Tang Chen Follows Qian Daoliu

The next day, in the morning.

Qian Daoliu gathered his entourage in the Pope's Palace.

The two worshippers are the brothers Qian Jun and Jiang Mo.

The five elders are: Demon Bear, Black Tiger, Mad Saber, Pufferfish, and Snake Lance.

With the addition of Qian Daoliu, the eight of them are enough to sweep away any sect on the continent.

Qian Daoliu looked at them and said in a deep voice, "Everyone understands what happened during this trip, right?"

"We come to Sea God Island with the sincerity of friendly exchange, but we cannot lose our composure in front of them and let them look down on the Spirit Hall."

"A friendly exchange of blows might actually facilitate trade with Sea God Island. So, we should be polite when necessary, but when it's inappropriate, we must not let the Spirit Hall lose face."

Qian Jun and the other six bowed and said, "We respectfully obey the Grand Worshipper's orders!"

After they finished speaking, Gui Mei stepped forward with a notebook and said, "Grand Worshipper, Lin Fan's analysis of Sea God Island's strength last night has been recorded in this notebook."

"One Grand Worshipper, the Seven Sacred Pillars' strongest member is only a level 95 Titled Douluo, the rest are all between level 91 and 94, plus a guardian sea Sea Soul Beast, a 100,000-year-old Demon Soul Great White Shark."

Qian Xunji then said, "Father, all the supplies are in these two Space Soul Tool."

Yue Guan then spoke up, "The Grand Worshipper has already prepared a sea vessel at the port of Vast Sea City overnight, which is being guarded by the local Sub-Hall bishop."

Qian Daoliu nodded, then took the notebook and two bracelet-like Space Soul Tool, glanced at them briefly, and put them into his own Space Soul Tool.

He then turned to Golden Crocodile and instructed, "Second brother, you will be in charge of guarding the Worship Hall for the time being. If Tang Chen comes looking for me, tell him I'm in seclusion."

Golden Crocodile cupped his hands and said, "Brother, don't worry, with me here, not even a fly will be around, except for Tang Chen."

Qian Daoliu said no more.

"Set off!"

Upon reaching the entrance of the Pope's Palace, Qian Daoliu took the lead and soared into the sky, followed by Qian Jun and the others.

The eight people transformed into streaks of light and flew into the sky.

In a tavern in Spirit City, a towering figure sat by the window, drinking. He looked up and smiled slightly.

"I knew Old Qian were up to something, you little rascal. I've known you for so many years, and you still think you can hide it from me?"

"Then let me see what you're up to."

Tang Chen then downed half a glass of wine in one gulp, put down the glass, and followed him away.

Three days later, the people in the sky saw the vast ocean outside the port of Vast Sea City.

Qian Daoliu and his group landed outside Vast Sea City.

Tang Chen waited until they entered the city before landing outside.

"Vast Sea City?"

"What are you doing here, Old Qian, bringing seven Titled Douluo with you? Are you going out to sea?"

"There shouldn't be Spirit Hall at sea, so the Spirit Hall has made a new discovery?"

"It's quite interesting that Old Qian has been in seclusion for many years would personally take action," Tang Chen thought to himself, and followed.

Tang Chen followed Qian Daoliu to the port.

The bishop of the Sub-Hall, dressed in a silver-white robe, stepped forward to greet them, "Greetings, Your Excellencies. The ship is ready, and there are five sailors with it."

All eyes turned to the massive ship, weighing tens of tons, on the shore. Except for Qian Daoliu, the others jumped aboard.

Qian Jun turned around and asked, "Grand Worshipper, what's wrong?"

Qian Daoliu didn't answer, but instead said to the person behind him, "Tang Chen, we need to board the ship. Are you sure you want to continue hiding?"

"Haha." A hearty laugh rang out from behind Qian Daoliu. "As expected, I couldn't hide anything from you, Old Qian."

Tang Chen walked up to Qian Daoliu and tentatively asked, "Old Qian, what's the matter that requires you to personally lead a mission? And at sea, could it be that you've discovered a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in the sea?"

"Hmph." Qian Daoliu couldn't help but sneer, "I didn't expect that you, this usually carefree cultivation fanatic, would actually be in Spirit City all this time."

Didn't you go back to the Clear Sky Sect?

"Hey..." Tang Chen grinned and said, "I did leave Spirit City, but then I thought, you're definitely up to no good, so I came back."

"And then, just a few days later, you actually led a team out, and seven Titled Douluo at once! What a grand gesture."

"I knew you were hiding something from me, and now I've caught you."

Qian Daoliu asked speechlessly, "How did you figure that out?"

Tang Chen stepped forward and put his arm around Qian Daoliu's shoulder, saying, "I've known you for at least seventy or eighty years, if not a hundred. I know exactly what you're saying. You think you can hide it from me?"

"Go away," Qian Daoliu said helplessly, pushing Tang Chen's arm away. "Still so vulgar."

At the same time, Qian Daoliu felt extremely helpless.

He never expected that Tang Chen, who had left Spirit City, would return to the city and even start monitoring him.

"Lin Fan's words are really strange; they're clearly different from the original story. But in the end, Tang Chen still followed."

"Tang Chen is now determined and clearly believes I have a problem. He's sticking to me closely, so it won't be easy to fool him."

"So, the fact that I went to the island with Tang Chen hasn't changed."

"Damn... when did Tang Chen become so shrewd? Is this really the Tang Chen I know?"

Tang Chen nudged Qian Daoliu, "Hey, Old Qian, you're not thinking of fooling me right now, are you?"

"Let me tell you, no way, unless you defeat me!"

As soon as Tang Chen finished speaking, he jumped onto the ship, crossed his arms behind his head, and looked at Qian Daoliu defiantly with an expression that said, "What can you do to me?"

Qian Daoliu speechless: So the fine traditions of Tang Hao and Tang San have been passed down to Tang Chen; he's still as shameless as ever.

Qian Jun and the others stared blankly at Tang Chen, then their gazes turned to Qian Daoliu.

Qian Daoliu had no choice but to board the boat as well, and said helplessly, "Let's set sail!"

Qian Jun and Jiang Mo stood on the other side, occasionally glancing over, but not daring to come closer.

The other five elders each found a seat and took their places.

After a while, the Vast Sea City gradually shrank and eventually disappeared at the edge of the ocean.

Qian Daoliu stood with his hands behind his back, staring straight ahead. Bored, Tang Chen leaned closer. "Old Qian, now it's time to tell you, what are you two doing all this time?"

"Hunting a 100,000-year-old Sea Soul Beast, or searching for a certain island?"

Qian Daoliu sighed, "Alright, I knew I couldn't hide it from you. Actually, I went to propose marriage."

"Proposing marriage... you're proposing marriage?" Tang Chen was clearly taken aback, then burst into laughter. "That's hilarious!"

"You're not Old Qian, you're over a hundred years old, and you're already proposing marriage? Are you even capable, haha..."

"You should come up with a good reason, like proposing marriage, haha... How did you even think of that?"

"Old Qian, I never knew you were so funny before, haha...!"

Qian Daoliu curled his lip and thought to himself, "Laugh, go ahead and laugh."

Lin Fan said, "Tang Chen and I are both pursuing Bo Saixi. I'm cutting off his line now, let's see how Tang Chen will have the nerve to compete with me."

Therefore, Qian Daoliu remained unmoved by Tang Chen's laughter, merely observing coldly.

Tang Chen stopped laughing when he saw that Qian Daoliu did not react to his laughter.

"No, you really went to propose marriage!"
