Chapter 150: Tang San Confesses—A Reincarnator
Inside the rest room.
Qian Renchuan was still holding Shui Bing'er in a princess carry. With concern all over his face, he asked, "Father, can you heal Shui Bing'er? My healing abilities aren't enough to treat her internal injuries."
While his Blue Silver King and Xuan Tian Skill internal energy could treat the injuries Tang San had caused Shui Bing'er, her slightly displaced internal organs were beyond his current level of healing.
For Qian Xunji, though, it was a trivial matter. The healing abilities of the Six-Winged Angel martial soul couldn't match those of the Blue Silver Emperor or Nine-Heart Begonia, but it was still on par with the elite healers. With his overwhelming power at level 99, healing Shui Bing'er's internal trauma was easy.
After Qian Renchuan's explosive performance today, proving he wasn't just a weak support, Shui Bing'er's little reservations should vanish completely.
Pure love didn't exist—even in a world ruled by romance like this one.
Xiao Wu, for instance—at Notting Academy, she was surrounded by admirers. Xiao Chenyu had better looks and background than Tang San, but she stuck with him precisely because of his innate full soul power and outstanding strength.
Zhu Zhuqing, too, only gradually accepted Dai Mubai as he grew stronger.
Even the strangest case—Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang—only happened because Yu Xiaogang managed to display unparalleled talent and wisdom in her eyes.
"All done. She'll wake up soon."
Qian Xunji withdrew his angelic soul power. Shui Bing'er's complexion was fully restored. Without the soul-power veil on her face, the breathtaking beauty granted by the Ice Phoenix martial soul was revealed for all of Tianshui's five girls to see.
They all considered themselves beauties, but next to Shui Bing'er, they simply weren't in the same league.
Qian Xunji didn't react.
Neither did Qian Renchuan—his Purple Demon Eye had long pierced through her veil.
"Xiao Chuan, take out that external soul bone you just acquired."
Qian Renchuan's soul tool flashed, and in his hand appeared a purplish spinal bone with eight nodules—Tang San's former Eight Spider Lances.
"Absorb it. External soul bones grow with their host's body. The earlier you fuse it, the more it will benefit its development."
Qian Renchuan nodded, sat cross-legged with the spinal bone in hand, and began to absorb it. With his invincible father by his side, he had no fear of being interrupted.
Meanwhile, Shui Bing'er slowly awoke. Her beautiful eyes fluttered open. In the rest area, all eyes were fixed on Qian Renchuan, who was surrounded by a purple glow in deep meditation.
"Sis, you're awake!"
The Tianshui girls gathered around her.
"What happened? Why are Teacher Qian and Qian Renchuan…?"
Shui Bing'er's gaze also fell on Qian Renchuan. That purple light… it wasn't ordinary cultivation.
"Sis, your fiancé is absorbing an external soul bone!"
"Did you know? After you were severely injured by that Thousand-Hand Asura, your fiancé got furious. He soloed the Shrek Seven and destroyed them. That Thousand-Hand Asura? He got turned into a porcupine and lost his soul bone—your fiancé ripped it out himself."
"The way he fought—those endless Blue Silver Grass blades—it was he who looked like the real Thousand-Hand Asura."
Shui Yue'er shivered just remembering it.
Shui Bing'er blinked, confused. Qian Renchuan was a healer—maybe a controller too. How could that match the title of Asura? But judging from her teammates' expressions, they weren't lying.
Could it be… Qian Renchuan wasn't just a healing-type?
"Agh—!"
Suddenly, Qian Renchuan's brows furrowed, and he let out a painful scream. His body convulsed violently. His chest arched, and his upper body bent unnaturally.
With the sound of tearing cloth, the back of his shirt shredded. Eight large lumps swelled along his spine.
Then they ruptured.
Out burst eight thick limbs—three meters long, spider-like. The Eight Spider Lances.
But unlike Tang San's poisonous purple ones, Qian Renchuan's were pale blue, with significantly reduced toxicity.
This was because external soul bones were affected by their host martial soul. Tang San's were initially toxic because both his soul bone and martial soul cultivated poison. Later on Sea God Island, after getting god-bestowed soul rings suited for the Blue Silver Emperor, the lances evolved into devouring gold threads.
A similar process had just occurred. Qian Renchuan's Eight Spider Lances regenerated, influenced by his Blue Silver King martial soul, and turned light blue.
Thanks to the lances, a previously blocked meridian was cleared, and his soul power surged to level 46.
The five Tianshui girls turned bright red. Some covered their eyes—but peeked through their fingers.
Some stared wide-eyed—especially Shui Yue'er, whose Dolphin martial soul made her more prone to heat.
With his shirt torn off, Qian Renchuan's sculpted abs and chiseled physique were on full display.
Reforged by the Angel martial soul, he looked like a delicate prince when clothed—but shirtless, he radiated explosive power.
Shui Bing'er blushed and quickly looked away. She now believed everything her teammates had told her. No way a healing-type soul master would have that body.
Qian Renchuan had been hiding his strength. That's why he claimed to be a healer.
And once a girl likes someone, the mind glosses over all flaws. Beauty overrides reason. Every action is reinterpreted positively.
Shui Bing'er now imagined Qian Renchuan came to Tianshui Academy to hide his strength and avoid attracting attention—an embodiment of virtue, purity, and self-restraint.
Honestly… based on how he had behaved in this academy of all girls, that image wasn't far off.
Meanwhile, things at Shrek Academy were bleak.
They'd spent a fortune hiring every healer from Soto Arena to treat the Shrek Seven and Flender.
Days later, though their injuries had healed, their morale was crushed. Even Tang San felt broken.
They thought they were in an unbeatable "Dragon Reborn" script—reliving the past and dominating all over again. Then came that monster who stole Tang San's external soul bone.
And he wasn't just any monster—he was from Spirit Hall, son of Qian Xunji, and had twin martial souls.
Tang San couldn't understand. Why did that person know Tang Sect techniques? He had never met him in his past life. Was he a reincarnated Tang Sect disciple? But he was the founder of the Tang Sect! Why would a disciple not recognize him—and instead come to kill him?
"Third Bro, what now?"
Ma Hongjun asked. The other five looked to Tang San. They had long relied on him to solve their problems.
Tang San sighed. "Things have spiraled beyond my control. I'll have to tell Father… everything about my past life."
