Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 287 Xiao Wu's 2.0 Version

"What are you going to do with me?"

Gu Yuena followed beside Tang San, holding a candied hawthorn in one hand, walking along a food street in the city of food and drink, licking the candied hawthorn as she asked.

"You talk as if I'm going to slaughter you like a chicken or a duck later." Tang San couldn't help but roll his eyes at her. "My Blue Silver Emperor isn't suitable for animal soul beasts."

"Don't you still have a hammer and a five-clawed golden dragon?" Gu Yuena took a bite of a hawthorn fruit, showing a wary look at Tang San. "Who knows if your purpose in raising me is to 'execute' me on the spot when you need a soul ring later, killing the dragon to take the ring and bones."

"First, my Five-Clawed Golden Dragon is already perfect and cannot acquire any more spirit rings; second, my Clear Sky Hammer is in a special situation, and it's highly unlikely that I'll add any spirit rings to it until its problem is resolved," Tang San explained, then laughed again, "Besides, I'm not as powerful as you, how could I possibly execute you on the spot?"

"That's true." Gu Yuena nodded, then suddenly froze, her face darkening. She asked, "You know you're no match for a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form?"

As everyone knows, a 100,000-year-old soul beast that has taken human form is weak. If the enemy is even slightly stronger, it will be difficult for it to even self-destruct.

Tang San actually said he couldn't beat him!

Did she guess her deeper identity? But how did the other party know?

"Uh... I was just joking, but judging from your appearance, it seems like you really are someone I can't beat?" Tang San blinked curiously, as if he could see through everything about Gu Yuena.

"Damn it!" Gu Yuena blushed, crunching on her candied hawthorn, cursing herself for being stupid. Then she asked, "Guess what, I'm a tens of thousands of years old soul beast?"

"Judging from your spirit rings, all four of your spirit rings are light gold. As far as I know, for spirit beasts over 100,000 years old, a golden line will appear on their spirit rings for every 100,000 years they advance. Assuming your light gold spirit rings are all at the million-year level, then you must have at least close to ten million years of cultivation, right?" Tang San analyzed slowly and methodically. "A spirit master can become a god at level 100, so a spirit beast can become a divine beast after a million years. It seems that your predecessor must have been extremely powerful, perhaps even surpassing ordinary gods."

"You're really amazing, you guessed it all." Gu Yuena was quite pleased with Tang San's subtle praise, even pouting slightly. "Actually, I'm the ruler of the Star Dou Great Forest, and all the spirit beasts have to listen to me. Pretty impressive, right?"

"Hmm, really impressive." Tang San nodded perfunctorily.

"I'm serious!" Gu Yuena pouted, her cheeks puffed out, seeing Tang San's nonchalant expression as if he didn't believe her. "With just one command from me, all soul beasts will have to bow down and submit!"

"Really? Even the sea spirit beasts listen to you?"

Gu Yuena paused at the question, turned her head, and snorted coldly: "Most of the soul beasts in the sea worship the sea god, and the few who do not submit to the sea god do not pay much attention to my orders. After all, as long as they hide in the sea, I have no way to stir up the entire ocean."

Having recovered from her severe injuries, she can dig through the continental plates of Douluo Star to reach the planet's core and destroy the entire world by destroying the star's core, but she cannot explore the entire ocean area.

If the sea god hadn't been born yet, she could have done it, since she controlled the water element.

Unfortunately, the sea god appeared, and that place is now his territory.

Still recovering from her serious injuries, she faced a first-level deity with a faith encompassing almost the entire ocean; death was the only possible outcome for her.

"Heh~"

"What are you laughing at? I'm not kidding!" Gu Yuena was anxious, eager to prove her abilities to Tang San. "Except for those guys in the ocean who don't submit to me because of their faith in the Sea God, all other soul beasts will obediently kneel down with just one word from me."

"I believe it."

"I feel like you're still being perfunctory." Gu Yuena looked a little dejected. After finishing the candied hawthorn in her hand, she tilted her head back and stretched out her hand to Tang San, just like the gorilla emoji Tang San had seen on his phone in his previous life, where the gorilla stretched out its hand to ask tourists for food—except that Gu Yuena was a little more toned and prettier, there was no difference at all.

Tang San took out a candied hawthorn from his storage wristband and handed it to Gu Yuena.

Gu Yuena, who had just received the candied hawthorn, noticed the two storage soul tools on Tang San's body: a white jade belt and a storage wristband.

Xiao Wu and Guang Ling each possess one of these two storage soul tools... Gu Yue Na, licking a candied hawthorn, felt she should have one too, and said, "Tang San, I want a storage soul tool as well."

"Can."

Tang San nodded and led Gu Yuena to the Seven Treasures Pavilion, which was located in this food capital.

The staff immediately recognized Tang San and ushered him and Gu Yuena into the inner lounge, respectfully asking, "Your Highness, what would you like to buy?"

"A storage soul tool."

"It's a set!" Gu Yuena corrected, "Two pieces!"

"Do as she says," Tang Sanchao, the service staff member, said.

"Please wait a moment."

The staff left, but Gu Yuena picked up some pastries and fruits from the counter and began to eat them slowly, just like Xiao Wu had done back then.

But when Tang San noticed the snacks on the table, Gu Yuena, like a "dragon protecting its treasure," pulled all the snacks in front of her, as if afraid that she would snatch them. Then she took out a piece of cake the size of a baby's fist and pushed it in front of Tang San, saying, "Here, don't stare at the snacks on my big plate."

"You're much more stingy than Xiao Wu. She used to share everything with me, and now she gives me everything to eat." Tang San picked up the cake, speechless at Gu Yuena's possessive behavior.

"I am a dragon, and as everyone knows, dragons never know how to share!" Gu Yuena said matter-of-factly, stuffing all sorts of snacks into her mouth and eating with great relish.

Looking at the dwindling number of pastries on the counters around him, Tang San figured that after leaving the Seven Treasures Pavilion, he would gain a reputation for "taking advantage of others."

When the staff returned to the lounge with more than a dozen matching storage soul guides, they were stunned to see the almost empty counter.

"I'll pay later," Tang San said.

The staff quickly smiled apologetically, "Not at all, the snacks are free anyway. We're just glad your friend is happy."

After speaking, he immediately instructed the people behind him to place the boxes containing storage soul tools on the table and began to introduce them one by one…

"Which one have you chosen?" After the staff finished their introduction, Tang San gestured for Gu Yuena to make her selection.

"This." Gu Yuena looked at the two black pouches that were placed there. Each one was about the size of a palm, but according to the description, each one had a storage space of thirty cubic meters and could also store living creatures.

More importantly, the drawstring at the top of the bag is made of gold and silver, which is fatally attractive to Gu Yuena.

"Okay, this is it." Tang San spent 350,000 gold soul coins to buy the pair of gold and silver treasure pouches and the snacks here, and then left with Gu Yuena.

Gu Yuena, who was playing with two treasure pouches, suddenly handed the silver rope treasure pouch to Tang San and said, "Here, it's for you."

"Thank you so much." Tang San took the silver rope pouch and hung it on the white jade belt around his waist. "You spent my money to buy me a gift, and you even took half of it. Tsk tsk, you did a good job."

"Give it back to me if you don't want it." Gu Yuena reached out to grab it, but Tang San dodged it.

"That won't do. Once a gift is given, it's like water spilled; you can't ask for it back."

"snort!"
