Tang San Trembles Beneath the Bed, Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan Show Concern for Meng Chen
Tang San began to tremble.
His whole body was trembling like a leaf, much like the stress response after being chilled to the bone.
He tried to clench his teeth to control himself, but his upper and lower teeth clashed wildly when they met, making a clanging sound, and he couldn't control himself no matter what he did.
Tang San curled up his legs, hugging his knees to his chest, burying his face between his knees, and hugging himself tightly.
Those images kept replaying in his mind.
The six black and three red Soul Ring exuded an overwhelming sense of oppression, and the stunningly beautiful woman emanated a breathtaking aura of power.
The father's tall figure, yet appearing small in comparison to that woman, and that hoarse yet resolute cry, "Go!"
Then came a series of terrifying, enormous sounds and explosions. The shockwaves even threw him, who had already run far away, into the air, rolling on the muddy ground and swallowing mouthfuls of dust.
Later, as things calmed down, Tang San learned that his father was likely in grave danger.
But what's the use of knowing? Am I really going to fight that woman to the death?
The thought of Ye Xishui's Soul Ring configuration, which was completely inconsistent with Yu Xiaogang's Martial Soul Theory, filled Tang San with a deep sense of powerlessness.
My God, how did that woman do that?
Considering that Meng Chen's Soul Ring configuration was completely inconsistent with Yu Xiaogang's Martial Soul Theory, Tang San couldn't help but suspect that Meng Chen was able to do so because he had received instruction from Ye Xishui.
If I could become Ye Xishui's student, would I also be able to absorb Soul Ring that exceed the limits of common sense?
No! I cannot betray my teacher.
Tang San bit his lip hard, tears streaming down his face.
He absolutely cannot betray Yu Xiaogang; he should steal Ye Xishui's secret technique of Overlimit Absorption, just as he stole the Tang Sect's secret manual.
Yes, that's how it should be!
What's shameful about stealing the enemy's secret techniques? The Tang Sect raised him, and didn't he steal their secret Tang Sect in return?
Thinking of this, the fear that had almost engulfed Tang San finally subsided.
Tang San vigorously wiped his tear-stained cheeks clean, looking at the cold tear stains on his hands.
"Father... I won't let you die in vain. One day... I will..."
Tang San originally wanted to kill Ye Xishui, but he was afraid when he thought of Ye Xishui's terrifying aura and the ratio of her Soul Ring.
"I want Meng Chen dead!"
Tang San changed the object of his hatred, and was finally able to speak with great passion and high spirits.
That's right, Meng Chen must die.
He actually had two purple Soul Ring Soul Ring, which clearly meant that his secret technique was not yet fully mastered, and he was picking on the weak.
After making a vow in his heart to avenge Tang Hao in the future, Tang San could finally rest easy.
As soon as he relaxed, the drowsiness caused by overexerting his Soul Power and physical strength surged up, and Tang San couldn't resist it, falling into a deep sleep.
The next morning, when the Imperial Fighting Team got up for breakfast, everyone carefully examined Meng Chen as he arrived, seemingly to confirm that he was not injured.
"Meng Chen, where did you go last night? I haven't seen you at all," Yu Feng said, sitting down next to Meng Chen with a bowl in his hand, his face still showing lingering fear.
"I didn't sleep well last night. The commotion outside was terrifying. I wonder if there were Titled Douluo fighting. Fortunately, it didn't affect us."
Meng Chen sat down on the chair next to him, casually picked up a steamed bun from the table, and took a bite. "I noticed it too, the commotion was indeed quite loud."
Seeing that Meng Chen had also arrived, Qin Ming solemnly announced, "We can't stay in Suotuo City. We don't know what dangers this city still holds, and we have no opponents left here. There's no point in training any further. I've decided to set off back to the academy today. We'll leave after breakfast."
After hearing this, everyone sped up their eating.
Apart from Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.
Ye Lingling walked directly up to Meng Chen, gave Yu Feng a wink, and told him to get lost.
Yu Feng obediently moved his buttocks away.
To survive in this group, Ye Lingling is one of the two major evil forces you can't afford to offend.
Although she is aloof by nature and only a Support Soul Master, if she gets injured in battle, she deliberately leaves some residual injuries untreated during her healing process...
Even if it doesn't affect combat effectiveness, it will still be painful for a long time.
So Yu Feng decisively moved aside and went to sit down on Meng Chen's other side, only to find Dugu Yan sitting there.
Damn, what's wrong with Sister Yan? Brother Tianheng, you're in danger again!
Yu Feng decisively sat down next to Yu Tianheng, because Dugu Yan was one of the two major forces that could not be offended.
After all, Dugu Yan always used poison to assist them; what if she added something else...?
Yu Tianheng didn't show it on his face, but he was secretly watching the movements of Dugu Yan and Meng Chen.
After sitting down next to Meng Chen, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling asked at the same time, "Meng Chen, I have a question for you."
If you're going to ask a question, just ask one; why are you getting so close to me?
Your combined fragrance has wafted over and permeated the steamed bun in my hand. Eating this bun now feels just like eating yours.
Meng Chen took a big bite of the bun in his hand and mumbled, "What is it?"
These steamed buns are so white and big!
"The commotion last night was so frightening, was it your teacher...?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Tianheng realized they were inquiring about what happened last night, and he immediately felt relieved.
"No."
Meng Chen spoke these words calmly and frankly, without any hesitation or evasion.
Dugu Yan stared intently into Meng Chen's eyes and, finding that he didn't seem to be lying, nodded as if she had just realized something.
As for Ye Lingling, she has already decided to devote herself entirely to Meng Chen, and she will believe whatever Meng Chen says.
"That's good," Dugu Yan patted her chest. "Ling Ling and I didn't sleep a wink last night because you weren't here, we were so worried something might have happened to you..."
"Hey, what could possibly be wrong with me?"
Meng Chen spoke in a seemingly generous manner.
Given Ye Xishui's sensitive identity, it's best to avoid getting involved in these troublesome matters.
After breakfast, everyone boarded the carriage and began their journey home.
That same afternoon, Tang San woke up from his deep sleep.
He felt empty inside, so he opened the door to find something to eat.
But as soon as he stepped outside, he heard the commotion.
Tang San followed the sound and found a group of people arguing in what used to be the principal's office.
Among them were Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing!
Upon seeing Ning Rongrong, Tang San almost wanted to rush up and kill her.
If it weren't for her, my dad wouldn't have died!
However, the situation was not right, because the argument split into two sides, with Yu Xiaogang leading one side.
Yu Xiaogang seemed more dejected than ever before, his face flushed with anger.
Ma Hongjun's eyes were red, as if he had been crying.
Oscar was in the best condition; at least he looked clean and tidy, probably having tidied himself up, and seemed to be trying to win Ning Rongrong's favor.
Dai Mubai... no, Dai Muyue isn't here; he should still be recuperating in his room.
Having suffered such a huge blow, he kept considering whether he should become a shopping bag at the market or an armed light cavalryman.
The other party in the argument was Zhao Wuji, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing. This was also why Tang San didn't dare to rush in; what if Zhao Wuji listened to Ning Rongrong and tore him apart?
What exactly is going on in this scene?
Tang San quickly hid himself and eavesdropped on the sounds inside.
