“No wonder it took so long!”
“So it turns out Yu Xiaogang was injured in the Soul Hunter Forest!”
“What a piece of trash! He even got injured while hunting the first spirit ring!”
Standing in a hidden corner, secretly watching the two, Tang Hao took a sip of cheap ale and then took a bite of the chicken leg in his hand.
These past few days, searching for Yu Xiaogang and his companion has truly exhausted this titled Douluo!
He searched not only the Soul Hunting Forest, but also the roads along the way.
However, they couldn’t find a single clue.
In this situation, Tang Hao was in no mood to eat!
If his son is gone, how can he take revenge on the Spirit Hall?
Just when he was about to despair, he finally found traces of the two in a small town on the outskirts of the forest.
They walked out of the clinic, seemingly heading back to Nottingham College.
“But if they don’t rent a carriage, how are they going to get back?”
Seeing that they didn’t rent a horse-drawn carriage but instead set up a simple four-wheeled vehicle, Tang Hao was a little confused.
However, he did not make a move, intending to observe further.
Who knew…
Yu Xiaogang sat on the extremely simple four-wheeled vehicle, and Tang San walked to the front and tied the rope.
“Yu Xiaogang, you’ve already chosen your own path to death!”
“How dare you make me, the son of the dignified Haotian Douluo, serve as a beast of burden for a piece of trash like you!”
Tang Hao, who was still gnawing on a chicken leg, suddenly turned bloodshot and started panting heavily when he saw this scene.
He almost couldn’t help but rush out and punch Yu Xiaogang.
Hunting a hundred-year-old soul beast can leave him half-paralyzed, yet he still has the nerve to ask his mistress to pull his chariot?
“You’ve really suffered, mistress!”
“If it weren’t for the malignant mutation of my martial soul, which caused my soul power to remain permanently at level twenty-nine, you wouldn’t need me…”
Even someone as shameless as Yu Xiaogang couldn’t help but show a look of embarrassment at this moment.
The main issue was that, in front of everyone, this over-fifty-year-old Soul Master had a six-year-old child pull the cart.
The strange looks from the surrounding Soul Masters made Yu Xiaogang, who was sensitive and insecure, not even dare to lift his head.
“Teacher, you don’t need to care about what other people think!”
“I’ve said it before: A teacher for a day is a father for life!”
Tang San shook his head firmly, grabbed the rope, and set off.
It usually takes half a day to travel from the Soul Hunter Forest to Notting Academy by carriage.
At their current pace, they won’t arrive at Notting College until at least the beginning of next month.
During this time, the mistress also had to take care of Yu Xiaogang’s eating, drinking, and toileting needs.
This isn’t about becoming an apprentice, it’s like finding a father for yourself!
“Yu Xiaogang, you taught well, very well, extremely well!”
Tang Hao glanced coldly at Yu Xiaogang’s back, chewed the chicken bone and swallowed it.
He felt he needed to find a time to make the other party realize his own position.
Just as Tang Hao turned to leave, he suddenly heard whispers around him.
“Oh dear, this child is so pitiful!”
“Who can argue with that? Having such a useless master, even hunting a hundred-year-old soul beast can backfire.”
“It’s said that he was even splashed in the eyes with datura snake venom, and if it weren’t for timely treatment, he would have lost his eyes!”
What?
There’s also the issue of datura snake venom damaging the eyes?
Tang Hao immediately stopped in his tracks, his eyes blazing with fury.
“Judging from what just happened, the mistress’s eyes should be fine.”
“But how dare a little snake bully my son?”
Tang Hao’s face was extremely gloomy, but the conversation in his ear was not over yet.
“But why would a hundred-year-old Mandragora Serpent appear on the outskirts of the Soul Hunter Forest?”
“It is said that a ghost vine over six hundred years old appeared in the core area of the forest, triggering a riot of soul beasts.”
“I see. It seems I need to be more careful during this period.”
