I am the son of the Dragon God in Douluo Continent.

Seeing the flying needles coming towards him, Xu Sanshi immediately released his martial spirit to try to block them, and soon a series of clanging sounds rang out.

Most of the previously intimidating golden needles were blocked by Xu Sanshi's Xuanwu Shield and fell to the ground.

However, judging from Xu Sanshi's swollen forearm, one or two shots were still successfully landed on him.

At this moment, Xu Sanshi could feel excruciating pain. The attack technique just now was clearly the Dragon Beard Needle of the Tang Sect. Otherwise, how could an ordinary flying needle break through his soul power?

Sure enough, a girl dressed in pink appeared in front of Xu Sanshi. She was none other than Tang Ya, the current sect leader of the Tang Clan!

Seeing this, Xu Sanshi also started yelling, his eyes red, "Tang Ya, you're crazy! What did I ever do to you?!"

It's no wonder Xu Sanshi was so angry. Anyone who is attacked for no reason would be furious, let alone attacked by a vicious weapon like the Dragon Beard Needle.

"You ruined my Tang Clan disciple's stall and burned his clothes! You say you didn't provoke me?!" Tang Ya continued, staring at the charred grilled fish. "What's more, you destroyed the grilled fish that Yuhao helped me prepare! I'm going to hold this grudge!"

Upon hearing this, how could Xu Sanshi not realize that Huo Yuhao had said he wanted to leave some grilled fish for the friend who provided him with the props? It turned out he was referring to Tang Ya!

If that's the case, then it's indeed his fault, but that doesn't mean Xu Sanshi would willingly endure Tang Ya's insults and attacks.

"Didn't I already compensate that junior student?" Xu Sanshi said, looking at the money bag in Huo Yuhao's hand. "Ask him if you don't believe me!"

Following Xu Sanshi's gaze, Tang Ya noticed the money belt in Huo Yuhao's hand. After asking for it, she discovered that it contained ten gold soul coins.

However, Tang Ya didn't let Xu Sanshi off the hook. Instead, she went even further, saying, "You think you can just give us ten gold soul coins to get rid of the Tang Clan? You're being far too presumptuous!"

"Hey! Ten gold soul coins is a considerable sum!" Xu Sanshi retorted. "In my opinion, that kid's grill and clothes combined don't even amount to a single gold soul coin! Giving him ten is already more than enough!"

"Is that enough sincerity? Have you paid for Yuhao's emotional distress? And have you paid for ruining my grilled fish?"

At this moment, Tang Ya was like an old lady on the street who liked to stage accidents for extortion, and she began to talk endlessly about all sorts of compensation amounts.

This made Xu Sanshi unable to bear it any longer! Although he was indeed in the wrong, Tang Ya was simply making things difficult for him!

However, just as Xu Sanshi was about to disregard the fact that she was a girl and give her a good beating, a cold voice said, "Your Tang Clan is really getting worse and worse. You've actually fallen so low as to become these old women who try to scam people. If Tang San, our ancestor from ten thousand years ago, saw you like this, he would definitely weep bitterly, wouldn't he?"

Dugu Yanran, who had been silent all along, stepped forward. After all, what woman would want to see her boyfriend being excessively demanded compensation by a shameless young woman?

Tang Ya looked at Dugu Yanran, a hint of anger flashing in her eyes, and inwardly roared, "What do you mean by 'becoming a con artist'? I'm just protecting my own!"

However, Tang Ya did not dare to voice her thoughts, because the Dugu Yanran in front of her was different. Her family had a friendly relationship with the Tang Clan a long time ago, but due to some conflicts, they never wanted to see each other again.

If this woman were to publicize what happened back then, then Tang Ya's chances of reviving the Tang Clan would inevitably be reduced to almost zero.

As for the feud between the Tang Sect and the Dugu family, it dates back to the time of Poison Douluo Dugu Bo ten thousand years ago, who and Tang San, the founder of the Tang Sect, called each other friends.

