Chapter 19: Yu Xiaogang's Fury! Tang San in His Hands! My Father Loves Me! Meeting Emperor Xue
Liu Erlong's chest heaved violently as well.
It was clearly this old poisoner who kidnapped the mistress without even asking what happened.
Now they're being asked to do manual labor as an apology? What kind of logic is that?
She has a fiery temper that's easily ignited, so how could she tolerate being bullied like this?
He immediately took a step forward—
"Yes, yes, no problem!"
"Rest assured, senior, I guarantee I'll restore this place to its original state!"
Flanders knew his two old buddies' temperaments all too well.
Before the two could speak, they preemptively spoke.
He nodded and bowed, readily agreeing.
Seeing that the other party was so sensible, Dugu Bo snorted coldly and turned to disappear into the morning mist.
"Flander, how can you be so spineless? You're just a Title Douluo, the worst that can happen is you die!"
Yu Xiaogang, who had been holding back his anger for a long time, finally let it out and berated Flander.
Flander's face turned pale and then red from the shock of those words.
"Oh well, never mind."
"Xiao Gang, calm down. Boss Fu just doesn't want to start a fight..."
Liu Erlong, on the contrary, defended Flander and patted Xiao Gang on the shoulder.
Although she has a bad temper, she is not an ungrateful person.
A direct confrontation like that wouldn't have benefited them at all.
Flander's expression softened somewhat. He turned his gaze to Tang San.
His expression turned serious.
To project the authority of the dean:
"I don't care how you offended that Senior Dugu."
"But...one must take responsibility for one's own actions."
"This valley is now in your hands to restore to its original state!"
"Rest assured, Shrek Academy's motto is 'Never abandon us!'"
"We'll be here watching over you!"
Flanders said seriously.
Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong frowned.
But then I thought, if Tang San doesn't do it, then it's the three of them's turn to do it.
In this way...
Then the mistress will have to suffer!
Tang San opened his mouth wide, as if trying to explain something.
But after catching a glimpse of Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong's silent expressions out of the corner of his eye,
He then knew there was no room for negotiation.
He gritted his teeth.
He swallowed all his grievances and resentment.
"Yes, Dean!"
With the toxic smog gone, the first rays of morning sunlight shone down.
The entire valley unfolds before your eyes—
Beautiful!
On the mountaintop,
Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong sat side by side, enjoying the sunrise, the orange-gold light reflecting on their profiles.
At the mountainside,
Flanders pulled out a chair from somewhere, crossed his legs, and leisurely basked in the sun.
Only the bottom of the valley,
A small, black figure was laboriously pushing dirt, filling one hole after another.
Covered in dust and dirt,
Sweating profusely,
He looks just like a dung beetle pushing a dung ball!
"My magic herb!"
"Damn it!"
"Dugu Bo, you old scoundrel! I will never forgive you!"
Tang San gripped the shovel tightly, his hatred for Dugu Bo soaring to the heavens.
"wrong--"
"How can I let my emotions control me?"
"Tang Clan Ancestral Precept No. 93: No matter what the situation, you must remain absolutely calm."
"Calm down, calm down."
"It seems I've been having too much success lately, which has made me complacent."
"Yes, yes, Dad must have noticed the changes in me and arranged this test on purpose!"
"Stealing the immortal herb is a test, leaving me alone to face Dugu Bo is also a test!"
"Having me fill in the holes here is a true test of my mental fortitude!"
"Dad loves me!"
Thinking of this, Tang San felt a pang of guilt; he had misunderstood his father again.
Then this guilt transformed into nuclear power!
"Dad, don't worry, I will definitely live up to your expectations!"
……
Around noon.
Qian Renxue and her group strolled leisurely into Tiandou City.
They were greeted by
It is Princess Xueke and Prince Xuexing.
As for the Sixth Prince Xue Beng, he's long since disappeared off drinking and carousing somewhere.
"Brother! You're finally back! You have no idea how worried I've been about you all this time!"
As soon as I got off the carriage,
A soft, fragrant figure bumped into Qian Renxue's arms.
