Qing Linyun rushed to Tang Wulin's side in one stride. His eyes were calm, but his hands moved swiftly, unleashing a palm strike.
The powerful Soul Power poured into Tang Wulin's body, not to fight against the Asura energy, but like building a dam, gradually gathering, guiding, and pressing the rampaging Soul Power back onto the right track.
After all, while the Asura Divine Power was strong, Qing Linyun was by no means weak either. After all, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger Martial Soul was born with evil divine power, not to mention that Qing Linyun also possessed the power of the tenth level of the Golden Dragon King Bloodline at this moment.
If they start attacking Tang Wulin's body, Tang Wulin will be reduced to ashes in the next second.
Perhaps it's because of the Asura God Bloodline.
That energy was extremely tyrannical, completely disregarding him as an outsider guide, and nearly shattered his Soul Power several times.
He frowned slightly, then increased the intensity of his Soul Power output.
"Behave yourself."
The Soul Power pressed down layer by layer.
The Golden Dragon King Bloodline circulated within him, and the golden Soul Power, carrying the domineering nature of the dragon race, clashed several times with the Asura energy in Tang Wulin's meridians before finally subduing it.
The surging Soul Power within Tang Wulin's body was like a tamed wild beast. Under his guidance, it gradually restrained its violent momentum and began to circulate along the proper meridian pathways.
The level is still increasing.
Level 20, Level 21.
Qing Linyun frowned and continued to intensify his suppression.
The Soul Power stopped at the level twenty-one, no longer surging upwards, but slowly solidifying like sediment.
The ethereal Soul Power became solid, and the swelling and pain in the meridians gradually subsided.
Tang Wulin's Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul automatically appeared on his right hand.
Two Hundred-Year Soul Ring.
The Second Soul Ring also takes a hundred years.
Tang Wulin's breathing gradually calmed down, and his convulsions stopped. But he was completely exhausted, his head lolled to the side, and he fainted.
Qing Linyun withdrew his hand and let out a long breath.
Things have finally stabilized.
The Asura God's energy is no joke; if he were even a fraction of a second slower, Tang Wulin's meridians would have been burst by that domineering energy.
He stood up, bent down, picked Tang Wulin up horizontally, carried him to the recliner in the corner of the training room, and gently placed him on it.
Tang Wulin's face was pale, and there was still blood on his lips, but his breathing was already even.
The small hammer had disappeared, sinking back into his Sea of Consciousness, leaving only a faint, blood-red line on the back of his right hand, barely visible.
Qing Linyun stood beside the recliner, looking at Tang Wulin's face.
His expression gradually darkened.
The training room was so quiet that only Tang Wulin's breathing could be heard.
Qing Linyun turned his back to the recliner and walked to the window. Outside the window was the playground of the Eastsea Academy. The morning sun shone on the track, and in the distance, several students were running and shouting slogans.
He looked out the window, but his mind was in turmoil.
Tang Wulin's awakening of the Clear Sky Hammer at this critical juncture could not possibly be due to spontaneous awakening.
There is only one possibility.
Tang San made his move.
This means that Tang San has now fully awakened and immediately realized that the Golden Dragon King Bloodline has disappeared from Tang Wulin's body.
The question is, did Tang San trace it back to him?
Qing Linyun carefully recalled the process of transferring his bloodline.
The system operates at the highest level throughout the entire process, so there should be no risk of exposure.
Given Tang San's current state, his divine sense likely lacks the ability to act independently. He probably only knows that his bloodline is gone, but he may not be able to pinpoint who did it.
' The Soul Saint stole the God King's bloodline; who would believe that?'
Qing Linyun's lips twitched slightly. What he said was true, after all, Tang San thought the same thing and immediately dismissed any suspicions about Qing Linyun.
But that doesn't mean he's safe.
Who is Tang San?
The most cunning god in the history of the Douluo Continent, without exception.
The contingency plan he left for Tang Wulin went far beyond just the Asura God Bloodline.
In the original novel, Tang San also put Tang Wulin through a divine test, which, although incomplete, was indeed a divine test.
Qing Linyun wasn't sure either. If Tang San was really pushed to the limit, would the divine trial allow him to directly inherit the divine position? After all, even Super Divine Artifact could be passed down, so it seemed like the divine position should be able to as well.
With the Golden Dragon King's bloodline gone, Tang San immediately awakened Second Martial Soul for Tang Wulin to ensure his normal growth.
Qing Linyun turned around and looked at Tang Wulin, who was unconscious on the recliner.
His gaze fell on Tang Wulin's right hand, where a faint blood-red line was faintly visible in the sunlight.