Dugu Bo once owned a medicinal garden, known as the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, one of the three great treasure troves. Later, because Tang San helped Dugu Bo solve the family's hereditary poison, Dugu Bo was willing to share his medicinal garden with Tang San.

However, this very herb garden became the main reason for the split between the Dugu family and the Tang Clan.

Initially, the two shared all the herbs in the herb garden. Although Tang San once picked all the herbs, Dugu Bo was heartbroken because Tang San was a benefactor and friend of the Dugu family, but he didn't say anything.

Later, Tang San and Dugu Bo discussed whether Tang Clan disciples could come to the herb garden to pick some herbs every now and then. Dugu Bo did not refuse, after all, it was their shared property, and Dugu Bo himself had no interest in herbs other than those that could cure the family's poison.

However, after Tang San became a god, this herb garden became a secret realm exclusively for the Tang Sect, and those who were not members of the Tang Sect were not allowed to enter.

Therefore, after Dugu Bo's death, other members of the Dugu family wanted to take the herbs they needed from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, but were instead driven away by the Tang Clan.

At that time, Dugu Yan, Dugu Bo's granddaughter, approached Tang San, wanting to know why they couldn't go to her grandfather's medicine garden. Tang San replied that Dugu Yan was not a member of the Tang Clan and therefore not qualified to enter the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

This enraged Dugu Yan, who then began arguing with Tang San about the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, which was originally the property of the Dugu family. Why should Tang San take it over?

Tang San countered that the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was a symbol of his friendship with Dugu Bo, and that Dugu Bo had given him the medicine garden; therefore, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well completely belonged to him, Tang San.

Dugu Yan wanted to tell him that he was blatantly lying, but Tang San was, after all, a god. Who would the people of the world listen to? A powerful god or a dispensable Dugu family?

Therefore, in the end, Dugu Yan had no choice but to make the Dugu family a part of the Tang Clan for the sake of her family.

At first, things were fine because everyone in the family had become disciples of the Tang Clan, making it much easier to obtain medicinal herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

However, Tang San raised the requirements for entering the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to the point that only those who have made significant contributions to the Tang Sect could go there.

The Dugu family also began to devote themselves wholeheartedly to the Tang Sect, just in order to obtain a spot to go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

However, the people chosen each time were Tang San's direct descendants; the Dugu family was never chosen.

On one occasion, the credit clearly belonged to the Dugu family, but the Haotian Sect insisted that it was their achievement.

Because of the close relationship between the Clear Sky Sect and Tang San, Tang San gave the spot to someone from the Clear Sky Sect.

This action caused the Dugu family to completely lose faith in the Tang Sect, and they collectively abandoned the Tang Sect's secret techniques and left this place of trouble.

They would rather deal with the family's poison on their own than work for the Tang Clan, a sect that only lacks justice.

From then on, whenever the Tang Clan and the Dugu family met again, the tension was palpable, as if they were mortal enemies.

Now, ten thousand years later, the feud between the Tang Clan and the Dugu Family is not that deep. At most, they just don't like each other and don't interfere with each other.

However, this does not mean that the hatred between the two families has disappeared. Take Tang Ya and Dugu Yanran as examples.

Tang Ya always felt that the Dugu family was an insatiable ingrate. Even though it was Tang San's ancestor who solved the family's poison, the Dugu family dared to betray the Tang Sect. This was a heinous crime!

Dugu Yanran, on the other hand, believed that the Tang Clan members were a bunch of hypocrites and vampires who, after squeezing all the benefits out of the Dugu family, kicked them aside and made them lose their ancestral medicinal garden forever.

Therefore, whenever Tang Ya and Dugu Yanran meet, they inevitably have a verbal argument and start arguing over trivial matters, which makes their relationship irreconcilable.

Now, because Tang Ya was trying to harm her boyfriend using logic that resembled that of a robber, Dugu Yanran felt an unprecedented level of contempt for Tang Ya.
