The Tragic Luo Sanpao

"Clang!"

Tian Hao, who had long since gathered his strength, planted his feet, drew the Thousand Refined Tungsten Steel Sword hidden inside his robe, and swung it in a horizontal slash.

Although the sword had no edge, when fused with that self-hypnotized sharp Spiritual power, Soul Power condensed along the blade into the form of a Wind Blade, giving it astonishing cutting power.

Like slicing through tofu, the blade severed the horse's neck in one strike, killing it instantly. At the same time, Tian Hao sidestepped the horse's body as it continued charging forward from its momentum.

The horse toppled to the ground, sending Yu Xiaogang flying. Still, he was at least a One-Ring Soul Master, so his physical skills were not poor. Having been on guard beforehand as well, he rolled across the ground and quickly got back up.

"Come out, Luo Sanpao!"

As purple Soul Power surged forth, Luo Sanpao appeared beside him. But when it saw the person opposite them, even its little stubby legs began to tremble.

Why is it that person again?

"Farting Like Thunder—Thunderous Earth-Shattering Luo Sanpao!"

Yu Xiaogang decisively unleashed his first Soul Skill, and his heart relaxed. As long as the Soul Skill was released, everything would be fine. With Luo Sanpao's impact force, it would be enough to heavily injure this person.

With the Soul Skill's enhancement, Luo Sanpao's round body immediately bounced into the air. Its belly rapidly swelled as it took aim at Tian Hao.

This was an almost lock-on Soul Skill that could adjust its aim at any time. Last time, it had been completely tricked, but this time would definitely be different.

Tian Hao's method of dealing with this move was simple. He rushed to Yu Xiaogang, restrained him, and then lifted his body up like a shield, holding it in front of himself.

As Tian Hao moved, Luo Sanpao also adjusted the direction of its body according to the Soul Skill's guidance.

"No!"

As his body was lifted into the air and he saw Luo Sanpao assuming a posture that was about to fire, Yu Xiaogang panicked.

Unfortunately, Luo Sanpao had its back to him and had no idea what was happening behind it. Once it had gathered its power to the limit, it suddenly erupted.

Yellow gas mixed with some special substances sprayed out. Even Tian Hao could not hold his ground against it, and the impact sent him sliding backward several steps before he finally steadied himself.

As for Yu Xiaogang, covered in filth, he fainted even more cleanly. Part of it was from the tremendous impact, part from being overwhelmed by the stench, and the rest from his rage.

How did I end up with such a useless Martial Soul?

"Luo, Luo, Luo..."

Only after landing did Luo Sanpao realize that something was wrong. Why did its master get hit again?

"Should I execute him?"

Ling Yuan asked as she walked out of the grass nearby. She had been holding a Recording Soul Tool and filming the entire time, so she had naturally heard everything Yu Xiaogang had said as well.

I Did Not Expect him to be this kind of person.

"He still has value alive. This matter is Not Suitable for publicizing. Don't report it to the Pope; I'll handle it."

Tian Hao shook his head. He then removed the black robe covered in filth from his body, wrapped it around his hand, and stepped forward to remove the Belt from Yu Xiaogang's waist.

Such a treasure was always better in greater numbers. However, he would have to wash it thoroughly after returning.

"This is what I found On Him last time. It should be the secret Meditation Method passed down through the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's patriarchal line. It should be useful to you. Make a copy, then hand the original over to the Pope."

As though he had remembered something, Tian Hao took out Yu Xiaogang's handwritten copy of the Meditation Method and handed it to Ling Yuan.

Although their attributes were different, they both possessed Beast Martial Souls, so there should be quite a few things they had in common.

"Are you bribing me?"

Ling Yuan took the handwritten copy, her Beautiful Eyes shifting. She truly could not refuse this gift.

Although their Martial Soul attributes and types were different, they were both Beast Martial Souls, and there were many similarities between them. As long as she thoroughly mastered this Meditation Method, it would certainly greatly improve the effects of her own cultivation. It might even become a family inheritance. Its significance and value were extraordinary.

"How can you call it bribery? I'm merely expressing my gratitude for Sister Ling Yuan's care over the years. There is absolutely no intention of bribery."

