The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Tu Sheng fell silent; he was somewhat shaken.

"Actually, I know you don't really find me repugnant. You just can't admit that you're inferior to me, can't admit that I'm better than you, right?" Tang Rao said.

Tu Sheng glared, but didn't retort.

He didn't know how Tang Rao had perceived it, but it was the truth.

On one hand, he admired Tang Rao, admired Tang Rao's talent and wisdom; but on the other hand, he hated Tang Rao's excellence, hated that he was better than himself in everything.

"In this world, there are plenty of clever people, countless with great talents. Do you intend to hate each one? Such behavior is not befitting a clever person. Moreover, everyone's cleverness is different; I am good at strategizing, and you are good at research—strictly different fields. In the matter of Death Energy Puppet research, I never felt I was superior to you because in that regard, your talent far surpasses mine," Tang Rao said, each sentence honest and heartfelt.

Tu Sheng stared blankly at Tang Rao's holographic image.

"The opportunity I've given you; it's up to you whether you take it or not."

Tu Sheng fell silent, a prolonged silence.

"I, Tu Sheng..." Suddenly, Tu Sheng raised his head, "hereby swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao, from this day forward, to follow Tang Rao; should I break this promise, I am willing to face the annihilation by Heavenly Dao."

Tu Sheng had never even made such a vow to Mei Fanghua.

"Isn't this better? From now on, we're all one family," Tang Rao said with a smile.

Then he signaled Yan Wei to stand down from combat readiness.

The laboratory doors opened, and Tu Sheng immediately entered.

"Ying Ying, are you... okay?" Seeing Fang Ying next to Tang Rao, Tu Sheng couldn't help but ask.

Fang Ying looked unwell.

"Say hello to your real father," Tang Rao said cheerily to Fang Ying.

"Tang Rao, you faithless scum," Fang Ying turned her head and cursed. Tang Rao had subdued Tu Sheng, so naturally, he could not kill him now.

Hearing Fang Ying curse him, Tang Rao just shrugged indifferently.

"I've been a scoundrel for more than a day or two, but compared to me, you're no better," Tang Rao casually glanced at Fang Ying, "plotting to kill your own father day in and day out, I've never seen such a person like you, it's truly sick."

"You have no idea! Do you even know what he did?" Fang Ying shouted.

"So what did he do?" Tang Rao asked.

"He..." Fang Ying pointed at Tu Sheng, "he killed my mother!"

Tu Sheng lowered his head, his expression downcast.

"Actually, I also know a bit about the matter regarding Fang Jing," Tang Rao suddenly spoke.

What!

Both Tu Sheng and Fang Ying turned to look at Tang Rao, he knew?

"Slim, pull up the data," Tang Rao said to Yan Wei.

Yan Wei nodded and began operating on the keyboard.

The network of the Seventy-two Domains of the Nine Realms had already been set up, and the entire information system was also starting to operate, though still in its infancy, the network's powerful information gathering functionality was already showing its effectiveness.

"According to the data, Fang Jing died three years ago, the location of death being the First King Star of the Central Emperor Realm," Yan Wei began recounting as he looked at the data.

Both Yan Wei and Fang Ying shockingly looked at Yan Wei and the large holographic screen before him.

This matter was extremely secretive, there were no witnesses around at the time, how could it possibly have been found out?

"The news claims that Fang Jing's death was orchestrated by her partner, Tu Sheng." Yan Wei continued.

Hearing this, Fang Ying glared at Tu Sheng with intense murderous intent.

"Stop talking..." Tu Sheng sighed, "If it weren't for my incompetence, if it weren't for my stubbornness, Jing wouldn't have died..."

"According to informed sources, there's something peculiar about Fang Jing's death. Wait a moment, let me look up the new information." Yan Wei said.

What's peculiar about her death? What does that mean?

"Ah, found it." Yan Wei quickly snapped his fingers, "A member of the Soul Capture Pavilion revealed that Fang Jing and he were recruited into the Soul Capture Pavilion at the same time."

What!

Tu Sheng was stunned. Fang Jing a member of the Soul Capture Pavilion? How is that possible!

"That's impossible, my mother never mentioned it, she couldn't possibly be a member of the Soul Capture Pavilion." Fang Ying also said.

"Fang Jing had offended a high-ranking member of the Soul Capture Pavilion, who issued a murder order, the receiver of the murder order..." Yan Wei suddenly looked up at Tu Sheng and Fang Ying.

"Murder order receiver: Mei Fanghua." Yan Wei said.

Tu Sheng was shaking all over, this couldn't be possible, how could it be...

That's not how it happened.

"Yo, the whistleblower is quite honest, even uploaded a video." Yan Wei chuckled, quickly downloaded the video and started to play it on the holographic screen.

The video was short and the content extremely simple.

It showed Mei Fanghua and a man, the man assigning her a task, which was to kill Fang Jing.

"Mei Fanghua!!" Seeing the video, Tu Sheng could no longer control the rage and frenzy inside, so it was that vile woman!

Damn it! Damn it!!

At this moment, Fang Ying also stared intently at the holographic screen, her hands clenched tightly, her gaze terribly ominous.

"I'll kill you!" Tu Sheng roared, turning to leave.

Of course, Tang Rao wouldn't just watch Tu Sheng seek his own doom.

"Come on, be calm. Revenge is a must, but it should be taken step by step, some things can't be rushed." Tang Rao grabbed Tu Sheng.

"She killed my wife!" Tu Sheng shouted.

"She also killed my master." Tang Rao said indifferently, "You should know what Ajiu means to me."

Tu Sheng went silent.

"Rest assured, Mei Fanghua's death is certain. However, sometimes, to take revenge on someone, death is too bland; I want her to despair, I want her to go insane, I want her to perish in fear." Tang Rao's mouth curled up, his eyes deep with ferociousness and brutality.

Hate Mei Fanghua? No one hates her more than he does.

Feeling the ferocity emanating from Tang Rao, Tu Sheng was also shocked.

"To be an outstanding person, you must first know how to control your emotions. Hide when you should hide, and when it's time to burst out, do so with all you have." Tang Rao patted Tu Sheng's shoulder.

Tu Sheng took a deep breath and slowly nodded.

"Alright, my plan for now is to completely set Mei Fanghua against the Soul Capture Pavilion. However, her killing two members of the Soul Capture Pavilion holding the Judge Order isn't intense enough. Let's all use our clever little brains and think of a way to mess with her." Tang Rao clapped his hands, trying to keep his tone light.

"The key is to make Mei Fanghua or the Soul Capture Pavilion completely intolerable. Mei Ziqiang has already been killed by me, the key now is the Soul Capture Pavilion." Tu Sheng said.

"Make Mei Fanghua kill a Judge Candidate Envoy." Fang Ying said.

"See, you two work quite well together." Tang Rao grinned.
