102: Merit and virtue lead to the golden statue entering the capital.

"Luo San Pao... You, what are you doing?"

Yu Xiaogang retreated, his foot hitting the threshold, and he immediately fell backward again, landing hard.

Luo San Pao continued toward him at the same speed.

Propping himself up with his palms, Yu Xiaogang scurried backward on his buttocks while shouting, "Luo San Pao! Don't forget! You are my Spirit..."

As he spoke, Yu Xiaogang summoned his Spirit, and two yellow spirit rings appeared simultaneously.

However, their colors were very faint.

Tang San snapped out of it and stepped forward to support Yu Xiaogang.

"Teacher..."

Yu Xiaogang stood up and glared at Luo San Pao. "Do you still realize that you are my Spirit?!"

Even as he spoke, the colors of the two spirit rings on his body rapidly faded.

First, they turned pale yellow, and soon they transformed into white.

They had actually regressed from hundred-year spirit rings to ten-year spirit rings!

In an instant, he felt as if his strength had been drained again, and his entire weight slumped onto Tang San.

Tang San looked at Yu Xiaogang with concern. "Teacher, what's wrong with you?"

Yu Xiaogang's expression changed drastically as he looked at his two pitiful white spirit rings, a shocking sight. "How is this possible...? And my Soul Power..."

He finally realized that along with the spirit rings, his already meager Soul Power was also changing!

It had actually dropped from a Rank 29 Spirit Grandmaster to the level of a Rank 7 Spirit Scholar!

A Spirit Scholar, to put it bluntly, was just an ordinary person!

They weren't even considered among Spirit Masters.

"Luo luo...!"

A ferocity that wasn't there before appeared in Luo San Pao's large eyes.

Seeing Yu Xiaogang in such a pathetic state, it let out an even more excited cry.

Yu Xiaogang came to his senses and looked at Luo San Pao again; many changes had occurred to its body, and it was now completely a Spirit Beast!

"You... you're no longer a Spirit?!"

Yu Xiaogang was in disbelief.

A person's Spirit could actually detach from themselves?

This was simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!

But the fact had happened... Tang San also realized where the problem lay, his expression awkward.

He had reminded Yu Xiaogang on the way here; would Yu Xiaogang blame him for being a jinx once they returned?

Luo San Pao approached and stopped a meter away.

Yu Xiaogang and Tang San didn't retreat any further; the Believers were behind them.

The Believers, however, were just watching the spectacle, none of them showing any signs of tension or fear.

At the entrance of the temple, they didn't believe any Spirit Beast could cause trouble!

"Luo luo...!"

Luo San Pao opened its mouth, and a sphere of light condensed inside.

The sphere of light was brilliant, accumulating powerful Soul Power.

There was no doubt that Luo San Pao was now a hundred-year Spirit Beast and no longer had any connection to Yu Xiaogang.

And Yu Xiaogang, because of Luo San Pao's detachment, had fallen from the Realm of a Spirit Grandmaster and directly became a Rank 7 Spirit Scholar!

Seeing Luo San Pao's showy light-sphere Spirit Ability, the corner of Yu Xiaogang's mouth twitched violently.

His Spirit wasn't a Waste Spirit!

But now that he knew, it had also left him!

Yu Xiaogang's eyes flickered, and he suddenly reached out, putting on a remorseful face and saying warmly:

"Luo San Pao, I'm sorry for what I did before..."

"I know I was wrong. Come back. From now on, we will be the closest of partners. We've known each other for decades; you won't abandon me, will you?"

Yu Xiaogang said urgently.

If he could make Luo San Pao change its mind and become his Spirit again...

Perhaps he would even have a chance to become a powerhouse!

As long as Luo San Pao was willing... Luo San Pao closed its mouth, "Luo luo...!"

It suddenly turned around, pointing its buttocks at Yu Xiaogang.

"!!!" Yu Xiaogang was shocked and hurriedly said, "Quick, get away—"

As the word "away" left his mouth, it stayed open.

A turbid, dark yellow foul fart suddenly erupted from Luo San Pao's buttocks, forming a ball that shot rapidly into Yu Xiaogang's open mouth.

*Gulp!*

Instantly, Yu Xiaogang's eyes rolled back, and he lost consciousness again, collapsing to his knees and pinning Tang San down as he began to foam at the mouth!

Even a trace of the foul fart, diluted by the air, made the surrounding Believers retreat several meters, all of them looking at Luo San Pao with lingering fear.

This fart... was just too damn smelly!

And Yu Xiaogang actually took a whole mouthful!

Truly a Divine Being!

Just then, a gentle breeze blew by.

It dispersed the foul fart.

Luo San Pao trotted back to the temple entrance and knelt down, its face showing emotions of piety, gratitude, reluctance, and anticipation as it looked pitifully at Yu Mengzhang.

It was entirely thanks to Yu Mengzhang that it could break free from that scumbag Yu Xiaogang!

And now, what it desired most was to follow Yu Mengzhang!

"You need not stay. Bloodline evolution is achieved either through slow purification via cultivation or with the assistance of the essence blood and Dragon Qi of Dragon Clan Spirit Beasts. Go and find your own path."

Yu Mengzhang said indifferently.

Although Luo San Pao's Bloodline was that of a Sacred Giant Dragon—likely the only other existence with the holy attribute on the current Douluo Continent besides the Angel Clan...

...he didn't care and had no intention of raising it.

Luo San Pao kowtowed its head heavily against the ground, "Luo luo...!"

After expressing its gratitude, it left dejectedly.

Seeing it look like a lost puppy, the Believers couldn't help but show expressions of pity.

So pitiful!

Xiao Wu opened her mouth to speak but didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Yu Mengzhang; she could only stomp her foot and chase after Luo San Pao.

The Single-Horned Thunder Dragon followed after them.

Yu Mengzhang closed his eyes, his consciousness returning to Heaven Dou City.

He still had to find out who the "culprit" was behind the nobles' malice toward the Azure Dragon Temple... On the other side, Tang San exhausted himself carrying Yu Xiaogang down the mountain; the strange smell from Yu Xiaogang's mouth made him gag repeatedly along the way, and by the time they reached the carriage, his face had turned pale.

He even had an impulse now—why not just kill this fellow Yu Xiaogang!

It was just too damn smelly!

And since he was carrying Yu Xiaogang, he wouldn't get infected, would he?

If his breath smelled like this when he talked to Xiao Wu in the future, he would truly want to die!

Just then, Yu Xiaogang groaned and woke up.

"Little San..."

Yu Xiaogang snapped his eyes open and, finding himself in the carriage, gasped for air and asked hurriedly, "Little San, where is Luo San Pao?"

Tang San sat at the carriage entrance and kicked open the curtain with his foot.

"Teacher, we've already come down the mountain. I don't know where Luo San Pao went..."

Yu Xiaogang's expression changed, and he said urgently, "How can that be?! That's my Spirit! We can't let it run away! We have to find it and bring it back..."

The more Yu Xiaogang thought about it, the more he regretted it.

The changes in Luo San Pao were clearly a transformation toward a Sacred Giant Dragon!

Wasn't the Spirit Fusion Ability of their Golden Triangle to evolve Luo San Pao into a Sacred Giant Dragon?

If Luo San Pao itself had this tendency, wouldn't he be able to become a Sacred Giant Dragon Spirit Master?

This Spirit would likely be even superior to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon!

Tang San opened his mouth, suddenly at a loss for words.

His teacher was clearly so ordinary, yet why was he so confident?

How could Luo San Pao possibly be willing to be your Spirit again?!"
