"Son-in-law? What do you mean?"
Tang San's pupils shrank, a foreboding feeling rising in his heart.
Xu Ran had always been active in Tiandou City and had never visited the Martial Soul Hall. The Hall's attitude towards Xu Ran was not good either; Xu Ran's talent directly threatened the prestige of Martial Soul Hall. Xu Ran, with his prominent talent and being of no use to Martial Soul Hall, was a thorn in the side for many within the organization, who wished to eliminate him swiftly.
Even last time, the teacher had planned for Aunt Dong to act against Xu Ran. Aunt Dong had been in Tiandou City for a long time but returned without success. Although the specifics were unknown, this much was apparent—the Hall's internal attitude towards Xu Ran was far from favorable.
Under such circumstances, how could Xu Ran possibly become involved with Martial Soul Hall?
The key point was, to become the son-in-law of Martial Soul Hall, it proved that Xu Ran intended to marry an extremely important figure from there. Could it be that Xu Ran wanted to target his precious Holy Lady Hu Liena?
Only this would enable Xu Ran to become the son-in-law of Martial Soul Hall.
Damn it!
Xu Ran had stolen his Xiaowu, his cousin Bai Chenxiang, and now he even aimed at his beloved Holy Lady. He was the Saint Heir of Martial Soul Hall, as well as the disciple of the teacher; Aunt Dong was utterly obedient to the teacher, and since Hu Liena was Aunt Dong's disciple, it was expected that Hu Liena would become his woman.
But Xu Ran's presence unnerved him; every time the relationship with his beloved had just shown some signs of improvement, Xu Ran would appear, seizing his women by cutting in mid-way.
They had even been bewitched by Xu Ran, still thinking Tang San was a bad guy. He, Tang San, had always acted openly and honorably, never daring to engage in sneaky misdoings, yet was constantly slandered by Xu Ran.
And now Xu Ran even had the audacity to stretch his vile claws towards his predestined beloved, Holy Lady Hu Liena—Tang San would never allow it.
"Damn Xu Ran, what a good-for-nothing. It seems I must hasten to secure Nana. At all costs, turn the raw rice into cooked rice and then beg forgiveness."
"Bi Bidong is but a toy in the teacher's hands; she's deeply in love with the teacher, and as long as the teacher speaks for me, nothing will come of it."
"Moreover, once Hu Liena knows of my Tang San's methods, I'll see if she dares to resist," Tang San thought coldly. These days he had been trying hard to appease Hu Liena, hoping to use her to fill the emotional void within his heart. Repeatedly, his women had been snatched away by Xu Ran. With countless beauties around Xu Ran, Tang San was desperate to win over Hu Liena, so he too could show off in front of Xu Ran.
But this obstinate woman, Hu Liena, refused to recognize what was good for her.
He could have been patient, but now with Xu Ran's arrival, it seemed he needed to employ certain methods to win over Hu Liena first.
Thinking of Hu Liena's alluring demeanor, her fox-like gait, she was simply a vixen proficient in seducing men. Hu Liena's beauty was no less than the women by Xu Ran's side, and she was the Saintess of Martial Soul Hall; holding her in his arms would also be a way to show off to Xu Ran.
The union of the Saint Heir and the Saintess, a match made in heaven—Xu Ran would surely be green with envy.
Then, holding Hu Liena, lovingly, in front of Xu Ran, showing off their affection would indeed make Xu Ran green with envy.
"Xu Ran, I think you'd better not set your sights on our Holy Lady. As the Martial Spirit Hall Holy Son, the Saintess is naturally meant to exist for the Holy Son. Hu Liena and I are deeply in love, and I hope you'll be sensible." Tang San said, his tone full of arrogance.
Now, with the inheritance of the Rakshasa God and the support of two supreme Divine Kings, he was still the Holy Son of the Martial Soul Hall; he really didn't need to take Xu Ran seriously anymore.
From now on, he, Tang San, was the main character. The world should revolve around him; Xu Ran's good days were about to come to an end.
"Not only that, you should also take good care of these delicate women by your side. Once you're on my turf, you won't have an easy time. As for Xiaowu, I will let her stay by your side for a few days. In a few days, I'll snatch her back. Then, the humiliation I suffered, I'll make sure you feel it step by step." Tang San's voice was incredibly cold and emphasized, countless people around heard his words.
Moreover, Tang San released his Soul Power fluctuations, "Cultivation Level" of Soul Sage, the extremely evil and terrifying attributes of Soul Power emanated from his body, instantly causing many people's complexions to change.
Although Tang San was only at Soul Sage cultivation, the aura emanating from him was already comparable to that of a Titled Douluo, naturally shocking all the students from the Tiandou Empire who had come to compete.
"Good heavens, what kind of 'Cultivation Level' is this? It's so terrifying."
"I originally thought the emergence of an exceptional genius like Xu Ran on this continent was frightening enough. But now, another terrifying genius has appeared, and he's from the Martial Soul Hall."
"I wonder who's stronger between him and Xu Ran. When Xu Ran made a move last time, his strength had already caught up with, or even surpassed, some of the older generation fighters. Although Tang San hasn't displayed his full power, I feel his strength must also be absolutely terrifying."
"This is interesting now, this genius from the Martial Soul Hall seems to have a deep grudge against Xu Ran. This is going to be interesting. We might be able to witness a battle of the century."
In an instant, numerous exclamations could be heard. Tang San appeared very young, but his aura far exceeded the 'Cultivation Level' one of his age should possess.
Even the people from the Martial Soul Hall were immensely shocked.
Is this their Martial Spirit Hall Holy Son? No wonder he was directly named the Saint Heir by the Pope; this talent is too terrifying.
With this kind of strength, perhaps even Xu Ran is not a match.
"Xu Ran..." Xiaowu tightly clutched Xu Ran's arm, her eyes full of disgust as she looked at Tang San. She could feel the sinister aura radiating from Tang San, extremely terrifying. Tang San had strong talent, but it's a pity that someone like him, once powerful, could only harm others and bring chaos to the world.
Xu Ran possessed noble character; he was straightforward and kind-hearted, how could he compare to someone as despicable and shameless as Tang San?
And although Tang San was powerful, he exuded an evil and cold aura, clear evidence of how dark and foul his heart was. In contrast, Xu Ran's entire being was filled with Righteous Qi.
The other women also looked at Tang San with disgust; they loathed the very ground beneath him. Tang San's disrespect towards Xu Ran naturally made them disdainful.
"Don't worry. Just some trash," Xu Ran said indulgently, gently stroking Xiaowu's smooth hair. As others were not paying attention, his other hand stealthily pinched her well-developed hip, causing Xiaowu's face to flush red.
Seeing this scene, Tang San's face turned an ashen hue. He had never felt the touch of that Holy part of Xiaowu's body, but Xu Ran could play with it at will. That was the difference.
