"Excellent!"
Ji Yang gave Er Ming an approving look, then turned to Xiao Wu.
"The soul beast aura on you has almost completely dissipated. Combined with the effects of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red Pill, even a Limit Douluo would find it difficult to identify your true nature now!"
Ji Yang said.
Compared with Xiao Wu's progress in cultivation, this was naturally what he cared about more.
And his description of it was no exaggeration.
For instance, even with his peak Spirit Abyss Realm spiritual power, he could no longer detect anything unusual about Xiao Wu or discern her true form.
Perhaps only a being at the quasi-god level would have a chance of noticing anything strange about her.
But once Xiao Wu took another step forward and became a Soul Saint, she would truly become human, no different from anyone else. Even if a deity came, they could no longer regard her as a soul beast.
"Really? That's wonderful!"
Xiao Wu was naturally thrilled to hear this.
How could she ever have imagined that, after taking human form, she would pass through maturity so quickly and reach complete human transformation in just three years or so?
All of this was thanks to Ji Yang.
She felt fortunate to have met Ji Yang, and even more grateful to her mother, who had once helped his family.
From now on, she could finally roam and live freely in the human world.
"That's wonderful, Sister Xiao Wu!"
Er Ming was happy for Xiao Wu too.
Now they truly no longer had to worry about Sister Xiao Wu's situation.
"Xiao Wu, you're a soul beast?"
While Xiao Wu and Er Ming were celebrating, Dugu Yan pointed at Xiao Wu from beside them, trembling slightly.
"That's right. I'm a hundred-thousand-year soft bone rabbit who underwent Human Form Transformation."
Xiao Wu admitted it openly.
Now that she was almost fully mature, she had no qualms about revealing this herself.
Besides, Dugu Yan was already one of their own.
Dugu Yan knew what she should and should not say.
As for whether Dugu Yan would feel uncomfortable about it, Xiao Wu did not particularly care.
As long as Ji Yang did not mind her origins, that was enough.
And she clearly had no need to worry about that.
"This..."
With Xiao Wu's confirmation, Dugu Yan was even more shocked.
After all, Xiao Wu was a human who had undergone Human Form Transformation as a hundred-thousand-year soul beast!
She had never even seen a hundred-thousand-year soul beast before, let alone one that had undergone Human Form Transformation.
"It isn't just Xiao Wu. Da Ming and Er Ming are too. This is one of our Pill Tower's greatest secrets, so remember not to disclose it. Later, make sure you tell your grandfather to keep it confidential as well!"
Ji Yang looked at Dugu Yan as he spoke.
"Senior Da Ming and Senior Er Ming are too?"
Dugu Yan looked at Er Ming, who was staring at her with his large eyes, then at Da Ming, who was still refining his pill nearby. Her expression grew even more astonished.
In other words, their Pill Tower had three hundred-thousand-year soul beasts?
She simply did not know whether Da Ming and Er Ming had undergone Human Form Transformation.
What was more, if outsiders learned of this, especially Spirit Hall and the Upper Three Sects, they would probably throw everything they had into attacking the Pill Tower, just to seize the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings and soul bones.
When that happened, she and her grandfather would inevitably be dragged into it and face a terrible calamity.
At that thought, Dugu Yan immediately understood the gravity of the matter.
"Rest assured, Sect Master. Since my grandfather and I have joined the Pill Tower, we certainly won't reveal its core secrets. I'll inform Grandfather of this later as well!"
Dugu Yan immediately raised her hand and gave her assurance.
"I trust you both!"
Ji Yang smiled faintly.
Naturally, he had no doubts about this.
Whether because of their character or their courage, neither Dugu Bo nor his granddaughter would dare do such a thing.
"By the way, did you gain any other benefits? The effects of Lovesick Heartbreak Red go beyond greatly increasing your soul power level and concealing your aura!"
Ji Yang turned to Xiao Wu again and asked.
If he remembered correctly, Lovesick Heartbreak Red could also protect its master, revive the dead, and restore flesh to bare bones.
"Of course! After refining the Lovesick Heartbreak Red Pill, I gained life-saving abilities too-two of them, in fact."
"If I suffer a severe injury that threatens my life, the remaining medicinal power of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red Pill in my body can revive the dead and restore flesh to bare bones, repairing my life essence and letting me rise from the brink of death. Even if only my soul remains, it can still rebuild my body."
"Also, if I'm about to suffer a blow powerful enough to erase my life, another portion of the pill's medicinal power can turn into a powerful divine light that protects my body and blocks that strike. Even a Limit Douluo would find it difficult to kill me on the spot with a single move!"
Xiao Wu spoke with smug delight, brimming with pride.
With those two life-saving trump cards, she certainly had every reason to feel pleased.
All she could say was that the Lovesick Heartbreak Red Pill was simply too good.
"That really is impressive!"
Ji Yang clicked his tongue in wonder.
Although he had already known roughly what to expect, hearing it still left him somewhat amazed.
The Bagua Alchemy Furnace Martial Soul was simply too powerful. It had actually enhanced Lovesick Heartbreak Red's original abilities to such a degree.
"It's really that powerful?!"
Dugu Yan was struck speechless, while Er Ming sucked in a sharp breath.
Reviving the dead, restoring flesh to bare bones, repairing life essence, and rebuilding a body were astonishing enough, but the Lovesick Heartbreak Red Pill could even withstand a Limit Douluo's attack?
Wasn't that far too overpowered?
In other words, even if he and Da Ming joined forces, they could not kill Xiao Wu.
Pah, pah, pah! We don't want to kill Xiao Wu, and we certainly never would.
They were Sister Xiao Wu's two loyal brothers!
"Hmph, hmph! If you don't believe me, Er Ming, you can try!"
Seeing that Er Ming seemed doubtful, Xiao Wu huffed twice, looking eager to give it a go.
"Then shall I try?"
Er Ming began to feel a little interested.
But before they could actually test it, Ji Yang gave each of them a hard slap on the head.
"Try, my ass! These should be one-use abilities, right? If you use them casually now, wouldn't that be a complete waste? Are you two idiots?!"
Ji Yang spoke in exasperation.
Of these two, Xiao Wu dared to suggest anything, and Er Ming dared to do it.
"Uh... I suppose you're right!"
"Heh..."
Xiao Wu and Er Ming, who had been about to cry out in pain and protest, immediately gave sheepish smiles and abandoned the idea in utter embarrassment.
He was right. How could they waste such crucial abilities?
The two of them really had been acting like fools!
It was only because Da Ming had yet to finish refining his pill. Otherwise, their stupidity might have reduced him to tears, and he would have given them a slap too, to teach them a proper lesson.
"Oh, right. Besides those life-saving abilities, I gained another ability too. Since Lovesick Heartbreak Red is the king of flowers and plants, I'll have the ability to suppress all plant soul beasts and Soul Masters with plant martial souls. Even ultimate wood is no exception."
As though trying to change the subject, Xiao Wu acted as if she had remembered something else and added this.
Although she did indeed want to change the subject and avoid further embarrassment, she was not making this up.
She really had forgotten to mention it earlier.
And while this ability granted by the Lovesick Heartbreak Red Pill seemed less impressive than the two life-saving abilities, it could work wonders in certain situations.
Thus, Xiao Wu still liked this ability very much.
What delighted her most was that this ability was permanent, unlike those two single-use life-saving abilities.
That made it even more useful!
