Did You Save a Beetle Ten Years Ago?
Azure Wind Ancient Bamboo was dumbfounded. "What did you say?"
"I said," Tang San repeated slowly, "Go kill a few Soul Spirit."
"Don't be impatient. You are my Soul Spirit now. You have to do whatever I tell you to do."
Azure Wind Ancient Bamboo coldly replied, "I do not kill my own kind."
Tang San revealed a sinister smile, "Not kill? Ha."
He raised his hand, his five fingers loosely clenched, and his fifth Soul Ring lit up.
"Since you're unwilling to be an obedient Soul Spirit, then don't even think about leaving this Soul Ring of mine."
"Fifty years, a hundred years, a thousand years... you can just stay locked up there and suffer! Sooner or later, you'll be obedient!"
"But I advise you to come to your senses sooner rather than later, otherwise, when I become a god, the first person I'll eliminate will be you!"
"After all, those who understand the times are the wise ones!"
Azure Wind Ancient Bamboo remained unmoved. "Tang San, aren't you afraid of retribution?"
"The Spirit Pagoda is guarded by Ice Dragon; be careful not to get frozen to dust!"
Upon hearing this, Tang San not only did not restrain himself, but became even more arrogant.
"Ice Dragon? Ha, as long as the commotion isn't too big, he can sense it?"
"He's nothing more than a watchdog trained by Ye Hua!"
After saying that, he didn't forget to kick the Azure Wind Ancient Bamboo.
"If you sign a contract with me, you will become my servant, Tang San. Don't even think about disobeying me!"
"I'll kill Soul Spirit today, Soul Beast tomorrow, and completely ruin the reputation of Ye Hua's lousy Soul Spirit System the day after. Is it any of your business?"
Outside the tower, Ah Yin rolled her eyes.
"I... finally see it clearly."
After saying this, her body felt as if her bones had been removed, and she collapsed backward.
Fortunately, Ye Hua was prepared and caught the person.
[bite--]
[Ah Yin's Rescue Progress +15%]
[Current Rescue Progress: 70%]
[Rescue Progress detected to be over 60%, phase reward issued: Bond Chain with Ah Yin (same effect as Hu Liena)]
[The next stage of rewards will be unlocked when the Rescue Progress reaches 90%]
Ye Hua handed Ah Yin over to the arriving Soul Douluo of the Long Night Alliance.
"Take her back to the Crystal Palace to rest, take good care of her, and let me know when she wakes up."
"Yes!" The female Soul Douluo lifted Ah Yin up and disappeared into the night.
Ye Hua withdrew his gaze, closed his eyes slightly, and said, "Close down the internet cafe."
Inside the Spirit Pagoda, Tang San was completely unaware of his predicament and let go entirely.
They ruthlessly plundered spiritual materials and slaughtered Soul Spirit.
It even seemed a little strange that no one stopped him.
The Spirit Transmitter didn't sense anything amiss?
"It seems this Spirit Pagoda is nothing special after all," Tang San sneered, stuffing the last of the herbs into his robes.
"That Ye Hua guy, he's all just putting on a show!"
He looked around to make sure nothing was missed, then waited for the Spirit Transmitter.
The Spirit Transmitter had his back to him and was completely unaware that someone was approaching from behind.
Tang San raised his hand and placed it on the man's shoulder, his tone flippant, "Hey, take me out of here."
The person remained completely still.
"Did you hear me? Don't make me beat you up!"
The man turned around.
In an instant, Tang San was married into the ice cave!
Isn't that the one who got riddled with bullets?
Tang San broke out in a cold sweat. "You... you're not dead?"
The Spirit Transmitter smiled and said, "My lord, what nonsense are you spouting?"
"I'm standing right here, how could I be dead?"
As he spoke, his Soul Power suddenly surged!
A weak and pathetic Soul Ancestor, transformed into Soul Emperor in the blink of an eye!
The six rings rise, yellow, purple, and black, arranged neatly!
Tang San was shocked. "You've been faking it all along?!"
Tang San gritted his teeth and pulled out the Godly Zhuge Crossbow again.
The Spirit Transmitter remained calm and snapped his fingers.
