Douluo: Wuhun Eats Iron Beast, Never Become a Slave

Chapter 130 A misunderstanding arises, leading to a major rift.

"Dad, how can I awaken my Blue Silver Grass martial soul into the Blue Silver Emperor?" With high hopes for the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul, Tang San was naturally eager to know the method of awakening it.

Tang Hao said, "Besides telling you about Zhao Mu, I came here this time to guide you in the cultivation of the Clear Sky Hammer and the awakening of the Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul."

Upon hearing this, Tang San's face lit up with joy, not because his strength would improve rapidly with Tang Hao's guidance, but because this would allow him to stay with his father.

"By the way, Dad, how did you lose to Zhao Mu? And what were Mom's belongings that were taken from her?" Tang San then asked.

"Based solely on strength, even though I've been neglecting my skills for over a decade and my techniques are slightly rusty, dealing with Zhao Mu would still be no problem. It's just that that kid somehow got hold of a head, and that head was tainted with a powerful curse. I only glanced at it, and my entire body began to petrify under the erosion of that curse. This petrification process couldn't be stopped even with soul power. If it weren't for the ninth soul ring that your mother sacrificed for me, I'd probably have turned into a stone by now."

"In order to completely remove the curse power from my body, the aura left by your mother in the spirit ring exhausted the power of the entire spirit ring, which completely cleared the curse power. As a result, I completely lost the ninth spirit ring left to me by your mother, and stopped at the level of Soul Douluo."

"As for the relics left by your mother, they are her 100,000-year soul bone, the right leg bone of the Blue Silver Emperor! A 100,000-year soul beast sacrifice not only adds a 100,000-year soul ring to the soul master, but also creates a 100,000-year soul bone. I absorbed your mother's soul ring, and that 100,000-year soul bone was left to you by your mother and me, but now it has been taken away by Zhao Mu."

"Zhao Mu!" Tang San roared in a low voice. If it were just the Heaven Dou Royal Academy being humiliated, Tang San wouldn't be so angry as to fight Zhao Mu to the death. But his father's ninth spirit ring was cut off and his mother's belongings were taken away. These kinds of hatreds were absolutely unforgivable for Tang San.

"Xiao San, with your current strength, you are no match for Zhao Mu. What you need to do is accumulate strength and look for opportunities!" Tang Hao earnestly reminded him.

Tang San nodded: "I know, Dad. Don't worry, until I have enough strength, I will suppress this hatred in my heart and will not actively seek trouble with him!"

Seeing that Tang San was not blinded by hatred, Tang Hao nodded with relief and satisfaction. Tang San's composure in the face of adversity was what Tang Hao admired most, and it was the only quality that was no less than Zhao Mu's.

The information given to Tang San today was already quite extensive and explosive. If it were an ordinary person, they would probably find it hard to accept. Putting aside everything else, just the statement "your mother is not human" would be hard for anyone to accept. Yet Tang San was able to remain calm, which is quite remarkable.

Seeing this, Tang Hao even planned to tell Tang San another secret, because his early appearance meant that secret could not be kept from Tang San either.

So Tang Hao said, "Little San, there's something you might want to know beforehand."

"What is it, Dad?"

"Mistress, do you really love that girl in the pink dress you're with?"

"Huh? Dad, are you talking about Xiao Wu? I've always thought of Xiao Wu as my little sister," Tang San said, his voice growing softer and softer.

"Just a younger sister? You really don't like her at all? Little San, I've been there, and I can see that you really like that girl, and she seems to have feelings for you too. But there's something I need to tell you: she, like your mother, is not human, but a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form!" Tang Hao said.

Upon hearing this, Tang San was jolted, and his whole body trembled slightly.

"Dad, what did you say? You said Xiao Wu isn't human? She's also a 100,000-year-old soul beast?"

Tang Hao affirmed, "That's right, that girl is indeed not human. Ordinary people can't tell, but the aura of a soul beast can't escape the eyes of a titled Douluo. However, I won't object to you two being together, but you'll inevitably go through a lot together."

"Of course, once a 100,000-year-old soul beast transforms into human form and reaches maturity, it is no different from a normal human. I am not an unenlightened person. As long as you truly love each other, I will not stop you from being together. After all, your mother is a 100,000-year-old soul beast."

