Chapter 323: That Distant Her

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ro Xin was rendered speechless. It was the first time that she had ever met someone who was even more shameless than Tang Ling.

Tang Ling, on the other hand, did not seem to be in a joking mood. He said, “I think I understand it now, but Ro Xin, what are you trying to tell me? These chances seem distant to us.”

He had no intention of giving up on such a precious opportunity though, especially given his shameless and stubborn personality. Even if he had to dance on the edge of life and death, he would cling onto it tightly. After all, dancing dangerously and wandering at the doorstep of death was not something new to him.

Tang Ling knew Ro Xin had more to say, so he just tried to encourage her to continue.

However, before Ro Xin could answer, Han Xing interrupted, “Bro! Didn’t you hear? All the big factions have reached an agreement this year. They won’t interfere with the competition. Only those who are qualified will be competing for the opportunities and items.”

“What do you mean?” Tang Ling understood it but found it unbelievable.

“So, only those who haven’t become a Purple Moon Warrior are qualified to sail for the opportunities. Tang Ling, didn’t you notice? A lot of young prodigies have gathered in Darkness Port recently,” Ro Xin finally revealed her thoughts.

“Hmm.” Tang Ling did not comment on that. He actually did notice it when he started the Desperado Ring challenge. After he rang the bell, he noticed at least nine Dream Seeds around him, and all of them were around his age. They were teenagers!

It seemed like his intelligence network was severely outdated, and he ought to blame it on the greedy money-face, Boss Huang.

Ro Li was relatively honest and loyal, so he excitedly tapped the table and uttered his thoughts loudly, “Tang Ling, you’ll need a ship to bring us sailing in May next year! If you can recruit more people, enlist them as soon as possible.”

“Recruitment? It sounds like an understatement...How could the young prodigies and the geniuses be recruited this easily?” Han Xing grumbled in a muffled voice.

“What? Aren’t you going to sail with us?” Ro Li glared at Han Xing. He was a simple-minded person. Since Han Xing came over with Tang Ling, he must be his friend, and since they were friends, why would they not sail together?

“Me?” Han Xing suddenly felt ill-fated. Is this pair of siblings dumb? Or are they just too childish with their words?

Tang Ling was amazing, thus Han Xing was very convinced by him. Furthermore, he was also the son of Tang Feng, the man that he admired a lot, but so what? With Tang Ling’s strength, he still could not be the most outstanding among the young prodigies.

Among the young prodigies, Higan was definitely on top of everyone, or maybe she should not be included because the queen was a mysterious figure. Judging from all perspectives, she was not the most reliable and was not ambitious at all.

In other words, the one at the top would be Tang Long.

With Tang Long’s strength and reputation, the power of his call would create a high possibility for him to sail on his own. In contrast, Tang Ling was not influential and powerful enough.

For the few of them, the best way would be joining a big and reliable faction and sail with them.

Han Xing originally planned as such, and the owner of the ring that had invested in him was one of the candidates that he considered. The fat boss was able to own a ring in the junior division of the arena area, so he was definitely not some simple John Doe.

Han Xing was a pervert to the core, a smart one whenever his mind was clear.

“Han Xing, aren’t you coming with us?” Ro Xin also asked.

Right after the question, Han Xing immediately reverted to his corrupted self. He tapped his chest strongly and said, “Of course! I mean, who am I? The honorable and righteous Handsome Han, Han Xing! I’m definitely coming!”

“Haha, Bro! It’s honorable of you to join us!” Ro Li gave him a big thumbs-up.

Han Xing wanted to slap himself a hundred times at that moment. What the hell, man? The four of us? What are we going to be, the Dying Sailors?

All he could do was agree to the invitation, for the time being, then wait for a chance to persuade Tang Ling to join forces with a powerful faction. At least, with Tang Ling’s strength, he would be qualified to negotiate for a collaboration. After that, he would still have to think of a way to swindle a couple of naive young prodigies to join them. Han Xing suddenly felt like he was being paranoid.

On the other hand, Tang Ling did not speak a word as he was calculating all the possible outcomes, figuring out all preparations that must be done, mapping out the best strategy, and taking note of all the important details to form the perfect plan. He had always been a meticulous person.

Ro Xin was smart enough to spare all the childish and naive suggestions. After all, her trust in Tang Ling was not without reason. However, she thought of something and decided to use this topic to connect to what she was about to say.

To her surprise, Gu Dao suddenly made a scene by throwing a tantrum. He ran around the house and laughed frantically.

Had he gone mad?

The young ones, who were discussing important matters at the table, turned to the old man, but Gu Dao did not seem to be bothered or have the slightest intention to explain his maniacal behavior.

On the television that was still broadcasting the arena matches, the bell rang repeatedly and the chime had never felt so familiar to Tang Ling. It was the death knell of the Desperado Ring.

“Yo, man, what day is this? Is the Desperado Ring starting again?” Han Xing widened his eyes in shock.

“Oh, right, Tang Ling, we knew you were the one fighting in the ring yesterday. As expected of the one that I follow! You are simply amazing!” Ro Li gave Tang Ling a big thumbs-up once more.

Frowning slightly, Ro Xin was actually preparing the words in her mind to tell Tang Ling. At least a few hints about Higan’s identity would do. As a friend, she did not want him to find out about Higan’s identity at a later stage because it would be really sad for him.

Yesterday, when she saw Tang Ling and Higan on the television, she felt that they were made for each other and...they had something unusual between them.

