Evil Soul Master?

After Tang San and Xiao Wu collected their one Gold Soul Coin for the month at Martial Soul Hall, they returned to the academy.

As soon as Xiao Wu returned to the dormitory, she dove straight under her covers.

She was contemplating whether or not she should listen to Luo Yan and go to the appointment tonight.

After all, she did not want her identity as a soul beast who had undergone human reincarnation to be discovered by humans so soon after leaving the Star Dou Great Forest.

However, Xiao Wu was also worried that Luo Yan might be coveting the hundred-thousand-year soul ring and soul bone she possessed.

To go or not to go—she was extremely conflicted.

In the end, Xiao Wu decided to keep the appointment tonight.

Compared to the possibility of Luo Yan having ulterior motives, Xiao Wu was more worried about him spreading her secret.

If that happened, many human powerhouses would surely come to verify the truth. If she encountered a powerful Soul Douluo or a Title Douluo, let alone achieving her goals, she would likely lose her life right there.

Right now, the most important thing in Xiao Wu's heart was finding the murderer who killed her mother.

Tang San seemed to sense that Xiao Wu had made a decision; he paused his cultivation and looked at her:

"Xiao Wu, are you really going to meet that person? What exactly did he say to you?"

Tang San was extremely curious about what Luo Yan had just said to Xiao Wu, especially since it was clearly very important to her.

Xiao Wu did not speak; she began to meditate and cultivate, waiting for the time to arrive.

Seeing this, Tang San roughly guessed the decision Xiao Wu had made.

After a moment of thought, he stood up and walked toward the door.

Notting Junior Soul Master Academy, Dean's office.

"Xiao San, you're saying that person has appeared again!" Hearing Tang San mention Luo Yan, Yu Xiaogang began to tremble slightly.

During this period, Yu Xiaogang had checked himself thoroughly and confirmed that his martial soul had completely vanished.

Every connection had been severed.

Even after losing his martial soul, Yu Xiaogang could clearly feel his soul power fading away bit by bit.

In a little while, he would lose all of his soul power.

At that point, he would become a complete waste.

Ninety-nine percent of commoners had no Innate Soul Power, and he would not only lose his soul power but his martial soul as well!

Every night when he thought about this, Yu Xiaogang would suffer from insomnia.

Tang San noticed Yu Xiaogang's strange behavior and quickly stepped forward to support him, preventing him from falling.

"Xiao San, you just said that the old fellow Matthews mentioned this Luo Yan's strength is very high?" Standing beside Yu Xiaogang, Strong frowned.

Compared to the emotionally affected Yu Xiaogang, as the dean of the Notting Junior Soul Master Academy, he keenly grasped the key point in Tang San's words.

"Yes, Matthews did say that." Tang San nodded slightly.

Tang San did not remember Matthews' exact words, but after comparing the facts, he knew that Luo Yan's current strength was formidable.

After all, he had been able to defeat a four-hundred-year-old Datura Snake before absorbing his first soul ring.

Even the level twenty-nine Yu Xiaogang had failed to defeat a Datura Snake.

Now that he had absorbed his soul ring, he was still crushed by Luo Yan; it was obvious that Luo Yan's strength was at least that of a three-ring Soul Elder.

And just now, Luo Yan hadn't even used his martial soul.

"Then I will take all the teachers with me tonight!"

"I'll have someone notify City Lord Xiao in a moment, and have him bring his men as well. I believe City Lord Xiao will not allow such a person to remain in Notting City!"

"I trust that with so many people, we should be able to detain him and eliminate the threat once and for all!"

Strong said solemnly.

He and Yu Xiaogang had discussed this matter over the past few days.

They suspected that Luo Yan was an evil soul master; only this explanation could account for how Luo Yan was able to devour Yu Xiaogang's martial soul!

Strong and Tang San did not know that Luo Yan was actually Yu Xiaogang's original martial soul, Luo Sanpao.

Yu Xiaogang had not told them.

"Thank you, Dean!" Hearing that Strong was arranging so many people to capture Luo Yan, Tang San felt much more at ease.

"It's nothing. You look after your teacher; I will go to the City Lord's mansion myself!"

Strong nodded slightly, gave Tang San a final instruction, and left the office.

"No matter who you are, you will die tonight!"

Tang San watched Strong's departing back and thought to himself.

[Tang San has developed killing intent toward you, Resentment +985!]

"Achoo!"

Luo Yan had just returned to the hotel when the system notification for resentment points and a sneeze arrived simultaneously.

It seems Tang Buddha is quite the jealous type! Luo Yan assumed it was Tang San thinking back on the intimacy he had just shared with Xiao Wu.

After casting a glance at the Notting Junior Soul Master Academy across the way, Luo Yan pulled his thoughts back and said:

"System, open the panel!"

The familiar panel appeared before Luo Yan once again:

Host: Luo Yan Race: Purple Heaven Thunder Dog Soul Cultivation: Tier 2 Demon Warrior (Peak) Physical Cultivation: Tier 3 Demon Master (Early Stage) Resentment Points: 12810

Looking at the resentment points on the panel, Luo Yan was extremely satisfied.

"The bulk of it came from that Matthews; I should have harvested a bit more from him earlier, but it's a pity that old man's emotions are just too hard to influence."

However, Luo Yan also knew that the higher one's cultivation, the better they could control their own emotions.

Some people with lower cultivation could also control their emotional fluctuations by relying on their life experience.

Time quickly passed until evening; the sun set, the light faded completely, and only the flickering lights rising throughout Notting City remained.

"Oh? This girl arrived quite quickly!"

Luo Yan had just returned from eating dinner at the hotel when he saw a small figure walking out of the academy gates through the window.

She then walked straight toward the entrance of the hotel where Luo Yan was staying.

Seeing this, Luo Yan turned and headed downstairs.

By the time he reached the hotel entrance, Xiao Wu's slender figure was already standing in front of the door.

"Xiao Wu, you're here!" Luo Yan walked up with great enthusiasm when he saw her.

Looking at the smiling Luo Yan, Xiao Wu only asked coldly: "What exactly did you call me here for?!"

"And, how on earth did you find out about that matter!"

Xiao Wu was certain that no one other than Da Ming and Er Ming knew she was a soul beast.

Furthermore, Luo Yan was definitely not a Title Douluo; he absolutely could not have seen through her true form.

"Haha, do you really want to discuss this matter right here?" Luo Yan gestured meaningfully for Xiao Wu to look at the hotel reception desk.

Behind the counter, two attendants were looking over with curiosity.

Xiao Wu noticed the gazes of the two attendants and shut her little mouth.

"Let's go. Once we're upstairs, you'll know why I'm aware of your secret!"

Luo Yan took Xiao Wu's small hand, and without allowing her to refuse, pulled her inside.

Seeing that she couldn't break free, Xiao Wu could only passively let Luo Yan lead her along.

The two quickly returned to the room, but they didn't notice that just as they entered the hotel, another group of people appeared at the academy gates.

It was Strong and Tang San, with Yu Xiaogang also in the middle of the group.
