Chapter 75: Tang Hao's Arrival, Spirit Hall Lays in Wait!
After selecting the two rewards from this livestream Q&A session, namely the External Soul Bone · Mirage Dragon Pearl and the Spearmanship · Annihilation from the world of Swallowed Star, Lin Yu received his rewards and then made up an excuse to leave the Seven Dormitories.
He headed to a secluded garden next to the dormitory building.
Taking advantage of the cover of the surrounding trees, Lin Yu took out the External Soul Bone · Mirage Dragon Pearl from the system's warehouse.
The External Soul Bone · Mirage Dragon Pearl appeared as a jade-white bone pearl, covered with mysterious runes that emitted a faint, shimmering white light.
According to the system, the fusion location for this soul bone was the Adam's apple.
Once this soul bone was fused into the Adam's apple,
Lin Yu could use the soul skill to emit the Mirage Dragon Qi.
The Mirage Dragon Qi could shape anything, and disguising one's identity would be a piece of cake!
After placing the External Soul Bone · Mirage Dragon Pearl in front of his Adam's apple,
Lin Yu infused soul power into the pearl.
The soul bone instantly transformed into a warm current, flowing into the Adam's apple.
After merging with the soul bone,
Lin Yu infused his Eternal Life Qi into the Mirage Dragon Pearl and activated the Mirage Dragon Qi.
In an instant, Lin Yu felt a strange flow of air release from his Adam's apple.
When he expelled the air, it took the form of white mist.
Seeing the white mist, Lin Yu focused his mind and controlled the flow of air to move toward a flower in the nearby flowerbed, wrapping it up.
To his imagination,
The Mirage Dragon Qi transformed the flower into a bird, which looked entirely real, alive, and even emitted bird calls.
However, the bird still had a flower stem beneath it, making it somewhat odd.
At this point, Lin Yu had an idea.
Since the Mirage Dragon Qi could shape anything, could it make things invisible if it shaped air?
After testing it out, Lin Yu hurriedly went to the back mountain.
On the back mountain, Lin Yu used the External Soul Bone · Supreme Bone to create a second avatar.
After using the Mirage Dragon Qi from the External Soul Bone · Mirage Dragon Pearl to make this avatar, named Ta Qing, invisible,
Lin Yu commanded the avatar to use the Speed Water Flow technique and went to hide beneath the dormitory, keeping an eye on the room where Yu Xiaogang was located on the fifth floor.
Lin Yu wanted to see,
if Spirit Hall's assassination attempt could actually take down Yu Xiaogang and the father-son duo of Tang Hao and Tang San.
After sending Ta Qing to monitor Yu Xiaogang,
Lin Yu used his remaining soul power to transform into Mirage Dragon Qi, creating a protective film around himself.
Returning to the Seven Dormitories,
Lin Yu approached Xiao Wu, who was still chatting happily with Wang Sheng and the other children.
He also wrapped Xiao Wu in a layer of protective Mirage Dragon Qi.
Since the Mirage Dragon Qi was at a high level, though it wasn't said to come from any particular world,
just the existence of the Mirage Dragon made it powerful enough to overpower even the weakest of cultivation worlds, far surpassing Douluo Continent.
Thus, Xiao Wu didn't notice Lin Yu's actions.
As for why Lin Yu did this, he knew that Tang Hao would come to find Yu Xiaogang soon and was just adding an extra layer of protection for Xiao Wu.
...
While Lin Yu was making his preparations,
Tang Hao had already set out from Holy Soul Village with Tang San.
Spirit Hall's group was also moving.
However, since Spirit Hall was farther from Nuoding City, they arrived there first.
But because they weren't sure exactly where Tang Hao was coming from,
Spirit Hall's group hid near Nuoding Academy.
Once they saw Tang Hao approach Nuoding Academy and confirmed his direction,
under Bibi Dong's leadership, they quickly headed to the forest in the direction Tang Hao had come from,
planning to wait for him and ambush him when he returned with his son.
As for why they didn't lie in wait at Nuoding Academy, it was because of the destructive power of Title Douluo.
If they ambushed inside Nuoding Academy, not only would Nuoding Academy be affected,
but most of Nuoding City would be devastated by the battle.
This was something Spirit Hall didn't want to see.
While Spirit Hall was aware of Tang Hao's arrival,
Lin Yu had no idea.
Thanks to the Ta Qing avatar hiding beneath the dormitory using the Mirage Dragon Qi,
after waiting for more than ten minutes,
Lin Yu saw a figure suddenly leap from behind the dormitory building to the roof.
In the next second, the figure arrived in front of Yu Xiaogang's room.
Now, Lin Yu could clearly see who it was.
The person was a middle-aged man wearing ragged clothes, with messy hair, an ordinary appearance, and an unkempt beard, giving him a disheveled, desolate aura.
However, when Lin Yu saw this man,
both he and the Ta Qing avatar hidden nearby couldn't help but narrow their eyes.
Because both of them knew,
this man was definitely the legendary Tang Hao, the Haotian Douluo!
Under Lin Yu's watch, Tang Hao pushed open the door to Yu Xiaogang's room and entered.
Inside the room,
Yu Xiaogang had already packed his books and materials into his soul tool and was eagerly writing in a notebook, excitedly recording the future training plan for his disciple, Tang San.
"Yu Xiaogang!"
Suddenly, a deep voice came from the front.
Yu Xiaogang instinctively looked toward the sound.
Standing in the doorway was the middle-aged man, wearing ragged clothes and messy hair, looking strangely familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time.
"Who are you?"
Seeing the middle-aged man, Yu Xiaogang was stunned.
"It's been a long time. I am Tang Hao. I'm here to take you with me. Have you packed your things? If so, let's go. It would be troublesome if the Spirit Hall's branch sends someone to watch you."
Tang Hao casually walked toward Yu Xiaogang, saying this indifferently.
"You are Haotian Douluo?! How… how did you arrive so quickly? I've packed everything, I can go with you right now. But where is Tang San?"
Upon hearing that the person in front of him was indeed Tang Hao, Yu Xiaogang's face changed, and he immediately stood up, looking around, as if searching for Tang San behind him.
"Tang San... I did bring him with me, and I was planning to let you meet him. Afterward, we'll take you to a safe place where you can teach him."
"But this is the academy, and there are too many eyes here. I'll take you there after we leave. You'll meet him soon."
Tang Hao fell silent for a moment before speaking indifferently.
"In that case, Haotian Douluo, please take me there now!"
Hearing that he would soon meet his long-awaited disciple, Yu Xiaogang spoke eagerly.
Seeing Yu Xiaogang's impatience,
Tang Hao directly grabbed him and, in a swift motion, took him out of the room. They jumped a few times before landing outside the dormitory and quickly headed toward the back mountain.
Meanwhile, when Lin Yu saw that Tang Hao had taken Yu Xiaogang,
he immediately ordered Ta Qing to follow quickly, using the Speed Water Flow technique.
