Chapter 117: Flender Softens After Learning the Truth
🕑 Added 2025-04-21 19:03:01 +0000 UTC"What?! Meng Yiran?! How is that possible?! Wasn’t she no match for you last year?" Master’s face was filled with shock.
Last year, when Master saw his disciple defeat the famous Dragon and Serpent Duo’s disciple, he had been quite proud for a while.
Now, you’re telling me that Meng Yiran has defeated Tang San?
Tang San nodded slightly and recounted everything that had happened.
After hearing Tang San’s account, especially the part about Meng Yiran breaking through to level 40 in just one year, everyone present was left in a daze.
Finally, Flender, who had initially wanted to help Tang San seek justice, coughed awkwardly upon hearing that Meng Yiran was the one who had injured Tang San. He quickly made up an excuse and left.
"I’ll go get some water for Tang San..."
Master, who had been furious earlier, fell into a long silence after hearing Tang San’s story.
Eventually, he patted Tang San’s shoulder and said slowly, "Tang San, don’t worry. Xiao Yu’s teacher is my comrade. When she returns, I’ll have her teach Xiao Yu a lesson. You rest well. I promise, I’ll make sure this matter is handled properly!"
Sitting on the bed, Tang San watched as his teacher and Dean Flender almost fled in panic.
His face grew increasingly gloomy.
Initially, Tang San had been quite moved when Dean Flender said he would seek justice for him.
But upon hearing that Meng Yiran was the one who had injured him, Flender had been scared off like a quail.
Even his teacher, aside from offering comforting words, couldn’t provide any real help.
Because of their fear of Xiao Yu, both of them had almost completely changed their personalities and temperaments.
At this moment, Tang San’s anger toward Xiao Yu grew even stronger.
If it weren’t for Xiao Yu, he wouldn’t have been separated from Xiao Wu.
If it weren’t for Xiao Yu, he wouldn’t have ended up in such a state.
But after the anger, Tang San fell into despair and desolation.
Could he not fear Xiao Yu?!
No, of course, he feared him.
After all, Xiao Yu was the first opponent who had effortlessly defeated Tang San despite him using all his tricks.
Now, aside from cultivating his second martial soul, Tang San couldn’t find any way to resist Xiao Yu.
But his hammer martial soul wasn’t ready for cultivation yet, and Tang San didn’t want to sacrifice his future for a moment of satisfaction now.
Tang San summoned his Blue Silver Grass.
He looked at it seriously, trying to think of a better solution.
However, the next moment, Tang San felt a bitter taste in his throat.
Soon, a mouthful of black-purple blood was spat out by Tang San, splattering onto the Blue Silver Grass in front of him.
Tang San wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Damn it, there’s still some of Meng Yiran’s serpent venom in my body. I need to prepare some antidote herbs, or it’ll cause long-term damage."
However, just as Tang San was about to put away his Blue Silver Grass, he noticed that the grass was absorbing the poisoned blood he had just spat out.
As the blood was fully absorbed, the color of the Blue Silver Grass seemed to deepen.
Moreover, Tang San felt that his soul power had increased slightly.
Seeing this, Tang San’s face lit up with joy.
"Could it be that my Blue Silver Grass has the ability to absorb toxins?! But why didn’t I notice this before?!"
After years of cultivation, this was the first time Tang San had discovered this effect of his Blue Silver Grass.
After some careful thought, Tang San suddenly remembered.
Perhaps his Blue Silver Grass had changed like this because of his third soul ring.
Back then, after Xiao Yu had stolen the Death Spider, Tang San had been forced to choose a snake-type spirit beast that was far inferior to the Death Spider.
This spirit beast was called the Venomous Python.
Its soul skill was simple: when entangling an enemy, the venom potency would double.
Initially, Tang San had only wanted to increase the toughness and venom of his Blue Silver Grass.
But now, it had brought him such an unexpected surprise.
Realizing that the toxins in his body hadn’t been fully cleared, Tang San controlled his Blue Silver Grass to pierce into his body.
The Blue Silver Grass seemed to find food, eagerly absorbing the toxins.
Tang San immediately felt the toxins in his body rapidly decreasing.
At the same time, his soul power was also increasing quickly.
Finally, after absorbing all the toxins, Tang San let out a slight sigh of relief.
"My soul power level actually increased?!"
After absorbing the toxins, Tang San was shocked to find that not only had his injuries healed, but his soul power had also increased slightly.
Although the increase wasn’t much, the amount of residual toxins in his body hadn’t been much either.
Thinking of this, Tang San’s face was filled with excitement.
If he continued cultivating his Blue Silver Grass in this direction, his cultivation speed could increase significantly!
"Hahaha!! Hahaha!! Xiao Yu, I really have to thank you! If it weren’t for you taking my Death Spider and repeatedly pushing me to the brink, I would never have discovered this use for my Blue Silver Grass! Just wait, Xiao Yu. I will definitely take Xiao Wu back from you!"
At this moment, having found a new direction for his Blue Silver Grass cultivation, Tang San’s confidence soared.
Perhaps he wouldn’t even need to switch to cultivating his hammer martial soul. With just his Blue Silver Grass, he could completely defeat Xiao Yu.
Thus, Tang San could no longer sit still. He immediately stood up and headed outside.
He wanted to test the limits of his martial soul’s toxin absorption and figure out how to adjust his cultivation methods.
Meanwhile, at the academy gate.
Liu Erlong, having just returned from a family meeting, stepped out of the carriage with a flushed face.
She immediately rushed toward her small cabin, eager to see Xiao Yu.
"It’s been so many days since I’ve been back. I’m dying of frustration! I wonder if Xiao Yu is here. No, today Xiao Yu must help me relieve my pent-up emotions! Otherwise, I won’t let anyone else near him!!"
With great anticipation, even when Yin Shu came over to report some important matters, Liu Erlong casually dismissed him.
Right now, she only wanted to vent her emotions with Xiao Yu.
When Liu Erlong returned to the small cabin and saw Xiao Yu eating with Meng Yiran and Zhu Zhuqing, she immediately threw Meng Yiran, Zhu Zhuqing, and Xiao Wu, who was lying on the ground gasping for breath, out of the cabin.
She then closed the door and sat directly on Xiao Yu.
Flames erupted from her body, burning away her clothes.
Seeing that Liu Erlong had even activated her martial soul, Xiao Yu understood her intentions.
Without hesitation, he began to passionately respond to Liu Erlong’s enthusiasm.
Meanwhile, Master, having heard from some teachers that Liu Erlong had returned, immediately headed toward her small cabin.
