Douluo: Yu Hao Pan Tang San

Chapter 65 75.76. Are you willing to be deprived of your soul power in her place?
"This trial has two rounds. The first round asks about feelings, and the second round tests feelings!"

"In the first round, the Eternal Love Abyss will question you about your feelings. Only those who answer sincerely from the heart can pass the first stage of the love test. Those who truly love someone will be eligible to receive the rewards of this trial. Those who deceive with lies will be punished by the great adventure."

"In the second round, the space allows your loved ones to decide whether to grant the rewards of this space."

Next, space imprinted the rules into the minds of the three people like a brand.

"You will have enough time to think. You will decide the start of the trial. When all three of you shout into space: 'Start the trial,' then the trial will begin."

Finally, the ethereal voice died down, and the faces of the three people became clearer, and they could hear each other's voices.

"To love someone sincerely, to answer him/her sincerely, in other words, the trial is to test our love?" Flanders murmured, and he subconsciously looked at Liu Erlong.

Unfortunately, the goddess's gaze did not fall on him, but on Yu Xiaogang.

"If Xiaogang can get the Golden Dragon Fruit, it will definitely help him solve the problem of his martial soul mutation. Xiaogang loves me. As long as it's the second round, I can decide to give the Golden Dragon Fruit to Yu Xiaogang. He will definitely thank me." Liu Erlong said.

Yu Xiaogang's attention was not on Flanders and Liu Erlong, but he frowned and thought about the rules of the trial.

Only those who truly love and answer sincerely can pass the level and receive rewards.

The person I love, he began to reflect on himself, who exactly did he love, Yu Xiaogang found that he could not answer for a while.

The two women with whom he had established relationships in his life were Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong.

But does he really love them? It seems not. His purpose of getting close to Bibi Dong is to use her talents to make profits for himself, and his purpose of getting close to Liu Erlong is to use her to achieve his goal of revenge on Yu Luomian.

Is he greedy for their bodies? Yes, he is greedy. Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong are both beautiful female soul masters. How can Yu Xiaogang not be greedy? If he wasn't greedy, he wouldn't pretend to be ignorant and want to marry Liu Erlong when he knew that she was his cousin.

But is this love? He racked his brains but could not answer whether his feelings for these two women were love.

But if I don’t love Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong, who should I love?

When Yu Xiaogang thought of the rules here, he broke out in a cold sweat. Of course, he, Yu Xiaogang, could answer Wen Qingyuan's questions sincerely, but a sincere answer was useless. He had to have someone he truly loved to get the reward. This alone was enough to block his chance of getting the Golden Dragon Fruit.

Could it be that this time I have to watch the Golden Dragon Fruit fly away from my eyes again, Yu Xiaogang thought painfully, and then his eyes were determined: No, I will never allow it, I will never allow myself to lose the Golden Dragon Fruit again. I was born to stand at the top of the continent and look down on all living beings. I don’t want to be a waste. I must love. No matter what, Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong must love one of them, and it must be sincere.

Between Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong, Yu Xiaogang quickly chose Liu Erlong. Although he firmly believed that Bibi Dong still had feelings for him, after all, he had hurt her not long ago, so he decided to choose Liu Erlong who still loved him deeply.

Yu Xiaogang closed his eyes and began to tell himself: I love Liu Erlong, I love Liu Erlong, I love Liu Erlong.
After a long moment, Yu Xiaogang opened his eyes and looked at Liu Erlong lovingly. His eyes were firm and determined. He raised his head and said to the trial space, "Let the trial begin."

On the other side, Flender and Liu Erlong heard Yu Xiaogang's answer and, as if receiving a signal, shouted to the trial space, "Let's begin the trial."

"The trial officially begins." The ethereal voice came again.

Flanders, Liu Erlong, and Yu Xiaogang were once again shrouded in fog, unable to see each other or hear each other's voices.

First, it was Flanders' place. The Yin-Yang fish under his feet lit up with an emerald green beam of light, which enveloped Flanders, making him the most conspicuous presence in the trial space.

"First question, do you have a lover?" The voice from the trial space came into Flanders' mind.

Do I have a lover? Flanders looked sadly in the direction of Liu Erlong, then shook his head and said, "No."

"Second question, do you have someone you love? If so, who is it?"

Flanders said affectionately: "Yes, it's Liu Erlong."

The next moment, the fog that enveloped Liu Erlong dissipated, and she appeared in Flanders' sight. The light under Liu Erlong's feet also lit up, turning into a fiery red beam of light. Flanders and Liu Erlong could hear each other's voices and see each other's faces.

