Douluo Continent: Twin Golden and Silver Dragons Shock Bibi Dong

"Based on my understanding of him, the most likely reason he took Dai Mubai away was to dump him at the entrance of the most unscrupulous clinic in Soto City."

"Firstly, so that the doctor can stop the bleeding in time and save his life; secondly..."

A sly glint flashed in Na'er's purple eyes as she added softly:

"Brother Xuanhao will definitely leave a message, instructing the doctor to completely cut away that necrotic mass of flesh that could even lead to infection! To prevent future problems!"

"This..." Zhu Zhuqing gasped in shock.

"However..."

Na'er abruptly changed the subject, her tone suddenly taking on a hint of schadenfreude:

"It's unlikely they'll just throw him into the brothel, but..."

"Given Xuanhao's shrewd and profiteering nature, the possibility of him selling a dignified prince of Xingluo as a 'severely disabled slave' directly to some perverted underground black market boss... that's quite likely, isn't it!"

……

It was evening, inside a luxury suite at the Soto Grand Hotel.

Several girls had just finished washing up and were chatting in the living room. With a soft "click," the suite door was pushed open from the outside.

Xuan Hao dusted off non-existent dust from his body and walked in refreshed.

Before he could even change his shoes, Ning Rongrong, who had been impatiently waiting in the living room, rushed over like a gust of wind. With her hands behind her back, her big eyes darting around, she stared at him with a gossipy expression and suddenly asked:

"How was it? How much did it sell for?"

"Two hundred gold soul coins."

Xuan Hao blurted out instinctively, even curling his lip in disdain, "Those black market guys are such a bunch of stingy misers. I already told them it was a rare blonde heterochromatic breed, and they still managed to rip me off..."

He had only spoken halfway when Xuan Hao suddenly realized what he was saying.

He abruptly stopped changing his shoes, looked up, and stared at Ning Rongrong, who was barely suppressing a laugh, with a look of utter disbelief. He then glanced at Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu on the sofa, who also had strange expressions, and exclaimed in astonishment:

"No... how did you know I sold him out?!"

Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing all turned their heads and cast admiring glances at Na'er, who was sitting on the edge of the sofa, swinging her legs.

That little girl was absolutely right!

It's not that I'm afraid of thugs who can fight, it's that I'm afraid of thugs who understand economics! They actually sold out the dignified Prince of Xingluo as if he were disabled!

"No one knows a brother better than his sister."

Meeting the gazes of the group, Na'er raised her snow-white chin with extreme arrogance, her purple eyes flashing with a cunning light that seemed to "see through everything": "I knew it. With my brother's greedy nature, he would never let such a 'resource' delivered to his door go to waste."

"..."

Seeing Na'er's smug look, Xuan Hao awkwardly touched his nose, walked to the sofa, plopped down, poured himself a glass of water, and began to seriously explain... no, I mean, justify his actions:

"Hey, don't look at me like that. I'm not just doing this for those two hundred gold soul coins; this is a well-thought-out tactical arrangement!"

Xuan Hao took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and then analyzed the situation with a confident air:

“Think about it, Dai Mubai is at least a level 37 Battle Soul Venerable. Even if he is seriously injured and… cough, has lost some important organs, when he faints from the pain and wakes up, can ordinary ropes and chains hold him? He can definitely break free of the restraints with ease.”

Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged a glance and nodded subconsciously. With his Soul Master physique, ordinary black market merchants couldn't possibly hold him back.

"so!"

Xuan Hao spread his hands, a shrewd glint in his eyes:

"I sold him to the darkest slave market in Soto City. With Dai Mubai's extremely proud, arrogant, and volatile temper, when he woke up, he would find himself not only crippled but also being bought and sold like livestock..."

"What do you think he'll do?"

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes flickered slightly, and she immediately guessed Xuan Hao's intention: "He will be enraged and, in order to cover up this extremely humiliating dark history of his, he will go on a killing spree and kill people to silence them!"

"clever!"

Xuan Hao snapped his fingers. "Those people who buy and sell people in the black market are all heartless scoundrels. Which one of them doesn't have the lives of a few innocent people on their hands? They deserve to die a hundred times over."

"I threw Dai Mubai in there, so that he could experience the unbearable suffering of life, and also use his crazed hands after he woke up to uproot this cancerous gang in the underground of Soto City!"

Xuan Hao leaned back on the sofa, extremely satisfied with his actions:

"This is what you call maximizing the use of waste! Plus, punishing evil and promoting good, acting on behalf of heaven, and using violence to control violence! How about that? Isn't my move full of righteous light?"

"..."

After listening to Xuan Hao's logically rigorous, even morally questionable, analysis, the four girls looked at each other, unable to find any reason to refute him.

Even the usually aloof Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but twitch her lips slightly.

They cripple people, stuff them in sacks and sell them, pocketing the money themselves, and then expect the victims to become their free henchmen in their anti-gang campaigns...

