Gu Yue went to the front desk to get the key, and she even dangled it in front of Jiang Huai.

Jiang Huai smiled when he saw this, and before long, the four of them went upstairs to the Red Ocean suite, a room themed primarily around roses.

Gu Yue and Jiang Huai were fine with it, but Tang San was different; he stood foolishly outside the room door.

Jiang Huai looked back and asked, "What's wrong, San?"

Tang San scratched his head in embarrassment upon hearing this and said, "Brother Huai, isn't this place a bit..."

Jiang Huai understood what he was saying, so he stepped forward and patted Tang San on the shoulder, saying, "What are you afraid of? Gu Yue and I have been here several times. Look at Xiao Wu."

Tang San looked over and saw Xiao Wu playing around on the bed with Gu Yue. Seeing this, Tang San shook his head; he knew that when they were children, Xiao Wu had slept in the same bed as Jiang Huai and Gu Yue.

However, he just felt that Jiang Huai and Gu Yue were still children, and at the very least, Jiang Huai and Gu Yue had already confirmed their relationship.

In fact, when Jiang Huai and Gu Yue confirmed their relationship, Jiang Yi, who was hidden in the shadows, had already sent word back to the Jiang Kingdom about the young master dating someone, and the ruler of the Jiang Kingdom, Jiang Liuyu, had happily shared the news with his Princess Consort.

The next morning, Tang San got up from the sofa early. He looked at Jiang Huai, who was sitting on the sofa cultivating, shook his head, and then went to wash up by himself.

Before long, Jiang Huai emerged from his meditative cultivation. He stretched, glanced at the empty sofa beside him, and then lay down.

Hearing the movement, Tang San walked in from the balcony and saw Jiang Huai lying on the sofa with his eyes closed, resting, while rubbing his brow.

Tang San asked, "Brother Huai, how about we go stroll through the streets here for a while?"

Jiang Huai nodded and said, "Hmm, that works. I've made some progress in my research on Soul Tools recently, so it's a good time to buy some materials and try crafting one."

Soon, Gu Yue and Xiao Wu got up from the bed and went to the balcony to wash up. Once Xiao Wu was finished, she hopped over to Jiang Huai and asked, "Brother Huai, where are we going to play today?"

Jiang Huai replied that they would just wander around, but added that they wouldn't be spending his money, and if she wanted to buy anything, she should go find her fourth brother.

Hearing this, Xiao Wu muttered to herself and twirled her fingers. Seeing this, Gu Yue walked over with a smile and said, "It's fine to look around, and if you see something you like, you can look into buying it."

Jiang Huai nodded at this and said, "Let's go."

Soon, the four of them were walking along the streets of Suotuo City, where there were many stalls of various sizes, carriages, and all sorts of items for sale on both sides of the road.

Tang San walked outside a shop and shouted, "Brother Huai! Come here."

Jiang Huai looked over, nodded, and patted Gu Yue, who was eating something, saying, "Let's go there, San is calling us."

Gu Yue nodded and said, "Okay!"

Gu Yue took a bite of the last piece of meat on her skewer, patted Xiao Wu, and then the two of them ran over.

Seeing Gu Yue with oil all over her mouth, Jiang Huai took out a handkerchief, handed it to her, and said gently, "Wipe it off yourself."

Gu Yue nodded, took the handkerchief to wipe her mouth, and after returning it to Jiang Huai, asked, "Where to?"

Jiang Huai, Gu Yue, and Xiao Wu walked to the front of a shop, from which the sounds of Tang San arguing with someone could be heard.

Jiang Huai pushed the door open in confusion, and Gu Yue and Xiao Wu followed him inside, equally puzzled.

At that moment, Tang San was arguing with a shopkeeper who had a face like a shoehorn over a piece of stone. Jiang Huai stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.

Tang San turned around when he was patted, and Jiang Huai gave him a reassuring look.

The shoehorn-faced shopkeeper glanced at Jiang Huai and looked him up and down. He froze when he saw Jiang Huai's belt, because there was a character "Jiang" engraved on it; in the entire continent, who else besides that one family had the qualifications to engrave characters on a Soul Tool?

The shoehorn-faced shopkeeper asked Jiang Huai suspiciously, "Kid, what's your name?"

Jiang Huai straightened his clothes and said, "My name is Jiang Huai."

Upon hearing this, the shoehorn-faced shopkeeper stepped back in fear. It was obvious that Tang San and Jiang Huai knew each other. If Tang San told this young master about his malicious pricing, the shopkeeper shook his head at the thought.

Jiang Huai glanced at the stone on the table, picked it up to examine it, and then asked with a smirk, "How much?"

The shoehorn-faced shopkeeper said fawningly, "It's just a broken stone, it's not worth much."

"I asked you how much?"

The shopkeeper wiped his sweat and said, "I'll sell it to you for ten Gold Soul Coins. I obtained this when I was training on the Douluo Continent."

Upon hearing the price, Jiang Huai placed the Gold Soul Coins on the table. Seeing the coins, the shopkeeper finally confirmed Jiang Huai's identity.

Back in the hotel room, Tang San took out the stone. Jiang Huai didn't say anything, but instead placed the item he had bought for forty Gold Soul Coins on the floor—he put it on the floor to avoid losing any parts, as it would be bad if a component fell into the sofa.

Tang San took out a Forging Hammer and struck the stone hard. Instead of shattering into pieces, the stone turned into glowing spheres of light that floated in the air.

Tang San was ecstatic and asked the three of them to help collect them. Jiang Huai nodded and reached out to collect them using the same technique he used for sword practice.

Soon, more than fifty of them were in Tang San's hands. Jiang Huai picked up one of the spheres in confusion and examined it, asking, "What is this thing?"

Tang San put the Hair Crystal into his Soul Tool, picked one at random, and said proudly, "This is a type of extremely subtle hidden weapon. It can easily pierce through a person's flesh and bone."

Seeing that they didn't believe him, Tang San threw the Hair Crystal using a unique technique, and it transformed into a Dragon Whisker Needle as it flew out.

The Dragon Whisker Needle pierced through a pillar in the room and pinned itself into the wall. Jiang Huai walked slowly to the needle and pulled it out.

After examining it, Jiang Huai said, "Not bad. It can easily kill an unprepared Soul Master, but if you encounter a highly vigilant Soul Master, this thing might be completely useless."

Tang San looked at Jiang Huai and nodded, "That's right. Its sharpness is sufficient, but it's useless against powerful Strength Soul Masters or Defense Soul Masters. However, how could I possibly give an enemy the chance to fight back?"

Jiang Huai nodded and smiled, "Soul Masters below the Soul King level definitely won't be able to block this hidden weapon of yours."

Soon, Jiang Huai began assembling his own Soul Tool. He spent two days just carving the soul runes.

Two days later...

Jiang Huai cleaned the carved soul runes and then picked up the items he had bought two days ago to begin assembly.

After some time...

A hand cannon appeared in Jiang Huai's hand. Tang San looked at the brand-new cannon in confusion and asked, "Brother Huai, what is this?"

Jiang Huai picked up the hand cannon and said, "I call it the Deadly Void. It's a weapon that leaves no corpse behind even after killing someone. It can erase a person's body into nothingness, allowing them to die without pain."
