The Rat Panted Like a Bull—Who Stole My Ah Yin?

"Eh? This External Soul Bone was actually at the elbow?!"

After stepping forward for a closer look, Ye Guyi frowned slightly.

"External Soul Bones almost always grow on the back, tail, or claws. This is the first time I've seen one growing from an elbow."

At her words, Xiao Wu immediately darted over from the ground.

She saw the bone at the Titan Giant Ape's right elbow, shrouded in black radiance.

Xiao Wu's eyes widened in shock.

"An External Soul Bone? What is that? How have I never heard of it?!"

Ye Guyi explained slowly.

Besides the six major Internal Soul Bones, there was another special kind of External Soul Bone.

As the name implied, it was a Soul Bone outside the body, attached to one's exterior.

Its greatest difference was that it did not occupy a main bone slot and could grow.

Once an Internal Soul Bone was absorbed, its effects became fixed and would barely improve afterward.

An External Soul Bone, however, would grow alongside its Soul Master. The longer it grew with its owner, the stronger it became.

The Titan Giant Ape itself was a top-tier soul beast. Its External Soul Bone had to be among the finest of the finest.

Even though it was only six thousand years old now, its potential value far exceeded that of a top-grade hundred-thousand-year Internal Soul Bone!

"Ah!"

Xiao Wu found it unbelievable.

As a soul beast herself, she had never even known such a bone existed!

Naturally, Ye Han knew about all this.

But why did this External Soul Bone have to be at the elbow?!

Could it be like Kobe Mamba, crazily elbowing people?

Elbow someone once, then shout "man"???

Mess with Mamba, and he'd elbow you without negotiation???

Good heavens, that image... just imagining it was electrifying enough!

Still, it somehow made sense. The Titan Giant Ape was a big black ape, and Kobe was a little black ape. Ahem...

"Xiaohan."

Ye Guyi turned her gaze toward him and gently reminded him.

"Since it dropped from the Titan Giant Ape, absorb it together with the Soul Ring. Perhaps it will have some unexpected effects."

"I'll guard you. Absorb it without worry."

"Mm-hmm! Thank you, Sister Guyi~"

Ye Han nodded without hesitation.

He knew what mattered, no matter how bizarre the location of this External Soul Bone was!

It did not take up a main Soul Bone slot and could grow with him. Only an idiot would refuse it!

Once he finished absorbing it, his soul power would definitely reach level twenty. Then he could get another Codex Roulette draw!

With that thought, Ye Han immediately sat down cross-legged.

He grabbed the 6,913-year Titan Giant Ape's Soul Ring and External elbow bone!

And absorbed them at once!!!

Meanwhile.

Notting Academy, infirmary.

"Sigh, how should I comfort Tang San when he wakes up later?"

Yu Xiaogang looked at the unconscious Tang San, thinking that he had to maintain their relationship.

The Martial Soul Theory he had painstakingly researched needed Tang San to put it into practice.

He would prove to the world that his Martial Soul Theory was not wrong and slap the faces of everyone who looked down on him!

He would become famous across the continent!!!

However, at that very moment.

"Mmph..."

Tang San slowly woke from his sleep.

"Xiao San! You're awake!"

Yu Xiaogang excitedly pounced toward him.

In that instant, the movement pulled at Tang San's wound.

"AAAAAH! MY DICK!!!"

Tang San screamed as he clutched at himself.

But when he discovered it was gone, the memories from before came flooding back.

"It's gone! It's really gone!!!"

He abruptly looked toward the table beside him, where the severed piece was soaking in medicine...

"Xiao San..."

Yu Xiaogang froze, about to comfort him.

"Yu Xiaogang!!"

Tang San glared fiercely at him, his eyes bloodshot as he panted like a bull.

Everything was his teacher's fault. If not for him...

It was already too late to say anything now!

Yu Xiaogang, you have invited your own death!!!

"Hiss!!"

Feeling the killing intent, Yu Xiaogang's heart lurched.

But he quickly remembered Tang Hao's earlier words and immediately spoke with confidence.

"Xiao San, don't worry. Your teacher has a way to make it grow back!"

