Robbing Flender, Earning Fifty Cents

Under normal circumstances, Yin Chuan would not have been confident he could hit Flender.

But the Howling Celestial Dog was biting Flender's leg!

The greatest negative effect of the Howling Celestial Dog's bite was slowing its target and reducing the bitten target's speed.

Flender's cultivation was as high as level 78,

but could he fly while dragging the Howling Celestial Dog along?

Yin Chuan could turn him into a hornet's nest!

"Fire, all of you!"

Yin Chuan also gave the Blue Silver Spearmen an order.

All twelve Blue Silver Spearmen raised their Blue Silver Tyrant Spears and assumed throwing stances.

With so many Blue Silver Tyrant Spears flying at him,

they should be able to turn Flender into a hornet's nest.

"Wait, wait, little brother, let's talk this out!"

Flender had never been the stubborn sort. No merchant was dishonest, and he was the craftiest among the crafty. In this situation, he immediately surrendered and begged for mercy.

Thirteen Soul Emperors, along with a strange thousand-year soul beast hunting dog—he had really fallen hard this time!

[Side Quest: Teach Flender a Lesson, completed]

[Reward obtained: Howling Celestial Dog's cultivation increased by 3,000 years. Battle pet skill obtained: Heavy as a Thousand Jun]

[Heavy as a Thousand Jun: After the Howling Celestial Dog bites a target, it can increase its own weight by 1,000 times and its bite force by 10 times, becoming a super Heavy-Load Dog]

Heavy-Load?

Yin Chuan's eyes lit up.

The original Howling Celestial Dog was a slender hunting hound, incomparably fast, but it lacked the ability to subdue enemies.

Heavy as a Thousand Jun could instantly turn the Howling Celestial Dog into a Heavy-Load Dog, making it feel as though the bitten person had a massive weight hanging from their leg, unable to take a single step.

Not a bad skill.

"Howling Celestial."

With a thought, Yin Chuan ordered the Howling Celestial Dog to activate Heavy as a Thousand Jun.

Boom!

The Howling Celestial Dog's weight increased a thousandfold. The ground beneath where it had been lying instantly caved in, as though it were a steel coil wrapped in dog skin.

"Ah! The dog is still biting me!"

"Make it let go! Let go!"

Flender cried out again. He had never expected that one day, he too would be bitten by a dog.

Being a crooked merchant was truly risky!

He would never cheat anyone again!

"Now you know how to talk things out?"

Yin Chuan clicked his tongue twice and walked over to Flender.

The Blue Silver Spearmen had already restrained Flender. Twelve Blue Silver Tyrant Spears were aimed at the vital points all over his body.

His leg was still in the Howling Celestial Dog's jaws.

Flender could not move at all.

"I know, I know."

Flender forced a bitter smile.

If he had known this deal would blow up,

he would have sold that lousy crystal for a hundred Gold Soul Coins!

"Will you dare cheat people again?"

Seeing Yin Chuan subdue Flender, Xiao Wu stepped forward as well, throwing her weight around.

"I won't, I won't."

Flender repeatedly begged for mercy.

Swish!

Yin Chuan moved the Blue Silver Tyrant Spear. Its tip sliced through Flender's belt and hooked over his storage Soul Tool.

"Xiao Wu, search it. Don't be greedy."

Yin Chuan tossed Flender's storage Soul Tool to Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu's rabbit ears immediately perked up.

This was the storage Soul Tool of a powerful Soul Sage!

Although Yin Chuan had told her not to be greedy,

it should be fine to take a little as payment for her hard work.

Excited, Xiao Wu hurriedly began rummaging through it. Amid Flender's bleeding heart, she dug out a pile of junk.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is pathetic..."

"No wonder you became a crooked merchant. You were driven mad by poverty."

After a thorough search, Xiao Wu disdainfully tossed the storage Soul Tool onto Flender's face.

He was too poor!

He was not even as well-off as Tang San and her. Yin Chuan supported Tang San and her, and both of them had quite substantial private stashes.

