Detain Tang Hao's Soul! Xiao Wu Betrays Tang San!
The Blue Silver Grass Clan Grounds.
After the Beast Tide, Lin Xiao was still troubled by how to get stronger. After all, putting aside everything else, a pure-blooded mother dragon over 200,000 years old would surely want to tear him to shreds.
Thus, Lin Xiao focused his attention on the Asura God's Trial.
"Asura God's Trial, Fourth Trial!"
"Mission: Detain a Titled Douluo or a soul of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast level!"
"Reward: Increase Asura affinity by 15%, and increase the age of all Soul Rings and Soul Bones by 10,000 years!"
Lin Xiao had been worried earlier.
Where was he supposed to find a Titled Douluo and a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, and then defeat them to obtain their Soul Rings and Soul Bones?
But then he discovered a crucial detail.
Cough, cough, Wasn't Tang Hao a Titled Douluo?
Although Tang Hao's body was crippled and he was severely injured, his cultivation had already fallen to Soul Saint. However, he had once been a Titled Douluo, and the drop in his cultivation would not affect his soul's strength.
"Master, please follow me."
Ah Yin, dressed in a red dress, smiled gently. Upon learning Lin Xiao's intentions, she had absolutely no objections, supporting him wholeheartedly.
"That brute Tang Hao is useless in this world. Being able to contribute even a little to Master's great cause is a blessing from his past lives."
Ah Yin smiled charmingly, her beautiful eyes flickering, showing no lingering feelings for Tang Hao, nor even much hatred.
She had tormented Tang Hao for so long.
Her anger had also subsided considerably.
Now, he was merely a disliked passerby.
Of course.
From now on, he would be a disliked dead person.
Ah Yin smiled and said, "I didn't expect Master to obtain the Asura God's inheritance after visiting Slaughter City. Although Master might not care, it shows that the Asura God is not blind."
Lin Xiao: "..."
He realized how much Ah Yin had changed.
She was becoming more confident and radiant.
Her flattery skills had also improved.
Lin Xiao followed Ah Yin into the depths of the Blue Silver Grass Clan Grounds.
He saw Tang Hao, still in the same state, pierced by countless Phoenix Blood Blue Silver Vines, his shoulder blades locked. His face and body were severely emaciated.
He hung there like a dried corpse.
Lin Xiao felt no sympathy upon seeing this.
A woman's deep hatred was truly enough to make her destroy you regardless of the cost.
Tang Hao sensed the presence of an outsider.
He weakly raised his head and opened his eyes. Upon seeing Lin Xiao, he was slightly stunned, and then his gaze turned fierce, filled with a frenzied killing intent.
"It was you who brought about this fate for Ah Yin and me!"
Lin Xiao shook his head.
"No, it was you."
He had no interest in wasting words with Tang Hao.
He extended his palm, and a dark Soul Devouring Fire, or rather, Black Sun Purifying Fire, leaped in his palm.
The dark Black Sun Purifying Fire floated before Tang Hao.
Then, it fiercely enveloped Tang Hao!
"Ah!!!"
Tang Hao struggled violently. His physical body rapidly disintegrated, turning to ash in an instant.
However, a phantom soul still endured the fiery torment.
Gradually, it became more and more transparent.
After a while.
Tang Hao's soul had vanished.
Only a dark flame emitting a strange aura remained.
Lin Xiao retracted the Black Sun Purifying Fire into his body.
The black gold Soul Ring behind him lit up slightly.
In his mind, the prompt for the Asura God's Trial sounded.
"Asura God's Trial, Fourth Trial complete!"
"Asura Affinity increased by fifteen percent, all Soul Rings and Soul Bones' age increased by ten thousand years!"
At this moment.
Lin Xiao's lowest-tier Soul Ring was already forty thousand years old.
His sixth Soul Ring had reached the terrifying realm of one million years.
And Lin Xiao's seventh Soul Ring was also undergoing an astonishing transformation.
