Then Again~

A few days later.

Stretching forward with force.

"Pectoralis Major-chan~ what do you like?"

"Hi~ I like chicken breast the most~ but I like~ you~ even more~"

Thrusting hips and tightening!

"Sphincter-chan~ what do you like?"

"Hi~ I like spiced beef~ but I also like~ you~ even more~"

At this moment, Wang Chuan was performing his pre-workout warm-up.

The song he had written and directed himself played on a loop in his mind, and he was completely immersed in his own art, unable to extricate himself.

But just then, a gentle voice rang out.

"Cousin Wang Chuan, I have something to discuss with you. I wonder if I might disturb you for a moment."

Wang Chuan's movements paused, but he quickly found his rhythm again, completely ignoring the owner of the voice, Yu Xiaogang.

This was because Wang Chuan knew very well.

No matter how much change Yu Xiaogang appeared to have undergone, his rotten nature would not completely disappear in such a short amount of time.

And the facts were exactly as Wang Chuan had thought.

Being ignored, the gentle smile that Yu Xiaogang had struggled to maintain now turned visibly awkward and stiff.

This scene was noticed by quite a few clansmen who had been secretly observing Wang Chuan, and then it spread from ten to a hundred, with everyone beginning to turn their attention here.

However, no one dared to gossip about Yu Xiaogang.

Because the lesson of Wang Chuan's precedent was right there.

Yu Xiaogang felt increasingly humiliated.

But this nearly one year of confinement had truly tempered his temperament, and he was no longer as arrogant as he used to be due to petty emotions and his status.

At the same time, Yu Xiaogang secretly swore that once he found out which soul beast Wang Chuan's chosen soul ring came from, and added his own "hard work" to become a high-level soul master, he would definitely make these snobs look at him with new eyes in the future!

He would let these guys know what it meant to say that there are no useless martial souls, only useless soul masters!

But the reality was that Yu Xiaogang hurriedly put some distance between himself and Wang Chuan.

Because after warming up, Wang Chuan began to pump iron with exaggerated, large stone dumbbells.

Yu Xiaogang hadn't felt anything while watching from afar before, but now, facing Wang Chuan's workout scene directly, the mere force of the wind generated by the swinging dumbbells made his heart tremble.

He was terrified that if Wang Chuan's hand slipped, he would be seriously injured.

After exercising his entire body's muscles, Wang Chuan summoned Golden Scale again and began training with it coiled around him.

Yu Xiaogang stared fixedly at this scene, the greed in his eyes visible to the naked eye.

Wang Chuan noticed this through his peripheral vision and thought to himself that, as expected, Yu Xiaogang never visited without a reason; he had indeed come to covet the secret of his martial soul.

Once the training session ended, Wang Chuan began to sweat profusely and pant heavily, looking both disheveled and exhausted.

At this moment, Golden Scale shrank its form and coiled around Wang Chuan's right arm.

Coupled with Wang Chuan's clearly formidable physique, it gave off a very unruly and reckless vibe, and then Wang Chuan headed straight for the cafeteria.

Yu Xiaogang was instantly dumbfounded and hurriedly shouted.

"Hey! Cousin, don't go! I really have something to ask you, don't go!"

But Wang Chuan had no intention of paying any attention to Yu Xiaogang.

In the world of soul masters, strength is respected. No matter how noble Yu Xiaogang's status was, as long as he didn't cross the bottom line, Yu Xiaogang couldn't bring out Yu Yuanzhen to suppress him.

Therefore, Wang Chuan wasn't intimidated in the slightest.

Want to ask about his secret? Keep dreaming!

But just then, Yu Xiaogang hurriedly said, "I have something to ask you, and I am willing to pay ten thousand Gold Soul Coins!"

Wang Chuan's footsteps came to an immediate halt.

But then again~

If the other party wasn't looking for a freebie, it wasn't entirely out of the question to negotiate.

However, when Wang Chuan turned around, his expression remained indifferent.

Because Wang Chuan knew deep down that in business, one must never reveal their bottom line through their expression; one must let the other party know they are unsatisfied so as to maximize profits.

Thus, Wang Chuan said indifferently.

"The Second Young Master certainly has refined tastes, but first tell me what you want to ask. We can discuss the price later."

Watching Wang Chuan's attitude shift so drastically, the corner of Yu Xiaogang's mouth twitched.

He only knew that prying into other soul masters' secrets was a path to death, but if both parties were willing to exchange benefits, then it wasn't impossible.

He had only shouted like that because he had seen Wang Chuan's indifferent, stubborn attitude just a moment ago.

Soon, a proper smile hung on the corners of Yu Xiaogang's mouth.

Because no matter how foolish Yu Xiaogang might be, he could see by now that while Wang Chuan appeared calm on the surface, he was actually a lover of money.

And as the second young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, money was the one thing he had in abundance!

Now, it was his home turf!

Yu Xiaogang coughed twice, forcibly suppressing the arrogance in his bones, and put on the hypocritical smile he had practiced over the past year.

"It's like this, cousin. I would like to ask what kind of soul beast your first soul ring came from?

As compensation, I am willing to pay ten thousand Gold Soul Coins," Yu Xiaogang said indifferently.

At the same time, there was a deep sense of disdain in the depths of Yu Xiaogang's heart.

Because in his view, trading ten thousand Gold Soul Coins for such a small piece of information meant Wang Chuan was making a huge profit.

And to him, this money was merely pocket change~

But just as Yu Xiaogang waited confidently for Wang Chuan to provide an answer, Wang Chuan shook his head with great indifference.

Yu Xiaogang's smile froze once again, and then he said in disbelief.

"You... you're refusing?

It's just information about a soul ring; I'm not offering one hundred or one thousand Gold Soul Coins.

It's ten thousand, cousin. Did you mishear me, and that's why you're refusing?"

But just then, Wang Chuan smiled.

"Of course not."

In the few short seconds that had just passed, Wang Chuan had used his super intelligence to think through many things!

Admittedly, Wang Chuan could directly reveal the information about the Titan Golden Python and earn those ten thousand Gold Soul Coins from Yu Xiaogang.

But the problem was that there was a slight difference between the initial forms of Luo Sanpao and Golden Scale.

This meant that what was suitable for him might not necessarily be suitable for Yu Xiaogang.

And the facts were indeed just that.

Whether it was the Golden Sacred Dragon state of Yu Xiaogang's Martial Soul Fusion Skill or the Radiant Sacred Dragon inherited through his bloodline ten thousand years later, both belonged to the Pterosaur Species.

Therefore, a soul ring from a Serpent-Dragon Species would most likely not be suitable for Yu Xiaogang.

However, Wang Chuan was not worried about this.

In any case, he had evidence to prove that the soul ring he had absorbed was indeed from a Titan Golden Python.

The only concern Wang Chuan had was that Yu Xiaogang might hold a grudge and come to pester him again later; if he were forced to expose his thousand-year first soul ring then, the trouble would be even greater.

So, after thinking it over, Wang Chuan decided to give Yu Xiaogang a complete suggestion for his soul ring selection.

This way, he could earn a little more and avoid unnecessary trouble.

As for whether Yu Xiaogang would break through the shackles of a Soul Elder in the future because of this.

Would that have a significant impact on the entire Douluo Continent?

In Wang Chuan's view, with Yu Xiaogang's method of cultivation relying on piled-up resources.

Even if he broke through the shackles of a Soul Elder, his future achievements would be very limited, and he would most likely just walk the same old path as before.
