"Sir, what about this Human-faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring..."

After Lin Feng agreed to let Meng Yiran become his concubine, Meng Shu relaxed a bit and asked about the Human-faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring.

"Human-faced Demon Spider?" Lin Feng shook his head. "She can't absorb this Human-faced Demon Spider."

Upon hearing this, Meng Shu and the others looked displeased. Joining someone's service but not even getting the benefit of a Soul Ring was not a good thing. However, thinking of Lin Feng's strength, the three of them ultimately didn't dare to say anything.

As if sensing their thoughts, Lin Feng threw the Human-faced Demon Spider beside them. "Don't misunderstand, take a good look at the age of this Human-faced Demon Spider."

"The Human-faced Demon Spider's age... This! This is a two-thousand-year-old Human-faced Demon Spider!"

After the Dragon Duke took a closer look at the Human-faced Demon Spider, he broke out in a cold sweat.

A two-thousand-year Soul Ring already exceeded the normal absorption limit of 1,700 years for a third Soul Ring, especially when it was a Human-faced Demon Spider. If Meng Yiran were to absorb this Soul Ring, she would likely die or be severely injured.

"Fortunately, fortunately, we didn't catch this Human-faced Demon Spider back then. If Yiran had absorbed it, I fear we would have regretted it too late. Thank you for the reminder, Master." The Dragon Duke patted Meng Yiran with lingering fear, then bowed deeply to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng waved his hand, signaling the three not to worry.

"With this age, it seems no one can absorb the Human-faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring. It's a pity for such a top-tier Soul Ring," the Snake Dowager said regretfully, looking at the Human-faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring.

"It's not that it's completely unabsorbable." As Lin Feng spoke, the three looked at him in unison. Sensing their gazes, Lin Feng nodded.

"Fine. Since you're working under me, I will still give you some benefits. A two-thousand-year Soul Ring can be considered as a third ring with some effort, but it will be more costly. Speaking of which, how much money does your family have?"

The Dragon Duke cupped his hands in a salute. "Replying to Master, the family's remaining Gold Spirit Coins are around one million. However, if we sell all the family's assets, we can still get ten to twenty million Gold Spirit Coins."

"So much!" Lin Feng was somewhat surprised. After all, the Peerless Dragon Snake's family was not the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School, nor even one of the Seven Great Sects. He didn't expect them to have so much money.

The Dragon Duke smiled. "After all, I still have the title of Peerless Dragon Snake. That Spirit Fusion Skill, which even Titled Douluo are wary of, allows me to be considered invincible when Titled Douluo are not present. Therefore, over the years, the two great empires, especially the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family, have been trying to win me over, so..."

"I understand," Lin Feng nodded, thinking of the gap between university students from the 70s and those from the 2000s.

"Take the Human-faced Demon Spider to the Sunset Forest, and by the way, help that Canghui Academy student hunt a thousand-year Soul Ring. Also, sell all the assets your family can sell. I need money right now."

"Yes, Master!"

The Dragon Duke Meng Shu agreed and immediately began to act. After the Dragon Duke and Snake Dowager left, Ning Rongrong came to Lin Feng's side. "Brother Lin Feng needs money very much?"

Lin Feng nodded, not hiding anything. "I've been quite short on money lately."

"Brother Lin Feng, to be honest, my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School cannot stand to see good people like you lacking money. Therefore, my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School is willing to offer this amount to help Brother Lin Feng." Ning Rongrong said, holding up two fingers, which made Lin Feng's eyes light up.

"Twenty million?"

"Two hundred million, consider it my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School making friends with Brother Lin Feng."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng grasped Ning Rongrong's hand. "From now on, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School is my best friend. Please send my regards to Uncle Ning, and I will personally bring gifts to visit Uncle Ning in Heaven Dou City in a year."

Ning Rongrong tilted her head, her gaze questioning. "In a year?"

"Yes, because I have some matters to attend to during this period, and I really can't make it to Heaven Dou City. Please apologize to Uncle Ning on my behalf."

Lin Feng dared not go to Heaven Dou City now, as Qian Renxue was there.

Qian Renxue was Qian Daoliu's only relative. She was usually protected by two Titled Douluo. Moreover, Qian Renxue was still young in Qian Daoliu's eyes, so Qian Daoliu might inevitably want to see her.

