The Martial Soul Skeleton, in Douluo Continent's Bone-Changing Susanoo

Chapter 96 The Peerless Dragon and Snake Couple

As he spoke, Long Gong Meng Shu fixed his gaze on the corpse of the human-faced demon spider whose head had been twisted off, and his expression immediately turned ugly.

Zhao Wuji seemed to have figured out the situation and quickly explained, "Senior Long Gong, I think you've misunderstood. This Human-Faced Demon Spider was captured from a group of soul beasts returning to their nest. When we encountered it, its body was still intact, so it shouldn't be the one you met. Besides, its soul ring has already been absorbed by Tang San."

Upon hearing this, Snake Granny Chao Tianxiang looked at Tang San in surprise, "You mean, that child already has level 30 soul power?"

"Indeed. Thanks to the sparring session with your granddaughter last time, he was forced to make a breakthrough in his soul power under pressure. Sister Chao, on behalf of my student, I would like to express my gratitude to you." Zhao Wuji cupped his hands in thanks to Chao Tianxiang.

After Chao Tianxiang nodded to accept Zhao Wuji's courtesy, she suddenly whispered something in Long Gong Meng Shu's ear.

Long Gong Meng Shu's gaze towards Tang San shifted slightly. "You're Tang San? You look a few years younger than my granddaughter. To become a Soul Master at such a young age. I never imagined the infamous Immovable King would be such a good teacher."

Seemingly sensing the unspoken meaning in the other party's words, Zhao Wuji knew that he certainly couldn't solve this problem with his own status, so he simply revealed Tang San's background, hoping to dissuade the Long family from recruiting talent.

"Senior Long Gong, you flatter me. Tang San is my student, but not my disciple. Besides, he's not as simple as you imagine." Zhao Wuji gestured towards the distance. "Senior, may I have a word with you in private?"

Meng Shu frowned slightly, but still nodded. He held an overwhelming advantage and was naturally unafraid of Zhao Wuji's schemes. In a flash, he was already twenty meters away.

Zhao Wuji hurriedly followed and whispered something to Long Gong.

In a short while, the two had finished their conversation.

Meng Shu walked back to his wife and granddaughter, and whispered a few words to Snake Granny. Snake Granny showed an extremely surprised expression. How could she have imagined that Tang San would be involved with Haotian Douluo?

"So you're the master's disciple. I never thought the master's theories would finally have a chance to be realized." Meng Shu looked at Tang San, concealing something, and said, "Today, for the sake of the master, I won't hold it against you. But Tang San, remember this: if the same thing happens again, I won't care who your master is. Let's go."

"Let's go, Yiran," Snake Granny said to Meng Yiran beside her.

From the moment she appeared, Meng Yiran's gaze was fixed on Xia Liang, seemingly no longer caring whether Tang San had stolen her Human-Faced Demon Spider Soul Ring.

Xia Liang kept his head down, trying his best to become invisible. He really didn't want to get involved in the trouble of this plot.

"Yiran, aren't you leaving yet?" Snake Granny pulled Meng Yiran's hand, which brought her back to her senses.

"Grandma, we don't think we've seen him before?" Meng Yiran winked at Xia Liang's position.

Chao Tianxiang followed her gaze and realized that she had indeed never seen this black-haired young man from Shrek Academy when the conflict arose over the Phoenix-tailed Crested Snake.

My granddaughter had been so absent-minded just now; it turns out she was infatuated with a boy.

"Brother Zhao, may I ask who this young man is?" Chao Tianxiang glanced at Zhao Wuji, then turned her gaze to Xia Liang.

Zhao Wuji quickly explained, "He was also a Soul Master who came into the forest to hunt Soul Beasts. Thanks to him, we were able to avoid being trampled by the Soul Beasts that were returning to their nest."

"Oh? So you're saying he's not one of Shrek's people?" Chaotianxiang asked.

