Liu Erlong, I Am Your Future Sister-in-Law
Seeing that Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong had both activated their martial Martial Soul and were ready to fight at any moment, Yu Xiaogang felt extremely troubled. He glanced at the helpless Flender and secretly transmitted a message through his Mental Power:
"Boss Flender, wait for me to stop things from getting any worse. You keep Liu Erlong in check and don't let her throw another tantrum."
After giving instructions to Flender, Yu Xiaogang, enduring the oppressive pressure of Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong's Soul Power clash, directly shattered their Soul Power with a vast and boundless Mental Power. Holding Bibi Dong's delicate hand, he said:
"Alright, Dong'er! Stop being willful. After all, Liu Erlong is still my cousin. Give me some face and don't make things too awkward. After all, it's my fault for wronging her."
Erlong, stop making trouble. We're really not a good match and we can't continue down this wrong path. I also need to consider your reputation. Back then, you only chose me from between me and Boss Flender because you liked me.
You know that those who possess Martial Soul Fusion Skill are either siblings or spouses. Erlong, you were just misled by the attraction between those Martial Soul. That was blood ties, not love, after all, neither of us knew the true nature of our relationship back then.
Upon hearing Yu Xiaogang's advice and analysis, Liu Erlong staggered back a few steps. Flender quickly appeared beside her, gently supporting her and asking with concern:
"Erlong, how are you? Are you alright?"
Liu Erlong turned to look at Flender's face, her mind in a daze. Yu Xiaogang's words kept echoing in her mind, and it seemed that what Yu Xiaogang said was indeed true.
When Yu Xiaogang and Flender confessed their feelings together, she sensed that Yu Xiaogang was indeed more attractive to her. That very familiar feeling made Liu Erlong, who had grown up as an orphan, feel a long-lost warmth.
Even so, Liu Erlong still couldn't accept Yu Xiaogang's abandonment of her! Why should she be the only one to bear all this? Now she just wanted a clear answer! For some reason, Liu Erlong felt angry whenever she saw Bibi Dong!
Liu Erlong was somewhat relieved now, since Yu Xiaogang no longer loved her. However, the sight of Bibi Dong's hateful, arrogant face still infuriated her! She shoved Flender aside and pointed at Bibi Dong behind Yu Xiaogang, saying:
"Hmph! Even if there's no longer any possibility between Xiaogang and me, I will never agree to you being with Xiaogang! Haven't you hurt Xiaogang enough before? How dare you come looking for Xiaogang!"
When has Bibi Dong ever been insulted to her face? If she weren't used to being pampered Saintess of the Spirit Hall, she would definitely have argued back with Liu Erlong. She and Yu Xiaogang intertwined their fingers and lightly tapped each other on their toes. Before Yu Xiaogang could react, she stamped his cheek with her finger, responding nonchalantly to Liu Erlong's provocation. "It's none of your business what Xiaogang and I do! From now on, you should be more polite and call me sister-in-law. You're welcome to attend my and Xiaogang's wedding. I'll send you a wedding invitation."
Liu Erlong felt like her lungs were about to explode with rage! This woman Bibi Dong, was completely targeting her! She was even flaunting her relationship and asserting her dominance in front of her! "You!!! Bibi Dong, I'm going to fight you to the death!!"
Seeing that Liu Erlong was about to make a big move, Flender immediately stepped forward and pulled her back, comforting her, "Erlong, don't be angry! It's not that bad for you!"
Liu Erlong was stopped by Flender, and her mind cleared up a bit. After all, it wasn't good to have a junior watching. Liu Erlong pushed Flender's hand away, crossed her arms, and sulked alone.
Flender kept comforting Liu Erlong, especially since Yu Xiaogang had just clarified their relationship and even helped him get closer to Liu Erlong. Flender was now Blood One.
