Xiao San, Is This How You Welcome Me—with a Kneeling Bow...

Three months later!

Yuan Luo set foot on this land.

Suotuo City was at least ten times more prosperous than Notting City, truly giving him the feeling of a country bumpkin entering the city.

"It should be about time, right? Let's find somewhere to eat first, then look for Shrek Academy."

Yuan Luo had spent three months on the road, and one month accompanying Old Jack. After all, now that he had left, there was no telling when he would return. He would probably only be able to come back once every few years.

He had also used the Ice Lotus he picked earlier to make wine for Old Jack. It would last him three to five years.

He had left behind plenty of gold coins too. Old Jack and Widow Wang needed a lot of money every day.

"This is so hard! Why are there so many people?!"

That was right. Yuan Luo had wandered around for nearly an hour, yet he still could not find a single restaurant with room to eat. Every restaurant was packed without even the slightest opening.

All the hotels were full too. Not even a dog could squeeze in.

Who knew where he had wandered to, but a pink hotel appeared before Yuan Luo.

Rose Hotel!

Wasn't this where Tang San and Xiao Wu were staying?

Great!

If he really could not find anywhere else, he could stay with them.

As for being a third wheel, so what?

Was there anything worse than having nowhere to sleep at night?

Boom!

Before Yuan Luo could step through the door, a figure came crashing out.

In his urgency, Yuan Luo raised his right hand, and an ice mirror condensed in front of him, blocking the sudden attack.

The figure slid down the ice and dropped to one knee.

He wore blue clothes and stood around one meter seventy tall.

"Xiao San, why are you paying me such a grand salute? You're even welcoming me with a kneeling bow?"

Who else could this be but Tang San?

Unexpectedly running into Yuan Luo, Tang San raised his head in confusion.

He looked like a subordinate gazing at his master.

"Luo-ge?"

Tang San's voice was equally surprised. He had not expected Luo-ge to return so quickly.

But in the next moment, Tang San's expression darkened.

"Luo-ge, why are you taking advantage of me?!"

"Xiao San!"

A pure-looking young girl ran over from behind, with two rabbit ears on her head.

"Luo-ge, how can you bully Xiao San?!"

Xiao Wu gently helped Tang San up and looked at Yuan Luo with displeasure.

Yuan Luo merely smiled faintly, and green light appeared in his right hand.

The light gradually condensed into a blade of Blue Silver Grass.

He stuffed it into Tang San's mouth, and Tang San's condition visibly began to recover.

"Oh? You found yourself some help?"

A handsome voice sounded from behind. What followed was the sight of a blond-haired man, his chiseled face enough to attract a crowd of lovestruck girls.

At his sides were two beautiful Twins, each holding one of his arms.

The Twins were slightly older, but their figures were truly impressive. Their pretty faces were somewhat more mature as well, carrying an even more alluring charm.

"Hmph! Luo-ge is here now. Luo-ge can beat you without even using his spirit!"

Xiao Wu had quite the temper. Seeing the blond man bully Tang San, she could not hold herself back.

So this blond man was Dai Mubai. He really was a womanizer. Even Yuan Luo himself did not have a pair of Twins by his side.

"Xiao Wu, you've really given me a difficult problem. He's a Soul Elder, you know!"

Yuan Luo shook his head. This little rabbit was truly bad. It seemed he would have to teach her a lesson when he got the chance.

"Aww, Luo-ge, we haven't seen each other in almost a year. Your little brother and little sister got bullied, so shouldn't you show them a little support~?"

Xiao Wu grabbed Yuan Luo's arm with both hands and kept shaking it. Her coquettish tone gave Yuan Luo goosebumps.

"Fine! Let go already!"

Yuan Luo flung Xiao Wu aside in disgust and met Dai Mubai's gaze.

Tang San had recovered by now as well.

The leaf from earlier had been made by Yuan Luo with Soul Power. It could heal injuries, but its effects were slow and could not restore someone as quickly as a soul skill.

Still, it was quite good. If he did not want to expose his soul skills in the future, he could use this instead.

