Lеоn was a bit соnflicted. Should hе go find Dugu Yаn nеxt?
Оf coursе.
Тhеre wаs no greаt rush fоr Dugu Bo's immоrtal herbs. As long as hе intеrсeptеd thеm beforе Таng Sаn, it wоuld bе fine. Тherе was still рlentу оf time.
Whаt hаpрened next would deреnd оn thе rеwаrds givеn fоr thе group сhat's uрgrade.
If thе rеwаrds wеrе good еnоugh, then nоthing would bе a рroblem. If the rewards were just avеrаge, thеn he wоuld havе to get thе immortal herbs as soon as possible to speed through the novice period.
Around noon.
Bibi Dong and the others in the group chat were still going back and forth. They wanted Bibi Dong to post a photo, and Bibi Dong also wanted to see who they were.
No one posted a selfie, sharing a bunch of food pictures instead.
Leon finished his cultivation and ambled over to the vicinity of the cafeteria early.
Finally.
He saw that pink figure.
Little white rabbit, so white, so bright~
Two ears standing straight up~
Loves to eat carrots, loves to eat greens~
So cute when it hops and skips~
"Little San."
Xiao Wu spotted Leon from afar and ran over happily, holding out her arms to catch the little monkey as it leaped into her embrace, her face filled with joy.
The little monkey was a bit dazed, blinking its eyes in confusion, not understanding why its friend was so happy.
Xiao Wu, on the other hand, couldn't help but share her joy. "Little San, from today on, you can eat whatever you want. I'll make sure you eat until you're stuffed every day."
Leon stood to the side, cursing inwardly: Damn little rabbit, you evil nouveau riche. Do you even know how to spend twenty thousand gold soul coins?
Leon put on a puzzled expression and asked, "Little rabbit, did you find some money?"
Hearing this, Xiao Wu looked at Leon, stunned for a moment, before replying, "How did you know I found money... Well, I guess you could say I really did find some money."
"Don't worry."
"As long as Sister Xiao Wu has a bite to eat, I won't forget about you."
Leon said with a straight face:
"Really?"
"How about you lend me five hundred gold soul coins to see your strength?"
Uh.
Xiao Wu looked at Leon strangely upon hearing his words. She hesitated for a moment before asking, "You're not that Leon, are you?"
Leon shook his head, looking at Xiao Wu with a bewildered expression, "I don't know what you're talking about!"
Seeing this, Xiao Wu began to suspect she had guessed wrong. Still, she pulled Leon to a deserted spot and directly handed him two thousand gold soul coins.
"A reward from Sister Xiao Wu. No need to pay it back."
Well, damn.
Nice, very nice.
Leon didn't stand on ceremony. He took the gold soul coins and quietly put them into his Spatial Ring, then flattered her, "Sister Xiao Wu, you're so loyal!"
To be fair.
Although Xiao Wu had obtained the gold soul coins from Leon's chat group, it didn't really have much to do with Leon. This was the fee Ning Rongrong had given Xiao Wu to win her over.
The fact that Xiao Wu was willing to share it with him was quite a show of loyalty.
Leon was quite satisfied with this. Seeing as you're so decent, little rabbit, I can help you out in the future. I won't let you sacrifice yourself to become a Spirit Ring and a pendant.
With their little transaction complete, the human and the rabbit returned to the cafeteria and went to the second floor to eat.
From the shadows.
Tang San watched the intimate pair from a distance.
His heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife.
Leon, oh, Leon!
Originally, for the sake of us being from the same hometown, I didn't plan to be heavy-handed, but you are truly too ill-mannered.
Is Xiao Wu someone you can lay your hands on?
You have already found your path to death.
...
That evening.
The members of the group were all getting ready to rest when they saw a message from Hu Liena.
[Hu Liena: Teacher, I've arrived. You don't have to worry about my safety anymore.]
[Bibi Dong: ?]
[Bibi Dong: Where have you arrived?]
[Leon: What have you been up to?]
