What Were You Doing?

Su Yan felt a little conflicted. Should he go find Dugu Yan next?

Of course.

Dugu Bo's Immortal Herbs were not urgent. As long as he intercepted them before Tang San did, there would be no problem. There was still plenty of time.

Next, it depended on what rewards the Chat Group Upgrade would bring.

If the rewards were good enough, then nothing would be a problem. If the Chat Group Upgrade rewards were mediocre, he would have to obtain the Immortal Herbs as soon as possible and speed through the newbie phase.

Around noon.

Bibi Dong and the others in the Group Chat were still bickering. They wanted Bibi Dong to send a picture so they could see what she looked like, while Bibi Dong also wanted to know who they were.

No one sent a selfie. Instead, they shared a whole pile of food pictures.

After finishing his cultivation, Su Yan headed early to wander around near the Cafeteria.

Finally.

He saw that pink figure.

Little white rabbit, white and white~

Two ears standing upright~

Loves eating carrots and vegetables~

Bouncing around, truly adorable~

"Xiao San."

The moment Xiao Wu spotted Su Yan from afar, she happily ran over. She stretched out her arms to catch Little Monkey as he leaped into her embrace, her face brimming with joy.

Little Monkey was a little bewildered. He blinked in confusion, unable to understand why his companion was so happy.

Xiao Wu could not help sharing her delight. "Xiao San, starting today, we'll eat whatever you want. I'll make sure you eat until you're stuffed every day."

Standing nearby, Su Yan cursed inwardly, Damn Little Rabbit. You filthy nouveau riche. Do you even know how to spend twenty thousand Gold Soul Coins?

Su Yan put on a puzzled expression and asked, "Little Rabbit, did you find some money?"

Xiao Wu froze when she heard that and looked at Su Yan. "How did you know I found money... Well, I guess you could say I did find some."

"Don't worry."

"As long as Big Sister Xiao Wu has a bite to eat, I won't forget you."

Su Yan said solemnly,

"Really?"

"Lend me five hundred Gold Soul Coins so I can see how strong you are?"

Uh.

Xiao Wu looked at Su Yan oddly. After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "You wouldn't happen to be that Su Yan, would you?"

Su Yan shook his head, looking completely bewildered at Xiao Wu. I have no idea what you're talking about!

Seeing this, Xiao Wu began to suspect that she had guessed wrong. Still, she pulled Su Yan to a place where no one was around and directly gave him two thousand Gold Soul Coins.

"This is a reward from Big Sister Xiao Wu. You don't need to pay it back."

Well, damn.

Not bad, not bad.

Su Yan did not stand on ceremony. He accepted the Gold Soul Coins and quietly put them into his Space Ring, then flattered her, saying,

"Big Sister Xiao Wu is truly loyal!"

That said.

Although Xiao Wu had obtained those Gold Soul Coins from Su Yan's Chat Group, they did not actually have much to do with Su Yan. They were the price Ning Rongrong had paid to win Xiao Wu over.

The fact that Xiao Wu was willing to let him use them was quite loyal of her too.

Su Yan was rather satisfied with this. Since Little Rabbit was being so decent, he could help her out in the future and make sure she would not sacrifice herself as a Soul Ring or become someone else's accessory.

After one person and one rabbit completed their shady deal, they returned to the Cafeteria and went to the second floor to eat.

In the shadows.

Tang San watched the intimate pair from afar.

His heart felt as though it were being cut by a knife.

Su Yan, Su Yan!

Out of consideration for us being from the same hometown, I originally did not intend to be too harsh on you. But you have no manners at all.

Was Xiao Wu someone you could lay your hands on?

You have a death wish.

That night.

The companions in the Group Chat were all preparing to rest when they saw Hu Liena send a message.

[Hu Liena: Teacher, I've arrived. Don't worry about my safety anymore.]

[Bibi Dong: ???]

[Bibi Dong: Where did you get to?]

[Su Yan: What were you doing?]

[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Where did you run away to?]

