"Uncle!"

Tang San had been extremely nervous.

He had overlooked a crucial issue—quite a few people had seen him ask for leave!

There was no way to hide this.

Was it about to be exposed?

The one who did it should bear the consequences. He, Tang San, had been the one to frame Yu Xiaogang; as long as Uncle was not implicated, that was enough.

But when Yin Chuan said that he had been the one to tell Tang San to take leave and brew medicine, an unprecedented sense of security filled Tang San's heart.

His unsettled heart immediately calmed down!

Uncle is awesome!

With Uncle here, what was there to fear?!

"Hmph."

Yu Xiaogang's expression darkened. He entered Yin Chuan's little courtyard and indeed found traces of medicinal ingredients having been simmered for a long time.

Could it really... not have been Tang San?

Then who had set him up?

Yu Xiaogang was dumbfounded. Other than this uncle-nephew pair, he did not seem to have any enemies at Nuoding Academy.

"Take care. I won't see you out."

Yin Chuan's tone was far from polite, but Yu Xiaogang had nothing to say. Without any evidence,

he could only come aggressively,

then leave in disgrace, clutching his backside.

Bang!

The door shut.

The uncle and nephew looked at each other. Yin Chuan turned his scrutinizing gaze on Tang San.

"Uncle!"

Tang San wanted to say something.

"No need to explain. Uncle knows you wanted to stand up for me."

"Just be more careful next time."

Though Yin Chuan looked stern, his tone was caring.

Good job, Little San.

Well done. You really got Gangzi good. If the sky falls, Uncle will hold it up!

It was immensely satisfying.

"I'm going to change the water."

Yin Chuan carried the bucket off to fetch more water.

The water Tang San was soaking in was nearly boiled through and needed to be replaced with fresh cold water.

"Uncle..."

Watching his uncle's retreating back, Tang San's nose stung.

His uncle had helped awaken his Blue Silver Tyrant Spear, given him a better new body, and even provided precious medicines to temper his body.

This feeling...

was something he had never experienced in either this life or his previous one.

The attachment in Tang San's heart could not be dissolved. This was what home felt like. As long as Uncle was there, he had a shelter from the storm...

"What's happening?"

"So hot!"

Another wave of heat swept through Tang San's mind, changing his expression. This burning sensation was strange.

Recalling what Uncle had just said about how to use Whale Rubber, Tang San suddenly had a bad feeling.

He lowered his head and glanced at his naked self in the bucket.

Tang San's face immediately turned red.

"Hey, Yin Chuan, what are you doing?"

Xiao Wu watched Yin Chuan drawing water and asked curiously.

She was not simply overly familiar with strangers.

They had known each other from the start.

Even Xiao Wu's transformation had, to a large extent, been influenced by Yin Chuan.

"Go back to the dormitory."

Yin Chuan glared, putting on the air of a teacher.

"Tch, listen to you putting on airs."

"Yes, Teacher Yin Chuan."

Xiao Wu rolled her eyes, but obediently went back anyway.

There was no helping it.

Yin Chuan was a teacher, and she was a student. Status could crush a person.

They were both Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, yet she had somehow fallen a generation below him and become Yin Chuan's student. Xiao Wu was depressed.

"And go buy yourself a quilt."

"You old perverted rabbit, my nephew is only six. What, are you trying to rob the cradle?"

"Aren't you ashamed?"

A golden streak shot from Yin Chuan's hand and struck Xiao Wu right on the cheek.

Smack!

A bright red mark immediately appeared on Xiao Wu's face.

"You!"

Xiao Wu flew into a rage, but when she realized that golden streak was a Gold Soul Coin, she was overjoyed.

"I'll buy a quilt, then. Why are you being so fierce?"

Xiao Wu stuck out her tongue and made a face at Yin Chuan's back.

She was thick-skinned,

but having her shamelessly freeloading off Tang San's quilt exposed by his uncle still made her a little embarrassed.

After chasing away the annoying rabbit,

Yin Chuan refilled Tang San's water.

He stayed until Tang San had fully absorbed the effects of the Whale Rubber.

Tang San had the Mysterious Heaven Skill, so his efficiency in refining the Whale Rubber was quite high. Yin Chuan did not have to wait too long.

