Chapter 214 Xiao Wu's Heartbreak
The moment Xiao Wu saw Tang San, it was as if she had seen a lifeline.
During their time together in Notting City, she and Tang San had already formed a deep friendship.
In Soto, they even became sworn siblings.
Tang San also declared his ambitious statement that anyone who wanted to kill her would have to step over her corpse first.
So the moment Xiao Wu saw Tang San, she, who had been living in fear for days, uncontrollably lunged at the iron cage closest to Tang San.
He lay on the iron cage, reaching out his hand to Tang San for help, his eyes filled with fear and the light of hope.
Geek!
Tang San was momentarily stunned by what he saw.
If he and Gu Xuan didn't have any grudges, that would be fine, but the current situation is that he has already formed a deadly feud with Gu Xuan.
He can't even save himself, how can he save Xiao Wu?
Using words to deceive?
He'd rather be completely invisible right now!
Everyone instinctively turned their gaze to Tang San.
Xiao Wu is a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form, but she is asking for help from another person. Could it be that Tang San is also a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form?
Stared at by these malicious gazes, Tang San couldn't help but shiver and lower his head.
snort!
Upon seeing this, Chen Xin reached out and placed his hand on Tang San, letting out a cold snort as his level 97 soul power instantly emanated.
Tang San, how could he not know that this is not a 100,000-year-old soul beast?
"Little Third, do you know this transformed soul beast?"
Although they knew Tang San wasn't a transformed soul beast, they still had to give these people an explanation, otherwise it would definitely be a problem for Tang San.
"She, she was my classmate in the past."
Tang San said in a somewhat uncertain tone.
Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin nodded as if they agreed with this excuse. Although there seemed to be something fishy going on, it wasn't the time for them to investigate.
However, this is enough to give those who are curious an explanation; there's no need to make too much of a fuss.
I'll ask about the details when I get back.
However, he was unaware of the extent of the hurt his words caused Xiao Wu. Seeing Tang San's expression of being afraid of being associated with her, Xiao Wu instantly understood.
This whole "sibling" thing, this "stepping over corpses" thing—it's all fake, just human nonsense to fool the soul beasts.
Even though her mother was also deceived by humans and died in the same way, why can't she remember?
There isn't a single person in humanity you can trust.
Everyone else is like this, and so is Tang San!
Seeing Tang San lower his head, Xiao Wu seemed to understand something, and her long-dormant brain finally started working again.
The feeling of seeing hope only to fall back into the abyss is truly unbearable.
Xiao Wu smiled bitterly and ironically, withdrew her hand from the iron cage, and sat down again, hugging her knees, utterly despondent.
"Ahhh, Sister Xiaowu, Sister Xiaowu, I'm so sorry!"
Within Tang San's mental world, the Azure Bull Python wept uncontrollably upon witnessing this scene.
If he could, he really wanted to go to the underworld with Sister Xiaowu.
But now he doesn't even have the right to die.
Perhaps because Tang San didn't respond to Xiao Wu, the Azure Bull Python now even resents Tang San.
"Would it kill you to agree to Sister Xiaowu's request at a time like this?" Although it was a bit unreasonable, the Azure Bull Python couldn't help but think that way.
Gu Xuan's gaze then fell upon the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the others.
Seeing Tang San's timid look, a hint of amusement flashed in Gu Xuan's eyes.
At only level 19, isn't Tang San a bit too weak?
How long does it take to become a god?
And what about Tang San's deep affection and loyalty?
Didn't he cause trouble for him back then because of Xiao Wu?
It's withered now!?
"Young Master Gu Xuan, my daughter is naughty and doesn't know the truth. Please forgive her and don't be angry with her."
Upon seeing this, Ning Fengzhi quickly stood up and bowed to Gu Xuan.
"Oh!"
Gu Xuan had no interest in saying anything to Ning Fengzhi. Instead, he glanced at Tang San and then looked away.
Ning Fengzhi's eyes darkened slightly; he had ultimately missed his chance.
"Thank you for your consideration, Young Master Gu."
Ning Fengzhi didn't seem embarrassed. He cupped his hands in greeting and sat down again.
Everyone looked at Ning Fengzhi's actions with extremely strange, or rather, gloating, expressions.
Their sect or family has a genius like Gu Xuan and a powerful grandfather like Gu Rong.
Even if Gu Xuan hadn't awakened his martial soul yet, and even if Gu Xuan were a good-for-nothing, they would stand by Gu Xuan's side without hesitation if their children dared to bully him.
For no other reason than the ancient banyan tree itself, they were willing to sacrifice their own family for the greater good.
However, Ning Fengzhi managed to side with his relatives regardless of right or wrong, which angered the peerless genius Gu Xuan and top experts like Gu Rong to the point of leaving.
They're really rich and powerful.
It's no wonder that he was able to quickly rebuild the Title Douluo's forces after Gu Rong left.
That's fucking awesome!
Despite being stared at by everyone with strange self-gaze, Ning Fengzhi didn't feel embarrassed. As long as he wasn't embarrassed, it was others who were.
Seeing that Ning Fengzhi's face showed no emotion, everyone felt somewhat disappointed, as if they regretted missing out on some big gossip.
"Ahem!"
Seeing that Gu Xuan had no intention of speaking, Dugu Bo coughed once after giving everyone enough time to discuss Ning Fengzhi, drawing everyone's attention back to him.
"Young Master, I know this 100,000-year-old soul beast is not quite worthy of you, but it is still a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form, which is a rare existence in the history of the continent."
Even if you don't kill them to absorb their soul rings and soul bones, keeping them by your side can still make them a decorative object or a pet.
Although it's not valuable, it's the best I can offer. Please don't find it lacking, young master.
Dugu Bo spoke with such conviction and fervor, as if he were only giving away some ordinary gifts.
That is indeed the case.
After learning that Gu Xuan could transform Soul Masters into higher-level Soul Beasts, Dugu Bo understood that Soul Rings were no longer important to Gu Xuan.
Or rather, a 100,000-year soul ring was no longer important to Gu Xuan.
Sometimes, you can even transform into a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast and obtain Soul Rings and Soul Bones simply by killing a slightly stronger Soul Douluo.
The little girl he gave him was priceless in other people's eyes, but to Gu Xuan, she was really just a rare vase or a pet.
But others don't know that.
Everyone gasped upon hearing Dugu Bo's speech.
The way you're saying it makes it sound like 100,000-year-old soul beasts are no different from wildflowers and weeds.
The Nine Hearts Begonia Sect has become so wealthy that it doesn't even care about 100,000-year-old soul beasts.
Or perhaps you, Dugu Bo, have become so lazy that you no longer care about a 100,000-year soul ring?
The astonished, envious, and even slightly disdainful gazes of the crowd were all directed at Dugu Bo.
Why did this spendthrift give away such a good thing?
Seeing that Dugu Bo and the others wished they could take his place and hide Xiao Wu away, waiting for their own breakthrough or that of their future descendants before giving her a soul ring.
That would be wonderful!
But Dugu Bo actually gave it away like that!
Even our ancestors shouldn't send gifts like this, let alone the young master!