"After hearing his answer just now, do you love him?" the voice asked Liu Erlong.

Liu Erlong looked at Flender with an apologetic look, then shook her head and said to the voice, "I don't love you."

After hearing Liu Erlong's answer, Flanders' eyes became even darker.

The voice turned to Flanders and asked, "Are you willing to make any sacrifice for the one you love?"

"Yes!" said Flanders.

"Then, the Trial Space wants to cut off one of the arms of the person you love. You can avoid it, but the price is that you will bear it all on her behalf. Are you willing?" asked the Trial Space.

As soon as he finished speaking, the divine power turned into a sharp knife and was placed on Liu Erlong's right arm.

"What!" Liu Erlong and Flanders were shocked.

Liu Erlong was furious. She shouted at the space: "Why are you forcing us to make a choice? Boss Fu, don't listen to him. If you want to chop, chop my arm."

Flanders looked at Liu Erlong, his heart warmed, and he shouted to the trial space: "I do."

The next moment, the knife on Liu Erlong's arm turned towards Flanders, slashed at Flanders, and cut off his right arm.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh——" Flanders knelt down and screamed, covering his wound.

"Boss Fu," Liu Erlong shouted angrily at the trial space, "Whatever you're hiding behind, get out here! Hiding behind people's backs and attacking them is nothing special. If you dare, come after me. I'm afraid you're not Liu Erlong."

The next moment, a lightning snake as thick as a python fell from the void and hit Liu Erlong, electrocuting her whole body until it was pitch black and emitted the aroma of barbecue.

"Erlong." Flanders, who was unable to protect himself, was still worried about Liu Erlong.

"I'm sorry, Boss Fu!" Liu Erlong looked at Flanders guiltily. She knew Boss Fu's feelings for her, but she couldn't erase the mark of that little flat-headed man from her heart.

"Offending the Trial Space will result in a lightning strike once. If you do this three times, you will be killed!" The cold and merciless voice from the Trial Space reached the ears of the three. Of the three, only Yu Xiaogang did not know what had just happened.

Immediately afterwards, the fog covered the area again, separating Liu Erlong and Flanders.

Before Liu Erlong could worry about Flanders' situation, the light enveloped Liu Erlong, restoring the charred surface of her body, but the internal injuries caused by the lightning strike did not recover.

"First question, do you have a lover?" the voice asked.

Liu Erlong said without hesitation: "Yes, it's Yu Xiaogang."

As soon as he finished speaking, the fog on the other side dissipated, and Flanders saw the tall and thin figure with a flat head standing on another platform.

"Xiaogang." Liu Erlong looked at Yu Xiaogang lovingly.

Yu Xiaogang also heard Bibi Dong's answer, and he looked at Liu Erlong with eyes full of love (self-hypnosis): "Erlong!"

"Second question, does he love you?" the voice asked. This time the question was not asked directly to Yu Xiaogang, but to Liu Erlong herself.

Liu Erlong looked at Yu Xiaogang with trust. She believed that she loved Yu Xiaogang deeply, so Yu Xiaogang must love her too. So she said, "Love!"

"So, are you willing to make any sacrifice for the one you love?" the voice inquired.

When Liu Erlong heard this, she remembered what happened to Flanders just now and became anxious. She quickly said, "I'm willing, but I beg you not to hurt Xiaogang."

However, the next moment, the martial soul Luo Sanpao was forcibly pulled out of Yu Xiaogang's body by a mysterious force in the trial space, and two yellow soul rings surrounded Luo Sanpao's body.

The sudden change made Yu Xiaogang subconsciously order Luo Sanpao, but to his horror, he had lost contact with Luo Sanpao and could not give orders to him.

"Then, the trial space will deprive your loved one of 20 levels of soul power. You can avoid it, but the price is that you will be deprived of 20 levels of soul power by the trial space on his behalf. Are you willing?" asked the trial space.

"No, don't deprive me of my soul power. This is the level I've reached by practicing 200 times more than others every day. Erlong, save me." The punishment of the trial space hit Yu Xiaogang's sore spot, and Yu Xiaogang couldn't hold it anymore.

He is only level 29. If he is deprived of his level 20 soul power, he will not even be considered a soul master. Moreover, other soul masters have dropped in realm, but they still have talent to cultivate to improve. As for him, he only has 0.5 level of innate soul power, and his golden age for cultivation is almost over. It is already very painful for Xiaogang that he cannot break through level 30 in his lifetime. If he can't even maintain level 29, Yu Xiaogang might as well die.

