The next morning at dawn, the golden rooster crowed.
Lin Yuan slowly opened his eyes after finishing his cultivation, and at the same time, he heard the system's voice in his ear.
[Congratulations, host, on successfully integrating all your killing intent into the Asura Demon Sword. You are rewarded with an increase of 10,000 years in your Soul Bone's lifespan.]
[Congratulations, host, for killing several Titled Douluo in the City of Slaughter. Your Soul Power will increase by one level.]

Lin Yuan looked up at the system information that popped up in front of him, and was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected the reward to be so generous this time.
Torso Soul Bone of 100,000 years...
That's something even more precious than the Head Soul Bone.
Lin Yuan smiled slightly. It seemed that only by killing Titled Douluo of the same realm could he bring himself a generous reward.
Looking at the Hundred-Thousand-Year Torso Soul Bone in front of him, Lin Yuan naturally put it away. If Ling Ling could win the championship of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament Grand Finals, he would give the Soul Bone to her.
Consider it a reward for her.
Lin Yuan slowly stood up, patted the dust off his shoulders, and then stepped out of the room.
Outside the room, Xiao Wu was sweeping the dust in the courtyard. When she saw Lin Yuan, she subconsciously took two steps back, her eyes revealing a hint of fear.
Lin Yuan sat on a chair in the pavilion, resting his chin on his hand, and asked, "Has Ling Ling not returned yet?"
Xiao Wu replied weakly, "Ling Ling went to train with the others, and Senior Shang Que went with her too."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan nodded and did not say anything more. Instead, he took out a book from his Soul Tool and began to read it, while also searching for information about the Deity within the Great Death Canyon.
Since the last incident, Lin Yuan has known that there are Deity in the Great Death Canyon, but he does not know what kind of Deity they are.
All that is known is that the Deity who reside here are definitely not benevolent; they may even be Rakshasa God or something similar.
Just as Lin Yuan was thinking, Xiao Wu tiptoed over, knelt in front of Lin Yuan, and reached out her small hands to massage his thigh muscles.
"Senior, is this force enough?"
Lin Yuan, focused on the book in his hands, replied perfunctorily, "It's alright, you can manage with a little effort."
"Uh-huh."
Xiao Wu gently bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, and then, just like last time, lowered her head and diligently massaged Lord Lin Yuan, hoping that he would allow her to go out for a while because of her hard work.
Lin Yuan noticed Xiao Wu's actions, but he was focused on reading and ignored her, letting Xiao Wu work hard.
About half an hour later, Xiao Wu stood up, her face flushed, wiped the water from the corner of her mouth, and said softly, "Senior, could you give me a day... so I can go out for a stroll?"
Lin Yuan looked at Xiao Wu in front of him, then said calmly, "Fine, I'll give you one day, but if you don't return by sunset, you should understand what my methods are."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu quickly nodded her thanks. After helping Lord Lin Yuan get dressed, Xiao Wu rushed to the Shrek Academy to see her third brother.
When the teachers and students of the Shrek Academy saw Xiao Wu, they couldn't help but look at her with surprise. How could she have come back alive?
Ignoring the questions from others, Xiao Wu went straight to Tang San's room.
Tang San had just woken up. Due to excessive longing, Tang San body was extremely weak. He needed Dai Mubai to bring him food, and sometimes he even needed to be fed.
"Elder brother!"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Tang San suddenly looked up at Xiao Wu at the door. Memories from another world flooded his mind. Ignoring the pain in his body, Tang San fell off the bed, looking extremely disheveled.
"Xiao Wu, you're back?!"
Tang San's eyes were filled with heartache. Recalling the pain he endured every day from being pierced by a thousand arrows, which almost drove him to the brink of collapse, he only hoped to see Xiao Wu, whom he longed to see most, again.
Seeing Tang San's haggard appearance, Xiao Wu's heart was filled with pain. However, she knew that if she sacrificed herself for Tang San, all the disciples of the Shrek Academy would disappear completely from the Douluo Continent.
Having been by Lin Yuan's side for so long, Xiao Wu understands Lin Yuan's character better than anyone else, and understands his personality even more. Even if she does something insignificant, she is very likely to be punished in an unprecedented way.
Dean Flander and the others also came to Tang San's room as soon as they learned that Xiao Wu had returned.
Seeing that Xiao Wu was not dead, the group finally breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that their Shrek Academy student might lose her life because of it.
However, a few Soul Master still had greedy looks in their eyes. The benefits brought by Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast were undeniable; it was something that one could never obtain in a lifetime.
Now that it's right here in front of us, who among us wouldn't be tempted?
That's something that could make them influential on the continent. "Dean Flander, Master, Teacher Zhao Wuji, you've come too."
Xiao Wu greeted everyone, but it was easy to tell from her expression and movements that Xiao Wu was clearly struggling.
Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang looked at Xiao Wu with a strange expression, unable to believe that His Lord Lin Yuan could actually bring her back; it was indeed quite unbelievable.
"Xiao Wu, did you run away from home without permission?"
Dai Mubai couldn't help but ask.
"His Lord Lin Yuan gave me a day off to go out and explore... That's why I came to the Shrek Academy... But I have to go back at sunset."
At this point, a look of disappointment flashed in Xiao Wu's eyes; clearly, she also wanted to stay at the Shrek Academy forever.
But Xiao Wu also knew in her heart that if she stayed here, she would not only suffer the pain of being pierced by a thousand arrows, but also suffer unimaginable punishment.
Even the students of the Shrek Academy couldn't escape.
Dean Flander pushed up his glasses and asked solemnly, "Xiao Wu, now that you're back, why don't you go straight back to the Star Dou Forest? It might be safer there."
Xiao Wu smiled bitterly. If the Star Dou Forest were safe, there wouldn't have been the scene where the Ferocious Beast Di Tian and Da Ming Er Ming were scared away.
Under the Lord Lin Yuan, the Da Ming Er Ming are nothing to fear.
