Douluo Continent: A Thousand Miles of Cultivation

"how do you want to do it?"

"To declare our existence!" A ruthless glint flashed in Tang San's eyes.

"Ning Rongrong has used herself as a nail, wedged herself into Tiandou City. She wants to tie us down with her own strength!"

"She might have one stroke of luck, but she won't have luck every time!"

To be honest, Tang San had not expected Xiao Wu and Qian Shuishui to appear. The Sixth Elder was most likely killed by Qian Shuishui, and Tang San understood this the moment he saw her.

After all, the primordial spirit martial soul is no longer so mysterious. At least they all know that when Qian Shui was in the City of Slaughter, at the Soul King level, he was almost on his last breath, yet he was still able to kill Dugu Bo, a titled Douluo.

If Qian Shui can do it, there's no reason why Qian Shui Shui can't.

This made him very hesitant to act rashly. With the Crown Prince and Ning Rongrong, the best governing officials, letting everyone know that they had both returned, the former Crown Prince's residence was absolutely untouchable.

With a righteous cause and prestige, if they don't want to be attacked by the masses, they must be ruthless!

Moreover, with Qian Shuishui's involvement, the very things Tang San had discussed with Xue Beng are now falling on his own shoulders.

Now, she has become one of your most powerful enemies, Tang San. Are you ready to kill her at any time?

He was clearly annoyed by what happened at the engagement banquet. Qian Shuishui's appearance threw Tang San into a state of turmoil. He even made a foolish move, giving the Buddha's Fury Lotus to the Crown Prince, hoping that he would detonate it on his own, which would make killing him extremely easy.

Fortunately, Tang San cared about that strange child. When he calmed down, he even asked him for help. After all, in front of everyone, if things really escalated, he wouldn't be able to escape responsibility.

He was even less confident that he could keep everyone, especially Qian Shuishui.

Once the news gets out, it's no different from wiping out the original Crown Prince's residence. The only way to deal with this is through assassination, making them disappear.

Because at that time, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will definitely go crazy, the Spirit Hall will definitely go crazy, and it will be almost a certainty to turn around the army and annihilate them.

But there are still many things that need to be done, especially the need for him to establish his authority!

He can even have his fiancée taken away, and he doesn't dare to utter a single word. Is someone like that really fit to be a boss?

People have always been more afraid of authority than of virtue, and this problem can be seen in the puzzled expressions of the sect members.

Seeing Tang San's confident smile, Tang Xiao couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Little San, what exactly is your plan?"

Passing Tang Xiao, Tang San's gaze pierced through the gate and landed on a certain spot inside Heaven Dou City. "Under the guise of protecting the princess's safety! At the same time, to make an example of her!"

"Old gorilla, the sect leader wants to..."

"Old White Bird, don't worry, you know how the Sect Master is!"

"Oh?"

Sitting to the side, Bai He was somewhat alarmed. At the wedding banquet, his granddaughter, whom he hadn't seen for many years, gave him a new perspective on Tang San's attitude.

The incident of Tang San killing his master has been brought up again, and it caused quite a stir. Otherwise, why would Tang San have changed his name?

Besides the members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and Qian Shui herself, all the parties involved were present. In fact, Qian Shui was the one who got a ride.

The Tang San of the past made Bai He think he was decisive, but now, looking at him again, he's a bit creepy.

Because of this incident, Tang San even changed his name and identity, and then used a method to cultivate again, and now his strength is even more remarkable.

Admittedly, there are stories of underdogs achieving success, but what are the odds of that happening?

They are well aware of whether their methods over the years have been honorable or not.

With two loud explosions, everything was already destined.

"Then, Uncle, could you come with me to fetch the princess?" Tang San bowed to Tang Xiao, who was slightly shocked.

But Tang Xiao still agreed, "Okay!"

With that, the two strode out.

Chapter 319 Changes at the Card Table

"You all arrived so quickly!"

Suppressing her shock and anger, Ning Rongrong sat down in the main seat of the former Crown Prince's council hall.

"Hehe, Rongrong, long time no see, why the long face?" Chen Sha, who was in the lead, laughed happily.

Ning Rongrong didn't say anything, just watched the groups of people sitting or standing in twos and threes, drinking tea or reading documents, treating them like her own family's teachers.

Both Songxuan and Qianmei's families have been in trouble at the same time. Now, both of them are emotionally distraught and have fainted from crying in the backyard. When asked why she has such a stern face, she replied...

Besides, how long has she been back? What's wrong with this person? She was on the battlefield just yesterday, and now that such a big thing has happened, with the whole of Doucheng watching her, these teachers have all appeared together?

Are there really such coincidences in the world?

Whether it was a coincidence or not, Chen Sha didn't know. She could only tell her to go ask her brother Shui. At least they were probably just joining in the fun and happened to be caught up in something. After that, they were given orders.

Soon, the silence was broken by an uninvited guest. The doors to the council hall opened, and Tang San's voice rang out, "Rongrong, there are some things we need to discuss..."

Tang Xiao, who had come in with Tang San, also frowned and stopped. He was puzzled. What was going on?

"Hey! Who's this? He looks so familiar." A flashy man flipping through files, wearing reflective sunglasses, pushed up his sunglasses and looked at Tang San with a hint of mockery.

At the same time, a figure dressed in a blue Taoist robe and holding a sword appeared at the entrance of the council hall.

Tang San was speechless. Yin Jin, his predecessor, was the one who handled his case of killing his master. Behind him, at the entrance of the council hall, stood Qian Shuishui, the person he had killed while hitchhiking.

At this moment, based on their current strength, they can't do anything.

Thanks to the sea spirit beast tide, the people in front of them have all reached the level of titled Douluo, and many of them even have the blessing of 100,000-year spirit rings.

