Chapter 37 Let's Take Some Gifts Home

"Grandpa! Is this Holy Soul Village?"

"Hmm, you young man, you don't look too strong, but pulling you up is really going to kill this old man."

The old man walked beside the ox, touched the panting ox, and said with some surprise.

Xia Yu chuckled, and seeing the small village ahead, he tossed the sleeping Jian Yu Ying off the cart and took out a few silver soul coins, handing them to the old man driving the oxcart as payment.

"You gave too much!"

When the old man saw Xia Yu put the coins down and was about to leave, he quickly grabbed Xia Yu's sleeve, wanting to return the extra coins to him.

"Hey, sir, I didn't give you enough."

Xia Yu grinned and tried to push the old man's hand away and run away.

Upon hearing this, the old man glared and said, "Don't treat me like a fool. I can still move. I don't need your help, young man. Just take care of yourself."

As he spoke, he stuffed the silver soul coins into Xia Yu's hand, kept one for himself, and even tried to take out copper soul coins from his pocket to give Xia Yu change.

Xia Yu smiled before asking, "How about you consider this silver soul coin a tip?"

"That won't do. No one's money comes out of thin air. No matter how much or how little money you have, you'll always have a chance to use it."

"Sir, you don't know this, but in some big cities, you have to tip when you eat out."

Xia Yu wanted to argue, but then he saw the old man counting the somewhat dirty copper soul coins one by one.

Which major city?

"It's that city of Soto, which isn't that far away."

"Then where are we now?"

"Holy Soul Village."

The old man rolled his eyes at Xia Yu after receiving his answer, then shoved the copper soul coins he could barely hold into Xia Yu's hand, saying, "Big cities have their own way of doing things. In our small town, you should follow our local rules."

"Hurry up and pay, or if the amount is too small, I won't give you any more money!"

Xia Yu looked at the stubborn old man, didn't even point, and put all of them into his pocket.

"I trust you completely, there's no need to count them."

"You kid."

The old man smiled, watched Xia Yu walk with the copper soul coins jingling in his pocket, waved his hand, and drove back.

Xia Yu glanced at Holy Soul Village, which looked no different from any other small village, shook his head, turned his back, and walked into the nearby forest.

"Since we're here, we should bring some gifts home, right?"

Tang San and Tang Hao, far away in Tiandou City, sneezed at the same time, a bad premonition inexplicably creeping into their hearts.

……

At twenty-two, after thorough preparation, you began your final battle alongside Tang Yin, who had already secured ninety-nine victories.

The King of Slaughter has opened the Hell Road trial for you.

Amidst the jubilant cheers of the onlookers, you walk behind Tang Yin, officially beginning the final test to enter the City of Slaughter.

Even though you don't trust each other, you've practiced your teamwork many times before, and you've managed to overcome each crisis successfully. At the final moment, you both endure the surge of killing intent. Just as you reach the exit, you see Tang Yin throw a beautiful flower into the river of blood.

[You were just curious, but ultimately you were happy because you successfully traversed the Hell Road and obtained the God of Slaughter Domain.]

Although you and Tang Yin distrusted each other, you acknowledged each other's abilities at this moment, exchanged contact information, and then parted ways.

"What did you throw away?"

Bibi Dong noticed this and was a little confused. She kept seeing some strange flowers and plants in Tang San's hands, which piqued her interest.

"Does it have some special effect?"

She speculated, but Hu Liena didn't see any changes, and Bibi Dong had no way of knowing what Tang San's actions were for.

Just as you were waiting for your teacher, you saw the Ghost Douluo, Ghost Phantom, with a joyful expression.

He circled you a few times, marveling at how much you had changed, and then took you back to Martial Soul City.

Along the way, you listen to the ghost recount what happened during your absence, and you suddenly realize that you've been gone for more than two years.

First, the Spirit Hall became the Spirit Empire, and then came the Heaven Dou Empire, which surrendered immediately after the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan were destroyed.

[You feel like you've just had a dream. In just two years, your Spirit Hall has become a massive force occupying half of the Douluo Continent.]

[Once you fully return to Wuhun City, the enormous changes will leave you utterly astonished.]

[The Spirit City has been expanded to twice its original size; you've never seen such a magnificent city before.]

"So fast? They've taken half of it in just two years?"

Bibi Dong was also somewhat surprised by this speed. In just two years, she had enough time to eliminate a series of hidden dangers and bring the entire Heaven Dou Empire under the control of the Spirit Hall.

"It seems that Xiaoxue also put in a lot of effort."

Bibi Dong doesn't have many titled Douluo under her command, and the combat power required to complete everything so quickly is quite large. The only thing she can think of is that Qian Renxue persuaded that old geezer Qian Daoliu to take action with the elders of the Offering Hall.

Upon arriving at the Papal Palace, you finally saw your teacher, whom you hadn't seen for two years, and tears welled up in your eyes.

You nestled in her surging embrace, not recounting your experiences in the killing city; after all, it felt like a bloody nightmare.

But your teacher started talking about her own experiences.

Before you entered the City of Slaughter, she sent people to Heaven Dou City to help your half-sister, Qian Renxue, whom you had never met, to wipe out Xue Ye, Xue Xing, Xue Beng, and others within a year and seize the throne of the Heaven Dou Empire.

[Then they began searching for the four single-attribute sects that had once been affiliated with the Clear Sky Sect, using force to subdue them and bring them all under their control, using them as cannon fodder for the Spirit Hall.]

After escorting you into the City of Slaughter, she hurriedly surrounded and killed Tang Hao, whom she had encountered on the way.

[After two full years of preparation, including provisions, troops, plans, and a whole host of other matters, the Martial Soul Empire was officially established.]

"Wow, it really went that smoothly!"

Bibi Dong felt that this was the only plan she had, and she could use it right now. Moreover, according to her simulated self, this newly established Martial Soul Empire was almost at its peak, ready to launch a war at any time, take over the Star Luo Empire, and become the sole ruler of this continent.

When you ask your teacher what to do next, you receive an unexpected answer.

She said she was going to the Star Dou Great Forest to capture a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form as a congratulatory gift for you becoming the Holy Maiden of the Martial Soul Empire.
