Join Tang San and Get Xiao Wu

Meng Bei didn't bother to dwell on Tang Hao's past decisions. Instead, he turned to Ning Fengzhi and said:

"Father-in-law, you may not know this, but I have a close friend and sworn brother named Tang San. His father is none other than the Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao!"

"Oh?"

Ning Fengzhi immediately perked up.

Meng Bei continued:

"Previously, I happened to save Tang Hao's life by chance. As a result, he swore brotherhood with me, treating me as his elder brother and himself as the younger. He is a loyal and devoted man who listens to my every word."

"What?"

Ning Fengzhi's jaw dropped in disbelief.

Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, and Dugu Bo were equally dumbfounded.

They understood every word Meng Bei said, yet putting them together seemed completely absurd.

"Sworn brothers with Tang Hao? And you're the elder brother?"

Was this even humanly possible?

Even the composed Ning Fengzhi found the claim far-fetched, his lips twitching as he said:

"Son-in-law, let's not joke around. I've already agreed to let Poison Douluo join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. You don't need to spin wild tales."

Meng Bei understood how unbelievable his story sounded, so he proposed:

"If you don't believe me, Father-in-law, you can accompany me to Holy Soul Village in Nuoding City. My brother Tang Hao lives there. We can verify everything firsthand."

Ning Fengzhi hesitated but saw how confidently Meng Bei spoke. Given the specific details, he began to believe it might be true.

"Could it really be possible?"

Little did he know, Tang Hao had already become Meng Bei's servant. If Meng Bei wanted, he could simply summon Tang Hao to kneel before them.

But Meng Bei thought such theatrics might terrify Ning Fengzhi, so he decided to go through proper channels instead.

It also gave Meng Bei the opportunity to retrieve Ah Yin and her spirit bone from Tang Hao—a double win.

Seeing that Ning Fengzhi was warming up to the idea, Meng Bei pressed further:

"Right now, my sworn brother Tang Hao is preparing to reclaim the Clear Sky Clan's leadership. If Father-in-law is willing to assist him, the Clear Sky Clan will surely answer the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan's call. With that, how can we fail?"

Ning Fengzhi nodded repeatedly.

Tang Hao was the rightful heir to the Clear Sky Clan, a prodigy and the youngest Title Douluo, wielding a 100,000-year soul ring.

From a purely strength-based perspective, he was far better suited to lead the clan than Tang Xiao.

If Meng Bei's claims were true, there was indeed a high chance of success.

Even without Tang Hao, simply adding Dugu Bo as a Title Douluo to the clan was already a huge gain.

Finally, Ning Fengzhi made up his mind:

"Alright! I'll agree to your request. Poison Douluo will join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan as an elder!"

Meng Bei's face lit up as he served tea to Ning Fengzhi and said:

"Thank you, Father-in-law, for your understanding!"

But Ning Fengzhi raised his hand to stop him:

"Not so fast! There's one condition!"

Meng Bei kept smiling and said:

"No need for conditions, Father-in-law. Just tell me, and I'll comply."

Ning Fengzhi chuckled, patting Meng Bei's head:

"You sly fox! No wonder you won over my daughter!"

He then grew serious and said:

"Listen carefully—my condition is that you marry Rongrong within three months and give me a grandchild within a year. No exceptions!"

"Uh…"

Meng Bei hesitated and said:

"Father-in-law, isn't Rongrong still too young? Shouldn't we wait a few more years?"

"What nonsense!"

Ning Fengzhi slapped Meng Bei's head lightly.

"You're one to talk! You're not that old yourself, yet you already got Dugu Bo's granddaughter pregnant. No more excuses—you'll follow my orders!"

Meng Bei finally understood Ning Fengzhi's reasoning.

It wasn't just about marriage; Ning Fengzhi was worried about maintaining Rongrong's status.

He feared that Meng Bei and Dugu Yan's child might grow up first and pose a threat to Rongrong's inheritance.

Since Meng Bei couldn't exactly reveal his plans to ascend to the God Realm with Rongrong, he chose to appease Ning Fengzhi by agreeing.

Satisfied, Ning Fengzhi added:

"I'll have someone prepare tonics to ensure your bodies remain in optimal condition."

With that, the matter was settled, and everyone seemed to have secured a promising future.

However, an unexpected voice interrupted:

"Wait a minute! I never said I'd join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan!"

Dugu Bo suddenly protested.

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo immediately became alert, ready for battle.

But Meng Bei stepped in and said:

"No need to worry, Uncle Sword and Uncle Bone. My grandfather-in-law just likes to play hard to get. Whenever everyone agrees on something, he always objects first, only to later agree and make it seem like he's being unique."

Hearing this, Sword and Bone Douluo lowered their guard and exchanged amused glances.

Dugu Bo, however, turned red with anger and glared at Meng Bei:

"You brat! Stop slandering me!"

He then tried to explain himself:

"I'm not like that! Don't listen to him—he's spouting nonsense!"

But his flustered reaction only made things worse, and even Sword and Bone Douluo struggled to hold back their laughter.

Meng Bei smirked and said:

"Fine, Grandfather-in-law. If you won't join us, Yan'er and I will head to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan without you. Once we have kids, we won't even recognize you as family anymore!"

"You—you!"

Dugu Bo's hand trembled as he pointed at Meng Bei.

In the end, he gave in and agreed to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan.

When the group emerged, Ning Fengzhi officially announced:

"From today, Poison Douluo Dugu Bo will join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan as an elder, equal to Uncle Sword and Uncle Bone. In three months, Meng Bei and Rongrong will hold their wedding in Heaven Dou City!"

As his words fell, system notifications rang in Meng Bei's mind:

[Ding! Side quest 'Poison Douluo's Threat' completed. Reward: 50,000-year Azure Eagle Left Arm Bone!]

[Ding! Side quest 'Xiao Wu's Identity Crisis' completed. Reward: Demon Emperor's True Blood!]
