Chapter 42 I'll join the Spirit Hall with my tonic, and put a knife to the noble lord's head.
"Dad, why is your flag emitting black smoke?"
After Bai Tianming's martial soul was repaired
Bai Ran discovered that his father's so-called military flag was also emanating a strange black aura.
"Hmm~, Ranran, you're mistaken. That's just the aura emanating from Dad's ten-thousand-year-old soul ring."
Bai Tianming declared: "This isn't the Emperor's Banner, it's more like the King's Banner. If that doesn't work, you can call it the Plain Yellow Banner. (Wait, why is there a braid growing from the back of my head? And when I encounter foreigners, my knees actually feel weak and I want to kneel down.)"
"Old Deng, this isn't funny at all."
Bai Ran: With this lineage of martial spirit and these facial features that are six or seven parts similar, you think I was picked up by someone? Next time you make up a story like this, you better not hold back your laughter.
Although he had regained his strength, Bai Tianming still refused to return to the empire's military system and take command of the Southern Legion again.
After all, Bai Tianming, the commoner soul master who harbored no affection for the ruling empire's nobles, was long dead. (You chose him, esteemed nobles.)
The one who is alive now is just an old father named Bai Liang, an ordinary level 89 Soul Douluo.
Feng Tianyu didn't try to persuade him any further, because he also realized that it wasn't a good idea for Brother Bai to return to the public eye now.
After all, the situation is different now than it was ten years ago. With the appointment of the new Pope Bibi Dong, the Spirit Hall has gradually revealed its ambitions.
The relationship between the Heavenly Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire is no longer so tense.
Many units in the Southern Legion were disbanded. Feng Tianyu left the Southern Legion during that disbandment seven years ago and became a teacher at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.
Furthermore, in the eyes of the imperial high command, Bai Ran, whose father was a "martyr," possessed such extraordinary talent that he would become a pillar of the empire in the future.
But what if Bai Tianming were still alive, and about to break through to the Title Douluo realm?
Then, in the eyes of the imperial high command (Prince Xuexing), Bai Ran would quickly become a thorn in their side.
Prince Xuexing: Your father, who chose to side with the peasants, is still alive? You little brat, I think you've already found your way to death.
Bai Ran, who will be targeted by the Empire, will probably be forced to join the Spirit Hall.
Bai Ran: I'll add the tonic to the Spirit Hall, and then I'll have the old fairy Bibi Dong serve me like a beast of burden.
(Of course, none of this will happen. When Bai Tianming reappears in the public eye, Bai Ran will already have a knife to the heads of the noble lords.)
……
More than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Today is Valentine's Day in Douluo Continent.
Given the "brother-sister" relationship between Tang San and Xiao Wu,
Tang San doesn't need to give Xiao Wu gifts.
But Xiao Wu was not happy.
She said other girls have it, so why doesn't she? You mistress, do you hate Sister Xiaowu?
Seeing Xiao Wu's low spirits, coupled with the irresistible coquettishness of the little girl, he was deeply moved.
On Valentine's Day, Tang San still gave Xiao Wu a gift.
Xiao Wu happily opened the gift box, only to find a silver bracelet inside, handcrafted by Tang San himself.
"Hey mistress, what are you doing? It's not pretty at all."
"Xiao Wu, this is a bracelet I made for you."
Tang San felt a slight bitterness in his throat, which he had painstakingly prepared over most of the day.
As a disciple of the Tang Clan, the hidden weapons he makes, especially the mechanical ones, are all made with extremely exquisite parts.
Therefore, crafting a piece of jewelry was not a difficult task for Tang San.
But Xiao Wu criticized it, saying it wasn't pretty?
Tang San was still somewhat saddened.
"Did you make it yourself?"
Xiao Wu began to examine the bracelet closely.
Seeing Xiao Wu's expression, Tang San assumed that she had realized his good intentions.
Just as Tang San was preparing to accept Xiao Wu's praise.
Xiao Wu said, "It's still so ugly, not nearly as good as the ones my girlfriends bought at the brand store. Third Brother, why don't you go to the brand store and buy me one? I'm afraid my girlfriends will laugh at me if I take this back to the academy."
"Third Brother, I don't want this bracelet. Go to the brand store and buy me the gold rose bracelet instead."
Upon hearing Xiao Wu's words, Tang San seemed to freeze in shock.
After a long silence, he slowly spoke, "Xiao Wu, the items in the brand store are too expensive, almost as much as the soul coins I've earned at the blacksmith's shop these past few months. Why don't you make do with it, Xiao Wu? It's my good intention after all."
"Make do? Why should I make do? Besides, this is a one-sided effort from you. I haven't felt any of that from this bracelet."
"Xiao Wu, if you don't like it, you can keep it as a collectible."
"Collect? All my girlfriends have them. If I don't, they'll laugh at me. No way, you have to buy it for me, mistress."
"Xiao Wu, how about this, we each pay half of the Soul Coins?"
Unlike the original storyline, as a fairy, how could Xiao Wu possibly entrust her soul coins to Tang San for safekeeping?
After all, she is an independent woman and wants to have control over her Soul Coins.
Of course, once the money runs out and they can't become independent, they can only suck Tang San's "blood".
"Ha, you're going to use my Soul Coins to buy me the gift you're going to give me?"
Xiao Wu felt like she had heard a huge joke.
Tang San fell silent.
Although Tang San was deeply attracted to the beautiful girl Xiao Wu at first sight.
But why does he feel like he's swallowed a stinky fly?
However, compared to the other girls in the academy, Xiao Wu seemed even better.
When he first entered the academy, he was ridiculed by other female students as a country bumpkin or a peasant.
Xiao Wu not only didn't mind him, but she was even willing to share a bed with him at night.
Tang San was unaware that Xiao Wu simply found the scent of Blue Silver Grass on him very pleasant.
As for being rustic?
Xiao Wu, a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast who came out of the Star Dou Great Forest and had not yet come into contact with human society, did not know what fashion was at that time.
……
Winter vacation is almost over.
Bai Ran followed Feng Tianyu to Tiandou City to report to the Tiandou Royal Academy.
As for Comrade Bai Liang (pseudonym),
They simply stay comfortably at home.
What are you going out to do?
He has no worries about food or drink at home.
Besides, he didn't want to reveal his identity and cause trouble for the little guy.
As for running around and raising a people's army?
Please, the Mid-Autumn Festival isn't here yet. Even if you're lovesick, this isn't the way to want to die.
Of course, there's no problem visiting an old friend you trusted very much in the past.
While having tea and playing chess with them, I inadvertently revealed a hint of Contra's spirit.
These old friends shared a life-or-death bond with Bai Tianming, and besides, they looked down on the practices of the upper-class nobility.
Bai Tianming was not worried at all that the news of his restored strength would be leaked to the empire's high command by these people.
Besides, in the army, would you dare betray your comrades?
The spittle from each of your other brothers alone could drown you.
