Top-class Bodyguard Chapter 1002 979: The Events of That Year

The power of this finger was imnse, and the speed of the move was incredibly fast—it was Zhang Jianliang's hidden skill!

Tang Hongtu's heart skipped a beat; the force of this finger caught him sowhat off guard.

Almost instinctively, he ford his right hand into a claw and suddenly lifted it, aiming to seize Zhang Jianliang's finger!

The cultivation technique was unleashed, and suddenly a powerful suction was generated, causing Zhang Jianliang's abundant True Qi to uncontrollably circulate and fly toward Tang Hongtu.

Initially, Zhang Jianliang's fast-moving body stumbled due to this unexpected change, while Tang Hongtu abruptly reversed the cultivation technique, stopping the suction, and instead spouted forth a surge of True Qi.

With that, Zhang Jianliang's Heavenly One Finger was completely broken, and he staggered backward.

Ren Feng's eyes flashed with surprise; Tang Hongtu's move seed sowhat peculiar.

If he was not mistaken, it looked like Zhang Jianliang's internal True Qi was being manipulated.

Generally speaking, among cultivation technique moves, such an eerie move that can so effortlessly entice the opponent's True Qi is indeed rare, even Ren Feng might not be able to pull it off.

It's a bit strange.

And in a brief mont, the victory and defeat between the two were decided.

"I admit defeat; Tang Hongtu's reputation is truly well-deserved," Zhang Jianliang clasped his fists and said.

Tang Hongtu smiled slightly, "It was just luck."

The two parted, and the sparring continued.

All morning, both sides exchanged moves, and when noon ca, Tang Hongtu stood up and said, "Let's pause here for now. Everyone is hungry, why don't we eat, and in the afternoon, we can continue sparring and exchanging martial arts techniques, how does that sound?"

"Alright."

The group stood up and went to eat, taking the opportunity, Tang Hu ca over and clasped his fists toward Ren Feng.

"It's been a while."

Ren Feng nodded, "It's been a while."

Tang Hu smiled slightly, "I appreciate you showing rcy to Tang Xiao back then—is there anything I can help you with?"

His gaze fell on Shi Yi beside Ren Feng, a hint of curiosity arose in his heart.

Ren Feng's mind stirred, and he nodded, "Just so, I have so questions to ask you."

"Please, don't hesitate."

"Her na is Shi Yi, and I brought her to find her parents," Ren Feng said, "She's from the Tang Sect."

"Is that so?"

Tang Hu's eyes were full of surprise, looking at Shi Yi, "I recall, in recent years, the Tang Sect hasn't had any disciples missing or abandoned."

"It's not in recent years; it was decades ago, about twenty years ago, concerning soone nad Tang Dieyi, which is related to Shi Yi's background."

Tang Hu's face changed completely, a change that Ren Feng keenly noticed.

"Alright, we're here. This ti, please enjoy the Tang Sect's cuisine," at that mont, Tang Hongtu said with a smile.

The group entered the house, and Ren Feng reckoned it was inappropriate to ask further.

The lunch did not last long, amid the hustle and bustle, the al ended, and Tang Hongtu arranged for an elder to accompany Zhang Jianliang in exchanging cultivation techniques and martial arts, while he himself led Ren Feng and the two into the main hall to sit.

"Do you want so tea?" Tang Hongtu asked.

Ren Feng nodded.

Tang Hongtu signaled for the servant to serve tea, his gaze again fell on Shi Yi, and he remarked, "I didn't expect Churou to have grown so much now?"

Shi Yi was startled, "Are you talking about my na?"

"Indeed, your na should be Tang Churou."

Shi Yi seed still unaware.

Ren Feng didn't speak; he quietly listened to Tang Hongtu's explanation.

"The incident back then is indeed a taboo in the Tang Sect. If word of it gets out, it would be bad for the entire Tang Sect, so I hope you won't delve deeper. As for Tang Churou's father, he is our Sect Leader, Tang Dingtian."

Shi Yi took a deep breath; she seed unprepared for Tang Hongtu's sudden confession.

"Wait, how can you be sure that I am Tang Dingtian's daughter?" Shi Yi asked.

"Over the years, the Tang Sect has never had any lost or abandoned disciples; the only case involves Tang Dieyi fleeing the Tang Sect years ago. Furthermore, upon closer inspection, you resemble your mother, Murong Xue."

Ren Feng looked at Tang Hongtu, "Can you explain what happened specifically?"

Tang Hongtu shook his head, "I won't tell you about this matter; I've already said what needed to be said."

Ren Feng fell silent, and Shi Yi asked, "The Sect Leader, when will he conclude his retreat?"

"It's difficult; three years ago, the Sect Leader retreated for personal breakthroughs, he hasn't erged yet, and even I can't enter."

At this mont, Shi Yi's eyes showed a hint of disappointnt.

"But," Tang Hongtu paused, offering a slight smile, "I visited the Sect Leader's retreat place yesterday—judging by his tone, he should be concluding shortly."

"All you can do now is wait. I don't know if you are in a hurry, but you can stay at the Tang Sect during this period."

Currently, this indeed seems like the only option, and Ren Feng nodded, "We can."

"Alright, given that, I'll arrange for you to et other disciples of the Tang Sect."

Shi Yi inquired, "Besides my father, do I have any other relatives?"

She appeared extrely calm.

Tang Hongtu shook his head, "Your mother died at Tang Dieyi's hands back then, and apart from your father, you have no other relatives."

Shi Yi fell silent briefly.

Tang Hongtu dispatched soone to lead Ren Feng and Shi Yi out of the main hall. His eyes, gazing at their departing figures, subtly flickered.

Ren Feng and Shi Yi walked along the road, led by soone ahead, when Tang Hu caught up.

"Mr. Ren."

Ren Feng stopped walking.

"You showed rcy that day; I, Tang Hu, owe you a favor. What you want to know, perhaps I can tell you."

Ren Feng nodded, told the disciple ahead, "You don't need to lead us; let him lead instead."

The disciple affird and left, while Tang Hu led Ren Feng and Shi Yi directly to his dwelling.

After closing the door, Tang Hu also sat down.

"This young lady must be the one Tang Dieyi took away back then, Miss Tang Churou."

"What really happened back then?" Ren Feng asked.

Tang Hu deliberated briefly before speaking, "Actually, I only know the gist—what started back then was due to Tang Dieyi herself. She was a woman who attracted attention or, to put it another way, dared to love and hate. Later on, she betrayed the Tang Sect for a man.

Moreover, she took with her a unique skill from the Tang Sect, enraging the Tang Sect Leader at the ti, who directly ordered her assassination."

"Then, Tang Dieyi was originally unable to leave the Tang Sect, but the wife of her senior brother, Tang Churou's mother, had a kind heart and helped her escape, unexpectedly, Tang Dieyi instead used Murong Xue as a hostage and ultimately killed her."
