Chapter 213

After a moment's thought, Ning Fengzhi felt that Gu Xuan's idea was feasible; after all, they would be enemies in the future, so why not nip them in the bud now?

After all, Tang San is a possessor of twin martial souls, and when he grows up he will surely become a major obstacle.

Killing Tang Hao and his son now would not only nip the danger in the bud, but the Clear Sky Sect, now in hiding, would not know of it, and most importantly we could obtain the remaining hidden-weapon crafting method from Tang San's body—three benefits in one.

As for the threefold gain, it naturally targets the Clear Sky Sect; although Tang Hao was expelled from the sect, he is still a disciple, and his son Tang San might one day return to the sect.

If we ever want to unify the continent, the Clear Sky Sect will definitely be a major obstacle, after all they are merely in hiding, not gone; who knows, they might pop out again someday.

But where? Where are Tang Hao and his son located? Where can we obtain that information?

Ning Fengzhi voiced this doubt: "Little Xuan, your idea is feasible, but we cannot pin down the whereabouts of Tang Hao and his son."

Gu Xuan replied: "We can go to the place where I previously discovered a soul bone; after all, that spot has the Blue Silver Emperor's seed, and Tang Hao might not go there."

Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi's eyes lit up and he asked: "Uncle Jian, what do you think?"

Chen Xin nodded and said: "Although doing this is somewhat despicable, for Little Xuan's future and for the future of the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, we ought to take responsibility."

Hearing Chen Xin's words, Gu Xuan felt deeply moved inside.

Afterwards only Chen Xin's voice was heard saying: "Little Xuan, you need not participate in this; tell me that location, and when we return we will make arrangements."

Ning Fengzhi also nodded and said: "Leave such matters to us elders; you just focus on cultivation, striving to break through to Titled Douluo as soon as possible and charge into that realm."

Gu Xuan nodded seriously, then took out a map and told Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi the location, not overlooking even the slightest clue, for having decided to deal with Tang Hao and his son, Gu Xuan would naturally show no mercy.

What if Tang San encounters some special opportunity again? That would merely add an enemy for nothing.

As the protagonist, the most important thing is not to give the antagonist any chance to grow, and Gu Xuan understands this well.

The return journey took nearly a month; on the way, besides exchanging insights with Ning Fengzhi and the others, Gu Xuan secretly gave a few soul bones to several girls so they could absorb them and increase their strength.

However, Gu Xuan did not simply summon all the girls together; he first had Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin return to their own carriages, emptied his own carriage, and then called them one by one.

Since several people from the Seven Treasure Academy and the Tian Dou Royal Academy were already acquainted with Gu Xuan, the occupants of the two carriages also knew each other; only a few males were in one carriage, while Du Gu Yan and the others were in a carriage with five girls.

Oh, right, there is an exception: Zuo Yan went to the carriage of the Tian Shui Academy to deepen his feelings with Shui Bing'er.

Du Gu Yan first pulled Du Gu Yan into the carriage; the other girls looked on enviously, wishing they could also stay with Gu Xuan.

Gu Xuan took Du Gu Yan's soft hand and entered the carriage; alone with Gu Xuan, Du Gu Yan showed no reserve, wearing a slit cheongsam that reached the base of her thighs, she sat directly in Gu Xuan's embrace, her jade feet making Gu Xuan unable to resist playing with them.

Du Gu Yan had long been accustomed to going barefoot, yet her jade feet were flawless, leaving Gu Xuan unable to get enough.

After playing for a while, Gu Xuan took from his Soul Tool a fifty-thousand-year–level Spirit-Congealing Wisdom Skull and handed it to Du Gu Yan.

"Yanzi, this soul bone is yours; absorb it here now." After giving the soul bone to Du Gu Yan, Gu Xuan said.

Du Gu Yan felt some joy upon seeing this soul bone; the Spirit-Congealing Wisdom Skull could be said to be the best of the three reward soul bones, and now Gu Xuan had given it to her.

Although she was delighted, Du Gu Yan was not the type who only knew how to enjoy things for herself.

"This soul bone can be said to be top-notch; you gave it to me, what about you?" Du Gu Yan held the soul bone and asked Gu Xuan.

Gu Xuan smiled faintly: "Soul bones are certainly important, but allocating each one properly is more important; as a Control-type Soul Master who controls subtle things like poison, this soul bone suits you better."

Spirit Condensing Wisdom Skull

Du Gu Yan's appearance was already not bad, putting her on par with Qian Renxue and Ning Rongrong; however, due to her age and attire, she obviously attracted Gu Xuan more.

At this moment, Du Gu Yan's smile was so charming that Gu Xuan could barely hold himself back.

Du Gu Yan knew that every decision Gu Xuan made was the result of careful consideration, so she did not argue; however, she also did not immediately begin absorbing the soul bone.

Only to see Du Gu Yan lean her whole body forward and fall into Gu Xuan's embrace; she reached out a hand to lift his chin, and her warm, jade-like lips pressed directly onto his.

Gu Xuan blinked slightly, wondering if he had been forcibly kissed again.

But before Gu Xuan could retaliate, Du Gu Yan had already withdrawn, smiling faintly: 'This is your reward; you guard me while I now absorb this soul bone.'

Gu Xuan smiled helplessly, but he did not press further, after all there would be plenty of time later to enjoy their world together; there was no rush for this moment.

However, because of that kiss, Gu Xuan felt an inner fire burning at the moment, and could only use cultivation to suppress the heat within.

Afterward, Du Gu Yan placed the soul bone on her head, and began to absorb it under the guidance of her own soul power.

Three hours later, Du Gu Yan slowly opened her eyes; her mental power had greatly increased because of this soul bone, and at the same time her soul power and bodily attributes also improved.

Although the soul bone is not mainly for increasing soul power, its primary function is to remodel a Soul Master's body, elevating that Soul Master's talent to a higher level, and it can also grant an additional powerful skill.

Nevertheless, this Wisdom-Congealed Wisdom Skull reached as high as a fifty-thousand-year grade, raising Du Gu Yan's soul power from level fifty-four to level fifty-six.

Furthermore, due to the increase in her mental power, Du Gu Yan's future cultivation will proceed more smoothly, and the time limit for her to absorb soul rings beyond her level can also be increased again.

This soul skill granted Du Gu Yan a mental attack ability named Mental Shock.

The power of this skill is beyond doubt; as long as the opponent's mental power does not exceed twice Du Gu Yan's own mental power, they will at least be forcibly dazed for one second.

If the opponent's mental power is inferior to Du Gu Yan's, then the opponent is highly likely to directly suffer mental trauma, even becoming an idiot.

The worst case is that the sea of spirit directly bursts, causing the person to die instantly.

After Du Gu Yan finished absorbing the soul bone, she was naturally excited, so she couldn't help but slam Gu Xuan against the wall.

But Du Gu Yan knew that now was not the time for them to be intimate, after all she had already absorbed the soul bone, and others certainly would not be idle.

So the sensible Du Gu Yan asked, 'Xuan, who's next?'

Gu Xuan truly liked Du Gu Yan's sensibility, after all who wouldn't like a considerate and warm older sister?

'Call Rong Rong over.'
