Chapter 140: Xiao Gang and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect Members Suffer a mental breakdown
Black World, Shrek Academy.
Everyone stared at the small mountain of Soul Bones in the heavenly curtain, their eyes wide and their mouths hanging open for a long time.
It must be said that this scene challenged their understanding of the world a bit too much.
Things like Soul Bones could actually be piled up like this; they wouldn't even dare to dream of such a thing.
"It hurts!!"
Ma Hongjun looked at his arm with a grimace, only to find that Oscar had pinched him.
"Ouch, what are you doing!"
Ma Hongjun glared at Oscar, demanding an explanation.
"I... I just wanted to see if this was a dream."
"Then pinch yourself! Why pinch me?"
Ma Hongjun shot a glare at Oscar, then turned his gaze back to the heavenly curtain, his eyes filled with distress.
Being able only to watch like this was simply torture for them.
"Why isn't our Shrek Academy near the Sunset Forest? If we were nearby, maybe these Soul Bones would belong to us."
Ma Hongjun's muttering reached everyone's ears, and immediately, everyone agreed in their hearts.
Especially Flender; he was thinking that if he had chosen the Sunset Forest as the academy's location back then, with his Martial Soul, he could have flown there at full speed right now, and maybe the Soul Bones would have been his.
But now, he could only watch helplessly.
For Flender, this was nothing short of psychological torture.
"Speaking of which, that Master over there is getting so many Soul Bones this time; he can complete a full set all at once."
"Do you think he'll refuse them again this time?"
Zhao Wuji walked up to Flender's side and asked.
"How should I know?"
Flender rolled his eyes.
If he had the mindset of the parallel world's Yu Xiaogang, he wouldn't be just a mere Soul Saint today.
After thinking this, Flender turned his somewhat worried gaze toward Yu Xiaogang.
He then saw Yu Xiaogang's expression, which was so twisted it was almost impossible to look at directly.
With just one glance, Flender withdrew his gaze and hurriedly patted his chest to soothe his frightened heart.
However, although he was startled by Yu Xiaogang's facial distortion, Flender surprisingly understood him at this moment.
No, it should be that everyone on the entire Douluo Continent who was watching the heavenly curtain could probably understand his current feelings if they put themselves in Yu Xiaogang's shoes.
Anyone who knew that their parallel world self could obtain a mountain of Soul Bones while they themselves got nothing would likely suffer a massive mental breakdown.
In fact, at this moment, Yu Xiaogang wasn't the only one breaking down.
The Sect Master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, Yu Yuanzhen, the group of Elders, and the various Guest Elders who had joined the Sect—not a single one of them could remain calm at this moment.
So many Soul Bones!!!
Originally, those Soul Bones should have belonged to their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect!!!
But now, heaven only knows if they can still get a piece of the pie from this event.
Furthermore, while participating in the struggle for the Soul Bones, the members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect would inevitably have to endure the scrutiny and ridicule of various forces and numerous powerhouses—a thought that made their scalps tingle.
But they couldn't afford not to go.
They even had to mobilize the entire Sect.
This was simply a journey of torment.
"Sect Master, when this is over, can I go beat someone up?"
The Second Elder clenched his fists and spoke through gritted teeth.
It was obvious who he wanted to beat; the fact that he hadn't cursed directly in front of Yu Yuanzhen was already a sign of extreme restraint.
"...When the time comes, we'll go together!"
Yu Yuanzhen took a deep breath, turned his head to look at the pile of Soul Bones in the heavenly curtain, and his heart shattered into pieces like glass again.
With so many Soul Bones, it would be easy to complete a full set for himself.
A fully equipped Titled Douluo with his family's inherited top-tier Beast Spirit, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon—if that actually happened, how strong would he become?
But now, it was all gone.
The other Elders and Guest Elders, hearing Yu Yuanzhen's words, also rubbed their hands together, looking ready to sharpen their blades against Xiao Gang.
As high-level members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, if that pile of Soul Bones had been obtained by them, each of them could have received several pieces.
But now they could only watch their parallel world selves obtain them.
And the one who caused them to lose these Soul Bones was Yu Xiaogang.
If they didn't personally give that fellow a brutal beating, they wouldn't be able to swallow this resentment!
Black World, Clear Sky Sect.
"...Should we go?"
The people who were just recently furious about Qian Xunji's evaluation of their Clear Sky Sect were now looking at each other in dismay, and then they all looked toward Tang Xiao.
"Going would mean announcing to the entire Douluo Continent that our Clear Sky Sect has come out of seclusion. Moreover, once the battle starts, the current situation of our Clear Sky Sect won't be able to stay hidden."
The Grand Elder emphasized.
The current Clear Sky Sect was far beyond what ordinary people could imagine.
Just in terms of Titled Douluo, they had a total of six.
Once exposed, it would definitely attract the wariness and targeting of the Spirit Hall.
"There's no need to go; we are too far away."
"By the time we reach the Sunset Forest, the battle over there will have long since ended."
Ultimately, Tang Xiao shook his head after a moment of contemplation.
His words were actually just an excuse; how could a conflict over such a massive amount of Soul Bones end so easily?
He simply didn't want the Clear Sky Sect to get involved in this dispute.
Tang Xiao had a premonition that as the heavenly curtain continued to broadcast, the Douluo Continent was destined for turbulence.
At this time, with their Clear Sky Sect's gates closed, they might even avoid being targeted. When those people finished fighting, they could then make their appearance and clean up the mess—wouldn't that be wonderful?
White World, Spirit Hall.
Hu Liena's mouth formed an 'O' shape as she looked at the pile of Soul Bones in the heavenly curtain in disbelief.
Not far away, Qian Daoliu and the others also rushed to the side of Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang following a wave of commotion.
"Donger, Xiaogang, did you two really obtain so many Soul Bones back then?"
Gold Crocodile Douluo found it hard to believe.
"How could it be fake? Didn't I say it when those Soul Saint and Soul Emperor assassins who wanted to kill Xiaogang appeared? Those few were treasure-delivering children."
"In this world, there simply are no people more handsome, more dashing, or more wonderful than them!"
Bibi Dong said with high Martial Souls.
Beside her, Yu Xiaogang nodded repeatedly in agreement.
Under normal circumstances, if his wife praised other men like this, Yu Xiaogang would certainly be unhappy.
But these few fellows were an exception.
Because they were worth it!
It was just that those fellows had died long ago; otherwise, Yu Xiaogang really would have wanted to repay them properly.
"But why have I never heard you mention this matter?"
Qian Daoliu asked with a frown.
"Um... why do you think I'm still able to sit here now?"
Bibi Dong paused for a moment, looking at Qian Daoliu as if he were a fool.
With so many Soul Bones discovered in that situation, it was only because she and Yu Xiaogang were already close by then.
Plus, she was the Disciple of the Pope of the Spirit Hall, which was why she survived.
If it had been anyone else, the grass on their grave would be as tall as a person by now!
After being swept by Bibi Dong's look, Qian Daoliu finally realized that he had asked an extremely stupid question.
"Hiss, looking at it this way, you were in extreme danger back then, Teacher."
"Dragon God His Eminence and His Excellency Thunder are father and son; if they had even a slight change of heart, Teacher, you wouldn't have made it out of that cave."
Hu Liena also realized this in hindsight.
"In fact, it really was just a hair's breadth away."
Bibi Dong said, then looked at Yu Xiaogang, her gaze becoming exceptionally soft.
Under Bibi Dong's gaze, Yu Xiaogang returned a smile.
The reason their relationship as a couple was so good, besides the unpredictable initial affection, was built up bit by bit through everything they had been through.
