Chapter 8

: The Reunion of Siblings

"Gu Lie's performance was very composed, and he was right to tell me that his martial soul had indeed mastered quite a few self-created soul skills."

"By integrating earth-attribute soul power into the sand, we can affect the vision of those soul beasts and reduce their attack accuracy."

"There are also attacks that concentrate soul power on the dragon claws... If Gu Lie's cultivation level is higher, his attacks will also undergo a transformation. It is estimated that when his soul power reaches level 30, oh no, level 20, his attacks should be able to complete the transformation."

"Furthermore, although his attack power is not outstanding, in terms of his control and utilization efficiency of soul power, he is already comparable to the inner disciples of Shrek Academy."

In a room somewhere in the Spirit Pagoda, Leng Yaozhu watched the ancient hunters' battle on the screen with satisfaction, nodding repeatedly.

Although Gu Lie had told her that his martial soul made it easier to control his power and discover his own soul skills, Leng Yaozhu was not truly convinced that Gu Lie could fully realize the talent he had mentioned until Gu Lie underwent the test of actual combat.

As we all know, there are countless Soul Masters who claim to have hidden all sorts of secret weapons that can make the final decision at crucial moments, but most of them are just hiding their train tickets home.

Now, Leng Yaozhu can finally rest assured and no longer have any doubts about the path chosen by her personal disciple.

"But Na'er's impulsiveness... could it be because the scene triggered some painful, forgotten memories...?"

Leng Yaozhu was very satisfied with Gu Lie's performance, but Na'er's performance was somewhat unsatisfactory.

Although Na'er displayed an impeccable performance by ordinary standards when facing the group of wind baboons.

However, in Leng Yaozhu's view, Na'er's performance was indeed problematic, both in terms of her actions during the battle and her emotional outbursts before and after the battle.

However, although Leng Yaozhu's official relationship with Gu Lie and Na'er is that of teacher and student, in reality, she is like a mother to them. Therefore, the way she thinks about problems now is more like that of a mother.

Therefore, from a mother's perspective, Leng Yaozhu was more concerned not with Na'er's performance in battle, but with why Na'er's emotions were fluctuating.

After adopting Na'er, Leng Yaozhu casually used her soul skill to send a councilor's entire clan to see Tang San, while also carefully checking on Na'er's mental state.

She lost her memory for a long time, only remembering some things after she came to Shrek City.

According to Leng Yaozhu's examination, Na'er's body did not show any signs of external injury like Gu Lie's.

Therefore, there is probably only one reason why she lost her memory:

Na'er's past experiences were so terrifying that she chose to close herself off and forget those memories.

What kind of terrifying experience could have caused Nar to forget almost six years of her memories and come to Shrek City all alone?

Leng Yaozhu thought that she had vented all her anger by wiping out the entire clan of a federal senator and killing a few evil soul masters.

Now, she could only feel her fists hardening again.

Damn it, how did the Federation become like this!

Leng Yaozhu clenched her fists instinctively, but after seeing the scene on the screen, she finally let go.

Now that things have come to this, let's order food first... oh no, let's protect them properly so they can grow up smoothly.

As for those despicable bastards, green garlic... there's plenty of time for them to settle down.

Although the lifespan of a Limit Douluo is not infinite, it is more than enough to wait until Gu Lie and Na'er grow up.

When the time comes, the three of them will work together, and no matter how evil they are, they will be brought to justice!

Even if the mastermind behind it all is one emperor and two kings among the evil soul masters, she is confident that she can take them all down with Gu Lie and Na'er.

Leng Yaozhu calmed herself down and continued watching Gu Lie and Na'er's performance on the screen.

When she noticed Gu Lie's behavior, she couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"That rascal, even in the Ascension Platform he didn't forget to leave something for Na'er..."

"Na'er will be here soon, so we'll leave this century-old blue wolf to her."

Sensing Na'er approaching through the bulges on either side of his temples, Gu Lie abandoned his plan to use the Black Tiger (Slash to Death) Earth Dragon Heart-Piercing Technique on the last hundred-year-old blue wolf, and instead used a Double Peak Ear-Piercing Shot to knock it unconscious.

Then, facing the last five or six ten-year-old blue wolves, Gu Lie no longer held back, taking them down one by one with his claws and turning them all into warm spiritual energy.

His previous fighting style wasn't about attacking with all his might, because he was alone, leaving him little room for error.

But things are different now that Na'er is here. With a reliable partner, Gu Lie no longer needs to worry about anything and can unleash his powerful attack as much as possible.

"So the time limit has been increased by thirty years... But I always feel that my soul's use of this spiritual power seems a little different."

After absorbing all the spiritual energy, Gu Lie did a simple calculation and found that the number of years his soul ring had increased was slightly different from the calculation result based on the principle explained by Leng Yaozhu.

He also noticed that his golden koi spirit was absorbing spiritual energy as he absorbed that spiritual energy.

Clearly, it should have absorbed all the difference in between.

"That's fine then. If this spiritual energy can help it accumulate and eventually unleash its full potential, ultimately completing the crucial step of transforming into a dragon amidst the waves, then I'll take half of it, let alone a third of it."

Sensing the slight changes in his soul, Gu Lie nodded in satisfaction, then grabbed the unconscious hundred-year-old blue wolf and threw it in a certain direction.

"Na'er, here comes a century-old blue wolf!"

Before the blue wolf could regain its senses while flying through the air, a silver beam pierced its chest and then transformed into warm spiritual energy, which was completely absorbed by a silver figure.

"Brother, are you alright?"

With a single shot, Na'er transformed the century-old blue wolf into spiritual energy. She put away the Silver Dragon Spear and rushed to Gu Lie's side, anxiously looking at his face.

"Of course I'm fine, Na'er, how about you?"

Gu Lie also deactivated his Martial Soul Possession state, and his gaze swept over Na'er to check if she was injured.

After confirming that they were both safe and sound, the two calmed down and smiles returned to their faces.

"Let's go and explore the depths of the forest. The spirit beasts here aren't very old. We have limited time, and we can't afford to waste it on ten-year-old spirit beasts since we rarely get to come here."

Gently patting Na'er's head, Gu Lie naturally took her hand, and the two walked together into the depths of the forest.
