"Grandmaster exploded!"
After shouting that, Tang Lin hid behind a tree, not daring to show herself at all. Only after estimating that the aftermath of Yu Xiaogang's explosion had passed did she cautiously poke her head out.
Sig and Tang San were currently beside Yu Xiaogang, checking his condition.
Purple- and red-tinged blood was splattered everywhere.
Yu Xiaogang had long since lost all color in his face, his entire body deathly pale. The patches of skin that had been blasted by his own blood looked waterlogged and swollen.
Anyone unaware of the situation would have thought he had soaked in water for days and was already dead.
Following the hole Tang Lin had just pierced with her Blue Silver God Vine, the toxins in Yu Xiaogang's body had dispersed along with the blood that sprayed out.
It had not quite drained all the blood from his body, but it was close enough.
"Xiao San, your teacher wasn't blown to death by that just now, was he?"
"Xiao San, don't you know how to detoxify people?"
"You should have found a way to detoxify Grandmaster first. Otherwise, he wouldn't be in such a miserable state now."
Tang San froze for a moment and was about to say that he could not detoxify him, but Tang Lin beat him to it.
"Xiao San, you can't detoxify him?"
Tang San: ...
[Tang San's Second Defense Break progress: 40%]
It was not that he could not detoxify him. He simply had no materials for it—not even a single medicinal herb.
Tang San continuously poured his Mysterious Heaven Skill Soul Power into Yu Xiaogang's body.
Though Yu Xiaogang was still extremely weak, his life was finally saved. As for when he would wake up, that was anyone's guess.
After Tang San absorbed the Ghost Vine's Soul Ring, Tang Lin and the others quickly carried Yu Xiaogang out of Soul Hunting Forest.
It was ultimately safer outside than inside.
Four days later, the four of them left the boundaries of Soul Hunting Forest.
On the fifth day,
thanks to Tang San's careful care over the past few days, replenishing his nutrition daily and feeding him more blood-enriching food,
as well as Tang Lin's sudden idea to inject a thread of the Soul Power she had cultivated through the Primordial Creation Scripture into Yu Xiaogang's body,
he finally awoke from his coma.
However, Yu Xiaogang still had no strength in his body and no color in his face. It would take a long time for him to recover.
Even Tang Lin spoke much less, lest she provoke Yu Xiaogang so badly that he truly died.
After returning to Nuoding Academy, they resumed their usual cultivation. The remaining years passed in a flash.
The system did not undergo any updates during those years.
Yu Xiaogang experienced his Third Time Defense Break, rewarding Tang Lin with a great deal of theoretical knowledge regarding Soul Masters and Soul Beasts, as well as part of a secret technique for increasing the age of Soul Rings.
Tang San also experienced three Defense Breaks.
His second Defense Break reward enhanced Tang Lin's Blue Silver Domain. Its mimicry and camouflage ability gained the ability to disguise one's physique and appearance.
The third Defense Break rewarded her with a Movement Technique Soul Skill, Shrink Ground into Inches.
When she obtained Shrink Ground into Inches, Tang Lin had nearly jumped for joy.
It was simply an essential item for staying home, traveling, killing, and robbing.
What ability was most important in battle? Naturally, it was the ability to escape with one's life.
Before a fight, one had to prepare ninety-eight methods of escape.
Unfortunately, Shrink Ground into Inches still needed to be cultivated bit by bit. Once mastered, it could even cross space and travel freely to any place.
After Tang Lin, Tang San, and Xiao Wu graduated from Nuoding Academy,
the three traveled together to Suotuo City in the Balak Kingdom.
The Shrek Academy Yu Xiaogang had pointed Tang San toward was located there.
Naturally, Tang Lin chose to follow Tang San there.
Only then could she lie low behind Tang San, since she only knew the plot surrounding him.
Every now and then, she could even change her form, disguise herself as Tang San, and go wild for a bit.
Tang San killed and set fires; Tang Lin saved the suffering and rescued the needy.
Xiao Wu had nowhere else to go, so she naturally came along with Ye Lin.
A gray city stood at the center of the plains—it was Suotuo City.
It was the scorching height of summer, the blazing sun like fire. At Suotuo City's west gate, pedestrians came and went, constantly passing through the city gates.
Two young women and one young man slowly entered through the gate from outside the city.
The woman on the left had a long Scorpion Braid hanging naturally to her calves. Her pink top covered the Soul Tool Storage Belt tied around her waist, while her loose white trousers revealed a very good figure.
The woman in the middle had her hair tied up. She wore an ordinary, extremely loose white T-shirt and black trousers, making it impossible to tell what her figure was like. Her face looked utterly ordinary as well, the sort that would never earn a second glance in a crowd.
The man on the right, however, was anything but ordinary.
Big Back Head hairstyle.
A silver necklace around his neck.
A white T-shirt under a Blue and White Alternating Jacket.
A gold ring on his Left Hand, a storage Soul Tool bracelet on his right hand, black slim-fit trousers, and branded shoes from Douluo Continent.
He was the kind of person who would absolutely be remembered at a glance in a crowd.
The three were none other than Xiao Wu, Tang Lin, and Tang San, who had come from Nuoding City.
Over the past six years, Tang Lin had thoroughly changed Tang San's personality. There was not the slightest trace of his former scheming nature.
When in doubt, use Blue Silver Bind.
If it could not bind them, then they had already embarked on the Path to Death.
Tang Lin was quite satisfied with that.
"We've finally arrived in Suotuo City. Good thing it isn't too far from Nuoding City, or I really would have been exhausted to death."
Xiao Wu let out a long breath.
"We should have gone to an Intermediate Soul Master Academy. Back then, who knew how many of them wanted to recruit us? Not only would tuition have been waived, but they would have also given us a huge scholarship every year."
She looked at Tang San beside her.
"What was Grandmaster thinking?"
"Why did he insist on making us come to some unknown Shrek Academy?"
Tang San shrugged.
"Since Teacher said so, there must be a reason."
"And to me, it's the same wherever I go."
"It's nothing more than becoming the boss at a different Academy."
"The first thing I'll do after going to Shrek Academy is teach the students there the rules!"
He clenched his fist.
"My rules are the rules!"
Xiao Wu rolled her eyes at Tang San and could not be bothered with him.
"Sister Lin, we still have two days. Let's take a look around Suotuo City first."
Tang Lin nodded in agreement.
"But the most important thing right now is naturally finding somewhere to stay."
Xiao Wu casually looked to the side.
"Let's stay at that Rose Hotel. It looks pretty good."
"It has a very unique feel."
"Rose Hotel? Sure."
Tang Lin repeated.
The three slowly headed into the Rose Hotel.
There was no need to ask Tang San for his opinion.
No matter how formidable Tang San pretended to be in front of others,
an older sister would always have the bloodline suppression of an older sister over her younger brother.
She recalled the plot.
Dai Mubai should appear here as well.
She wondered what would happen between Tang San and Dai Mubai when the two met now.