Tian Hao retorted. Calling it bribery would be far too blunt.

He now regretted not studying the art of language in China in his previous life. Otherwise, he definitely could have made the bribery flow as smoothly and imperceptibly as rain nourishing everything.

"At least you have a conscience."

A smile tugged at the corners of Ling Yuan's lips as she Recorded the favor in her heart, planning to Find an Opportunity to repay it in the future.

"I've always had a conscience."

He chuckled, then turned his gaze toward the adorable creature guarding Yu Xiaogang.

"Sanpao, come here. Spill some blood. Don't think about going back, or I'll spill his blood instead.

You wouldn't want your master to die because of you, would you?"

With a basin in one hand and a small knife in the other, Tian Hao approached Luo Sanpao with a beaming smile.

Although Luo Sanpao's blood could not provide him with Soul Skills, it could provide pure Sacred and Light Attribute energy, which happened to make it convenient for him to cultivate the Meditation Method of the Angel Clan.

The Meditation Method of the Angel Clan that Qian Xunji had given him Back Then mainly focused on cultivating Spiritual power, but it also cultivated Light Attribute and Sacred Attribute energy. It even included Fire Attribute cultivation. It was considered high-grade even within the Angel Clan, second only to the top-tier Meditation Method passed down directly through the patriarchal line.

And only by possessing Light Attribute and Sacred Attribute energy could one fully unleash the effects of that Meditation Method.

Thus, the more blood he could get from an adorable creature like Luo Sanpao, the better. He even wished he could raise it beside himself and draw its blood every day.

With nowhere left to retreat, Luo Sanpao could only close its eyes in tragic resignation. For the sake of its master, it endured.

The process was the same as before. Tian Hao slit its throat and drained its blood, then lifted it up and weighed it in his hand to let the last drops drain out. Only after that could Luo Sanpao hold on no longer, transforming into a stream of purple Soul Power that merged into Yu Xiaogang's body.

The backlash from the Martial Soul made Yu Xiaogang's body twitch, but the effect was not severe. At most, he would be weak for a while.

"Let's go!"

Tian Hao stored the horse's remains in the Storage Soul Tool, planning to return and make an extra meal from it. He gestured toward Ling Yuan, who was looking through the Meditation Method, while pondering what he should exchange this recording for from that foolish Saintess.

He Did Not Know whether that Saintess possessed a Soul Bone. If she did not, then a Space Soul Tool capable of storing living creatures would do as well. It would be just what he needed to Prepare for another plan.

"Are we just leaving him here?"

Ling Yuan turned her gaze toward Yu Xiaogang lying beside the road and felt that leaving him here might be unsafe.

After all, he was the son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's patriarch. If he truly died here, their Spirit Hall would become somewhat passive. Even if he had to die, he should die farther away.

"With all that stuff On Him, only a ghost would be willing to touch him. Besides, he'll wake up in at most an hour. He'll be fine."

Tian Hao grumbled. Luo Sanpao's method of releasing its Soul Skill was too vicious.

The worst part was that Yu Xiaogang often fed it White Radishes to stimulate its gas. Those food remnants accumulated in its belly and would be released together with the Soul Skill at the critical moment. It was extremely Evil and terrifying. He estimated that even Qian Daoliu would have to retreat from it.

"That makes sense."

Ling Yuan understood. Since people passing along the road would not touch him, there was no problem.

As for wild beasts or even Soul Beasts, this place was at least close to Spirit City. Even though it was a relatively remote road, it was absolutely impossible for wild beasts or Soul Beasts to appear here.

Just as Tian Hao had guessed, Yu Xiaogang woke up less than an hour after the two of them left. He climbed to his feet, looked at the filth covering his body and the missing Storage Belt, and became furious beyond reason.

"Spirit Hall! Bibi Dong! You will definitely Regret this!"

He snarled furiously, his handsome face twisting into a savage grimace.

Being toyed with like this time and again—how could he not be furious beyond reason?

Yet Yu Xiaogang had never considered the reason On Him. Through Bibi Dong, he had learned so many secrets of Spirit Hall and even the Angel Clan, and then leaked them. Not being killed immediately already counted as good fortune.

Luo Sanpao: I want to change masters!
