"Tang Yuehua, your father has already sold you to me; it is written clearly in black and white right here," Qian Xunji said, pulling out a booklet and opening it.
Tang Yuehua had excellent eyesight, and even from a foot away, she could clearly see the terms of the transaction within the booklet.
She could not believe this was real; her father and her second brother had sold her out for the sake of a mere 100,000-year-old soul beast.
What was even more laughable was that when she had been knocked unconscious, she was still thinking about making her assailant pay the price.
Little did she know that this person was the very one sent by her father.
Until now, Tang Yuehua did not know that the person who knocked her out was not sent by Tang Wei, but was Tang Wei himself.
If Tang Yuehua knew, one could only wonder what she would think.
Facing the booklet, Tang Yuehua lost her reason in a fit of desperation and lunged for it.
As long as she destroyed the booklet, the transaction would cease to exist; under her righteous indignation and threats, she was certain Qian Xunji would let her return to the Clear Sky Sect.
But how could her petty movements escape Qian Xunji? He did not give Tang Yuehua the slightest chance to touch the booklet.
Qian Xunji marveled, "Tang Yuehua, you are just like your father, Tang Wei—always capable of such laughable, 'brilliant' maneuvers."
"It seems you still fail to recognize your own position!"
"It appears I must teach you a lesson," Qian Xunji said, dragging Tang Yuehua into the Underground Palace of the Pope Palace.
Underground Palace.
Qian Xunji opened suite number three and shoved Tang Yuehua inside.
His strength was not insignificant, and Tang Yuehua stumbled and fell to the floor.
Qian Xunji took the opportunity to lock the door behind him.
Tang Yuehua retreated in terror, asking a question she already knew the answer to: "Qian Xunji, what do you want to do? You cannot act recklessly, or my father and my two brothers will never let you off."
"They only compromised with you temporarily."
"As long as you preserve my purity, I can speak for you in the future and have my father and two brothers spare you."
"What do I want to do?"
"Tang Yuehua, don't you already have the answer in your heart?"
"As for your father and brothers, rest assured, that day will never come; they are only fit to be trampled under my feet."
"Tang Yuehua, I will give you two choices now: either you go to the bed obediently and follow my demands."
"Or I will send you to a brothel in Heaven Dou City. I imagine the young masters of Heaven Dou City would be very interested in you and willing to spend a fortune to patronize you."
At the mere thought of herself in a brothel, Tang Yuehua's face turned deathly pale.
She stammered, "Qian Xunji, you... you are truly a scoundrel, a devil."
"Tang Yuehua, you are right; I am indeed a scoundrel. Rest assured, before I send you to the brothel, I will make sure you realize just how capable I am."
"I will give you ten seconds now."
"If you haven't given me an answer within ten seconds, you won't need to choose anymore; I will assume you want to go to the brothel."
"Begin, Tang Yuehua."
"One."
"Two."
"Three."
Tang Yuehua's heart was in turmoil.
"Four."
"Five."
"Six."
Tang Yuehua's internal struggle was intense.
"Seven."
"Tang Yuehua, I couldn't tell you were so fond of brothels!"
"Such a dignified exterior, yet such a wanton heart—tsk tsk, truly interesting."
"Eight."
As the word 'eight' left his lips, Tang Yuehua gritted her teeth and climbed onto the bed.
She truly did not want to go to a brothel.
If she went to a brothel, even if Qian Xunji died in the future, she would never be able to return to the Clear Sky Sect.
"Heh, Tang Yuehua, I actually thought you wanted to go to the brothel," Qian Xunji mocked with disdain.
Tang Yuehua felt utterly humiliated, yet she was powerless to retort.
Qian Xunji did not give Tang Yuehua a chance to think, immediately adding, "Tang Yuehua, let me see what makes you, the eldest miss of the Clear Sky Sect, any different from other women."
"Not only do I want to appreciate your external beauty, but I also want to appreciate your inner beauty."