The murderous intent arose at that moment.
It's subtle, but very real.
If Tang San were to kill Tang Wulin with a single palm strike now, his Tang San Asura plan would fail, and the Sea God Inheritance would be severed, seemingly ending everything once and for all.
Qing Linyun's right hand unconsciously rose, palm facing Tang Wulin's crown.
Just one palm strike.
He is currently Level 78 Soul Saint, while Tang Wulin is a level 21 Soul Grandmaster, a gap of more than 50 levels between them.
With that palm strike, Tang Wulin didn't even have a chance to react.
But his hand remained frozen in mid-air.
'Kill him, and then what?'
A voice in my head is asking a question.
Tang San will absolutely not let this go after killing Tang Wulin.
A raging god, even with just a single thought, could turn the entire Eastsea City upside down.
Besides, Tang San had more than one backup plan in the Douluo Continent; Ah Yin and Tang Hao are still alive.
More importantly, he hasn't become a god yet. To be honest, if Qing Linyun doesn't rely on the items he gets from the daily shop in the system, he doesn't have the confidence to become a god.
Unless it's a direct attack, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's devouring ability will cause the mad dog to chew and chew.
Therefore, he still needs time to continue reorganizing the Daily Shop in hopes of achieving godhood.
Before he has the ability to protect himself, going head-to-head with Tang San is tantamount to suicide.
After all, the current situation hasn't reached the point where it's necessary to fight Tang San to the death.
I now have a master-disciple relationship with Tang Wulin.
"A teacher for a day is a father for life"—this can be considered a way out that Qing Linyun left for himself.
Killing Tang Wulin would yield him nothing, instead exposing him to Tang San's watchful eye. However, keeping Tang Wulin alive and maintaining their master-disciple relationship would allow him to continue operating under Tang San's watchful eye, developing his skills and laying his plans simultaneously.
Who can predict the future?
Tang Wulin is currently Tang San's pawn, but pawns can be flipped. Once Qing Linyun truly has the strength to rival Tang San, Tang Wulin's move might very well be used by him.
At least for now, keeping Tang Wulin alive is more useful than killing him.
Qing Linyun slowly withdrew his hand.
He stood there and looked at Tang Wulin for two seconds, then took out a bottle of recovery pills from his pocket and threw them on the small table next to the recliner. Tang Wulin would take them when he woke up.
Just then, the door to the training room was pushed open.
Qing Linyun almost instinctively suppressed all his emotions, and his face returned to its usual nonchalant expression.
Gu Yue swaggered in.
Today she wore a light purple hoodie, with the hood pulled up over her head, her hands in her pockets, and her steps were as leisurely as if she were taking a stroll in her own backyard.
The first thing she saw when she entered was Tang Wulin, who was fast asleep on a recliner.
Gu Yue's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly, and a flash of disgust crossed her eyes. It was as if she had seen something filthy.
But the next second, her gaze shifted away.
Because she sensed it.
An extremely rich aura of bloodline emanated from Qing Linyun.
That aura was ancient, violent, and carried the supreme pressure of the dragon race; without a doubt, it belonged to the Golden Dragon King.
It was exactly the same aura she had been searching for in Tang Wulin all this time.
Gu Yue stopped in her tracks.
She stared at Qing Linyun, her eyes widening little by little.
The Golden Dragon King Bloodline.
It was actually on that guy Qing Linyun.
Moreover, it wasn't just a superficial contact; it had completely blended with Qing Linyun's own aura, becoming indistinguishable from it.
This means that the Golden Dragon King Bloodline is not just temporarily residing here, but has become a complete part of Qing Linyun.
Gu Yue's expression became extremely complicated.
Her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but she swallowed it back.
Her gaze swept back and forth between Qing Linyun and Tang Wulin on the recliner twice, as if confirming something. Her breathing rhythm changed, and her chest rose and fell slightly.
Qing Linyun felt extremely uncomfortable under her gaze.
He took two steps back, coughed lightly, and adopted a serious expression.
"Since you paid me to be your teacher, what would you like to learn today?"
Gu Yue did not answer immediately.
She stared straight at Qing Linyun, her eyes churning with unspoken emotions.
Surprise, anger, and a hint of other indescribable emotion.
Her fingers clenched and unclenched repeatedly in her pocket.
Silver Dragon King King's fist is thirsting for blood.
Gu Yue didn't know how he felt. If Tang Wulin had the Golden Dragon King Bloodline, he could easily kill Tang Wulin and take the Golden Dragon King Bloodline away. It wouldn't be a psychological burden for him.
But now, the Golden Dragon King Seal has appeared on Qing Linyun's body.
