Chapter 257. Xiao Wu's Sacrifice.
Upon hearing this, Tang San, Tang Hao, and Ah Yin all turned their gazes towards Qian Xunji.
Tang San and Tang Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Having their woman (their mother) sacrificed in exchange for their own survival was, for them, better off dead.
But Ah Yin was anxious.
"Qian Xunji, isn't that what you meant just now? What do you want me to do to let Xiao San and Brother Hao go?" Ah Yin said indignantly. Qian Xunji said, "I mean, you're not worth the price."
"What do you mean?" Ah Yin asked.
"You can only let Tang Hao go," Qian Xunji said, shaking his finger.
"What?" Ah Yin sat on the ground, stunned.
"Qian thief, kill me or chop me up, all you want. Threatening a woman is nothing," Tang Hao roared.
As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Xunji stamped on his mouth, silencing him.
"You idiot, you have no right to speak here," Qianxunji said, glancing at Tang Hao.
"Then what will it take to get Xiao San to let go?" Ah Yin asked, tears welling in her eyes.
"Whether you can let that bastard go, your choice is unimportant."
Qianxunji smiled wickedly and pointed a finger at a location—
Xiao Wu, who had just been the center of attention but was gradually being forgotten.
"That depends on the rabbit's choice."
Tang San looked at Xiao Wu, who hadn't expected Qianxunji to choose her.
A flicker of unease crossed Tang San's heart. Given Qianxunji's nature, he would definitely force Xiao Wu to obey him next. Damn it—
"What do you want me to do?" Xiao Wu, as if aware of her order, gave Xiao San a gentle look, then looked resolutely at Qianxunji.
"I, want you to sacrifice yourself to—" At this point, Qianxunji couldn't help but frown. With a hundred thousand year all-purpose spirit ring, who the hell would care about a worthless spirit ring like Xiao Wu?
But forcing Xiao Wu to sacrifice herself in front of Tang San was a necessary procedure, so they could only find another trash can to recycle this junk spirit ring.
Qian Xunji pointed at Liu Erlong and said, "Her!"
Liu Erlong was stunned, then shook her head and said, "No, I don't want it. I don't want this spirit ring."
Liu Erlong could see that Xiao Wu and Tang San had a close relationship, and Tang San was both Master and son. If she took Xiao Wu's spirit ring, it would mean a complete severance of their relationship.
Indeed, even now, Liu Erlong still held out a glimmer of hope for Yu Xiaogang.
"Erlong, haven't you always longed for a hundred thousand year spirit ring? You are my concubine, how could I, Qian Xunji, treat you badly? Don't be polite, Xiao Wu's spirit ring is yours."
"No, I don't want it, Qian Xunji, don't give it to me," Liu Erlong said defiantly.
When the other spirit masters saw this scene, they wished they could replace you, Liu Erlong, right then and there. You don't want the hundred thousand year spirit ring that other spirit masters are so eager to get. Are you cheap?
"Erlong, how could you not want it?" Qianxunji said earnestly, "If you don't want it, I will be so sad. What if Xiaogang..."
Hearing this, he looked at Qianxunji with despair, then looked at Yu Xiaogang. In the end, for Xiaogang's safety, Liu Erlong could only remain silent.
Yu Xiaogang gritted his teeth and looked at Qianxunji. He also heard it. This damn Qianxunji used me to threaten my woman again. Humiliation, too fucking humiliating. Qianthief, I, Xiaogang, will never coexist with you.
"So what do you mean?" Qianxunji said playfully to Xiaowu. "You can refuse, or you can agree."
Xiaowu let out a mournful laugh. "Even if I refuse, will I still be alive?" Qianxunji smiled without saying anything.
Xiaowu arrived before Tang San, who was still pinned to his knees. His eyes, red with blood, saw Xiaowu approaching, and their former tenderness returned.
"Xiaowu," Tang San said tenderly.
Xiaowu looked at Tang San lovingly, cradling his head and kissing him, before saying her final goodbyes. "Sangiegie, I'm sorry I can't spend the rest of my life with you. You're the last family I have. I've already lost my mother, Da Ming, Er Ming, and the others. I can't bear to see you wiped out by the Spirit Hall. I can't bear losing you anymore. Live well."
"No, Xiaowu, no, no—" Tang San wailed.
"Sangiegie, live well," Xiaowu said.
With that, Xiao Wu walked towards Liu Erlong with a determined look. She wanted to live, too, but for Sangiegie's survival, she was willing to sacrifice everything.
Liu Erlong's face was filled with despair. She knew that if she accepted the spirit ring, she would never be able to return to Shrek Academy, but for Xiaogang...
In Tang San's eyes, Xiao Wu ignited herself, transforming into a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring.
Tang San had witnessed this scene in his previous life, but the difference was that in the previous life, Xiao Wu sacrificed herself to him, while in this life, Xiao Wu sacrificed to Liu Erlong.
Unable to break free from the Titled Douluo's suppression, Tang San could only watch helplessly as Xiao Wu sacrificed herself, ultimately transforming into Liu Erlong's eighth spirit ring.
Tang San's eyes were red, and he was breathing heavily. He was filled with resentment, yet he also hated his own weakness.
If only he had the power of a God King in his previous life, he wouldn't have ended up in such a predicament, and Xiao Wu wouldn't have been forced to sacrifice herself.
While the spirit ring went to Liu Erlong, the spirit bone Qianxunji naturally recovered.
"Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu," the usually resolute Tang San wept.
At this moment, a snow-white rabbit descended from the center of Xiao Wu's sacrifice, looking around in confusion.
Tang San's eyes flickered with hope as he saw the rabbit.
Yes, with this rabbit, Xiao Wu could be resurrected.
However—
Tang San's hope had barely risen when it was snuffed out.
Qianxunji grasped the rabbit by the scruff of its neck and lifted it up.
"Let it go, let it go, Qianzei! You've already forced Xiao Wu to sacrifice herself, so why wouldn't you spare her body too?" Tang San roared, his eyes red and breathless.
Qianxunji ignored Tang San's impotent rage and used his divine power to stabilize the rabbit's fading spirit. He held the white rabbit in his hand and signaled to the Cardinal, who immediately retreated.
After he left, a group of soldiers arrived a while later carrying a large iron cage. Inside the cage
were a group of soft-boned rabbits.
