Douluo V: Taking advantage of Xiao Wu's naivety, I tricked her into becoming my wife.

Because Tang Hao already had a full soul bone when Ah Yin sacrificed herself, he could only absorb soul rings. Later, these soul bones were given to Tang San.

But now that he knows, the soul bone is his for the taking!

Killing Tang Hao now would be a bad deal, firstly because it would eliminate a tool for increasing his salvation rate, and secondly because it would be difficult to find the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone.

"You can get lost now," Ye Hua waved his hand. "I have matters concerning transformed soul beasts. You can say whatever you want, as long as you don't care about Tang San's life or death."

Tang Hao felt as if he had been granted a pardon. He didn't even care about his injuries and scrambled out the door, disappearing into the night.

Tang Hao only dared to rest after running out of the city and back to the blacksmith shop in Holy Soul Village.

"Damn it..." Tang Hao gasped for breath, squeezing out two words through gritted teeth.

A student from a junior Soul Master Academy, accompanied by a level 96 Super Douluo!

Are they here to study in Nottingham?

They must be here on a clandestine visit!

If he had known that Ye Hua had such a powerful backer, he would never have let Tang San provoke him.

Now look what's happened! His son's arms and legs were broken, his own left arm was broken, and he even lost a 30,000-year-old soul bone!

There's also the useless master who spouts nonsense without even understanding the situation, causing him to lose an arm and bones!

Tang Hao felt increasingly frustrated and punched the wall in his house!

"Night! Hua!"

Sooner or later I'll make you pay!

Tang Hao gritted his teeth, dug out a wooden box from the corner of the house, and slowly opened it.

In an instant, a burst of life force erupted, and lying in the wooden box was none other than the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone that Ye Hua had longed for!

Countless streams of healing energy surged into the gap in Tang Hao's severed arm!

The originally bloody wound was covered by newly grown flesh in no time!

At this moment, Tang Hao was extremely grateful that he hadn't brought Ah Yin's soul bone with him, otherwise Ye Hua would definitely have taken it away today!

But it's obviously impossible to grow another arm.

The thought of becoming crippled in the future made Tang Hao's eyes turn red.

"Ye Hua, just you wait!"

"Xiao San has twin martial souls and is born with full soul power. I have already taught him the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique. His future will go much further than mine!"

"The day he grows up will be your end. At that time, I will make you pay back a thousand times over the soul bone that you took from my left arm today!"

"I will wring your arms and legs until they bleed, then tear them off, making you suffer excruciating pain!"

In the villa's living room, Ye Hua was playing with the left arm bone of the giant ape, completely satisfied.

A 30,000-year-old soul bone, produced by a powerful Vajra Giant Ape, is a perfect match for the Panlong Staff's offensive attributes.

Once he breaks through to level 30 and absorbs this soul bone, his strength will increase dramatically!

"Old Tie, thank you for your hard work tonight. I'll need your protection again later."

"Your Majesty is too kind. This is my duty."

Ye Hua put the soul bone back into the jade bracelet, stood up, and took out the soul ring given to him by the system.

The five-thousand-year-old soul ring hung in his palm, its grape-purple patterns flowing, much darker than the color of his first soul ring.

Ye Hua sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and pressed the soul ring onto his martial soul.

Warm energy surged from the martial spirit into the body, flowing along the meridians.

The five-clawed golden dragon pattern on the coiled dragon staff lit up again, and the dragon's head was raised, emitting a faint dragon roar.

Soul power began to surge.

The bottleneck at level 20 is as fragile as paper in the face of a five-thousand-year soul ring; it can be broken with a single puncture.

Ye Hua's soul power level starts from level 20 and jumps upwards!

Twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three... and finally it came to a steady stop at level twenty-five.

Ordinary Soul Masters' second Soul Ring is only seven or eight hundred years old, or even less, so even if they break through, they can only increase their Soul Power by one level.

But Ye Hua is different. With the help of the system, he can easily absorb a five-thousand-year soul ring. This unprecedented feat naturally increases his soul power immeasurably!

