"Sigh!"
"To think I'd be so pathetic over a woman. So pathetic."
Tang Hao let out a long sigh. He didn't remember being a simpering fool. How could the son he'd given birth to, Tang San, become one?
He couldn't understand it. If he had twin Martial Souls, possessing the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul, he'd almost doubt if Tang San was his own son.
Truth be told, Tang San wasn't strictly Tang Hao's biological son.
His biological son had already died, taken over by a Tang San from another world.
Tang Hao was too embarrassed to watch any longer; he had lost all face.
If it weren't for the need to protect Ah Yin's flesh and blood, he would have abandoned Tang San long ago.
As Tang San left the cafeteria, the surrounding chatter quickly died down. This was because Chen Qingling and the other two were having a celebration banquet in the cafeteria.
Their mockery of Tang San was meant to make him realize his place and not disturb Chen Qingling's celebration banquet.
After all, Qingling was beautiful, kind-hearted, and the goddess of Nuoding Academy. Who wouldn't like her?
Tang San's actions were known throughout the academy, making him a figure of scorn.
The world achieved a state where only Tang San was hurt.
Half an hour later, the three of them, satiated, finished their celebration banquet and returned to their dormitory.
Xiao Wu sat on the bed, hugging Chen Qingling's body as usual, whispering secrets.
"Sister Qingling, are you going to the Soul Hunting Forest to hunt soul beasts tomorrow?"
Chen Qingling nodded slightly. "I probably will."
"And you're going alone?"
Xiao Wu frowned. She couldn't rest easy with Sister Qingling going to the Soul Hunting Forest by herself; it was too dangerous.
Even though she knew of Chen Qingling's legendary feats, she still couldn't shake her unease.
She had been given a chance to leave the Star Dou Great Forest, to walk out unscathed without encountering a single soul beast.
Even Xiao Wu, a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, had encountered several waves of soul beasts when she left the Star Dou Great Forest.
It was hard for her to understand why Chen Qingling had such incredible luck, as if she were favored by the goddess of fortune.
Chen Qingling smiled faintly, stroking Xiao Wu's hair. "Oh my, you're worried about me?"
"You know my luck, I always bring good fortune, I won't be affected by bad luck at all."
"Besides, I didn't say I was going alone. Teachers Song Yan and Song Qingyu from the academy will be accompanying me."
"With two teachers accompanying me, nothing will go wrong for sure."
Xiao Wu's worried heart finally settled. "That's good, that's good."
"Xiao Wu, I have to get up early tomorrow, so I'm going to sleep now."
"Okay."
As the words fell, Chen Qingling closed her eyes and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Xiao Wu quietly watched her, a smile like that of an aunt on her face.
She truly wished Chen Qingling could sleep on, carefree and oblivious.
It was truly wonderful to have a naive and innocent girl as a friend.
The next morning.
Chen Qingling woke up early and tiptoed out of the dormitory without waking anyone.
She stood alone at the academy gate, silently waiting for the two teachers.
Soon, the two twin teachers walked over and greeted Chen Qingling.
"Student Qingling, you arrived so early, you haven't been waiting long, have you?"
"No, I just arrived a few minutes early."
"Let's go."
The three of them took a carriage to the nearest Soul Hunting Forest outside Nuoding City.
Half an hour later.
The three of them got off the carriage and walked into the Soul Hunting Forest shoulder to shoulder.
Walking through the dense forest, Chen Qingling's eyes unfocused, giving her the illusion of returning to the Star Dou Great Forest.
Back then, she had met her master and Rongrong.
So much time had passed, she wondered how they were doing.
Chen Qingling couldn't help but miss her master and Rongrong.
"According to records, the limit for a Soul Master's second Soul Ring is around seven hundred years. Given your innate full Soul Power talent, you can look for a Soul Beast around seven hundred years old."
"Student Qingling, have you decided what kind of Soul Beast you want?"
"What kind of soul beast should I look for…" Chen Qingling lowered her head, her mind racing.
Her Martial Soul was the Goddess of Light Butterfly.
Naturally, she needed to find a corresponding soul beast.
It had to be a butterfly-type soul beast, or one with the same attribute.
Butterfly-type soul beasts were already rare, and soul beasts with light attributes were even rarer.
It was impossible for them to exist in such a low-level Soul Hunting Forest.
Only the two great soul beast paradises, Star Dou Great Forest and Sunset Forest, might have soul beasts with light attributes.
"Teacher, I want to find a butterfly-type soul beast."
"This… is difficult to find."
"This Soul Hunting Forest does have butterfly-type soul beasts, but their numbers are very small, and it's not easy to encounter one."
"What's more, wanting a nine-hundred-year-old one makes it even harder."
"Then… what should I do…"
Chen Qingling was hesitant for a moment.
"It's okay, don't rush. We have time to look slowly."
"As long as student Qingling isn't in a hurry, you'll eventually find one."
Chen Qingling nodded, hoping her usual good luck would help her find a suitable soul beast soon.
Far away in the thatched cottage in the Star Dou Great Forest, Chen Shengguo was suddenly awakened by a heavenly sound in his mind.
[Ding! Detected that the cultivated target Chen Qingling needs help. Do you want to spend five hundred points to exchange for a Butterfly Attracting Flower!]
[Butterfly Attracting Flower: A flower that can attract butterfly-type soul beasts.]
Chen Shengguo paused for a few seconds.
"Butterfly Attracting Flower?"
Instantly, his mind cleared. His daughter was looking for a suitable second soul beast! At this moment, Chen Shengguo's heart was filled with excitement.
Finally! Finally, the wait was over! His own second soul ring would also have a chance!
Wonderful! Chen Shengguo was overjoyed and quickly said, "Exchange! Exchange!"
For his daughter to find a suitable soul beast sooner, sacrificing five hundred points was worth it! …
Soul Hunting Forest.
The three walked forward, encountering quite a few soul beasts, but none suitable.
Just then, Chen Qingling felt something suddenly appear in her pocket, and her eyes lit up.
No way! I was just looking for a suitable soul beast, and Dad sensed it and sent it to me? Will taking this out give the two teachers a bit of a shock from Dad?
Ah, forget it.
Chen Qingling took it out directly. Upon closer inspection, it was a blooming flower.
This… this isn't right?!
This doesn't match the script Chen Qingling had in mind!
What's the purpose of this flower? Chen Qingling didn't think her dad would send something unimportant, so this flower must be useful.
It's just that she couldn't figure out its use for the moment.
"Student Qingling! The flower in your hand…"
"Huh? What's wrong? Teacher?"
"Where did you get it from? Don't you know you shouldn't casually pick unknown flowers in the Soul Hunting Forest? What if it's poisonous?"
"No… Teacher…"
"I didn't get this from the Soul Hunting Forest, but rather…"
Mid-sentence, Chen Qingling couldn't continue. Her eyes widened as she looked past the two teachers.
