However, Liu Erlong quickly snapped out of her sorrowful sighs and fiercely hugged Xiao Yu.
"Wow! Xiao Yu, you're amazing! You're truly your teacher's pride!!!"
Then her red lips landed hard on Xiao Yu's cheek!!
After that, she hugged Xiao Yu tightly with great affection.
Having his face buried in her soft breasts, Xiao Yu did not know what to do for a moment and could only lose himself in their smooth softness!
Watching this scene from the side, Yu Luomian somehow recalled the joke his elder brother had made before.
But after only a moment, Yu Luomian forcibly suppressed the thought and ignored it.
"Good boy, this trip has truly been fruitful. We shouldn't delay any longer. Before it gets dark, let's hurry and leave!"
No one else objected. Although Dugu Bo really wanted to visit his herb garden, Yu Luomian was here, so it was not convenient for him to leave alone.
Thus, he left together with them.
Before long, the four of them departed Sunset Forest.
Although Xiao Yu had not hunted a Soul Ring that satisfied him on this trip, there had still been plenty of unexpected gains. Not only had Xiao Yu obtained another thousand-year Soul Ring, but he had also gained an External Soul Bone that had evolved into dragon wings.
The harvest had been enormous!!
While Xiao Yu and the other three were happily making their way out of Sunset Forest.
Things were not going so well for Tang San in Soul Hunting Forest.
At this moment, the three of them had not only failed to kill the Ghost Vine, but had also been tightly bound by its vines.
It turned out that not long ago, while the Nuoding Academy headmaster had been fighting the Ghost Vine, he carelessly allowed himself to be parasitized by its spores.
Once the spores grew, they directly inflicted considerable injuries on the headmaster!
This caused him to lose more than half his combat strength.
The situation that had originally seemed certain to succeed was now completely reversed.
Now, the Ghost Vine had them completely in its grasp!
If the headmaster had not possessed a fire-attribute Spirit that happened to counter the Ghost Vine.
He might already have fled with Tang San and Yu Xiaogang.
And while the headmaster's situation was bad, Master's was even worse.
Having already released Three-Eyed Toad's three farts, it was now completely entangled by parasitic vines and unable to move.
Its originally fat body had been completely drained of Soul Power. Three-Eyed Toad now looked emaciated and incomparably weak!
Yu Xiaogang himself was also covered in Ghost Vine spores, ready to take root and sprout at any moment.
If those spores took root and sprouted on Yu Xiaogang's body, he would undoubtedly die.
As for Tang San, even Yu Xiaogang and the headmaster had been bound.
What could a mere Soul Master like him do?
Tang San had been the first to be parasitized by those spores.
Facing the Ghost Vine's attacks, even with Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and Hidden Weapons, Tang San could not evade everything.
The dense spores that were everywhere and never ceased made Tang San's footwork suffer greatly.
Yet despite this, Tang San was not worried about his current predicament at all. Instead, he was extremely excited.
Because after seeing how formidable the Ghost Vine's spores were.
Tang San wanted this Soul Ring even more.
Such a powerful soul skill would definitely elevate the binding ability of his Blue Silver Grass, already made incomparably tough by the Mandala Snake Spirit, to an even higher level.
Then, his Hidden Weapons would have even more room to shine!
As expected of Master. He really is amazing, to have thought of such a formidable soul beast for me!!
But upon thinking of this, Tang San could not help looking toward the headmaster with displeasure.
He had not expected the headmaster to be so weak. A dignified Soul Ancestor could not even defeat a soul beast of just over six hundred years.
If he had won earlier, Tang San might already have been absorbing his Soul Ring by now.
A situation that should have been an assured victory had turned into this, leaving Tang San deeply dissatisfied and annoyed.
With such weak cultivation, how could he be a headmaster?! He was truly unworthy of his position!
He would be better off letting his teacher take the role!
Even if Master was not strong, his theoretical knowledge was formidable! Once Tang San's strength grew, he would become Master's support. Then who would dare bully Master?
Meanwhile, the Nuoding Academy headmaster had no idea what Tang San was thinking.
If he had known, he might even have left immediately.
He was the dignified headmaster of Nuoding Academy—why should he put up with this nonsense?!
"Headmaster, we need to retreat! If we keep fighting, we'll all die here!!"
As for the Yu Xiaogang whom Tang San respected so greatly, he looked at the scene before him with despair and shouted.
He did not want to die here.
Although he wanted to prove himself, he wanted to stay alive even more.
As for this being Xiao San's optimal choice for his second Soul Ring, so what?!
His life was what mattered most!
Hearing his teacher say they should give up on this Soul Ring left Tang San completely stunned.
Teacher, what are you doing?! That's my second Soul Ring. How can you say something like that?!!
Tang San immediately tried to persuade him otherwise.
"Teacher, no, we can't leave. If we leave, what about my Soul Ring? I really want this soul beast!"
"Xiao San, let's retreat for now. Even the headmaster can't defeat this thing. If we stay, it'll only become more dangerous!! Let's leave first, recover from our injuries, and come back later! It's only a hundred-year Soul Ring. There's no need to risk our lives like this!"
"But—"
"No buts. I'm your teacher, listen to me!!"
Hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, a trace of anger rose in Tang San's heart.
This is my Soul Ring! How could Teacher do this? Come back next time? What if someone kills this soul beast before then?
For a moment, Tang San, clouded by anger, subconsciously began resenting his teacher's lack of strength.
After all, if Master had been strong enough, why would they have needed to ask that unworthy headmaster for help?
No, Tang San, how can you think that way about your teacher?! He's your teacher!!! You're a person, not a beast!!
The next moment, his conscience gained the upper hand, and Tang San returned to being that good child once more.
But his heart was still filled with unwillingness.
He wanted this Soul Ring far too badly.
Boom!!
However, just as the headmaster took the advice and prepared to make a move to take them away, a black afterimage crashed down from the sky at incredible speed!
Then, with overwhelming violence, it directly smashed the Ghost Vine soul beast flat.
The terrifying impact of that blow sent Tang San and the other two, who had been pinned by the vines, flying more than ten meters away.
The Ghost Vine's territory, which had originally been pitch-black, was blasted brilliantly bright by that strike.
When the scorching sunlight shone upon their faces, the sight before them left them all dumbfounded. What had just happened?!
What was that attack just now?!
That single attack had flattened the entire ground.
