In Douluo Continent, he tricked Xiao Wu into giving him a soul ring.

Compared to him, Shrek is nothing; that guy is the real monster.

"N-nothing." Ning Rongrong took a deep breath, trying to calm her excitement, while not forgetting to tease Oscar as usual, saying sarcastically, "Oscar, it seems that you, a Soul Master who is fourteen years and eleven months old, are far inferior to others."

Upon hearing this, Oscar turned pale and was speechless.

"Brother Tang Ritian, I just heard you call Zhu Qing 'sister-in-law,' do you know Lan Si?" Ning Rongrong started looking for a topic and asked with some curiosity.

Lan Si nodded and sighed, "I know him, of course I know him. We became friends after our fight. He's the only opponent I truly acknowledge."

"You fought him? Who won?" Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up with excitement as she quickly asked.

"It's a draw, I guess." Lan Si continued his nonsensical ramblings with a straight face. "However, if our soul power were equal, I would probably lose. He's the only opponent I've encountered at the same level since I became a Soul Master. I respect him."

Ning Rongrong hurriedly shook her head and said, "Brother Tang Ritian, you are already very powerful. You don't know that the freakish guy back then defeated seven people, including me, Zhu Qing, and Oscar, all by himself. Among them were three powerful Battle Soul Venerables, the highest of whom had a soul power of level 38, while his soul power was only level 33 at that time."

Everyone was quite surprised to see Ning Rongrong suddenly comforting someone, including Lan Si. When did this carefree Miss Ning start to care so much about a stranger she had just met?

...........

Tian Dou City, Crown Prince's Residence.

In the dimly lit hall, Qian Renxue stood with her back to the two titled Douluo, Serpent Spear and Porcupine, her hands clenched tightly, and said calmly, "So, a woman threw herself into A-Si's arms?"

"Yes, young master," Serpent Spear Douluo replied respectfully.

"Did A-Si push that person away?" Qian Renxue continued to ask.

"No," Serpent Spear Douluo replied hesitantly.

boom....

A powerful golden soul pressure erupted from Qian Renxue, instantly illuminating the entire hall. The floor cracked in a spiderweb pattern, centered on Qian Renxue's feet.

"Young Master, please calm down. Lan Si's appearance has changed drastically, so it's perfectly normal for girls to throw themselves at him... Perhaps it's just a misunderstanding..." Qian Renxue's anger did not surprise Serpent Spear Douluo. Seeing this, Serpent Spear Douluo and Porcupine Douluo exchanged a glance, and the latter immediately understood and tried to dissuade her.

Hearing this, Qian Renxue's anger gradually subsided. She withdrew her soul pressure, the golden light disappeared, and she said in a deep voice, "Go, send someone to call him back to me."

...........

On the other side, Lan Si and the others had finished their meal. Amid Ning Rongrong's reluctant farewell and Oscar's dejected gaze, the three of them parted ways with them.

The three walked side by side on the main street of Tiandou City. Zhu Zhuqing reached out her jade-like hand, slipped it into Lan Si's waist, and pinched him hard. Lan Si gasped in pain and couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, Zhuqing, are you trying to murder your husband?!"

"Tell me, Brother Tang Ritian, what were you up to just now?" Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Lan Si with her beautiful eyes, emphasizing the words "Brother Tang Ritian" with a hint of jealousy.

No one understands a woman's heart better than a woman. Zhu Zhuqing had witnessed Ning Rongrong's behavior not long ago. It didn't seem like she was there to catch up with her at all. Instead, it seemed like she was there for Lan Si. At the same time, she knew how attractive Lan Si's appearance and temperament were to women. It was no surprise that Ning Rongrong had developed feelings for Lan Si.

Chapter Ninety-Eight: Tang San Finally Arrives at the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire

"What's going on?" The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was stolen, and Dugu Bo and Tang San encountered a golden love triangle. In the end, it is expected that suspicion will fall on Tang Ritian, who is using the alias Lan Si. If Zhu Zhuqing, Ye Lingling, and Lan Si suddenly increase their soul power during the Soul Master Competition a year and a half later, suspicion will fall on Lan Si again.

If that were the case, Dugu Bo would probably capture Lan Si as well, just like he captured Tang San. The consequences would be unimaginably terrible.

You should know that being watched by a Title Douluo is not a pleasant experience.

He just wanted Tang San and Dugu Bo to know through Ning Rongrong and Oscar that 'Tang Ritian knows Lan Si'. That way, even if they saw the strange speed at which the three of them increased their soul power, they would only suspect that Tang Ritian had given them the immortal herbs, and would continue to focus their attention on the non-existent Tang Ritian.

Anyway, as long as he reverts to his pre-spirit evolution appearance during the Soul Master Competition, Dugu Bo won't be able to find Tang Ritian even if he searches the entire continent.

Ye Lingling smiled sweetly, "A-Si, haven't you noticed that the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School seems to have taken a liking to you?"

