Roar, Roar, Roar! I Really Did Plagiarize!

"What... what do you want?"

Ye Hua raised his hand and patted Tang San's shoulder.

"Um?!"

Tang San felt a sudden pang of fear.

He felt a tightness in his chest, as if something had been injected into his habitual "Self-Abuse Domain," causing him to suddenly become restless.

Originally, it was just that it hurt every time I used my Soul Skill.

But now, it has begun to grow wildly, as if it wants to take root in his very bones!

"What did you do?!" Tang San desperately mobilized his Soul Power, trying to suppress it.

But he discovered that the area had become unusually active, frantically trying to penetrate his meridians!

"Relax," Ye Hua said, taking out a handkerchief to wipe his hands and then throwing it into the trash can. "It's just a level up."

"Upgrade... upgrade?" Tang San was dumbfounded.

"Yes," Ye Hua tilted his head, "Why don't you try using the Tang Sect Secret Techniques?"

Tang San shuddered, his first instinct being to refuse.

But driven by curiosity, he inexplicably activated the [Mysterious Jade Hand].

"Ugh--"

Tang San slammed his fist on the ground, curled up like a shrimp, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans rolled down his face.

The familiar feeling is back!

It felt as if countless red-hot steel needles were piercing his joints!

It's like having surgery without anesthesia, getting covered in fiberglass, and then getting an electric shock with a sudden "snap!"

"Aaaaaah!" Tang San frantically shook his hands, trying to shake off the excruciating itching and pain.

But it was to no avail.

"I can't stop!"

"Ye Hua, stop right now!"

Ye Hua shrugged. "Didn't you want to prove your originality? Keep going, don't stop."

"I was wrong! I was wrong!" Tang San's voice trailed off. "It's plagiarism! It's all plagiarism!"

"I copied yours! Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track copied your Myriad Transformations of Divine Movement! Mysterious Jade Hand was copied too! It's all copied!"

After he shouted those words, his eyes went vacant, and the excruciating pain subsided.

Tang San collapsed, only able to groan.

"Tang San," Bai He shook his head, "Your apology is completely insincere."

Tang San was dumbfounded.

"Say thank you! Thank them for giving you a chance!"

Tang San's face instantly contorted into a ferocious expression.

I should thank him?!

You! You all have a way to die!

When I become a god, I will settle accounts with you all!

"Thank you for your generosity, Lord Night Alliance Leader!"

Tang San squeezed out the words through gritted teeth.

Ye Hua waved his hand casually, "It's alright, I'm always forgiving."

Silently doubling the pain in the [Self-Abuse Domain].

Niu Gao couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Tang San's face turned pale and then red, and he struggled to his feet, staggering away.

As he reached the threshold, he tripped and nearly fell flat on his face.

Tai Tan quickly grabbed him and disappeared out the door without looking back.

The curtain fell, bringing with it gusts of cold wind.

"Tsk," Ye Hua withdrew his gaze, "They ran pretty fast."

"Night Alliance Leader," Niu Gao immediately put on a smiling face, "Thanks to you, we weren't fooled by Tang San."

"I have already prepared a feast; please do me the honor of joining me!"

"It's almost lunchtime." Ye Hua nodded.

Ye Hua was ushered to the reception room, where a banquet was laid out, steaming hot and puffing out white vapor.

Meat dishes include braised pork knuckle, roasted lamb, and braised beef; vegetarian dishes include radish balls and stir-fried seasonal vegetables.

There are also a few jars of aged wine sealed with mud.

Niu Gao felt embarrassed about his humble appearance, but fortunately Ye Hua didn't mind.

After several rounds of drinks, Niu Gao put down his cup and said seriously—

"Night Alliance Leader, from this day forward, the Defense Clan, the Speed Clan, and the Breaking Clan!"

"More than a thousand Soul Master from the three races are willing to serve you faithfully!"

"You need to do whatever you want, we'll have no complaints!"

Bai He and Yang Wudi also raised their glasses, their eyes filled with hope.

Ye Hua clinked glasses with his, finished his drink, and smiled, "Since you trust me, I won't treat you unfairly."

"Authentic martial arts techniques can be obtained through merit points, and the three clan leaders can learn them directly."

"What?!" Niu Gao dropped his wine cup, wetting his trousers. "Alliance Leader, you..."

Such extraordinary skills are astonishing!

Say nothing!

Loyalty!

"Also, the three of you will be Elder from now on, so do a good job."

