Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, Luo Sanpao, Allows Me to Defy Fate

at the same time.

A street corner a hundred meters from the college.

A slender figure stood quietly, her plain dress making her appear even more elegant and refined.

It was Ah Yin.

She watched as Yu Xiaoheng and his group disappeared behind the academy gate, her beautiful, watery eyes filled with a thoughtful expression.

Rou'er was brought into the academy.

For her, it might be an opportunity.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect is filled with experts and is heavily guarded, making it extremely difficult to rescue someone from there.

But colleges are different; the personnel are diverse and highly mobile, so there's always an opportunity to take advantage.

Previously, she had entrusted Xiao Wu to Daming and Erming deep in the Star Dou Great Forest, and she would often go back to visit her to ensure that her "adopted daughter" was safe and sound.

Right now, rescuing Rou'er is her only goal.

She witnessed Rou'er being captured in the forest that day, and seeing that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan members did not kill her today, her anxiety eased somewhat.

But being imprisoned is ultimately a dangerous situation.

We must find a solution as soon as possible.

Ah Yin withdrew her gaze and began searching for a place to stay near Thunder Academy.

She found a house on the street with a "For Rent" sign.

The person who opened the door was a slightly plump middle-aged woman surnamed Wang. Judging from her clothes and appearance, she was shrewd and shrewish.

Aunt Wang looked Ah Yin up and down, her manner arrogant.

"Renting a place? Alone?"

Ah Yin nodded slightly, her voice soft.

"Yes, sister, I rent it all by myself."

She was naturally beautiful, with a gentle temperament and clear, untainted eyes.

Even with Aunt Wang's fiery temper, which she had seen all sorts of people, her tone softened considerably when facing this woman.

But when it comes to money, her shrewdness immediately takes over.

Aunt Wang stretched out three thick fingers, making a firm and resolute gesture.

"Three gold soul coins a month, not a single soul coin less!"

"Three gold soul coins?"

Ah Yin froze on the spot, a hint of astonishment flashing in her watery eyes.

She is not detached from worldly affairs; during her years living in the human world, she has also rented apartments.

The cheapest option is to stay for a month for just a few copper soul coins.

Even in better-located residential areas, the price is only a dozen or so silver soul coins.

Three gold soul coins, that's an astronomical price.

Seeing her like this, Aunt Wang immediately curled her lip and put her hands on her hips with a self-righteous air.

"Young lady, don't think it's too expensive! My house is right next to Thunder Academy, it's a proper school district property!"

"So many parents are desperate to rent a place nearby, my price is already very reasonable!"

"Take it or leave it. If you don't want to rent, there are plenty of people waiting in line!"

These words left Ah Yin speechless.

She recently broke through level 20 in soul power and became a Great Soul Master.

According to the Spirit Hall's subsidy rules, she can receive ten gold soul coins every month.

The monthly rent of three gold soul coins was far beyond her expectations, but she could still afford it if she gritted her teeth.

For Rou'er...

She held the name in her heart, and her eyes regained their resolve.

"Okay, I'll rent it."

Ah Yin carefully counted out three glittering gold coins from her small cloth bag.

Inside the bag was all her savings, just over thirty gold soul coins.

After paying the rent, Ah Yin felt a headache coming on as her pockets weren't full.

Money, not enough...

Xiao Wu is at an age where she's very curious about the outside world. Next time I visit her, I'll bring her some delicious food and pretty clothes.

Da Ming and Er Ming didn't like gold and silver, but they were very interested in books about the human world, which was also a considerable expense.

And then there are their own daily necessities...

Ah Yin sighed softly, trying to comfort herself.

It's alright, Gintoki. These difficulties will pass. You'll get a subsidy of ten gold soul coins every month from now on!

The girl gently clenched her small fist, making a cheering gesture.

Even Aunt Wang was a little stunned; this girl... was really quite adorable.

"Never mind, otherwise why would I have lowered her rent by half a gold soul coin?"

"Someone asked me yesterday if I need three and a half gold soul coins a month..."

As Ah Yin walked out of the courtyard, she happened to pass a candy stand on the street corner.

The stall displayed rows of exquisite little boxes filled with colorful candies, which looked quite lovely.

"Boss, how much are these candies?"

"Young lady, you have excellent taste! This is a brand new candy from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan. We're one of the few places in Thunder City that has it! One gold soul coin per box!"

The middle-aged man was praising him.

One... Gold Soul Coin?

Ah Yin's hand, which was reaching for the money bag, froze in mid-air.

too expensive.

She silently withdrew her hand, deciding to be frugal this month, focusing on cultivation and buying only cheap vegetables to fill her stomach.

But simply saving money isn't a solution.

Is there any way I can make money?

I think... I've heard that the Soul Arena is a place where you can make money quickly?

The thought of Rou'er being imprisoned and suffering a hundred times more than herself made Ah Yin's heart clench, and her desire to make money grew stronger.

At least I need to settle myself down first, and to rescue Rou'er, I might need to hire some Soul Masters.

"Gurgle..."

Ah Yin felt the hunger rising in her stomach and could only comfort herself.

nothing!

Ah Gin!

We've already gotten through the tough times when we only had one gold soul coin as a subsidy!

Don't be afraid!

only……

She watched as the candy shop was gradually surrounded by a crowd of noblemen who generously donated, her eyes blinking incessantly.

We'll have to wait until we rescue Rou'er and then buy some candy to celebrate.

……

Meanwhile, inside Thunder Academy.

"Wow! Xiao Heng! Our family is so impressive! That dean, the Contra Pro, actually knelt down before you!"

Rou'er followed Yu Xiaoheng, her big eyes sparkling with excitement, her little mouth chattering incessantly.

we?

Upon hearing this address, Yu Xiaoheng's lips twitched slightly, but he remained silent.

Who said we're with you?

Fine, let her be for the sake of a 100,000-year soul ring.

Chapter 51 Rou'er: I'm so happy!

Rou'er, however, was unaware that she was enjoying a drink that Yu Xiaoheng had handed her.

It's a "milk tea" made with fresh milk, black tea, and a special syrup. It has a smooth texture and is sweet but not cloying. It was Yu Xiaoheng's idea from his previous life, and he brought it over.

"Mmm—it's so delicious! Xiao Heng, what is this? It tastes better than any sweet drink I've ever had before!"

Yu Lin and Yu Hu, who were following behind, exchanged a glance, both speechless.

My dear young lady, those sweet drinks you used to drink only cost a few copper soul coins per cup.

The milk tea that Young Master gave you costs one Silver Soul Coin just to produce internally. It is only supplied to the nobles and is sold to the public for twenty Silver Soul Coins a cup!

How can you even compare them?

And your mouth hasn't stopped moving the whole way. The snacks and drinks you've eaten and drunk, if you add them up, would cost several gold coins a day!

Rou'er was completely oblivious. She finished the last sip of her milk tea, smacked her lips with lingering satisfaction, then patted her still slightly heaving chest and said to Yu Xiaoheng with a heroic air:

"Xiao Heng! You're amazing! You're so good to your sister Rou'er, I'll definitely repay you in the future!"

Yu Xiaoheng smiled gently, unconcerned.
