Tang Wei, Thinking He's Clever

Tang Weiwei.

Tang Yuehua.

One is a sect elder.

The other is his daughter.

Tang Wei fell into a struggle.

Suddenly, a treacherous thought sprouted in his mind, and he spoke, "Qian Xunji, I will sell Tang Yuehua to you."

"However, you must first let my son Tang Hao absorb the soul ring of that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast."

"It is nearly dead; I do not want to lose my daughter and end up with nothing to show for it."

Qian Xunji shook his head, refusing, "That won't do, Sect Master Tang. I do not trust you. If you go back on your word, who am I supposed to reason with?"

"Bring Tang Yuehua here first, then we shall talk."

"When the time comes, we will trade Tang Yuehua for the Titan Giant Ape."

"As for the beast's injuries, you need not worry. I can ensure it stays alive for another ten or fifteen days."

"Ten or fifteen days is more than enough time for you to bring Tang Yuehua back."

"Or is it, Sect Master Tang, that you have no sincerity at all and are merely trying to get something for nothing?" Qian Xunji's eyes flashed with a fierce light, as if telling Tang Wei: Try refusing and see what happens!

Tang Wei was truly intimidated by Qian Xunji's vicious gaze, and he was forced to consider the terms Qian Xunji had proposed.

After all, Tang Wei truly did not want to give up the possibility of Tang Hao advancing further.

Now, he could only let his daughter, Tang Yuehua, suffer for a while. She had enjoyed the resources and status of the Clear Sky Sect for so many years; it was time for her to make some contributions to the sect.

Qian Xunji was right. Trading a "useless" person for a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast was indeed a deal where he would profit without any loss.

Furthermore, he wasn't asking Tang Yuehua to stay with Qian Xunji forever. He only needed Tang Hao to become a Super Douluo and head to Slaughter City to retrieve his father. Once that was done, they could demand justice from Martial Soul Hall and bring Tang Yuehua back.

Tang Wei looked at Qian Xunji and agreed, "Fine, Qian Xunji. I will give Tang Yuehua to you, but you must guarantee that this soul beast remains alive."

Seeing this, Tang Hao wanted to speak up and stop it, but the moment he thought of how much Ah Yin would suffer if he didn't, he chose to remain silent.

After all, how could his younger sister compare to Ah Yin?

"Sect Master Tang, hurry off then. I will ensure the Titan Giant Ape survives," Qian Xunji waved his hand, urging him.

"Five elders, keep a close watch on Qian Xunji. Do not let him pull any tricks," Tang Wei instructed before leaving.

At this moment, Tang Yuehua was not at the Clear Sky Sect, but was pursuing advanced studies at the Heaven Dou Royal Etiquette Academy.

Martial Soul City was not very far from Heaven Dou City.

It took Tang Wei one day to reach Heaven Dou City.

Douluo Continent, Heaven Dou Empire.

Heaven Dou City.

After entering Heaven Dou City, Tang Wei headed straight for the Heaven Dou Royal Etiquette Academy.

Etiquette Academy.

After entering the academy, Tang Wei did not alert anyone. He intended to quietly knock Tang Yuehua unconscious, abduct her, and deliver her to Qian Xunji.

In this way, Tang Yuehua would only believe that Qian Xunji had sent people to take her from Heaven Dou City, rather than her own father being the one to strike.

Tang Wei had always kept an eye on Tang Yuehua, even after she came to Heaven Dou City and enrolled in the Heaven Dou Royal Etiquette Academy.

Therefore, Tang Wei knew exactly where Tang Yuehua was.

Ten minutes later.

Tang Wei appeared at Tang Yuehua's residence.

At this moment, Tang Yuehua was studying noble etiquette and did not notice that someone had entered her room.

By the time she realized it, her vision went black, and she was thoroughly knocked unconscious by Tang Wei.

Before losing consciousness, Tang Yuehua felt both furious and terrified.

She was furious because she was a princess of the Clear Sky Sect; who could be so bold as to dare harbor designs on her?