"So, Tang Yuehua, get moving."
Tang Yuehua stood frozen in place, her heart in a state of intense struggle, yet she had ultimately reached this point.
She naturally understood the implication behind Qian Xunji's words.
Seeing that Tang Yuehua had not moved for a long time, Qian Xunji frowned and said, "Tang Yuehua, what are you still standing there for? Do you really want me to send you to a brothel?"
Tang Yuehua sighed inwardly, loosened her restraints, and revealed her proud figure.
"Not bad, Tang Yuehua, you have quite a lot to offer. It seems you pay close attention to cultivating this aspect."
"Truly, a single hand cannot cover it all!" Qian Xunji walked to Tang Yuehua's side, reached out directly, and squeezed her repeatedly.
He then lay down and commanded in an authoritative tone, "Tang Yuehua, what are you still standing there for?"
"Did you learn the court etiquette of the Heaven Dou Empire for nothing?"
Tang Yuehua's expression shifted once more, but she finally accepted reality, sighing internally as she submitted.
Douluo Continent, twenty miles outside of Martial Soul City.
"Hao'er, Hao'er, what is wrong? Wake up, I cannot lose you." Tang Wei's face was streaked with tears.
The Titan Giant Ape had escaped.
Tang Hao was severely injured and had fallen into a coma.
Tang Wei had never felt such hatred as he did now.
It must have been Qian Xunji's doing.
Damn Qian Xunji; he had already handed over Tang Yuehua, yet Qian Xunji still harbored malicious intent.
He had lost his daughter and suffered a defeat!
"Qian Xunji, I, Tang Wei, and the Clear Sky Sect will never stand under the same sky as you. You just wait; if I ever get the chance, I will surely hack you into ten thousand pieces!" Tang Wei roared at the sky, swearing an oath.
"Cough, cough, Father, stop shaking me. If you shake me any more, I really will die," Tang Hao said in a weak voice.
Hao'er!
Tang Wei immediately looked down to check on him, overjoyed, "That is great, Hao'er. As long as you are fine, that is all that matters."
"I will definitely make sure you recover."
Tang Feng, standing to the side, saw the situation and advised, "Sect Master, our top priority is to stabilize the Young Master's injuries!"
"The martial souls of the Qian Family also possess healing properties. Why don't we take the Young Master to see Qian Daoliu?"
"We will charge straight into Martial Soul City and go directly to the Worship Hall to see Qian Daoliu."
"We cannot let Qian Daoliu continue to play the coward. We will rush into Martial Soul City to find him and demand that he preside over justice for us."
"We have been cheated so miserably by Qian Xunji."
"Furthermore, since the Young Lady was just taken away by Qian Xunji, he must be with her right now."
"He has no time to pay attention to us."
"Sect Master, this is our best opportunity. We must not miss it. We have paid such a heavy price; we cannot walk away without gaining anything!"
Tang Wei did not have time to think it over, but he felt that what Tang Feng said made perfect sense. He immediately agreed, "Tang Feng, your words are very reasonable. While Qian Xunji is too busy to mind us, we will enter the city to find Qian Daoliu."
"Qian Xunji must have used some kind of method within Martial Soul City; otherwise, it would be impossible for Qian Daoliu not to have heard my cries."
"Qian Daoliu is a man of integrity. As long as he hears my pleas, he will certainly not sit idly by. He will absolutely not shield Qian Xunji."
"Let's go." Tang Wei made a swift decision, picked up Tang Hao, and galloped toward Martial Soul City.
Martial Soul City, Pope Palace.
Underground Palace.
Qian Xunji muttered to himself, "Why has Tang Wei returned?"
"Tang Hao is so severely injured!"
"That shouldn't be. Even if the Titan Giant Ape had fully recovered from its injuries, it would be nearly impossible for it to wound Tang Hao to this extent!"
"It seems there is something fishy going on."