"No way, we've only exchanged less than twenty words in total." Lan Si was slightly taken aback.

"What do you think?" Zhu Zhuqing glared at Lan Si and said irritably.

"Sigh, another one who's lusting after me." Lan Si sighed helplessly, rubbed his forehead, and then shrugged slightly before saying something surprising: "She likes Tang Ritian, what does that have to do with me, Lan Si? There are plenty of people who like me, Lan Si. Believe me or not, I can just grab any woman off the street and I guarantee she'll fall head over heels for me."

He wasn't just making things up; in fact, ever since he entered Tiandou City, he had received many admiring glances from women.

"What a narcissist." Zhu Zhuqing rolled her eyes at Lan Si. Although it was a reprimand, she didn't mean to blame him. She gently rested her head on Lan Si's shoulder, her beautiful red lips slightly upturned, and took his arm as if to assert her ownership.

It was clear that she was satisfied with Lan Si's answer.

Lan Si continued, "People are always full of longing for beautiful things. She is just like those ordinary people. She only likes my physical appearance. What does it have to do with me?"

Lan Si neither disliked nor liked Ning Rongrong.

Ever since the last Soul Battle in Soto City, when Ning Rongrong chose Shrek Academy and tried to get the kitten to betray Lan Si's information, the two were destined to have no interaction.

It's not that Ning Rongrong did anything wrong. It's just that their positions are different. If she were still as close to the kitten as before, Lan Si might have given her a magical herb out of respect for the kitten. But since she chose Tang San's side, it has little to do with Lan Si anymore.

He and Tang San were destined to clash, and they are already at odds now.

As the saying goes, those who walk different paths cannot make plans together, so he was destined to have no interaction with Ning Rongrong.

Just then, a young man dressed in court attire blocked their path. Lan recognized him; he was a guard from the Crown Prince's residence.

The guard bowed respectfully and said, "Lord Lan Si, His Highness the Crown Prince requests your presence."

Lan Si's heart pounded, sinking to the bottom of the sea. She inwardly cried out, "I'm doomed..." She knew Qian Renxue had sent either a snake spear or a porcupine to follow her to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well; otherwise, the Crown Prince's guards wouldn't have recognized her. Didn't that mean her affair with the kitten was also...?

.............

Meanwhile, as Lan Si was about to face the most intense battle in history, Dugu Bo, who had just finished a battle with the Golden Love Triangle and finally gave up after being persuaded by Tang San, led Tang San to the top of the mountain valley where the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was located.

"The herb garden is just below. Follow me." Dugu Bo pointed, then leaped into the bottomless valley. Due to the approaching evening and the rising steam from the valley floor, Dugu Bo disappeared from Tang San's sight in the blink of an eye.

Almost the instant Dugu Bo jumped down, Tang San also moved. He extended his eight spider spears and his eight spider legs moved rapidly. With the powerful mobility provided by the spider legs, he ignored the terrain and rushed down the mountainside at high speed.

If he had only heard Dugu Bo's description before, he would have been 30% certain that Dugu Bo's herb garden was the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

Now that he has witnessed this scene, he is 99% certain that what lies beneath is the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire, one of the three great treasure basins.

Tang San swiftly descended the mountainside, and after a while, he finally landed in the mountain. At that moment, Dugu Bo stood motionless in the thick fog formed by the hot spring, his shoulders trembling slightly.

After putting away the Eight Spider Lances, Tang San did not look at Dugu Bo, but instead looked at the scene in the valley. The hot spring was not large, but it was divided into two parts, vermilion and milky white, which were clearly separated from each other and did not invade each other, always remaining on their own side.

Xiaoshuting app

"The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, it really is the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire..." Tang San was overjoyed. At this moment, he truly confirmed his guess. He had actually found the legendary Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

The Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire is uniquely endowed, a place where the essence of heaven and earth converges, a naturally formed treasure. It is a shared treasure of all soul masters, belonging only to the virtuous.

Dugu Bo is just a martial artist who has killed countless people. What merit does he have to occupy such a treasure land? Today, I, Tang San, have encountered him and I must not miss this opportunity.

Just as Tang San was pondering how to seize all the immortal herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well from Dugu Bo, Dugu Bo, standing in the thick fog, suddenly roared, "Who, who destroyed my herb garden...!"

The roar carried a powerful soul pressure at the level of a Title Douluo, transforming into a light green wave of energy that suddenly spread outwards from Dugu Bo's body, sweeping through everything in its path.

The thick fog that filled the valley was instantly blown away, and Tang San was blown away without even having time to release his Eight Spider Lances. His body slammed hard against the mountain wall, and he passed out.

In the moments before losing consciousness, Tang San finally saw the entire valley. It was a scene of devastation, barren and ravaged, as if plowed and harrowed countless times. There were no immortal herbs to be seen, only countless bits of medicinal residue mixed in with the soil…

Seeing Tang San unconscious, a fierce glint flashed in Dugu Bo's eyes. He snorted coldly, and with a flash, he leaped up into the valley, quickly chasing after the direction where the Golden Triangle Lovers had gone.

