Ye Fan lay quietly on the bed, practicing the most advanced Soul Power circulation method he could find.
At the same time, cultivation replaced rest, allowing him to recover even better than others did through sleep.
"You're lying there so early without moving. Are you asleep?"
Xiao Wu leaned over the line dividing the room and chatted with Ye Fan.
Ye Fan slowly opened his eyes.
"You crossed the line."
Xiao Wu giggled. "So what if I crossed it? I'm a girl. You should let me have my way."
Ye Fan gave her a cold glance.
"If you keep this up, sleep by yourself."
Xiao Wu immediately shrank back in fear, pouting.
"You're really no fun."
"Sleep."
Late at night, while Ye Fan was cultivating, he suddenly felt a hand land on him.
Then a body pressed down against him.
Ye Fan opened his eyes and saw Xiao Wu hugging him as she slept on top of him.
Ye Fan tried hard to pull his right hand free, then pressed it against Xiao Wu's face and shoved.
However, Xiao Wu was simply too strong. She stubbornly clung to Ye Fan without letting go.
"I..."
Plot modification successful. Xiao Wu is hugging you while sleeping. When sleeping with Xiao Wu, cultivation speed increases by 50%.
Ye Fan was stunned.
If she wants to hug me, then let her. As a guy, I can take a little loss. I don't mind.
Early the next morning,
while most of Notting College's teachers and students were still asleep,
one tall figure and two shorter ones had already walked out through the academy gates.
After making purchases in Notting City,
Yu Xiaogang hired a carriage and took them toward the Soul Hunting Forest.
Along the way, Tang San kept asking questions, while Yu Xiaogang continuously taught him.
He covered every aspect of Soul Master cultivation.
Tang San instantly felt that Yu Xiaogang's knowledge was incredibly vast, that he seemed to know everything.
He really was a good wife.
But in reality, every Soul Master who had spent time out in the world knew the things Yu Xiaogang knew.
Yu Xiaogang also thoroughly enjoyed the feeling Tang San gave him.
Throughout the journey, Ye Fan sat quietly in cultivation with his eyes slightly closed, leaning against the carriage.
Yu Xiaogang turned to look at Ye Fan.
He was actually sleeping with his eyes closed?
He was explaining Soul Master cultivation so earnestly, yet Ye Fan had fallen asleep?
Doesn't that make me seem useless?
Does he think I don't have any real ability?
Looks like I'll have to show him something genuine if I want to convince him to take me as his master.
He took out a beautiful-looking belt from somewhere. Embedded in it were twenty-four milky-white gemstones.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Yu Xiaogang cleared his throat and woke Ye Fan up.
Ye Fan glanced at Yu Xiaogang. You and Tang San can keep talking. I'll keep cultivating. Why are you disturbing me?
Is that the so-called Twenty-Four Bridges on a Moonlit Night?
Yu Xiaogang introduced the Storage Belt with its twenty-four storage gems, then showed it to Ye Fan, hoping to win him over and make him take Yu Xiaogang as his master...
Since you woke me up, don't blame me for modifying things.
This time, he removed a single word.
"This is a Storage Soul Tool. You only need to inject Soul Power into it to use it. Each gemstone can provide one cubic meter of storage space."
Yu Xiaogang introduced the Storage Belt's abilities.
Tang San also examined it continuously. Each jade stone was only the size of an adult's thumbnail, round in shape. Their color was warm and lustrous; one look was enough to tell they were rare, fine jade.
Is this the gift my wife wants to give me?
This is simply wonderful.
Twenty-four jade stones means twenty-four cubic meters of storage space. For me, that means space for twenty-four kinds of Hidden Weapons.
With this belt, I won't have to worry about storing Hidden Weapons anymore.
Tang San had already stretched out his hand to receive it.
The next second,
"Ye Fan, this belt is yours."
Then Yu Xiaogang grabbed the belt in his hand and stuffed it into Ye Fan's arms without giving him any chance to refuse.
Tang San's outstretched hand instantly froze.
It wasn't for me???
Ye Fan had removed the word "show."
Yu Xiaogang introduced the Storage Belt with its twenty-four storage gems, then gave it to Ye Fan, hoping to win him over and make him take Yu Xiaogang as his master...
He had originally only wanted to show it to Ye Fan, but now it had become a direct gift.
"Thank you, Master."
"Tang San, why are you holding your hand out?"
Ye Fan looked at Tang San, who stood there stiffly with his hand extended.
"It's nothing. My head was a little itchy, so I was scratching it."
Tang San could only awkwardly scratch his head. He wished he could jump off the carriage immediately.
Plot modification successful. You obtained the Storage Soul Tool Belt that should have belonged to Tang San. Reward: a Soul Tool Storage Ring with one thousand cubic meters of space. To prevent Yu Xiaogang from going back on his word, this belt has been specially bound so that only Ye Fan can use it.
The system's voice rang out.
Ye Fan immediately felt an inconspicuous blackish-gray ring appear in his hand.
He sent Soul Power into it.
One thousand cubic meters.
It was equivalent to a large box ten meters long, ten meters wide, and ten meters high.
After giving the belt to Ye Fan, Yu Xiaogang was also stunned for a moment.
Why did I give the belt to Ye Fan?
I wanted him to take a look at it before giving it to Tang San, to show him that if he took me as his master, I could give him a Storage Soul Tool too.
Why did I give it directly to Ye Fan instead?
"Um, Ye Fan..."
"I misspoke."
"This belt was for you to look at, not a gift for you. I was just showing you what a Soul Tool looks like."
As he spoke, Yu Xiaogang shamelessly snatched the Storage Soul Tool Belt back and put it into Tang San's hands.
"Little San, this is what I meant to give you."
Tang San was instantly overjoyed.
"Thank you, old—"
Yu Xiaogang quickly interrupted Tang San.
"Little San, try using it. You only need to channel Soul Power into it."
"Alright!"
Ye Fan watched the pair of mismatched spouses coldly.
Well done. The system's binding ability at the end is simply perfect.
Tang San eagerly kept trying to use the Storage Soul Tool Belt.
But he soon discovered that when he sent his Soul Power inside, he felt nothing.
It seemed to be nothing more than ordinary gemstones.
"I can't sense any storage space inside."
Tang San looked at Yu Xiaogang in confusion.
"There isn't any?"
Yu Xiaogang froze for a moment.
"How could there not be?"
This foolish Tang San is too stupid. Using a Storage Soul Tool Belt is so simple, yet he can't even do it.
He took the Storage Soul Tool Belt and tried it himself.
The expression on Yu Xiaogang's face instantly froze.
How is this possible?
The method must be wrong. It's a belt, so it needs to be worn around the waist to work.
He fastened the belt around his waist.
He injected Soul Power!
He withdrew Soul Power!
Injected!
Withdrew!
Over and over, he tried every gemstone, but there was no response at all.
No...
Where did all that storage space go?
