Liam said awkwardly:
"About that, Senior, I was just joking with them."
Xie Yue and Yan also nodded heavily. Although we also want to learn from Liam, but! We are learning to make more girlfriends and rely on rich women, we didn't say we wanted to eat old cows!
That Teacher also shook his head and sighed:
"Young people don't know how good Aunts are, mistakenly treating young girls as treasures. Young people don't know the fragrance of soft rice, mistakenly treating youth as inverted seedlings. Looking back for an Aunt again, but the Aunt has long since run away. Aunt is good, Aunt is fragrant, Aunt is a ray of light in the darkness, as long as you grasp the Aunt, move into a large villa overnight!"
Cough, cough, cough—!
Liam and the two others were already strategically drinking water, and now they were directly choked badly.
"Liam."
Hu Liena walked over at this moment, took out a handkerchief to wipe the water stains from Liam's mouth, and said:
"Why are you sitting in this corner? Come sit with me in the front."
Liam nodded slightly, stood up, patted Xie Yue and the other person's shoulders, and then took Hu Liena to sit at the main seat.
Everyone chatted in twos and threes.
This made Liam a little bored. It would be better to sit next to Xie Yue and Yan and continue to brag with them.
Bah!
These two guys aren't going to take a shortcut, are they?
After finishing the meal, it was already afternoon. Liam and Hu Liena's group returned to Spirit Hall again to arrange the enrollment matters for Ye Lingling and the others.
What surprised Liam was that Shui Binger and her group also took this opportunity to arrange a status as auditing students. They were preparing to set up shop in Spirit City!
This busyness lasted until evening.
Heaven Dou City.
Outside the North Gate of the Imperial Palace.
Tang Hao, Tang San, Flander, and Yu Xiaogang were quietly waiting for "Xue Qinghe's" people to receive them.
Tang San looked at Tang Hao, his face solemn, and said:
"Dad, you and Teacher can just wait for me outside. Next, I'll go in, get the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, and then we'll leave Heaven Dou City together."
Tang Hao said with some hesitation:
"Xiao San, let Dad accompany you in!"
Tang San shook his head and said:
"Dad, your strength hasn't recovered yet, and you can't use Soul Power, so it's safer for me to go in alone."
"With my movement technique, I can actually enter and exit this Imperial Palace easily."
Tang Hao nodded slightly and said:
"Then be careful. If there's any accident, remember to retreat first and don't be aggressive."
"Okay!"
While the few people were talking, a sneaky figure walked out of the Imperial Palace. This was the person Qian Renxue arranged to meet with Tang San.
In the darkness in the distance.
Qian Renxue, Snake Spear Douluo, and Porcupinefish Douluo watched quietly. After discovering that only Tang San had entered the Imperial Palace, Snake Spear Douluo said with some doubt:
"Strange!"
"That guy Tang Hao isn't going in, he's actually letting his son go in alone?"
Porcupinefish Douluo was also very puzzled.
Qian Renxue chuckled softly:
"Didn't I say today that Tang Hao was seriously injured? His current situation is probably not as good as Tang San's."
Snake Spear Douluo and the other person were also surprised and said:
"Tang Hao is actually injured so badly?"
"There are not many people in the world today who can severely injure Tang Hao to this extent. Qian Renxue, do you know who severely injured Tang Hao?"
Qian Renxue said faintly:
"Yes, Nana sent a letter from Soto City a few days ago. Tang Hao's injuries were caused by them."
"Let's wait and watch the show!"
Speaking of which.
Tang San followed the inside contact and sneaked into the Imperial Palace, avoiding a crowd of patrolling guards. When he reached the vicinity of the national treasury, the inside contact said:
"The treasure vault where the things are placed is ahead. You can go in by yourself, get the item, and come back to find me. I'll take you out of the Imperial Palace."
"Thank you!"
After Tang San thanked him, he used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and disappeared into the night.
