Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 437 Rumors and Gossip in Xiaohai City

That night, Luo Qiu broke free of the Soul-Sealing Belt and led the other thirteen Moon Night Elves to blast open a hole and escape outside the city.

Mr. Ghost immediately gave chase, but after exchanging two blows with Luo Qiu, he was quite shocked because the opponent's strength had increased, and was even close to reaching the level of peerless.

Could it be—

Realizing something, Mr. Ghost chased for three miles before stopping and leading the Spirit Hall group back, saying, "Let's go back. We were careless this time, but they won't be so lucky next time."

"Damn it! Those guys actually ran away!" Avalanche cursed inwardly. Those moonlit elves were all very good-looking, and even someone as uninterested as him was quite tempted. Avalanche's playboy persona was a disguise, but in all these years of pretending to be a "pig," hadn't he really learned some of the "essence" of being a "pig"?

Besides, most normal men are lustful.

"The Spirit Hall's Soul Sealing Belt isn't all that great." Xue Beng turned his attention to Hu Liena. Although Tang San was the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, he was also the Silver Blue Earl of the Heaven Dou Empire. Because he was elected as the emperor of the new Heaven Dou Federation, his relationship with Xue Beng was already strained enough. There was no need to offend another one... In his opinion, Tang San must also be interested in the future position of Pope of the Spirit Hall.

After all, who would refuse rights?

Therefore, Tang San's current indifference to power is merely a facade in Xue Beng's eyes; in reality, he is in competition with the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall.

Men always care about their image and want to appear generous.

However, this is not the time for infighting, so the avalanche was just a minor mockery of Hu Liena, the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, and should not offend Tang San.

Hu Liena completely ignored the avalanche.

In reality, most people on the field treated Avalanche as an insignificant, invisible person. Only Golong would show some consideration for Avalanche's feelings for the sake of Tiandou's reputation.

"Your Holiness, what do you have to say about the escape of the Moonlit Elves?" Mr. Ghost's hoarse voice rang out as he asked curiously. "After all, it was you and Miss Gu Yuena who entered the dungeon and came out, and then at night, they ran away. It makes one wonder if you made some kind of secret deal."

"Luo Qiu has been subdued and is now our spy," Tang San told the truth. He didn't say how he was subdued, since that concerned Gu Yuena's secret.

Mr. Ghost was the first to believe it, and sighed, "As expected of the Holy Son, he is truly amazing. He can even subdue his enemies and make them abandon darkness for light. When the time comes, he will deliver a fatal blow to Xu Huang. He will never expect it."

Hu Liena stared at Mr. Ghost speechlessly for a while, thinking to herself: Did Senior Ghost Douluo and Tang San find out something by acting in concert like this?

Gu Yuena turned her head and glanced at Tang San... When it comes to being speechless, she was the most speechless.

We clearly agreed that we couldn't let the eighth person know how many people are here now.

It probably won't be long before the entire Soul Sea City knows!

However, it wasn't just Soul Sea City that heard the rumors; just two days later, even Howling Sea City heard the gossip.

"Have you heard? The Emperor's concubine, Luo Qiu, has betrayed him and is now a traitor!"

"It's definitely fake!"

"That's not necessarily true. After all, a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea. Let me tell you, my ex-girlfriend and I were once deeply in love, but she turned around and threw herself into the arms of a young master from a wealthy family, saying that I couldn't give her the happiness she wanted."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Get back to work!"

It wasn't until the news reached Xu Huang's ears that he ordered that insiders be forbidden from spreading it.

Would Luo Qiu betray him?

impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

After all, Luo Qiu is a moonlit elf, and a large number of her people are still in the Eternal Realm. In addition, she has followed him for so many years. Even if there is no physical intimacy, there are still feelings between them. How could she betray him?

Moreover, if Luo Qiu really became a spy, how stupid would the people of Soul Sea City be to spread the news so widely in just two days?

This is definitely a divisive tactic!

Because Luo Qiu brought back information about Tang San, the generals of Soul Sea City were enraged and prepared this strategy... Although it could not shake him, the soldiers below who did not know the specifics of Luo Qiu's situation would be terrified.

Xu Huang wasn't worried about the loyalty of the Sun and Moon Army, but if these soldiers were to spare some attention to be wary of Luo Qiu, it would definitely reduce their work and combat efficiency.

Sometimes, being too loyal has its drawbacks...

"That despicable Tang San! He actually used such a scheme! How despicable!" Xu Huang gritted his teeth, wishing he could rush straight to Soul Sea City and slap the other party across the face twice.

Unfortunately, the Throne of Eternity and Creation requires the user to be "restrained," that is, to be just, kind, tolerant, calm, etc. All his desires, unless they come from love in his heart, will cause the throne to reduce his feelings towards him - who can blame him when this thing has a spirit and a soul?

Otherwise, how could Luo Qiu still be a virgin?

It can be said that ever since he obtained the throne of the God of Eternity and Creation, Xu Huang has been suppressing his inner desires and trying to maintain the appearance of a glamorous and elegant nobleman. The darkness in his heart can only be suppressed and cannot be released.

Luo Qiu's expression was also strange.

We clearly agreed that we wouldn't let an eighth person know, but how many people know about this now?

However, as long as Xu Huang doesn't believe she betrayed him... Thinking of this, Luo Qiu seemed to understand something, and cursed inwardly: Humans, what a cunning race! There are so many twists and turns in this!

But who told her to get on Gu Yuena's pirate ship?

Involuntarily.

However, Luo Qiu could not directly assassinate Xu Huang for three main reasons.

Firstly, Xu Huang's strength is not bad. Although his soul power is only level 82, his strength is comparable to that of a titled Douluo of level 95 or above without using the Divine Throne.

She won't make a move unless she can kill the target instantly.

Secondly, the Sun Moon Army is extremely fanatical about Xu Huang. If Xu Huang were to die suddenly, they would use large soul-guided bombs to perish together with her, and she would also be injured.

Thirdly, she originated from the Eternal Realm. The Eternal Realm and the Throne of the God of Creation are, after all, the birthplace of her homeland, and its users should be treated with due respect.

Xu Huang was a true powerhouse, and even if he were to die, he should have the most dignified way to die—that is, to die in a war worthy of his status as an emperor.

"Your Majesty, there's something else regarding Tang San that I'm unsure whether I should tell you," Luo Qiu said, seeing Xu Huang calm down from his anger. "Tang San actually let me come back on purpose..."

"I know!" Xu Huang nodded. "I won't be defeated by the rumors they spread, after all, they don't know the relationship between you and me."

"It's not that." Luo Qiu shook his head, staring at Xu Huang. "He wants me to issue you another challenge, to fight on the vast ocean!"
