Bo Ya felt somewhat delighted inside, even though he knew that Tang Rao might never fall in love with him. But that's just the way people are.

Having the person you like by your side is already a joyous matter.

Bo Ya's father was quite old, looking to be around sixty years old.

The only thing Bo Ya shared in common with his father was their dark color.

"Father." Bo Ya called out.

Theodore nodded, then turned his gaze toward Tang Rao.

Of course, Theodore recognized Tang Rao. A while ago, this young man had caused quite a stir in the Nine-Headed King Hall.

Although there were rumors outside about Bo Ya and Tang Rao having a flirtatious relationship, Theodore didn't want Bo Ya to have much to do with Tang Rao.

It wasn't a matter of looking down on Tang Rao, but rather because Tang Rao was too sharp-edged.

Such people may be dazzling, but they also attract a lot of enemies.

Too dangerous.

Moreover, although Tang Rao was powerful, in Theodore's view, no strength could surpass that of the Blood Clan.

The Bloodline Dukes, they all possessed the true strength of the Golden Core Stage.

"Didn't expect to see you here, young friend Tang Rao. Hello, I am Theodore, Bo Ya's father." Of course, in speech, Theodore remained very courteous.

After all, in terms of strength, Tang Rao was probably a bit stronger than himself.

"I, well, I just like to join in on the fun. I hope Clan Leader Theodore won't mind my uninvited presence," Tang Rao said with a smile.

"Of course not." Theodore smiled, "By the way, let me introduce you. This is Leonardo, a genius of the Blood Clan."

Tang Rao looked to the young man standing next to Theodore who appeared to be in his twenties, not much different from himself.

Of course, one couldn't judge a Blood Clan's age just by their appearance.

Tang Rao was not clear about Leonardo's exact age, but he could sense that Leonardo was very young within the Blood Clan.

"Hello, I'm Tang Rao." Tang Rao greeted.

However, Leonardo merely gave Tang Rao a cold glance without any response, appearing quite arrogant.

"Although Leonardo is not a Duke, he already has the strength of a Duke and can be regarded as the finest genius of the Blood Clan," Theodore spared no effort in praising Leonardo.

Tang Rao touched his nose. Although Theodore didn't say it, he pretty much understood his implication.

It seems Theodore favored Leonardo over himself.

"Bo Ya, you should interact with Leonardo. Young friend Tang Rao, could we step aside for a word?" Theodore said seamlessly, seemingly having something to say to Tang Rao, but in reality, he was creating a chance for Bo Ya and Leonardo to be alone.

"Tang Rao is my friend, and it's his first time here. I should do what a friend needs to do," Bo Ya didn't want to interact with Leonardo, who seemed quite boring to him.

Tang Rao was also a genius but never put on airs and was never pretentious.

Theodore's brows furrowed slightly.

"In that case, forget it," Leonardo finally spoke, his tone icy cold, as if the entire world owed him hundreds of billions.

"No no no, Leonardo, just wait a moment," Theodore said, then grabbed Bo Ya, pulling him aside to whisper.

As for Tang Rao, he looked at Leonardo with a smile.

Perhaps agitated by Tang Rao's gaze, Leonardo glared fiercely at Tang Rao, his eyes showing some annoyance.

Tang Rao won't avoid anything, still staring with a grin on his face.

You glare at me, go ahead. Staring at me won't get you pregnant.

"Stop looking at me!" Leonardo seemed a bit angry.

Tang Rao found it hilarious. He had encountered many idiots, but you're the first to get so angry over just being looked at.

If you can't even stand being looked at, then you shouldn't have grown a face.

"I think you look pretty good, quite handsome. Don't worry, you do your brooding, and I'll do my looking. It's not like we'll disturb each other," Tang Rao said.

"I said stop looking at me!" Leonardo raised his voice a bit.

"Well then you stop looking at me too. If you don't look at me then you won't see me looking at you," Tang Rao said nonchalantly.

Leonardo was getting frustrated. Where did this idiot come from? What kind of nonsense is this? It's simply infuriating.

"Shut your mouth and then, get out of my sight," Leonardo pointed at Tang Rao, inexplicably annoyed.

"I can shut my mouth, but as for getting lost, I can't do that. How about you demonstrate?" Tang Rao said with a smile.

Leonardo was about to lose it, teeth clenched tight.

"Tang Rao, is that it? It seems you are really bent on seeking death!" Leonardo's face darkened.

"You're a genius, and so am I. Let's not put each other down, and let's not be arrogant. Back in the day, I was making waves in the Nine-Headed King Hall, and I was quite impressive too," Tang Rao continued with a smile, though the smile now carried a hint of displeasure.

"A genius? You? A lowly human also dares to call yourself a genius?! Hahaha, is it your brain that's broken or are my ears not functioning properly to have misheard that? You say you're a genius?" Leonardo laughed loudly as if he had heard a hilarious joke.

Many people around turned their heads to look.

Although Leonardo's words were harsh, for the Blood Clan, this was the truth.

How could humans compare to the Blood Clan, whose ordinary talents dwarf even the so-called geniuses among humans countless times over? There are no true geniuses among humans, just their own delusions.

"Then it's definitely your ears that have a problem, my brain is quite fine, at least better than yours. Look at you, getting so angry over a few words as if I killed your father. To be human, you need to have some demeanor," Tang Rao shrugged and said.

"If you dare say one more word!"

"What's the matter, what's the matter?" At this moment, Theodore finally ran over.

Oh my, it's only been a moment, how did it turn into a fight already.

"Tang Rao, are you alright?" As for Bo Ya, he immediately walked over to Tang Rao's side.

This touched Tang Rao a bit.

Honestly, Bo Ya's treatment of him was truly beyond reproach.

"What could be wrong with me, just arguing with this Blood Clan genius. I'm just that righteous and honorable, when I see someone stupid, foolish, arrogant, haughty, and brainless, I just want to jibe at them a bit," Tang Rao laughed.

Stupid, foolish, arrogant, haughty, brainless...

Not one of them is anything good.

Leonardo's gaze was sharp. Never before had a human dared to insult him like this.

"Good! Very good! Outstanding! You're courting death, I'll grant it to you now!"

"Wait, Tang Rao is also participating in our King's legacy selection, you can't touch him!" Bo Ya immediately said.

What?

The Blood Clan members were all taken aback. This human? Participating in our King's legacy selection? What a joke!

"Interesting, really interesting. Fine, I'll let you live one more day. Tomorrow is the King's selection, and I'll show you what true courting of death is!" Leonardo roared before turning around to leave.
