Douluo V: Daily Intelligence - I Want All of Tang San's Opportunities

Tang Hao was silent for a moment, then suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Tang San, his tone calm but extremely serious:

"This can't go on forever. If we keep staying together, we'll attract too much attention and be easily recognized. Besides, your studies can't be neglected."

Tang San suddenly looked up: "Father?"

Tang Hao ignored him and continued:

"I plan to entrust you to a friend of mine, whom we all call Master. He has profound knowledge in martial spirit research. Only by his side can you learn the most complete knowledge about martial spirits."

"I'm not going! I want to go with Dad!"

Tang San's voice became urgent, revealing a rare hint of the emotions a six-year-old child should have.

Tang Hao looked at him, a fleeting hint of reluctance in his eyes:

"Do you really want to spend the rest of your life being hunted down like this?"

Tang San opened his mouth, but the word "want" stuck in his throat and he couldn't say it.

He was not afraid of hardship or even danger, but he did not want to be a burden forever.

He bit his lower lip, remained silent for a long time, and finally nodded slowly.

"Okay, I'm leaving!"

He looked up, the panic of a six-year-old child had largely faded from his eyes, replaced by a composure far beyond his years.

"But I will remember the grudge of being hunted down by the Spirit Hall today, and I will avenge it in the future."

Tang Hao glanced at him, said nothing, and simply patted the back of his head. The two figures, one tall and one short, gradually disappeared along the official road.

Meanwhile, in the Baron's territory of Nottingham, hundreds of miles away, Su Yuntao had already returned home.

He entered the courtyard and briefly told Liu Shi and Su Yunfeng about Ju Douluo's visit.

"We can no longer sell the hidden blades to outsiders. Our Baron's Mansion will only produce enough for our own territory's guard. Since the Spirit Hall wants the formula and process, we'll give them to them. The Spirit Hall won't let us suffer any losses in terms of compensation. The key is that with this relationship, our Baron's Mansion will only be more secure in Notting City in the future."

After listening, Su Yunfeng remained silent for a moment, then slowly nodded:

"Okay, whatever you say."

Lady Liu hesitated for a moment:

"What about Uncle Liu the blacksmith and the others? We recruited quite a few people this time."

"After the territory guard is expanded, the need for hidden blades will be no less. Uncle Liu and the others can continue to make hidden blades in the territory. Their wages will continue to be paid. They just need to do their work and don't need to worry about anything else."

After everything was arranged, Su Yuntao stood up and said casually:

"Also, I plan to take some people to the Soul Hunter Forest tomorrow."

Su Yunfeng's heart skipped a beat; he immediately guessed what his younger brother was going to do.

Su Yuntao had told him before that he had discovered there were spiritual herbs in the Soul Hunter Forest that could heal his injuries.

Although he didn't say much, he kept it in his heart.

But when he heard that Su Yuntao was really going to leave, his first reaction was not to be moved, but to be anxious.

"No way." Su Yunfeng sat up straight, propping himself up on the edge of the bed. His tone was more urgent than before. "The Soul Hunting Forest is no joke. It's too dangerous for a level 26 Great Soul Master like you to go in alone. The outer area is fine, but wherever spiritual herbs grow, there are high-level soul beasts guarding it. You're not going to gather herbs, you're going to your death."

Su Yuntao couldn't help but laugh when he saw his brother looking so anxious he almost jumped out of bed.

"Bro, who said I'm still a level 26 student?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his soul power was released without reservation.

A surge of soul power, far more powerful than before, emanated from Su Yuntao.

Liu stood to the side. Although she was not a Soul Master, she could still feel the oppressive aura coming from all directions.

Su Yunfeng was completely stunned. As a level 29 Great Soul Master, he was extremely sensitive to changes in soul power level. At this moment, he could clearly sense that Su Yuntao's soul power had actually surpassed his.

Su Yunfeng opened his mouth, his face full of disbelief: "When did you break through?"

Su Yuntao withdrew his soul power and said casually:

"It was today that Lord Chrysanthemum Douluo helped me out, directly allowing my soul power to break through to level 30."

Su Yunfeng remained silent for a long while, trying to process the information.

But when he came to his senses, he couldn't help but frown and say:

"Although level 30 is the limit of a Great Soul Master and only a step away from Soul Venerable, there are still many Soul Beasts that have lived for thousands of years in the depths of the Soul Hunting Forest. Even if you want to go, you should plan carefully. I suggest you hire a few high-level Soul Masters to accompany you first, so that we can rest assured."

Su Yuntao knew, of course, that his elder brother was right.

However, hiring one or two Soul Masters as bodyguards is of limited significance to him. If he were to encounter a Soul Beast that is over a thousand years old, even a Soul Master might not be able to withstand it.

As for higher-level Soul Masters, they are not easy to invite. Even if you do invite one, why do you think they would risk their lives for a few gold soul coins?

But he had already prepared his explanation.

"Brother, don't worry, I don't plan to go alone," Su Yuntao said with a smile as he walked to the window and gestured towards the courtyard. "I plan to bring half of the territory's guards with me this time, dozens of people in total. Even if we encounter any accidents, it's still better than going alone. Besides, I'm not just going to gather herbs. I'm already level 30, and it's time for me to absorb my next soul ring."

Upon hearing the words "absorb a soul ring," Su Yunfeng opened his mouth, but ultimately did not try to persuade him further.

He sighed, leaned back against the headboard, his tone tinged with helplessness but he no longer insisted:

"Then be careful. Once you enter the Soul Hunter Forest, be extremely cautious. If you encounter a danger you can't handle, remember to retreat immediately. Whether it's medicinal herbs or soul rings, you can always find more. But if you're gone, you've lost everything."

Su Yuntao grinned:

"Don't worry, I value my life much more than you do. I wouldn't risk my life to protect someone else."

That very night, Su Yuntao began preparing for his entry into the Soul Hunter Forest.

The next morning, nearly a hundred people gathered in the baron's courtyard.

These people were all dressed in short, gray-blue outfits, with knives at their waists, bows and arrows on their backs, and two brand-new sleeve darts strapped to their arms.

Although most of them were ordinary martial artists, after these days of training, and with the hidden arrows in place, the whole team looked somewhat like an elite force.

Su Yuntao, dressed in a neat set of soft armor, stood at the front of the group. His gaze swept over each person, and without any lengthy explanation, he simply said:

"Set off!"