He was gone for less than four days, and the herb garden was destroyed, with most of the rare herbs looted. The thieves must have planned this, taking advantage of his absence.

During these three days, Tang San kept asking him about the situation in the herb garden. Tang San's teacher, Golden Triangle Love, happened to be on the outskirts of the herb garden, making them the prime suspects.

P.S.: Third update. I took a sip of wine and will finish before midnight.

Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Cowardly Yu Xiaogang

The next morning, as dawn slowly drew back the curtain, another splendid and colorful morning descended upon the world with its freshness.

But above the mountain pass where the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire is located, the scene is quite different.

Before anyone knew it, four crosses had been erected, each with three men and one woman, and each with a person bound to it. These were Tang San and the once-famous Golden Iron Triangle of Douluo Continent.

At this moment, they were being whipped by a green figure wielding a long whip, and the screams of agony rose and fell incessantly, standing out conspicuously in the thick fog.

"Ah... Dugu Bo... You're supposed to be a Title Douluo, what kind of skill is it to bully a woman? If you want to fight, fight me... don't fight Erlongmei..."

"Fine, you've got guts. I'll grant your wish..."

"what...."

"Ah... Boss Fu, don't scare me! Dugu Bo, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan won't let you get away with this..."

"Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, is it? I may not be able to defeat that old dragon, but if I wipe you out without leaving a trace, how will that old dragon know that I killed you? What can it do to me?"

........

At this moment, Tang San slowly woke up and heard screams all around him. He opened his eyes with some difficulty and found that his limbs were bound and he could not break free. He could not even use his external soul bone because his soul power had been sealed.

He was joined by Flander, Yu Xiaogang, and Liu Erlong, whom he had met the previous evening. However, the three of them were in a sorry state, with bloody welts from whippings all over their bodies, clearly having been beaten quite a bit. Flander was the most seriously injured, his skin almost torn open, followed by Liu Erlong, while Yu Xiaogang was the least injured, but he also had several bloody welts on his body, all from being whipped by Dugu Bo.

"Old Poisoner, what do you want to do? Let go of my teacher and the others!" Tang San roared, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets, seeing the miserable state of the three.

"What do I want to do? What do you think I want to do? I want to kill someone." Dugu Bo's face hardened, and no matter how much Tang San roared, he mercilessly swung the leather whip again, this time directly hitting the level 29 trash who called himself Tang San's teacher. Yu Xiaogang grimaced in pain and fainted.

Seeing this, Dugu Bo felt it wasn't enough to vent his anger, so he grabbed a bucket of water and splashed it on Yu Xiaogang's face to wake him up, and continued to whip him.

"You old poisoner, don't hit Xiaogang, hit me instead!" Seeing Yu Xiaogang being beaten half to death, Liu Erlong's eyes were bloodshot as she shouted.

"No, don't hit Erlongmei and Xiaogang, hit me." Almost the instant Liu Erlong opened her mouth, Flander drowned out her with his own voice.

But Dugu Bo seemed not to hear their roars, and slapped Yu Xiaogang a few more times before stopping. He coldly said to Yu Xiaogang, "Your two companions want me to stop hitting you and hit them instead. I'll give you a choice. You can choose one of the three of you for me to hit."

"I..." At this moment, Yu Xiaogang was in unbearable pain. Although Dugu Bo's whip did not cover his soul power, it was still hitting them hard. Even though soul masters' bodies are stronger than ordinary people, they are still not strong enough to withstand it. If the beating continued like this, they would be beaten to death.

Upon hearing what Dugu Bo said, Yu Xiaogang was caught in a dilemma. First of all, he would never choose his own path, as he would likely be beaten to death. Now that he had finally found a genius disciple with twin martial souls, he was reluctant to die. He had not yet proven his invincible theory, made a name for himself on the Douluo Continent, and proved that he was worthy of the title of master.

Then there are Liu Erlong and Flander. To be fair, Liu Erlong is quite important to Yu Xiaogang, at least ahead of Flander. Choosing Flander is undoubtedly the best option.

But doing so would damage his image as a great master, which would be a loss.

Seeing that Yu Xiaogang was hesitant to make a decision, Dugu Bo snorted coldly, "You're not going to choose, huh? In that case, I'll beat up your disciple."

"Dugu Bo, how dare you! Do you even know who he is?" Upon hearing that Dugu Bo was going to hit Tang San, Yu Xiaogang didn't know where she got the courage to shout out.

Dugu Bo immediately lashed out with his whip again at Yu Xiaogang, tearing his skin open. "I don't care who he is. Even if he really is the son of the person you're talking about, you still have to choose him?"

"I choose...I choose..." Yu Xiaogang grimaced in pain, still hesitant.

"Little Anal, choose me."

"No, don't let him hit Erlongmei, Xiaogang, choose me."