Ro Xin felt a little sour in her heart, but she swiftly buried it away. She was also young, so she barely had any knowledge of relationships between genders. Her tender age determined that she would care about pure friendship more than the love between genders which she had yet to understand.

“Huh? You saw the match yesterday? Then, even though I lost, was I amazing?” Han Xing already steered the topic lightyears away while Ro Xing was troubled by her thoughts.

Meanwhile, Han Xing turned to Ro Li and continued his gossip.

Gu Dao ran to the remote control for the paid channel, pressing on it madly and saying to himself, “Another Desperado Ring match! Hurry up! Pay the subscription! Pay it! I want to watch it right now!”

Is it worth all the fuss? Tang Ling pouted. Even though he had taken the lead to challenge the Desperado Ring yesterday, he was still a little curious about who had rung the bell today. Since Darkness Port was currently filled with geniuses, it would be normal for some of them to challenge the ring just because they were not convinced by yesterday’s results.

Should I head back now? Did Higan go over? Should I invite Ro Xin and Ro Li over?

Tang Ling was already thinking about other things.

Gu Dao quickly paid for the match, and shortly after the payment, the familiar and excited voice of the Wailing Pierrot came from the television again. “Yo, yo, yo, my friends! I bet none of you expect to see me again after a day!

“How lucky has Darkness Port been recently? The bell of the Desperado Ring ringing twice in two consecutive days? And both times in the junior division? My smart audience, have you noticed the unusual scent in the air?

“Let’s have a look who is the ring defender today! Is it some random unknown guy like Mad Tiger yesterday, who jumped out of nowhere, or a well-known figure who won’t hide his identity and excite us even more?

“Oh my goodness! This is a surprise! This is a surprise that I didn’t see coming! A huge surprise indeed!” The Wailing Pierrot’s voice suddenly became sharp and high-pitched. His high pitch was caused by extreme excitement and his voice attracted everyone’s attention in the house.

On the big television screen, the Wailing Pierrot was pounding the floor of the ring frantically. Unlike Tang Ling, who had stepped into the ring early yesterday, the one who rang the bell today had not shown up.

‘What is wrong with him?’ Tang Ling grumbled in his heart. The Wailing Pierrot was making a scene out of this. However, for some unknown reason, Tang Ling started to frown.

“It’s him! It’s him! Who am I talking about? I think it’s best for me to keep his name to myself. Ladies and gentlemen, feast your eyes on our ring defender today. Call out his name yourself when you see him!” The Wailing Pierrot was as exaggerative as ever with his high-pitched voice.

Then, the camera panned to beneath the ring.

In order to create a focused effect, a beam of spotlight was cast beneath the ring, captivating the attention of the audience.

Tang Ling looked a little lonely yesterday in comparison.

Under the spotlight, the tall and straight figure appeared in a white uniform. Instead of appearing luxurious, his fashion style was plain, yet it granted him a sense of elegance and grandeur. Above all, it made him look very clean and neat.

With his clean and elegant presence setting the stage, his already handsome looks stood out even more. Every flicker of his gaze and expression was like that of the son of Huaxianese deities or sages.

The ladies present in the audience were screaming his name and the infatuated screams were ceaseless.

“Young Master Long!”

“Tang Long!”

He did not care about the bewitched screams because those screams would never get close to him. His gaze was only for the girl in front of him.

“Bless me, will you?” Tang Long smiled, his eyes soft with a sense of anticipation. Amidst the ceaseless frantic and infatuated screams, he brazenly showed a different sentiment to her. He was loyal and focused.

No one was able to be jealous of the girl because the girl in front of Tang Long was none other than the queen, Higan.

Her own radiance even trumped Tang Long’s, so how could people be jealous of her?

Her presence would only raise doubts in people’s minds. What had been with the match yesterday? Was it a magic trick the two of them played just so they could fool around longer in the Desperado Ring?

However, both Higan and Tang Long would never give the people the answer they sought. Their lives were like celebrities of the old civilization. People could only fantasize but could never learn the truth.

Higan smiled as she said to Tang Long softly, “Victory will be in your hands.”

“Mmm, my victory will be for you.” Tang Long reached out and stroked Higan’s hair with the tip of his fingers.

“Aaaahh!” The ladies in the audience screamed. They were so excited that they almost passed out.

“I can’t! I’m dying! This scene is just too, toooo...” Some younger ones who still had a fantasy about Tang Long even fell into the arms of the people beside them.

The two of them were perfect for each other, and the deep affection from Tang Long drove the sentimental ladies mad. No one was jealous though as the perfect man could only be matched with the perfect woman.

While people envied Tang Long and Higan, they were also forgetful. The blinding scene of the duo made everyone forget about yesterday, or rather, people automatically assumed that the duo from yesterday was Tang Long and Higan. They were so perfect together, so a tinge of mischief made them a little more interesting.

“Go get them,” Higan said softly. She stood beneath the ring like she did yesterday and watched Tang Long enter the ring. Unlike yesterday, she was not wearing that crude-looking mask.

“I will.” Tang Long paused for a gaze at her with a kind and affectionate smile.

Gu Dao immediately turned to Tang Ling. Han Xing could not bear with the situation but he also looked at Tang Ling in doubt.

At the same time, Ro Li boldly gazed at Tang Ling. ‘Oh, thank goodness I looked at him.’

Ro Xin was slightly sad and was worried when she looked at her friend.
