After all, everyone knows that Xuan Hao has been running the Tiandou Self-Improvement Association in Tiandou City for the past few years. He has connections in both the legitimate and underworld circles, and he must have deep and secret interests with the Power Clan, who make a living by blacksmithing.
Sending him to deliver the message to the old Titan would be a flawless operation.
Faced with the expectant and trusting gazes of the girls and Tang Yuehua, Xuan Hao sighed helplessly and drank the last mouthful of soup in one gulp.
"Alright, alright, since you've arranged everything so perfectly, I'll take on this errand."
Xuan Hao grabbed a napkin to wipe his mouth, stood up, and instructed, "I'm going to wander over to the Power Clan later and find an opportunity to give Old Titan a heads-up and give him a wake-up call. But you guys better stay in the hotel and don't wander around."
He looked at Tang Yuehua: "I know Old Titan's temper. He's hot-tempered and impatient. If I remind him, he might not even wait until tomorrow. He'll probably drag Tang San over here this afternoon to come and claim kinship with you."
“Moreover,” Xuan Hao glanced around the luxurious penthouse suite, “meeting in the hotel has an advantage. Compared to the crowded and noisy Yuexuan, this is an absolutely private place, so it won’t attract too much attention, and it’s also convenient for you to talk behind closed doors.”
Tang Yuehua nodded repeatedly, taking note of Xuan Hao's instructions one by one.
She felt both nervous and excited about meeting her second brother's son.
Lunch ended quickly.
Xuan Hao didn't linger. After quickly tidying up, he turned and left the hotel, heading straight for the Li Clan's residence.
As soon as Xuan Hao left, the girls who had been so relaxed and lazy just moments before immediately sprang into action.
Everyone tacitly returned to their respective rooms, began to freshen up and dress, and changed into dignified and appropriate everyday clothes, no longer the casual and embarrassed person they had been just moments before.
After changing her clothes and coming out of the room, Ning Rongrong seemed to have thought of something, and frowned slightly: "No, we need to get another room, preferably a regular suite on this floor."
As Dugu Yan tidied her long, dark green hair, she nodded in agreement.
“Rongrong is right. If Tang San comes with Old Titan later, we can’t just bring him straight to our penthouse suite, can we?”
Dugu Yan surveyed the luxurious space, filled with the atmosphere of a young woman's life and a secretive ambiance, and curled her lip:
“Besides Xuan Hao, no other man has been allowed into this apartment in the past few years. Even the cleaning staff are all female attendants we specially selected. If a man like Tang San, whom we only know well, were to step into this place… it would feel too strange and awkward. I would get goosebumps all over.”
“Alright, leave this to me.” Ning Rongrong snapped her fingers. “I’ll go down and book a quiet guest suite. Xiao Wu, come with me.”
Then, Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu went downstairs hand in hand, chattering away.
The remaining Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ye Lingling greeted each other, then each found a corner in the living room covered with a thick cashmere carpet, sat down cross-legged quite naturally, closed their eyes, and began their daily meditation practice.
Soon, the spacious living room became quiet.
Only Na'er didn't go to cultivate. She walked to the sofa in front of the French windows and sat down next to Tang Yuehua.
Seeing that Tang Yuehua was slightly restless due to nervousness, Na'er thoughtfully poured her a cup of hot tea and handed it to her.
"Na'er, don't worry about me, I can sit here by myself. You should go and cultivate too." Tang Yuehua smiled a little shyly.
"There's no rush."
Na'er shook her head, a sly glint in her purple eyes. "I just had some special training recently, and my cultivation level improved too quickly. It's okay for me to rest a bit and consolidate my realm now."
Na'er leaned closer and lowered her voice, "And, Sister Yuehua, compared to cultivation... when you see Tang San later, how should you speak? More importantly, how can you prevent your brother from getting jealous? This is a matter of life and death, so I need to teach you properly beforehand."
"what?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Yuehua's hand holding the teacup trembled violently, and her expression instantly became extremely unnatural.
