Chapter 5 The Future of the Destroyer Clan
Everyone present looked at Yang Wudi with puzzled expressions.
Yang Wudi spoke up: "Everyone, please don't rush. Let's take a look at this latest news."
Yang Wushuang picked up the note first, glanced at it, and then his eyes widened, clearly the contents of the note were quite unexpected.
After being passed around, everyone else saw the contents of the note: Pope Qian Xunji of the Spirit Hall was leading Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo out.
Yang Wudi glanced at everyone: "This is the latest information I received, provided by a spy within the Spirit Hall. The Spirit Hall's Pope, Qian Xunji, has led Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo out of Spirit City. What their specific purpose is, nobody knows right now."
"As you probably know, the conflict between us and the Spirit Hall has been escalating in recent years, and we could fight at any time. I feel uneasy about this battle, and I also feel that something is wrong. I feel a little uneasy."
"Whether it's fighting or dying in battle, I, Yang Wudi, am not afraid, and neither is my entire Po clan. But Podi is just a child and doesn't understand anything. So let's just let him go to Tiandou City to play."
At this moment, Yang Wushuang spoke up: "Brother, what you mean is—"
"I didn't mean anything by it. We older generation can die, but the younger generation in our family are still too young. We need to leave some hope for the family."
"Brother, what are your plans?"
"Wushuang, this time you will personally lead the team, along with Zhentian and Jinfeng, and all the children under the age of 12 in the family to visit Tiandou City. Remember, if this turmoil doesn't stop, don't come back yet."
"But, brother, if something really happens, you'll be all alone at home."
"Wushuang, don't worry, I'm not old yet. I can still manage things here with the family. The key is with you; you are the hope of our Po clan."
Upon hearing these words, everyone around fell silent.
Finally, Yang Wushuang nodded heavily: "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely take care of these children."
After Yang Podi slipped out of his house, before he could even look for the carriage heading towards Tiandou City, his mother, Niu Jinfeng, grabbed him by the neck and stopped him.
Upon seeing his tall mother, Yang Podi immediately adopted a childlike demeanor: "Mom, what brings you here? You're not here to take me home, are you?"
Niu Jinfeng seemed a little unhappy: "You little rascal, didn't I say I'd take you to Tiandou City in a few days? How dare you sneak out by yourself?"
"I was afraid you wouldn't take me."
"Fine, I won't hit you this time. Let's go home now, and we'll go together tomorrow."
"Going together? Mom, what does that mean? Does anyone else want to come along?"
Niu Jinfeng looked at Yang Podi with a meaningful look: "Your grandfather just said that since we are going on a trip, we can't be too biased. So your second grandfather will take all the children in our clan on the trip together. That way, we can feel more at ease."
Yang Podi was very surprised to hear this: "Grandpa said all of us children should go on a trip together? What does Grandpa mean by that?" "What could it mean? Why are you thinking so much, you little kid?"
And so Yang Podi was taken back to the Po family by his mother, Niu Jinfeng.
Back home, Yang Podi carefully considered his grandfather's decision: Could it be that his grandfather also sensed something was amiss, or felt danger, and thus sent all the children of the family to Tiandou City for refuge? Or had his grandfather received some kind of message?
The next morning, Yang Podi was woken up early. He went to the courtyard, which contained all the children under the age of 12. There were forty or fifty children in total.
Specifically, the team was led by the second grandfather, Yang Wushuang. In addition to the second grandfather, there were ten other adults, including his father, Yang Zhentian, and mother, Niu Jinfeng, as well as several people holding children. The others were clearly mothers of young children.
The children were overjoyed to hear they were going to Tiandou City, with several younger ones even whimpering excitedly. After all, going out for a trip is always a happy thing, especially to one of the most prosperous cities on the continent—Tiandou City.
Under everyone's arrangement, the children boarded the carriages waiting at the entrance; there were nine carriages in total. Each carriage carried one or two adults and several children. Yang Podi followed his father and mother, while the other children boarded the last carriage, clearly intending for his father to stay behind and take care of the rest of the caravan.
Vice Clan Chief Yang Wushuang, in the lead carriage, gave the order, and all the carriages set off towards Tiandou City.
After the carriage departed, Yang Podi watched the Po Clan's encampment gradually recede into the distance, secretly thinking: I hope the Po Clan can escape this crisis. Without the burden of us children, the clan should be able to lose fewer people. I hope that if war really breaks out, Grandpa can lead the clan to Tiandou City, since Tiandou City is one of the relatively safe places.
Meanwhile, Yang Wudi, along with all the elders, watched the carriage convoy depart from their room, their gazes solemn yet tinged with a hint of relief. Everyone seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, after all, those leaving were their own nephews and younger generations.
After the convoy had completely disappeared, Yang Wudi turned to the elders and said, "Elders, from now on we must be careful to gather information and maintain martial law for our clan members. Although we don't know what will happen, it's definitely something big. It may even concern the life and death of our Po clan."
As the patriarch of the Po clan and an elder of the outer sect of the Haotian Sect, Yang Wudi possessed extensive experience in handling affairs and was certainly not lacking in methods and decisiveness. At his command, tensions rose within the clan.
Meanwhile, Yang Wudi, carrying the note, arrived at a gathering place. Soon, Titan, the patriarch of the Power Clan, Niu Gao, the patriarch of the Royal Clan, and Bai He, the patriarch of the Agility Clan, all arrived there.
Of course, none of the three seemed surprised after seeing Yang Wudi's note.
Niu Gao spoke directly: "Old Goat, what's wrong with you? Why do you seem so paranoid? And why did you arrange for all the children in the family to go to Tiandou City for a trip?"
Yang Wudi shook his head: "It's nothing, I've just been a little restless lately, and my eldest grandson kept nagging me to go to Tiandou City to play, so I simply arranged for all the children in the family to go on a trip together."
"Oh, old goat, is it my little grandson who wants to go on a trip? I should have gone with him."
At this moment, Bai He spoke up: "You old rhinoceros, with so many things going on in the sect these days, how can you find time to play?"
As the maternal uncle of the two brothers Tang Hao and Tang Xiao, Bai He can be considered the number one maternal relative of the Haotian Sect, and he is currently enjoying immense prestige.
Titan spoke up: "I've been quite busy lately, but I'd really like to go traveling for a while when I have some free time."
Clearly, the patriarchs of the other three clans had also received similar messages, but none of them seemed to care. Yang Wudi also shook his head, hoping that he was just overthinking things.