Of course, Lin Feng, who had beaten Tang Hao, was theoretically not an enemy of Qian Daoliu. But what if something unexpected happened? What if Qian Daoliu feared Lin Feng's monstrous talent and thought he might threaten Spirit Hall, thus deciding to kill him directly without even trying to recruit him? With Lin Feng's current strength, if Qian Daoliu had any ill intentions, his life would be forfeit.

Lin Feng didn't want to take the risk. If he wanted to take risks, Tang San would have died long ago.

Otherwise, could Zhao Wuji really have taken Tang San away from Lin Feng with his strength?

It was only because Tang San was Tang Hao's last hope. Lin Feng feared that Tang Hao, who had lost his wife and been expelled from his sect, would have nothing left to live for and would desperately fight Lin Feng to the death.

Theoretically, Tang Hao had no means to take Lin Feng down with him, but what if the theory was wrong? One only had one life!

Lin Feng didn't want to gamble his own safety on the possibility that the other party had no such means, because life was only once, and there were no second chances for fatal mistakes.

Therefore, before he was confident he could kill Tang Hao without getting hurt, Lin Feng would not choose to push Tang Hao to the point where his only option was mutual destruction. Similarly, before he had the strength to face Qian Daoliu, Lin Feng had to avoid Qian Renxue, because Lin Feng didn't want to put himself in a situation where his life depended entirely on someone else's whim, even if that situation was likely just Lin Feng's own imagination.

As for why he wouldn't be afraid in a year, it was because the plot of Douluo Dalu II was approaching. One year was enough for Lin Feng to complete the fusion of Tian Meng and Bing Di, raise his Soul Power to level seventy or above, possess a million-year-level Spirit Avatar, and complete the three-word Battle Armor.

At that time, even without using his trump cards, he would have the strength to fight against Limit Douluo. Whether it was killing Tang Hao or directly facing Qian Daoliu, there would be no danger to his life, so he could naturally be more relaxed.

But not now. He absolutely could not be reckless now, nor could he force a Titled Douluo to have the thought of mutual destruction.

"If that's the case, then I will tell Father to wait for Brother Lin Feng in Heaven Dou City in a year." Ning Rongrong didn't ask in detail what Lin Feng would do in the next year. Facing a strong person, Ning Rongrong was very understanding.

"That would be for the best."

The news that Lin Feng would visit Ning Fengzhi in Heaven Dou City in a year was quickly conveyed to Ning Fengzhi by Ning Rongrong.

During this process, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School did not conceal the information much. After all, the news of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School befriending another strong individual brought nothing but benefits to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School.

And with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School not concealing it, in a cave near Holy Spirit Village.

The Four-Eyed Owl Flander knelt on one knee. "Haotian Your Excellency, the Soul Master who killed Xiao Wu will visit the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School's Sect Master Ning Fengzhi in Heaven Dou City in one year."

"I know, you may leave."

"Yes."

After Flander withdrew, Tang Hao slowly exhaled, his gaze softly falling on his right leg. It was no longer the ten-thousand-year Soul Bone from before, but a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone.

Replacing Soul Bones was generally impossible. However, fortunately, Tang Hao's Soul Bone was on his right leg, and the ability of the hundred-thousand-year Soul Bone was healing, which allowed him to complete the replacement. Otherwise, the Soul Bone could be removed, but inserting a new one was not so easy.

"A year? That's perfect."

Tang Hao stroked his right leg, where all his injuries had healed. His Soul Power was also rapidly recovering, and it wouldn't be long before he returned to level ninety-five.

What surprised Tang Hao even more was the boost he received from the combined effects of his Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone. When he first fused with the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, his Soul Power had directly reached level ninety-two. Although he had been drunk every day since then, the power of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring was too immense. Even while lying around, his Soul Power had still slowly climbed to level ninety-five.

As is widely known, the benefits for a Soul Master absorbing a Soul Ring and Soul Bone produced by the same Spirit Beast are enormous. Therefore, the benefits of this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone were even greater than Tang Hao had imagined.

Even without Tang San clearing his meridians for him, he could feel that with the combined effects of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone, he wasn't far from reaching level ninety-six. In fact, reaching level ninety-seven was only a matter of time.

"Damn old man, just you wait. Tian Dou City, one year from now, will be your death date and your grave!"