The image of Xuan Hao deliberately tormenting her out of jealousy yesterday afternoon flashed through her mind again, and she asked somewhat guiltily, "What...what should I be careful about?"
"Sister Yuehua, don't be fooled by how carefree and easygoing my brother always seems in front of us, actually..."
Na'er took a deep breath. "Once you truly enter his heart and are placed within his territory, you will clearly feel the almost perverse, absolute possessiveness and protectiveness hidden deep within him!"
"Your brother's jealousy is a hundred times more terrifying than you can imagine!"
"Therefore, I am certain that when Tang San comes to recognize his relatives later, my brother will definitely not be there to watch."
Because if he were there, given his incredibly jealous nature—he's like a vat of vinegar that could explode at any moment… even if someone just politely gets close to us or touches us, he'll immediately and uncontrollably feel a surge of murderous intent!
"Even if Tang San is your nephew, a junior related by blood, as long as he is a male, I will absolutely mind him hanging around you!"
Seeing Tang Yuehua's somewhat shocked expression, Na'er continued to reveal Xuan Hao's domineering and protective style:
“When my brother is guiding us in our training, he doesn’t object to us going out to practice and try things out on our own. He even allows us to get minor injuries in battle. He knows that’s the price we have to pay for growth.”
"But!"
"This absolutely does not mean he won't be angry because of our injuries! Often, those Soul Masters or Soul Beasts that my brother carefully selects and sends to us as whetstones for training will suffer my brother's crazy revenge afterwards!"
Listening to Na'er's description, Tang Yuehua couldn't help but swallow, feeling a bitter taste in her mouth.
Yes! She experienced firsthand how awful this kid was yesterday, and that's exactly what she's worried about now!
If I were to show too much enthusiasm and concern for Tang Hao and his son during the family reunion today, and inadvertently upset that bastard, the consequences would be unimaginable!
"Sister Yuehua, don't be afraid."
Na'er held Tang Yuehua's hand and gently comforted her, "Although my brother definitely won't be there when we recognize our relatives later, he's a very suspicious person by nature. He'll definitely ask us indirectly afterward, and he might even ask you directly."
"If you lie to him, you will definitely not be able to hide it from his eyes. But if you tell the truth, and the truth happens to include your excessive concern and intimate behavior towards Tang San... it will make him unhappy."
Na'er paused, a hint of sympathy flashing in her eyes: "Although my brother would never bear to lay a finger on you, he has nowhere to vent his anger. Tang San... is probably going to be in deep trouble, and his misery is beyond repair!"
Na'er stared intently into Tang Yuehua's eyes, "So, Sister Yuehua, you must be careful about the extent of your contact with Tang San later!"
"You must care for him from the absolute and only authoritative perspective of an elder! And, no matter what, you must maintain an absolutely clear distance from him, both physically and verbally! You cannot be too enthusiastic, and you must not make any intimate gestures that could be misunderstood!"
"Otherwise... my brother really will eat people!"
Chapter 305 Tang San's Ledger: Teacher, have you exhausted your value?
……
Just as the situation at the Tiandou Royal Hotel was progressing smoothly, an hour later, at the Blue Tyrant Academy...
After receiving Xuan Hao's secret "tips," Old Titan rushed over in a hurry and is now searching for Tang San all over the academy.
At this moment, Tang San was sitting alone on a huge rock behind the academy, his brows furrowed.
Last night in the cafeteria, Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan's scathing critique of Yu Xiaogang was like a demonic chant echoing repeatedly in his mind.
If we set aside the emotional filter of the master-disciple relationship and examine it solely from a purely rational and pragmatic perspective...
Tang San had to admit that although the girls' words were harsh, they were all very insightful.
Yu Xiaogang doesn't seem to offer him much practical help now.
Tang San would not deny that the basic theories of martial spirit taught by his teacher over the past six years had enlightened him.
However, if we were to insist on saying how much his theoretical knowledge improved his practical skills...
There's no need to deceive yourself.
To put it bluntly, all that vast amount of theoretical knowledge is like a chicken rib to him now—tasteless to eat but a pity to throw away.
