Chapter 124: To the Far North Again!

Inside another room.

Xu Nian'an pressed closely against Jiang Nannan, the two whispering to each other.

"Nan Nan, this soul bone is taken from a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Jade Rabbit. Don't worry about the source; after successfully absorbing it, you will likely gain two soul skills."

Upon hearing Xu Nian'an's words, Jiang Nannan's eyes widened instantly.

"A hundred-thousand-year soul bone, two soul skills!"

Xu Nian'an nodded, and when he looked at Jiang Nannan again, he found that she had begun to hesitate.

"Would this be too..."

He reached out and ruffled Jiang Nannan's hair.

"It won't be. What others have, you shall have, and what others do not have, I will do my best to obtain for you."

【Ding, congratulations to the host, goddess Jiang Nannan's favorability increased by one! (Ninety-one!)】

【Reward: Level 9 Soul Guidance Device Blueprint 3!】

Hearing the cold system notification sound, Xu Nian'an trembled all over.

Level 9 Soul Guidance Device Blueprint 3!!!

"You really are my good treasure."

Mwah mwah mwah mwah~~~

After kissing Jiang Nannan's head several times, Xu Nian'an extended his right hand to personally untie the gold silk for her.

"Nian'an, I heard that fusing with a soul bone causes many strange changes."

"Why do I feel my body warming up while holding it?"

Hearing this, Xu Nian'an looked up, his movements pausing just as he had untied the gold silk on her right leg and was about to do something.

"Cough cough... Let me... Holy crap."

He saw that the Jade Rabbit Right Leg Bone in Jiang Nannan's hands was continuously releasing soul power, drawing upon the soul power within Jiang Nannan's body.

This... this was resonance.

"It seems its attributes are very suitable for you. Try fusing with it?"

Hum! Red!

Suddenly, a white light began to shine, and before long, a violent red aura overwhelmed the white light.

"Mm... hnn~"

As this strange sound from Jiang Nannan fell, Xu Nian'an almost couldn't help but do some strange things again.

No, this cannot go on; if it continues like this, I will eventually lose control.

He exited the room, leaving the door ajar because he would need to check on her later.

He arrived at Tang Ya's room nearby, where Tang Ya was holding a Ten-thousand-year Cloud Leopard Right Leg Bone, not knowing how to proceed.

Tap tap tap~

Xu Nian'an walked in, and Tang Ya looked up.

"Elder... Elder Xu, how should I..."

Walking to Tang Ya's side, Xu Nian'an slowly sat down cross-legged.

"Relax. Absorbing this soul bone will likely provide you with a speed-type soul skill. By then, as a Control System user, you will have an extra means of self-preservation."

Hearing this, Tang Ya nodded.

Xu Nian'an extended his right hand and touched Tang Ya's thigh.

"Elder Xu, you..."

Tang Ya's voice began to change; she gripped Xu Nian's right hand, lowered her head, and her pretty face was already flushed red.

"Not now... not now, and besides... Nan Nan is still next door."

She did not reject him.

It seems his presence over these past few months had been deeply imprinted in Tang Ya's mind, equal to... or perhaps even surpassing Beibei.

This is the benefit of having strength, money, resources, and power.

Don't talk about Tang Ya being snobbish or anything; without these things, you wouldn't even be able to get close enough to her.

"If not now, then when?"

Hearing Xu Nian'an's mutter, Tang Ya gripped Xu Nian'an's hand tighter and lowered her head further.

"Hehe... just joking."

Xu Nian'an moved again, removing Tang Ya's boots and white silk stockings, and placed the Cloud Leopard Right Leg Bone on Tang Ya's right leg.

"You should sense it like this."

Tang Ya looked up, her eyes shimmering with tears; she really... she really.

If Xu Nian'an had truly done that to her just now, Tang Ya really wouldn't have known what to do.

Xu Nian'an was powerful, handsome... he helped her revive the Tang Sect and even gave her a ten-thousand-year soul bone; Tang Ya couldn't say how she could refuse Xu Nian'an.

What reason would she have to refuse Xu Nian'an?

If Xu Nian'an were to force it, Tang Ya would likely grit her teeth and endure it in silence, fearing Jiang Nannan might hear.

"Alright, alright, stop crying, hurry up and sense it."

