They've followed Tang Rao for so many years, to put it bluntly, they even understand him better than the women around him. They've always thought Tang Rao would never choose someone unfamiliar as a Vice Sect Leader, but life is unpredictable, who can be a hundred percent sure Tang Rao's mind won't waver?
They all thought they couldn't continue being Vice Sect Leaders, but thankfully, despite Fu Lun's undeniable strength, Tang Rao still bluntly rejected Fu Lun's request.
Losing the benefits of two brothers for an unfamiliar man is something Tang Rao would never do.
"Huh? Starting from the bottom means I'll be just a lackey, doing all kinds of chores? Forget it, I'll just help you honestly, finish the task early, and not become some lousy Vice Sect Leader."
Fu Lun, at such an age, still tries to bargain with Tang Rao, thinking Tang Rao is someone who can be easily convinced with just a few words?
"That's not right, you asked me to arrange a job for you, it's not reasonable to stop talking now."
Fu Lun was about to cry. He thought Tang Rao was shameless, but he never expected Tang Rao to be shameless to this extent.
"You people from the Kao Shan Sect are really strange, you're strange too, forget it, I'll just adapt to the environment, one day I'll find a way to become a Vice Sect Leader."
Fu Lun easily compromised. When Tang Rao heard the first half, he felt this person was not bad, but listening to the second half, he felt it changed the meaning completely.
This kid is still thinking about becoming a Vice Sect Leader?
"Boss, I have something to do, I'm leaving first."
Cha Xiangzi is that Vice Sect Leader, he didn't want to hear another word from Fu Lun. Wanting to become a Vice Sect Leader of the Kao Shan Sect is not something that can be done with just words and a bit of strength; what's important is understanding people and unifying the Kao Shan Sect top to bottom. Fu Lun, who just arrived, can he do it?
Instead of listening to Fu Lun's nonsense, it's better to go down and get his own work done.
"Boss, I suddenly remembered a small sect has been provoking our Kao Shan Sect recently. I'll take some people to resolve that sect first, so I won't keep you company."
Even Geng Bucuo with his rough nerves couldn't stand Fu Lun, but considering he can't beat him, he thought it best to let it be.
"All right, go ahead, I have matters to attend to as well."
Geng Bucuo and Cha Xiangzi both left; what about Fu Lun, with no one to guide him, Tang Rao thought and thought, then suddenly remembered someone.
He slyly eyed Lu Jun.
"Lu Jun, you've seemed pretty free lately, how about helping Fu Lun get familiar with the Kao Shan Sect's culture and origin?"
The moment such an honorable yet arduous task fell to Lu Jun, everyone else except Lu Jun breathed a sigh of relief.
They were fortunate the task didn't fall upon them, as no one would ever want to form a relationship with such a nuisance.
"Fu Lun, you did so well on Central Island, yet you're not favored at my Kao Shan Sect. Your heart must be quite heavy, huh?"
Tang Rao didn't forget to add insult to injury, clearly seeing Fu Lun was being shunned to the extreme and still teased him, causing an unspeakable pang in his heart at that moment.
"I think it's great, this is the life I want, thank you, and by the way, I'm sorry, my choices disappointed you."
Tang Rao wanted to see Fu Lun make a fool of himself? Fu Lun had been aggrieved for so long, he certainly wouldn't let Tang Rao have his way now.
He just wanted to be happy, not giving Tang Rao the chance to continue mocking him.
"Not disappointed, I'm sorry for your trouble."
His face was like the March sunshine, showing a row of white teeth when smiling; but the happier Tang Rao looked, the bigger the knot in Fu Lun's heart grew.
In terms of strength, Fu Lun would definitely win against Tang Rao, but in terms of shamelessness, Fu Lun would surely lose. Don't ask why; the skill of shamelessness is innate—some are naturally gifted, while others just aren't as good; it's not anyone else's fault, it's just lack of talent.
Back at Kao Shan Sect, having done nothing all day, the time passed like there's no tomorrow. If it were before, he quite enjoyed this kind of playful life and might even find it fulfilling. But now, it's different. The more days he spends like this, the longer his mother suffers at Motherly Mountain.
Mother?
Right, didn't Tang Rao and his mother add each other as friends and use Illusion City?
Before, who knows how many years would pass before they could meet. Ever since having Illusion City, he could see his mother anytime he wished.
Tang Rao returned to his courtyard, shut the door, and immediately entered Illusion City to connect with his mother.
"Mom, Dad gave me everything you asked him to give me. He also brought me back to the Tang Family, is this what you requested from Dad?"
Only a mother would be so selfless, giving all those heavenly materials and treasures made Tang Rao's eyes blur and made him declare himself the richest person in the Divine Realm.
Besides gifting him a heavenly net, that stingy father gave him nothing else, compared to his mother, Dad was definitely the champion of stinginess.
And Tang Qingqing had said long ago, Tang Lei never intended to bring him back; the reason for taking Tang Rao was entirely Fang Fang's suggestion.
"Yes, it was indeed I who mentioned it to your father, Rao Er, did your father restore your memory?"
Fang Fang noticed Tang Rao's gaze toward her changed somewhat.
Previously when looking at Fang Fang, Tang Rao's eyes were full of admiration and curiosity.
But today, when he saw Fang Fang, his eyes were full of pity and helplessness.
The contrast between then and now became quite evident.
"Yes, Dad restored my memory; whether it's from the previous Tang Rao or the deceased one, I know it all."
Those memories Tang Rao fought for now truly became a burden for him.
Almost all of his pressure, if not a hundred percent, at least ninety percent, originated from his past life's memories.
"I knew, I knew if your dad allowed you to return, he would definitely do this, why is Brother Lei so foolish?"
Fang Fang looked at Tang Rao with compassion, her son was originally very happy, but those memories changed him forever.
"This has nothing to do with Dad, both he and Sister have advised me, but I wouldn't listen, insisted on doing things my way."
Tang Rao wouldn't deny the fault of his actions.
"You?"
Fang Fang sat on the grass, amidst the garden she had just tended, appearing particularly lonely.
"Could it be Mom thinks there's anything I don't want to do, and someone could force me into it?"
Tang Rao gave Fang Fang a reassuring smile through the screen.
"Hearing you say that, Mom feels relieved."