It has some use, but not much; it's practically dispensable.
Back then at Notting Academy, he had just been reborn into the completely unfamiliar world of Soul Masters.
Because he knew nothing about anything, and because of the uniqueness and potential dangers of his twin martial souls, he decided to become Yu Xiaogang's apprentice with the mindset of seeking a safe haven and a guiding light.
But so many years have passed in the blink of an eye.
He had been patiently enduring and diligently cultivating the Blue Silver Grass, which was considered a "useless martial soul" by the world.
However, he never used the "Clear Sky Hammer" martial soul, which he had always kept hidden and which possessed terrifying destructive power, because of his teacher's warning.
Previously, in the remote city of Nottingham, he only came into contact with the lowest-level commoners in the world of Soul Masters. The quality of their Martial Souls was generally mediocre, at most they were useless Martial Souls like scythes and hoes.
If we had to pick the best among the worst, only Xiao Wu's "Soft Bone Rabbit" martial soul is of decent quality.
But it's only good; it's not a truly top-tier martial soul at all.
In that small pond, relying on the advantages of Tang Sect's unique skills and innate full soul power, Tang San naturally felt superior to others and had no clear concept of the difference in the quality of martial souls.
However, upon arriving in Soto and witnessing a wider world, everything changed.
He came into contact with more truly talented Soul Masters.
Dai Mubai's "White Tiger" and Ma Hongjun's "Evil Fire Phoenix"—these top-tier beast martial souls made him feel the pressure at the bloodline level for the first time.
But what shocked and alarmed him the most was Yu Tianheng, whom he encountered in the Soul Arena.
The Soul Master who possessed the "Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex" spirit displayed terrifying speed, explosive power, and pure destructive force, making Tang San truly realize a cruel reality:
In the world of Soul Masters, the so-called difference in Soul Power level can often be completely erased by the powerful quality of the Martial Soul itself and the suppression of bloodline!
Even so, Tang San wasn't actually too anxious at the time.
After all, Yu Tianheng is a power-attack type Soul Master, and in the Douluo Continent system, power-attack types are inherently countered by control types.
Even if Yu Tianheng had a powerful attack, he would not be able to unleash his full strength in front of this control-type soul master who had endless tricks up his sleeve.
However, Tang San also knew very well that without using hidden weapons and Tang Sect's secret techniques, his fragile Blue Silver Grass was equally helpless against Yu Tianheng's extreme speed and power.
From that time on, Tang San would often find himself thinking about it late at night:
If... if he were cultivating not this damned, weak and powerless Blue Silver Grass, but that so-called "Haotian Hammer", would the situation be completely different?
Previously, he only felt that the hammer in his left hand was heavy and special, but he didn't know exactly what made it special.
But now, he knows his origins, he knows that it is the inherited martial spirit of the Haotian Sect—the number one weapon martial spirit in the world!
That was a terrifying weapon that represented ultimate power and absolute explosive force!
If he were to cultivate the Clear Sky Hammer now, then even if he were to face Yu Tianheng again, even if that guy's soul power was higher than his own, he would be able to completely crush him head-on by relying on the Clear Sky Hammer's powerful burst and overwhelming strength!
The biggest difference between him and these true geniuses is not talent, nor effort, but the innate difference in the quality of their martial souls!
This disparity in the quality of martial souls, which is so disheartening, was most vividly demonstrated in the case of Xuan Hao, that monster.
Xuan Hao's martial soul quality has reached an absurd, even unreasonable, level.
That all-around attribute overwhelm, that absolute power that could crush any enemy, made Tang San feel a deep sense of defeat for the first time on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Even subconsciously, a self-doubt arose that "I could never beat that guy in my lifetime."
This has nothing to do with whether Tang San is confident or not; it is a calm judgment based on the absolute reality.
Xuan Hao is not much older than him now.
But this person of the same age has now actually broken through to the Soul Saint realm and can unleash the Martial Soul True Body!
What is this concept?