The Soul Masters near the clinic were still shaken.
Tang Hao’s fists were already clenched so tightly they were cracking.
“A vine, a little snake, how dare they bully my son, Tang Hao’s son!”
After saying that, Tang Hao picked up the Clear Sky Hammer, put on his hood, and headed straight for the core area of the Soul Hunting Forest.
Meanwhile, Yu Xiaogang, who knew nothing about it, was still boasting about his theory.
“Little San, after my careful research, this Ghost Vine that appeared in the Soul Hunting Forest is no ordinary plant!”
“Um, teacher, aren’t they all Ghost Vine? How could there be any difference between the same type of soul beast?”
Tang San tied the rope around himself, pulled Yu Xiaogang’s four-wheeled cart, and headed towards Notting Academy.
“Of course they’re different!”
Yu Xiaogang immediately retorted, “According to my research, the same type of soul beast possesses different soul skills.”
“For example, the swamp poison frog is a weak soul beast. Even if it has a thousand years of cultivation, it is not worth mentioning.”
“However, some exceptionally talented swamp poison frogs possess an extremely terrifying soul skill called Corpse Explosion!”
“Once you possess the Corpse Explosion Technique, even a thousand-year-old swamp poisonous frog will have a chance to kill a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast!”
Upon hearing this, Tang San couldn’t help but gasp.
There are actually such heaven-defying soul skills in the world?
“Teacher, is there anything special about the Ghost Vine in the Soul Hunting Forest?”
“Indeed, that ghost vine’s mastery of parasitic soul skills is extremely proficient, far surpassing other similar soul beasts recorded in the records!”
“Furthermore, according to the Soul Masters who came out of the Soul Hunting Forest, there is a large amount of Blue Silver Grass around that Ghost Vine!”
“This shows that it has an extremely high compatibility with Blue Silver Grass!”
When Yu Xiaogang mentioned this, the corners of his mouth turned up in a smile.
Finding such a suitable spirit ring is no easy feat!
“If I had encountered such a suitable spirit ring back then, how could Luo Sanpao’s spirit skills have all been useless?”
Yu Xiaogang’s smile gradually disappeared, and he appeared very depressed.
Noticing the change in Yu Xiaogang’s emotions, Tang San rolled his eyes, feeling that the time was almost right.
“Teacher, have you ever heard of the Wishing Tree Martial Soul before?”
“The Wishing Tree Martial Soul?”
Yu Xiaogang raised his eyes in confusion, “Is there anything special about this kind of martial soul?”
Since leaving the Spirit Hall library, the only spirit he could research was the Blue Silver Grass spirit.
Other types of martial souls are not his place to study.
“This is the martial spirit of a work-study student named Xu Yuan in our dormitory!”
“Not only does it possess innate full soul power, but this martial soul also grants the special ability to make one’s wish come true once a month!”
Tang San carefully explained Xu Yuan’s martial soul ability.
“What, your wish has come true?”
Yu Xiaogang, who was lying on the four-wheeled vehicle, sat up excitedly as if he had heard of Haotian’s secret technique.
“Yes, teacher!”
“Xiao Wu from our dorm even made a wish in front of everyone!”
Before Tang San could finish speaking, Yu Xiaogang asked, “So what was the result?”
“Judging from Xiao Wu’s initial expression, she must have succeeded.”
“However, Xu Yuan’s Wishing Tree Martial Soul is very special.”
“If I had to describe it in one sentence, it would be: wishes come true, regardless of life or death!”
“When a wish comes true, there will most likely be a price to pay!”
Tang San then told Yu Xiaogang the story that Xu Yuan had once told him.
“As for Xiao Wu… I can tell she paid a price, but I don’t know exactly what she paid.”
After saying these words, Tang San stopped talking.
However, everything went just as he had predicted.
“If that’s the case, then it seems I’ll have to be persistent again.”
Yu Xiao began to plan how to get Xu Yuan to become her disciple.