[Little Princess: Where did you run off to?]
[Yan Yan: Hu Liena, are you sure you can escape from Bibi Dong's grasp?]
[Hu Liena: I, Hu Liena, will absolutely not stand by and watch Tang San rise, watch Tang San destroy our Spirit Hall. So I came out to find Qian Renxue.]
[I Am an Orphan: You're not so stupid this time.]
The Crown Prince's Manor.
A smile touched the corners of Qian Renxue's lips.
For Hu Liena to be able to make a decisive decision and rush over from Spirit City overnight showed that she wasn't beyond saving.
Bibi Dong, on the other hand, was truly hopeless.
"Uncle Snake."
Qian Renxue called out, and the voice of the Snake Lance Douluo came from the darkness outside the window.
"Young Master, what are your orders?"
Qian Renxue said in a low voice:
"Hu Liena has come from Spirit City to find me. Send our people to secretly provide support for her."
"Yes, Young Master."
Although the Snake Lance Douluo found it a bit strange, he didn't ask any questions.
[Bibi Dong: Hu Liena! Are you trying to rebel?]
[Bibi Dong: Get your ass back to Spirit City immediately!]
[Little Princess: Hahaha!]
[Yan Yan: It's over! Bibi Dong, your disciple Hu Liena isn't planning to protect you anymore. This must be so infuriating.]
[My Surname is Not Yu: Hu Liena, calm down.]
[Number Nine: This group chat is getting more and more interesting.]
[Hu Liena: I, Hu Liena, vow to protect Teacher Bibi Dong with my life.]
[Hu Liena: Leon, are you there? If Little Xue doesn't believe me, what should I say to make her believe me?]
Nuoding Academy.
Leon found this even more amusing.
Doesn't believe you?
Qian Renxue has probably already taken action.
She's in the group too!
Can't you see that big 'I Am an Orphan' right there?
[Leon: Qian Renxue will believe you, but I still have to remind you all, Tang San is not easy to kill.]
[Leon: Tang San has Tang Hao secretly protecting him. Tang Hao's strength is no joke. The two Titled Douluo by Qian Renxue's side are definitely no match for Tang Hao.]
[Leon: Furthermore, the Clear Sky Hammer's Self-Created Spirit Ability, Ring Explosion, is terrifying. Tang Hao's ninth Spirit Ring is a hundred-thousand-year one. If he goes all out and explodes all nine rings, he can unleash power approaching that of a god.]
[Leon: Of course, Tang Hao won't explode all nine rings unless he's forced into a dead end, but even if he just explodes a few, it's not something an ordinary Titled Douluo can withstand.]
[Leon: Remember to use your brain.]
[Hu Liena: Okay, thank you. Teacher, I have to go for now. I'm going to find Little Xue.]
[Bibi Dong: Hu Liena!!]
[Bibi Dong: Hu Liena, you come back! Come back!]
The Pope's Bedchambers.
Bibi Dong was about to explode with anger.
Damn it!
This little vixen is so infuriating.
She didn't even say a word to me and actually ran off to Heaven Dou City to find Little Xue?
Do you even have any respect for me, your teacher?
What on earth are you protecting!
When you get back, I'm locking you in the secret chamber.
The Crown Prince's Manor.
Qian Renxue, however, was stunned.
Clear Sky Hammer?
Exploding all nine rings?
Power approaching that of a god?
Damn it.
How could there be such a huge obstacle?
Qian Renxue felt annoyed and agitated.
If that was the case, she couldn't kill Tang San with the power she currently controlled. She would need to mobilize the power of the Spirit Hall of Worship.
[Little Princess: The Clear Sky Hammer's Self-Created Spirit Ability is that powerful?]
[Yan Yan: Ring Explosion?]
[Number Nine: No wonder the Clear Sky Clan is the number one sect in the world, and the Clear Sky Hammer is the number one Tool Martial Soul.]
[I Am an Orphan: Leon, can you briefly explain more about the Clear Sky Hammer?]
