"Cousin, you have to believe me, come back to my side. As long as you are by my side, any humiliation I suffer is worth it."
"These past days I've almost been killed by that group of soul beasts, the He Huan Apes, they've been harassing me like crazy, subjecting me to extreme humiliation," Tang San said, his eyes brimming with hope.
As long as Bai Chenxiang could believe him and was willing to return to his side, he could endure any sort of humiliation.
"Tang San, I can't believe you're still playing this act, still making excuses," she said.
"I understand Xu Ran better than you. Xu Ran has been so kind to you, and yet you still slander him." Bai Chenxiang's chest heaved violently, she had never been so angry before. It was just infuriating.
All along the way, she had clearly seen how Xu Ran had used his status as a Soul Beast Overlord to drive off nearby soul beasts to ensure that Tang San would not encounter danger in the inner region and to help him obtain a better Soul Ring.
Tang San had been living a fairy-tale life in the Aquipeia Forest these days. She had just arrived when she saw Tang San eating barbecue and singing songs, so comfortable and carefree. If Tang San had truly suffered that horribly, how could he be so happily singing a tune?
"Cousin, listen to me explain." Tang San's heart skipped a beat, he shot a cold glance at Xu Ran, ready to explain to Bai Chenxiang.
"I won't listen, I won't listen, no one would believe the words of someone like you," Bai Chenxiang said, her cheeks flushed with anger as she couldn't help but slap Tang San across the face. She did not have such a despicable and shameless cousin.
Xu Ran was kind, innocent, elegant, and pure, certainly not the shameless wretch Tang San was describing.
Tang San himself was shameless, and yet he spoke about others, haha...
"Cousin, do you really not believe me? I really am miserable. The reason I'm so miserable is all because of Xu Ran. Xu Ran stole Xiaowu from me, killed my father, and has humiliated me time and again..." Tang San hurriedly explained, his face red and almost crying.
He was the one who had been bullied all this time!
His Xiaowu was stolen by Xu Ran, and Xu Ran continuously flaunted their love in front of him, embracing and kissing Xiaowu right in his face at school without any restraint. That was already enough, but this bastard Xu Ran even killed his father, Hao Tian Douluo, a peerlessly powerful figure of his generation.
Moreover, he had a premonition that Xu Ran had done a lot more things he didn't know about.
And none of those things could possibly be decent, because Xu Ran never did anything decent.
"Haha, don't think I don't know about Xiaowu. It was clearly you who wanted to harm Xiaowu, it was all exposed by Xu Ran, and yet you're still making excuses," Bai Chenxiang said angrily. She had already heard about Xiaowu from Xu Ran. Under Xu Ran's influence, she naturally believed that Tang San was coveting Xiaowu's soul bone.
With the story of Tang Hao before her, she was convinced of this matter.
"Damn it..." Tang San was at a loss for words. He almost forgot, now that he was thoroughly tainted, Xu Ran could pin any blame on his head. There were too many stains on him, and Xu Ran had brought all of these onto him.
"Xu Ran, I hate you."
"Damn your ancestors!"
"Xu Ran, are you happy only when you drive everyone away from me?"
Tang San got angry, seeing Xu Ran just there, mocking him, rage welling up inside him, and he charged at Xu Ran. What was Xu Ran trying to do? Was he bent on isolating him from everyone?
It was not easy for him to finally meet his cousin.
Yet, within a few days, his cousin had fallen victim to Xu Ran's malicious actions, and her thoughts had been swayed by Xu Ran to see him, her cousin, as the most detestable person.
"Xiangxiang, calm down, don't be angry. Someone like Tang San isn't worth it," Xu Ran said, kicking Tang San away before pulling Bai Chenxiang into his embrace, casually caressing her body with his hand.
Bai Chenxiang was now Xu Ran's woman, naturally, he could do as he pleased with her.
"Xu Ran, I hate you, you'll get what's coming to you!" Tang San's eyes turned red.
At that moment, Bai Chenxiang was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and light blue tight shorts that accentuated her petite figure and curves. Her slightly developed, perky buttocks and gently heaving chest were enough to attract countless gazes.
Her black twin ponytails added a touch of playfulness and cuteness, reminiscent of the girl next door in the bloom of youth.
A girl like her, barely past her loli years, did not carry the guilt of being with one so young, she was indeed a treasure. Even compared to Xiaowu, it would be an even match.
However, the discordant aspect at the moment was Xu Ran's bold hand wantonly kneading Bai Chenxiang's slender waist and jade buttocks, shameless to the extreme.
"Xu Ran, let go of my cousin, damn it, I will kill you," Tang San raged, thinking back on the agonizing days he had endured. He had been dragged to a cave by a Huanhuan Yuan while Xu Ran was living a blissful life with his cousin.
The more he thought about the contrast, the more he gritted his teeth in anger.
It should have been him leading such a comfortable life!
Originally, Bai He had agreed to promise Bai Chenxiang to him, and they were just about to establish a marriage contract when Xu Ran interrupted them. If not for Xu Ran, he didn't know how comfortable his life could have been by now.
"Tang San, get lost. You don't need to meddle in what's between me and Xu Ran. Xu Ran is the closest person to me, and I am willing to accompany him in whatever he wishes to do," Bai Chenxiang said with cold eyebrows, feeling shy about Xu Ran's actions, especially the tingling sensation coming from her buttocks, which made her somewhat embarrassed and even weakened her legs.
But now she was putting up a front.
Xu Ran was her future husband, and he could do whatever he wanted. These days by the Lake of Life, she was bullied so much that she cried out in pain, but still, she liked Xu Ran.
"My cousin, my cousin..." Tang San's eyes were lifeless as Xu Ran kicked him away again. Yu Xiaogang and Titan didn't dare to intervene, fearing Xu Ran's ferocity. If they provoked Xu Ran again, they were sure to face even greater suffering.
"Let's go, don't be sad over such a person," Xu Ran said, lifting his hand to pat Bai Chenxiang's delicate and lovely buttocks, savoring the feel of it.
"Ow." Bai Chenxiang's cheeks flushed red, her eyes brimming with affection as her legs went numb, and she collapsed in Xu Ran's arms, allowing him to carry her away.
"You big meanie, always bullying me!" Bai Chenxiang whined softly, mumbling through her little mouth, yet her cute face rubbed affectionately against Xu Ran's embrace.
Xu Ran was truly wonderful. Even if the whole world turned bad, Xu Ran would still be the one and only good person. Xu Ran was kind and pure, incomparable to Tang San.
Xu Ran, carrying Bai Chenxiang, left, and shortly after, the cries of apes rang out, causing Tang San and the other two to shudder with fear.
"Xu Ran, I hate you, one day, after I go to the Martial Soul Hall and live a happy life with the goddess, I will come to settle the score with you," Tang San said tearfully and with a shrill tone. The four He Huan Apes dragged him by his limbs towards the cave they had escaped from that morning.
