65: Chapter 65 Xiao Wu's Top-Level Understanding, Tang Hao's Threat
As long as Xiao Wu's favorability increases to 70, the brought skills will also upgrade accordingly, and they will upgrade again upon reaching 80.
Therefore, this skill still has a lot of plasticity.
Xiao Wu just kept hugging Su Ling like this, her tears falling continuously. Perhaps she had suffered a great deal of grievances during this period, and at this moment, it was released with Su Ling.
"Brother Su, I... I feel like Brother has changed. Why do they care so much about that Dai Mubai, as if I am redundant?" Xiao Wu suddenly said.
"Uh, this... you saw it just now, perhaps there are feelings between them too." Su Ling said.
Xiao Wu thought of the conversation between the bearded man and the woman just now; they had another man in between. She already understood this relationship.
"Ah, could it be that Brother, he likes..."
"No wonder he has always treated me as a younger sister all these years." Xiao Wu suddenly realized, instantly grasping the key point.
"Maybe... maybe so!" Su Ling said.
[Ding... Xiao Wu's favorability +3, obtained white treasure chest *2]
"Brother Su, thank you!"
"You know my identity. I want to save these Soul Beasts. Can you help me?" Xiao Wu said.
"Of course I can, I support you." Su Ling said.
"Thank you, Brother Su. Humans hunting Soul Beasts is unchangeable; in order to become stronger, it cannot be stopped, but I also don't want them to abuse these Soul Beasts like this."
"It's fine to hunt a suitable Soul Beast when you need a spirit ring, but don't kill indiscriminately, or even trade Soul Beasts."
Xiao Wu was very angry. Su Ling didn't say anything more, just listening to Xiao Wu vent her emotions.
"Brother Su, do you have a way to take them back to the Spirit Beast Forest?" Xiao Wu said.
"Xiao Wu, let's treat their injuries first, then send them back to the Misty Forest." Su Ling said.
After speaking, Su Ling took out a bottle of healing Medicinal Pill and another bucket of water to dissolve it.
"Xiao Wu, let them drink this medicinal water, then bandage their injured parts."
"However, Xiao Wu, can you make them all obedient?"
"I can!"
Thinking of this, Xiao Wu actually took down the Yearning Heartbroken Red that Su Ling had given her.
What Su Ling didn't expect was that Xiao Wu could really communicate simply with these Soul Beasts.
Feeding them medicine, bandaging; in a short while, all twenty-something Soul Beasts had been treated.
It was at this moment that Su Ling discovered someone outside the house, so he warned: "Xiao Wu, that last person should have returned."
"He's back?"
"Let me go kill him, Brother Su, you don't need to do it." Xiao Wu had long wanted to take action.
Bang... The courtyard gate was pushed open!
"I'm back. I was lucky today; this eighty-plus-year-old Soul Beast sold for thirty gold coins. Made a small profit. Eh..."
The man had just entered the door when he discovered the corpses lying on the ground.
Before he could react, Xiao Wu's Spirit Ability, Waist Bow, was unleashed.
The opponent was also a Spirit Ancestor, but his Soul Power did not exceed level 45.
But just as he was about to counterattack, he suffered Su Ling's Mental Shock the next moment.
Of course, Su Ling's Mental Shock was just to disrupt him, making it easier for Xiao Wu to attack.
For these Spirit Ancestors, Su Ling's Mental Energy was simply a dimensionality-reduction strike.
In a short while, this man was knocked to the ground by Xiao Wu, his Aura completely vanished.
Su Ling waved his hand, putting all the Soul Beasts into the System space.
"Xiao Wu, let's go out and release them all." Su Ling said.
"Okay!" Xiao Wu nodded.
In the afternoon, the two left Star Luo City together, but Su Ling still put on a disguise when leaving.
Su Ling also explained the reason for the disguise to Xiao Wu, and Xiao Wu expressed her agreement.
By evening, Su Ling and Xiao Wu had already arrived at the outskirts of the Misty Forest.
"Xiao Wu, let's do it here."
Su Ling waved his hand, and the twenty-something Soul Beasts were released by him.
"Hurry back." Xiao Wu said.
The twenty-something Soul Beasts ran into the jungle together, and in a short while, they all disappeared before Su Ling and Xiao Wu.
"Brother Su, thank you so much." Xiao Wu said again.
"Xiao Wu, what are you thanking me for? Don't say that in the future." Su Ling said.
[Ding... Xiao Wu's favorability +5, obtained white treasure chest *3, purple treasure chest *1]
Favorability increased again.
"Brother Su, it seems there are quite a few Spirit Masters in Star Luo City doing this business. Can we...?" Xiao Wu made a killing gesture.
"As long as you are happy, I will help you." Su Ling said.
"Brother Su, thank you so... alright, I won't say those two words. Let's hurry back, otherwise the Star Luo City gates will close." Xiao Wu said.
"Mm!"
The two returned to Star Luo City again at the fastest speed.
Su Ling returned to the hotel, while Xiao Wu returned to the Star Luo Royal Academy first.
Inside the Star Luo Royal Academy, after returning, Xiao Wu originally wanted to go see Tang San.
But when she arrived at the door of Tang San's dormitory, she was blocked by Yu Xiaogang.
"Xiao Wu, Little San is in seclusion for treatment; you cannot enter for the time being."
But at this moment, Dai Mubai walked out from inside.
"Great Master, Little San is fine now, I'll head back first." Dai Mubai said.
Xiao Wu was stunned, asking suspiciously: "He can go in? I can't?"
