"You just pick on him? So you appearing in Qian Renxue's dream is somehow Qian Renxue's fault?"
"Tang San, haven't you heard the saying, 'He who provokes first is a scoundrel'?"
Xiao Wu spoke angrily, bringing this up.
Her face was full of coldness and disdain.
Seeing her like this, Tang San naturally couldn't sit still.
He immediately started to argue in his own defense.
"He who provokes first is a scoundrel?!
Xiao Wu, how can you say that about me? This is Bibi Dong's Angel God Trial, what does it have to do with me? Can I control whether she likes me?"
Tang San replied.
This time, he sounded extremely wronged.
But hearing him say that,
Xiao Wu didn't seem swayed.
Instead, a cold sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
After a moment of silence, she didn't even wait for him to speak again.
Ning Rongrong, standing beside her, had already spoken first, taking over the conversation.
She angrily complained to Tang San on Xiao Wu's behalf, saying,
"Tang San, isn't it a bit too fake for you to act wronged now? Do you really think we don't remember anything? Others might not remember what happened in Qian Renxue's life story, but we remember it clearly."
As she spoke, Zhu Zhuqing, who had been silent, immediately chimed in to agree.
"Exactly! If the previous encounters were just accidents, then what about later? When you helped Qian Renxue pass the Seagod Nine Trials and the Slaughter City, do you dare say you didn't have any unusual thoughts about her the entire time?"
"Do you really dare to point to the sky and solemnly declare that you have a clear conscience?!"
"You don't even need to swear to us.
How about this, let's make a bet? The heavenly curtain will continue to pick lucky audience members later.
If any of our Shrek Seven Devils are chosen, we'll publicly ask about this in front of the heavenly curtain. Do you dare to gamble with us on this? If you lose, no matter what request you make, I'll obediently comply, how about that?"
The two spoke back and forth, and by the end, they solemnly presented their challenge to Tang San.
When this so-called bet was actually spoken aloud,
Tang San's face immediately turned pale.
He wanted to say something more,
but the words seemed to be stuck in his throat, unable to come out.
After all, he knew his own situation.
He clearly couldn't guarantee that he hadn't felt even a little bit moved by Qian Renxue the entire time.
He was even more afraid that if he set a flag now,
it would be exposed by the heavenly curtain later, publicly humiliating him in front of all the Douluo Continent spectators.
The more he thought about it,
the more concerns he had.
His brows couldn't help but furrow.
The words on the tip of his tongue just wouldn't come out.
"I…"
After a long period of stammering,
he could only wave his hand and pretend to be angry, reprimanding them.
"I have no desire to gamble with you all, what's the point?"
"No matter what I say, you still don't believe me!"
"We've been friends for so many years, and you still don't trust my character? What else is there to say?"
After saying this, he turned his head away, looking unwilling to engage further with the others.
Hearing him say this, Tang San's good brothers, Oscar and Ma Hongjun, immediately nodded in agreement.
"Exactly! If you don't believe others, don't you believe Brother San?"
"If you ask me, you're just giving Qian Renxue too much credit. Yes, she is indeed excellent, and she will become the so-called Angel God in the future. But don't forget the heights Brother San will reach in the future.
He is a true ascended being in the Douluo Continent! They say a fair lady is a gentleman's good match. Isn't it the same in reverse?
For an excellent man like Brother San to be silently liked by Qian Renxue, isn't that a very normal thing?
Perhaps, like Liu Erlong in the parallel World, it was her own unrequited love the entire time, her own fantasy, you never know."
After the two finished speaking, Ning Rongrong and the others didn't show much change in expression.
Instead, Liu Erlong, who was standing beside them, turned pale.
…
?!?
Talk all you want.
Why bring me into this?
I'm truly speechless…
…
Liu Erlong thought.
At this moment, she was cursing inwardly.
However, the one whose face was extremely grim at this moment was not Liu Erlong.
It was Qian Renxue, who was currently at the border of the Heaven Dou Empire, having only recently recovered her vitality.
"Oscar!"
"Ma Hongjun!"
She spoke this time, carefully noting down these people's names and appearances.
Her expression was icy and indifferent.
