Tang San and Xiao Wu's Conversation!

At that moment, Tang San's eyes turned purple.

It also made his later explanation more convincing.

His previous thoughts had never been completely fixed; he had been hesitating all along.

Now, he took this opportunity to lay his cards on the table.

No matter what, in the original work, the bond between Xiao Wu and Tang San had been far too deep.

He did not directly knock her unconscious, seal her Soul Power, and imprison her.

Instead, he advised her to return to the Star Dou Great Forest and grow until the Maturity Period under Da Ming and Er Ming's protection before coming out again.

Moreover, he wanted Xiao Wu to make use of her Natural Advantage and see whether she could help him find high-year Plant Soul Beasts in advance, making his future Soul Ring absorption smoother.

This could also be considered an Advance Investment.

As long as Xiao Wu did not participate in the All-Continent Soul Master Elite Competition, appear in Spirit City, or show herself before those Titled Douluo, she would not Expose Identity.

That would maximize the chances of preventing the tragedy from the original work from happening.

And he himself did not plan to participate in that competition either.

In this life, he wanted to hide himself as much as possible and remain Behind the Scenes.

Develop Stealthily, then amaze everyone.

"What do you mean?"

"I don't understand what you're saying."

"I'm human to begin with. Where am I supposed to go? What Maturity Period?"

After hearing Tang San's words, Xiao Wu, who was still struggling fiercely, felt her pupils tremble. She suddenly raised her head and stared intently at Tang San, seeing purple light radiating from his eyes.

For some reason, her soul trembled. It was as though everything about her had been seen through beneath those purple pupils.

This also made Tang San seeing through her Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit shapeshift more believable.

"Xiao Wu, stop pretending. These eyes of mine can see through your True Identity. You are a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit that shapeshifted into human form, not a real human—at least, not yet. Any Soul Master with an Illusion-Piercing Eye Technique has a high chance of seeing through your identity."

"You were too careless. There are more hidden experts in the human world than you imagined. You should have waited until reaching the Maturity Period before coming out. By then, no one would be able to see through you."

Tang San spoke slowly in an even tone.

"I was indeed careless. I never expected such an extraordinary human child to exist in such a small Remote Place."

"That's right. I am indeed a human shapeshifted from a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit."

"Then why didn't you imprison me, wait until you were strong enough, kill me, and absorb my Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring? Everyone wants one. Even if you can't absorb the Soul Ring, you can absorb a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone. For humans, that is an irresistible temptation."

Xiao Wu's scalp went numb, and her back turned cold.

She had never expected such a terrifying child to exist in the human world.

Since her identity had already been completely seen through, Xiao Wu no longer intended to keep pretending. She looked straight into Tang San's eyes and asked.

"That had originally been my plan."

"However, I only planned to seal your Soul Power and imprison you. I did not intend to absorb your Soul Ring or Soul Bone."

Tang San sighed and spoke slowly.

"Why?"

"That's a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone. They could at least bring you an enormous increase in strength and grant you no fewer than two Soul Bone Skills."

"I don't believe you wouldn't be tempted. You humans are the worst and the greediest!"

Xiao Wu asked in confusion.

"Because I can't bear to hurt such a cute little girl. Although you are a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that shapeshifted, from the moment you chose this path, in a sense, you became someone with a real Human Body. Not every Soul Beast has the courage to sacrifice a hundred thousand years of cultivation to shapeshift into a helpless human child and enter the human world to slowly Recover Strength."

"Your determination shows that there is something extremely important in the human world, something you have to do even at the cost of Sacrifice Life. Am I right?"

Tang San said calmly.

"Hmph, stop acting so hypocritical. I don't need your pity."

"None of you humans are good people."

"I did come to the human world because there is something I have to do."

"This has nothing to do with you. You don't need to know."

"And I don't believe that's your only reason."

When Xiao Wu heard Tang San call her cute, her face first flushed red. She turned her head away to hide it and snorted coldly, but soon lowered her head and spoke sadly.

She did not want to drag Tang San into this.

Because this was her own matter.

Her enemy was too powerful.

Nor did she believe that Tang San, a human, would help her.

Not killing her, imprisoning her, and instead advising her to return had already been the greatest mercy.

"Indeed, that is not my entire reason. It is only one of them."

"The second reason is also the most important one."

"Your Soul Ring and Soul Bone are not suitable for me."

"My Blue Silver Grass follows the path of Extreme Life sublimation. What I need are Soul Rings from Plant Soul Beasts with exceptionally vigorous Life Force. You are not a Plant Soul Beast, and your Life Force is not especially strong. Even if I absorbed you, plants and animals are fundamentally different. I would not be able to inherit and absorb it perfectly."

"As for Soul Bones, I only absorb those produced by life-type Soul Beasts. You are not suitable for me either."

"I do not want to choose an unsuitable Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring out of temporary greed and waste a Soul Ring slot."

"I am not someone who makes decisions carelessly. I must take responsibility for my future and for Blue Silver Grass."

"So I will not absorb your Soul Ring or Soul Bone."

Tang San said indifferently.

He did not reveal that he possessed Twin Martial Souls.

The Clear Sky Hammer followed the path of Extreme Destruction, destruction, and power.

Although Xiao Wu was also an assault-type fighter, compared to true destruction-, devastation-, and power-type Soul Beasts, she was practically insignificant—utter trash.

She was not suitable at all.

Any random Ten Thousand Year Level Soul Beast specializing in destruction, devastation, or power would be countless times stronger than Xiao Wu's so-called assault capabilities before she shapeshifted.

As for the highly useful mobility and survival skills she could produce, such as Void, Invincible Golden Body, Teleportation, and Eight-Stage Kill Toss, they were indeed tempting. But Tang San knew that every gain came with a loss.

If he wanted to pursue pure Extreme Destruction, Extreme Destruction, and Extreme Power, then he had to give up certain things.

Xiao Wu's Soul Skills were among the things that had to be abandoned.

Besides, with Blue Silver Grass of Extreme Life, his recovery and endurance in the later stages would undoubtedly become incomparably astonishing, utterly heaven-defying.

Then, with the Clear Sky Hammer's Extreme Destruction supporting him, his enemies simply would not be able to withstand it.

As long as he used absolute destructive power to eliminate his enemies first, there would be no need for such flashy tricks.

To put it bluntly, Xiao Wu's survival Soul Skills were only needed by the weak.

A true powerhouse used One Force Breaks All Laws!

"Furthermore, I want you to help me search for this type of Plant Soul Beast. Humans and Soul Beasts are not necessarily complete enemies. Soul Beasts have good and bad among them, and humans have good and bad among them. In the end, it is merely that their positions differ."

"Humans kill Soul Beasts, and Soul Beasts eat humans."

"But now that you have shapeshifted into a Human Body, you stand on the human side. The Soul Beasts will naturally reject you."

"There are too many powerful people in the human world. Even if you become a Titled Douluo, your strength alone will still be insignificant. You need an Ally, and I think I would make a pretty good one. You can consider it."

"All right, I have said what needed to be said. Whether you leave or stay is your own decision."

After saying that, Tang San willed it, released the vine restraints around Xiao Wu, turned around, and prepared to leave.