But the key to whether he can keep this level 20 soul power lies in Liu Erlong. He looked at Liu Erlong with anxious eyes, urging Liu Erlong to make a choice quickly.

Liu Erlong looked deeply at Yu Xiaogang and said to the trial space, "If you can do it, then come and deprive me of my soul power. If my soul power level drops, it will drop. I will still help you cultivate it. But don't deprive Xiaogang of his soul power. He cultivated it with great difficulty."

The next moment, Luo Sanpao returned to Yu Xiaogang's body. The feeling of his martial soul coming back made Yu Xiaogang breathe a sigh of relief. Then he looked at Liu Erlong and saw a scene that was enough to shock him.

Liu Erlong's fire dragon martial spirit was forcibly extracted, and five soul rings surrounded the red dragon's body.

The last black soul ring began to crack, then spread rapidly, and finally shattered like glass.

Liu Erlong's aura dropped ten levels in an instant, and a hint of weakness appeared on her face. However, this was not the end. The fourth soul ring began to break, and her soul power level dropped by ten levels.

Liu Erlong instantly fell from a level 51 Soul King to a level 31 Soul Master. Only then did the red dragon martial spirit return to Liu Erlong's body.

"Erlong." Yu Xiaogang looked at Liu Erlong in panic. He didn't expect that this trial space could really deprive others of their soul power and even give you soul rings.

However, Liu Erlong thought Yu Xiaogang was looking at her with concern. She gave Yu Xiaogang a forced smile and said, "Xiaogang, I'm fine. I just lost twenty levels. It's nothing serious."

As soon as Liu Erlong finished speaking, the fog separated the two again.

Seeing Liu Erlong's miserable state, Yu Xiaogang felt timid and sweaty, and he began to worry. What should he do if it was his turn next? What if this soul power stripping method was used again? What should he do? Should he quit?

Yu Xiaogang raised his head and looked longingly at the golden dragon fruit above the abyss. His heart became firm. He said to himself: No, I must not give up. This is the chance for my martial soul to evolve into a golden holy dragon. I must grab it at all costs.

The next moment, a shit-yellow light began to emanate from under Yu Xiaogang's feet, enveloping him. It was like the color of Luo Sanpao's fart, and his affection for Yu Xiaogang began.

"The first question is, do you have a lover?" asked the trial space.

Yu Xiaogang closed his eyes and hypnotized and brainwashed himself again: I love Liu Erlong, I love Liu Erlong
"Yes, it's Liu Erlong." Yu Xiaogang opened his eyes and said firmly.

The fog dissipated, and Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong met again. Liu Erlong looked at Yu Xiaogang with emotion.

"Second question, do you love her?" the voice asked Yu Xiaogang again.

"Love!" Yu Xiaogang said to himself.

"So, are you willing to make any sacrifice for the one you love?" the voice inquired.

Yu Xiaogang's heart clenched, but when he thought about the final reward being the Golden Dragon Fruit, he still gritted his teeth and answered, "Yes."

Liu Erlong's eyes were almost tearing when she looked at Yu Xiaogang.

The next moment, Liu Erlong felt her martial soul being forcibly pulled out of her body, and she once again lost control of her martial soul.

The Fire Dragon's spirit was imprisoned on the platform, with three yellow and purple spirit rings lingering around it, no longer rotating, like a biscuit that was about to be broken into pieces at any time.

"Then, the trial space will deprive the person you love of her level 29 soul power. You can avoid it, but the price is that you will be deprived of her level 29 soul power by the trial space on her behalf. Are you willing?" asked the trial space.

Hearing the question from the trial space, Yu Xiaogang almost vomited blood. I... I, Yu Xiaogang, am only level 29.

He has already hypnotized himself into believing that he truly loves Liu Erlong. Isn't that enough? In order to prove my love for her, do you have to deprive me of all my soul power before you will give up?
At this moment, Yu Xiaogang was caught in a dilemma. If there was no reward of the Golden Dragon Fruit, he would choose not to accept it without hesitation. However, the reward could only be obtained with someone he truly loved. In order to prove that he was in true love, he had to sacrifice his level 29 soul power. But even if he evolved into a Golden Holy Dragon, could he still become a soul master without soul power? Yu Xiaogang looked at Liu Erlong with an embarrassed look and a hint of expectation.

He hoped that Liu Erlong would be more proactive and take the punishment before he made a choice. In this way, he would not have to make such a dilemma, and at the same time he could tell the trial space that he loved Liu Erlong deeply, and thus be able to obtain the Golden Dragon Fruit.