She was like a judge presiding over death sentences, striking names off the ledger of life and death,
preparing the final list for execution.
In reality, it wasn't just a similar demeanor.
At this moment, Qian Renxue was truly filled with killing intent.
She stood up this time, not even bothering with her injuries that hadn't fully healed.
She strode towards Shrek Academy.
She clearly intended to personally make a return attack.
She wouldn't rest until she personally dealt with these disrespectful individuals.
However, at this moment, she had just taken a step and hadn't truly set off.
She was pulled back by Bibi Dong's hand.
"Don't be impulsive, Qian Renxue!"
Bibi Dong's expression was serious.
As she spoke, her eyes and brows were filled with concern.
Seeing her expression, Qian Renxue was stunned.
However, when she came back to her senses, she seemed to have misunderstood something.
"Why, Mother?"
"Do you still have lingering feelings for Yu Xiaogang even now?"
She then spoke even more seriously, explaining to Bibi Dong,
"Even if that's the case, it won't affect much. Because I don't plan to lay a hand on Yu Xiaogang right now. The ones I truly intend to execute are Tang San and his gang of scoundrels!"
By the end of her words, besides confusion, there was also a hint of anger.
She clearly felt that her mother was overly blinded by love.
Seeing her reaction, Bibi Dong naturally didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
She immediately spoke, with a hint of playful anger, asking the other party,
"What are you thinking, girl? Do you really believe that even now, after I've understood Yu Xiaogang's true nature, I still have lingering feelings for him?"
"In your heart, is your mother really that infatuated with love?"
Seeing her appearance,
Qian Renxue's face naturally showed a hint of surprise.
She immediately spoke, asking again,
"It's not that reason? Then what is it??"
Bibi Dong naturally knew that Qian Renxue wasn't deliberately mocking her.
So this time, she didn't overly blame the other party.
She then repeated the explanation she had given to Hu Liena and the others to Qian Renxue.
She clearly stated that she wasn't preventing Qian Renxue from killing Tang San because he was an old acquaintance's disciple and she felt reluctant.
Instead, she simply felt that Tang San still had great utilitarian value.
After calming down, Qian Renxue naturally showed a hint of shame on her face.
After a moment of silence, she spoke again, taking the initiative to apologize to Bibi Dong.
"I'm sorry, Mother, I misunderstood you."
Hearing her words, Bibi Dong naturally wasn't angry.
Instead, she reached out and patted her shoulder, comforting her with an indifferent expression, saying,
"It's alright. In a way, your misunderstanding isn't necessarily a bad thing."
"After all, if even you and Hu Liena, the people closest to me in Spirit Hall, can misunderstand because of this, then there's no need to mention others."
"Given the personalities of Yu Xiaogang and the others, they will most likely even gloat and be complacent about this... Let them immerse themselves in this illusory, self-righteous environment. The more they do, the more it benefits our Spirit Hall to develop quietly."
After she finished speaking, the corners of her mouth curved slightly.
Her smile became a little more cunning.
As for her thoughts.
The people outside naturally knew nothing.
Let alone Tang San.
Not even a few of the spectators truly guessed Bibi Dong's real intentions at this moment.
As a result, when they heard Tang San and the others' remarks this time, they still felt indignant.
They even helped Bibi Dong and the others, speaking out against the injustice.
They felt that Bibi Dong's lineage was simply synonymous with tragic beauty and strength.
Not only her, but her daughter was also like that.
They clearly possessed beauty and talent far exceeding ordinary people.
But they were both misguided in their trust.
The people they encountered were either scumbags or villains.
Of course, while some were indignant, others couldn't stand it.
They spoke up to argue on Tang San's behalf.
They said what they considered to be a fair statement.
"Scumbags or villains, isn't that statement a bit too exaggerated?"
"Exactly. If it's just about Yu Xiaogang, then fine, but no matter what, Tang San is still excellent, isn't he?"
However, upon hearing these so-called fair statements.
The speaker's expression remained unchanged.
He then snorted, supplementing with a hint of disdain.
