. Little Tuantuan brought the two little ones to the clothing store under the Qibao Chamber of Commerce. They were immediately greeted by a salesperson dressed in fancy clothes. After all, Little Tuantuan's tiger ears and tiger tail were famous in Notting City, and the salesperson sensed that a big business was coming their way today.
"Miss Tuanzi, are you free to come to our Qibao Clothing Store today? Are you bringing these two little girls to buy some laundry? It just so happens that our Qibao Chamber of Commerce has the best and most comprehensive selection, and we also offer custom-made services."
Tang San looked down at his clothes. He wasn't wearing the wrong clothes; they were men's. How could someone have mistaken him for the wrong gender? He could only explain in a babyish voice,
"Salesperson, I'm a boy. I need a few sets of men's clothes that fit me. Do you sell fabric here? I'd like to buy some too."
Tang San planned to buy a few sets of men's clothes first, as an emergency measure, and then a few batches of fabric as a backup. In case his wardrobe was replaced again, he'd have nothing to wear. Tang San didn't want to wear women's clothes. He'd grown quite feminine now, and women's clothing was a complete no-no. As a child, he hadn't been able to resist the humiliation of wearing a little skirt. Even now, Tang San hadn't found the photo album in Teacher Yu Xiaogang's study.
The saleswoman looked a bit surprised. She calmly surveyed Tang San's attire and appearance, wondering how such a cute and pretty girl could possibly be a boy. She quickly dismissed the idea as some strange fetish for a young lady from the Longmen Sect. Then, with a smile, she said to Tang San,
"So, what kind of men's clothing does this young master need? Backed by the Qibao Chamber of Commerce, our shop boasts the widest selection on Douluo Continent, from ordinary fabrics to custom-made garments crafted from spirit beast furs! Please follow me!"
Tang San found the term "young master" odd, and Yu Linglong tried hard to suppress a laugh. He quickly selected several sets of men's clothing and several batches of fabric. After swiping their credit cards, the saleswoman escorted them out of the Qibao Clothing Store. Tang San was inwardly astonished at the expense of over three hundred gold soul coins for just a few sets of clothing and fabric.
The men's clothing was indeed made of fine materials, likely made from spirit beast fur. It was breathable, warm, and incredibly soft. Xiao Tuantuan, with her Gold and VIP cards, led the way for food and drinks. Tang San, despite his junior sister Yu Linglong's whining, accompanied her to see the children's animated film Minions.
The group took the spirit-guided cable car to the Notting City children's amusement park. At first, Tang San, still reserved about being an adult, was reluctant to play with the kids. But Xiao Tuantuan saw the curiosity in Tang San's eyes, and he kept glancing at Yu Linglong to see her having fun. She couldn't help but say,
"Xiao San, come out for once, go play freely! Don't act like an adult all day! Go! Look how happy the little master is having!"
Yu Linglong had just gotten off the bumper cars and grabbed Tang San's hand, heading straight for the carousel. She excitedly said to Tang San,
"Don't just sit there in a daze! Come on, Senior Sister will take you all over the amusement park today!"
Tang San smiled wryly and could only let Yu Linglong lead him away. Xiao Tuantuan waved at them and waved her milk tea, indicating that they had a great time and she was waiting.
Soon, Tang San was infected by Yu Linglong's cheerful laughter and gradually immersed in it. He too had a happy childhood. The anxieties of his past life began to fade away, and that day felt like the happiest day he had ever had.
After letting loose, Tang San and Yu Linglong played all over the children's park. In the end, the two little ones fell asleep from exhaustion. Xiao Tuantuan, one in each arm, shoved them into the back seat of the long-prepared spirit guide SUV. Her mission for the day was complete, and now it was time to return to the Longmen Sect. Tang San felt like he had slept the most peaceful sleep he'd ever had. He felt free from the oppression of the Tang Sect, free from the bullying and ridicule of the inner disciples. He was completely free from the Tang Sect, a training ground for cruel killers.
