Xiao Wu and Tang San had always been inseparable.

Everyone else from Shrek was here, but Xiao Wu alone was absent, making Fang Xuan frown slightly.

"Damn, I forgot about that!"

Xiao Wu was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast who had taken human form. Before reaching Rank 70, any Title Douluo-level expert could see through her disguise.

In the original story, the main reason Xiao Wu had not been discovered was because the Lovesick Heartbreak Red had concealed her aura.

Now, the Lovesick Heartbreak Red was in his hands. Xiao Wu had no item on her to conceal her aura, and because of him, the people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had brought everyone from Shrek to Heaven Dou City.

Just a few days ago, he had even seen Flender and Zhao Wuji moving about the academy. He had heard they were now instructors at Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

"Don't tell me that rabbit got slaughtered?"

A hundred-thousand-year soul ring and soul bone—even Title Douluos could not help but be tempted by treasures of that caliber.

However, Fang Xuan quickly dismissed that possibility. After all, if Xiao Wu were killed now, the hundred-thousand-year soul ring would go to waste.

There was no one in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect capable of absorbing a hundred-thousand-year soul ring.

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo already had complete sets of soul rings, while Ning Fengzhi himself was already a seven-ring Soul Sage. Due to the nature of his martial soul, he could not advance to Soul Douluo, so naturally he could not absorb another soul ring.

Ning Rongrong's soul power seemed to have only recently broken through Rank 30, and she was still some distance from Rank 40.

Even at Rank 40, she would not be able to withstand the spiritual backlash from absorbing a hundred-thousand-year soul ring. In other words, Xiao Wu was still alive and, most likely, imprisoned.

"As long as she isn't dead, there's still room to work with."

Fang Xuan's martial soul was too special. As far as he was concerned, he was not picky about soul rings.

It was just that hundred-thousand-year soul beasts were hard to find and even harder to deal with.

Most of the ones he knew of were beyond his current reach, though there were always exceptions.

For example, Xiao Wu, who had taken human form, and the Blue Silver Emperor hidden away by Tang Hao.

The Blue Silver Emperor was difficult to touch with Tang Hao guarding it, but Xiao Wu was another matter.

As long as he found an opportunity, she would definitely die.

He was now very close to obtaining his sixth ring. It was time to plan carefully.

"Miss Dugu Yan, this matter seems to have nothing to do with you. Besides, we haven't said anything at all so far. Isn't it a bit excessive for you to maliciously slander us like this?"

Faced with Dugu Yan's humiliation, Tang San's expression remained calm. However, his gaze did not fall on Dugu Yan, but instead on Fang Xuan, who stood beside Ye Lingling.

"Interesting. Looks like they came for me."

That explained it. No wonder he had not seen them before, only for all of them to suddenly appear here at once. They had been waiting for him.

But had they gotten cocky, or had the lesson he gave them last time not been harsh enough?

Fang Xuan did not know what Tang San was thinking now, but he had a feeling that Tang San had come prepared.

As for what Tang San had prepared, Fang Xuan did not even need to think about it. It was one hundred percent hidden weapons.

"Excessive? Why didn't you think it was excessive when you were insulting people last time?"

"And where did this pretty boy crawl out from? Since when was it your turn to speak to me?"

Dugu Yan did not know Tang San. Coupled with her naturally straightforward temperament, she immediately fired back.

What a joke. They had bullied her best friend—did they really think she had such a good temper?

At worst, she would beat Ning Rongrong up right here. She refused to believe they would truly dare do anything to her.

"My name is Tang San. I am Miss Ning Rongrong's fiancé, not some pretty boy as you call me."

The moment those words came out, the entire crowd was stunned.

Even Fang Xuan froze on the spot.

"Fuck! Am I hearing things?"

"Tang San became Ning Rongrong's fiancé? Then what about Oscar? What about Xiao Wu?"

This plot was wrong. How had Tang San gotten together with Ning Rongrong?

Fang Xuan felt his head buzzing, unable to accept this reality for a moment.

His gaze unconsciously shifted to Oscar, who stood motionless nearby. A trace of loneliness and unwillingness flashed across his face.

Clearly, Tang San's words were not baseless. That was simply the truth.

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect sure knows how to play."

It seemed Tang Hao must have made contact with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Given that old fox Ning Fengzhi's personality, he had probably set his sights on Tang Hao himself.

The title of Clear Sky Douluo was no joke. Tang San was his son, so Ning Rongrong marrying him would not be beneath her—if anything, it could be considered a well-matched union.

Twin Martial Souls, Innate Full Soul Power, along with hidden weapon crafting techniques and the Tang Sect's secret cultivation methods.

With talent like that, it was perfectly reasonable for them to favor him.

If Fang Xuan were Ning Fengzhi and had to choose between Tang San and Oscar, Tang San would undoubtedly be the choice.

No matter how talented Oscar was, he was still only a food-type soul master. What the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect needed were battle-type soul masters capable of protecting the sect, and Oscar clearly did not meet that standard.

Furthermore, because of this early return, Ning Rongrong and Oscar had not built much of an emotional foundation between them at all.

In short, his appearance had led to the current situation.

Fang Xuan quickly sorted through the matter and arrived at the most reasonable conclusion.

"Interesting. I'd like to see what tricks you can pull."

Fang Xuan remained calm, standing to the side without saying a word.

"Fiancé?"

Dugu Yan sized Tang San up and down once more. Seeing nothing remarkable about him, she frowned slightly as well.

"What does that have to do with me? It's a quarrel between women—what's a man like you jumping in for?"

"You're skinny as a bamboo pole. Why don't you learn from the guy beside you? He knows not to meddle. What, trying to show off how capable you are?"

"Come to think of it, doesn't the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect only take in sons-in-law? What's there for a live-in son-in-law like you to show off about?"

Dugu Yan's firepower was fully unleashed as she bombarded Tang San with one jab after another.

Faced with such ridicule, even Tang San, no matter how composed he was, frowned slightly.

However, he still chose not to argue too much with Dugu Yan. After all, he had not come here to trade insults with her.

Ignoring Dugu Yan, Tang San turned his gaze toward Fang Xuan and Ye Lingling.

"Long time no see, you two."

Tang San spoke calmly, a faint smile on his face, as though greeting old friends he had not seen in a long time.

"If you've got something to say, say it. If not, get lost. Are we that familiar?"

The moment Fang Xuan opened his mouth, he made no effort whatsoever to save Tang San any face.

After all, kind words were for one's own people, not trash like the one in front of him.

"Damn! He's even fiercer than I am."

Dugu Yan had not expected Fang Xuan to be even more blunt than her. He usually looked so gentle.

She had never seen Fang Xuan when he fought. Ever since meeting him, he had seemed to have a mild temper all along. The most excessive thing he had ever done was force-feeding her PDA right in front of her.

This was the first time she had seen him like this.

Ye Lingling, standing beside him, was also somewhat surprised by Fang Xuan's attitude, though only somewhat. After all, she had personally witnessed how Fang Xuan fought.

It seemed that last time, it had been this same group of people as well.

"Don't give me that fake crap. We're all adults—if you have something to say, say it directly. Who are you putting on this act for?"
