Conquering His Brother-in-Law with Soul Orbs

"Little brother, you're so handsome! You killed that five-thousand-year Goliath Ant King with a single strike of your staff."

After returning to the VIP room, Hu Liena sat on the bed and listened to Sun Sheng describe how he had slain the Goliath Ant King with one blow. She stared at him with worship in her eyes, practically swooning.

"Of course. Don't you know who I am? How else could I have won your heart?"

Sun Sheng lightly scraped her perky little nose and teased her with a smile.

"Little brother, you're so bad. Absolutely awful."

Hu Liena lowered her head shyly, fidgeting bashfully.

"Hehehe, big sister, haven't you heard the saying, 'Bad boys get the girls'?"

Sun Sheng gave a wicked grin and pulled a pitch-black little sphere from his robe.

This sphere was a Soul Orb condensed from pure Soul Power.

"Little brother, this is...?"

Sensing the Soul Power fluctuations emanating from the Soul Orb, Hu Liena was utterly shocked and had no idea what it was.

"Big sister, this is good stuff. It's called a Soul Orb, and it contains pure Soul Power. If a soul master consumes it, it can raise their Soul Power Level."

"The reason I was able to raise my Soul Power Level to twenty-three so quickly was thanks to this thing."

Sun Sheng placed the Soul Orb into her hand and smiled calmly.

Good things were meant to be shared.

Especially since Hu Liena was his woman.

Naturally, she deserved special treatment.

Besides, he still had three Soul Orbs left.

"Soul Orb? It can raise Soul Power Levels? Heavens, where did you get something like this?" Hu Liena asked in shock.

"Big sister, this is a secret technique unique to the Sun family. It can extract the Soul Power within soul rings and use a special method to condense it into Soul Orbs for long-term storage."

"Once swallowed, they can be absorbed like food, allowing the user to absorb the Soul Power inside."

Naturally, Sun Sheng would not tell Hu Liena the true origin of the Soul Orbs, so he made up an excuse.

Of course, he had not come up with that excuse on the spot. He had planned it long ago.

Since Bibi Dong possessed the ability to devour soul rings and human souls, he could likewise possess a method of extracting Soul Power from soul rings.

Even if Bibi Dong questioned him in the future, he would be able to offer a reasonable explanation.

"Heavens, I never thought such a secret technique existed in this world. Wouldn't mastering it allow someone to raise their Soul Power without limit?" Hu Liena cried out.

"Big sister, it isn't that easy. Condensing a single Soul Orb takes an unknown amount of time and effort. Back when we hunted in the Star Dou Great Forest, we killed countless Goliath Ants just to condense a few Soul Orbs."

"Besides, once a soul master reaches Spirit King level, the effect of Soul Orbs is halved. How could it possibly be so easy?"

"Otherwise, I would have become a Titled Douluo in no time."

To indirectly explain the origin of the Soul Orbs, Sun Sheng deliberately exaggerated his explanation.

"You're right. Still, this is already incredibly heaven-defying."

Though Hu Liena was somewhat disappointed, she remained extremely excited.

"Big sister, you should hurry up and eat it. Maybe it'll give you a pleasant surprise," Sun Sheng prompted.

"Mm, okay."

Hu Liena nodded and swallowed the Soul Orb without hesitation.

She believed Sun Sheng would never harm her.

The Soul Orb melted the instant it entered her mouth, turning into a stream of pure Soul Power that surged through Hu Liena's body like a flood, circulating through every part of her.

When that pure Soul Power gradually dissipated, her Soul Power Level rose by an entire rank.

Hu Liena was completely stunned.

She had never imagined that such a tiny Soul Orb could contain such vast and pure Soul Power.

It had directly saved her nearly a year of arduous cultivation.

This was far too unbelievable.

She even believed that if she could eat another Soul Orb, she could rise another level.

Then she could hunt a ten-thousand-year Soul Beast and advance to Spirit King.

"Little brother, do you have any more?"

After witnessing the charm of the Soul Orb, Hu Liena shyly asked for another.

"I do, but you can't take another one yet. Otherwise, the effect will be greatly reduced. You need at least half a year to let it settle before taking another," Sun Sheng replied.

Of course, Sun Sheng was not making that up.

Soul Orbs had no restrictions whatsoever for him.

But for outsiders, they truly could only take one at least six months apart.

Otherwise, the effects of the Soul Orbs would be greatly diminished, much like how a patient who took the same medicine for a long time would develop a certain resistance to it, weakening its efficacy.

"Ah, all right."

Hu Liena was slightly disappointed after hearing that.

But she could understand. After all, something so heaven-defying ought to have some restrictions.

"Little brother, then give me another one. I can't use it, but my brother can. He's only one level away from level fifty now," Hu Liena requested.

"Of course, but to prevent this matter from spreading, you need to explain it clearly to Brother Xie Yue. Otherwise, it could easily cause unnecessary trouble," Sun Sheng agreed without hesitation.

Xie Yue was his brother-in-law, after all. Naturally, he had to take good care of him.

Perhaps he could use this opportunity to build a closer relationship with Xie Yue.

After all, the Douluo Leveling System had issued a mission for him to integrate into the Golden Generation.

To complete the mission, he had to win over both Xie Yue and Yan.

"No problem. I'll go bring my brother over right now."

Seeing him agree without a second thought, Hu Liena happily kissed his cheek before running out.

Before long, Hu Liena returned, pulling in a stunned-looking Xie Yue and shutting the door tightly behind them.

Clearly, Hu Liena had already told him about the Soul Orbs.

"Sun... Sun Sheng, is there really such a heaven-defying thing as a Soul Orb in this world?"

Xie Yue stared at the Soul Orb in Sun Sheng's hand, swallowed hard, and asked timidly.

Obviously, he still could not believe that such a heaven-defying treasure as a Soul Orb existed.

But Hu Liena's level forty-nine Soul Power fluctuations already proved everything.

"Of course. Otherwise, how could Sister Nana's Soul Power Level have suddenly risen?"

Sun Sheng suddenly changed the way he addressed Hu Liena and smiled calmly.

After all, it was not ideal to keep calling her big sister. It was time to use something more intimate.

Gulp!

Xie Yue swallowed hard, accepted the Soul Orb Sun Sheng handed him, and said expectantly, "All right, then I'll try it."

As soon as he spoke, Xie Yue swallowed the Soul Orb in one gulp, half believing and half doubting.

At once, a vast and pure surge of Soul Power flooded his body, washing through every part of him.

Before long, his Soul Power Level rose to fifty.

The facts were right before him. This time, Xie Yue truly believed it.

"Heavens... it's real."

"Sun Sheng, thank you so much."

"This Soul Orb of yours has saved me a year of hard cultivation."

Feeling his current Soul Power Level, Xie Yue was both shocked and overjoyed. He grabbed Sun Sheng's hand, his face filled with gratitude.

At that moment, he was completely won over by Sun Sheng's generosity and the heaven-defying effects of the Soul Orb.

He had never expected Sun Sheng to overlook past grievances and give him such a precious Soul Orb.

Such magnanimity moved him deeply and made him feel ashamed.

Ding! Congratulations to the host for winning over Xie Yue through "virtue." Reward: two Soul Orbs, two hundred Leveling Value, and two hundred Exchange Value.

May the host continue working hard and integrate into the Golden Generation as soon as possible.
