Douluo: The Son of Martial Soul, Deceiving All the Women

Chapter 233 Having a hasty and desperate meal

Oscar immediately looked ashamed and glanced at Dai Mubai with some embarrassment.

"Sorry, Boss Dai, you're a bit late. I talked to Brother Bai a few days ago when he came to see Zhu Zhuqing and the others."

"Brother Bai has already agreed to use his cultivation technique as payment in exchange for me joining the Spirit Hall, so I can't go to Star Luo with you, Boss Dai."

Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai's lips twitched, and he gave Oscar a deep look.

That bastard, does he think he doesn't know? It's true that he talked to Bai Yu back then, but it was just Oscar jokingly asking Bai Yu if he could learn his techniques if he joined the Spirit Hall, and Bai Yu casually agreed.

It's fair to say that neither of them took it seriously, since they'd joked like that all the time before.

But now that Oscar has refused for this reason, it means that this guy doesn't want to go to Xingluo with him at all, and doesn't think he can inherit the throne.

As for joining the Spirit Hall? It's just a shield; whether they'll actually join is still uncertain.

"Since that's the case, then forget it. Come on, have a drink. I wish you all the best in the future, Xiao Ao. If you make it big, don't forget to give your brother a hand."

"Of course! If that day ever comes, brother, I will never forget!"

While the two were drinking, everyone else was chatting idly, seemingly paying no attention to their conversation.

Only that little idiot Tyrone looked at the two of them with disdain, thinking to himself:
"Fake! So damn fake! They won't go with you now, and even if they become successful in the future, will they even remember who you are?"

"Tsk, none of these people at the table are smart. They can't even see such an obvious excuse. Sigh, everyone else is drunk but I'm the only one who's sober!"

Just as Tailong was feeling sentimental, Tang San, who was sitting next to him, suddenly looked up and said with a smile:

"Boss Dai, that's not fair of you! You're just sending Xiao Ao along to get promoted and make a fortune, while you're ignoring the other brothers?"

Dai Mubai paused, turned to look at Tang San, his eyes filled with uncertainty.

He was unsure what Tang San meant by those words. Did Tang San genuinely want to go to Xingluo with him and help him out, or did he want to use his status as a prince for some other purpose?

However, since Tang San wanted to go, he wouldn't refuse, since his current strength was far too weak.

He even lost his wife's family, the Zhu family. If he doesn't win over some external forces, how can he compete with Davis?
"How could that be? If Tang San wants to go to Star Luo with me, I will definitely treat him with great courtesy. I didn't invite him out loud just because I was afraid you would look down on my little temple."

Tang San laughed loudly, picked up his wine cup, and drank it all in one gulp to Dai Mubai.

"Haha, good, Boss Dai is so generous. In that case, Tang San will accompany Boss Dai on a trip to Xingluo."

"Young Master... Tang San, what's wrong with you?"

Before Dai Mubai could say anything, Tang San had barely finished speaking when Tai Long became anxious, tugged at Tang San's sleeve, and looked very puzzled.

Tailong was somewhat aware of the messy affairs of the Star Luo royal family. In his opinion, Dai Mubai's foundation in Star Luo was too shallow, and he had little chance of winning.

Tang San, as the son of Haotian Douluo and possessing twin martial souls, has a limitless future. Why should he get involved in this mess?
Tang San did not explain Tai Long's doubts, but simply shook his head at him, indicating that he did not need to say anything more.

To be honest, Tang San didn't want to get involved with Dai Mubai, but he was forced into this situation and had no other choice.

Because he had nowhere to go; his dear father had disappeared for two years without a trace, and they couldn't find him anywhere.

Staying in academies or similar places wouldn't significantly improve his strength and wouldn't be of much use. As for the Spirit Hall, that's out of the question. That damned Bai Yu might not care about his status as the son of the Haotian Douluo, but that doesn't mean others don't.

If he stays in the Spirit Hall, and people find out one day that he is Tang Hao's son, he might be secretly buried deeper into the shadows.

Therefore, he had no choice but to follow Dai Mubai to Xingluo and then take advantage of the situation to find the Haotian Sect.

According to his father, he had a good relationship with his uncle, and as long as he found the Haotian Sect, he could use that relationship to gain the sect's support.

At that time, there will be hope for both increasing strength and planning revenge against Bai Yu and the Spirit Hall.

Seeing that Tang San was determined to go to Xingluo with Dai Mubai, Tailong gritted his teeth and said with a forced smile:

"Since you're going with the captain, I'll come along too. It'll be good to have company."

Tailong had no choice. He didn't want to go to Xingluo, a place he knew nothing about, but his grandfather had given him a strict order to stay by Tang San's side and protect him.

So even if he didn't want to, he had no choice but to go along with it.

Tang San nodded. He was more than willing to go with Tai Long, as having a subordinate would make things easier.

Of course, if danger arises, they can be used as scapegoats or consumables, just as the Haotian Sect did back then.

In order to quell the Spirit Hall's anger, he decided to abandon the four major families and let the Spirit Hall kill them at his disposal. He felt that there was nothing wrong with replicating their identities.

Seeing that both of them were willing to go to Xingluo with him, Dai Mubai grinned.

Although both of them are unstable factors for him, given his current situation, he can't worry about them anymore.

Even if Tang San had some ulterior motives, since she went back with him, she was destined to be part of the Third Prince's faction, and there was no way to escape it.

"Haha, since you and Brother Tailong are both coming to Xingluo with me, I naturally welcome you. When the three of us brothers join hands, we will surely achieve our goals!"

After everyone finished discussing where they were going, the atmosphere became even more harmonious, as if the previous scheming and infighting had disappeared.

Just as the banquet was about to end, Tang San's eyes flashed, and he uttered a sentence.

"Now that we've come in second place, we've finally got the three soul bones that the Spirit Hall rewarded us with."

"I just don't know what attributes those three soul bones have, and whether they are suitable for Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ning Rongrong."

"If it's appropriate, with the contributions of the three of you, you are definitely the best candidates to use the Soul Bone."

As soon as Tang San finished speaking, everyone stopped their toasting and drinking, their eyes revealing a strange light.

Soul bones are a good thing, and everyone wants them, but Tang San is right. Zhu Zhuqing and the other two are undoubtedly the best candidates, both in terms of their contributions in the competition and their backgrounds.

Therefore, even if they have opinions, they can only keep them to themselves and dare not speak them out.

Like everyone else, Zhu Zhuqing and her two companions paused, then exchanged glances, their eyes flashing with mockery.

At this moment, both Flander and Yu Xiaogang noticed that the atmosphere at the table was not quite right, but Yu Xiaogang continued to drink and eat, completely unconcerned.

After all, no matter who gets the soul bone, he won't give it to him, so why should he care?
