Douluo Continent: Disciple Tang San, righteous yet evil

Chapter 49 Tang San: Xiao Wu is actually a Soul Beast!

Half a month flies by in a blink of an eye.

Beside the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, several jade bottles were placed in front of Lin Mu, containing various pills containing immense energy.

With the aid of the Qilin Fire, he has refined most of the immortal herbs, preserving their medicinal power to the maximum extent, and even merging them to produce a stronger effect.

"Little sister, here's a pill for you."

Lin Mu picked up one of the jade bottles and handed it to Tang San, saying, "If you absorb this pill, it should grant your Blue Silver Grass immunity to ice and fire."

"Thank you, Master."

Tang San excitedly accepted the pill. Over the past two weeks, he had been observing his master's alchemy process, so he naturally knew which immortal herbs had been incorporated into this pill.

The main ingredients are eight-pointed ice grass and fiery apricot blossom, with eight-petaled fairy orchid added for neutralization.

Without his master's alchemy skills, he really didn't know how to absorb these two immortal herbs. He would probably only have a chance of succeeding if he risked entering the Ice and Fire Twin Eyes.

Now that the two immortal herbs have been refined into elixirs, there is absolutely no need to take this risk.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Mu handed another pill to Xiao Wu. This pill was made by combining eight-petaled fairy orchid and narcissus jade bone, and its medicinal properties were mild and the simplest to refine.

Tang San and Xiao Wu, each holding their own pills, sat cross-legged in an open space, ready to begin absorbing the pills.

After seeing the two take the pills, Lin Mu first waved his hand and put the several jade bottles in front of him into his storage bracelet, and then took out the pills he had carefully prepared for himself.

This elixir is made primarily of Fiery Apricot, Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, and Extraordinary Chrysanthemum, supplemented with several herbs to harmonize its properties.

The pill entered his stomach and immediately transformed into a surge of heat, the scorching heat and fierce power impacting his limbs and bones.

Suddenly, Lin Mu was engulfed in raging flames. The originally crimson Qilin fire faintly revealed a noble golden-red hue, as if a phoenix phantom was hovering and undergoing nirvana within it.

If any other Soul Master were to absorb this pill, they would probably be burned to ashes by its extremely yang and hot medicinal power.

Fortunately, Lin Mu not only possessed abundant soul power, but his physique had also reached the level of a Title Douluo. Furthermore, with the fusion of the Qilin Flame with him, he did not suffer the fate of exploding and dying.

Half a day passed in the blink of an eye.

Tang San was the first to open his eyes, which were filled with a purple light and shone brightly.

In addition to the three immortal herbs, the pills he absorbed also contained the Dew of Longing for Autumn Water, which enabled his Purple Demon Eyes to break through the Mustard Seed Realm in one fell swoop.

Although the other three immortal herbs were incomplete, they still allowed his soul power to break through to level 40!

"Master!"

Tang San stood up from the ground and immediately looked at Lin Mu. Seeing that his master's breathing was stable and the flames around him were even more miraculous, he was relieved.

Then, his gaze turned to Xiao Wu, who was still absorbing the medicine's effects.

Under the Purple Demon Eye, which can see through illusions, Xiao Wu's figure became somewhat blurry, and within that blurry figure, he saw a pure white rabbit phantom with pink eyes!

"A soul beast... Xiao Wu is actually a soul beast?!"

Tang San was struck dumb, his mind went blank, as if the whole world had collapsed at that moment.

Under his master's guidance, he understood that Soul Masters and Soul Beasts were irreconcilable enemies.

For example, if a spirit beast perfectly matches one's martial soul, no spirit master would spare its life just because of its kindness.

At this moment, Tang San finally realized why Poison Douluo had attacked Xiao Wu without warning.

Because Xiao Wu is a transformed soul beast!
My sister, with whom I've lived for so many years, turns out to be a spirit beast in disguise!
How could he accept this!

Just as Tang San was beginning to question the meaning of life, Xiao Wu had just finished absorbing the medicinal effects.

This pill not only greatly enhanced her soul power and made her temperament more ethereal, but also improved her allure to a certain extent. As soon as Xiao Wu opened her eyes, she saw Tang San standing there, his face pale and his expression dazed. Thinking something was wrong with him, she was startled and rushed over with concern.

"Brother, are you okay?"

Hearing this worried voice, Tang San suddenly took a step back, forcefully slapped away the outstretched hand, and said with a hint of surprise and anger, "Why!"

Faced with Tang San's angry shout, Xiao Wu froze on the spot, her face full of astonishment and grievance.

"Brother, it's me, Xiao Wu!"

Looking at Xiao Wu's innocent and aggrieved appearance, Tang San hesitated to speak, his heart filled with extremely complicated emotions.

At the same time, Lin Mu had already absorbed all the medicinal effects.

Under the tempering of the ultimate fire, not only does his physique become increasingly powerful, but the Qilin fire also reaches a new level, enhancing his attack power and self-healing ability in all aspects.

His soul power even broke through to the third level in one fell swoop.

For a Soul Saint, breaking through three levels in one go is already quite astonishing.

"Master!"

Seeing Lin Mu stand up, Tang San felt like he had found his pillar of support. He hurriedly went over and whispered, "Master, Xiao Wu... she seems to be a soul beast."

A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Mu's eyes, but then he thought that it must be the "longing gaze" that had worked.

Immediately, he patted Tang San on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Little San, do you think Xiao Wu, who is standing in front of you now, is a human or a soul beast?"

Upon hearing this question, Tang San paused slightly, then looked at Xiao Wu, who looked bewildered and aggrieved. Recalling his past experiences, he hesitated for a moment and whispered, "I guess... she can be considered a person."

Is it a soul beast?

Lin Mu patted Tang San on the shoulder and said meaningfully, "It depends on how you see it."

Upon hearing this, Tang San fell into deep thought.

Since Xiao Wu has already taken human form and has lived with him for so many years, she shouldn't be considered a soul beast.

Seeing this, Lin Mu took out the only immortal herb that had not been refined into a pill.

This is a white flower, shaped like a peony, but without any leaves, and its roots are connected to a huge black rock.

A faint red light enveloped the flowers, exuding a sorrowful yet intense aura.

It is the Red of Love and Heartbreak that can isolate the aura of soul beasts!
"Take this to Xiaowu."

Tang San took the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red, walked quickly to Xiao Wu, looked into her tear-streaked eyes, and told her the legend of the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red.

After hearing this, Xiao Wu did not hesitate at all. She bit her tongue and spat out a mouthful of bright red blood onto the white petals.

With a slight tremor, the Love-Sickness Red petal quietly detached itself from the Black Stone and landed right in Xiao Wu's hand.

Tang San stared blankly at Xiao Wu. The Love-Sickness Red symbolized unwavering love until death, so didn't this mean...?
But Xiao Wu is a soul beast, and more importantly, she's his sister!
At this moment, Lin Mu walked over, patted Tang San on the shoulder, and said calmly, "Isn't this enough?"

Tang San suddenly realized what was happening and pulled Xiao Wu into his arms tightly.

"Little dance!"

Feeling this incredibly familiar embrace, Xiao Wu's grievances vanished instantly, and tears welled up again.

She hugged Tang San tightly, buried her face in his chest, and cried out, "Brother!"

　There are definitely beast-type beasts, but not now; they will only appear later when conflicts arise.
