His clothes were torn?
Tang Li was in a hurry to put on his clothes, so he did not notice that his clothes were torn. He looked down and realized that they were really torn.
Han Yunxi's bright eyes darted around as she looked at him with interest.
Tang Li felt guilty. He covered his torn collar and said calmly, "I'm tired. I'm going to rest."
"Tang Li, your clothes were torn, right?" Han Yunxi asked suspiciously. What happened to this guy when he was running away for a day and a night? How could his clothes be torn?
"I … I …"
Tang Li usually lied without blushing, but this time, he was extremely guilty. He even stuttered, "I, I … Aiya, don't mention it. I was caught by the Tang Sect. They wouldn't let me go. I almost took off my clothes and gave them to them! Luckily, I was smart and ran away quickly. "
"Oh …"
Han Yunxi's tone was full of meaning.
Tang Li knew that she did not believe him. He was too lazy to argue with her and wanted to leave in a hurry. Unexpectedly, Long Fei Ye said, "Where are your shoes?"
Uh …
Tang Li ran away in a hurry and did not realize that he was barefoot.
"I … I …"
He stuttered even more when he faced Long Fei Ye.
"What's going on!" Long Fei Ye said sternly like a strict brother.
Tang Li would rather die than tell him the truth. It would hurt his pride as a man! It would ruin his image! How could he marry a wife in the future?
Although he was full of resentment, he suddenly did not understand why he ran back and did not kill that woman.
"I, I even took off my shoes and gave them to them!"
Tang Li stammered. He was afraid that Long Fei Ye would notice his strange behavior, so he pretended to be out of breath and could not speak. He quickly changed the topic. "Brother … My father is serious this time. You … you have to save me!"
Long Fei Ye knew that Tang Li was lying, but he was too lazy to investigate why he looked like this.
Coldly, he asked, "Do you know who your fiancée is?"
"No matter who she is, I …"
Before Tang Li could finish, Long Fei Ye cut in Cold. "Cang Qiuzi's daughter, Cang Qiuying."
Tang Li was stunned!
Although the people on Tianshan Mountain did not know about the relationship between the Tang Sect and Long Fei Ye, he had gone to Tianshan Mountain several times on behalf of Long Fei Ye. Under the arrangements of Long Fei Ye's confidants, he had secretly inquired about the old man in Kenzō.
He knew both Cang Qiuzi and Cang Qiuying.
"Has my father gone mad?" Tang Li grew serious.
Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi would never tell Tang Li about Tang Zijin's motives. In his panic, Tang Li didn't think much of it and only assumed that his father was causing more trouble for Long Fei Ye.
Tianshan Mountain was already in enough trouble with Duanmu Yao, but now the Tang Clan had provoked them as well. It was a complete mess.
Cang Qiuzi was a man who haggled over every detail and was even shrewder than a businessman. He must have a motive for allying himself with the Tang Clan, so he would never allow them to break off the engagement. Even if he did, he would still reap some benefits from the Tang Clan. Otherwise, he wouldn't leave the matter at that.
"No wonder I ran into such a strong ambush when I was running away!" Tang Li muttered to himself.
"Cang Qiuzi is pressing you very hard. Be careful these days and don't let your father catch you," Long Fei Ye said.
"I know!" Tang Li was serious as well.
But five days later, a piece of news shook Cloud Realm Continent and pushed Tang Li into the eye of the storm. He couldn't even hide from it.
The news was that the Ouyang Trade Consortium's executive chairman, Ouyang Ning Jing, had been defiled by the eldest young master of the Tang Clan, Tang Li. The Ouyang Trade Consortium had sent a large group of people to block the Tang Clan's gates and demanded that they hand over Tang Li.
Tang Li would either marry into the Ouyang Trade Consortium or die!
It was obvious that Ouyang Ning Jing had used those needles to find out Tang Li's identity. Only Eldest Young Master Tang of the Tang Clan could possess such weapons and an extraordinary aura like a white-robed immortal.
