Douluo Reborn: The Silver Dragon Returns, but Regrets End

Chapter 9 Final Disappointment with Ouyang Zixin

Soul beast!

Ye Yingluo's face darkened. Although the method Wu Changkong proposed was feasible in theory, it was difficult to implement in reality.

Not to mention other things, just considering the current number of soul beasts, it is almost a luxury to see one, let alone hunt a suitable one.

Now, only some big families can own soul beast spirit rings. This is not only a matter of money, but also family background and family strength are indispensable.

Because now to obtain soul beast spirit rings, you must first buy the Spirit Pagoda. This must be a certain social status, and then a lot of money. After all, the current Star Dou Great Forest is basically guarded by the Spirit Pagoda, and the Star Dou Fortress is under their control.

In name, they control the spirit beasts so that they do not interfere with the human world, but they secretly capture spirit beasts for research. Moreover, the children of large families can also pay to enter and obtain spirit rings. It can only be said that the spirit beasts in some of the Star Dou Great Forest are basically the "private products" of the Spirit Pagoda, and are tools for them to make profits.

The difficulty of this was not only known to Ye Yingluo, but also to Lin Xiuran himself. Even though he now had 10 million federal coins, it was just a drop in the bucket. It would probably be difficult to get a hundred-year soul beast.

One million federal coins could buy a hundred-year soul, not to mention a real hundred-year soul beast. It was extremely difficult to capture or keep it in captivity. Not to mention the money that should be spent, those were all priceless and were prepared by the big families for their children's soul masters.

Lin Xiuran smiled bitterly, looked at Ye Yingluo, and said, "Teacher Ye, it's okay, there is always a way."

"But..." Ye Yingluo couldn't bear it after all. After all, as a teacher, how could she do nothing when seeing her students like this? But she couldn't do these things after all.

"It doesn't necessarily mean obtaining the soul ring of a soul beast."

At this time, Wu Changkong's leisurely voice came, interrupting Ye Yingluo's thoughts.

She looked at Wu Changkong in surprise and asked hurriedly, "Teacher Wu, didn't you say that only spirit beast spirit rings can be used?"

Wu Zhangkong glanced at her with cold eyes and said coldly: "I didn't say that."

Indeed, Wu Changkong only said that there is a method called soul beast spirit ring, but he did not say that this is the only method.

Ye Yingluo spread her hands helplessly, then said seriously: "Teacher Wu, please tell me quickly, this concerns the child's future."

Wu Zhangkong cast his icy gaze towards Lin Xiuran and said calmly, "In fact, it is very likely that the soul's power is insufficient. If one is not enough, maybe absorbing a few more will allow you to awaken a soul ring again, and the quality may be relatively high."

If that was the case, then he could still make plans, after all, he could still afford the Hundred Year Spirit Ring. He just happened to have 10 million federal coins given by the elders, so he could try a few first.

"Thank you, Teacher Wu."

After solving Lin Xiuran’s problem, Wu Zhangkong walked away again in a very cool manner.

Ye Yingluo looked at his back and snorted in dissatisfaction: "Damn it, who told you to be so cold!"

Of course, she was still very grateful that Wu Changkong could help Lin Xiuran.

"It's okay, Xiuran. At least there is hope. Besides, I've never seen Teacher Wu talk so much at once. What he said this time is more than all the words I've seen him say before." Ye Yingluo was secretly shocked. She didn't understand Wu Changkong's style of doing things at all. Although she liked him very much before, now that she was rejected, she put her focus on her students.

To be honest, Lin Xiuran was also surprised that Wu Changkong could explain it to him so carefully. After all, he was not a student of Class Zero, and the other party had always been so indifferent to everything.

After finishing today's classes, Lin Xiuran wanted to go directly to the East China Sea Spirit Pagoda again to buy another soul and give it a try. Anyway, he had enough money.

Originally, Lin Xiuran planned to take a taxi directly, after all, he had enough money now. However, just as he arrived at the school gate, he saw that familiar yet unfamiliar figure again.

"Sister Zi Xin, what do you want to talk to me about?" Lin Xiuran looked at the smiling girl in front of him. She was completely different from the last time, as if she had regained her previous enthusiastic self.

Ouyang Zixin smiled and said, "Brother Xiuran, I heard that today is your birthday?"

Birthday?

Lin Xiuran was slightly stunned. To be honest, he had forgotten about it. No wonder the clan elder came to see him today. It turned out that today was his birthday.

Ouyang Zixin continued: "Let's go celebrate. I've already chosen a place."

Looking at Ouyang Zixin's smile that seemed to come from the heart, Lin Xiuran was a little dazed for a moment. The way she scolded him for Xu Xiaoyu two days ago and the warm smile she had always shown him before kept repeating made him unable to tell the truth from the false.

However, in the end, the smile occupied most of his face. After all, before this, Ouyang Zixin had helped him a lot, and no matter what the starting point was, he should thank her.

Lin Xiuran actually knew that this was most likely a trap set by Xu Xiaoyu, but he didn't know what he was going to frame her for. But it didn't matter, he would just treat it as the last time.

If Ouyang Zixin really celebrated his birthday, it would be fine, but if it was still for Xu Xiaoyu, then this would be the last time, and he would rather not contact Ouyang Zixin again in the future.

Lin Xiuran still agreed to Ouyang Zixin.

Ouyang Zixin brought a driver with her. Although the Ouyang family was not as good as the Xu family, it was much better than ordinary families. They naturally had a full-time driver.

The soul-guided car is much faster than the soul-guided bus, and the driver is very skilled. In less than half an hour, the two arrived at a garden in the suburbs.

Donghai City is the second largest city on the coast. In the Tianhai Alliance, the overall urban economy is second only to Tianhai City. It can be said that almost every place is well built, and the suburbs are designed in a garden style with many very elegant pavilions. The greening is very successful, very suitable for outings, and it is also normal to come here to celebrate birthdays.

Soon, under Ouyang Zixin's guidance, the two came to a beautifully manicured garden. It was close to the river and next to a small forest. It looked very quiet. But for some reason, it was too quiet.

After the construction of Donghai City in the suburbs was completed, many gardens were rented or bought out. Those like this one, which were carefully trimmed, all had owners.

But Lin Xiuran knew who this place belonged to. It was bought by Xu Junwen when he celebrated Xu Xiaoyu's birthday one year. It was also considered an asset of the Xu family.

Coming here, Lin Xiuran smiled bitterly. He had basically guessed some things and was not too sad. After all, he was mentally prepared.