"Uncle, about my spirit ring..."

Tang San asked Yin Chuan with some uncertainty.

Yellow turning purple

was naturally a good thing, but Douluo Continent did not seem to have purple first spirit rings.

"That's exactly what I was going to tell you."

"Little San, you possess half Soul Beast bloodline, so you are naturally different from ordinary people."

"This spirit ring is the natal spirit ring you condensed for the Blue Silver Tyrant Spear. It can continuously improve along with your strength."

"But the tallest tree in the forest is the first to be toppled by the wind."

"A purple first ring is not necessarily a good thing either. Uncle happens to have a skill that hides a spirit ring's color. Watch carefully and learn well."

As Yin Chuan spoke, he canceled the concealment effect of Di Tian's Reverse Scale.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple.

The colors of his four spirit rings immediately changed,

becoming purple, purple, purple, black, revealing their original colors.

"Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Rings?!"

Tang San cried out in shock, then quickly covered his mouth.

Whoosh!

Yin Chuan's spirit ring colors changed once more.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple!

This time, it was the Spirit Ring Disguise Technique.

"Focus your mind and sense it carefully with your spiritual power."

Yin Chuan held Tang San in place and taught him how to use the Spirit Ring Disguise Technique.

Tang San's comprehension was excellent, so Yin Chuan did not need to worry much.

Purple—yellow!

Tang San learned it at once. His eye-catching purple spirit ring reverted to yellow.

Yin Chuan was completely relieved.

The days at Nuoding Academy quietly passed.

In the blink of an eye,

two and a half years had gone by.

[Good Uncle System, Character Panel Name: Yin Chuan Race: Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver King Transformation (Child of Nature) Age: Fourteen and a half Martial Souls: Blue Silver Tyrant Spear, Thunder Tribulation Heavenly Eye Cultivation: Level 58 Soul Skills: Blue Silver Peak Strength, All Vegetation as Soldiers, Donning Armor and Wielding Weapons, Blue Silver Tyrant Fury, Blue Silver Array-Breaking Kill Domain: Domination Domain Faction: Soul Beasts (Gu Yuena's direct subordinate) Item: Di Tian's Reverse Scale (can conceal Soul Beast aura)] [Main Quest: Help Tang San obtain his second spirit ring. Completed.] [Quest Reward: Blue Silver Thirteen Spears, Overlord Disarming Armor] [Main Quest has been reorganized... Help Tang San pass the Golden Dragon King's Second Seal. Reward: Ultimate Strength attribute]

"Uncle!"

"My second soul skill is also All Vegetation as Soldiers, but I can only summon eight spear soldiers, and their soul power is seven levels lower than mine."

Tang San took a deep breath and rose from the ground.

Purple, purple!

Two spirit rings appeared beneath his feet, then changed into two yellow hundred-year spirit rings.

Today, Tang San had broken through to Level 20.

Yin Chuan had once again taken him to hunt and absorb a fifteen-hundred-year Blue Silver Grass, allowing him to absorb its spirit ring and adjust his soul skill.

It was the same soul skill as Yin Chuan's, All Vegetation as Soldiers,

but it fell short in both quantity and quality.

"A small problem. You can raise the spirit ring age later on."

"For your first four spirit rings, choose my soul skills. After the fifth ring, we can adjust the plan."

"Later, Uncle will teach you another spear technique called Overlord Disarming Armor!"

Yin Chuan patted Tang San on the shoulder.

Two and a half years

had made both him and Tang San much taller and more mature.

"Overlord Disarming Armor?"

Tang San's eyes lit up. What a domineering name.

I want to learn it!

Was Uncle finally going to teach him spear techniques?

Would the dull life of laying foundations finally be over?

"Mm. Let's head back."

Yin Chuan nodded, his thoughts drifting elsewhere.

The reward for the new Main Quest,

the Ultimate Strength attribute, was very appealing!

Let me think. What heavenly treasures were needed to unlock the Golden Dragon King's Second Seal?

Millennium Dragon Scale Fruit, Millennium Blue Tendon Vine, Millennium Earth Dragon Tendon, and Millennium Sea Dragon Marrow, right?
