Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 254 I only accept Tang San's big one!

After seeing Xue Qinghe off, Gu Yuena suddenly jumped out from the side, climbed onto Tang San's shoulders, and said, "Why did you talk to that girl dressed as a boy for so long?"

"Shh-"

Tang San gestured for Gu Yuena to keep her voice down, since Xue Qinghe hadn't gone far yet. "She is His Highness the Crown Prince; we must maintain the proper respect for her."

"Is that so?" Gu Yuena said dismissively. "But I don't think you're the kind of person who's willing to be subservient to others."

"Therefore, all acts of groveling will come at a price in the future," Tang San said with a deep gaze.

"What price? Will she be ridden by you?" Gu Yuena blinked her big eyes and asked curiously.

Tang San's breath hitched, utterly speechless: "I'm starting to wonder what you've been learning at the Luo Net auction house..."

"A sense of humor, of course!"

Gu Yuena chuckled and looked up to fiddle with Tang San's somewhat peculiar "hair tie".

Even though the nine-section jadeite had grown a tenth scale, each scale bearing the patterns of the sun and moon, becoming a ten-section jadeite, it still dared not resist Gu Yuena's "provocation." It simply wrapped itself quietly around Tang San's hair, afraid that the little witch would pluck it off and eat it like a spicy snack.

"Alright, enough chit-chat, and don't scare Ten Jadeite anymore." Tang San pulled Gu Yuena down from behind and walked into the manor. "Besides in bed, Xiao Wu and Guang Ling have never ridden on my neck. If they see this, they'll be jealous."

"Hey! You're not a pervert, are you? Talking this to a kid like me!" Gu Yuena stared with her big, clear amethyst eyes, indicating that she was still a baby.

"Really? I think you're way too smart, not at all like a six-year-old child." Tang San looked at the other person with great interest, his gaze seemingly composed of the light of countless stars, able to see through everything in the world.

Although she felt a sense of being seen through, Gu Yuena remained composed, hands on her hips, pouting, and said smugly, "Of course, I'm a child prodigy!"

"If I had known, I shouldn't have used those novel concepts and vocabulary in front of you." Tang San regretted it now. Gu Yuena didn't learn anything good, but she certainly learned to talk a good game.

Oh, I regret it so much...

The next day, after visiting Matthew, Tang San set off for Wuhun City.

In addition to Xiao Wu, Guang Ling, and Lan Yinzi, the accompanying people included Ning Rongrong, Huo Wu, and Gu Yuena.

Ning Rongrong did not want to be summoned by Ning Fengzhi to handle sect affairs.

Huo Wu, on the other hand, hopes to have more opportunities to compete with the three members of the Golden Generation from the Spirit Hall.

At least, both of them joined the Spirit Hall in their own names and went there with Tang San. Their reasons were sufficient and reasonable... what a load of rubbish!

Anyway, Xiao Wu and Guang Ling both felt that these two guys were just lusting after their third brother's body.

As for Gu Yuena, she insisted on coming along, saying that it would be fun to be by Tang San's side, that she could learn a lot of new and interesting things, and that she could also become stronger... but the main reason was simply that it would be fun.

This scene looked familiar to Xiao Wu. She felt as if she had been tricked by Third Brother in the same way back then... oh no, I mean attracted... Could this little silver dragon also become one of Third Brother's people?

Huh?

That doesn't seem so bad. The dignified ruler of all soul beasts will have to call her "sister" in the future. I'm kind of looking forward to this scene... What a load of rubbish!

You dare to steal my man?

Just wait and see how I teach you a lesson!

When the group arrived at Wuhun City, the guards at the city gate immediately knelt on one knee and called out "Holy Son". Hu Liena, as the Holy Maiden of Wuhun Hall, came out to greet them personally with Xie Yue and Yan, clearly having already known that they would be coming today.

Even Hu Liena couldn't help but gasp when she saw Tang San arrive with Xiao Wu, Guang Ling, Ning Rongrong, Huo Wu, Lan Yinzi, and a six-year-old girl with silver hair and purple eyes.

Who exactly is this guy here to take up his post in Wuhun City?

Or did you bring your "harem" to enjoy it?

"The Holy Son is quite leisurely, isn't he? It's been so long since he arrived at Wuhun City. A gentle embrace can easily erode one's will to go in," Hu Liena said sarcastically.

"I wasn't just sitting around doing nothing. I've been recording the martial spirit situations in many villages along the way. The 'Martial Spirit Evolution Theory' isn't something I just came up with out of thin air." Tang San smiled nonchalantly. "As for the 'gentle embrace' thing, cultivation should be a balance of work and rest. Being constantly tense won't help much in improving your soul power. Who knows, one day that string might break and you'll never be able to put it back together."

These words seemed to have a hidden meaning.

Hu Liena understood and knew that Tang San wasn't truly immersed in the pleasures of love. She nodded slightly, led the group into the city, and said, "His Holiness the Pope has arranged an independent manor for you, which is even better than the Silver Blue Manor bestowed upon you by Emperor Xueye. It is located at the foot of Wuhun Mountain, near a tranquil lake. I'll take you there."

