Douluo V: I intercepted Xiao Wu at the start, and I tricked Tang San into becoming crippled.

After all, in the current Heaven Dou royal family, those who have survived to this day as princes are few and far between.

Then none of them will be stupid!

Since Xiao Chen now possesses a considerable background and terrifying potential, and has also been favored by the aloof Dugu Bo, who directly married off his granddaughter Dugu Yan, it's clear that...

So what if he, as a prince, made a small investment in the other party?

As a prince of the empire, he had plenty of money and connections.

Money can be regained, but such a good opportunity to curry favor with someone might only come once in a lifetime.

Of course.

He was lucky; he hadn't yet formed a blood feud with Xiao Chen, so there was still room for maneuver.

"can."

Xiao Chen pretended to think about it for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

After all, he came here to take advantage of the situation, so naturally he wouldn't refuse the benefits offered by Prince Xuexing.

As for the other party blaming Tang San for everything and accusing themselves of misjudging people, instead of blaming him for his cleverness in offending Tang San, it's a different story.

He simply ignored it.

After all, the other party still has other uses for him...

"Humph!"

At the same time, Ning Rongrong stepped forward after seeing that Xiao Chen had finished dealing with his matter.

First, he put his hands on his hips, then raised one of them and pointed it directly at Dugu Bo, shouting.

"Dugu Bo, don't talk nonsense! When did Xiao Chen say he was going to marry Dugu Yan!"

"Even if I were to marry someone, I would marry this young lady first. How could this young lady be younger than that guy Dugu Yan!"

Upon seeing this, the experienced Prince Xuexing fell silent on the spot.

He shouldn't get involved in other people's family affairs; he should just pretend he didn't hear anything.

As for Dugu Bo, he completely ignored Ning Rongrong, turned to look at Xiao Chen, and said with a smile.

"I forgot to turn off the lights at home, Xiao Chen. You go ahead and do your work. I'm going back now. Feel free to contact me if you need anything."

"As for when you and Yan'er will hold a wedding banquet, or if you don't like the hassle and just get engaged privately, it's fine either way. Anyway, I don't like to follow so many rules."

After saying this, Dugu Bo pretended to be stupid and left, disappearing on the spot.

In the past, Dugu Bo would not have been polite to juniors who dared to offend him, even if they were descendants of titled Douluo or heiresses like Ning Rongrong, who possessed the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

At best, they would take action to intimidate; at worst, they would kill everyone and completely block the news.

After all, only the dead can protect secrets!

But now, he has completely sided with Xiao Chen, and it is Xiao Chen's girlfriend who is speaking now.

Then naturally everything will be fine.

He wasn't cowardly; rather, he simply didn't have the option to be selectively generous.

As for Ning Rongrong's words just now?

Anyway, his granddaughter and Xiao Chen have already slept together, so it doesn't matter whether she's the eldest or the youngest; her status is what it is in public.

In short, my retirement life is secure!

And what about Prince Xuexing, who saved his life?

He believed the other party knew what to do.

After all, unless someone has lost their mind and been inexplicably demoted in intelligence.

Otherwise, Prince Xuexing is perceptive enough to know what the best course of action is.

"Farewell, Senior Dugu~"

"You bunch of useless trash! You didn't even bother to tell me when Senior Dugu came, and you did the same when Young Master Xiao came. What use are you anyway?"

Seeing that Dugu Bo had left, Prince Xuexing began to reprimand his trusted confidant.

Although Dugu Bo has already left, with his strength as a Title Douluo, the other party can still hear what he says.

For titled Douluo and those with powerful identities, the favor of these people is extremely important!

"Everyone, your entire six months' salary is forfeited to cover Young Master Xiao's expenses for this trip! What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and apologize to Young Master Xiao!"

Upon hearing this, the dozens of guards immediately complied.

As for resentment or anything like that?

They have absolutely nothing.

After all, trading six months' worth of income for one's life is definitely worth it.

Moreover, as long as they continue to follow someone like Prince Xuexing, the rewards or good jobs he might suddenly give them on a whim could be more than their income over several years!

"Young Master Xiao, we were wrong!"

"..."

Upon seeing this, Tang San's eyes immediately turned red, and his heart was filled with resentment.

In his view, Xiao Chen used handsome men to lure Title Douluos into working for him.

The same was true for the titled Douluo next to Xiao Chen, who was covered in golden light.

Xiao Chen, you're so despicable!

However, since you can do it, this noble disciple of the Tang Clan can naturally do it as well.

Just you wait.

In the future, this noble Tang Sect disciple will surely win over the sons and grandsons of many Title Douluo and make them work for him.

At that time, you will definitely be trampled underfoot by this noble Tang Clan disciple!

As for why she isn't the daughter or granddaughter of a Title Douluo?

That's because, under the influence of the "forgiveness hat," he no longer has any interest in women.

"It doesn't matter."

The next moment, Xiao Chen nodded slightly, and then suddenly spoke.

"Prince Xuexing, didn't you have something to ask me? In that case, how about we make a deal..."

Chapter 225 Prince Xuexing's Sincerity, Xiao Chen and Rongrong Soak in a Hot Spring

"To be precise, it should be considered a collaboration."

"cooperate?"

Upon hearing Xiao Chen's words, Prince Xuexing's smile suddenly froze, and he became more serious than ever before.

As the heir of a reclusive family or sect, the cooperation they speak of is certainly not simple in terms of weight and value.

Xiao Chen paid no attention to Prince Xuexing's nervousness and continued to speak to himself.

"The cooperation is simple. I will answer three questions that do not involve the bottom line. In return, you will give me a large quantity of special metals and convenient channels for me to purchase the corresponding metals in the future."

"How about we each get what we need?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Prince Xuexing instantly understood.

In his view, Xiao Chen and his family should have already made contact with the flying sword blacksmith.

hiss!

That was a master blacksmith capable of creating a level 80, seven-ring Soul Saint Flying Sword; Tang San, under his command, was simply incomparable.

The two are like the moon and a candle flame, completely incomparable.

However, although he greatly admired Xiao Chen, now that Dugu Bo had sided with him, he naturally had no reason to confront Xiao Chen head-on.

To be precise, he no longer has the right to confront the other party head-on and conduct a fair transaction.

Having thought of this, Prince Xuexing did not delay any longer, lest he displease the other party, and readily agreed.

"can!"

Since there's no way to monopolize all the benefits, and it's not feasible to win over the master who forged the flying sword, then it's better to befriend Xiao Chen.

In this way, the two sides may not be able to become friends, but at least they will not be enemies in the future.

Even when the other party becomes successful and needs someone to help them, they might remember how sensible he was that day and give him a hand, or even a little something to eat.

In short, if you can't beat them, join them!

"Shall I start asking now?"

"can."

Xiao Chen nodded calmly.