Although they are far apart, the existence of spirit rings cannot be kept secret.

With the addition of Qian Shuishui, an exceptional fighter, and Ning Rongrong, currently the undisputed number one support in the world, they could easily keep Tang San and Tang Xiao at bay.

"I heard about the princess and the crown prince's affair, so I came to see them."

Although she was annoyed by these people's appearance a moment ago, Ning Rongrong smiled now. The moment Tang San arrived, she understood what he was going to do.

Even with Qian Shuishui by her side, she wasn't confident that Tang San could actually take Xue Ke away if she were alone.

Power doesn't disappear, it just changes.

Once Tang San succeeds, he will have proven his ability, and the neutral faction will be intimidated and turn to him.

Ning Rongrong's actions will instead prove that she was just putting on an act. Her miscalculation and attempt to infiltrate Tiandou City will ruin her reputation.

You see, people only see what's in front of them, regardless of how deep your secrets are. It's just that they can't see it and can't afford to gamble.

Regardless of whether the methods are despicable or not, as long as they are effective, that's enough.

But now things are different; her cards have been redealt!

What did Tang San just say? She heard it clearly: "Didn't you say you had something to discuss with me?"

She wouldn't let Tang San off so easily after he used such despicable methods. There was no evidence, and now wasn't the time to close the net, but she still wanted to collect some interest.

"I'm just here to see Princess Xueke!" Tang San said firmly.

In a single glance, Tang San knew that taking Xue Ke away was no longer an option.

Violence is effective, but it is most effective when it is not used. Ning Rongrong does not know what he will do. She will choose the lesser of two evils and hand Xue Ke over to him. Then his goal will be achieved.

Now it's completely meaningless. He can't really cause trouble in the former Crown Prince's residence because almost half of Ning Rongrong's forces have returned to Tiandou City. If they want, it's only a matter of time before they regain control of the city.

Therefore, Tang San was certain that he had only come to observe and that he had lost this round.

He was hesitant to act rashly, but the other party wouldn't.

They returned with great momentum and a righteous cause, and they also had a huge force as their backing. Even the power he currently controls is simply not enough to contend with them.

If these people shared his intention to eliminate all rivals and dissidents, Tang San and Tang Xiao would never have been able to leave the Crown Prince's residence.

It's very simple. Just accuse them of trying to kill the Crown Prince. The dead can't speak, not to mention that they are now the weaker party. If they die, their power will only crumble.

Therefore, Tang San had to compromise; at the very least, he needed to ensure his own survival upon returning. "Teacher Yin, now that you've returned, what about the matter concerning the Ministry of Education and the Heaven Dou Royal Academy..."

Seeing that Tang San had steered the conversation towards her, Yin Jin said irritably, "You're doing a great job, aren't you? Go on~"

"this…"

This was beyond Tang San's expectations. Yin Jin refused quite decisively, as if it were not fake, and even his words showed a hint of disdain.

But Ning Rongrong gave him another big surprise, "By the way, Tang San, I have some good news for you. Your proposal from last time was discussed and everyone thought it was feasible, so it was approved. As the Minister of Education and the Dean of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, you will be fully responsible for this matter!"

Tang San thought that Ning Rongrong must have gone mad.

Things had come to this point, and he didn't believe they couldn't figure out who was behind the two bombings.

He's making his threats obvious; otherwise, they wouldn't have any effect.

If they were truly that stupid, they would never have reached their current positions.

Tang San hadn't quite figured it out yet; he just felt like he'd been given a huge windfall.

After all, this matter cannot be accomplished without the support of both sides; the other side's integration capabilities and prestige are stronger than theirs.

But there's no such thing as a free lunch, and he had no choice but to agree, "No problem, Rongrong, leave this to me!"

"Okay! Do you have anything else to do? There's another meeting coming up, would you like to stay and sit in?"

Even after the order to leave was given, Tang San hesitated. Should he just let them go like that?

“Xiao Ke and Hong’er are both fine. They just saw it from a distance. If you’re not going to listen in, please leave.” Ning Rongrong then turned to Tang Xiao, “Sect Leader Tang, Rongrong has been very busy with official duties. Such a big thing happened in the capital, and there must be an explanation. I hope you will forgive me for not taking good care of them!”

"Then we'll take our leave!" This time, Tang San didn't hesitate.

Ning Rongrong pointed at him in the end, her eyes filled with undisguised coldness.

After Tang San left, Chen Sha finally couldn't hold back anymore, "Rongrong, wow! She ate such a big bite!"

“Sister Sasha! Such a big thing has happened, I don’t believe you don’t know who started it! I want to ask you, why don’t you take action?!” Ning Rongrong believed these teachers.

But Yin Jin only made a few sarcastic remarks and then it was over. They showed no intention of making a move, not even through telepathy, so she could only assume they had a backup plan.

Chen Sha could only laugh it off; she couldn't very well say it was her brother Shui's order, could she? "Oh dear, didn't you handle this quite well? The Minister of Finance and the Minister of Justice are both gone, so who's going to approve the money for them?"

Feeling guilty, would they come asking for money back? They'll have to absorb the huge expense of hosting the competition themselves!

Seeing that everything was alright, Qian Shuishui turned and left. However, she remembered a saying that was very suitable for her elder friends: "Those who play tactics are all ruthless!"

"What about all those lives?! What about Matsugen and Asami's families?!"

Ning Rongrong felt a pang of regret. She ultimately realized she was too young and felt she bore at least half the responsibility for the incident, as it was the consequence of her willfulness.

"Alright, Rongrong, no one can be completely safe, not even His Highness the Crown Prince," Chen Sha comforted her, in her opinion Ning Rongrong was indeed too young.