The inside contact quietly followed behind. After confirming that Tang San had entered the treasure vault, he took a deep breath and shouted loudly:
"Catch the thief—!"
Thump, thump, thump~!
Thump, thump, thump~!
For a time, whole squads of royal guards ran out of the Imperial Palace and directly surrounded the entire area around the treasure vault, making it impenetrable.
Inside the treasure vault.
Tang San had just entered and hadn't found where the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud was yet when he heard someone outside shouting 'catch the thief' and the sound of large groups of people's footsteps.
Holy crap.
Tang San was also quite annoyed.
I'm really impressed by you, you old sixth.
However!
He had already entered the treasure vault, how could he be willing to return empty-handed?
So he started searching anxiously inside, but he couldn't find it! He simply couldn't find where the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud was!
Qian Renxue: I didn't put it back at all.
Bang—!
At this moment, the large door was kicked open by a guard, and a group of people swarmed in. Tang San was also greatly shocked and quickly went all out, using his external Soul Bone to attack and releasing various Hidden Weapons.
After unleashing a wave of attacks, Tang San immediately used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and began to dodge left and right, rushing out of the treasure vault.
It has to be said that this little friend Tang San still had some skills. Using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track in the dark, he was like a night cat, and in a few moves, he had darted onto the rooftop.
If they hadn't been prepared early, with his Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and protagonist's halo, he might really have been able to slip away.
Just as Tang San was feeling happy, thinking that he could escape the pursuit from the rooftop under the cover of night before any high-level Soul Masters arrived.
Bang!
Only a loud noise was heard in the sky.
Tang San was slapped down from the rooftop by someone.
"Hmph!"
"What nerve, daring to steal from the national treasury."
The person who came had terrifying Soul Power, wore a green robe, and was a Titled Douluo expert—wasn't this the old guy Titled Douluo Dugu Bo?
Tang San was knocked down from the rooftop by Dugu Bo and felt severe pain in his internal organs. When he wanted to get up again, several long spears were already pressed against his neck.
Damn it!
Xue Qinghe, you have already courted death.
So.
Tang San, it was he who had courted death. How did Qian Renxue arrange it?
Qian Renxue's first wave of arrangements was to kill with a borrowed knife, which meant she inadvertently leaked this matter into the ears of Prince Xue Xing.
How could Prince Xue Xing allow this?
He supported Xue Beng, and he would undoubtedly destroy anything that the Crown Prince "Xue Qinghe" wanted to do, let alone colluding to steal the national treasure Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
Thus, Prince Xue Xing immediately found Dugu Bo and asked him to stake out Tang San in the Imperial Palace.
Secondly.
Qian Renxue also prepared her own people. If Prince Xue Xing's people didn't make a move, then she would let her own people act.
So Tang San could not escape no matter what; he was facing a double trap.
Of course.
This cannot be said to be Tang San being stupid.
Firstly, Tang San was eager to get the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, and secondly, Tang San and the others simply could not think of a reason for Xue Qinghe to plot against them.
After all, their father and son came from the Haotian Sect, and Tang Yuehua personally introduced them. Even if Xue Qinghe was unwilling to give the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, there was no need to plot against them and cause the Heaven Dou Empire to fall out with the Haotian Sect, right?
From a normal perspective, this is true.
But!
This was not the real Xue Qinghe; they were looking for their arch-nemesis, Qian Renxue. Qian Renxue couldn't wait to see the Heaven Dou Empire and the Haotian Sect fall out.
Outside the Imperial Palace.
Tang Hao and the other two who were waiting to receive Tang San also discovered the commotion inside the Imperial Palace immediately.
"Damn it!"
"Xiao San has been discovered."
Tang Hao said this and was about to rush into the Imperial Palace to save him.
Flander also quickly stopped him, grabbed Tang Hao, and said, "Haotian Douluo, calm down!"
"Now the Imperial Palace is heavily guarded. Let alone that you are seriously injured now, even if you were at your peak, it would be difficult to rescue Xiao San. Let's leave first and discuss it again."