The three were pleasantly surprised, but quickly regained their composure.

"No, no," the Bai He declined, "We have neither the strength nor the merit, you're too kind to us!"

"Who said that?" Ye Hua said dismissively. "You are all craftsmen."

He looked at Niu Gao, "The Defense Clan excels in architecture. In the future, I will build Soul Tool Academy and expand the Spirit Pagoda. I won't need you, will I?"

Then, looking at the Bai He, he said, "With the speed of the Speed Clan, how could we do without you as scouts, intelligence messengers, and secret sentries in our territory?"

Finally, turning to Yang Wudi, he said, "The alchemy and poison-making skills of the Breaking Clan are undoubtedly of high quality, aren't they?"

The three of them were stunned by his words.

Niu Gao gulped down his wine, wiped his mouth, and said, "Since you've asked, I'll shamelessly become Elder!"

"If anyone dares to touch the Long Night Alliance again, I'll build a latrine on the graves of my ancestors for eighteen generations!"

Seeing their excitement, Ye Hua touched his forehead.

His original plan was for Titled Douluo to directly become Elder, like Tie Xiong and the others.

If Soul Douluo has special skills, such as alchemy, forging, or construction, they can also give them to the Elder.

These three are, after all, clan leaders. It's too neglectful of them to be Deacon like this by the stewards. It just so happens that they have some skills, so it's perfect for the Elder!

For the first time ever, Yang Wudi twitched the corner of his mouth and downed his drink in one gulp.

In high spirits, Bai He, slightly tipsy, asked, "Xiangxiang, how much good stuff did the Night Alliance Leader feed you?"

"That's all it took to get you from level 45 to the threshold of Soul King?"

Bai Chenxiang scratched his head, "This... a dozen or so medicinal herbs, and a piece of Five-Thousand-Year Spirit Bone..."

"Pfft! Cough cough!" The Bai He choked, its old face turning red. "A dozen or so? Five thousand years old?"

He only has one Crystal Dragon Blood Ginseng!

There's no Spirit Bone either!

This resource, even within a small sect, can cause a bloodbath!

"It's nothing," Ye Hua said casually, "Just a little trinket."

It's been almost five years since he acquired the Hundred Herbs Garden, hasn't it?

The Hundred Herbs Garden grows a thousand times faster, one day equals three years' worth!

One year is a thousand years, five years is five thousand years!

Moreover, the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King, being dutiful, will grow at twice the rate.

The earliest plants have lived for tens of thousands of years!

The last ones planted were the ones that Bai Chenxiang would eat!

"Night Alliance Leader," Bai He said with increasing determination, "Xiangxiang can't just eat for free!"

"Aren't you going on a trip? Let this girl be your guide!"

"She loves to run around and explore; she knows the place like the back of her hand!"

Ye Hua glanced at Bai Chenxiang, who was eating a chicken leg and winking at him.

"Alright," Ye Hua smiled, "Then I'll trouble Xiangxiang to lead the way."

While one side was filled with laughter, the other side was shrouded in gloom.

Tang San leaned against a tree, panting, beside the dusty street.

The lingering pain attacks intermittently, sharp and throbbing every few moments!

Without warning, it left him on his nerves!

Tai Tan looked worried. "Sect Leader, please rest for a while. I'll go find an inn."

"Thank you," Tang San said with a wry smile, "For your unwavering support."

"Once the Tang Sect becomes the number one sect in the world, you will surely become famous throughout the land!"

Watching Tai Tan leave, Tang San took a deep breath and took out the animal hide.

That was the [Misfortune Curse] he received when he became a disciple of Evil Soul Master.

He perused the densely packed incantations, his eyes filled with a tangible hatred.

"Ye Hua, do you think you can win?"

"Heh heh, take this!"

"Water gets stuck in your teeth, you trip and fall while walking, you choke while eating, you see a ghost when you open the door..."

"I had a nightmare tonight!!!"

The moonlight shone on his face, illuminating his bloodshot eyes.

Like a venomous snake whose tail has been stepped on, it coils up, hissing and flicking its tongue.

As it turns out, the "Misfortune Curse" is indeed true.

Black Line sneaks up Ye Hua is asleep!

"Hahaha! Ye Hua! I can't kill you, but can't I at least make you get dark circles under your eyes?"

Tang San was extremely smug. "Your fear will be amplified infinitely. Let it haunt your nightmares!"
