Exactly one month had passed since they set out.
Yu Xiaogang returned to Heaven Dou City.
Gazing at the bustling streets and the Kaiyuan Academy sign gleaming brightly in the distance, Yu Xiaogang's eyes drifted slightly.
The trip to the City of Martial Souls had unexpectedly, and unsurprisingly, yielded no results.
Bibi Dong had learned of Tang San's true identity through some channel, even knowing about Tang Hao. Not only did she fail to obtain the Twin Martial Soul cultivation method, but she also incurred the other's wrath. They had a huge argument, severing their past relationship completely.
He had failed to gain anything and lost a great deal.
He had to face the fact that his family was ashamed of him, Liu Erlong had moved on, and there was no trust left between him and his disciples.
Bibi Dong's affection was almost his only escape route. If it were still there, maybe he could have saved his life someday.
"To Blue Tyrant Academy."
Ordering the coachman, Yu Xiaogang lowered the curtain, his gaze hardening.
Bibi Dong was unrealistic. That woman was ruthless. After ascending to the position of Pope, she directly purged the remaining direct descendants of the Angel Clan.
Such a bloody style...
Wanting to use her name, even someone as shameless as himself couldn't help but be on edge, fearing that he might be sacrificed for saying the wrong thing at any moment.
In that case, he might as well focus on bluffing Tang San.
Compared to flirting with the strong, playing with a fool was easier and more reassuring.
Today was the final deadline given by Bing Qing Yujie. If he couldn't produce what the other party wanted, he would have to face Tang Dahammer's big hammer.
However, Das was not at all panicked.
Because he had decided to tell a lie, directly deceiving his disciple by saying he had already obtained the Twin Martial Soul cultivation method from Bibi Dong.
Then he would just make up something plausible, claiming it was the highest secret of the City of Martial Souls.
Although Das had told countless lies in his life, he considered this one to be the most perfect.
First, the Tang family and the City of Martial Souls were mortal enemies, with no possibility of reconciliation. Tang San would have no way of learning the truth from Bibi Dong.
Second, the crisis of the Twin Martial Souls would only erupt in the late stages, when attaching the final few soul rings to the second martial soul.
There was no need to worry about being exposed in the short term.
Furthermore, even if it did erupt, what threat would a dead Tang San pose?
In the center of Chengying Lake, beneath the Phoenix Nest, Nangong Lingyun was sprawled on a recliner, eyes half-closed, his expression supremely content.
Only he knew how comfortable it was when the sun was setting, and the warm, yet not overly hot, sunlight mixed with a gentle breeze.
Nearby, Zhu Lanling, Zhu Zhuqing's aunt, would occasionally use a bamboo skewer to feed him a crystal grape, a slice of apple, or a piece of seedless watermelon from the fruit platter.
Compared to the young girl Zhu Zhuqing, the adult aunt was even more pleasing to the eye, her exaggerated curves providing a strong visual impact.
Especially when he could watch a group of students exhausted and drenched in sweat, seeing the combination of longing and angry glares, the triple joy made the experience absolutely perfect.
Suddenly, Nangong Lingyun sat up from his chair, a gleam of excitement flashing in his eyes.
"Hmm, Yu Xiaogang is back?"
It had been a whole month since he'd been able to mess with Tang San, Tang Hao, or, more importantly, the big shit. Aside from the increased favorability from a few girls, his enjoyment had almost ground to a halt.
He wasn't used to it, and today marked the thirtieth day of missing the feeling of tormenting the gang.
"You supervise them and make sure they continue training. No slacking."
After instructing Zhu Lanling, Nangong Lingyun's figure vanished in an instant.
The next moment, on the street not far from the Blue Tyrant Academy's gate, watching Yu Xiaogang's carriage speeding towards him without stopping, a certain someone couldn't help but curl his lips.
Facing Tang San's fatal threat, and without obtaining the Twin Martial Soul cultivation method, he still dared to return so brazenly.
Gangzi, you're really planning to fool Xiao San, aren't you?
To trick him into believing you've already obtained the Spirit Hall's secret manual, and then just make up something similar to get by? That wouldn't do, the secrets of cultivating a second martial soul are so simple, what if you accidentally guessed them right?
Nangong Lingyun saw right through Yu Xiaogang's thoughts.
An old con artist, a habitual offender, would have hardly any other options when faced with this situation.
The carriage was about to enter Blue Tyrant Academy.
Nangong Lingyun didn't hesitate any longer. A faint light flashed on his body, and he transformed into a mysterious man completely shrouded in a black robe, including his eyes.
Then, he directly used spatial transfer to enter Gangzi's carriage, pulled out a thin booklet from his soul guide, and handed it over, saying:
"Yu Xiaogang, someone asked me to give this to you.
Remember, I, this booklet, and everything recorded in it have nothing to do with the Pope."
After speaking, before the big turd could react, he vanished instantly without a trace.
A stranger suddenly appeared in front of him, and Yu Xiaogang was scared stiff on the spot.
His eyes were filled with terror, but he quickly covered his mouth, daring not to make a sound.
However, when he received the item from the other person and saw the words "Extreme Soul Ring Calculation Method and the Essentials of Twin Martial Soul Cultivation" on it, he trembled with excitement.
He almost couldn't stop himself from bursting out laughing.
It was a sudden turn of events, a breakthrough!
He had already planned to fabricate a fake one, but unexpectedly, at the last moment, the real thing arrived, and it was even written by the only perfected Twin Martial Soul in the world.
Moreover, it included not only the cultivation method for the second martial soul but also the extreme soul ring calculation formula.
Indeed, the Pope still loved him.
That sentence, "Remember, it has nothing to do with the Pope," was directly translated by Gangzi as, "This is the Pope giving it to you, but you must keep it secret."
Without hesitation, the jailer, Yu Xiaogang, immediately began to read.
The more he read, the more excited he became, with a burning light in his eyes, his fists clenching and then relaxing repeatedly.
He exclaimed excitedly, "So that's how it is! It's actually so simple!"
The total lifespan of soul rings that a human body can withstand has a maximum limit. For a single martial soul, it's three hundred thousand years, while for Twin Martial Souls, it can reach seven hundred thousand years.
If this number is exceeded, one might not be able to withstand the energy impact and explode.
The Twin Martial Souls that died in the past did so because they were too ambitious, wanting to attach all soul rings of fifty thousand years or more to their second martial soul.
"The correct way is to cultivate both martial souls together.
I was so stupid; I should have thought of it earlier. Nangong Lingyun cultivated his second martial soul in advance.
He has a Title Douluo as a protector, so he couldn't have wasted his potential for no reason."