Zhao Wuji glanced at Xia Liang. "No. But he has been kind to us. Sister Chao, is there something you want to say to him that you suddenly asked?"

"I think this kid is alright. Since he's not one of your Shrek academy members, then you shouldn't interfere in this matter."

The speaker was Meng Shu, the Dragon Lord. He had also noticed that his granddaughter was quite interested in this black-haired young man. Since he wasn't from Shrek Academy, it shouldn't be too difficult to bring him into the Meng family as a son-in-law.

Zhao Wuji stood helplessly to the side. This world is a dog-eat-dog world. He was able to protect Tang San because Tang San had a titled Douluo father.

It seems this young man named Xia Liang is going to be forcibly taken by the Meng family.

Ning Rongrong was quite happy to see this situation. Compared to the Meng family, any Soul Master would know which to choose.

If the Meng family forces them, it will be a good opportunity for them to recruit members for their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

A defensive Soul Master with a Skeleton Martial Soul is definitely Grandpa Bone's type.

"Young man, what's your name?" Chao Tianxiang asked.

Xia Liang thought for a moment before imitating Zhao Wuji, stretching out his hand towards the distance, "Senior Snake Granny, may I have a word with you in private?"

"You have something to say too?" Chao Tianxiang was a little taken aback.

Zhao Wuji just revealed that Tang San is the son of Haotian Douluo, so the Meng family naturally wouldn't dare to make any moves on Tang San.

Could it be that this black-haired young man suddenly has something to say, and he also wants to say that he has a connection with a certain titled Douluo?

Ning Rongrong, Long Gong, Meng Shu, and the others watched with puzzled expressions as Xia Liang and Chao Tianxiang walked twenty meters away.

Chao Tianxiang spoke up, "Alright, young man, just say what you have to say."

"Senior Snake Granny, do you recognize this token?"

Xia Liang took out an identity token from the silver bracelet and handed it over.

Looking at the token handed to her, Snake Granny Chaotianxiang narrowed her eyes. When she noticed the words "Bilin" engraved on the token, she seemed to wake up in fright and couldn't help but gasp.

Bilin is a synonym for the Bilin Snake clan. As a Soul Master with the Snake Staff Martial Soul, Chaotianxiang naturally knows the Bilin Snake clan.

Although the family has declined, a titled Douluo has emerged within its ranks.

The Poison Douluo who reigns supreme in the world of poisons is known by his title of Bi Lin.

The token held by the black-haired young man was obtained by the Spirit Hall during the title conferment ceremony for Poison Douluo. The fact that such an important item was held by a junior shows how important this junior is to Poison Douluo.

"You're Poison Douluo's grandson? But I remember he only had one granddaughter."

As soon as she finished speaking, Chao Tianxiang suddenly realized something, and her gaze towards Xia Liang changed strangely.

Xia Liang put his identity token back into his silver bracelet and said vaguely, "Senior Snake Granny, it's just as you thought."

Upon hearing this, Chao Tianxiang shook her head helplessly. How could she have imagined that this black-haired young man was actually the grandson-in-law of the Poison Douluo?

What amused Chaotianxiang was that Poison Douluo's granddaughter had a snake spirit, and her own granddaughter's spirit was also related to snakes. Could it be that this young man was naturally attracted to snake spirit masters?

Back among the group, Chao Tianxiang explained the situation to Meng Shu.

After learning the other party's identity, Meng Shu gave up the idea of ​​forcibly recruiting him and left with Meng Yiran.

Meng Yiran glanced at Xia Liang resentfully, stomped her foot, and stormed off.

Watching the Long family disappear from sight, Xia Liang finally relaxed a little. After this incident, he truly realized how convenient it was to have a powerful person backing him up.

No need for much nonsense; a single token is enough to dissuade a Soul Master family with a Soul Douluo in charge from harboring any ill intentions towards them.

This world truly is one where might makes right.

The thought of becoming stronger, stronger than any Soul Master or Soul Beast, arose in Xia Liang's mind once again.