It was Princess Xue Ke of the Heavenly Dou Empire, her only younger sister.
"She's so grown up, yet still so unruly; she doesn't act like a princess at all!"
Qian Renxue looked down at the fluffy little head, her gaze softening involuntarily.
"If Father finds out, he'll definitely lecture you again!"
She raised her hand and gently rubbed Xue Ke's head, her tone filled with the same doting affection as always.
"As long as my elder brother doesn't tell Father, let's see who dares to tattle!"
Xueke lifted her face from her embrace, put her hands on her hips, and swept her almond-shaped eyes around threateningly.
Prince Xuexing, who was walking over from not far away, was innocently caught in the gaze.
His face stiffened slightly.
But he couldn't be bothered to argue with a little girl.
Prince Xuexing shook his robes.
He stepped forward, glanced at Qian Renxue, and said with a smile:
"Judging from the Crown Prince's good complexion, it seems that his condition has greatly improved. This is truly a cause for celebration."
"His Majesty has been waiting in the palace for quite some time. Let's hurry inside!"
"Uncle's words make sense!"
Qian Renxue nodded.
"While I was away from the country, I relied entirely on my uncle to share the burden with my father. He has truly worked hard!"
"Your Highness is too kind. This is simply the duty of a subject."
Prince Xuexing laughed.
"From now on, Your Highness will have to work hard again!"
The two men exchanged cryptic remarks and forced smiles as they walked into the palace.
In the study,
On a snowy night, the Emperor was reviewing memorials at his desk, his brows furrowed into a deep frown.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince and the Prince have arrived!"
Upon hearing the eunuch's report that the Crown Prince and Prince Xuexing had arrived,
He immediately put down his vermilion brush, and even the wrinkles between his brows relaxed a little.
"Your Majesty, your son/brother pays his respects!"
"There are no outsiders here, no need for formalities!"
Emperor Xueye raised his hand to dismiss the two from formalities, and then turned his gaze to Xue Qinghe.
"Have you been able to locate the source of your headache?"
Xue Qinghe suffered from headaches from time to time, and despite consulting many doctors and soul masters, the root cause of his illness could not be found.
This time, the attack was even more aggressive, which is why they had no choice but to travel a long way to the Spirit Hall to try their luck.
"Thank you for your concern, Father Emperor!"
Qian Renxue had already prepared her answer and replied calmly.
"His Holiness the Pope has personally diagnosed that my physical condition has failed to keep pace with my cultivation growth."
This also affected the martial spirit.
The headache was triggered by the adverse effects on the physical body and the increased mental burden.
His Holiness the Pope has taken great care of him; from now on, he only needs to improve his physical condition to prevent a recurrence.
This storyline was carefully crafted by her.
When it comes to matters involving martial spirits and souls, very few people on the entire continent can explain them clearly, let alone find fault with them.
As expected, Emperor Xueye frowned at first, but breathed a long sigh of relief after hearing that there was a solution.
"Alright, alright, since that's the case, you should focus more on your cultivation from now on!"
He paused, his tone now tinged with emotion:
"The Pope of the Spirit Hall is indeed unfathomable. What my Heaven Dou Empire couldn't handle was easily resolved!"
"By the way, I've also heard about the strange phenomena in Wuhun City a few days ago!"
He changed the subject, his gaze sweeping over Qian Renxue and Prince Xuexing.
"You must all keep your subordinates in check and prevent any conflict with the Spirit Hall!"
Such a big thing can't be kept secret.
The secret report was placed in the hands of the leaders of various forces well in advance.
Just before,
Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, had also discussed the matter with him, and both sides agreed to remain unchanged in the face of all changes.
Upon hearing this,
Qian Renxue and Prince Xuexing both frowned slightly, then nodded solemnly.
The three of them chatted about recent events.
Just as Qian Renxue was about to take her leave, Emperor Xueye asked a question seemingly casually.
"By the way, that Poison Douluo brought his granddaughter to your residence this morning, I wonder what his purpose was..."
