Chapter 121: Soul Saint's Diary and the Radiant Elemental Dragon
White World, Spirit Hall.
"Didn't you say you felt nothing back then? What's with this reaction?"
Seeing Yu Xiaogang's appearance on the heavenly curtain, Bibi Dong understood perfectly well that she had been deceived.
He obviously had feelings early on, yet he pretended to be completely normal.
Back then, it made Bibi Dong doubt whether she was truly charming, or if she was just being too narcissistic.
"It's just normal shyness."
"Think about it, a beautiful girl like you suddenly comes close and talks to me like that. Any boy would feel shy."
Yu Xiaogang was still being stubborn, but unfortunately for him, Bibi Dong wasn't so easily fooled this time.
"Hmph, keep being stubborn then. Since the heavenly curtain is showing our past, I'm going to remember every scene. I refuse to believe you can keep finding excuses for yourself!"
Bibi Dong put her hands on her hips, though her uncontrollably upturned corners of her mouth made it clear she was in a very good mood.
She had always thought her husband fell in love with her very late. Now, she discovered he might have liked her long before she even realized it.
This feeling filled her heart, making Bibi Dong feel as if she had eaten a sweet candy.
[The film continues...]
[The process of Lin Lang absorbing the Soul Bone didn't take too long. As a Soul Bone that had already been absorbed once, it wouldn't bring Lin Lang any increase in Soul Power.]
[It would simply make Lin Lang's body stronger and grant him a Soul Bone skill.]
[Even so, Lin Lang was already very satisfied.]
[This was a ten-thousand-year Soul Bone, something many Titled Douluo don't even possess, yet he now had one.]
[Lin Lang was now very glad he hadn't refused the Sect Master when he was assigned this mission. Otherwise, such good fortune wouldn't have come his way.]
[Yue Guan and Gui Mei looked at Lin Lang with envy, especially Yue Guan, who wanted a Soul Bone so badly.]
[Unfortunately, Bibi Dong couldn't make the decision.]
["Sigh, I'll just have to wait. When my strength breaks through to Titled Douluo, perhaps His Holiness the Pope will reward me with a Soul Bone, considering my and Old Ghost's Martial Soul Fusion skill."]
[Yue Guan thought to himself.]
[Earlier, after discovering the Blood Hand Boss had two Soul Bones, the group separately checked the other corpses to see if they had any.]
[As expected, none of the others had a single Soul Bone.]
[Afterwards, the group rummaged through the storage soul tools carried by the Blood Hand members.]
[Apart from some daily necessities and gold coin, there were just various miscellaneous items.]
[If not for the two Soul Bones, the group might have been interested in searching through the Blood Hand's belongings for anything that caught their eye.]
[But the appearance of the Soul Bones made them glance at these things, finding them utterly dull for the moment.]
[After opening another storage soul tool belonging to a Soul Saint, Yu Xiaogang pulled out a large pile of notebooks from it.]
[Opening one, he found it was actually that Soul Saint's diary.]
[The diary's contents recorded the Soul Saint's years of travels across the Douluo Continent, as well as his various experiences after becoming an assassin.]
["This guy is interesting, he actually kept a diary?" Yue Guan raised an eyebrow, saying with some surprise.]
[Generally, people who live on the edge, licking blood from blades, are the type to live for the moment.]
[While those who keep diaries are the type who have a sense of ritual about life.]
["Perhaps he never intended to become an assassin in the beginning," Yu Xiaogang said, then immersed his attention in the diary.]
[He was very interested in this kind of travelogue record.]
[By skimming a few entries, Yu Xiaogang learned that the diary's owner started writing because he felt it was a shame to travel the Douluo Continent without recording anything.]
[Thus, starting from a town named Thousand Peaks City, the diary recorded the Soul Saint's observations and experiences from his travels across the continent.]
[For example, his impressions visiting the Star Luo Empire's capital, Star Luo City, his experiences in the Extreme North, and some events from his sea voyages.]
[Looking at the diary's contents, Yu Xiaogang felt he had found a treasure.]
[Such records of a strong expert's interesting travels were rare. They could not only broaden his knowledge but also provide some entertaining stories.]
[So, without hesitation, Yu Xiaogang gathered all the diaries into his arms, planning to read them properly later.]
[None of the three—Lin Lang and the others—stopped Yu Xiaogang's actions.]
[As Soul Douluo, they had also traveled across the continent in their early years. If they were to write diaries, they could produce a heap of interesting content themselves.]
[So, they had no interest in these diaries at all.]
[As for Bibi Dong.]
["If you find them interesting after you finish reading, you have to lend them to me," Bibi Dong said.]
[She also liked reading, but she preferred reading interesting books.]
["Don't worry, I'll let you read them when I'm done," Yu Xiaogang said, putting most of the diaries into his own storage soul tool and keeping one in his hand to read immediately.]
["July 2nd, Sunny"]
["Finally arrived at the Heaven Dou Empire's Heaven Dou City today. It's very prosperous. After entering the city, I came to a small tavern called the Drunken Dream Tavern. The side dishes here are quite good, but the wine is terrible."]
[...]
["August 17th, Cloudy"]
["Never thought I'd see people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Clear Sky Sect almost come to blows at the Auction house yesterday. What a pity they didn't actually fight, or I could have enjoyed the spectacle."]
["I managed to buy a treasure map at the Auction. Interesting. I wonder what treasure I'll find following this map."]
[...]
["September 25th, Sunny"]
["Damn it! Actually ran into a nine-thousand-year-old Radiant Elemental Dragon in the Sunset Forest. Can't win, absolutely can't win! What's the point of having this treasure map then?"]
["Who would have thought that I, a dignified Soul Emperor, would be chased and beaten by a Soul Beast not even ten thousand years old. Is that reasonable?"]
["Come to think of it, if I could possess that move of the Radiant Elemental Dragon as a Soul Skill, wouldn't I also be practically invincible like it?"]
[...]
[Flipping through the diary, Yu Xiaogang read about the Soul Saint's experiences when he was still a Soul Emperor, arriving at the Heaven Dou Empire's Heaven Dou City.]
[At first, Yu Xiaogang didn't pay much attention.]
[But when Yu Xiaogang saw the record of that nine-thousand-year-old Radiant Elemental Dragon in the diary, he couldn't stay calm.]
