Brother Scar's redemption
Three days later.
Lin En returned to the cave entrance, having already spent three full days inside with the Wolf Bandits and Scar.
Whether the Wolf Bandits were exhausted to death or Scar possessed incredible willpower and was completely drained by Wolf Bandits, even Lin En himself was very curious.
He summoned Sagros, who smashed the boulder blocking the cave entrance, revealing a horrific scene inside.
A pungent smell hit him, and Lin En frowned.
"Sagros, get rid of this stench!"
"Sa--"
Sagros flapped his wings, instantly creating a powerful gale that swept through the cave, blowing away the pungent smell completely.
Lin En walked in slowly.
Lin En's eyes widened as he stared at the dead Wolf Bandits and Brother Scar, who was munching on its corpse.
He ate it?
What half- Wolf Bandits?
Although Brother Scar's limbs were dislocated, his instinctive will to survive compelled him to eat desperately.
Lin En was puzzled. How did Scar manage to remove all his teeth?
He stepped forward, staring blankly at the Wolf Bandits -like fangs in Brother Scar's mouth.
Wait, did you put the Wolf Bandits's teeth in your mouth?
Lin En's eyes narrowed, and he immediately noticed something amiss.
This doesn't seem to be a simple stitching, but rather External Soul Bone, with faint Soul Power fluctuations emanating from the teeth.
Seeing this scene, Lin En couldn't help but feel that Scar's life was not meant to end.
What incredible luck! After the Wolf Bandits's death, I obtained an External Soul Bone. But what's the use of this tooth- External Soul Bone?
In battle, should you rush forward and tear your opponent apart?
Lin En almost couldn't hold back his emotions when he thought about that scene. The good news was that he had gained an External Soul Bone; the bad news was that it seemed to be useless...
Its only purpose should be to prevent food from getting stuck in your teeth when you eat!
"Unexpectedly, a Wolf Bandits with a thousand years of cultivation could actually drop External Soul Bone. Rare indeed..."
Lin En reached up and touched his chin, his gaze towards Scar turning strange.
Could it be that this Scar also has an added boost of luck?
After all, Tang San is the chosen one, so it's not unreasonable for someone who took Tang San's first shot and first blood to have absorbed a bit of his power, right?
Lin En thought with a rather wicked sense of humor.
Since Brother Scar isn't meant to die, I'll spare his life. Let him fight Shrek, or let Tang Hao taste the bitterness of despair!
With that in mind, Lin En stopped hesitating.
He took out a water pouch from his Storage Soul Tool and poured it on Scar's head to wake him up.
After being violently stimulated by the cold water, Brother Scar, who was on the verge of death, finally regained some consciousness.
Is this... heaven?
Brother Scar slowly opened his eyes and murmured softly.
"Woke up?"
Lin En's face came into Brother Scar's view, a wicked smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
Brother Scar's eyes widened instantly.
This isn't heaven; it's hell!
Lin En is Satan!
Brother Scar started slapping himself frantically, muttering, "This must be hell, it must be hell..."
Seeing this, Lin En's lips twitched a few times, and he kicked Brother Scar to the ground.
"Useless trash, see clearly whether I'm a human or a ghost!"
Lin En glared at him, instantly scarring Brother Scar so much that he knelt before him and kowtowed frantically.
That glare instantly connected his memories with his past self from three days ago.
The kind-hearted person has taken the blame!
"Master, I was wrong, I'll never do it again..."
"Spare me! From now on, I'll be your most loyal dog. If you tell me to go east, I'll never go west!"
"I, Scar, will brave mountains of knives and seas of fire without hesitation. Even if you take my life, I will commit suicide on the spot!"
Lin En smiled slightly, "Remember what you said today, this will be your last chance!"
Looking at Scar, who had completely submitted, Lin En's lips curled up slightly. Eight Spider Lances burst out from his back, forcibly resetting Brother Scar's limbs.
Feeling the return of his inner strength, Brother Scar was overwhelmed with gratitude and immediately said, "I would give my life for you!"
"Thank you, Master!"
"Alright, I'll only listen to one side of loyalty, because I want you to prove it with your actions!"
Lin En said coldly.
Anyone can utter words of loyalty, but one's heart and actions are the true test of who is loyal and who is betraying.
"Yes, Master, what are your orders?"
Brother Scar looked slightly embarrassed, but quickly he asked with a loyal expression.
Lin En took out a Storage Ring and tossed it to Brother Scar.
"This contains Shrek's information. Afterwards, I need you to deal with them. The details of the mission are all in my Storage Ring!"
"Besides that, there are also a large amount of cultivation resources inside, enough for you to reach the Soul Emperor level."
"Thank you for the gift, Master!"
When Brother Scar heard that the resources inside could boost his cultivation from Soul King to Soul Emperor, his fingers trembled slightly.
Don't be so happy yet!
Lin En said calmly, "What I'm giving you is simply to bridge the gap in your wedding arrangements."
"There are two Soul Saint in Shrek, and I've given you a secret weapon. Even if you're Soul Emperor, a successful sneak attack can instantly kill Soul Saint!"
"How you proceed is entirely up to you; I won't interfere, I'll only look at the results!"
Upon hearing that the target of this mission was actually a Soul Saint, Brother Scar's eyebrows twitched three times.
However, upon hearing that the secret weapon could punish Soul Saint, the tension in his heart subsided slightly.
There was no way around it; the difference in Soul Power was too great. Even with his Soul Emperor strength, two more Soul Saint wouldn't be a match for him.
"Don't worry, Master, I'm a master of underhanded tactics!"
Brother Scar was brimming with confidence; give him a little push, and he could even make a Titled Douluo cry!
"Don't make grand pronouncements too soon. If I don't see the results, you know what I'm capable of!"
"I understand, I understand..."
Brother Scar's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly echoed in agreement.
"By the way, you're lucky to have obtained an External Soul Bone. Who knows, this Soul Bone might be very useful to you in the future~"
Lin En smiled slightly, tossed him a mirror after speaking, and then left the cave.
External Soul Bone? What's External Soul Bone?
Brother Scar looked completely bewildered.
He took the mirror and looked at his newly grown teeth, his expression immediately turning blank.
Holy crap, how did my teeth turn into wolf fangs?
Wait, could this be the External Soul Bone? Teeth? that the master mentioned?
Brother Scar's lips twitched a few times.
He had no idea when he absorbed the Soul Bone; he had fainted two days earlier and was only being kept alive by his subconscious.
"Well, at least I have teeth now, it's just that they're a bit too ugly..."
