Chapter 17
: A Dramatic Plot Twist, Yu Xiaogang Becomes Crippled
Tang Hao didn't pay any attention to the little kid squatting a hundred meters away by the roadside and continued to quietly follow behind Tang San to protect him.
Finally, another hour passed.
Fang Yuan finally met his target.
A cute girl wearing a pink short skirt, bunny ears, and a scorpion braid hopped over.
Fang Yuan's eyes immediately lit up.
As you channel your soul power, a dazzling golden light emanates from your body. Your already good looks become even more striking after your martial soul transforms into the Radiant Phoenix martial soul, and your aura is pure and holy, accentuated by the pair of golden wings behind you.
As Fang Yuan's first soul ring, the Thousand-Year Soul Ring, lit up, he used his first soul skill. Hundreds of golden feathers formed arrows, trailing streaks of golden light, and shot towards Xiao Wu at incredible speed.
Xiao Wu's rabbit ears twitched as she looked over. Upon seeing the attack aimed at her, she immediately tried to dodge. She was a Soft Bone Rabbit transformed into a human, and her body possessed astonishing flexibility.
With his waist bent almost in half, his body formed an incredible posture, dodging the attacks aimed at vital points.
However, due to the abundance of golden feathers, it still sustained some external injuries, with wounds on its arms, forearms, and legs, and bright red blood dripping onto the ground.
"Who are you, and why are you trying to kill me?" Xiao Wu looked at Fang Yuan, who had attacked her, with some confusion.
I don't know the other person, so why would they want to kill me?
If Fang Yuan were an adult, Xiao Wu could guess that he was a Title Douluo who had accidentally seen through her identity as a 100,000-year-old soul beast and wanted to hunt her down to obtain her soul rings and soul bones.
But Fang Yuan could tell at a glance that the child looked just like himself.
"..."
Fang Yuan had no intention of wasting words and continued his attack, relying on his flight advantage and long-range bombardment with his soul skills. Soon, Xiao Wu was covered in wounds.
Fang Yuan only stopped after Xiao Wu fell to the ground and was unable to resist.
He has only just become a Soul Master, and it's impossible for Xiao Wu to sacrifice herself for him now.
Fang Yuan intends to keep Xiao Wu alive until his physical condition can withstand a 100,000-year soul ring before killing her.
Xiao Wu lay on the ground, seriously injured. She never expected that her plan to infiltrate the human world, increase her strength, and avenge her mother would be aborted at the very first step.
She stared intently at the boy walking towards her, her gaze filled with both hatred and confusion.
To ensure safety, Fang Yuan, under Xiao Wu's hostile gaze, swiftly and decisively knocked her unconscious with a chop to the neck.
··························
Fang Yuan locked Xiao Wu up, intending to concentrate on his cultivation, when suddenly...
A loud bang echoed from Notting City. Looking into the distance, several enormous Martial Soul True Forms could be seen surrounding something, seemingly about to attack it.
Then, a Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul True Form engraved with blood-red runes suddenly appeared in the center. With a sweeping motion, it directly knocked away those Martial Soul True Forms that wanted to surround it, along with the Soul Masters on them.
A massive surge of soul power suddenly spread out, sending the Spirit Hall deacons around Tang Hao, who were attempting to continue their attacks, flying.
"Spirit Hall, you relentlessly pursue and try to harm my son Tang San. I, Tang Hao, am sworn enemies with you and will avenge this!" Tang Hao swung the Clear Sky Hammer in one hand while holding the heavily injured and unconscious Tang San in the other.
At the same time, Tang Hao quickly flew towards the outskirts of Notting City in an attempt to escape the encirclement and trap, leaving behind this message.
Fang Yuan was too far away, and apart from the last sentence, which was a roar amplified by soul power, he couldn't hear anything else clearly.
However, just by watching Tang Hao escape with Tang San, he understood that the plot had changed.
but……
"The Spirit Hall people actually knew that Tang San and Tang Hao were here."
Fang Yuan stared in the direction Tang Hao had fled, lost in thought.
When Fang Yuan saw the missing person notices looking for him, he guessed that someone might have obtained simulated memories and was therefore looking for him.
The fact that the Spirit Hall was now besieging Tang Hao and Tang San further confirmed Fang Yuan's suspicions.
At the very least, someone in the Spirit Hall must have obtained the simulated memories, but it's unknown whether it was Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, or both of them.
"I knew it! Free things are the most expensive!" Fang Yuan rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.
This is also why he hasn't dared to use an emulator for the past two months.
····························
Now his "wanted poster" has spread everywhere.
If it's Qian Renxue who awakens her memories, that's fine; she can just use a pseudonym, and it won't have much of an impact.
If it's Bibi Dong...
You should know that the first martial soul he simulated awakened was the Phoenix of Light. As long as the martial soul is exposed, Bibi Dong will quickly associate it with him, and the alias will not work.
Inside the room, Xiao Wu, who was bound, was trembling and curled up because of the auras of several Title Douluos outside, showing no intention of escaping at all.
And in Notting College
Yu Xiaogang was seriously injured and was being rushed to the hospital by the dean of Notting Academy.
The dean couldn't understand how Yu Xiaogang dared to interfere in the affairs of a Title Douluo powerhouse.
After a day and a night of emergency treatment, Yu Xiaogang survived, but he was left with a disability in both legs.
At this moment, he lay in his room, looking at his motionless, numb legs with a gloomy gaze, "How dare they?"
Yu Xiaogang was somewhat incredulous. You see, although he rarely used the papal decree that Bibi Dong had given him because she had abandoned him, he was almost always successful when he did use it.
Especially when facing the Spirit Hall, seeing this token is like seeing the Spirit Hall's papal decree. No matter how strong the Spirit Hall members are, even if they are titled Douluo, they will obediently follow orders.
This time, however, it failed, and Yu Xiaogang paid a heavy price for it, almost being killed by the aftershocks of the battle between the Title Douluo.
but……
Even if Yu Xiaogang hates him, what can he do?
He was just a mere Great Soul Master and couldn't avenge himself. Although his father was a Title Douluo, he would never risk his life against the Spirit Hall for the sake of his almost abandoned, useless son.
"Could it be...?"
"Should we ask Bibi Dong for help?"
Only Bibi Dong, as the Pope of the Spirit Hall, has the ability to avenge him.
However, Yu Xiaogang's inherent pride as a direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family made it difficult for him to bow his head, especially to a woman he saw as having abandoned and humiliated him...
"Perhaps this was all within Bibi Dong's expectations. This was a tactic she used to force herself into this situation, using Tang San and Tang Hao's affair to severely injure herself and force herself to ask for her help..."
The more Yu Xiaogang thought about it, the more convinced he became. He clenched his fist and slammed it hard on the bed. "Damn it!"
Bibi Dong has become so ruthless; she is no longer the Dong'er I remember.