"Oh? You want to fight me? State your name!"

Dai Mubai's eyes flashed, and three Soul Rings appeared around him.

The phantom of a White Tiger attached itself to his body, giving him an entirely different aura.

"Dai Mubai, level thirty-seven assault-type Soul Elder, spirit White Tiger."

Yuan Luo gave a wry smile. It felt a little foolish to tell his opponent his information.

Wouldn't it be better to confuse the other party and catch them off guard later?

"Yuan Luo, level thirty-six Soul Elder, spirit Air!"

Forget it. Foolish was fine. Fools had fool's luck.

But the moment Yuan Luo spoke, everyone lost their composure.

Dai Mubai seemed to have been frightened, his body involuntarily taking a step back.

"You're level thirty-six?"

Yuan Luo looked to be around twelve years old. A twelve-year-old Soul Elder, and already level thirty-six!

Tang San and Xiao Wu exchanged shocked looks as well. They knew Yuan Luo was strong, but they had never imagined he was a Soul Elder.

In their eyes, Yuan Luo was a Soul Ancestor.

After all, he had defeated the two of them working together using only Soul Power, and he had done so with ease. How could he only be a Soul Elder?

If Yuan Luo knew what they were thinking, he would definitely say: Thanks for thinking so highly of me...

Dai Mubai's expression grew grave, and his eyes gained a hint of seriousness.

However, he had never considered the possibility of losing. He possessed a top-tier spirit, top-tier Soul Rings, and even higher Soul Power than Yuan Luo. How could he lose to Yuan Luo?!

"Why aren't you releasing your spirit?"

"The entire space is my spirit. As for Soul Rings, that depends on whether you have the strength to see them!"

Yuan Luo even bragged a little, feeling incredibly pleased with himself. Showing off really was satisfying.

"Good. You are qualified to be my opponent!"

"First Soul Skill, White Tiger Barrier!"

"Third Soul Skill, White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"

Under the effects of the two soul skills, Dai Mubai's body grew more muscular, and his eyes turned blood-red, making him look like a ferocious tiger.

"Take this!"

With a shout, Dai Mubai lunged forward.

In an instant, Dai Mubai's fist arrived before Yuan Luo's face.

The force of the punch swept toward him with terrifying speed.

Yuan Luo extended his right hand and met Dai Mubai's fist seamlessly.

Dai Mubai's expression changed drastically. He felt a stream of cold air entering his body from his fist.

He raised his right leg and swept it toward Yuan Luo.

Yuan Luo shifted his feet and performed a backflip, dodging Dai Mubai's attack.

With Yuan Luo's current strength, he could easily defeat Dai Mubai even without using his spirit.

It could be said that Dai Mubai was like a little brother before Yuan Luo.

"Second Soul Skill, White Tiger Light Wave!"

Dai Mubai placed both hands before his mouth, and a white ball of light appeared.

Then, the light ball shot toward Yuan Luo like a sharp sword.

Yuan Luo raised his right arm, and a circular Ice Layer appeared, colliding with Dai Mubai's soul skill.

The soul skill dispersed, but the ice in Yuan Luo's hand was completely unharmed.

"Impossible!"

Dai Mubai was shocked. If the previous attack had been a coincidence, then this attack had not even injured Yuan Luo!

"This..."

Tang San and Xiao Wu swallowed hard behind him, unable to believe it at all.

They had never expected Yuan Luo to have become this powerful.

Without using his spirit or soul skills, he could block the soul skill of a high-level Soul Elder.

"Let's end this. I'm done playing!"

Yuan Luo shook his head and pointed his right hand at Dai Mubai.

In the next moment, the temperature throughout the room plummeted, and a layer of ice rapidly formed over Dai Mubai's body.

One second later, hard ice had formed around Dai Mubai's limbs, forcing his entire body into a crouch.

The air became exceptionally dry, without even a trace of moisture.

Yuan Luo had gathered all the water vapor in this area together and turned it into ice.

If they were in a watery area, the effect would be even better.
