Douluo: The Peerless Tang Sect - The Ordinary Life of a Supporting Character

Chapter 73 Calm and Tranquil

Duke Baihu's reputation was even more renowned than Wang Nan had anticipated. Within the Star Luo Empire, Wang Nan and Gongyang Mo followed the team arranged by Dai Hao back to Star Luo City, encountering not a single fool along the way.

However, when they passed through some sparsely populated areas, a few hungry wild animals attacked the group, but in the end, they were only given an extra meal.

Standing outside Xingluo City, Wang Nan watched as the group with several children entered the city.

"I remember you said your home is in Xingluo City, right? We're almost home, aren't you going in?"

After hearing Gongyang Mo's words, Wang Nan came to his senses and looked into Xingluo City through the city gate.

"Okay, then come to my house for a visit."

In his previous life, Wang Nan was all alone. It wasn't until he was reborn that he had parents to accompany him as he grew up. Therefore, he always missed his parents. When he heard Gongyang Mo mention them, he also had a desire to go home and take a look.

After passing through the hundred-meter-thick city wall of Xingluo City, Wang Nan led Gongyang Mo back home.

Only Wang Nan's mother was at home, and her eyes were filled with surprise when she saw Wang Nan.

"Nan'er, why are you back? And who is this...?"

"He's the Gongyang Mo I told you about. We were roommates back in the Foreign Languages ​​Department."

Wang Nan's mother suddenly realized, "Oh, quick, quick, bring your classmates inside. I'll get you some food. How many days are you planning to stay this time?"

Wang Nan went inside and sat down, then pulled his mother back, saying, "Mom, no need to trouble yourself. We're just here to take care of some things for the college. We'll be leaving after a short while."

"Is that so?" Upon hearing this, Wang Nan's mother stopped insisting and sat down next to Wang Nan, placing her hands on her lap, but her gaze never left him.

"By the way, where's my dad? Did he go out again?"

"Yes," Wang Nan's mother said casually, "someone suddenly came looking for him yesterday, and he went out with them again."

"I'll tell my dad to take on fewer dangerous jobs in the future."

While Wang Nan was chatting with his mother, Gongyang Mo looked around Wang Nan's living room and soon spotted a wooden carving on the table next to him. The workmanship didn't seem to be of high quality, but he didn't know why it was placed there.

"Did you make this?" Gongyang Mo nudged Wang Nan.

Wang Nan turned around, but realized he didn't recognize the small ornament either. So he shook his head, picked it up, and waved it at his mother. "Mom, where did this come from?"

"You mean this?" Wang Nan's mother said with a smile. "I just bought it recently. A while ago, a kid came to Xingluo City to sell some trinkets. I heard that he made them all by hand. When I passed by, I saw that the kid was quite talented and his workmanship was meticulous, so I bought one and brought it home. I just left it here."

Wang Nan glanced down at the wood carving in his hand. Although the carving technique was not superb, it was clear that the person who made the ornament was very meticulous and did a great job in the details.

In the Douluo Continent, many people possess unique advantages in certain aspects due to their Martial Souls. Perhaps the child who created this ornament will also have the opportunity to become an excellent Soul Master, just like the boss Wang Nan met in Lingdou City.

……

It was already late when Wang Nan and Gongyang Mo left Xingluo City. The two carried their flying soul tools and flew at full speed to Shrek City, finally returning to Seagod Island before dark.

Although it was nearing night, Cai Meier was still in her office. For a Soul Master like her, sleep and rest were no longer a necessity.

"You two are back so early?"

When Cai Meier saw Wang Nan and Gongyang Mo appear, she was also surprised by their speed. In her mind, it was possible that they wouldn't return for a month.

"Dean Cai," Wang Nan greeted her, and then recounted his experiences along the way to Cai Meier in detail.

At first, Cai Meier was only surprised by the soul-guided detector that Wang Nan mentioned, but after the news from the Holy Spirit Cult came out, Cai Meier also became a little restless.

"Is what you're saying true?" In fact, Cai Meier knew in her heart that Wang Nan and the other person would definitely not lie about this kind of thing, but the news that a sect composed entirely of evil soul masters was still too shocking for her, so she had to confirm it again.

"Absolutely true. Duke White Tiger will also submit a letter to the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire regarding matters related to the Holy Spirit Cult, and his letter should arrive even before ours."

Cai Meier stood up, preparing to go to the Sea God Pavilion that night. After reaching the office door, she turned back and instructed, "You should go back and rest first. Don't spread this matter. I will report the Holy Spirit Sect and Ji Tongxuan's matter to the Sea God Pavilion first. The Sea God Pavilion will notify you when it has a result."

"Also, from what you just said, defeating Ji Tongxuan must have been quite an achievement. If you feel unwell, remember to see Elder Zhuang so you don't suffer any hidden injuries."

"Yes, Dean Cai."

After leaving the faculty office area on Poseidon Island, Wang Nan parted ways with Gongyang Mo. However, he didn't go straight back to his dormitory, but instead went to the dormitory area for the Soul Guidance Department and knocked on a metal door.

Wang Nan waited for a moment, and seeing no response from inside, he prepared to leave.

However, just as he turned around, he heard a metallic sound behind him, and Ye Xiaosheng came out from inside.

"You're back so soon?" Ye Xiaosheng didn't wait for Wang Nan's answer and hurriedly led him into the dormitory. "You didn't encounter any danger, did you?"

"Thank goodness for your soul detector, otherwise I might still be wandering around outside like a headless fly."

As a disciple of the Soul Guidance Department, Ye Xiaosheng's room had many more things than Wang Nan's, with various materials and blueprints for making Soul Guidance Devices scattered everywhere.

Ye Xiaosheng pulled out a folding chair and placed it in front of Wang Nan.

"Great job! I only mentioned it briefly and you've already made it." Wang Nan looked at the familiar-looking chair in front of him and exclaimed in admiration.

"It's just a simple piece of furniture, not some kind of soul tool. Don't underestimate the disciples of our Soul Tool Department." Ye Xiaosheng said as he sat down, placing the half-finished soul tool shell aside.

It seems he was busy with this when he didn't open the door immediately.

"Alright, tell me, do you have any new ideas to share this time?"

Wang Nan occasionally has some ideas about soul tools, and he will discuss the feasibility with Ye Xiaosheng. When Ye Xiaosheng creates a new soul tool, he will immediately approach Wang Nan to help test its power in the hands of a soul master.

This wasn't the first time the two had talked together like this.
