Little San, Do You See Who I Am? Tang San's Sudden Repentance, I'm Truly a Beast!

"Teacher..."

Within the sea of consciousness, Qian Renxue could no longer bear to watch.

She knew the nature of this Old Poison; he had always been a law unto himself, acting with extreme prejudice, and there were few people on the entire continent who could catch his eye.

Yet at this very moment, Instead of racking his brains to find a way to survive, he was begging the other party to spare his granddaughter.

This made her involuntarily think of

the old man who once held her in the palm of his hand, doting on her beyond measure.

Moreover, Dugu Yan could be considered an old acquaintance of hers; while her temperament was a bit fiery, her heart was not bad.

If Dugu Bo were to die here, she would have no face left to see her again.

"Heh, womanly kindness!"

"Mercy toward an enemy is the greatest cruelty to oneself!"

"If he becomes your enemy in the future, do not come crying to me with regrets!"

"Thank you for your instruction, Teacher. The world is ever-changing; I do not know what the future holds, but at least for now, I have no regrets!"

Qian Renxue affirmed.

Ling Xiao sighed softly, ultimately choosing not to strike Dugu Bo down.

"Submit, or die!"

"This Seat is always lenient toward subordinates; I can overlook your recklessness!"

"The poison on you and your granddaughter—This Seat can help you resolve it!"

He actually held no prejudice against Dugu Bo; he simply knew this old poison-user had a foul and stubborn temperament, making him troublesome and exhausting to subdue, which was why he hadn't bothered with pleasantries at the start.

Later, seeing the man about to lean toward Tang San, he had acted out of instinct.

Now that Qian Renxue had interceded, he didn't mind going with the flow and giving this old poison-user a chance to choose.

Furthermore, seeing Qian Renxue's attitude, Ling Xiao had other plans forming in his mind.

Dugu Bo suddenly raised his head, too shocked to speak.

He had not expected the other party to not only spare him and his granddaughter but also offer to cure their poison.

And this condition—

It was one he simply could not refuse!

"This subordinate... thanks you, my lord, for the grace of sparing my life!"

Dugu Bo immediately kowtowed to the ground.

Ling Xiao nodded in satisfaction, just as he prepared to help him up—

Suddenly, he sensed an extremely faint fluctuation of spiritual power.

Ling Xiao did not move, but his spiritual sense instantly locked onto Tang San, who was hiding behind a rock with eyes shimmering with a faint purple hue.

"Your spiritual power is indeed far beyond that of an ordinary person, but you think you can spy on This Seat with such petty tricks?"

"You are still too green!"

Ling Xiao sneered inwardly, and just as he was about to give the other party a small lesson, he suddenly thought of something interesting, and the corners of his mouth curled upward.

Behind the rock, Tang San saw Dugu Bo falling into a disadvantageous position; in the past, he might have truly rolled up his sleeves and jumped in himself.

But in this life, he no longer possessed his former recklessness.

He was now a God King, shouldering the mission of saving the world; how could he easily put himself in danger?

Yet he was truly unwilling!

To watch helplessly as someone snatched away the immortal herbs, while he didn't even know the identity of the other party—

What could be more humiliating than this?

It wasn't until the opponent knocked Dugu Bo to the ground that he realized his chance had come!

People are highly vigilant of their surroundings while fighting, but there is bound to be a moment of relaxation once the battle ends.

He quietly circulated his soul power, injecting it into his eyes.

With the foundation of two lifetimes of cultivation experience, even though he hadn't consumed the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew in this life yet, his Purple Demon Eye had already stepped into the third realm—the Mustard Seed Realm.

It could see through all disguises, and not even a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast was an exception.

Moreover, his control was even stronger than before, ensuring he could do this without anyone noticing!

He would see through this person's disguise and memorize his true face.

Even if he couldn't touch him now, once his cultivation was restored in the future, he would be the first one he ground into dust.

However, when he channeled his Purple Demon Eye to scan Ling Xiao's face—

he was so terrified that his heart nearly jumped out of his chest.

"How is this possible?"

"Impossible... impossible..."

"I must have seen it wrong!"

Although he knew the Purple Demon Eye could not be wrong, at this moment, he would rather believe that there was a problem with his technique, would rather believe that his eyes were playing tricks on him, than believe what he was seeing!

Yet, when he increased the input of his soul power, going all out, what he saw remained that same face.

The face of a middle-aged man.

His face was weathered, his cheeks covered in stubble, yet his eyes remained bright.

"Dad... why would Dad appear here?"

Tang San's brain buzzed, but he had to accept reality.

"Could it be that he discovered I was abducted by Dugu Bo and rushed over to save me immediately?"

Thinking of this, Tang San's heart was instantly filled with that great paternal love, and he was so moved that he wanted to rush out immediately and hug his old father.

But he still forcibly held himself back.

There was still a sliver of doubt in his heart that had not been resolved.

Since he came to save him, why would he refuse to show his true face?

"Ah, that's it!"

Tang San suddenly realized.

"Dad is still carrying a wanted warrant from Martial Soul Hall, so naturally, he can't show his face openly."

"And he must be afraid that if I recognized him as a Title Douluo and realized I had such a massive backer, I would lose the motivation to strive on my own!"

Thinking of the other's painstaking efforts, Tang San wanted to slap himself twice.

Back when he had just been reborn, he had even felt hatred for his father's useless appearance, looking down on him and despising him in his heart.

Thinking about it now—

"I really am a beast!"

"How could I have questioned him and denied him like that?"

Ling Xiao did not know what was going on inside Tang San's head, but looking at his constantly changing expression, he knew that the boy's inner thoughts must be quite spectacular at this moment.

However, Qian Renxue's plea for mercy toward Dugu Bo, as well as Tang San's intrusion, caused a slight change in his own thoughts.

He was Qian Renxue's teacher, but he was not her nanny.

If she relied on him for everything, Without setbacks and hardships, one could at most reach the level of those five God Kings.

"Disciple, do you see that? That brat is your first whetstone."

"Only by defeating him will you be qualified to be my disciple!"

Following Ling Xiao's mental guidance, Qian Renxue naturally caught sight of Tang San.

She froze for a moment, then felt somewhat amused and exasperated:

"Him? Make him my opponent? A child of twelve or thirteen?"

But before her words had even faded, she sensed something amiss.

She carefully sensed him.

"Hm? He is actually only one step away from reaching the Soul Ancestor realm?"

"He is truly a rare genius."

But even so... she was a dignified Soul King; how could he possibly be her opponent?

Qian Renxue was puzzled.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you—"

"I have decided on a whim that I will not restore all of your cultivation for the time being."

"Consider it a test for you!"

"Ah? No—"

Qian Renxue bristled on the spot.

"Teacher, how can you go back on your word again and break your promise?"

Her body had been used by Ling Xiao, and Dugu Bo had been beaten to the ground.

Just as she was about to harvest the immortal herbs and restore her cultivation, he was actually going back on his word and refusing to do it?

How could this be allowed?

"Hmph, is it that I won't restore your cultivation? Look at yourself first; how pathetic has your physical fitness become?"

Ling Xiao reprimanded her sharply.

"Have you seriously honed your combat techniques over these years?

Have you settled your heart to study your soul skills?

Have you tempered your state of mind or experienced the trials and tribulations of life and death?"

He thought of the Qian Renxue from his past life—

even though she had already become a god, she was completely crushed by a Tang San who was still only at the Title Douluo realm.
