After seeing off the "grandmaster" Yu Xiaogang, Lin Qian chatted with Tang San a little longer.
Tang San suddenly asked him a question. "Captain, where do you want to go after the tournament?"
Looking at a certain San's expectant eyes, Lin Qian guessed what he wanted to say and was deeply moved, then refused (without a ripple of emotion). "I'm an Earl personally appointed by the emperor, and my uncle is the Minister of Internal Affairs. Where else could I go besides staying in the Heaven Dou Empire?"
He sounded so melancholy that Tang San's heart ached for him (not really), and he blurted out involuntarily, "You can come with me!"
Some strange attribute had increased...
Lin Qian looked at him, genuinely astonished. I clearly haven't done anything, have I? How did he become so utterly devoted? But on second thought, he felt at ease again.
Setting aside his identity as Lin Qian, how could Tang San and Li Si not count as good brothers~
Barely able to hold back his laughter, he found an excuse to slip away and ran off at top speed.
Watching Li Si (Lin Qian) leave, Tang San wondered why his shoulders kept shaking (with laughter), but still maintained the self-discipline of a proper little brother and saw his big brother off with his eyes.
Only after he had gone did Tang San silently ponder-
Although Li Si talked back to Teacher (Yu Xiaogang), he was right. He's already an Earl of the Heaven Dou Empire, so how could he possibly join another faction? Whether it's the Clear Sky Sect or Spirit Hall, this hatred is irreconcilable. We cannot live beneath the same sky!
With one more target of hatred than in the original story, Tang San felt much lighter after making up his mind.