As soon as Han Yunxi heard this, she recalled Tang Li's disheveled state when he came back that day and broke out in cold sweat. She knew that there was an 80 to 90 percent chance that the rumors were true.
Tang Li was perfectly fine all of a sudden, so why … why did he do something so stupid?! No matter how romantic or lecherous he was, he couldn't do anything to Ouyang Ning Jing!
After all, Ouyang Ning Jing was a member of the Di Clan's Ning Clan and Ning Cheng's little sister!
Tang Li's ability to stir up trouble was no less than his father's!
Han Yunxi immediately rushed to Tang Li's courtyard, only to see that Long Fei Ye had long arrived and was interrogating Tang Li.
"Are you going to talk or not?" Long Fei Ye asked coldly.
Tang Li remained silent.
"Fine, you deal with it yourself. Scram back to the Tang Clan immediately! "Long Fei Ye was furious.
Neither the Ning Clan nor Celestial Mountain knew the true relationship between the Tang Clan and Long Fei Ye. They only knew that Tang Li and Long Fei Ye were friends. For now, it didn't seem like it would affect Long Feiye directly.
But as the older brother, how could he just ignore it? How could that be?
Tang Li peeked pitifully at Long Fei Ye as if to speak, but stopped himself. When he saw Han Yunxi walk over, he resentfully lowered his head and kept silent.
"Still not talking?!"
Long Fei Ye roared. He wasn't patient enough to take out his whip to teach Tang Li a lesson.
Han Yunxi rushed over and snatched Long Fei Ye's whip away. On the sidelines, Chu Xifeng's views of the world were refreshed. In his impression, no one in the world dared to steal His Highness Duke of Qin's weapons, whether it was a whip or a sword.
Han Yunxi, you've won again.
"Alright, alright! It's not like it's a big deal, "Han Yunxi coaxed helplessly as she held down Long Fei Ye's whip.
"It's not a big deal?"
The two brothers both looked towards her, especially Long Fei Ye's gaze. It was enough to kill. Han Yunxi hastened to explain. "What I mean is, if Cloud Realm Trade Consortium wants to find the Tang Clan, then let them. Cang Qiuzi wants to cause trouble for the Tang Clan too. Go back and tell Tang Zijin to have the two clans fight. Whoever wins will send Tang Li to their home. "
Han Yunxi was obviously joking, but Long Fei Ye was serious. "It's not necessarily a bad idea."
Tang Li asked timidly, "Big bro, what are you planning to do?"
"Just what's going on?" Long Fei Ye's icy voice almost froze Tang Li. He hesitated for a long time before telling him the whole story.
Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi's expressions changed at the end.
"You two swear not to tell a third person!" Tang Li demanded seriously.
"Just how useless are you?!"
Long Fei Ye's rage reached the skies, but Han Yunxi couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Tang Li, it looks like you're not the one who's losing out. I heard Ouyang Ning Jing's a beauty. You're quite lucky with women, you brat!"
She recalled the classic opening of a domineering CEO novel. Unfortunately, Ouyang Ning Jing didn't use drugs to steal seeds to make babies.
She had to have a motive for doing so.
Tang Li didn't know how to answer Han Yunxi anymore. Han Yunxi continued, "I've long heard that Cloud Realm Trade Consortium's Executive Director doesn't marry outside the family. So it turns out she took a liking to you and set you up to marry into her family?"
Ouyang Ning Jing had done such a thing and even publicly accused Tang Li of bullying her. It was obvious that she was relying on Tang Li and the Tang Clan's face to avoid exposing the truth.
It had to be said that this woman was ruthless and shameless enough.
No wonder she was able to stabilize Cloud Realm Trade Consortium in such a short time after Ouyang Ning Nuo's downfall and even hooked up with Northern Li's imperial family.
Although Han Yunxi despised Tang Li as well, she knew that aphrodisiac could crush any man's willpower. She couldn't blame Tang Li entirely for his carelessness.
