Yuexuan and Tang Hao

Chapter 98 Yuexuan and Tang Hao

Tang Yuehua, who was about to be visited by Princess Xue Ke, was completely unaware that she was about to be drawn into the power struggle within the Heavenly Dou royal family.

The top floor of Yuexuan is the private territory of its owner, Tang Yuehua.

This place is not open to the public and does not receive noble children. Without Tang Yuehua's personal permission, no one is allowed to set foot here except for her personally trained and absolutely loyal confidants and servants.

There are people secretly guarding the entrance to the building all year round, and strict checks are required to enter and exit.

At this moment, the air was heavy in the room deep inside the top floor.

The strong, bitter smell of medicine, the pungent smell of blood, and the stench of rotting flesh amplified by the summer heat—these three smells intertwined and filled every corner of the room, making one want to vomit.

A beautiful woman with an exceptionally refined demeanor sat beside the bed.

She wore a silver-white gown, the fabric of which was luxurious and the cut was elegant, with the hem flowing like moonlight and water.

Her long, smooth, light blue hair was carefully styled and secured with a single, elegant crescent-shaped hairpin, which accentuated her gentle features and graceful demeanor. At a glance, one could tell that she was a noblewoman of very high birth and excellent upbringing.

Yet this elegant and refined woman's face was now etched with lingering sorrow and weariness.

She sat quietly by the bed, her gaze fixed on the dying figure on the bed, her eyes filled with heartache.

The man on the bed was Tang Hao, but he had long lost the vigor and spirit he once possessed.

At this moment, he was emaciated, his face was ashen, his eyes were closed, he was unconscious, and his breath was so weak that it seemed he would stop breathing at any moment.

What's most shocking is that his left shoulder was completely empty—an arm had vanished, leaving only a gruesome wound.

The severed arm was still slowly bleeding, and the gauze had long been soaked through and discolored.

It was the height of summer, the weather was hot and humid. The wound spread, and the mutated flesh, which had just died, began to rot uncontrollably and rapidly under the high temperature, emitting a nauseating stench.

Even though Tang Yuehua had people change the dressings day and night and clean the area carefully, she couldn't suppress the putrid smell.

One year and a half ago, Tang Hao, injured and carrying young Tang San, appeared before her in a disheveled state.

.........

Tang Yuehua could hardly believe that the once-famous Haotian Twins, now the Haotian Douluo, had been transformed into this state.

From the day she took in her brother and nephew, she used every available resource to begin the rescue.

Behind the scenes, she used countless connections and spent a fortune to invite renowned pharmacists, healing-type soul masters, and even reclusive doctors from across the continent.

No matter how skilled or powerful the people who came were, they were all helpless against the strange and domineering wounds on Tang Hao's body.

The wound seemed cursed by some evil force; instead of healing, it grew larger and eroded day by day.

spread.

In the end, his entire left arm turned completely black and necrotic, leaving no chance of recovery.

Left with no other choice, he had to amputate his arm to survive.

Tang Yuehua still harbored a sliver of hope at the time.

She thought that as long as her left arm was completely severed and the root of the problem was cut off, her second brother would gradually recover.

Losing an arm would certainly be a huge blow to a Title Douluo's combat power, but as long as he can save his life, there is still hope.

But reality did not turn out as she wished.

After losing his arm, Tang Hao's injury not only failed to improve, but became even more dangerous.

The excruciating pain that penetrated to the bone and tore at his soul never disappeared. The strange wound reappeared, spreading from the severed arm toward his torso, slowly eroding his meridians, flesh, and life force.

In the past year and a half, if Tang Hao hadn't been a Title Douluo with extraordinary vitality, and if Tang Yuehua hadn't spent all her savings to find countless rare herbs and treasures to keep him alive, Tang Hao would have died long ago.

In order to take care of her dying brother, Tang Yuehua exhausted all her energy and no longer had the strength to personally teach and take care of her nephew Tang San.

She could only disguise Tang San and use all her connections to get him temporarily settled in the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

At least there, Tang San could cultivate safely for the time being, and the Spirit Hall's influence couldn't reach the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

The room was quiet.

Tang Yuehua slowly clenched her hands on her knees, her fingertips turning slightly white from the force.

Looking at her second brother, who lay unconscious on the bed, still suffering endless pain, the hatred and helplessness that had been building up for a year and a half surged up in her heart.

"Spirit Hall————"

She spoke softly, her voice trembling slightly, yet filled with barely concealed hatred, "Is this an attempt to wipe them all out?"

Back then, the Spirit Hall relentlessly pursued and killed the second brother and sister-in-law, forcing the Clear Sky Sect to close its gates and go into seclusion to avoid disaster.

Even now, they still refuse to let go of Tang Hao and his son, relentlessly pursuing and killing them, turning her once upright and strong second brother into the inhuman and ghostly figure he is today.

"And the Yang family—"

When Tang Hao came to seek refuge with Tang Yuehua, he naturally recounted his experiences in the Yang family.

Tang Yuehua closed her eyes, her voice filled with disappointment and anger, "The Yang family of the Po clan has actually betrayed the Haotian Sect out of gratitude, it's truly despicable—"

She grew up with Tang Hao and Tang Xiao since childhood, and they were very close siblings. Seeing Tang Hao like this, she naturally felt extremely resentful.

But no matter how much she hated or was angry, she was ultimately just a Soul Master without Soul Rings and a weak woman without combat power.

The Spirit Hall is so powerful that even the two great empires are helpless against it. What can she, a woman standing alone in Heaven Dou City, do?

Moreover, the Yang family, one of the four major affiliated clans of the Haotian Sect, was originally the most powerful in terms of attack and destruction. However, in the battle of that year, the Yang family suffered the most casualties and was almost wiped out. Now, after many years of recuperation and with the addition of new generations, the entire clan has barely grown to a little over a hundred people.

They hate the Haotian Sect.

Once the Yang family learns that this elegant and noble Yuexuan Pavilion was actually opened by Tang Yuehua of the Haotian Sect, and that it is a secret base for the Haotian Sect to secretly transport supplies and contact old subordinates in Tiandou City, they will surely retaliate.

"Master, Princess Xueke has arrived and is waiting in the flower hall downstairs."

A soft, respectful announcement came from outside the door, and an elderly woman with gray hair and a kind face walked in.

She was an old servant who had followed Tang Yuehua out of the Haotian Sect and served her for many years, and one of the few who knew the secret.

..........

An absolutely trustworthy confidant.

The old woman entered the room with extremely light steps, her gaze subconsciously sweeping over Tang Hao, who was unconscious on the bed, before quickly looking away.

Tang Yuehua slowly stood up from the bedside, composed herself, and nodded gently: "I understand, I'll be right there."

She was not surprised that Princess Xueke would come to visit.

The two had known each other for a long time and had a very good relationship. Xue Ke was simple and gentle. Even if she didn't attend etiquette classes, she would often come to Yuexuan to sit for a while and talk to her to relieve boredom.
