise, it would be hard to exin why so many names embed their own n’s name into the alliance name.
“I think the above options are all pretty good.” Tang Luo shrugged, pushed the name roster back to Tang Zhi and said, “The name of the alliance is a very important matter. It’s better for the Chief to decide.”
“Oh, I see.” Tang Zhi took over the name roster, “Then let’s decide on ‘New Longxi Alliance’. What do you think of that name?”<div>
“The New Longxi Alliance?” Tang Luo tasted the name, “Not bad.”
It’s certainly better than the ‘Disaster Aid Association’. Tang Luo secretly criticized in his heart. If the Chief had really chosen the name ‘Disaster Aid Association’, he felt that the Tang n would move further and further down the path of being a viin n. Although the Tang n didn’t look like a proper n at the moment.