The next day, Tang San woke up in his small room and stared blankly at his cartoon-style pajamas. Turning around, he saw the neatly stacked men's clothing and fabrics, and he breathed a sigh of relief. At least the things he'd bought yesterday, when he'd let his guard down, hadn't been replaced with women's clothing. Tang San got up and changed out of his pink cartoon pajamas. He knew without hesitation that they were Aunt Liu Erlong's creation. He knew that Aunt Erlong, despite her outwardly impulsive demeanor, secretly relished this childish charm.
Tang San finished dressing and went to wash up. Standing at the sink, he stared at his incredibly beautiful face in the mirror. Those large, blue-gold eyes revealed a resolute determination. Now that he had decided to start a new life, he had to face himself head-on. No matter how beautiful he looked on the outside, he would still be
himself! He would uphold his integrity and maintain his bottom line! Getting used to his appearance began today! After packing up, Tang San enjoyed a hearty breakfast at the Longmen Sect. As usual, the waitress gave him a generous portion. Tang San felt that his good looks were often favored; disciples from other sects didn't receive such privileges.
Today, Tang San planned to practice his mind skills. After all, he had been practicing the Xuantian Gong for a long time, stuck at the first level, unable to break through. He also envied his junior sister's omnipotent telekinesis. He thought of using it to control hidden weapon attacks, making them even more difficult to defend against.
Tang San wanted to go through the training process again. He wanted to prove himself to his teacher, Yu Xiaogang! Tang San must be different. He would inherit all of Yu Xiaogang's skills and carry the Longmen Sect forward! Tang San had completely considered the Longmen Sect his home. Tang Sect? That heartless sect could get lost!
Tang San had lived in the Longmen Sect for many years and felt it was the perfect place for him. His parents doted on him, his teachers taught him theoretical knowledge, and he had quirky little sisters to practice with him—all things the Tang Sect could never offer. Tang San
finally came to his senses. The elder in charge of the Sutra Repository had ulterior motives. He must have taken advantage of his loyalty to the Tang Sect, his talent for cultivation, and his own clever moves. If he hadn't had any of that, Tang San would have died that day. If his success had been discovered, every Tang Sect elder who came to his rescue would have been ready to kill him!
After a while, Tang San arrived at the Longmen Sect's main square. Looking at the Heart Training Path with only a hundred steps in front of him, the sect disciples who were exercising nearby squatted down when they saw Tang San coming here, took out a lollipop from the storage soul guide and handed it to Tang San, saying hello:
"It's little Tang San! You got up so diligently, while the young sect leader is still lying in bed! Huh? Little Tang San, you are not going to challenge the Heart Training Path? Isn't it too early for you? The Heart Training Path is not that easy to challenge!"
Tang San subconsciously took the lollipop. Junior Sister should like snacks. He is not a child who likes sweets! He quietly tucked it into his arms and began to inquire of the sect disciples,
"Is the Heart Training Road difficult to conquer? What happens if you enter? Big Brother, have you ever conquered the
Heart Training Road?" The disciple's eyes flickered as he looked at Tang San, his wide blue-gold eyes wide with curiosity. He coughed to cover up,
"The Heart Training Road is an entry test set by our sect master. So far, few have been able to pass it on their first try. Once you step into the Heart Training Road, you enter a realm of obsession and illusion. Being able to see through illusions is very beneficial for improving your spiritual sea. However, the only sect disciple I've seen who has managed to pass it on their first try is Senior Sister Sisi, who took three attempts to do so! Little Tang San, do you want to conquer the Heart Training Road today? It's too dangerous. Your spiritual sea hasn't been opened yet!"
Tang San narrowed his beautiful eyes, flashing a confident smile. He hummed at the disciple who was training, then stepped into the Heart Training Road right in front of the sect disciple, who was stunned by Tang San's adorable appearance.
I wonder what my obsession and illusion is? Family? Tang Sect? Or... Longmen Sect?
