Of course, all of this could be explained by saying Xiao Wu was a mentally retarded child who simply hadn't thought that far!

Xiao Wu had long since figured out how to cover up the matter of obtaining a Soul Ring, yet she somehow couldn't think of caring about Tang San's life or death!

But from Tang San's perspective, his love clearly wasn't that deep either. He shouted that even if he died, he would save Xiao Wu first!

But what actually happened? When the Titan Giant Ape took her away, why didn't you, Tang San, fulfill your promise: "If you want to hurt Xiao Wu, step over my corpse first"?

And when you went after the Titan Giant Ape later, you encountered a Man Faced Demon Spider. Why were you fighting it?

Your Xiao Wu had been taken away and might die, yet when you ran into a Man Faced Demon Spider, you started fighting it?

Fine, you could say the Man Faced Demon Spider came after you first, that you couldn't escape and could only kill it before anything else. That was reasonable enough!

But after killing it, you still had to recover from your injuries first? Do you know how much time that would take?

Fine, recover from your injuries. Then, while recovering, you ran into Meng Yiran and the other two, and you stood there chatting with them, explaining a whole bunch of things!

Alright, explaining and chatting was understandable too. After all, you needed to stay alive, and they weren't fond of you either. That was normal as well.

But then Zhao Wuji and the others arrived. They could temporarily hold off the Dragon Snake Couple for you, yet you still agreed to compete with Meng Yiran in Hidden Weapons?

No, Xiao Sanzi? Just because someone wanted to compete with you, you had to agree? Weren't you supposed to save Xiao Wu? Did you not want your Xiao Wu anymore?

You said that if you refused the competition, the Dragon Snake Couple wouldn't leave? Bullshit! The plot explicitly stated that the Dragon Snake Couple were about to leave immediately; Meng Yiran was the one who wanted the competition!

The Dragon Snake Couple hadn't even agreed to it, and you accepted first? You were prepared to waste a pile of time competing with Meng Yiran?

Good, good, good. Once the competition was over, surely you could go save Xiao Wu, right?

No! I still had to flirt with girls! I still had to give Meng Yiran Flying Needles, teach her Hidden Weapon techniques, and banter flirtatiously with her for a while!

Once the Dragon Snake Couple finally left with Meng Yiran, and you had recovered some Soul Power, surely now you could save Xiao Wu, right?

No! Such an excellent Soul Ring from a Man Faced Demon Spider—could I possibly waste it? Could Xiao Wu's life or death compare to the Man Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring?

Tang San's choice was: don't rush. Absorb the Man Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring first. It might take ten-odd minutes, it might take an hour—absorb it first, then talk...

By the time you finished absorbing it, Xiao Wu would have already been chopped into minced meat and eaten, wouldn't she?

If Xiao Wu herself hadn't been immune to harm, and you replaced her with an ordinary Soul Master who had been captured, could that ordinary Soul Master still have survived under a Soul Beast after you, Tang San, wasted so much time?

Some of those delays had been unavoidable for Tang San. But some were delays he chose himself! Don't tell me the later competition and absorbing the Soul Ring were forced on you by someone else?

That idiotic bitch Xiao Wu still thought Tang San cared so much about her, that he was so devoted to her!

When you thought about it carefully, she wasn't even worth as much as a Man Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring...

Of course, Tang San's yes-men could still say: "Aiya, Tang San wanted to absorb the Soul Ring so he'd have a better chance of saving her~"

Bullshit! A better chance of saving her? After wasting so much time, he had a better chance of collecting Xiao Wu's corpse, right?!

It was one thing for Xiao Wu not to know, but Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing were watching right there. They actually thought Tang San had demonstrated his feelings for Xiao Wu in this matter.

Fuck! This counted as love? Were all the women at Shrek blind? Were they all Low IQ idiots?!

Was Shrek so poor that they'd rented out their brains and had no money to redeem them?!

By this point, Song Ye himself felt sick.

So many people used this part of the plot to claim that Tang San was sincere toward Xiao Wu.

Fine, even if he had been sincere, he immediately agreed to the competition afterward. Once it was over, he taught Meng Yiran Hidden Weapon techniques, then actively chose to absorb the Soul Ring.

None of that was fake, was it?

Those were all Tang San's own choices, weren't they? He had exercised his own subjective initiative, hadn't he?

His own wife had been captured. Even delaying for a few seconds could mean the difference between life and death, yet under those circumstances, he chose to flirt with girls first and absorb a Soul Ring first.

Good, good, good. If this counted as love, then that love was truly "pure"!

After watching such a sharp review, the rest of the audience was completely dumbfounded.

They roughly knew the plot. Xiao Wu had been captured by the Titan Giant Ape, and Tang San was supposed to save her.

But who could have expected that saving someone could involve delaying over so many things?

Every linked woman felt nothing but nausea!

[Bibi Dong]: "As expected of the hypocritical Tang Family members! They talked about love, but in reality, he still wanted to show off in front of other women first! When he encountered the Dragon Snake Couple, couldn't he have had Zhao Wuji hold them back while he ran off to save her?" [Demon Fox]: "Exactly. What a disgusting man! He kept saying he had to find Xiao Wu, yet he kept choosing ways to waste time!" [Wo Shi Gu'er]: "Because in reality, the moment this man discovered how good the Man Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring was, he forgot all about that Xiao Wu Soul Beast~" [Yanyan Deyi]: "What a disgusting man! Think carefully about how many things he delayed over. If it had been an ordinary woman, she would have been eaten by a Soul Beast long ago! Yet he was still absorbing a Soul Ring?" [Bingbing Youli]: "The time needed to absorb a Soul Ring is determined by its difficulty. If it is especially difficult and one can endure it, taking one or two hours is entirely possible." [Bingbing Youli]: "Tang San clearly knew how powerful and difficult the Man Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring was to absorb, yet he still chose to absorb it. He knew it would delay even more time, yet he still chose it. This showed that this love was not as pure as he claimed." [Hot Girl]: "Hey, didn't the Light Screen say earlier that this Tang San made Xiao Wu a promise: 'If you want to step over him, Tang San's corpse'? He never fulfilled it, right? This was the first time. How many more times do you think there'll be afterward?" [Demon Fox]: "At least two or three times. A hypocritical man like this is the best at deceiving women... He talks nicely, but every time he lets the woman get hurt first!" [Bibi Dong]: "This is Yu Xiaogang's disciple. This is what Tang Family members are like!" [Hai Shen Zui Zhongcheng De Xintu]: "Why are Tang Family members all like this... Could even That person be the same? Sigh... I hope this is only the nature of some Tang Family members."

The Female Characters discussed it one after another. It was clear to all of them that Tang San did not love Xiao Wu as much as he claimed.

Even if he did feel love for her, even if Xiao Wu was the woman he loved most, she still could not surpass his own interests.

Loving oneself and loving only one woman were not contradictory.

Tang San was probably that kind of man. He undoubtedly loved Xiao Wu too; it was simply that his own interests mattered more than his beloved.

As Xiao Wu watched the Light Screen's sharp review and listened to everyone's discussion, she roughly understood that principle as well.

It was not that Tang San did not love her. It was simply that he loved his own interests more...