The black grew deeper and deeper.
Gradually turning red, until it completely transformed into a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring!
Lin Xiao didn't rush to celebrate.
He turned his gaze to Ah Yin, who gave him a weak smile.
It was clear that Tang Hao's death had left Ah Yin with complex emotions.
Lin Xiao patted Ah Yin's shoulder.
"Ah Yin, if you're sad, you can talk to me."
Ah Yin shook her head.
"I wouldn't say I'm sad, I only feel exhilarated."
"It's just that my emotions are a bit complicated."
She smiled gently and teased, "Master really knows how to charm girls?"
Lin Xiao's expression was a little helpless.
"As long as you're alright."
"Ah Yin, you are a core member of my Phoenix Pavilion, you don't need to treat yourself as an outsider sometimes."
Ah Yin covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Master, I'm really alright."
Seeing this, Lin Xiao said no more.
According to Ah Yin's intel.
He learned that Xiao Wu had arrived in Heaven Dou City, and Tang San had also appeared. After dealing with Tang Hao's affairs, he didn't linger and was rushing towards Heaven Dou City.
...
Heaven Dou City.
Xiao Wu returned to Shrek.
Recently, Tang San felt like the Xiao Wu who had only eyes for him had returned.
Xiao Wu cared about him so much, asking many questions about himself, and when he encountered trouble, she would anxiously ask him what to do.
What to do? What else could he do!
Tang San told Xiao Wu all about his and his aunt's plan!
Including the Asura God's Trial and other secrets, without any concealment!
When he saw Xiao Wu's eyes full of admiration, Tang San gradually lost himself amidst the exclamations of "Wow," and "Third Brother is amazing."
He had been suppressed too much.
He desperately needed others' recognition to prove himself.
...
Xiao Wu was walking on the street.
The Fire Lotus Mark on her lower abdomen began to feel hot.
Xiao Wu, with a blush, entered a teahouse.
She went into a private room.
"Xiao Wu?"
Lin Xiao activated his Spiritual Detection, confirmed that no one was following Xiao Wu and that the surroundings were free from eavesdroppers, and then asked about the important matters.
"Were you wronged in the Lake of Life?"
Oh my goodness!
Xiao Wu had expected Lin Xiao to inquire about Ferocious Beasts or Tang San's information, but she never imagined his first question would be whether she had been wronged.
Xiao Wu's nose twitched, and she almost cried.
Lin Xiao was the only one who made her feel a sense of security and care.
Xiao Wu lowered her head and said softly.
"It's okay."
"Lin Xiao, the Ferocious Beasts want to use me, but they won't hurt me."
Lin Xiao nodded.
He took out a token from his Storage Soul Tool and handed it to Xiao Wu.
The token was engraved with the character "Wu" on the front and a phoenix pattern on the back.
Lin Xiao explained about forming the Phoenix Pavilion, then added:
"From now on, even if I'm not around, if you encounter difficulties, you can contact other Phoenix Pavilion members for help."
Xiao Wu accepted the token as if it were a precious treasure.
She smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Lin Xiao."
Afterward, Xiao Wu began to report the intelligence.
First, she spoke of the mission assigned by the Ferocious Beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest: to collect information on powerful humans in the human world, to remain undercover long-term, and to search for the whereabouts of the Phoenix God. Later, Di Tian had also assigned her the task of approaching Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao was not surprised by this.
However, upon hearing that the Ferocious Beasts had sent Xiao Wu to approach him, his expression couldn't help but turn strange. This meant that if he and Xiao Wu were to scheme against the Ferocious Beasts face-to-face in the future, Di Tian would still praise Xiao Wu for her diligence.
The matter of the Ferocious Beasts could be put aside for now.
The power gap was too great at the moment; they would have to wait until Lin Xiao broke through to become a Titled Douluo.
"Okay, let's talk about Tang San."
