The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Shortly after coming out of the cave, it collapsed entirely.

Hu Dadao and the others were extremely excited, as they had almost entirely wiped out the Soul Capture Pavilion base.

Lao San's one billion Spirit Stone gloves were fierce, knocking down anyone in sight.

Even those in the mid-stage of Crossing Calamity were no match.

Of course, it was fortunate that Lao San took charge. Otherwise, they would have been too slow to react when facing the late-stage Crossing Calamity opponent.

"Have you guys got quite a few Space Rings?" Tang Rao asked.

"Hehe, grabbed some. Lao San, can you share some with us?"

"No need to split them," Tang Rao waved his hand, "Whoever got them, keeps them. No need to envy who got more or less."

"Lao San is so cool!"

"Lao San is so generous!"

All eleven of them were overjoyed, initially thinking that Lao San's decision not to split meant that they had to hand them over.

But it turned out that he let them keep everything, that's the big brother style.

"However, first return the gloves to me. Of course, if you have the money, you can buy them— one billion Spirit Stones, the family price," Tang Rao said.

One billion Spirit Stones…

They absolutely couldn't afford it.

Even Hu Dadao felt helpless. As a beginner in the Crossing Calamity stage, he only had over three hundred thousand Spirit Stones, which felt pretty miserable.

Even though they just got hundreds of Space Rings, the total content was only about twenty million. They couldn't afford it.

There was no choice but to return them.

The eleven of them reluctantly returned the gloves to Tang Rao.

This thing was too powerful; with it, one could even kneel the late-stage Crossing Calamity unexpectedly.

And if one is already in the late-stage Crossing Calamity, they would dominate their peers to the extent of making others call them 'daddy'...

"Do you all really want this?" Tang Rao asked with a grin.

All eleven nodded. Of course, they wanted it. Who wouldn't?

This was far more brutal than any Spiritual Artifact or treasure, almost like a cheating device for leveling up.

"If you want it, it's possible even without Spirit Stones," Tang Rao suddenly said.

Everyone's eyes lit up, and they all widened their eyes, listening to Tang Rao's next words.

"However, to get something, you first need to learn how to give, right?" Tang Rao asked with a smile.

Everyone nodded; this was an undeniable truth.

"As long as you reach the beginner's stage of Crossing Calamity and pledge loyalty to me for twenty years with a Heavenly Dao oath, you can get a pair of gloves for free," Tang Rao stated straightforwardly.

Among the eleven, only Hu Dadao had reached the beginning stage of Crossing Calamity.

As for the other ten, they were all in the Mahayana Realm, with two at the Mahayana peak.

Everyone looked at Hu Dadao.

Hu Dadao was also conflicted. Following loyally for twenty years was not a short time—twenty years...

But he really wanted the gloves.

Earning Spirit Stones on his own, who knows how long it would take. This time, it was only because he followed Tang Rao that he obtained such a fortune.

Without Tang Rao, as a mere beginner in Crossing Calamity, it would be impossible to earn thirty million Spirit Stones.

His family wasn't rich or owned a big business.

"Dadao, for now, you're the only one who meets the conditions, how will you choose?" Tang Rao asked.

Hu Dadao remained silent, unsure of how to make a choice.

Tang Rao did not rush him, simply standing there in silence.

"Big Brother, I'm now at the peak of Mahayana, I'm Tong Chuan, can I... make an oath to Heavenly Dao in advance?" Tong Chuan cautiously asked from the side.

"You can, but you have to wait until you've reached the initial stage of the tribulation before I can give you the gloves," Tang Rao replied.

"Alright!" Tong Chuan nodded, immediately making a Heavenly Dao Oath to follow and be loyal to Tang Rao for twenty years, and if he betrayed, he would be annihilated by the Heavenly Dao.

Then, three more people made their Heavenly Dao Oaths, willing to devote twenty years for the gloves.

As for the others, none of them spoke, clearly showing their unwillingness.

"Those who are unwilling can leave now. You've also gathered quite a few Spirit Stones, and with breaking off Soul Capture Pavilion as a base, you'll likely draw attention and your cultivation path won't be too bad," Tang Rao said with a smile.

"Big Brother, I take my leave."

"Thank you, Big Brother. If there's ever a need in the future, just let me know and I'll come help."

"That's the word, Big Brother. Everyone has their own aspirations, but if you need me, I'll definitely be there for you."

...

Tang Rao nodded, pleased with their characters, otherwise, they wouldn't have followed him.

But as some of them have said, everyone has their own aspirations.

If it were him, he would probably choose to leave too, not wanting to be bound by anyone, even for great benefits.

Soon, only the four who made the Heavenly Dao Oaths and Hu Dadao were left.

Hu Dadao was still conflicted, seemingly wrestling with himself.

"How about now?" Tang Rao asked.

"I don't know who you truly are, I also don't know what you are going to do, I don't even know your real name," Hu Dadao said.

Lao San surely isn't his real name, he definitely didn't believe that.

"As for my purpose, you can rest assured, I'm not some evil person, nor will I make you do anything against your Dao heart. And as for my name, if you follow me, you will naturally come to know it," Tang Rao stated.

"Fine, I, Hu Dadao..."

Hu Dadao ended up making the Heavenly Dao Oath, partly for the gloves, but more so because he wanted a backer, and this Tang Laosan seemed pretty decent.

At least, he was quite magnanimous towards people.

"Alright, from now on, you guys are my brothers, Tang Rao. You can call me Tang Rao, or boss, whichever, depending on your mood," Tang Rao said.

The five nodded, but then immediately shot their gazes at Tang Rao with shocked expressions.

What did Big Brother just say his name was?

Tang… Tang Rao?

"Don't be so surprised, genuine and true, Tang Rao, the 'Tang' of Tang Rao, the 'Rao' of Tang Rao," saying this, Tang Rao dropped the Illusion Technique from his face, revealing his features.

"Holy shit..." Tong Chuan blurted out loudly.

"Mom, I've latched onto a big leg."

"I feel like this is a major turning point in my life!"

The others murmured, Tang Rao, once the ruler of Central Emperor Realm. No, now, he seems even more incredible and admirable than when he was the ruler of the Central Emperor Realm.

Hu Dadao stood with his mouth agape, completely at a loss for words.

He had always admired Tang Rao, and it had always been his wish to just be able to speak to Tang Rao.

He never imagined that not only would he get to speak to him but would also become Tang Rao's underling.

"If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have hesitated," Hu Dadao remarked.

"But didn't you still agree? This even more so proves that you were convinced by my noble soul and character. Hahaha, it seems like I really do have a dazzling aura," Tang Rao babbled on.