What kind of righteous light is this?!

Chapter 177 Guilty Heart

……

Night quietly fell.

Xuan Hao took a hot shower, washing away his fatigue and travel dust, and was about to lie down on the soft bed for a good night's rest.

"Click—"

Suddenly, there was a very slight turning sound from the doorknob of his room.

Xuan Hao's ears twitched slightly, but he didn't get up. With his immense mental power, he had already sensed the other person's presence when they crept closer outside the door.

As the door was quietly pushed open a crack, a petite figure slipped in like a thief and locked the door behind her.

Before Xuan Hao could even speak...

"thump!"

The figure, like a nimble kitten, pounced directly onto Xuan Hao's large, soft bed. With a flip, it wrapped itself around him like an octopus, using both hands and feet.

A faint fragrance of jasmine wafts through the air.

"...In the middle of the night, instead of sleeping, you're breaking into my room to steal?"

Xuan Hao sighed helplessly, and in the faint moonlight coming through the window, he looked at Ning Rongrong, who was lying on his chest with bright, sparkling eyes.

"Stop playing dumb with me!"

Ning Rongrong pouted angrily and punched Xuan Hao in the chest without any hesitation, then started bringing up old grievances:

"Back in the Star Dou Great Forest, you personally promised to make it up to me!"

"And what happened? First, he made an excuse to help Zhu Qing hunt for a soul ring, then he said he had an emergency at home and ran off in a flash, leaving me alone in Soto City for more than two months!"

Ning Rongrong's beautiful eyes were filled with resentment as she stared at him like a little creditor demanding payment.

"Now you're finally back. You've got Zhu Qing's spirit ring, and you've taken care of things at home. We'll have plenty of free time in Soto City now. Let's see what excuse you can come up with to fob me off this time!"

Listening to Ning Rongrong's rapid-fire accusations, Xuan Hao was both amused and exasperated.

He reached out and pinched Ning Rongrong's slightly flushed face, saying helplessly:

"My dear aunt, why are you in such a hurry? How old are you? Can't you think about those things in a few years?"

"Who's in a hurry! I'm just afraid you, you womanizer, will be seduced by some wild fox outside!"

Ning Rongrong clung tightly to Xuan Hao's arm like a protective mother hen, her face flushed as she retorted:

"And don't try to make a big deal out of your age! Don't think I don't know how much of a fling you and Sister Yan Yan had behind the scenes when you were in Tian Dou City!"

"Sister Yanyan has grown up a long time ago, and her figure is even better than mine now! Moreover, she secretly shared her experience with me. She said that you seem so serious on the surface, but you have some... extremely special 'little quirks' in private!"

Ning Rongrong raised her snow-white chin, looking smug as if to say, "I have mastered the core secrets."

"If you hadn't tried it on Sister Yan Yan, how would you know so many weird ways to play? I don't believe you've always been so obedient!"

"..."

Upon hearing the words "Dugu Yan" and "little quirks," Xuan Hao's face flushed slightly, a rare occurrence for him, and he immediately felt somewhat embarrassed.

"cough……"

Xuan Hao coughed somewhat guiltily, trying to salvage his glorious and imposing image:

"Well... Yan Yan and I did do some... fun games that helped us relax. But! I swear, I absolutely kept my bottom line, I didn't actually sleep with her!"

"Oh? It's just a little game to relax and unwind~"

Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong's eyes shone even brighter. Like a cunning little fox, she leaned close to Xuan Hao's ear, her breath sweet as orchids:

"Since you can play those little games with Sister Yan Yan, then you can play the same games with me, right?"

"And, for tonight..."

Ning Rongrong blushed and expertly wiped her wrist with the storage bracelet.

"Splash—"

The next second, a whole bunch of colorful little trinkets, made with very little fabric, landed on the large bed like a shower of flowers.

"..."

Looking at the pile of daring "battle robes" in front of him, enough to make any normal man's blood boil, Xuan Hao was completely dumbfounded, his head buzzing.

"You...you've been in Soto City all this time, buying all this stuff?!"

"Hmph, if it weren't to prevent you from running away, I wouldn't buy these embarrassing things!"

Ning Rongrong blushed, biting her lower lip shyly, but her eyes were extremely determined. She reached for the black ribbon dress and boldly held it up in front of her budding figure, her voice barely audible, yet carrying a resolute air:

"Anyway... I'm definitely not going to let you go tonight."

Looking at this little white lamb that "voluntarily delivered itself to his door," "a lamb entering a tiger's den," and even had to bring its own cumin, Xuan Hao's Adam's apple bobbed.

"You asked for this."

……

The following morning, the rising sun shone through the end of the corridor, illuminating the hallway of the Soto Grand Hotel's luxury suites.

"Click".

Xuan Hao yawned, gently closed the door to his room, and walked out.