"Uh, alright, you go in and take a look, just don't disturb Little San." Yu Xiaogang said.
Walking in quietly, Xiao Wu looked at Tang San sitting on the bed. A rich Aura of life came over. On Tang San's leg, Xiao Wu saw a Spirit Bone that seemed to be fusing with Tang San's right leg.
A hundred-thousand-year Right Leg Bone?
This!
A hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast, isn't that what she is?
Suddenly, Xiao Wu smelled a dangerous Aura.
The more she looked at Tang San, the more unfamiliar he felt.
Xiao Wu simply exited the room and returned to her own dormitory.
"I feel increasingly uncomfortable here. In a few days, I must ask Brother again what exactly is wrong with him."
A night passed quietly!
Early the next morning, Xiao Wu went to look for Su Ling.
And that day, Su Ling followed Xiao Wu to destroy six dens selling Soul Beasts, rescuing 136 ten-year and hundred-year Soul Beasts.
When all the Soul Beasts were put into the Spirit Beast Forest, it was obvious that Xiao Wu was especially happy.
[Ding... Xiao Wu's favorability +2, obtained white treasure chest *1]
[Ding... Xiao Wu's favorability +6, obtained white treasure chest *2, yellow treasure chest *1, purple treasure chest *1]
[Ding... Xiao Wu's favorability is greater than or equal to 70]
[Goddess: Xiao Wu]
[Goddess Composite Value: 94]
[Current Favorability: 76 (A little bit of liking)]
[Binding Effect: The host can obtain 20% of the bound Goddess's daily Cultivate effect, which will not reduce the bound Goddess's Cultivate speed.]
[Bound Skill: Teleportation (Maximum Teleportation distance is 20 meters, but cannot ignore space)]
[Bound Skill: Invincible Defense (Duration 3 seconds, cannot be broken below Divine-Grade, but own attack power will decrease by 80% during the Invincible Defense time)]
This was actually Invincible Defense, another very good skill. It was very useful and could save one's life at critical moments, but it was a pity that attack power was weakened too much during Invincible Defense.
As expected of the female lead, the benefits obtained from her were truly extraordinary.
76 favorability points; it seems it will be possible to grind the favorability to over 80 in the near future.
"Let's go, Xiao Wu, let's go back." Su Ling said.
"Mm, okay, Brother Su." Xiao Wu nodded happily, following beside Su Ling the whole way. She was very happy, seemingly even happier than when she was beside Tang San.
Could it be that I have fallen for Brother Su?
But Brother Su already has Zhuqing. Xiao Wu, how can you change your affections? No, you can't be that kind of person.
Mm... I don't seem to count as a real person yet.
Then how am I supposed to face Zhuqing?
I don't like Brother Su; I just admire him. That's right, just admire him. We are just best friends.
Yes, that's right, that's it.
The two returned to Star Luo City, and Su Ling prepared to escort Xiao Wu back to the Star Luo Royal Academy.
But after escorting Xiao Wu inside, Su Ling discovered a tall figure wearing slightly worn-out clothing, with their head covered.
Could it be that Tang Hao has come?
"Xiao Wu, we've arrived at the academy, hurry and go in." Su Ling said.
"Brother Su, you should also go back and rest early. We'll see each other tomorrow." Xiao Wu said.
"Alright, tomorrow we'll go to Heaven Dou City and have a good stroll, eat well, drink well, and buy good things! I'll pay." Su Ling said with a smile.
"Heehee, that's great!"
[Ding... Xiao Wu's favorability +1, obtained white treasure chest *1]
Xiao Wu was very happy and couldn't help but give Su Ling another hug.
After entering the academy, Xiao Wu kept looking back at Su Ling outside, taking three steps and looking back once, and it took a while before she disappeared from Su Ling's sight.
77 favorability now. The System really doesn't lie.
'A little bit of liking' had caused Xiao Wu's attitude and every word and action toward him to change.
And the reason Xiao Wu was able to increase her favorability so quickly was partly due to the assistance from those who sold Soul Beasts, and also because cracks had begun to appear in Xiao Wu's feelings for Tang San, and these cracks were constantly widening.
Su Ling also turned around and walked toward the hotel, but after walking only a few steps, that tall figure who had wrapped their body tightly blocked Su Ling's path.
"Su Ling, stay away from Xiao Wu. If you don't want to die, get out of Star Luo City immediately."
The voice was very deep and resonant, and when speaking, it carried mental suppression. Who else could this be but Tang Hao?
Tang Hao had actually discovered Xiao Wu's identity as a Soul Beast long ago and might have already regarded her as one of his own.
In the last few days, perhaps Su Ling and Xiao Wu had been too close, especially since Xiao Wu had just taken the initiative to hug Su Ling, and had left with great reluctance, looking back every few steps. This made Tang Hao feel that it was uncontrollable.
Therefore, Tang Hao took the initiative to come find Su Ling, and it was very likely that Tang Hao also knew that Su Ling knew about Xiao Wu being a Soul Beast, which is why he came to warn Su Ling.
According to Tang Hao's understanding, under his Aura, Su Ling would definitely be obedient and bow his head.
However, to his surprise, Su Ling spoke loudly: "Who the hell are you? Do you need to manage my affairs?"
Su Ling looked Tang Hao straight in the eye, not retreating a single step.
He also didn't expect that Tang Hao would actually come to threaten him, but Su Ling really didn't take this threat.
After all, at this moment, Su Ling also had several means of life-saving and escape, just right to try them out!
Absolutely cannot be cowardly in front of Tang Hao!
