"Master truly was Master. You recognized me at a glance."
"But when it came to Xiao San, it seemed you had misjudged him somewhat."
"Even if my son, Tang Hao's son, had Blue Silver Grass as his Martial Soul, he was absolutely no ordinary person."
Tang Hao did not know what Yu Xiaogang was thinking, but as he looked at the Master, who had been frightened into collapsing onto the ground, a trace of contempt still unconsciously appeared in his eyes.
This fellow truly did not deserve any sympathy for being called a clown.
He had merely seen Tang Hao and already been scared into sitting on the ground. He had no courage whatsoever.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had made the right choice in driving him out.
"Xiao San is actually your son!"
After receiving Tang Hao's confirmation, the Master felt even more terrified.
Why was Tang Hao telling him this?
Was he threatening him?
Or was he planning to kill him to silence him, letting him understand everything before he died?
"That's right. Tang San is my son."
"It is simply that, due to certain matters, I cannot personally care for him. But Master, I believe in your abilities."
"I'll have to trouble you to take care of Xiao San during this time."
Tang Hao said he was entrusting Xiao San to Yu Xiaogang's care, yet he released the pressure of a Titled Douluo.
He was clearly threatening Yu Xiaogang, telling him that Tang San had backing too!
If you did not take proper care of my son, I would kill you!
"I-I understand. I'll take good care of Xiao San!"
"He is my student, and I am his teacher. Looking after him is only right."
Feeling that terrifying pressure, Yu Xiaogang could not help swallowing.
He felt a slight wetness between his legs.
"Good."
Tang Hao's gaze toward Yu Xiaogang was full of suspicion.
Take good care of him? Making a Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo his first Soul Ring—was that what he called taking good care of him?
Abandoning his student in the face of danger and being the first to run away—was that what he called taking good care of him?
If that counted, then he really had taken excellent care of him.
"Alright. Do not tell anyone that you have seen me, or be careful not to bring disaster upon yourself."
Tang Hao turned and left as he spoke. With a flicker of his figure, he vanished.
"H-He's gone!"
Yu Xiaogang watched Tang Hao disappear. He let out a breath of relief, but then his heart tightened again.
"He told me to take good care of Tang San. Does that mean Tang San can casually absorb my Soul Power!"
"Do they want to parasitize me, then drain me dry!"
"No, no, I have to ask for help. I need to report Tang Hao to Spirit Hall!"
Yu Xiaogang braced his hands against the ground and tried to climb up, intending to go to Spirit Hall and report Tang Hao and his son.
But just as he got up, he suddenly thought of something else.
"Did Tang Hao really leave?"
"Could he have not left at all? Could he actually still be watching me?"
"If I go to Spirit Hall, he'll beat me to death right away!"
As Yu Xiaogang thought of this, he suddenly felt as though needles were pricking his back.
Looking around, the dark academy seemed to conceal danger everywhere!
"No, I can't do anything right now."
"I can only do as Tang Hao said. Only then can I survive!"
Yu Xiaogang thought about Tang San, gritted his teeth, and made his decision.
So what if his Soul Power was absorbed? He could endure it!
As long as he could stay alive, he could accept anything!
From this day on, he would desperately grovel before Tang San. As long as Tang San spared him,
he would do anything!
A perfectly normal Douluo Continent had somehow been turned into a rule-based horror story by Yu Xiaogang.
Meanwhile, inside Dorm Seven.
"This Mysterious Heaven Skill really has quite a lot of functions. I truly underestimated this cultivation method before!"
Over the past three months, Qin Qi had already learned Purple Demon Eyes, Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon,
the Hidden Weapons Compendium, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, poison and medicine proficiency, and the Mysterious Heaven Skill.
Tang San had basically been completely emptied out.
"The Mysterious Heaven Skill does not merely increase cultivation speed. It can also refine the quality of Soul Power."
Qin Qi sensed the Soul Power within his body becoming noticeably tougher.
He could not help feeling delighted. The Soul Power he had directly stolen with the Formless Hand had only been ordinary Soul Power.
But after being transformed by the Mysterious Heaven Skill, it became Mysterious Heaven Skill Soul Power.
It possessed the trait of endless renewal and could improve the body's vitality, injury recovery speed, and more.
At the same level and with the same Soul Skill, Mysterious Heaven Skill Soul Power consumed less than ordinary Soul Power!
Moreover, the Mysterious Heaven Skill could continue operating even in battle.
Its Soul Power recovery speed was greatly increased.
"And it even has methods for opening the Extraordinary Meridians and Eight Channels. If I open them all, then my physical constitution..."
"...the quality of my Soul Power, and my Soul Power capacity should all improve."
Qin Qi continued digging into the Mysterious Heaven Skill's functions. The more he uncovered, the more formidable he found it.
No wonder people online had once called the Mysterious Heaven Skill a God King-level cultivation method.
That might have been a little exaggerated, but in the era of Douluo Continent,
the Mysterious Heaven Skill was absolutely a dimensionality-reduction strike!
It was like a three-body alien bombing primitive fish!
In a game, something like this would get banned.
"But the most useful aspect for me is its continuous Soul Power recovery."
"Using the Strangers at First Sight killing move requires me to constantly consume Soul Power."
"But now that I have the Mysterious Heaven Skill, I can use Strangers at First Sight"
"while recovering Soul Power at the same time."
Qin Qi felt somewhat excited. He had already learned nearly everything worth learning at Notting Academy.
Now, with the Mysterious Heaven Skill's recovery boost, once he mastered the Familiar at First Sight killing move, he could try leaving.
"The Golden Saint Dragon is an External Beast Martial Soul, and it even has its own will."
"Later, I can try letting the Golden Saint Dragon cultivate as well."
Lying on his bed, Qin Qi pondered his future development plans. Aside from where he would go next,
the most important matter was how he should cultivate afterward.
"Right, Tang San should already have his first Soul Ring. Most likely, it is a Datura Snake."
"Blue Silver Grass enhanced by a Datura Snake? Honestly, you might as well have chosen Lone Bamboo."
"At least Lone Bamboo's attribute matches."
Qin Qi tilted his head slightly and looked at Tang San, who was sleeping. He felt that Xiao San was finished.
Instead of developing his perfectly good life attribute, he insisted on adding some poison attribute. Wasn't that just blindly messing around?
"Ah, what a pity. Since you don't know how to use it, let me use it instead."
Qin Qi used the Formless Hand and directly grabbed at Tang San, pulling out the Blue Silver Emperor's origin!
The Blue Silver Emperor's origin was filled with life energy, and he directly fed it to the Golden Saint Dragon.
"Alright, Tang San won't have to struggle over it now. His Blue Silver Grass will no longer become the life-attribute Blue Silver Emperor."
Qin Qi lay down to sleep, while the Golden Saint Dragon began digesting the Blue Silver Emperor's life origin.
The following afternoon, Qin Qi brought the Golden Saint Dragon to Soul Hunting Forest to inspect the changes brought by the Blue Silver Emperor's life origin.
