Chapter 102: The Little Kitten’s Submission
🕑 Added 2025-04-14 07:12:01 +0000 UTC"Yiran, go ahead and kill that Death Spider. Let’s see if anyone from that third-rate academy dares to stop you!"
Xiao Yu spoke to Meng Yiran, who was standing behind him, her eyes wide with excitement.
"Ah, alright, alright! Yiran thanks Young Master Xiao Yu!"
After saying this, Meng Yiran, who had snapped out of her daze, excitedly walked forward.
A Death Spider!
She hadn’t expected her third soul ring to come from such a rare spirit beast.
This was completely beyond her expectations.
Seeing Meng Yiran, whom they had met not long ago, walk up to claim their prey, Flander and the others were completely stunned.
Had even the granddaughter of the Dragon and Snake Duo fallen for this kid?
"Ah, we managed to snatch a Phoenix-Tailed Crested Snake from the Dragon and Snake Duo before, but who would have thought the tables would turn so quickly? Now, we’ve had an even rarer Death Spider taken from us."
Seeing this, Flander couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
Although he was also angry and unwilling, there was nothing he could do. The situation was against them, and they had no room to argue.
Oscar also lowered his head, not daring to look at Tang San, who was seething with rage.
"Ah, Little San, let’s just leave quickly. It seems this Death Spider isn’t meant for us."
Flander forcibly restrained Tang San, who was filled with rage and had bloodshot eyes, signaling him not to act impulsively.
Although he knew Tang San’s background, even if Tang Hao showed up now, the other side might not give him any face.
After all, the lineup on the other side represented something even more terrifying than the Clear Sky Sect.
In the end, after Flander’s persuasion, Tang San and the others could only reluctantly choose to leave.
After all, the gap in strength between the two sides was too great.
Flander was even considering whether they should return to town and wait until the others had left before coming back to hunt for soul rings.
After Tang San and the others left, Meng Yiran killed the Death Spider and began absorbing its soul ring.
Xiao Yu also activated his innate domain to help Meng Yiran absorb the soul ring.
With the support of Xiao Yu’s innate domain, Meng Yiran’s absorption speed increased significantly!
After absorbing the soul ring, Meng Yiran gained a soul skill called "Venomous Blade."
This soul skill could enhance the attack power of her snake staff by a percentage and also carried the terrifying toxicity of the Death Spider.
After absorbing the soul ring, Xiao Yu bid farewell to Er Ming and left with Xiao Wu.
Er Ming stood in place, watching as Xiao Yu and the others took Xiao Wu away.
Only after seeing that Xiao Wu was about to leave the forest did Er Ming, with a sorrowful expression, return to the direction of the central lake.
Looking at the house where Xiao Wu had once lived, Er Ming stared at it blankly, lost in thought.
"..."
After two years, Xiao Wu returned to the human world. Seeing the bustling town, her previously desolate face was filled with longing.
"Xiao Yu, it’s getting late. Let’s stay here for the night and set off tomorrow!"
Dugu Bo looked at the sky and noticed that it was only an hour or two until nightfall, so he suggested.
Xiao Yu, Sword Douluo, and the others had no objections.
Thus, the group booked several rooms at the most luxurious inn in town.
Since there were plenty of rooms available, Dugu Bo generously booked one for each person.
No one objected.
They weren’t short on money, so the cost of accommodation wasn’t an issue.
The older generation returned to their rooms to rest after booking them.
As for Xiao Yu and the others, they naturally couldn’t sit still and decided to go out and have some fun.
Hearing that they could go out and play, Xiao Wu’s face lit up with anticipation.
After all, it had been over two years since she last went shopping.
But then Xiao Wu suddenly remembered she had no money.
Back then, she had entrusted her money to Brother San, and when she left in a hurry, she hadn’t taken it back.
There was no nearby Spirit Hall branch where she could collect her stipend.
For a moment, Xiao Wu was torn between wanting to go out and play and not wanting to borrow money from Xiao Yu.
After all, if it weren’t for this bastard Xiao Yu, she wouldn’t have had to leave Brother San!
However, Xiao Yu seemed to notice Xiao Wu’s dilemma.
With a wave of his hand, he casually tossed her a money bag.
"As long as you follow me properly, not only will your Da Ming and Er Ming be safe, but your Brother San will also be unharmed."
Looking at the money bag Xiao Yu had thrown her, and the glittering gold spirit coins inside, Xiao Wu’s eyes instantly lit up.
She had never seen so much money before.
Even when she collected her stipend from the Spirit Hall, the most she had ever seen was ten gold spirit coins.
At this moment, Xiao Wu suddenly had an unbelievable thought: following Xiao Yu might actually be better than following Brother San.
However, as soon as this thought arose, Xiao Wu immediately suppressed it.
"No, no, Xiao Wu, how can you think that?! Brother San is the one who treats you the best!"
"..."
After that, Xiao Yu took the girls out of the inn and strolled around the town.
As they walked, the group temporarily split up.
Although they separated, they didn’t go too far, staying within about ten meters of each other.
This way, they could quickly support each other if any danger arose.
"Xiao Yu, there’s something I need to tell you in advance... I don’t want to deceive you..."
As they passed by a hairpin stall, Zhu Zhuqing, who had been following behind Xiao Yu, spoke with a serious expression.
"What is it?"
"It’s about my background and the troubles I’m currently facing. I know you have a powerful background, with several Title Douluo protecting you, but I still feel that I shouldn’t bring unnecessary trouble to you or your elders because of me..."
Zhu Zhuqing rubbed her fingers together, speaking with a downcast expression.
Before she could finish, Xiao Yu reached out and patted Zhu Zhuqing’s fluffy little head, interrupting her while smiling softly.
"Oh, if you’re talking about the issue with your sister, that’s nothing. As long as you’re by my side, even if the Star Luo Emperor himself comes, he won’t be able to do anything to me! Offending me for your sake? I believe the Star Luo royal family isn’t foolish enough to do something like that."
The trouble Zhu Zhuqing was facing was nothing compared to the affection points and rewards Xiao Yu could gain from her.
After all, this matter was essentially a battle for the throne between the princes, and it mainly concerned Dai Mubai, not Zhu Zhuqing. Zhu Zhuqing was just collateral.
Once Dai Mubai died and Dai Weisi successfully cleared all obstacles to ascend the throne, Xiao Yu believed Dai Weisi wouldn’t be foolish enough to specifically target Zhu Zhuqing, who was under the protection of a Title Douluo.
As he spoke, Xiao Yu casually picked up a cat-shaped hairpin and placed it on Zhu Zhuqing’s head.
Zhu Zhuqing’s face turned slightly red as she allowed Xiao Yu to play with her hair.
Seeing how naturally it suited her, Xiao Yu nodded and bought it on the spot.
"Boss, I’ll take all of these."
