Tang San: I Can Testify!

[bite--]

[Host detected revealing identity, triggering temporary task]

[Task Name: The Mantis Stalks the Cicada, Unaware of the Oriole Behind]

[Mission Objective: You and everyone else escape unharmed, and incidentally, make the Spirit Hall pay a price.]

[Quest Reward: Qilin Exclusive Skill - Mystic Wonder (Possesses wondrous uses such as Illusion Break and Fate Sight; has combat power)]

[Mission Description: Escaping danger alone isn't enough; we need to bring back something, right?]

"Hmm?" Ye Hua raised an eyebrow.

It seems that the method I used to make the Spirit Hall pay the price was too lenient.

It needs to be revised!

Ye Hua narrowed his eyes slightly and activated the Voice Transmitter.

Meanwhile, Ning Fengzhi has already clashed with the Pope.

"Soul Beast Transformation?"

"Your His Holiness the Pope, this is no small matter!"

"Ye Hua is Soul Beast? Then how come he has a weapon Martial Soul?"

Ning Fengzhi he laughed.

This is utterly ridiculous!

Could Ye Hua be a human form of a stick?

Dugu Bo's surging Soul Power was also forcibly stopped. He had thought of more than a dozen excuses, but he never expected that Ye Hua would be accused of being Soul Beast Transformation!

What a joke! I'm not old and blind yet!

The aura of Soul Beast is unique, and once it transforms into human form, it is difficult to conceal unless it cultivates to level 60.

During the time of the Icefire Yin Yang Well, I dealt with him every day. Am I just being confused?!

But Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and Jiangzhu, these girls who had witnessed Ye Hua rebuking the Titan Giant Ape, felt their hearts pounding wildly.

Then there's Meng Yiran. She subconsciously looked for her grandparents, and only felt a little relieved when she saw them.

"The methods by which Soul Beast disguise themselves are incredibly varied," Bibi Dong said calmly.

"Perhaps some Soul Beast can truly conceal themselves better by not using their original form as their Martial Soul after transforming into human form."

"Ye Hua, are you still going to pretend?"

Ye Hua remained silent, his eyes vacant.

Dugu Bo frowned as he looked at it!

I've tried everything to help you, but you're just standing there blankly?

Unbeknownst to him, Ye Hua was using Voice Transmitter to finalize the plan with Tie Xiong!

Bibi Dong was not in a hurry; she lightly tapped the ground with her Scepter.

Suddenly, a dazzling golden light shone in the square in the Papal Palace!

In an instant, Soul Power surged!

Golden light surged toward the three of them like a tidal wave!

Xiao Wu's pupils contracted sharply, and she instinctively tried to back away, but she was no match for the speed of light.

The Lovesick Heartbreak Red, which had been reluctant to eat, was enveloped in a pink glow.

Unfortunately, it was merely Immortal Herb; how could it possibly be a match for Bibi Dong?

Bang!

The Lovesick Heartbreak Red, was shot down.

"Ah!"

Xiao Wu let out a short gasp.

The aura of Soul Beast emanates!

This unexpected turn of events immediately choked Chen Xin's words of defense for them.

Ning Fengzhi's hand holding the cane trembled almost imperceptibly, his eyes filled with shock.

"So that's how it is. It was that flower that protected him," Dugu Bo murmured to himself.

"Old poisoner," Chrysanthemum Pass protested, "That's the divine-grade Lovesick Heartbreak Red!"

"What's with the flower name? That's so old-fashioned!"

Dugu Bo had no time to argue with him.

Oh no, Xiao Wu really is Soul Beast!

His and Ning Fengzhi's reactions say it all.

"Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?!"

"My God! It really is Soul Beast Transformation!"

"She's with Ye Hua, and Ye Hua..."

Whispers spread, filled with Greed.

Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone

That's the most coveted treasure of all Soul Master!

Bibi Dong looked at the restless crowd, but her brows furrowed instead.

The golden light of the formation also surged towards Wang Qiu'er and Ye Hua, but...

The golden light clung to them, like water droplets sliding across a lotus leaf, having absolutely no effect!

"How is that possible?" Bibi Dong's eyes narrowed slightly.

She personally arranged this formation before the competition.

Specifically designed for transformed Soul Beast, forcing them to reveal their aura!

But why did their disguises remain completely intact?

Did Yu Xiaogang lie to her again?!

"Interesting," she sneered. "It seems you're even more cunning than that Soft Bone Rabbit!"

"It's alright, you can stay here for now. We can let you go after we've confirmed that you're not Soul Beast!"

Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi looked at each other in bewilderment.

Anyone with eyes can see that anyone imprisoned, even if there's nothing wrong with them, will be accused of something!