"Dad. It's me."

On the way back, Tang San seemed completely absent-minded.

It seems that learning that Xiao Wu is a 100,000-year-old soul beast is more shocking than learning that his own mother is a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

This is not surprising, after all, Tang San has never met his mother; she is a fictional being.

However, Xiao Wu was a girl who had spent seven years with him day and night. When she learned that the other party was not human, but a 100,000-year-old soul beast, she was naturally very shocked.

He was constantly thinking about how to get along with Xiao Wu. Even with his strong heart, Tang San was still somewhat affected.

However, one thing remains unchanged: he will not give up on Xiao Wu.

When Tang San arrived at his residence in a grand and imposing manner, he found that Xiao Wu was already waiting for him in his room.

"Xiao Wu." When Tang San returned, Xiao Wu naturally looked at him in response to his voice.

For a moment, their eyes met, but they quickly looked away, as if both were trying to avoid each other.

Some things seem to have changed.

"Young lady, is your father the famous Haotian Douluo? A titled Douluo powerhouse?"

After a brief standoff, Xiao Wu was the first to speak.

Tang San, unaware of anything amiss, replied, "Yes, Tang Hao is my father, whose title is Haotian."

However, just as Tang San finished speaking, he noticed that Xiao Wu's expression was a little off.

"But you told me back then that your father was just an ordinary blacksmith!" Xiao Wu's tone was a bit loud. If she had known that Tang San's father was a Title Douluo, she would have definitely stayed away from Tang San and kept her distance for her own safety. After all, rabbits are the best at hiding.

"Xiao Wu, listen to me, my father really was a blacksmith back then."

Xiao Wu suddenly interrupted, even chuckling, "Title Douluo have dignity; how could they possibly become a lowly blacksmith!"

"Xiao Wu, my father really is a blacksmith!"

"Even if he's a blacksmith, is that what you call ordinary? Since when can a titled Douluo be associated with the word 'ordinary'?" Xiao Wu was clearly getting more and more agitated as she spoke.

To appease Xiao Wu, Tang San finally spoke softly and gently, "Xiao Wu, I didn't mean to lie to you; there's been a misunderstanding."

"Tang San, a lie is a lie! Lies either happen zero times or countless times! If you lie to me once, you'll lie a second time, a third time, and countless times!"

When Tang San heard Xiao Wu address him as "Tang San" instead of "Xiao San," his heart clenched. It was a simple title, but it contained a lot of meaning.

"Alright, Xiao Wu, I'll pretend I didn't tell you that my father is a Title Douluo, but did you ever tell me that you are a 100,000-year-old soul beast?"

When the two argued, they immediately gave up and started acting recklessly.

"Why tell you the identity of a 100,000-year-old soul beast? Are you waiting to be hunted? Or to be kept as a pet?"

Tang San then explained, "Xiao Wu, you know I wouldn't do that!"

"Why not? Tang San, you're just like everyone else. Which of your spirit rings wasn't obtained by hunting spirit beasts?" Xiao Wu retorted.

Tang San said, "Xiao Wu, hunting spirit beasts to obtain spirit rings is something every spirit master must go through to improve their strength, and there's nothing I can do about it!"

Xiao Wu's expression remained grim as she coldly retorted, "Who said you can only obtain a spirit ring by hunting spirit beasts? Zhao Mu of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy didn't obtain his spirit ring by hunting spirit beasts!"

Upon hearing Xiao Wu mention Zhao Mu, especially recalling Zhao Mu's actions of harming his father Tang Hao and stealing his mother's belongings, Tang San couldn't control his anger and blurted out:
"enough!"

Tang San's shout startled Xiao Wu quite a bit. This was the first time Xiao Wu had seen Tang San get angry, especially at her. Sure enough, people can change.

Xiao Wu didn't say anything after that, but simply turned and left.

With Xiao Wu's departure, the Sanwu group seemed to have broken up.

That's how relationships are; a small misunderstanding can escalate into a huge uproar, and deception is already a serious problem.

Even after the Soul Master Competition ended, Xiao Wu was still apprehensive about her parents' identities being exposed. It wasn't until she saw the Shrek Academy members protecting her that she truly came to understand and accept them. Therefore, Xiao Wu is not yet completely at ease trusting others.