The world before Tang San's eyes suddenly collapsed!
When he looked again, he found himself still standing in the same spot.
That place where he stood amidst the Azure Wind Ancient Bamboo.
His arms were not stuffed with spiritual materials.
Godly Zhuge Crossbow was still full of arrows.
There was no light dust on the ground that he had scattered.
The two cloth bags were sealed intact, and the poison remained untouched.
None of it ever happened.
The massacre and looting just now were all an illusion!
"Impossible!"
"How is this possible!"
"Even if you are Soul Emperor, you can't cast an illusion on me!"
"I possess the Purple Demon Eyes; unless I'm Soul Saint, there's no way I can be affected!"
The Spirit Transmitter sneered, "Have you ever considered that I could mobilize the power of the Spirit Pagoda?"
Tang San stood there dumbfounded, his face turning deathly pale. "You're playing me?!"
The Spirit Transmitter said calmly, "Your heart is not pure; this is a test for you."
Tang San's forehead veins bulged, "Screw your test!!!"
The Clear Sky Hammer rose, its Soul Power surging forth, and smashed down towards the Spirit Transmitter's forehead!
However, with a flick of his finger, the Spirit Transmitter Tang San flying.
With another flick of his hand, he pressed down, rendering Tang San unable to move.
Tang San lay on the ground, still cursing incoherently.
He struggled to lift his head, caught a glimpse of the Azure Wind Ancient Bamboo, and his eyes lit up.
"You! Help me get out of this predicament!"
"You are my contracted Soul Spirit, you must help me!"
"We're the best of friends!"
"Is that so?" Azure Wind Ancient Bamboo waved his bamboo leaves.
A halo of light shone around him, flickering intermittently, indicating his extreme weakness.
"Tang San, have you been to Notting City?" Halo asked.
"Yes," Tang San said, puzzled.
Have you been to the Soul Hunting Forest?
"That's right."
The halo fell silent.
"Once upon a time, a beetle climbed onto a bamboo branch, wanting to suck its sap."
"But it didn't know that this bamboo was Soul Beast, and it trapped it in one fell swoop, about to refine it."
"Just then, a great hero appeared!"
"He descended like a god, swiftly cutting down the bamboo and saving the beetle!"
Tang San was overjoyed, "You're that beetle!"
"No, I am that Solitary Bamboo!"
Tang San was dumbfounded, his smile frozen in time, his face riddled with holes.
"Prepare to die!"
The Solitary Bamboo transformed into a physical form and stabbed at Tang San's crotch.
Tang San remained unfazed and began humming a little tune.
"I'll poke! I'll poke!"
"Hey? Why isn't this person making a sound?"
The Spirit Transmitter reminded her, "Little Solitary Bamboo, she's a girl now."
Solitary Bamboo suddenly realized, "No wonder."
Then, he slowly circled around to Tang San's back.
Tang San's right eyelid twitched violently. "You... what do you want to do?"
"You say it!"
Pfft!
Tang San's eyes almost popped out!
"Awooo--!!!!!"
Fresh blood dripped from the swallow's skin.
Just Feng Xiaotian.
"Help!"
"Yohohohoho!"
"No!!!"
Tears streamed down her cheeks.
Comparable to a crocodile's tears behind bars.
Azure Wind Ancient Bamboo laughed and said, "Young man, not bad, right?"
Solitary Bamboo sobbed, "Thank you so much, Great-Great...
"You—" Tang San burst into tears, "How could you manage to establish such a distant relationship?"
Azure Wind Ancient Bamboo's smile remained, "Isn't it better than you killing your mother?"
I killed my mother? Wasn't my mother killed by the Spirit Hall?
Tang San didn't turn properly, perhaps because the force behind him was too great.
He was forced to beg for mercy!
Unexpectedly, Azure Wind Ancient Bamboo was unmoved, saying, "The one who will punish you today is not me."
Tang San's entire body stiffened.
The next second, he heard footsteps.
He knew those footsteps all too well!
He knew it so well that his nightmares would replay over and over again every night!
He stiffly turned his neck and saw the last thing he wanted to see!
"Ye Hua!"
What are you doing here?!
