Tang San had already been jealous of Oscar's outstanding performance.
And now—even the soul bone that was originally meant for him was gone?
Tang San's eyes widened, anger surging inside him!
He had finally found a ten-thousand-year soul bone that matched his attributes—
Why should it be given to someone else?!
But with so many people watching, he couldn't directly lash out.
He could only suppress his fury and say through clenched teeth,"Brother, why didn't you tell me earlier… As his teacher, I wouldn't fight my disciple over it, would I?"
Those who knew Tang San well sneered inwardly.
Not fight over it? Please.
It wasn't even about your own soul bone—you've robbed Oscar's soul bone before!
Wouldn't fight your disciple?Heh!
Tang Lan helplessly spread his hands.
"The communication soul guide relies on Blue Silver Grass transmission. In the Extreme North, it's freezing cold—where would I find Blue Silver Grass there?"
"Not to mention, we were in the core region. There was no way to contact you."
What could Tang San do?He could only grit his teeth and swallow it down.
Fortunately—
Tang Lan, "feeling guilty," comforted him:"Brother, I've prepared a surprise for you. I'll take you to it later."
Tang San's face instantly brightened.
——If Brother dares say that, it definitely won't be any worse than that soul bone!
"Brother, what are you saying?"
"That soul bone was yours to begin with. Since Xiao Ao needed it more, it's fine that you gave it to him."
"I don't mind at all."
Everyone around nearly rolled their eyes to the sky.
Could he be any more fake?
At the same time, they sighed inwardly—How could such an excellent brother have such a younger brother?
Tang San might just be Tang Lan's only stain in life!
"Bone Uncle," Tang Lan changed the topic, "you saw it too—Xiao Ao's Copy Mirror Sausage requires the user's blood. Could you perhaps… give a little?"
Gu Rong's eyes widened; he glared at Tang Lan unhappily.
"You brat, it's just some blood—why so polite about it?"
Without Tang Lan's "gum-blood trick,"Gu Rong condensed a bone blade and sliced his own wrist.
Tang Lan quickly gathered the blood using his spiritual power, collecting it into a wine pouch—and it was more than half full!
He then activated the Right Leg Bone of the Life Blue Silver Emperor, healing Gu Rong's wound so cleanly that not even a scar was left.
"Bone Uncle, you're too kind," Tang Lan said cheerfully."If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect needs soul spirits anytime soon, you can send the details to Niu Gao—he'll match suitable soul beasts."
Niu Gao stepped forward respectfully and bowed to Gu Rong.
"Greetings, Bone Douluo. I'll send you a list of the available soul beasts shortly."
Gu Rong nodded in satisfaction and patted Tang Lan's shoulder heavily.
"This kid really knows his manners!"
"When I go back later, I'll even have Old Chen give some blood too—don't worry, it'll be more, not less!"
How generous—with someone else's blood, of course.
After some casual chatting—
Tang Lan instructed, "Hall Master Niu, take the others to settle down."
Once Ning Fengzhi and Qian Renxue left—
Zhao Wuji stepped forward with a grim expression.
"Sect Master, that boy who caused trouble earlier truly believed that having the same-type soul bone would improve the success rate of soul spirit fusion!"
"So, even when he realized something was wrong, he didn't speak up."
"That kid! Acting on his own—after today, he'll likely hold a grudge."
"Should we…"
Tang Lan waved his hand to interrupt.
"Report the matter to Dongfang Richu. The Tang Sect's Spirit Transmission Tower will handle it themselves."
"Let's see what he's really capable of."
Zhao Wuji nodded.
Tang Lan turned to Dai Mubai and the others, his gaze pausing briefly on Jing Ling and Shui Yue'er, then at Shui Bing'er.
After some thought—
"Jing Ling, go with Old Zhao and familiarize yourself with the Soul Spirit Research Base. You'll find it useful in the future."
Jing Ling's eyes showed a trace of regret—he knew he wasn't qualified to participate in what came next.
He bowed respectfully and withdrew with Zhao Wuji.
The remaining people—Ning Rongrong and the others—all stared wide-eyed at Tang Lan.
The Sect Master… was about to distribute benefits again?
Xiao Wu, who had recently "cheered herself up," said excitedly,"Brother, are you going to distribute soul bones again?"
Tang Lan flicked her forehead.
"Do you think soul bones grow on cabbage stalks?"
Then—he took out nine soul bones.
"But yes, there are indeed nine here—only two of them are above ten thousand years."
He deliberately paused—waiting until Tang San clearly saw them—before continuing:
"One is a 24,000-year Fire Attribute Right Leg Bone, and it'll go to Mubai."
Dai Mubai's first instinct was to glance at Tang San.
Tang San was staring, mouth open—but when he noticed everyone looking, he quietly shut it again.
The last Flame Lion Right Arm Bone had already proven that he wasn't compatible with fire attributes.
No need to bring more suffering upon himself.
Dai Mubai then stepped forward and accepted the soul bone.
"Thank you, Sect Master, for your reward!"
Tang Lan nodded; seeing that the system didn't respond, he continued—
"The other ten-thousand-year soul bone is a 31,000-year Wind Attribute Right Leg Bone, suitable for Agility-Type soul masters."
"Zhuqing, since you already have a right leg bone, this one goes to Xiao Wu."
Xiao Wu was much more direct—she stepped forward happily to accept it,and gave Tang Lan a sweet smile.
Seeing that, Tang San, who had just opened his mouth, closed it silently again.
——He couldn't possibly snatch it away, could he?
Knowing Xiao Wu's temper, she might really give him a full combo beating.
So he gave up.
Tang Lan's gaze swept over the remaining seven thousand-year soul bones—but then he waved his hand and put them away.
"Thousand-year soul bones no longer match your potential."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
They'd gotten rich—their standards had risen.
Thousand-year soul bones?Not even dogs would want them!
Tang San wanted to speak, but he couldn't find a good excuse—so he could only sigh helplessly.
[System Notification][The host caused Tang San to miss both the 24,000-year and 31,000-year soul bones, granting Dai Mubai and Xiao Wu a boost in personal strength. A small portion of Tang San's luck has been absorbed!][Reward: "External Soul Bone Eight Spider Spears +2788 Years"!]
The Eight Spider Spears tingled—its age advanced to 99,999 years.
Just one year short of reaching 100,000 years.
What's with that awkward number?Was it hinting that he had to devour another Human-Faced Demon Spider to evolve?
Not urgent—Tang Lan kept calm.
Then, seeing the red-faced Tang San, he decided to push for another reward.
"Soon, there will be a great opportunity. I won't participate."
"You'll all rely on your own abilities—whoever can seize it will save years of cultivation."
"Follow me."
The suspense instantly hooked everyone's curiosity.
They followed behind Tang Lan, whispering among themselves.
"Xiao Ao, what kind of great opportunity can make the Sect Master act so mysteriously?" Dai Mubai asked.
Oscar had a guess, but didn't dare to say it out loud.
He looked toward Shui Bing'er.
You're close to the Sect Master—why don't you say it?
Shui Bing'er wasn't stupid enough to expose her man—so she played the riddle master instead:
"It's a great opportunity comparable to Immortal Herbs. Just do your best to seize it."
Good grief!That explanation said everything—and nothing.
In the crowd, Tang San was completely confident—This must be the opportunity Brother mentioned!
"Rely on our own ability?"
Heh—rely on Brother's ability!
Brother must have already arranged everything for me!
This time, I must prove myself—I can't keep falling behind!
Tang San! You can do it!
