Su Yuntao Comes Knocking

Lin Bei had no idea that the wings of this otherworldly butterfly—himself—had already nudged the course of the story slightly off track.

After making his decision, he kept waiting for midnight to arrive.

At midnight, zero hour, Simulation Points refreshed!

Lin Bei immediately began the simulation—

Selected Simulation Timeline: Douluo Continent · Parallel Timeline

Spent one Simulation Point. Beginning spacetime traversal simulation...

In the year 2022 on Earth, you were a young man who became unemployed the moment you graduated. While crossing the road one day, you accidentally fell into a sewer. There happened to be a spacetime tunnel inside the sewer, and through it, you crossed over to Douluo Continent...

Good grief, another way to transmigrate.

Last time it was a phone leaking electricity, and this time they went straight for an entire spacetime tunnel...

But this time, it wouldn't be like transmigrating through a toilet and dying from the fall right at the start, would it?

A bad feeling rose in Lin Bei's heart.

At 23, you fell out of the spacetime tunnel. Fortunately, the height was not great, and you only broke your left leg.

Thank goodness. This time, he had not fallen to his death the moment he transmigrated.

Still, breaking a leg and all that—wasn't this opening way too miserable?

As Lin Bei complained inwardly, he kept reading.

You transmigrated to an unknown wilderness somewhere on Douluo Continent, with not a single living person in sight.

Because your left leg was broken, you struggled to survive in the wilderness.

You were attacked by a wild beast and were injured.

You drove the wild beast away with stones and wooden sticks, and filled your stomach with things like grass roots, snails, and earthworms.

Damn, wasn't this way too miserable?

He was even eating snails and earthworms now.

In Bear Grylls's eyes, these things could be eaten once you removed the head, but Lin Bei was not Bear Grylls.

He almost could not bear to keep watching.

But the small text was still refreshing.

You struggled to survive in the wilderness. When you were hungry, you ate grass roots, snails, and earthworms; when you were thirsty, you drank dew and rainwater. The harsh environment forged in you a willpower far beyond that of ordinary people.

At 24, you were fortunate enough to encounter a soul master named Arhan, who was out training.

You begged him to save you.

Seeing that your experiences were extraordinary, Arhan rescued you and brought you back to the world of humans.

Relying on your distinctive cooking skills, you became soul master Arhan's servant.

One day, you asked Arhan to awaken your martial soul for you. Although Arhan found it strange that you were already twenty-four and had still not awakened your martial soul, he still helped you awaken it.

You awakened Beast Soul · Snail, with no soul power.

You felt despair and believed fate was unfair, but fortunately, your tenacious willpower quickly helped you pull yourself together.

You settled down as a servant under Arhan.

At 25, Arhan was killed by his enemies. You were implicated and were killed as well.

This simulation has ended. You may choose one of the following rewards.

One: Broken left leg

Two: A good appetite

Three: Powerful willpower

Lin Bei: "..."

How did a broken left leg count as a reward?!

Only someone with a short-circuited brain would choose that kind of "reward"!

"I choose three..."

Willpower was one of the most miraculous things in the human body.

It could let you see the first light of dawn in darkness; it could let you glimpse the glow of hope in the abyss of despair; it could let you fight your way to survival in a hopeless situation...

The next day, Su Yuntao and Grandmaster Mashuno headed to Holy Soul Village bright and early.

When Old Jack saw Su Yuntao and Mashuno, he was completely dumbfounded.

"Lord soul masters, why have you come?"

"Where is the child with Innate Full Soul Power from yesterday? We want to meet him."

Su Yuntao and Mashuno had naturally come to see Tang San.

"Uh, is there some problem with the child?" Old Jack did not immediately say where Tang San lived, but asked first.

Mashuno clasped his hands behind his back and smiled. "Nothing's wrong. It's just that our Spirit Hall, considering his exceptional talent, would like to ask whether he wants to join Spirit Hall."

Join Spirit Hall?

Old Jack's heart leapt with joy.

As the most powerful organization on the continent, it would naturally be wonderful if Xiao San could join Spirit Hall.

Thinking of this, Old Jack said happily, "My two lord soul masters, please follow me."

As he led Su Yuntao and Mashuno toward Tang San's home, he also introduced some of Tang San's basic situation.

The main thing was the drunken Tang Hao. Old Jack had to mention him, to give Su Yuntao and Mashuno some warning in advance.

He had a feeling that with Tang Hao's rotten temper, there would probably be a clash with Su Yuntao and the others later.

"Xiao San, Xiao San, are you home?"

Arriving at the door of Tang Hao's house, Old Jack called inside.

"Grandpa Jack, I'm here. Please come in."

Tang San's voice came from inside the house.

Su Yuntao and Mashuno exchanged a glance. Mashuno asked in a low voice, "This is the child's home?"

Su Yuntao sounded somewhat uncertain as he nodded. "It should be."

They followed Old Jack into the house.

Inside, Tang San, who was making breakfast, saw Su Yuntao and Mashuno, and his expression froze. "Uncle Su Yuntao? Why are you here?"

"This is Master Mashuno of our Spirit Hall branch."

Su Yuntao first introduced Mashuno beside him to Tang San.

Tang San greeted him politely. "Hello, Master Mashuno."

"Just call me Grandpa Mashuno."

Mashuno smiled gently. "I'm hardly worthy of being called any master."

"Xiao San, why is it so noisy outside?"

At that moment, Tang Hao's voice came from the inner room. Then he walked out with a head of disheveled hair, saw Mashuno and the others, frowned, and asked in a very unfriendly tone, "What are they here for?"

Tang San looked at Tang Hao. "Dad."

Then he looked at Mashuno and Su Yuntao again. He did not know what these two had come for either.

Mashuno looked at Tang Hao with a smile and said, "Hello. We are soul masters from Spirit Hall. We've come today to find Tang San and invite him to join our Spirit Hall."

"Join Spirit Hall?"

Tang Hao's brows furrowed, and he waved them off outright. "Leave. I won't let him join Spirit Hall!"

"Dad?"

Tang San looked at Tang Hao in surprise, not knowing why his reaction was so strong.

Mashuno and Su Yuntao were also somewhat surprised.

Both men frowned at the same time.

Su Yuntao stepped forward and said, "Why won't you let this child join Spirit Hall?"

Tang Hao said impatiently, "There is no reason. Hurry up and leave!"

"Tang Hao!" Old Jack shouted.

Watching from the side, his heart was pounding with fear.

This Tang Hao got drunk and caused trouble without even looking at the occasion.

What kind of occasion was this?

The ones speaking to you were two lord soul masters. What status did you have to talk like that? It wouldn't matter if you got beaten, but what if Xiao San got dragged into it?

"You bastard!"

Su Yuntao was indeed somewhat displeased as he looked at Tang Hao.

Tang Hao, however, only lowered his head and drank, not putting the two soul masters from Spirit Hall in his eyes at all.

Just as Su Yuntao could no longer hold back and was about to make a move, Mashuno reached out and stopped him.

Mashuno gave Tang San a regretful look and sighed. "It seems Tang San has no fate with our Spirit Hall. Sigh, sorry to disturb you. Let's go, Yuntao."

"Master, you..."

Su Yuntao looked at Mashuno in confusion.

"Let's go."

Mashuno left Tang Hao's house without even looking back.

Helpless, Su Yuntao could only glare fiercely at Tang Hao, then follow Mashuno out.
