Chapter 293: I Am the Eldest Legitimate Son of the Jiang Family!
Tang San was indeed very surprised; he never expected to run into Spirit Hall's Hu Liena in Slaughter City.
But what puzzled him even more was her current attitude.
After all, in his eyes, given the previous events at the The Pope's Palace, it was no exaggeration to say that Spirit Hall and the Tang Sect were now life-and-death enemies.
Yet, meeting by chance in this lawless underground city filled with sin and slaughter, he couldn't sense even a shred of killing intent from the woman before him!
This clearly defied common sense.
"What? Tang San?"
Hu Liena's narrow, beautiful eyes flickered as she looked at him with a half-smile, her voice carrying a hint of her unique Charm. "Does meeting me here surprise you that much? We are acquaintances, after all. Can't you be a bit of a gentleman and invite me in to sit for a while?"
Hearing this, Tang San's brow instinctively furrowed slightly.
But on second thought, with his current cultivation approaching that of a Soul Douluo, combined with the lethal Tang Sect Hidden Weapons in his storage soul tool, he wasn't afraid of whatever Hu Liena might try to pull.
Furthermore...
Under the dual perception of the Purple Demon Eye and the Blue Silver Domain, Tang San keenly noticed that Hu Liena's aura was somewhat unstable and restless, with a hint of suppressed violent rage deep in her eyes.
Clearly, she hadn't been able to resist the temptation of Slaughter City and had already consumed that yellow springs dew containing a special toxin.
At this thought, Tang San couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
She was merely a Degenerate whose mind was being gradually eroded by the yellow springs dew. Even if he showed mercy and didn't kill her today, it was only a matter of time before she completely succumbed to the bloodlust of Slaughter City and became a walking corpse.
She wasn't worth wasting his precious Hidden Weapons on.
Not to mention that his great father and gentle mother were now happily together.
This evil Spirit Hall Disciple who lusted after his great father would, at most, only be a Concubine even if she entered the Jiang Family in the future.
As a staunch feudalist warrior, in Tang San's view, he would have some respect for his stepmothers, but not much.
He was the legitimate eldest son of the Jiang Family!
If this evil Spirit Hall woman was still deeply in love with his great father, then he wouldn't mind lending a helping hand.
Otherwise, she would be seeking her own death!
In a flash, the vigilance on Tang San's face vanished, replaced by a perfectly refined and gentle smile.
"Young Miss Hu Liena, what are you saying?"
Tang San's voice was gentle, and his eyes even showed a perfectly timed hint of relief at reuniting with an old friend. "To meet again in this perilous Slaughter City is proof that we share a karmic bond. Since we are old acquaintances, I naturally welcome you to my humble abode."
With that, Tang San stepped aside, opening the door and making a gentlemanly gesture to invite Hu Liena inside to chat.
Seeing this, Hu Liena didn't hesitate or act coy.
A charming curve formed at the corner of her mouth as she strode forward with her long legs, walking into Tang San's room with poise.
...
Entering the room and carefully observing the luxurious and tidy furnishings, Hu Liena couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
To be able to occupy and maintain such a superior residence in the dog-eat-dog inner city of Slaughter City showed that Tang San's strength was absolutely not to be underestimated.
Otherwise, the Degenerates outside who went mad at the scent of blood would have swallowed this place whole a long time ago.
She really wondered how that mysterious and powerful Mr. Jiang Li had managed to cultivate such an outstanding Disciple.
"Tang... Tang San," Hu Liena bit her red lip, her tone carrying a hint of subtle nervousness and probing, "Can I ask... how is your Master, Mr. Jiang Li, doing lately?"
Hearing this, a "just as I thought" smile flashed deep in Tang San's eyes.
His great father's damn, irresistible Charm!
Even the Disciple of the dignified Pope was so infatuated that her divine soul was turned upside down, and she couldn't stop thinking about him.
"Hu Liena, first I must correct you on one point." Tang San folded his hands, his tone calm and steady. "My former Master has now officially become my father."
"Secondly, my great father is doing very well right now."
These two short sentences were like two heavy hammers that instantly made Hu Liena's brain stall.
What did he mean by Mr. Jiang Li becoming Tang San's father?
She clearly knew all those words, but when put together, why did they make her mind go blank?
Seeing Hu Liena's stunned and dazed expression, Tang San smiled and continued, "Yes, it's exactly what you think. Father and my mother have officially come together and tied the knot."
"So, Young Miss Hu Liena, if you are still fantasizing about becoming Father's Primary Wife, I'm afraid there's no possibility of that anymore."
Instantly, Hu Liena felt as if her chest was being tightly blocked by something, making her feel suffocated and panicked.
She had finally managed to be brave for once and was prepared to face her own heart, but before she could even start trying, she had lost so completely?
No!
Hu Liena suddenly looked up, meeting Tang San's meaningful and scrutinizing gaze.
For a perfect man like His Excellency Jiang Li, who possessed peerless elegance and was like a banished immortal, what woman in this world would be lucky enough to have him all to herself?
As long as she could stay by Mr. Jiang Li's side, even as a Concubine, it would already be a tremendous blessing for her!
"Tang... Tang San," Hu Liena took a deep breath, her eyes becoming burning hot again. "If... I mean if, after we leave Slaughter City, I continue to pursue His Excellency Jiang Li, would you... and your mother, mind?"
Hearing this expected question, a correct smile slowly curved at the corner of Tang San's mouth.
Mind?
How could they mind!
To be able to spread the branches and leaves of their Jiang Family, as a son, he couldn't be happier; why would he step in to stop it?
"Young Miss Hu Liena, in principle, I am absolutely not opposed to it. I also believe that my generous mother would be very happy to see more life and excitement added to our home."
Tang San shifted his tone, adding a hint of well-timed regret and deep meaning. "But... you are aware of certain things. As the Personal Disciple of Pope Bibi Dong, your identity is simply too sensitive."
"Furthermore, I believe you are also well aware of the current situation where our Tang Sect and your Spirit Hall are as incompatible as fire and water."
Hearing this, an extremely bitter smile uncontrollably crept onto Hu Liena's charming face.
Once, she felt immense pride and glory in being the Personal Disciple of the Pope.
But now, she only felt that this identity was like a heavy shackle, so loathsome and suffocating.
'Teacher, rest assured, Nana will definitely find a perfect way for our two sides to turn swords into plowshares and progress together."
'You love Nana so much, I believe you would also want to see your most beloved Disciple pursue and achieve the ultimate happiness in life, right?"
Hu Liena comforted herself in her heart this way.
