Well, Well, You Thick-Browed, Big-Eyed Rascal

"N-No, it's nothing. Thank you for helping us just now, sir." Tang Weiwei's smile looked somewhat forced.

Although Li Yuan had just saved the two sisters, the practiced way he had handled the bodies, along with that murderer-like smile on his face, made him look anything but trustworthy.

Tang Weiwei was genuinely worried that Li Yuan might get carried away with killing and finish off both sisters as well. It was no wonder she looked fearful and wary.

"Don't worry, ladies. I mean you no harm." Li Yuan naturally noticed the tension in Tang Weiwei's expression. He waved a hand to show that he had no malicious intentions.

"I'm just a little curious. How did you offend those people? If I'm not mistaken, they were coming for you, weren't they?"

Before Tang Weiwei could recover, Li Yuan bluntly voiced the question on his mind.

To be honest, he really was curious. Logically speaking, Tang Weiwei was merely an ordinary Four-Ring Spirit Ancestor and a Spirit Hall soul master. She should not have offended such a gang of vicious soul masters.

Besides, ordinary soul masters would not have the nerve to attack people from Spirit Hall!

Li Yuan could not figure it out no matter how much he thought about it, so he simply stopped thinking and asked directly. He had saved the Tang sisters' lives; it was only fair for them to clear up his doubts.

"Huh?" Tang Weiwei froze for a moment, clearly not expecting Li Yuan to be so direct.

However, recalling Li Yuan's ruthless methods earlier and considering that he truly was her savior, Tang Weiwei had no intention of deceiving him. She immediately began explaining.

"Those men in black just now should have been Ron's subordinates," Tang Weiwei explained.

"Ron?" The first person Li Yuan thought of upon hearing that name was Ron Weasley from Harry Potter, Harry Potter's best buddy.

Well, well, you thick-browed, big-eyed rascal. You actually transmigrated to Douluo Continent too, and even started forcibly snatching women.

Tang Weiwei had no idea about the little drama playing out in Li Yuan's mind and continued explaining on her own. "This Ron is a noble of the Heaven Dou Empire. His father is a marquis of the Heaven Dou Empire."

"Wait, I'm a little curious. What's the name of that Ron's father?"

Li Yuan interrupted Tang Weiwei, asking with an intrigued expression.

Although Tang Weiwei found it strange that Li Yuan would suddenly ask such a question, she did not dwell on it and answered directly, "Ron's father is a marquis of the Heaven Dou Empire. His name is Luon Cheng."

"Luon what?"

Li Yuan was immediately dumbfounded. Wasn't Luon Cheng from Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties? How did he transmigrate to Douluo Continent too, and become Ron's father?

Then what was the grandfather called? Luo Yi?

"Luon Cheng. Do you know him?" Tang Weiwei had no idea why Li Yuan's expression had turned so strange. Thinking that Li Yuan might know someone from the Luon Family, she could not help becoming wary, afraid that this Li Xiaoyao might actually be cut from the same cloth as Ron.

"No, I don't. I just think it's quite a good name. A fusion of East and West. Mm, very impressive!"

"By the way, let me ask one more question. What's Ron's grandfather called? Is he Luo Yi?"

"Luo Yi?" Tang Weiwei shook her head and said seriously, "Ron's grandfather is called Luo Shixin. He was a Spirit Douluo and once an expert cultivated by the Heaven Dou Empire. But he later died in a conflict with the Star Luo Empire. Luon Cheng then inherited Luo Shixin's title and became a marquis of the Heaven Dou Empire."

All right, there were simply too many things to mock. Li Yuan no longer knew where to begin. This family's names were truly indescribable; their family relationships somehow felt incredibly tangled.

Tang Weiwei did not notice the confusion in Li Yuan's expression. Seeing that he was no longer interrupting her, she continued describing the conflict between herself and Ron.

The matter was actually very simple. To put it plainly, it was merely the story of a spoiled noble brat from Heaven Dou City using his power to bully others and trying to forcibly seize a woman. Nothing particularly new.

Of course, Tang Weiwei was no ordinary helpless woman. She was a Four-Ring Spirit Ancestor. Her talent was not top-tier, but it was far from poor.

With her Spirit Hall background as well, Ron did not dare use force at first. Instead, he planned to court Tang Weiwei.

However, Tang Weiwei looked down on a spoiled brat like Ron, who spent his days bullying men and harassing women. She directly ignored Ron's advances and had never given him a pleasant look.

After repeatedly pursuing Tang Weiwei only to be rejected, Ron could no longer save face. In a fit of rage, he simply ordered his family's soul masters to kidnap the Tang sisters and force themselves on them.

Come to think of it, that was Ron's usual way of doing things. He was a spoiled brat who bullied men and harassed women to begin with. Forcibly snatching women was practically routine for him.

He had only refrained from acting recklessly because he feared Tang Weiwei's Spirit Hall identity. It was not until he became enraged from humiliation that he revealed his true nature.

To be honest, when they received Ron's order, the soul masters of the Luon Family were in quite a difficult position. After all, Tang Weiwei was a Spirit Hall soul master and rarely left Heaven Dou City.

Kidnapping a Spirit Hall soul master in broad daylight was practically slapping Spirit Hall across the face in public. They were not fools—how could they dare do such a thing?

However, just as the Luon Family's soul masters were hesitating over what to do, good news arrived. Tang Weiwei's younger sister, Tang Cai'er, had reached level twenty in Soul Power.

Tang Weiwei planned to take her younger sister to the Sunset Great Forest to hunt soul beasts and obtain a soul ring.

Ron's soul masters naturally would not let such a perfect opportunity pass. Thus, Li Yuan came upon the scene he saw today.

Under normal circumstances, more than a dozen Soul Ancestors and Soul Elders, led by a Soul King, dealing with a Soul Ancestor and a newly promoted Soul Grandmaster—

It should have been an easy task. The Luon Family's soul masters could have captured the Tang sisters alive in a very short time, cleaned up the traces around them, fabricated evidence, and left without a trace.

Even if Spirit Hall discovered something was wrong afterward, they likely would not find any evidence. In the end, the matter would simply be dropped.

Unfortunately, the Luon Family's soul masters had poor luck. They happened to encounter a rather special Soul Elder like Li Yuan.

As a result, everything changed completely. The Luon Family's soul masters, who should have completed the task with ease, were wiped out instead, while the Tang sisters luckily escaped disaster.
