Chapter 57 Not Bowing Down for Five Pecks of Rice? But what if it were five hundred bushels of rice?
No sooner had Lan Minghua left Shrek Academy than Flander hurriedly found Tang San.
At this moment, Yu Xiaogang and Tang San were still immersed in shock, watching Lan Minghua and his group depart, unable to recover for a long time.
"This...how is this possible? A Title Douluo would actually become the disciple of another Title Douluo!" Yu Xiaogang muttered to himself, his face full of disbelief.
In his understanding, Title Douluos were already the pinnacle of existence on the continent.
How could they possibly condescend to become the disciples of another Title Douluo?
Moreover, Dugu Bo was a renowned Title Douluo with a distinguished reputation.
Such an arrogant person actually sincerely addressed a group of teenagers as senior brothers and sisters.
That scene completely overturned his understanding.
Tang San's expression was equally grim, vaguely feeling targeted.
He had originally planned to befriend Dugu Bo and use his poison to create powerful hidden weapons.
Unexpectedly, the plan was aborted before it could even be implemented.
Just as the two were in shock, Flander suddenly appeared before them with a "whoosh."
Yu Xiaogang was startled and couldn't help but exclaim, "Flander, when are you going to get rid of this elusive habit?"
Flander's lips twitched, and he quickly covered Yu Xiaogang's mouth, whispering like a thief.
"Shh, keep your voice down! Xiaogang, are you trying to kill me so you can inherit my Shrek Academy?"
Yu Xiaogang looked bewildered and asked, "Flander, aren't you the dean of Shrek Academy? Why are you acting like a thief in your own home?"
Flander didn't explain, pulling Yu Xiaogang towards the room while whispering,
"Xiaogang, don't talk. Tang San, Xiao Wu, don't ask anything either, come in with me."
As he spoke, he cautiously used his spirit to sense their surroundings, confirming that no one was watching them.
As for Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, they had been kicked out of the team by Tang San after they attacked Yu Xiaogang.You'll never believe why I moved to… KarachiMeetSinglesYou'll never believe why I moved to… KarachiMeetSinglesLooking for someone in Karachi todaySingleflirtLooking for someone in Karachi todaySingleflirt
After confirming no one was watching, Flander quickly pulled Yu Xiaogang into the room.
However, unbeknownst to them, Wu Song had already quietly appeared on the roof, drinking heartily.
Looking at Flander and his group inside, a mocking smile played on his lips.
Inside, Yu Xiaogang broke free from Flander's grasp, saying with a look of disgust, "Flander, what are you up to? Why are you acting so suspiciously in your own home?"
Tang San and Xiao Wu were also puzzled, wondering why Flander had rushed to them so soon after Lan Minghua left.
Flander put a finger to his lips, gesturing for them to be quiet: "Shh, just listen to me."
Seeing Flander's serious expression, Yu Xiaogang realized something was amiss and quieted down.
Flander sighed deeply and without hesitation pulled a letter from his pocket, handing it to Tang San.
"Tang San, this is a letter from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Take a look while Lan Minghua is away from the academy."
Tang San was quite surprised. Why would the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School write to him?
They didn't seem to have any connection.
Although puzzled, he quickly opened the letter.
Yu Xiaogang felt it was impolite to lean in and look directly, but ultimately couldn't resist his curiosity and leaned closer.
Seeing this, Tang San simply read the contents of the letter aloud.
"Tang San, you'll probably be puzzled when you see this letter, wondering why the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, whom you don't know, would write to you. But don't worry, keep reading, and you'll understand."
"The three upper sects are closely connected. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School encountered a calamity, and the Clear Sky Sect chose to help. To promote the relationship between the two sects, your father, Tang Hao, agreed to let you marry Rongrong. More accurately, you will be marrying into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
Upon reading this, Tang San was immediately enraged.
As a man, he was being asked to marry into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?
Having lived two lives, he had never suffered such humiliation!
Xiao Wu's pupils constricted sharply when she heard that Tang San was going to marry into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Her feelings for Tang San had long surpassed sibling affection; they were deep love.
Seeing the man she loved about to be taken away, she rushed forward, grabbed Tang San's hand, and anxiously asked, "Little San, you won't agree, right?"
Tang San was about to answer confidently when he suddenly saw the name "Tang Hao" in the letter and exclaimed in shock.
"Tang Hao? My father is still alive?!"
That night, Tang San had thought Tang Hao had died at Lan Minghua's hands.
After all, Tang Hao had suffered such severe injuries; the chances of him surviving were extremely slim.
Unexpectedly, he was still alive!
A surge of joy welled up in Tang San's heart.
He didn't immediately answer Xiao Wu but continued reading the contents of the letter.
"You might feel annoyed reading this. But this is your father's and the Clear Sky Sect's decision. Moreover, after you marry into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, they won't mistreat you.
On the contrary, as one of the wealthiest forces on the continent, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will spare no effort to help you grow.
With the full support of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, your powerful hidden weapons will also have the opportunity to flourish on the continent."
Tang San paused here, pondering to himself.
It was truly a case of finding something without even looking for it!
His plan to befriend Dugu Bo had just failed, and now the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had proactively extended an olive branch.
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is the wealthiest sect. With their support, what kind of materials can't I obtain?
The Tang Clan's powerful hidden weapons all require precious materials. With the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's help, I'm sure I can reproduce them on the continent!"
Tang San's hope was rekindled, imagining himself defeating Lan Minghua with Tang Clan hidden weapons.
Seeing that Tang San hadn't answered yet, Xiao Wu pouted in dissatisfaction, grabbed his hand, and asked angrily, "Xiao San, you still haven't answered me!"
Tang San was momentarily speechless, his gaze darting around, unsure how to respond.
He had long harbored other feelings for Xiao Wu, but had never shown them.
Now, the price offered by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was too tempting, and he had long forgotten the humiliation of marrying into the family.
Suddenly, he thought of an excuse and immediately said, "Xiao Wu, you know I'm not the kind of person to bow down for five pecks of rice. But this is Father's decision, and I can't go against it."
Tang San indeed wouldn't bow down for five pecks of rice, but the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's offer was at least five hundred shi of rice.
Xiao Wu pouted in dissatisfaction, clearly unhappy with Tang San's answer.
Seeing this, Tang San quickly said, "Xiao Wu, don't worry, no matter what happens, you'll always be my sister. Anyone who wants to harm you will have to step over my dead body first."
True to her love-struck nature, Xiao Wu instantly succumbed to his charm upon hearing this.
"Mmm, I knew you were the best to me, Xiao San. How could Xiao San possibly like that little witch Ning Rongrong!"
Tang San breathed a sigh of relief; Xiao Wu was still so easy to fool.
He wasn't really after Ning Rongrong's body, but he was after the resources of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Yu Xiaogang saw through everything but didn't expose him.
After all, he had done something similar before—
seduce the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall and use her identity to access a vast amount of information about the Spirit Hall.
Tang San was now using his status as a son-in-law to openly enjoy the resources of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Little did they know, their words were all over Wu Song's ears on the roof.
At the same time, those forces that received news of Lan Minghua's departure from Shrek Academy began to take action.