"Then I'll trouble you, Holy Maiden." Tang San nodded.

"No need to be so polite, just call me Nana or Na'er. That's what people who know me call me." Hu Liena smiled sweetly. Although Tang San had a large group of admirers, she still felt a good impression of him. It was not only because of his unique life force and powerful strength, but more importantly because of his courage and wisdom in publishing his research results.

All of this fascinated her.

"Na'er won't do!" Gu Yuena suddenly spoke, a dangerous glint in her eyes. "Na'er is mine alone."

"Who is this little boy?" Hu Liena asked, puzzled.

"Gu Yue Na." Tang San introduced Gu Yue Na's basic situation, but in his heart he was secretly comparing her to Hu Liena in front of him. Suddenly a strange thought popped into his head: In the original Douluo series, the reason why Gu Yue Na is called Gu Yue Na is that the "Lie" in Hu Liena was removed, and then the "Hu" was split into "Gu" and "Yue"?

"That's right, it's me!" Gu Yuena took a small step forward, put her hands on her hips, and puffed out her chest. Her proud appearance was just like that of the super detective in "Winnie the Pooh".

Hu Liena: "..."

Forgive her, she's a native of Douluo Continent and can't understand why a little girl would pose like that.

But she quickly stopped caring. After all, children's thinking is always very unconventional, and it's not surprising that they do things that are completely illogical.

"Hello, Xiao Na'er," Hu Liena squatted down and greeted her.

"You must call me Lady Gu Yuena. I only allow people I know to call me Na'er now," Gu Yuena said seriously.

"Alright, Lady Gu Yuena." Hu Liena seemed to find the little girl amusing and wanted to pat her head, but the girl dodged away.

However, Gu Yuena wasn't angry. She stood up and continued to lead Tang San and the others.

Before long, the group arrived at the foot of Wuhun Mountain.

What came into view was a huge manor, with red bricks and black tiles, high gates and wide walls. It was divided into three areas: the outer layer was the servants' living area, the middle layer was the guest area and the simulated environment training area, and the inner layer was the master's living area.

Overall, the manor's architectural style is similar to a palace, but smaller, with an oriental feel that gave Tang San a sense of familiarity.

"The manor bestowed upon you by Emperor Xueye is in the architectural style of the Tiandou region. Therefore, His Holiness the Pope ordered the construction of this manor in the architectural style of the Xingluo region, named: Soul Martial." Hu Liena introduced the general outline of the manor, her tone revealing a hint of jealousy, "It's even a little bit larger than my own manor."

"Isn't this just the word 'Martial Soul' reversed?" Gu Yuena said with a unique perspective. "But it does sound strangely sophisticated."

Ignoring that, Tang San looked at the servants coming and going in the outer area of ​​the manor, bowing to them, and asked, "I can sense the fluctuations of their soul power. They're not high, but they're all Soul Masters. Are these all servants?"

"Yes." Hu Liena said calmly, as if it were commonplace. "They were originally nobles, but because someone in their family or sect offended the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire, or the powerful families or sects within the Spirit Hall, their families were wiped out and their clans exterminated. The survivors were sold into slavery."

"Those with some strength were sent to Wuhun City."

"After all, the people living in Wuhun City are all Soul Masters, or at least possess Soul Power. Larger families, in order to demonstrate their status, naturally require their servants to be Soul Masters as well."

Tang San did not intend to grant these servants their freedom like he did with the Silver Blue Manor in Heaven Dou City, and treat them as employees, since these were all Soul Masters!

Moreover, even as a Holy Son, one shouldn't do anything too outrageous upon arriving in Wuhun City. It's best to first understand the explicit and implicit rules of this place.

After Hu Liena led Tang San and the others on a tour of the entire Soul Martial Manor, Tang San arranged a room for Xiao Wu, Guang Ling, Lan Yinzi, Ning Rongrong, Huo Wu, and Gu Yuena.

Hu Liena said quietly, "Actually, His Holiness the Pope also ordered the construction of corresponding manors for Xiao Wu and the others, but they are smaller in scale than this one."

Xiao Wu raised an eyebrow: "Small? Then I can only accept Tang San's big one."

Guangling: "I live here because it's close to my teacher, which makes it easier for us to discuss and research together."

Lan Yinzi: "My martial soul is the same as Tang San's, so we can exchange ideas more on cultivation."

Huo Wu: "Xiao Wu and I are going to spar, and I'll need to ask Tang San for advice on creating my own soul skills."

Ning Rongrong: "My situation is similar to Huo Wu's. I want to ask about self-created soul skills. It's more convenient since we live nearby."

Gu Yuena raised her hand and said loudly, "Me too."

Well, everyone has their own reasons.

Hu Liena strongly suspects that the rumors circulating in Tiandou City about Tang San—that he has affairs with all the female members of the Tiandou team—are very likely true!

Aside from Gu Yuena, who is too young, it's unlikely they would make a move.

On the contrary, for some reason, Hu Liena always felt that Xiao Wu's words had a hidden meaning, and that they weren't entirely innocent.

I got off work at 3 p.m., thankfully the overtime wasn't long.
