Oscar diligently made sausages, clocking in for work every day. After finishing his shift, the first thing he did was go home to see his child.
This was the continuation of his life…
It was also the only solace in Oscar's heart after he had completely despaired of this world.
On the way, Oscar excitedly bought a rattle.
However, when he returned home.
As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he heard the cry of a baby. Tang San was holding the child, his eyes cold as he looked at Oscar.
Clack.
The rattle in Oscar's hand fell to the ground, making a series of clear sounds.
"X-Xiao San?"
"Xiao San, don't do anything rash!"
At this moment, the aura emanating from Tang San felt very dangerous, and the baby in his arms was crying hysterically.
Oscar fell to his knees with a thud.
"Xiao San, for the sake of our many years as classmates, let's talk this through properly."
Tang San narrowed his eyes.
Compared to Yu Tianheng, who had lost his entire family and had completely given up, Oscar undoubtedly had a weakness, even a fatal one.
If he could control Oscar's child, he could easily threaten him.
"Tell me, what happened to Mubai and Grandmaster?"
Oscar answered without hesitation.
"Mubai is most likely dead. Dai Weisi killed him."
"Grandmaster has been taken away by people from Spirit Hall."
Tang San was greatly relieved to hear that Yu Xiaogang had been taken away by people from Spirit Hall, but he immediately became furious as he looked at Oscar.
"Oscar, Dai Weisi killed Dai Mubai, and you and Yu Tianheng have the nerve to defect to Dai Weisi? Are you even human for doing this?"
Oscar looked at Tang San in surprise.
He hadn't expected the other party to say such a thing.
What, Dai Mubai is dead, so he and Yu Tianheng should die too?
Why don't you say how you're living it up out there and haven't bothered to save us? Grandmaster also left with the people from Spirit Hall without looking back.
However, because his child was still in Tang San's hands, Oscar didn't dare to provoke him.
"Xiao San, it's my fault. I should die, but the child is innocent!"
"Calm down, put the child down..."
Tang San said coldly:
"You know fear now?"
"When you betrayed Shrek and defected to Dai Weisi, why didn't you think you were wrong?"
"Oscar, you're living a comfortable life, with a wife and child, enjoying wealth and prosperity. You've had it all."
Oscar's face was streaming with tears.
"Xiao San, don't say that."
"We have no other choice. Are you forcing us to die?"
Tang San shouted:
"Defecting to Dai Weisi, shouldn't you die?"
Oscar looked at Tang San and gave a tragic smile.
"Fine, I understand. You just want me to die, don't you?"
"After I die, let my child go."
With that said.
Oscar gathered all his strength and violently slammed his head against the wall.
With a loud bang, blood flowed from his head.
But he still wasn't dead.
Oscar fell to the ground. After regaining his senses, he took a few steps back and prepared to do the same thing again.
Tang San snorted coldly:
"Forget it!"
"I'll let you off this time!"
"But you need to help me with something."
Oscar looked up blankly.
"What is it?"
A flash of ferocity crossed Tang San's face before vanishing.
Gritting his teeth, he resentfully said:
"I need you to help me create an opportunity to get close to Dai Weisi."
"I want Dai Weisi dead!!!"
Oscar hesitated for a moment.
To be fair, he had initially been Dai Weisi's captive, but the other party treated him quite well. Although Oscar knew these were just methods to control him, Dai Weisi genuinely offered benefits!
Tang San said coldly:
"You've betrayed me!"
Oscar was startled and hurriedly said:
"I promise! I promise!"
His gaze remained fixed on the child in Tang San's arms, eagerly hoping Tang San would put the child down.
However, Tang San said:
"After this is done, I will help you take care of your child and send him to a peasant family."
Oscar understood Tang San's hidden meaning.
This time, he was being sent as cannon fodder.
Whether the assassination of Dai Weisi succeeded or not, he would die unjustly.
Oscar had already accepted his fate.
What he hated most in his life was being merely a support-type Soul Master. If he had possessed great power, why would he allow himself to be slaughtered like this?
Even his own child was implicated.
...
Dai Weisi had been smooth sailing lately, but a major concern weighed him down, leaving him melancholic and utterly dejected.
"Doctor, are you absolutely sure you haven't found any abnormalities in my body?"
The doctor shook his head firmly.
"No, I even feel that Crown Prince's body is robust and full of vigor."
Dai Weisi's heart sank by more than half.
"Another quack!"
His… thing was practically useless, yet this doctor was here proclaiming his health and vigor. Could this doctor even cure illnesses?
However, precisely because of this ignorance, the doctor was fortunate enough to escape with his life.
Dai Weisi's expression was somewhat wistful.
Having a beautiful wife at home but not daring to touch her; if he were to become an eunuch, what use would even the entire empire be?
Lately, he had become increasingly indifferent to Zhu Zhuyun, even deliberately avoiding her. Zhu Zhuyun also paid him little mind...
Sigh.
What wrong had Zhu Zhuyun done?
It was all his fault.
No, it was all that damned Tang San's fault!
It was that poison Tang San inflicted on him last time that caused this lingering ailment!
"Tang San, if I get the chance, I will surely kill you!"
Just then.
A subordinate reported to Dai Weisi:
"Your Highness the First Prince, Viscount Oscar is here to see you. He says he has something of extreme importance to discuss with Your Highness."
Dai Weisi found it strange.
Oscar had always harbored resistance towards him. Even when working under him, it was only the child that kept him in line.
When had he become so proactive?
"Let him in."
A moment later, Oscar walked in from outside the room and said to Dai Weisi:
"Your Highness the First Prince, I have found Tang San's whereabouts!"
Dai Weisi was overjoyed.
For the past year, he had hated Tang San to the bone.
He wished he could tear into its flesh with his bare hands!
Oscar spoke calmly, weaving a tale that Tang San had recently contacted him, saying he wanted to meet up with him and Yu Xiaogang to leave, but that he had refused.
Dai Weisi gave Oscar an appreciative look and chuckled, "Viscount Oscar, you now have status, a family, and children. You're no longer as naive as you once were."
"You've done very well. If you can lure that Tang San out, I'll consider it a great service!"
Oscar thanked him profusely and left.
Meanwhile, a thoughtful expression crossed Dai Weisi's face.
Is Oscar truly trustworthy?
Just then, someone arrived to report that Yu Tianheng had disappeared, and all the servants in his residence had met a violent end.
Dai Weisi became even more cautious
