Chapter 2672: Explanation_1

After much deliberation, Xu Sheng accepted the three soul bones. Although their quality wasn't outstanding, they were certainly better than none!

"Then I'm very grateful to His Majesty the Emperor!"

After a simple gesture, he didn't linger and turned to leave the great hall...

Watching the former's figure disappear from view, Xue Ye finally let out a deep sigh, "I don't know if I'm doing the right thing, I hope he will help the Tiandou Empire when troubles arise in the future!"

...

Upon returning to Xue Qinghe's bedroom, he immediately attracted everyone's attention...

Xue Qinghe looked worried, "Xu Sheng, are you alright??"

This time, Xue Ye had allowed only Xu Sheng to go, not even himself as the Crown Prince!

Therefore, he was very concerned that the other party might have discovered something!

Xu Sheng said with a smile, "Nothing's wrong, Xue Ye just had a simple talk with me."

Xue Qinghe still gave him a skeptical look, "Are you sure there's nothing wrong? With Xue Ye's character, it's definitely not just like that!"

Ever since he had transformed into "Xue Qinghe," he had been continuously learning about Xue Ye, even exposing flaws in front of him several times!

So, he knew that Xue Ye wouldn't aim without a cause...

Facing those eyes, Xu Sheng no longer kept the secret, "You really are Ren Xue, I can't hide anything from you. In short, Xue Ye wanted to win me over, and oh, here are the three soul bones he gave me!"

After speaking, he released his Soul Power, causing the three soul bones to float in mid-air, emitting an unusual glow...

Xue Qinghe pursed his lips, "Winning over, huh..."

Porcupine Douluo, however, coldly shouted, "Boy, why would Xue Ye be willing to win you over with these three soul bones? You haven't exposed our existence, have you?"

Serpent Spear Douluo also sensed something amiss, and his gaze gradually became more hostile, "Goddess, I've said it before, this kid is indeed problematic, who knows if he will suddenly betray us!!"

Xue Qinghe glanced at them, wanting to trust Xu Sheng unconditionally...

But after hesitating, he still bit his thin lips and said, "Xu Sheng..."

It was clear that he also thought that Xu Sheng must have done something for Xue Ye to be willing to offer the price of three soul bones to win him over!

Xu Sheng also knew that unless he clarified the situation, Xue Qinghe and the others would no longer trust him...

After sighing, he explained, "Alright, I'll tell you all!"

"The reason Xue Ye wanted to win me over is because of..."

Upon saying that, he released his Martial Soul, the Nine-Hearted Begonia!

Nine dark Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings rose at his feet...

However, he suppressed this energy very well, causing no shockwaves...

...

After hearing the explanation, Xue Qinghe was deeply shocked and murmured, "So that's it, the reason Xue Ye had you go to the great hall was to take the opportunity to get rid of you, only to change his attitude after discovering your talent!"

"No wonder he did not allow me to go!"

Thinking back on it, his back felt a chill...

Because, having a Titled Douluo lurking by his side at all times was unimaginably dangerous!

Porcupine Douluo spoke with unmistakable wariness, "Indeed, the Martial Soul Hall is after you because of your terrifying talent!"

Serpent Spear Douluo also took a deep breath, "Innate Soul Power Level Ninety, this... this is already a place most Soul Masters won't reach in their entire lives!"

Xu Sheng glanced at them, "Now, do you have any more questions? I think, by disclosing this much, I've sufficiently demonstrated my sincerity, right?"

"Barely, but at least it means our cooperation can continue!"

Being assured that the former hadn't exposed their real identities, they could feel somewhat relieved...

...

At this moment, within the Court Etiquette Academy!

Tang Yuehua was subjecting Tang San to a very stringent training...

She had abandoned her usual gentle demeanor and now coldly scolded the standing Tang San, "Tang San, keep your back straighter, and your movements as slow as possible, so you will be less likely to make a mistake."

Following her instructions, Tang San straightened his back and tried his best to conduct himself more like a gentleman...

"Yes, auntie..."

But who knew, Tang Yuehua scolded him again, "Tang San, I've emphasized already, at times like this, do not call me auntie, but Chief."

She was very aware that if the other students at the Court Etiquette Academy discovered their relationship, Tang San would definitely face difficulties...

Tang San swiftly acknowledged his mistake, "Yes, Chief!"

In this manner, after enduring for a full two hours, Tang Yuehua finally nodded with satisfaction and said, "Tang San, well done, that will be all for today!"

Tang San, whose legs had gone numb to the point of losing all sensation, upon hearing these words, almost collapsed onto the ground...

But he restrained himself and managed to walk over to a nearby chair and sit down with the same posture...

Then, he finally began to breathe heavily, "Huff... huff..."

Although his mind was that of an adult, his body was still that of a child...

Of course, the main point was that he had never expected that learning "etiquette" could also be so challenging!

Seeing his state, Tang Yuehua also sat down beside him...

Her expression softened back to its usual gentleness as she quietly asked, "Xiaosan, do you hate your auntie?"

Tang San shook his head, denying, "No... I don't hate you, I know that auntie is teaching me all this so that I can stay at the Court Etiquette Academy!"

Tang Yuehua couldn't help but feel relieved and patted his head, "Child, it's good that you understand. After all, this Court Etiquette Academy is for the education of noble scions, and even the princes of the Tiandou Empire come here from time to time!"

"To avoid being targeted by others, you must not let your true identity be discovered!!"

Tang San nodded to show he understood, "Yes, auntie, I will work even harder, so as not to shame you!"

Tang Yuehua smiled softly, "I believe you, after all, you are his son."

After a pause, she asked curiously, "By the way, has your Martial Soul inherited the Blue Silver Grass from Ah Yin?"

Tang San simply responded with a "Hmm," not saying much else...

Yet Tang Yuehua continued, "Then do you know about the Hao Tian Clan?"

Tang San showed a puzzled expression, "Hao Tian Clan? What is that?"

It seemed he was trying to get an answer from her...

Seeing his reaction, Tang Yuehua shook her head and said, "It seems Hao Ge hasn't told you yet, so I won't say more."

"Alright, you go back to your room and rest, you must be tired from today!"

Only then did Tang San stand up and said respectfully, "Then Tang San will take his leave first, aunt... Chief!"

Watching him leave, Tang Yuehua sighed quietly to herself...

In her heart, she thought, "Tang San's Martial Soul is Blue Silver Grass... it's going to be extremely difficult for him to reclaim his heritage in the future!

"Well, since Hao Ge brought him to me, he must have his reasons. All I need to do is teach him as much as I can about etiquette!!"

After all... she could hardly consider herself a Soul Master!