She was terrified because, although she was a princess of the Clear Sky Sect, she had failed to inherit the Clear Sky Hammer and was unable to break through to the tenth level in her entire life.

If the person who knocked her out had ulterior motives, she would be unable to escape her grim fate today, and her purity would be ruined.

She was filled with unwillingness, yet she was helpless.

Because she had already slipped into unconsciousness.

Douluo Continent, Martial Soul City.

A day later, estimating that Tang Wei would soon return, Qian Xunji walked toward the Titan Giant Ape.

"Qian Xunji, what do you think you're doing? Don't even think about pulling any tricks!" Tang Hao hurriedly called out to stop him. He knew Qian Xunji's character all too well and was certain he wouldn't hand over the Titan Giant Ape so easily.

Qian Xunji looked slightly speechless. "What am I doing?"

"I'm obviously helping you check on the Titan Giant Ape's injuries. He's barely breathing as it is. If he dies and you can't absorb the spirit ring, don't blame me—after all, you were the one who tried to stop me."

Tang Hao's expression shifted slightly. "Qian Xunji, I don't trust you. Why don't you just let me kill the Titan Giant Ape now and absorb the spirit ring?"

"Wait until my father brings my sister here, and I will hand her over to you personally, but on the condition that you stop tormenting Ah Yin so severely from now on."

"Spare me that," Qian Xunji flatly refused. "Who knows if you and Tang Wei didn't plan this out beforehand?"

"I don't intend to lose the spirit beast and end up with nothing. My terms remain the same: one hand for the person, one hand for the spirit beast. We'll talk once your father brings Tang Yuehua here."

"Of course, if Tang Weiwei is willing to contribute to her young master and become my slave, I would welcome that with both hands and feet."

"Tang Weiwei, are you willing to make a contribution for your young master, Tang Hao?" Qian Xunji stared straight at Tang Weiwei once more.

Tang Weiwei was fuming inside!

But the moment she thought of Tang Wei's authority, and the fact that she truly couldn't defeat Qian Xunji, she instantly wilted.

If she ruined things for Tang Wei and Tang Hao, those two might actually sell her to Qian Xunji.

After all, Tang Yuehua was their true kin, while she was merely from a collateral branch who happened to have an ancestral spirit awakening, manifesting the Clear Sky Hammer.

Tang Weiwei remained silent.

Having lost interest in teasing Tang Weiwei further, Qian Xunji looked at Tang Hao once more and gave a final warning:

"Tang Hao, listen well: it was you who stopped me from treating the Titan Giant Ape. If he dies, don't blame me. Once Tang Yuehua arrives, you will have to go through with the trade whether you want to or not."

Under the eaves, one must bow their head. Tang Hao gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, Qian Xunji, I'll trust you this once."

"If you dare pull any petty tricks, I will be your sworn enemy to the end."

How foolish, Tang Hao. You and I have already been sworn enemies for a long time.

Qian Xunji mocked him internally as he walked toward the Titan Giant Ape and unleashed his fifth spirit skill—Light Healing.

Golden light enveloped the Titan Giant Ape, and the internal injuries within its body began to recover rapidly.

At the same time, Qian Xunji secretly transmitted his voice: "Titan Giant Ape, if you don't want to die, don't move. I have only healed a portion of your internal injuries."

"As for whether you survive, that depends on your own fortune."

"When Tang Hao comes to kill you, that will be your best chance to strike."

Although the Titan Giant Ape didn't know why Qian Xunji was helping him, he knew how to take advice!

He continued to feign unconsciousness.

"Qian Xunji, that's enough! If you keep healing him, you'll have him back to full health!" Tang Hao hurriedly shouted to stop him; he had no desire to go through the misery of gang-beating the Titan Giant Ape all over again.

A day later, Tang Wei brought Tang Yuehua to Martial Soul City.

Tang Yuehua remained in a state of unconsciousness.

"Qian Xunji, here. I've brought the person to you. I can take the spirit beast now, right?"

Qian Xunji took hold of Tang Yuehua, examining her beautiful face, and frowned slightly as he asked, "Why is she unconscious?"
