Xiao Wu's Future Path: Tai Yin Jade Rabbit, Reporting In!

"Mixed with dragon-kind bloodline? You mean my—uh, my Martial Soul will grow scales?" Xiao Wu frowned after hearing Chen Feng's words.

"Most likely. Whether it's a lizard dragon kind or a serpent dragon kind, scales are inevitably going to grow on their bodies. That's a common trait among dragon kinds." Chen Feng nodded.

He had originally wanted to say Eastern dragons and Western dragons, but considering that people in this world probably would not understand, he changed his wording.

Serpent dragon kind and lizard dragon kind did sound fairly vivid.

"I don't want scales growing on my body—I mean, on my Martial Soul. Is there any other way for it to evolve?" Xiao Wu asked.

"So you want to preserve the rabbit's original form, right?" Chen Feng asked in return.

Xiao Wu nodded.

"In that case, you can only take the path of energy evolution. You need to add an attribute to your Martial Soul, then continuously improve in terms of attribute energy. That will allow your Martial Soul to evolve to a higher level," Chen Feng suggested.

"Then what attribute would be suitable?" Xiao Wu continued.

"How do you see your own role? Assault Type or agility attack type?"

"Of course, Assault Type." Xiao Wu answered without hesitation.

"A rabbit wants to be an Assault Type? What are you thinking?" Chen Feng was somewhat speechless. "A rabbit's base stats are far too low. As a lagomorph, it generally sits at the same table as rats."

"You're calling me a rat!?" Xiao Wu glared with her red eyes.

"I'm only telling the truth. Lies don't hurt people; the truth is the sharp blade." Chen Feng spread his hands.

"Ahhh! I'm going to fight you!" Xiao Wu was finally infuriated by Chen Feng. She slapped the table and pounced at him.

Chen Feng hurriedly dodged, while still remembering to continue provoking her.

"Mad, mad. Hehe."

"You still dare say that! I'll kick you to death!" Xiao Wu chased after Chen Feng in a fury.

Tang San hurriedly stepped in to break them up. He tried to separate Chen Feng and Xiao Wu, stopping their scuffle. "Stop fighting! You two, stop fighting!"

The three of them messed around for quite a while before finally sitting back down around the table.

"Give me the conclusion directly! If you dare say any more nonsense, only one of us will be leaving alive today!" Xiao Wu said angrily.

Chen Feng did not dare keep fooling around. If he truly enraged this Old Rabbit and she ran back to the Star Dou Great Forest to call over the Ape God, that would not be fun.

Chen Feng had no desire to experience "Ape God activation."

"Moon attribute. I suggest you choose the moon attribute," he quickly answered.

"Why?" Xiao Wu's anger gradually subsided as she asked.

"Because for a planet—I mean, a world—aside from the world's own energy, the sources of most energy are the sun and moon. Rabbits are more suited to yin energy, so I recommend the moon.

"Correspondingly, for Xiao San's first soul skill, I would recommend the sun: the ability to absorb Sunlight and convert it into life force. But it would be best not to add light or Fire Attribute, so as not to contaminate Blue Silver Grass's pure life force."

Chen Feng pointed at Tang San and said to Xiao Wu in a serious tone:

"One of you absorbs Sunlight, and the other absorbs Moonlight. Once you both successfully complete Martial Soul Evolution and have sufficient mutual understanding, you might even be able to form a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

"Of course, a Martial Soul Fusion Skill is still a distant prospect. The fundamental reason I recommend the moon-attribute path is that, in ancient times, there was a divine beast called the Tai Yin Jade Rabbit. It was a moon-attribute divine beast."

"Tai Yin Jade Rabbit!" Xiao Wu's eyes immediately lit up. "That name sounds nice. I like it! Then I'll take the moon-attribute path."

She then began to think again. "But what Soul Beast should I choose?"

"You could choose a Moon-Drawing Fox. This kind of Soul Beast possesses the ability to gather and absorb Moonlight." A somewhat hoarse voice came from the second floor.

Chen Feng and the other two looked over and saw a lean, middle-aged man descending the stairs and walking toward them.

The man wore a knit cap, with slightly long black hair spilling out from beneath it in a somewhat messy fashion.

His face looked weathered, but beneath his unkempt appearance, it was still possible to see that he had once been rather handsome.

As the man slowly approached, he said:

"A Moon-Drawing Fox can gather Moonlight upon its tail to attack enemies. It can also draw Moonlight directly into its body for storage, using it when needed. I believe it should fit your needs very well."

Moon-Drawing Fox? I don't think I've heard much about it, Chen Feng thought, somewhat puzzled.

Although the Spirit Hall in Nuoding City had a Soul Beast illustrated guide in its collection, it only contained relatively common and famous Soul Beasts.

Thinking about it, that made sense. Even the Sky Azure Bull Python had only been known to a small number of people like Grandmaster in the original story, while the ferocious beasts led by Di Tian, as well as the existence of Ice Empress and Snow Empress, were almost entirely unknown.

This showed that, in this era, humanity's understanding of Soul Beasts still had vast gaps. Not to mention that Nuoding City was merely a small city.

To see a more detailed Soul Beast illustrated guide, he would probably have to go to Spirit Hall Headquarters or one of those great families with long histories.

And even then, it might not be complete.

"May I ask who you are?" Chen Feng looked the middle-aged man over, a vague guess forming in his heart.

"You may call me Grandmaster." Grandmaster looked at Chen Feng and nodded. "I heard everything you said just now. They were truly excellent theories regarding Martial Souls, and they answered many of the doubts in my heart. Did you come up with all of them yourself?"

"Yes." Chen Feng's expression remained calm.

But his heart was anything but calm, because this Grandmaster looked vastly different from the Grandmaster in the original story.

The original story's description of Grandmaster's appearance was:

A middle-aged man with short black hair and an ordinary appearance.

Though this Grandmaster looked somewhat weathered due to his unkempt appearance, it was still clear that he had been handsome in his youth.

As the ladies on some site would put it, he had a great foundation.

So what was going on? Had he not transmigrated into Douluo Continent?

No! Chen Feng suddenly remembered something—Douluo Continent actually had three different versions.

Among those three versions, the Grandmaster's appearance in the novel and anime was basically the same, but the Grandmaster in the manhua looked rather similar to the one before him.

In other words, this was the manhua version of Grandmaster? Why didn't he have white hair? Chen Feng raised an eyebrow.

If this were the original Grandmaster, Chen Feng would not even bother with him, because that man's abilities were truly lacking.

The original Shrek Seven Devils all had their own issues as well.

Although not many people had recognized those issues in the early years, after some outrageous moves by a certain Third Young Master, the problems with many characters in the original work had gradually been unearthed.

Some of it was mindless hate, but some of it made valid points.

Contradictions at the narrator's level had spilled over and affected the characters under his pen.