Han Yunxi came up with a plan and said, "Since that's the case, why don't we do it for real?"
"What do you mean?" Long Fei Ye asked.
"Let's have Tang Li express his goodwill to Ouyang Ning Jing and use the chance to break into Cloud Realm Trade Consortium. That way, we'll be able to control the movements of the consortium and the Ning Clan. Secondly, we can borrow the consortium's strength to deal with Cang Qiuzi while we sit back and watch the tigers fight. Thirdly … "Han Yunxi smiled." Tang Li has to get his revenge no matter what! "
Long Fei Ye glanced at Tang Li, only to see the man nod seriously. Then he gave Han Yunxi a thumbs up. "Sister-in-law is brilliant. I, Tang Li, will definitely get my revenge!"
"The Tang Clan is still attractive to Ning Cheng," Long Fei Ye said.
They still needed Tang Zijin to facilitate this. After all, Tang Li had gone with them to rescue Gu Beiyue last time, so Ning Cheng wouldn't trust him.
If Tang Zijin was the clan head, things would be much easier. Ning Cheng would never expect the Tang Clan to be Long Fei Ye's subordinates.
That very day, Long Fei Ye wrote a letter to Tang Zijin to tell him the truth. Tang Zijin was so furious that he almost rushed back to Yaoshui Prefecture to kill Tang Li!
That brat had thrown away all of the Tang Clan's face!
But after seeing Long Fei Ye's plan, he held himself back and went to find Aunt Ru to discuss the matter.
"If we can fight our way into the Di Clan, it'll be more important than Cang Qiuzi's strength," Tang Zijin said seriously.
"Then will Li 'er agree?" Aunt Ru asked hastily.
"Can he refuse?" Tang Zijin was still fuming.
"Calm down. Do you think Li 'er will really lose out in something like this? If there's anyone to blame, blame that cheap Ouyang Ning Jing for being so shameless. Li 'er can only endure the humiliation this time. Once he breaks into Cloud Realm Trade Consortium, he'll have to worry about revenge in the future. "
As Aunt Ru spoke, she added, "Clan Head, there's been no progress with the Shadow Clan last time. Han Yunxi is still a hidden danger. If Han Yunxi really is from Western Qin, could she be colluding with the Di Clan to harm Feiye? "
Tang Zijin rolled his eyes at her, clearly disdaining her for suspecting too much.
"For now, let's take care of Li 'er's matter," Tang Zijin said.
The next day, Tang Zijin used his status as Tang Clan Head to spread news that Tang Li would take care of Ouyang Ning Jing until the end, but he wouldn't marry her into her family. At the same time, he announced Tang Li and Cang Qiuying's marriage to express his apologies to the Cang Clan and formally annul the engagement. Tang Li's actions were his fault for not teaching him well enough, so he was willing to compensate the Cang Clan for all their losses.
Cloud Realm Continent was thrown into an uproar at the news.
Ning Cheng was still fuming over Ning Jing's decision to act first and report later, so he was surprised by the news. He never expected the Tang Clan to have an engagement with Celestial Mountain.
He hesitated for awhile before telling Ouyang Ning Jing, "Don't fight with Cang Qiuzi right now. Duanmu Yao's still a problem, so don't make trouble for me!"
Ouyang Ning Jing gave a cold snort. "Is your little sister's chastity and marriage so unimportant?"
Ning Cheng arched a brow. "Ning Jing, the people outside might believe that Tang Li humiliated you, but your lordship doesn't believe it!"
This damned girl had sent men to surround the Tang Clan and spread the news before telling him she'd been bullied by Tang Li. Based on his understanding of her, he'd rather believe that she'd schemed against Tang Li!
"Big bro, it doesn't matter what you believe or not. In any case, I'm already one of Tang Li's people. Even if you don't provoke Cang Qiuzi, I won't allow the Cang Clan to steal my husband! "