However, Xiao Wu's identity being exposed has indeed put them at a disadvantage!

The two looked at Xiao Wu, only to find that there was no fear in her eyes, but only boundless resentment!

"It seems," Bibi Dong also noticed her gaze, "That you were the one who escaped back then."

"It's a pity, otherwise I could have obtained another Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, but it's not too late now."

"Xiao Wu," Ning Rongrong grabbed her wrist, "Are you really Soul Beast?"

Xiao Wu nodded slowly, the movement so subtle it was almost imperceptible.

"Oh my god..." Ning Rongrong covered her mouth.

But she quickly regained her composure and reached out to cup Xiao Wu's cheeks.

Xiao Wu's eyes reddened. "Rongrong, I'm sorry..."

"Sorry for what?" Ning Rongrong interrupted her.

Xiao Wu's lips moved, unsure of what to say.

For security reasons, should we conceal our identities?

We've all worked together through thick and thin, night after night, and you still don't trust us?

To avoid prejudice and hide one's identity?

Isn't that because they don't trust us, and they think we'll see them as oddballs?

"Xiao Wu, listen to me," Ning Rongrong said solemnly, "So what if you're Soul Beast?"

"Have you ever hurt me? Have you ever hurt Zhu Qing? Have you ever hurt Yi Ran?"

Xiao Wu was stunned.

"You fight tooth and nail on the field, you guide us through training, and when Ye Hua isn't around, you're the one who holds the whole team together!"

"I don't care if you're Soul Beast or a human, all I know is that you're Xiao Wu!"

"Anyone who dares to touch you will have to ask me first!"

Seeing Ning Rongrong pull out the Three-Eyed Icefire Guns, Ning Fengzhi nodded approvingly.

"Uncle Jian," he said softly, "My Rongrong has grown up."

Chen Xin nodded with satisfaction.

Ning Fengzhi didn't object, Ning Rongrong's statement signified the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's stance.

Those who knew what was good for them quickly concealed themselves to avoid being caught in the ensuing battle.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Zhuqing also walked to Xiao Wu's side.

Without saying anything more, I simply took her other hand.

Meng Yiran, Wang Qiu'er, Jiangzhu...

One by one, they all stood beside Xiao Wu.

It was just a bit comical that they were fighting over every part of Xiao Wu that they could let go of.

Looking at her friends, Xiao Wu finally let the tears that had been welling up in her eyes fall.

"You..."

"Don't cry," Ning Rongrong, wiping away her tears with a handkerchief. "We're all here for you!"

Xiao Wu bit her lip and buried her head in Ning Rongrong's arms.

At this moment, Bibi Dong's face was extremely cold.

"Is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect determined to protect them?"

Ning Fengzhi said in a deep voice, "Your His Holiness the Pope, even if Xiao Wu is Soul Beast Transformation, it does not prove that Ye Hua and Wang Qiu'er are Soul Beast!"

We'll pick as many as we can.

After ensuring the safety of Ye Hua and Wang Qiu'er, we'll try to win over Xiao Wu!

"I've already said that Ye Hua possesses a weapon-type Martial Soul!"

"Moreover, the golden light didn't reveal Ye Hua's true form!"

"But as I said," Bibi Dong said calmly, "There are many disguises among Soul Beast, so they are still suspects."

"An Elder of our Spirit Hall and his disciple can testify to this!"

Elder and disciples of the Spirit Hall?

Flender and Liu Erlong frowned.

If their memories are correct, Ye Hua has no connection with the Spirit Hall.

The Elder of the Spirit Hall are either Titled Douluo or venerable scholars, so how could they possibly know Ye Hua?

But the next second, their eyes widened!

"Xiao Gang!"

"Tang San!"

"What, it's you guys?!"

Tang San felt their shocked gazes and held his head high.

Shocked? Envy? You never expected this, did you?

"Your His Holiness the Pope," Flender immediately said, "Tang San is of questionable character, suspected of persecuting his classmate Ma Hongjun, and has also colluded with Evil Soul Master to use drugs to ambush Ye Hua, ultimately resulting in his lower body being broken."

"Your Majesty, please do not listen to his one-sided account; his testimony is most likely fabricated!"

Then he turned to Yu Xiaogang and said, "Xiao Gang, if you have even a shred of conscience, take back your slander!"

"Ask yourself honestly, have you ever seen Ye Hua in human form, or do you truly understand him?"

"Dean Flender," Tang San sneered, "When it comes to getting along with Ye Hua, I've been doing it much longer than you!"

"Moreover, I have irrefutable proof that Ye Hua is Soul Beast!"
