Chapter 106: Xiao Wu Is Not Human (Seeking Monthly Tickets, Seeking Subscriptions!)

At this moment, Li Li's upper clothing was completely torn apart, her pale, tender skin appearing before Gu Xuan's eyes; seeing this, Gu Xuan paused for a moment, then hurriedly drove the bad thoughts from his mind.

Gu Xuan instantly reached out and summoned; the Soul Tool flashed with treasure light, a blanket appearing in his hand; Gu Xuan instantly wrapped it around Li Li's front, preventing any spring light from leaking.

Soon after, Li Li opened her eyes; her body felt indescribably comfortable, as if every cell within was cheering and jumping, only her back felt slightly itchy, as if something were extending from behind her.

She could feel the moisture of the soil, also feel the breeze of the surrounding air, but Li Li vaguely sensed that something seemed to have changed.

When she saw the full appearance, her whole body let out a cry of surprise: "Ah!"

She discovered her feet were off the ground, supported by four long purple spider legs lifting her away from the ground, while another four spider legs lightly swayed up, down, left, and right in the air, like arms.

But immediately she reacted, incredulously looking at Gu Xuan: "Big brother, is this... an External Soul Bone?"

Gu Xuan nodded with a smile, saying: "Li Li, your luck is not bad; this is the spider leg of a Human Face Demon Spider, an External Soul Bone."

Upon hearing this, Li Li was also excited beyond words: "It really is an External Soul Bone! Big brother, I now have an External Soul Bone too, and I feel this External Soul Bone has many uses; with it, my strength will receive a terrifying boost!"

Gu Xuan gave Li Li a slight smile and nodded, saying: "This is your opportunity."

Afterwards, Gu Xuan said: "You can try to retract it."

Hearing Gu Xuan's words, Li Li gathered her own soul power and transmitted it into the spine behind her, issuing a recall command to those eight spider legs.

A strange sight appeared: the extended three-meter-long spider legs slowly folded, the two bent segments pressing together, then gradually merging into Li Li's body bit by bit.

Li Li only felt a slight itch on her back, with no discomfort; during this process, her soul power also consumed a little, but not much.

When all the spider legs had finally sunk completely into her back, Li Li could clearly feel that the eight spider legs had not disappeared inside her body, but had transformed into eight strands of strange energy, originating from the spine and adhering to her eight ribs.

Li Li found that these eight spider legs could be used as easily as arms, with no sense of unfamiliarity; Gu Xuan naturally also noticed this.

"Is it because my martial soul is also a Human Face Demon Spider?" Gu Xuan guessed inwardly.

"How is it, what's the harvest?" Gu Xuan asked.

Upon hearing this, Li Li suddenly became excited, walked forward two steps directly, and then... the blanket wrapped around her front slipped off directly.

But Gu Xuan still turned around immediately, his back to Li Li.

"Ah!!" Li Li let out another scream, only then realizing that at some point she was wrapped only in a blanket.

Li Li quickly picked up the blanket to cover her shame, then took out a set of clothes from her Soul Tool and put them on.

Throughout the process, Li Li's pretty face turned crimson; this was still the first time he had shown such a scene before the opposite sex, even though Zuo Yan had pursued her for nearly two years, she had not only refused to agree, the two had never even held hands, yet now Gu Xuan had looked at her continuously twice.

Here there is only Gu Xuan; this blanket can only be from Gu Xuan given to her—this isn't getting two free looks, what is it?

Li Li, who originally admired Gu Xuan greatly, now found it impossible to avoid; having been seen completely by others, how could she face people in the future?

Gu Xuan was also helpless; he had never thought that these Eight Spider Spears would be a clothes‑exploding divine tool, after all his own Sword Dragon Eight Wings need no clothes‑exploding, extending directly from the spine, and there is also a gap of nearly twenty centimeters, entirely connected by soul power.

If others saw it, they'd just see it; but if a girl clung to him desperately, Gu Xuan could compensate her with a child, however Li Li seems to be dating Zuo Yan—how the hell is this supposed to work?

After changing clothes, Li Li's pretty face slightly blushed, she whispered like a mosquito: "Brother, I've changed my clothes."

Upon hearing that, Gu Xuan then turned around, looking at Li Li's deep red face; not to say she's still quite cute, Li Li, although under twelve, indeed has a good figure; although not a childlike face ××, but her foundation is enough to handle Gu Xuan, only Gu Xuan can't lay a hand on her… ah……….

Apparently to conceal the embarrassment, Li Li and Gu Xuan began to introduce their respective gains.

"My soul power has already reached rank thirty‑two, and moreover, when I absorbed the soul ring earlier, for some unknown reason I also absorbed all of the Human Face Demon Spider's toxin into my body, further strengthening my poison."

"The third soul skill granted by the Human Face Demon Spider is called Spider Web Binding; it is a powerful single‑target control ability, also the Human Face Demon Spider's own strongest spider web, and it has optimized the trait of a thousand‑year‑level Human Face Demon Spider that can only use spider webs three times a day—so long as my soul power is sufficient, I can unleash it without limit."

Pausing, Li Li continued: "Of course, the most important thing is that this External Soul Bone has already completely merged with me, perhaps because my martial soul is also a Human Face Demon Spider."

Listening to Li Li's words, Gu Xuan only felt that these Eight Spider Spears were made for him to exist for her; they are not any less useful than in Tang San's hands, are they?

Just as Li Li had finished explaining her gains, the space above Gu Xuan's position rippled; a pitch‑black spatial gate three meters in diameter suddenly appeared, and three figures walked out of it.

Gu Xuan looked up and happened to see Gu Rong, Dragon Lord Meng Shu, and Snake Granny Chao Tian Xiang.

And in Gu Rong's hand he was holding a pinkish object; upon closer look, who else could it be but Xiao Wu?

Gu Xuan witnessed this scene; the members of Shrek Academy naturally saw it as well, especially Tang San, who instantly burst into tears and shouted at the sky: "Xiao Wu!"

I don't know why, but since Gu Rong was holding Xiao Wu like a little chick, both Tang San and the other members of Shrek Academy felt a strange sensation.

Moreover, Meng Shu's gaze toward Xiao Wu also became somewhat different—not the pity for a girl who had just escaped the tiger's mouth, but tinged with a barely perceptible greed.

Gu Xuan gave Gu Rong a slight smile; the eight dragon swords that had originally been rotating around his body recombined behind him into four pairs of sword wings with a wingspan exceeding six meters, and Li Li also retracted her martial soul, following beside Gu Xuan.

"Grandfather, did you rescue this girl without injury?" Gu Xuan directly launched into Oscar‑level acting.

Gu Rong instantly understood, his face turning somewhat unpleasant, and said: "We've all been deceived by her; this girl is not human, she is a soul beast that has taken human form, and that Titan Giant Ape should be her companion."

After Gu Rong finished speaking, he looked toward Meng Shu, who likewise understood and said: "That's right, old man I wouldn't be mistaken either."

After a soul beast assumes human form, as long as it hasn't reached adulthood, basically a Soul Douluo‑level expert can see its true form—let alone Meng Shu, who has already reached rank eighty‑seven.

Previously Meng Shu had not been together with Chao Tian Xiang and the others, so he had no chance to see Xiao Wu, which is why he hadn't recognized her; but when Meng Shu and Chao Tian Xiang chased after them and saw Xiao Wu being held in Gu Rong's hand, they instantly realized she was a transformed soul beast.

Yet when these words reached the ears of the other Shrek Academy members, they thundered like a surprise explosion: "Xiao Wu isn't human?!"
