Tang Ao then tentatively said,
"Brother Tang Fei, were you alright last night?"
Tang San was stunned for a moment. Of course, he wasn't alright. He had taken over Tang Fei's identity, and the previous Tang Fei was already dead. After a moment of thought, he explained,
"Brother Tang Ao, I encountered a powerful Soul Master from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect yesterday who injured me. Fortunately, I had excellent medicine and saved myself."
Of course, he couldn't reveal the true facts; he could only tell a lie that sounded most like the truth.
Tang Ao frowned slightly and remained silent for a long time, clearly pondering something.
Afterward, he asked,
"Did Sister Luo Baiwei come yesterday?"
Tang San was startled. Who was Luo Baiwei? He had no idea.
So, he said,
"No, she didn't."
Tang Ao's expression changed, and then he said,
"Since you escaped this time, let's forget about it. How about you don't try to snatch Luo Baiwei from me, this woman?"
Tang San's face showed confusion. He had chosen Tang Fei's identity precisely because Tang Fei seemed to be the most inconspicuous one.
For him, having no trouble was the best thing. Moreover, Tang Ao was the leader of this team, and the best way to avoid revealing his identity was not to conflict with anyone in the team.
So, he said,
"Don't worry, since she is Brother Tang Ao's woman, I naturally wouldn't lay a finger on her. Brother Tang Ao, rest assured!"
Tang Ao's face showed surprise, then he excitedly said,
"Brother Tang Fei, I truly think highly of you. Don't worry, no one in the team will bully you from now on."
Tang San hesitated for a moment. He hadn't expected Tang Fei to be bullied in the team. He only liked to hide himself and didn't like being bullied. He agreed with this situation, so he said,
"Alright, Brother Tang Ao, thank you."
Tang Ao nodded, then said,
"Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first. You can also go out and wander around; the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is still very prosperous."
Tang San said with a smile,
"Brother Tang Ao, I understand."
Tang Ao then left. Watching Tang Ao depart, Tang San's face showed confusion. What this guy said was inexplicable, and he couldn't understand what the other party wanted to do!
Under these circumstances, he returned to his room.
...
Somewhere in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Ning Rongrong and Zhuge Lan were entertaining a small Sect called the Wolf Fang Sect.
At this moment, an Elder ran over, panting, and directly spoke to Miss Rongrong,
"Miss Rongrong, there's something important."
Miss Rongrong was startled, then said,
"What is it?"
Zhuge Lan waited by the side. The relationship between the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and various Sects was too good. The Soul Master Competition attracted countless Soul Masters; there were truly many!
Even he was getting a headache from a series of tedious tasks.
Now, they were entertaining this Sect, and soon they would entertain another. Although there was no danger, it was truly a bit monotonous.
After all, many people might only meet once in this lifetime and never see each other again afterward.
Under such circumstances, being particularly serious about entertaining felt unnecessary, but Miss Rongrong was quite serious.
He also admired her for this point.
The Elder immediately said,
"Sect Master Ning is drinking with the Elder of the Clear Sky Sect. The Spirit Hall team has no one to entertain them; you need to go and entertain them."
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Lan's face showed a hint of anger. Damn it! Spirit Hall still had the nerve to participate in the Soul Master Competition, especially after recently besieging the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
He had no goodwill towards Spirit Hall whatsoever. Faced with this situation, he directly said,
"Don't bother with them. Let them find a place to stay on their own."
Miss Rongrong frowned slightly, then slowly said,
"Zhuge Lan, you can't do that. Although we are enemies with Spirit Hall, enemies also need to be respected. Only then can our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect account for it to everyone in the world."
The Elder also agreed, saying,
"Zhuge Lan, that's right. Spirit Hall is a huge behemoth after all. Even if they are enemies, they must be given a certain level of respect."
Zhuge Lan didn't understand. Spirit Hall had almost attacked the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect before, and now the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was inviting Spirit Hall back for a competition.
This made him unhappy, especially since he had just defeated Spirit Hall's siege of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Coupled with the deep-seated hatred between them and Spirit Hall, he was extremely dissatisfied with Spirit Hall.
He directly said,
"No, I don't agree. Enemies are enemies. Why bother trying to become friends again?"
Miss Rongrong sighed, then said,
"Brother Zhuge, I understand your feelings, but too many Sects are watching us now. If we don't let Spirit Hall participate, those Sects will follow suit and leave."
The Elder also said,
"That's right! The leader of Spirit Hall's team this time is a very powerful Title Douluo. If we don't treat them well, something might happen."
Miss Rongrong nodded, then said,
"Alright, I'll get ready and go over there."
Zhuge Lan frowned. His enmity with Spirit Hall was an open secret. If the Title Douluo leading Spirit Hall were to capture Miss Rongrong to threaten him, it would be troublesome. After much thought, he decided it was better to go with Miss Rongrong, as this would ensure Miss Rongrong's safety.
Under these circumstances, he said,
"Rongrong, I'll go with you. If the Title Douluo from Spirit Hall dares to bully you, I'll bully them back."
Miss Rongrong's eyes lit up, but then a trace of worry appeared on her face.
Her worry was actually reasonable, as Zhuge Lan was completely impolite towards the people of Spirit Hall.
Now that people from various Sects had arrived, if Zhuge Lan were to kill the Title Douluo from Spirit Hall at this moment, it would provoke public outrage, and various problems would arise then.
This would not be good for Zhuge Lan or the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
So, she said,
"Brother Zhuge, I'm worried about one thing: will you kill the Soul Master from Spirit Hall then?"
Zhuge Lan pondered for a moment. He was, after all, an enemy of Spirit Hall, so killing an enemy was certainly possible.
So he said,
"Yes."
Miss Rongrong sighed, then said,
"Then forget it. I'd better go by myself. If you kill a Soul Master from Spirit Hall, then this Soul Master Competition will have a big problem."
Zhuge Lan pondered for a moment. If he were to kill a Title Douluo from Spirit Hall in a fit of anger, with so many Sects present, he knew that too.
Having entertained so many, he also understood that many Sects still admired Spirit Hall.
If Spirit Hall didn't do anything out of line, he truly couldn't kill them.
So he said,
"Rongrong, I understand now. Before this competition, I will not kill the Title Douluo from Spirit Hall."
