A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Was Actually by My Side?!

Xiao Wu lay awake, consumed by fear.

Lin Qingmo was awake too.

He lay in bed, mulling over the absurd events of the day.

How could things have deviated so much?

Could it be the butterfly effect caused by my transmigration?

"Ding-dong!"

The moment Lin Qingmo saw the notification that Xiao Wu had @ mentioned him in the group, he immediately perked up.

[Daddy Douluo]: Oh? A-Tu, you finally spoke again!

[Daddy Douluo]: Strange. Other than Imperial Sister, why have all of you become so quiet?

Lin Qingmo's message made Xiao Wu hesitate even more.

She could tell that Lin Qingmo had mistaken her for someone else.

A "Group Member" from the same world as him.

She wanted to know more about Title Douluo.

But she did not want to reveal her true identity.

For a moment, she had no idea how to respond.

[A Rogue Rabbit]: I...

After typing a single word,

Xiao Wu deleted it again.

Over and over...

She still did not know what to say.

Lin Qingmo waited a while.

When he did not see her continue,

[Daddy Douluo]: All right, all right. I know you're introverted and don't like talking.

[Daddy Douluo]: You want to ask about Tang San's father, right?

[Daddy Douluo]: Tang San's father is Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao, isn't he? Did you forget?

Boom!

The moment Xiao Wu saw that line, her entire body began trembling uncontrollably.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Her heart pounded wildly!

It was fear!

He really is a Title Douluo!

And a particularly formidable-sounding Title Douluo at that.

Xiao Wu felt a chill shoot straight from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

She was so frightened that she nearly sat bolt upright in bed.

She had never imagined that Tang San's father would be such a terrifying existence.

Mom, what should I do...

Xiao Wu wanted to go home so badly.

Spirit City.

Pope Bedchamber.

Bibi Dong had been preparing to rest.

The moment she saw the Chat Group messages, all sleepiness vanished.

Shock flashed through her purple eyes.

"Tang Hao?"

"He is Tang San's father?"

The late-night Chat Group, silent until then, was thrown into an uproar by Lin Qingmo's mention of "Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao."

The first to speak was the usually silent "Green Green Grass."

Her message appeared in obvious fits and starts, as though even typing made her tremble.

[Green Green Grass]: A... Hao...

Just two simple words, yet they carried indescribably complicated emotions.

They seemed to contain longing that had been suppressed for far too long.

And a trace of pain that could not be put into words.

Right after that,

Liu Erlong's message followed.

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: You mean Tang Hao? The Clear Sky Douluo who killed the previous Spirit Hall Pope and was hunted down by Spirit Hall?

Her words were filled with shock.

Inside the teachers' dormitory at Blue Tyrant Academy,

Liu Erlong suddenly sat up in bed.

She stared intently at the Light Screen.

Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao!

He was a legendary figure.

The successor of the Clear Sky Sect, one of the Upper Three Sects.

A ruthless man who had once fought the entire Spirit Hall alone and killed the previous Pope, Qian Xunji!

He is actually the father of that Tang San?

Spirit City.

Pope Bedchamber.

The air around Bibi Dong instantly dropped to freezing point.

Overwhelming killing intent surged within her purple eyes.

Tang Hao had to die, so certain things would not be exposed!

And now, A-Qing had told her that Tang Hao's son was at Notting Academy.

Tang Hao was very likely nearby, protecting him.

No matter what the truth behind Yu Xiaogang's matter was,

Tang Hao had to die!

[The Pope Herself]: Notting Academy...

Just four short words.

Yet they carried a suffocating killing intent.

It was as though, even through the Chat Group, one could feel the icy aura within Pope Palace.

[Daddy Douluo]: Yep, that's him!

[Daddy Douluo]: Tang San's biological father—the Clear Sky Douluo who once shook the world. He's probably hiding in some corner right now, watching Tang San.

[Daddy Douluo]: Poor Xiao Wu. She's sharing a dorm with Tang San now, so Tang Hao has probably had his eye on her for a long time.

He has his eye on me?!

Xiao Wu's face instantly turned deathly pale.

She clenched her blanket tightly.

Her body shook uncontrollably.

No one understood better than her how sharp a Title Douluo's senses were.

As a Title Douluo, Tang Hao must have seen through her Soul Beast identity at a glance!

[A Rogue Rabbit]: !!!

That string of exclamation marks was enough to show Xiao Wu's shock and fear.

She had never imagined that such a terrifying existence had been watching her all along.

And she had foolishly been sharing a dorm with Tang San!

The moment Liu Erlong saw the name "Xiao Wu," she immediately became alert.

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Who is Xiao Wu? Why would Clear Sky Douluo have his eye on her?

When Lin Qingmo saw the question,

He grinned.

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Dragon Mom, your memory really hasn't changed. You even forgot Xiao Wu.

[Daddy Douluo]: Who else could she be? She's the Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast, the Soft Bone Rabbit!

[Daddy Douluo]: A Title Douluo's senses are insanely sharp. Transformed Soul Beasts can't hide from them at all. Tang Hao definitely figured it out ages ago.

[Daddy Douluo]: Netizens all guessed that Tang Hao was planning the same thing he did back then!

[Daddy Douluo]: He wanted Tang San and Xiao Wu to fall in love, just like he and Ah Yin did.

[Daddy Douluo]: Once their feelings ran deep enough, Xiao Wu would naturally be willing to Sacrifice herself to protect Tang San.

[Daddy Douluo]: Then Tang San would get a Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring for free. It'd be an incredible bargain!

Boom!

Those words were like thunder exploding from clear skies, sending the Chat Group into an uproar.

[A Rogue Rabbit]: !!!

[The Pope Herself]: !!!

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: !!!

[Green Green Grass]: Wh... at...

The four Group Members all expressed their shock at once.

Yet every one of them reacted differently.

Xiao Wu was so frightened that she nearly cried.

Sacrifice?!

Become someone else's Spirit Ring?!

She abruptly covered her mouth, stopping herself from making a sound.

But tears still streamed down uncontrollably.

She had finally transformed into a human.

All she wanted was to live well, grow stronger, and avenge her mother.

How could she have encountered something like this?

"Gasp!"

Liu Erlong drew in a sharp breath.

A Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast!

That was a legendary existence.

The value of its Spirit Ring and Soul Bone was enough to drive any Soul Master mad!

Naturally, she was tempted as well.

But she was even more shocked.

I never expected so many enormous secrets to be hidden in tiny Notting Academy.

And Tang Hao's intentions were actually this vicious?

Spirit Hall.

Bibi Dong's gaze flickered.

A Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring... that was precisely what her Second Martial Soul needed!

If she absorbed this Soul Beast's Spirit Ring, her strength would surely rise another level.

And it was a Transformed Soul Beast—weak and easy to control.

But she quickly suppressed the stirrings in her heart.

A-Qing is beside Xiao Wu.

If I send people to hunt Xiao Wu, it will surely make A-Qing suspicious.

This little fellow from another world knew far too many secrets about Douluo Continent.

His value might far exceed a single Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring.

Compared with immediate gains,

In the long run, keeping A-Qing around and obtaining more information was the wiser choice.

Meanwhile, inside a secret stone chamber devoid of daylight,

A fragile Blue Silver Grass trembled gently.

Crystalline droplets of dew formed on its leaves and slowly slid down.

As though it were weeping silently.

Sacrifice...

A-Hao... was that really what he was thinking...?
