Douluo Continent: Disciple Tang San, righteous yet evil

Chapter 169 Yu Xiaogang Wants to Recognize a Master and Extract the Origin of the Holy Dragon of Light
Upon hearing Lin Mu's request, Bibi Dong's face darkened.

Having just presented three ten-thousand-year-old soul bones as a champion's reward, where would she find any soul bones older than thirty thousand years?

Moreover, as the leader of the Spirit Hall team, Yu Xiaogang's loss of three ten-thousand-year-old spirit bones has already displeased the Spirit Hall's higher-ups.

If another soul bone over 30,000 years old were to be used to pay off Yu Xiaogang's debt, the elders and retainers would probably want to grind him to dust.

After a moment of silence, Bibi Dong looked up at Lin Mu, her red lips parted slightly, and suggested, "I can compensate you for the soul bone that Yu Xiaogang owes you in other ways, such as with gold soul coins."

Upon hearing this, all the Soul Masters present were taken aback.

What a joke!
The value of a ten-thousand-year-old soul bone to a soul master cannot be measured by gold soul coins.

Even an ordinary thousand-year-old soul bone will cause a group of soul masters to fight over it at an auction. Ten-thousand-year soul bones are even more rare and hard to come by, and any one of them will fetch an astronomical price at auction.

Moreover, soul bones can be passed down from generation to generation. A soul bone that is over 30,000 years old can be the foundation of a sect.

"Bibi Dong, do you think I look like someone who's short of money?"

Lin Mu sneered, his eyes fixed on Bibi Dong on the high platform, his gaze sharp and unwavering. This woman actually wanted to fool him with gold soul coins.

As a Soul Master, how could Bibi Dong not know the value of Soul Bones? Either she was pretending not to know, or she had been in a high position for a long time and believed that everyone had to obey her will.

Seeing Lin Mu's ungrateful attitude, Bibi Dong's face instantly turned ashen, and she coldly said, "Your Royal Fighting Team has already obtained three ten-thousand-year soul bones, are you still not satisfied?"

“One thing at a time, those three soul bones are the champion’s reward, and we deserve them.”

After a pause, Lin Mu suddenly changed the subject, saying with a hint of sarcasm, "As for the soul bone that Yu Xiaogang owes me, I didn't force you to give it to him, unless there's some unspeakable secret between you two."

Upon hearing this, both those in the know and those unaware of the matter were stunned.

In an instant, all eyes turned to Yu Xiaogang, who looked at the disheveled good-for-nothing and were filled with doubt.

Is Bibi Dong out of her mind to actually fall for this kind of person?

Lin Mu's revelation not only shocked the public, but also changed the views of some Spirit Hall Soul Masters towards Bibi Dong, making her no longer seem as sacred and inviolable as before.

After all, they considered themselves no less capable than Yu Xiaogang, and perhaps His Holiness the Pope preferred this type.

"Bibi Dong, you have terrible taste."

Qian Renxue's beautiful eyes were full of disdain. She never expected that Bibi Dong would like a good-for-nothing.

Although Lin Mu's actions affected the reputation of the Spirit Hall, she was happy as long as she could see Bibi Dong suffer a setback.

On the high platform, Bibi Dong had already realized that the situation was developing in the worst possible direction.

If things continue like this, I'm afraid her position as pope will be in jeopardy.

After a while, she forced herself to calm her emotions and slowly said, "I have no connection with him. Do whatever you want with him."

Although the Spirit Hall has a strong foundation, it is not a place where she can dictate everything.

Even if she were willing to offer her soul bone to help Yu Xiaogang, Qian Daoliu and the others would never agree. Furthermore, given Lin Mu's exposure, if she were to lend a hand, rumors would inevitably spread in a few days.

Seeing that Bibi Dong wanted to distance herself from the situation, Yu Xiaogang became furious and shouted angrily:
"Bibi Dong, have you forgotten our past friendship? You can't even bear to part with a single soul bone. My decision to leave the Spirit Hall back then was indeed the right one!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

With Yu Xiaogang's assistance, the relationship between him and Bibi Dong has been basically confirmed, breaking the hearts of countless Spirit Hall Soul Masters.

At this moment, Bibi Dong was filled with mixed feelings. If Yu Xiaogang were the same as before, she would definitely help him at all costs, but he had become like this, and he was not worth her going to great lengths for.

However, she was speechless with grievances, just as she had been betrayed by Yu Xiaogang twenty years ago.

On the viewing side, Lin Mu watched this good show and couldn't help but smile. It has to be Gangzi. He can sever ties when he doesn't need someone, but when he needs someone, he's willing to drag the other person down with him.

“Gangzi, since no one is willing to help you, I have no choice but to take something of equal value from you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Mu vanished from his spot. Before anyone could react, he had already brought Tang San back to the viewing area.

"Master, why did you bring me here?"

“Although this guy is a piece of trash, his martial soul contains the essence of the Holy Dragon of Light. Use the Eight Spider Lances to extract it.”

"Holy Dragon of Light?"

Not only was Tang San stunned, but everyone present was also dumbfounded. This good-for-nothing with no cultivation actually possessed such an opportunity?

Upon hearing the words "Holy Dragon of Light," Yu Xiaogang, who had been slumped on the ground, instantly perked up, but quickly lost his composure again.

Putting aside the fact that his cultivation has been destroyed, even if his cultivation hadn't been destroyed, he still wouldn't be able to evolve Luo Sanpao. Even with the help of the Martial Soul Fusion Technique, all he could do was fart.

A moment later, Yu Xiaogang suddenly remembered something, hurriedly looked up at Lin Mu, and pleaded:

"Lin Mu, as long as you are willing to help me restore my cultivation, I can acknowledge you as my master."

"Gangzi, someone like you is better off being a good-for-nothing for life."

Lin Mu was not moved in the slightest by Yu Xiaogang's request.

Although doing so might annoy Bibi Dong, it would be pointless in trying to subdue Yu Xiaogang, and might even only cause more trouble.

Seeing Tang San approaching step by step, Yu Xiaogang's eyes were filled with fear, and he pleaded again, "Wait a minute, I can still ask my father for help. He will definitely be willing to help me pay the compensation."

"too late!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang San used the Blue Silver Emperor to lift Yu Xiaogang up from the ground. Then, the Eight Spider Soul Bones emerged from behind and pierced into his body at an extremely fast speed.

On the high platform, Bibi Dong made no attempt to stop him. In any case, Yu Xiaogang had already lost his cultivation, so even if his martial soul essence was removed, it wouldn't have much of an impact.

As time passed, Yu Xiaogang's aura grew weaker and weaker, his last bit of masculinity completely disappeared, and his appearance became increasingly ugly.

Many people realized what had happened when they saw the changes in Yu Xiaogang's appearance.

This guy is actually a eunuch!
"Xiao Gang, you brought this all on yourself, don't blame me."

A complex look flashed in Bibi Dong's eyes. Besides feeling sorry for him, there was also some disgust and rejection, and even more resentment towards Lin Mu.

Previously, Yu Xiaogang could only be described as ugly; now he is simply repulsive.

"teacher"

On the field, Ma Hongjun, who had just regained consciousness, saw this scene and his eyes were filled with sympathy and helplessness.

It's because Yu Xiaogang likes gambling.

Seeing his teacher's tragic end, a strange sense of superiority welled up inside him; at least he could still pretend to be a normal person.