Tang San's killing intent froze. He grabbed Yu Xiaogang by the collar excitedly.

"Teacher! Can you really make it grow back?!"

Yu Xiaogang forced himself to remain calm, assuming a profound expression once more.

"Your teacher has always had your best interests at heart. Why would I deceive you?!"

"Don't forget who turned your useless Martial Soul into a useful one!"

"As the saying goes, 'When you drink from a well, don't forget who dug it.' Xiao San, don't be ungrateful!"

Tang San did not believe him at first.

But after hearing that lecture, he was instantly filled with guilt.

That was right! His teacher had led him onto the path of cultivation. How could he doubt his teacher?!

"I'm sorry, Teacher. Your disciple was impulsive just now. I believe you!"

Yu Xiaogang sighed in relief and was about to nod in satisfaction.

"Wait... where's Xiao Wu?!"

Tang San suddenly remembered something and immediately panicked again.

"Teacher! How is Xiao Wu? And where did that beast that hurt me go?!"

Yu Xiaogang panicked again and hurriedly continued pretending to be profound.

"Hmph. After you fell unconscious, your teacher flew into a rage and seriously injured him, forcing him to flee!"

Tang San remembered that his teacher was a two-ring Great Soul Master and immediately believed him.

That beast did not even have a Soul Ring. How could it possibly be his teacher's match?!

"Then Xiao Wu... was she taken away by that beast? No, I have to go find Xiao Wu!"

Tang San anxiously tried to get up.

"Tang San!"

Yu Xiaogang's sharp rebuke cut him off.

"You have a very bad flaw!!"

Tang San froze.

"What is it? Please tell me. I'll definitely change!"

Yu Xiaogang's face turned solemn.

"You take your emotions too seriously!"

Tang San seemed to understand what his teacher meant.

"But... Xiao Wu acknowledged me as her brother!"

"What if she ignores me in the future because I didn't go look for her?!"

Yu Xiaogang snorted coldly.

"Xiao San, remember this: women must be treated differently from men. Women are inherently cheap creatures!"

"The better and more proactive you are toward a woman, the more she takes it for granted! On the contrary, the worse and colder you treat her, the more devoted she becomes!"

"Simply put, women are beaten into obedience, not pampered into it. The more you beat them, the clingier they become! You have to let them know who's king!"

"So don't take the initiative to look for her. If she truly cares about you, she'll naturally come back and find you, begging not to be separated from you!"

As he spoke, Yu Xiaogang could not help recalling the past.

Back then, he had relied on this very method to make Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong completely devoted to him!

"W-what?!"

Tang San stood rooted to the spot, and then his gaze gradually turned cold.

He had lived two lives, yet he had never received any education about relations between men and women.

So this was how women were supposed to be treated!

No wonder the nicer he had been to Xiao Wu, the more she bullied him!

Not only had she stolen his blanket, she always made him carry her on his back!

Yet Xiao Wu did not do that to anyone else!

He had been too good to her. She no longer knew who was king!

"Teacher, your disciple understands!!"

Tang San believed that if Xiao Wu missed him, she would definitely return obediently.

As for the beast that had hurt him, and the woman beside it, they should all just wait. Every last one of them had invited their own deaths!

"Mm, very good. You can be taught!"

Yu Xiaogang patted his shoulder in satisfaction.

"Rest well for now. Before long, it will grow back, and you'll restore your masculine vigor!"

As he spoke, he smugly looked out the window in the direction Tang Hao had left.

He only had to wait for Tang Hao to return. Judging from how certain he had sounded, it could not be false!

At the same time.

Sacred Soul Village, nearby mountains.

"Xiao San, it'll grow back soon!!"

Tang Hao rushed back at top speed, leaping through the waterfall.

"Ah Yin, it's been so long since I came to see you. Have you been well?"

But when Tang Hao entered the stone chamber and found it completely empty, he was stunned where he stood!

"No!!!"

"Ah Yin! My Ah Yin!!"

"Who did this?! Who stole my Ah Yin!!!"

Tang Hao's eyes turned blood-red. Panting like a bull, he completely descended into madness and threw back his head in a howling roar!