"So what if he's excellent? Does being excellent mean he's not a villain? If Yu Xiaogang is talentless and immoral, then Tang San is talented but immoral, inheriting a similar character. It seems like the former is a bit better, but if I were to talk about the actual harm, Tang San is actually more dangerous."
"After all, the latter is more deceptive than the former."
"And don't you feel that Tang San is actually even more of a scumbag and more irresponsible than Yu Xiaogang?"
This is what it means to speak startlingly. As soon as his words fell, everyone present couldn't help but show a change in expression.
Even they felt a bit restless after hearing those words.
The Shrek Seven Devils, who were originally close to Tang San in Shrek Academy.
Naturally, there's no need to mention them. As soon as these words fell.
In an instant, Ma Hongjun spoke up, arguing angrily.
"What did you say? You think Tang San is more of a scumbag than Yu Xiaogang?"
"I'm not saying you're wrong, but isn't that a bit much? When it comes to being a scumbag, Yu Xiaogang is still in a league of his own."
However, facing Ma Hongjun's questioning at this moment.
The speaker showed no sign of backing down, his chin raised.
He also had a righteous demeanor, adding in response,
"Yes, Yu Xiaogang ran away at the first sign of danger, but at least he didn't have one eye on the bowl while eating from the pot. When he was dating Bibi Dong earlier, he could at least manage to be devoted."
"What about Tang San? Did Tang San achieve that?"
"If I remember correctly, this guy always said that Xiao Wu was his favorite, but what was the result? Is this what he did because he liked Xiao Wu? While saying he liked her, he turned around and went to flirt with others?"
A series of questions were asked.
Even Ma Hongjun, who was filled with anger and wanted to argue on Tang San's behalf, felt somewhat speechless.
He lowered his head in silence for a moment, unsure how to respond.
After hesitating for a long time.
He could only lower his head, choosing to play dead and ignore everything.
And while he chose to ignore it.
The more the surrounding people listened to these words, the more reasonable they found them.
They began to discuss wildly again.
"Don't tell me, what you're saying actually makes some sense."
"It's not just some sense, it's the truth. Tang San is a thorough scumbag who refuses to take responsibility!"
However, this time the discussion became somewhat one-sided.
It even had a hint of wanting to definitively label Tang San.
Hearing everyone's discussion.
Tang San's face naturally turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
He wanted to retort, but he didn't know what to say.
After all, some things.
Only get worse the more you try to explain them.
Any explanation is useless.
Thinking this, he was in pain.
He didn't know what to do.
At the crucial moment, the heavenly curtain intervened, indirectly helping Tang San out of his current predicament.
It once again shifted everyone's attention.
Because this time, with the broadcast of content related to the lucky spectator Bibi Dong ending.
Above the sky, the focus of the light screen finally shifted to Yu Chen once again.
And as soon as it came on, it showed the scene of Yu Chen confronting Qian Xunji!
The spectators had been looking forward to a direct confrontation between Qian Xunji and Yu Chen for more than a day or two.
Now that their wish was granted, no one paid attention to Tang San anymore.
Let alone them, even Xiao Wu had a similar reaction.
However, the scene of a fierce, no-holds-barred fight that everyone had originally anticipated did not appear.
Most likely, the pressure exerted by Yu Chen, along with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, had an effect.
This forced Qian Xunji to be cautious.
Upon meeting, he didn't dare to directly attack, but instead chose to use righteousness to pressure the other party.
As soon as they met, he began to question Yu Chen.
He asked him if he had been at all remiss in his hospitality when Yu Chen had previously visited Spirit Hall.
Hearing him say this, Yu Chen naturally shook his head. He clearly stated that he had been warmly received at Spirit Hall.
And Qian Xunji was clearly waiting for this answer.
Hearing him say this, Qian Xunji immediately snorted and added,
"If that's the case. Then what was the meaning of all your previous actions?
First, you secretly stole and viewed the Soul Power Ten Core Theories, the painstaking efforts of our Spirit Hall. Then, you directly abducted Bibi Dong, the Holy Maiden, whom our Spirit Hall had painstakingly cultivated for many years.
Yu Chen, everyone outside says you are a humble gentleman. That you repay a drop of kindness with a gushing spring. Is this how you repay? Is this how you treat your benefactor?"