Seeing Si Si and her group of juniors, Liu Erlong immediately thought of Yu Xiaogang summoning Flender here. Pointing at Bibi Dong, he gritted his teeth and said, "Perfect! Yu Xiaogang summoned Boss Flender here to help his disciple obtain his First Soul Ring. Let's have a competition to see who can complete the Soul Hunting the fastest and best. Only then will I acknowledge you as a woman!"
"Si Si and Su Yuntao, you two, come here to your sister. Wait here for a bit, and I'll take you to the Star Dou Great Forest to Soul Hunting!"
Si Si and Su Yuntao were happily enjoying some gossip when, unexpectedly, the gossip turned to them. Si Si and Su Yuntao immediately blushed, looking at each other shyly.
Liu Erlong, being an experienced person, sensed from her conversation with Si Si that Si Si had unusual feelings for Su Yuntao, so she decided to play matchmaker, as a way of putting her own failed relationship to rest.
After their relationship was clarified, Su Yuntao, with a surge of courage from who-knows-where, took Si Si's hand for the first time and led her towards Liu Erlong. Si Si was incredibly shy, her head spinning, and she didn't resist Su Yuntao holding her hand, which secretly delighted Su Yuntao.
Bibi Dong, unfazed by Liu Erlong's provocative bet, said:
"You think you can stop me from making things difficult for you with this? Let me, your sister-in-law, play with you for a bit. Xiao Zhan and Wang Dachui, you two wait until after dinner, and I'll take you to the Soul Hunting. Xiaogang, do you want to come with me? After all, they are your apprentices."
Xiao Zhan smiled wryly and led Wang Dachui behind Bibi Dong. He felt that his teacher's wife was not easy to get along with! She gave off a superior aura, and her commanding tone made it impossible not to obey.
Wang Dachui didn't have so many thoughts. He obediently walked behind Bibi Dong and said to her in Bibi Dong, "Okay, Master's Wife! I'll have to trouble you with my First Soul Ring!"
Bibi Dong was pleased with Wang Dachui's nickname, a slight upturn of her lips revealing a charming smile. She then took out the Martial Soul files of Su Yuntao and the other three from her Storage Soul Tool, using her Soul Power to present the files of Si Si and Su Yuntao to Liu Erlong, saying, "This is the Martial Soul development direction that Xiaogang planned for them. Take a close look so you don't make a mistake. Don't blame me for not warning you, Xiaogang's disciples are no ordinary people."
In a fit of pique, Liu Erlong snatched the Martial Soul files from Si Si and Su Yuntao, flipping through them casually. His eyes widened immediately, and he stared at Yu Xiaogang in disbelief, exclaiming, "Xiaogang! Are you kidding me?! Who says the First Soul Ring's age is 700 years?! And why are the Soul Hunting targets so strictly defined? Isn't it enough to just hunt suitable Soul Beast?"
Upon hearing Liu Erlong's exclamation, Flender snatched the Martial Soul files of Si Si and Su Yuntao from Liu Erlong hands and examined them carefully. He then looked at Yu Xiaogang with a questioning gaze and said, "Yes, Xiaogang! This is too exaggerated! No one on the Douluo Continent has ever had First Soul Ring with an age exceeding 430 years. Are you mistaken? Moreover, Si Si and Su Yuntao's Innate Soul Power is not high, and their cultivation talent is not good either. Aren't your expectations too high?"
It was time for Yu Xiaogang to step forward and explain, otherwise Flender and Liu Erlong wouldn't believe him. With his hands behind his back, Yu Xiaogang confidently explained to the two puzzled individuals, "This is my latest research combining theory and practice. Talent can be changed through nurture; Soul Master's upper limit isn't determined by innate abilities."
You can use your Soul Power to check Si Si and Su Yuntao's physical attributes, and you'll see if I'm exaggerating.
Yu Xiaogang gazed intently at the bright sunlight streaming through the French windows and uttered the famous saying that his original self had never been able to accomplish in his entire life, "There are no useless Martial Soul, only useless Soul Master!"