[Yanzi is not Swallow: Hu Liena, are you sure you can escape Bibi Dong's grasp?]

[Hu Liena: I, Hu Liena, will never stand by and watch Tang San rise to power, nor will I watch Tang San destroy our Spirit Hall. That's why I came out to find Qian Renxue.]

[I Am an Orphan: You weren't foolish this time.]

Prince's Mansion.

A smile curled across Qian Renxue's lips.

Hu Liena's ability to make a prompt decision and rush over from Spirit City overnight showed that she was not beyond saving.

Bibi Dong, on the other hand, truly was beyond saving.

"Uncle She."

Qian Renxue called out. From the darkness outside the window came Snake Lance Douluo's voice.

"Young Master, what are your orders?"

Qian Renxue said softly,

"Hu Liena has come from Spirit City to find me. Send our people to secretly receive her."

"Yes, Young Master."

Though Snake Lance Douluo found it somewhat strange, he did not ask any questions.

[Bibi Dong: Hu Liena! Are you trying to rebel?]

[Bibi Dong: Get your ass back to Spirit City right now!]

[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Hahaha!]

[Yanzi is not Swallow: It's over! It's over! Bibi Dong, your disciple Hu Liena doesn't plan to protect you anymore. How infuriating.]

[I Don't Have the Surname Yu: Hu Liena, calm down.]

[Group Member Number Nine: This Group Chat is getting more and more interesting.]

[Hu Liena: I, Hu Liena, swear to defend Teacher Bibi Dong to the death.]

[Hu Liena: Su Yan, are you there? If Little Xue doesn't believe me, what should I say to make her trust me?]

Nuoding Academy.

Su Yan found this even more amusing when he saw it.

Doesn't believe her?

Qian Renxue had probably already started taking action.

She was in the Group Chat too!

Couldn't they see such a huge orphan right there?

[Su Yan: Qian Renxue will believe you, but I still need to remind you: Tang San won't be easy to kill.]

[Su Yan: Tang Hao is secretly protecting Tang San. Tang Hao's strength is definitely not exaggerated. The two Title Douluos beside Qian Renxue definitely won't be enough to handle Tang Hao.]

[Su Yan: Besides that, the Clear Sky Hammer's Self-Created Soul Skill, Exploding Ring, is extremely terrifying. Tang Hao's Ninth Soul Ring is one hundred thousand years old. If he risked his life and used Nine Rings Explosion, he could unleash power close to that of a God.]

[Su Yan: Of course, Tang Hao won't explode all nine rings unless he's forced into a dead end. But even if he casually explodes a few rings, ordinary Title Douluos won't be able to withstand it.]

[Su Yan: Remember to use your brains.]

[Hu Liena: Okay, thank you. Teacher, I won't say more for now. I'm going to find Little Xue first.]

[Bibi Dong: Hu Liena!!!]

[Bibi Dong: Hu Liena, get back here! Come back!]

Pope's Palace.

Bibi Dong was so furious that she was about to explode.

Damn it!

That Little Fox was far too infuriating.

Without saying a word to her, she had actually run off to Heaven Dou City to find Little Xue?

Did she still have any respect for her as her Teacher?

What the hell was she protecting?

When she came back, Bibi Dong would lock her in the Secret Chamber.

Prince's Mansion.

Qian Renxue, however, was stunned.

Clear Sky Hammer?

Nine Rings Explosion?

Power close to that of a God?

Damn it.

How could there be such a massive obstacle?

Qian Renxue felt agitated.

If that was the case, then with her current level of control, she would not be able to kill Tang San. She would need to mobilize the power of the Worship Hall.

[Seven Treasures Little Princess: The Clear Sky Hammer's Self-Created Soul Skill is that powerful?]

[Yanzi is not Swallow: Exploding Ring?]

[Group Member Number Nine: No wonder the Clear Sky Sect is the number one sect under heaven, and the Clear Sky Hammer is the number one Tool Martial Soul under heaven.]

[I Am an Orphan: Su Yan, could you briefly explain the Clear Sky Hammer a little more?]