Only five levels away from reaching level 30 and becoming a Soul Master!

The soul skill of his second soul ring gave him an even bigger surprise.

Second Soul Skill: Earth-Shattering Strike

[Effect: The Dragon Staff slams into the ground, unleashing a shockwave that spreads outwards, causing all enemies within the area to suffer shock damage and be slowed.]

[It has an additional effect on shattering the shields of defensive Soul Masters, and grants invincibility for one second after use.]

Ye Hua opened his eyes and nodded in satisfaction.

Area damage, slow, shield break, invincibility frames!

With all four effects combined, the second soul skill granted by this five-thousand-year soul ring is simply a powerful weapon in team battles!

If the first soul skill, Fire Dragon's Roar, is more inclined to stack buffs and increase damage, then the second soul skill is a burst of damage plus area-of-effect damage, perfectly complementing his combat methods.

If the battle goes on for a long time, he also has the divine soul skill [Nine Heavens Staff Technique] to use, which maximizes both burst damage and endurance!

Ye Hua retracted the Panlong Staff into his body and then took out the left arm bone of the Vajra Giant Ape from the jade bracelet.

The dark gold bone surface gleamed with a warm luster. If it were to be converted into a Soul Ring Age, his strength would surely reach a new level.

After hesitating for a moment, he ultimately did not obtain it. The attributes of the Vajra Giant Ape were highly compatible with the Panlong Staff, but its age was still too low, and it might not be suitable for him.

He remembered that there were many powerful goddesses on the list of his harem, such as Wang Qiu'er. It would be more worthwhile to leave this soul bone to her than to feed it to a soul ring.

But just as he put away the soul bone, a soft sound came from behind him.

Ye Hua turned his head and saw Xiao Wu standing barefoot at the top of the stairs in her pajamas, her big eyes staring blankly at him.

His heart tightened. He had been focused on breaking through, and had no time to worry about the soundproof barrier he had set up for Xiao Wu. The noise from his breakthrough still woke Xiao Wu up.

Fortunately, Tie Xiong had already silently disappeared into the shadows the moment Xiao Wu's footsteps sounded.

Only Ye Hua and Xiao Wu remained in the living room, their eyes meeting.

"Brother..." Xiao Wu's voice trembled as she threw herself into his arms.

The force was so great that it knocked the unsuspecting Ye Hua to the ground.

The two rolled around in each other's arms, Ye Hua's back hit the sofa leg, and Xiao Wu pressed herself against him, her hands on his chest, her eyes filled with tears.

"Brother, now I understand why I felt close to you the moment I saw you."

Xiao Wu's eyes were filled with tears, "So you were one too..."

Ye Hua was bewildered, "Me too?"

"Hoo hoo," Xiao Wu tried to calm herself down and forced a smile, "It's nothing, don't worry. We need to know how to protect ourselves. I won't tell anyone."

"Huh?" Ye Hua was confused.

Wait, that tone... this girl wouldn't...

Ye Hua's lips twitched violently!

Seriously? This girl thinks I'm a transformed soul beast?

Chapter 21 Xiao Wu Misunderstands, Master is Dumbfounded

Xiao Wu, I am the weapon spirit, the Panlong Staff!

Could it be that I'm a reincarnation of a fire poker?

But Xiao Wu obviously doesn't think so. Can't a weapon spirit be a soul beast in human form?

No, no, no, my brother's ability to conjure spirit rings out of thin air is irrefutable proof of his spirit beast transformation!

The Panlong Staff martial spirit was just a disguise for him; there's no way he could be wrong!

"Brother, don't worry, I won't tell anyone your secret."

"Actually, I wish I had met you sooner, at least I could have learned your methods, otherwise I would still be at risk of being exposed now."

Ye Hua was stunned. His brain was racing, but he couldn't think of a way to explain it. He couldn't very well just reveal the system, could he?

What's more... Xiao Wu's position on top of him made it impossible for him to concentrate on thinking.
