.........
In a dark and gloomy cave, a middle-aged man with a stubble beard looked at the Blue Silver Emperor, which was emitting a faint light and looked somewhat listless, and a trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes.
After an unknown amount of time, Tang Hao murmured, "The All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament is about to begin. It's time to go see Xiao San."
He harbors a deep-seated hatred for the Spirit Hall, and once Tang San's identity is exposed, he will face pursuit and assassination by the Spirit Hall.
Therefore, he could ignore it at other times, but at this special juncture of the Advanced Soul Master Academy across the continent, he had to rush to Tang San's side to prevent any possible accidents.
And most importantly, there was the 100,000-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit that followed Tang San.
Although Tang Hao, due to his own reasons, did not object to Tang San and Xiao Wu getting along, he was even happy to see that ending.
However, if the two have a good relationship, he wouldn't mind taking matters into his own hands and detaining Xiao Wu.
After all, a 100,000-year-old soul beast is of great significance to a soul master. With a 100,000-year-old soul ring and soul bone, Tang San can become stronger, and in the future, he can return to his ancestral home, making the Clear Sky Sect more prosperous and the blood feud of the Spirit Hall possible to be avenged.
Immediately afterwards, Tang Hao left the cave and sped towards Tian Dou City at an extremely fast speed.
Tang Hao's years of hiding and his cultivation as a Title Douluo allowed him to easily evade the Spirit Hall and other parties' eyes and ears, and he arrived in Heaven Dou City in just a few days.
Looking at the main hall of the Spirit Hall in the center of Heaven Dou City, a cold glint flashed in Tang Hao's eyes, but he suppressed it instantly.
At other times, he would have used every means to destroy this magnificent church. In fact, he did destroy many of the Spirit Hall's strongholds in the past year, making the Spirit Hall grit their teeth at him.
But now is not the time. The All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament is a good opportunity for him to see how his son has grown.
After making a few inquiries, Tang Hao found Shrek Academy's new location and entered the academy without anyone knowing.
Looking at Tang San diligently cultivating below, Tang Hao couldn't help but smile.
His aura is almost level 37. As expected of his son, very impressive!
Tang San is only fourteen years old now, and he has already reached the peak of level thirty-six. So breaking through to the Soul Master level before the age of sixteen is just a natural thing, much faster than he originally expected.
This speed is already comparable to his, and this is even with Tang San's spirit still being Blue Silver Grass and not yet evolved.
If we also consider Tang San's twin martial souls, Tang San may even surpass him in the future and become the youngest Title Douluo in history.
"It seems that handing over the mistress to Yu Xiaogang was the right decision."
Tang Hao thought to himself.
However, Tang Hao's smile only lasted for a short while before freezing.
Because after he used his mental energy to probe Shrek Academy, he couldn't sense the slightest trace of the 100,000-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit within the academy.
This is undoubtedly abnormal. No matter how well the aura of a 100,000-year-old soul beast is concealed, it is still extremely sensitive to a Title Douluo.
Logically speaking, even if Xiao Wu left, as long as she still lives here, it's impossible that she wouldn't have left any trace, unless...
She never lived here!
Upon realizing this, Tang Hao panicked. If it was really as he guessed, could it be that someone had beaten him to it?
"No, no, the other party must have gone out. Moreover, as a 100,000-year-old soul beast, that rabbit might have some method of concealing its aura that I don't know about, which is why I couldn't detect it for a moment."
However, this consolation was ultimately just self-deception. As Tang Hao learned more and more about the situation, and when he heard Tang San muttering to himself while holding a comb, "Xiao Wu, where did you go? Why did you suddenly disappear?", Tang Hao's last shred of hope vanished instantly.
Tang Hao's eyes were bloodshot, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked, and he roared furiously inside:
"Who?! Who on earth stole my 100,000-year-old Soft-Boned Rabbit?!"
"Achoo!"
Inside the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, Dugu Bo, who was processing medicinal herbs, suddenly sneezed.
Seeing this, Yang Wudi couldn't help but laugh and said, "Brother Dugu, you're a Title Douluo, yet you still catch a cold?"
Dugu Bo touched his nose, feeling a bit strange. With his title Douluo physique, he shouldn't have these minor illnesses. Could it be a side effect of the toxin?
At this moment, Qing Mu, who was using the Myo-Frog Grass as a furnace to refine pills, suddenly spoke up: "Senior Dugu, I seem to have thought of a way to completely solve the problem of toxins in your body."
"What!?"
Upon hearing Qing Mu's words, Dugu Bo was immediately excited. He knew Qing Mu's personality; she would never speak without absolute certainty.
So Dugu Bo couldn't wait any longer and quickly asked, "Young man Qing, tell me quickly, what plan have you come up with?"
"I've thought of two solutions."
Qing Mu pondered for a moment, then slowly explained, "The first method is to find a place in your body to store the poison; you can think of it as a poison sac!"
The Jade Phosphorous Serpent martial soul originally did not have the defect of poisoning soul masters. The reason why this happened was mainly because the Jade Phosphorous Serpent evolved under Dugu Bo's guidance.
Dugu Bo's evolution caused a change in his soul power as a Soul Master, turning it into a poisonous, alien soul power.
Logically speaking, this should be a good thing, since the martial soul becomes more powerful as a result, and this kind of alien soul power is also stronger than ordinary soul power.
However, although the martial soul has evolved, the soul master's body has not changed. This soul power flows throughout the body for a long time and will continue to erode the soul master's body.
In the end, even Dugu Bo himself, who was resistant to the venom of the Jade Scale Serpent, and his descendants could not withstand the continuous erosion of this poisonous alien soul power, resulting in their bodies collapsing and being poisoned to death by their own martial souls.
The first method proposed by Qingmu was actually the same method used by Tang San in the original novel.
After clearing stubborn toxins from your body, choose a "trash can"—once the toxins start to affect your body, force them into that trash can.
If we compare the body to a house, this is equivalent to cleaning the house every now and then to prevent garbage from piling up throughout the room and to keep the house clean.
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I've also considered your method. I even condensed a poison pill, but it didn't solve my problem."