As he spoke, Xu Nian'an stood up. Tang Ya looked up; under the radiance of the light, Xu Nian'an was so brilliant and perfect!

【Ding, congratulations to the host, goddess Tang Ya's favorability critical hit, increased by ten!】

【Ding, congratulations to the host, goddess Tang Ya's favorability toward you increased by one! (Fifty!)】

【Reward: Myriad Worlds Item Lottery chance one! Crafting technique increased by ten! Blueprint construction, skill modification increased by one!】

In his mind, the constant chiming of notifications sounded like beautiful music.

Looking at Tang Ya before him, Xu Nian'an smiled; if it weren't for the fact that now was not the right time, Xu Nian'an would certainly have given her the same treatment as Jiang Nannan.

The sun set in the west.

Xu Nian'an watched, slightly dazed, his mind constantly calculating and thinking.

He had reached Spirit Power Level 40.

His fourth soul ring had yet to be settled.

Should he go to the Star Dou Great Forest, or... the Extreme North?

His First Martial Soul had attack, control, and defense; what it lacked now was just movement speed and a means of rapid attack.

"Chi Wang?"

"The Titan Snow Demon King, or the Ice Jade Empress Scorpion?"

It was worrying; Chi Wang's attributes clashed a bit with his own, though it would indeed be quite good for the Vermilion Bird Martial Soul.

"Ah!!!"

Just as Xu Nian'an was pondering exactly who he needed to hunt, a shrill scream suddenly struck.

Turning back, it was Tang Ya's room.

Xu Nian'an did not dare to linger and quickly entered.

Just as he entered, Xu Nian'an discovered that wisps of black energy were surging from Tang Ya's right leg, and a devouring power had appeared.

"Damn it, this is...!"

No, at least now was not the time; raising his hand, blue soul power condensed as Xu Nian'an tried to suppress this power.

"You won't be able to suppress it for long like this."

In his mind, the voice of Electrolux rang out.

"Such beautiful power, why seal it away..."

Electrolux was puzzled.

"In this world, there is no good or evil, nor right or wrong; there is only whether it is worth it or not."

A gray light flashed in Xu Nian'an's eyes, and immediately, the devouring power quickly surrounded Xu Nian'an; with a point of his right finger, the devouring power swallowed the soul bone, then slowly subsided.

After finishing all this, Xu Nian'an slowly calmed the leaping mental power in his body.

"It seems it is time to lay out a plan against the Holy Spirit Cult, or rather, the evil Soul Masters!"

Looking at the fish-belly white light slowly brightening at the edge of the sky, plus the slowly waking Jiang Nannan and Tang Ya, Xu Nian'an breathed a sigh of relief.

"Congratulations, Nan Nan, you've broken through to Spirit Power Level 30; let's ask for leave and go to the Extreme North."

Jiang Nannan had just woken up when Xu Nian'an appeared before her.

The next day, he asked Zhou Yi for leave, made a round at Yan Shaozhe's, and took a trip to Xian Lin'er's to get books on the knowledge of Level 4 Soul Guidance Devices.

Ma Xiaotao had been busy with something recently because she was about to enter the Inner Court, and she was nowhere to be seen.

He found Zhang Lexuan to pick up Xiong Er; he didn't know why, but Zhang Lexuan liked it especially, along with Han Ruoruo, Wu Ming, and the others.

Ye Yihan had recently taken an elder as her master and was cultivating by their side.

However, before leaving, Xu Nian'an found Dai Yaoheng.

"I need a few people who have a penchant for the same sex."

He got straight to the point; Dai Yaoheng's expression changed, but thinking of befriending Xu Nian'an, he still did it.

Xu Nian'an found the Healing Department, Xu Sanshi's ward, sent everyone away, and nodded to the three burly men.

"The person inside cannot move their body but is conscious; serve them well, and there will be no shortage of benefits for you. If anything happens, I will take full responsibility; no one will see that you came here today."

"Ah!!!!!"

Xu Nian'an had long since mentally sealed off this area, and the sound could not get out.

Three hours later, the few men walked out feeling refreshed, and Xu Nian'an nodded.

Everything returned to normal, as if nothing had ever happened.

Next was his own fourth soul ring!

(PS: Checking in; there won't be any accidents with the fourth soul ring, no filler, it will be very fast.)
