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

“Yes,” Wang Sheng quickly chimed in, “Tang San is wicked, and Ye Hua even has a grudge against him. This evil intention is definitely aimed at you!”

The other part-time students chimed in with their own opinions.

"Not only that, he glared at us before he left! He might even cause us trouble!"

"No way, what did we do to offend him? He's just bullying us because he has high soul power?"

"God knows! He even dared to frame Brother Ye Hua, so why can't he bully us without any reason?"

Hearing the group's discussion, Ye Hua put the medicine away in a deserted grove behind the courtyard and said, "Alright, alright, I know what I'm doing."

"Xiao Wu, Wang Sheng, and everyone else, come closer. The day after tomorrow, we'll do this and that..."

The day after tomorrow, outside the Soul Hunting Forest.

As dawn broke and the morning mist had not yet dissipated, the air in the forest was damp, carrying the scent of decaying leaves and dew.

After instructing Wang Sheng to lead the work-study students to ambush on the only road between the Soul Hunting Forest and Notting City, Ye Hua and Xiao Wu decisively followed the master and disciple.

At this moment, the two were crouching behind a clump of low bushes, dozens of meters away, staring at two figures in front of them.

Yu Xiaogang walked ahead, holding a wrinkled map in his hand, stopping every now and then to check the direction.

Luo Sanpao followed at his feet, his plump body leaving crooked marks on the fallen leaves.

Tang San, leaning on his wooden crutch, followed behind with a limp. The bandage on his right arm was stained with grime from the dust in the jungle.

"Brother," Xiao Wu's braid slipped from her shoulder and brushed against Ye Hua's hand as she whispered, "Do we really have to do this?"

"Wasn't that... a bit too much?"

She has asked this question at least three times since she left Nottingham.

Ye Hua smiled without saying a word, simply raising his index finger to his lips and then nodding his chin in Tang San's direction.

Xiao Wu followed his gaze.

As the morning mist dissipated, Tang San's voice drifted faintly from a distance of several dozen meters.

"...Teacher, the first thing I'll do after I get the Soul Ring is go back and deal with that Ye Hua!"

Tang San's voice is quite loud.

Apart from the master and apprentice, there wasn't a soul in the Soul Hunting Forest, so he didn't need to lower his voice at all!

"I want to beat him until he kneels and kowtows in front of everyone!"

"I'll make him realize that offending me, Tang San, was the most foolish decision he's ever made!"

The wooden cane slammed into the mud, splashing up a cloud of decaying leaves.

Yu Xiaogang walked ahead without saying a word or stopping him.

"And Xiao Wu," Tang San's voice suddenly softened a bit, "Once I deal with Ye Hua, she'll know who the right choice is!"

"Only the strong are worthy of her following!"

“Mistress,” Yu Xiaogang finally spoke, without turning his head, “watch your words!”

"Moreover, true strength is never bound by emotions!"

"Like me, have you ever seen me become obsessed with emotions while researching theories? No, never!"

"So, having this kind of mentality only shows that you're not mature enough! What's so great about Xiao Wu that makes you so infatuated!"

“No! She’s different from everyone else!” Tang San argued.

"What's the difference?" Yu Xiaogang asked, displeased. "After death, it's nothing more than a skeleton, a mere shell."

Tang San choked for a moment, then closed his mouth sullenly.

But on that pale face, there was still undisguised resentment.

That was clearly the girl he fell in love with at first sight! Fate had brought them together, and now he was destined to be with her.

This! Should! Belong! To! Him!

Why did Ye Hua interfere?

Behind the bushes.

Xiao Wu's fingers tightened one by one.

His originally loose hands gradually clenched into tight fists.

"elder brother."

"Ok?"

"I think you're still too kind."

Ye Hua glanced sideways.

Xiao Wu's face was tense, and the morning sun shone through the gaps in the leaves, casting dappled light and shadow on her face.

Her face, which should have been cute and adorable, was now covered in frost, clearly indicating that she was quite angry with Tang San.

【Ding--】

[Xiao Wu's rescue rate +10%]

Current rescue rate: 35%

[Detected that Xiao Wu has recognized Tang San's body, triggering a phased reward: Thousand Faces (Level 8 Soul Tool, no one below Super Douluo level can see your true appearance, can disguise your face, clothing, martial soul, soul rings, and other characteristics)]

Ye Hua gasped as he looked at the mask in the jade bracelet.

Ninety-nine percent!

Rare find!

It's a weapon of mass murder and arson!

You'll definitely need that knockout weapon someday!

Moreover, there are very few Super Douluo on the Douluo Continent. Apart from the Spirit Hall's enshrined figures, the Seagod Island's enshrined figures, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's Sword Douluo Bone Douluo, and Tang Hao, who is still in decline in Holy Soul Village, there are almost none!

These people dared not make any moves; they were either in seclusion, cultivating diligently, guarding their sect, or living in seclusion as a whole sect!