Yet Flender, a dignified level 78 Soul Sage, was so poor it was pitiful. Xiao Wu felt as though merely searching his storage Soul Tool had covered her in the stench of poverty.

"You!"

Flender wanted to struggle, but the Blue Silver Tyrant Spear pressed against his neck stabbed painfully into him. He was so furious his liver hurt.

That little brat was not just killing him—he was humiliating him too!

Even the village children from the southern village bullied him for being old and weak!

"Sigh, I was truly foolish."

Yin Chuan shook his head. Flender could not even afford to keep Shrek Academy running, yet he had actually wanted to squeeze some profit out of him?

"Forget it. Get lost."

Yin Chuan ordered the Blue Silver Spearmen and the Howling Celestial Dog to release Flender.

"..."

Flender immediately felt insulted.

The other side had apparently intended to make things difficult for him.

But because he was too poor and there was nothing to gain, they could not even be bothered with him...

Flender had never expected that poverty could have its advantages too, allowing him to escape disaster.

He would rather be rich enough to get robbed!

Flender hurriedly spread his wings and flew into the sky. Only then did his mind settle somewhat.

"My name is Flender, the Flying Horn of the Golden Iron Triangle, Four-Eyed Owl Flender."

"Do you dare tell me your name?"

Flender's expression was somewhat unnatural.

This was undoubtedly the biggest defeat of his entire soul master career.

There was something strange about this kid!

"My name remains unchanged standing or sitting: Tang Wulin."

"Why aren't you getting lost yet?!"

Yin Chuan loudly gave a fake name.

"Tang Wulin?"

"Good boy, I'll remember you."

Flender sneered a few times before quickly flying away.

A wise man did not fight when the odds were against him. Once he returned and brought Zhao Wuji and the others over to even out the difference in numbers,

he wanted to see whether this Tang Wulin could still act so arrogantly!

"Uncle..."

Tang San watched Flender's departing figure, looking worried.

Were they really letting a level 78 powerful enemy go just like that?

Would that not be like letting a tiger return to the mountains?!

If he brought people back to retaliate against them, things would become troublesome.

"It's fine. We'll see each other again soon."

"Come on, I'll take you to register at the academy."

Yin Chuan also stared in the direction Flender had left, then chased after him with Tang San and Xiao Wu.

He was extremely fast.

He left Tang San and Xiao Wu far behind.

"Xiao Wu, are we really going to register at an academy?"

Why did Tang San feel like they were hunting Flender down?

"Heh heh, my name remains unchanged standing or sitting: Tang Wulin."

"I never expected Uncle to be someone so adaptable."

Xiao Wu was more focused on the fake name Yin Chuan had just given.

That icy fellow was full of bad ideas!

"Tang Wulin?"

Prompted by Xiao Wu, Tang San finally caught on, and his eyes lit up.

"What a fine Tang Wulin!"

"Tang is from my name, Wu is from Xiao Wu's name, and Lin should be the lin from qilin."

"Uncle instantly created a fake name from Xiao Wu's and my names. He truly remained calm in danger and thought with remarkable speed."

Tang San sighed with admiration.

He rather liked the name Tang Wulin.

He had decided!

If he had a son in the future, he would name him Tang Wulin. Not only did it sound nice, but it was also a fake name Uncle had once used, giving it special meaning!

"Tang San, you really are such a suck-up."

Xiao Wu rolled her eyes speechlessly and gave him a thumbs-down.

She looked down on Tang San for being a flattering little sycophant.

"Xiao Wu, respecting one's elders is not sucking up."

"Do you think everyone is like you, without manners or filial piety?"

Tang San frowned in displeasure.

"What?!"

"You said I have no manners and no filial piety?!"

Xiao Wu immediately shrieked. But considering that they were still traveling, she only glared viciously at Tang San and did not start anything.

Meanwhile,

Yin Chuan, who was running ahead of them, had already reached Shrek Academy.

"Damn it!"

"Are you trying to kill me off completely?"

"This is my home! I'm warning you, don't do anything reckless!"

The moment Flender landed and saw Yin Chuan, his body trembled in fright.