In other words, as long as you have the "Thousand Faces" feature, almost no one in mainland China can associate the things that "others" do with him!

Ye Hua composed himself and gently patted Xiao Wu's hand.

"Don't worry, the best is yet to come."

Tang San and Yu Xiaogang spent the entire day wandering around the Soul Hunting Forest.

They encountered an 80-year-old wind baboon, but Yu Xiaogang shook his head and said it wasn't compatible with Blue Silver Grass. When they came across a 100-year-old ghost vine, Yu Xiaogang still felt that the age wasn't enough.

After finally finding a two-hundred-year-old red-striped snake, Yu Xiaogang hesitated for a moment, but ultimately shook his head.

The fire poison of the Red-banded Serpent clashes with the wood attribute of the Blue Silver Grass, so the power of the soul skill will be reduced after it is absorbed.

The only suitable weapon is a 30-year-old lone bamboo, which has no offensive power and can be easily dealt with even by a woodcutter with a machete.

Tang San's patience was gradually worn down.

From dawn till midday, we walked until the sun was high in the sky, and from noon until the sun began to set.

His broken leg throbbed with pain, the splints chafing his flesh painfully, and every step he took felt like walking on a knife's edge.

"Teacher..." Tang San, leaning on his wooden crutch, panted, "It's getting dark."

Yu Xiaogang looked up at the sky, his brows furrowed into a ball.

The nights in the Soul Hunting Forest are ten times more dangerous than the days, as most soul beasts are nocturnal.

After dark, the roles of hunter and prey can be reversed at any time!

But can they leave?

No, because the Hunting Soul Forest can only be entered once a year.

If you miss this chance, the only way to obtain a Soul Ring is to go to the more dangerous Sunset Forest or Starry Sky Forest.

It's even more dangerous there!

"Little Three, let's set up camp and rest here," Yu Xiaogang sighed. "Tomorrow we'll go further in; there's an area with a high concentration of soul beasts there, maybe—"

Before he could finish speaking, Luo Sanpao suddenly perked up his ears, his pig nose twitched wildly forward, and a low whimper came from his throat.

Yu Xiaogang's expression suddenly changed!

Ye Hua also suddenly perked up!

They're here!

From the depths of the shadows, crimson vertical pupils lit up, and a black shadow, as thick as an oil drum and seven or eight meters long, leaped out!

Chapter 13 Tang San's Mental State Explodes

A four-hundred-year-old mandala snake!

It swam from between two ancient trees!

The dark green scales gleamed with a cold, eerie light in the twilight, and the cold, vertical pupils on the triangular snake head were fixed on Tang San and Yu Xiaogang.

The snake flicked its tongue, making a hissing sound.

Yu Xiaogang's forehead instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

Four hundred years is beyond his capabilities, especially as dusk is approaching!

"Little San, get ready!" Yu Xiaogang threw out his mask and formed a hand seal, "Three Cannon Slams to Heaven and Earth!"

Luo Sanpao turned around, his fat buttocks facing the datura snake, his belly bulging—

"run."

Ye Hua grabbed Xiao Wu and ran away, almost dragging Xiao Wu down with his speed.

She stumbled after him, about to ask a question, when a deafening thud suddenly came from behind her.

A few hundred meters away in the woods, a mushroom cloud of yellowish-brown color was slowly rising.

Even from a distance, the smell wafted over faintly, like stinky socks that hadn't been washed for three hundred years, boiled in swill, and then mixed with rotten eggs that had been fermenting for half a year.

"Hold your breath and keep running!"

Ye Hua decisively led Xiao Wu two miles away, making sure the stench wouldn't spread before he could breathe freely.

"Brother," Xiao Wu said, trembling with shock, "how did you know...?"

"Just a guess," Ye Hua said without changing his expression.

Looking at his calm and composed face, Xiao Wu knew that Ye Hua couldn't say anything, so she didn't ask any further questions.

"But, is it enough for us to just wear masks?"

"What if Tang San and the others disappear without a trace? Wouldn't your plan be ruined?"

Without hesitation, Ye Hua replied, "We have to run!"

"Xiao Wu, you may not know this, but the reason we can smell things is because things emit something called molecules, which permeate the air."

"The molecules enter our nasal cavity and are perceived by us, which is how we can judge the smell, such as the smell of meat, the smell of roses, and Xiaowu's body fragrance."

Seeing that Ye Hua was getting bolder and bolder, Xiao Wu quickly covered his mouth.

"Stop, stop, stop! If you keep talking... I'm going to get angry!"

“Alright,” Ye Hua readily agreed, “then I’ll continue with the topic we were just discussing.”

"We can smell farts because farts also release molecules."

"If we open our mouths and swallow molecules, that's called eating farts."

"If you open your mouth when you go to the toilet..."

Xiao Wu's eyes widened.

Ye Hua abruptly changed the subject.

"It's nothing. Who's so kind as to open their mouth when they're in the bathroom?"

Xiao Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
