Chapter 320: Tang San Is in Danger, Yu Xiaogang Panics!
One stroke and all is forgotten?
Upon hearing the words of the hook-nosed middle-aged man, Lin Yu's expression immediately shifted between anger and uncertainty. He turned his head to look at Liu Erlong, seeking her opinion.
"Agree to it!"
Though unwilling, Liu Erlong knew that preserving Tang San's life was the priority. Looking at the severely beaten Tang San, she could only reluctantly say.
However, she couldn't help but feel annoyed. She had never been threatened like this before.
"We'll agree to your terms, now let him go!"
Hearing Liu Erlong's words, Lin Yu took a deep breath, his face cold as he made the decision. He looked at the hook-nosed middle-aged man and said indifferently.
"Hmph! Kid, empty words won't work. If you want us to release him now, what if you still don't let us go afterward?"
The hook-nosed middle-aged man sneered as if he didn't trust Lin Yu's words at all.
"So, what do you want?"
Noticing the hesitation in the hook-nosed middle-aged man's actions, Lin Yu grew impatient and asked.
"Simple. You keep a distance of at least one hundred meters from us. We'll take this kid all the way to the outer city of the Slaughter City and then let him go."
"In the outer city of the Slaughter City, there are rules. You don't need to worry about us killing anyone, and we don't need to worry about you either."
The hook-nosed middle-aged man spoke grimly.
"Fine!"
Upon hearing the hook-nosed middle-aged man's proposal, Lin Yu frowned slightly. After a brief discussion with Liu Erlong, he finally nodded in agreement.
The hook-nosed middle-aged man, accompanied by a group of Fallen Soul Masters, started dragging the already bruised and nearly unconscious Tang San, who resembled a pig's head, toward the outer city of the Slaughter City.
Behind them, Lin Yu and Liu Erlong maintained a hundred-meter distance and slowly followed.
Meanwhile, in the outer city of the Slaughter City.
In the same alleyway.
Yu Xiaogang was organizing his lesson plans for teaching Tang San in the coming days.
Biro, on the other hand, was sitting cross-legged in a corner, her eyes tightly shut, seemingly meditating, but her mind was filled with nervousness as she calculated the time.
A few days earlier, Lin Yu had instructed her to wait for half an hour after Tang San participated in the Hell Slaughter Field battle.
She had to pretend to sense that Tang San was in danger and make sure to bring Yu Xiaogang to wait in front of the entrance to the inner city of the Slaughter City.
Checking the time, it was almost time.
After a brief moment, Biro suddenly opened her eyes and stood up, pretending to be anxious as she began pacing the alley.
"What's wrong?"
Noticing Biro's unusual behavior, Yu Xiaogang asked in concern.
"Master, I... I suddenly feel uneasy. The last time my family was destroyed by the Spirit Hall, I felt the same way at the academy."
"Now I'm feeling that same way again. I sense that something's about to happen, but now my family is gone, and the only person connected to me is Tang San."
Biro placed a hand on her chest, acting extremely anxious.
"What! You said Tang San is in danger!"
Upon hearing Biro's words and the implied meaning, Yu Xiaogang's heart skipped a beat. He stood up quickly.
There were very few people Yu Xiaogang cared about in this world.
But if anyone was the most important to him now, it was certainly his disciple, Tang San.
Since the Douluo Continent was a fantasy world with all kinds of martial souls, some martial souls indeed possessed special abilities, such as the legendary Seven Treasure Glazed Tile martial soul, which had a treasure-hunting ability.
So it wasn't entirely impossible that Biro's martial soul could sense the danger of someone close to her.
"Yes, my feeling hasn't been wrong!"
Biro responded with certainty, though her voice trembled a little.
In fact, she believed that since the master had instructed her to say this, it was highly likely that things were unfolding just as he had described.
So Tang San was indeed in danger, but she didn't believe it would be life-threatening.
And as she thought about Tang San possibly being in danger, Biro felt an unexpected flutter in her heart.
Although she was no stranger to relationships, having used her Illusion Shell martial soul to attract countless men over the years, something about Tang San felt different to her.
Could it be that she had developed feelings for this young man?
Now, knowing that Tang San was in danger, she found herself actually worrying.
This left Biro feeling conflicted.
But for Biro, her life was still the most important thing, so she didn't dare to say anything rash.
Moreover, because she might have feelings for Tang San, she needed to keep her true identity hidden.
Otherwise, if Tang San found out who she really was, he might stop associating with her.
"So what should we do? Is Tang San in danger at the Hell Slaughter Field?"
Upon hearing Biro's confirmation, Yu Xiaogang grew increasingly anxious.
"I don't know, Master. Should we go and check? It's been over half an hour, so Tang San and the others should be returning soon."
"How about we wait for a while at the entrance to the inner city of the Slaughter City? If they don't come, we can go in and find them."
Seeing Yu Xiaogang's anxiousness, Biro quickly suggested.
"Alright!"
Yu Xiaogang agreed, feeling that it was a feasible plan. He hurriedly rushed out of the alley, heading for the entrance to the inner city of the Slaughter City.
Biro followed closely behind.
Soon, the two arrived at the entrance of the inner city of the Slaughter City, waiting.
After waiting for several minutes, they saw no one. They didn't even spot Lin Yu, Liu Erlong, or Tang San, which made Yu Xiaogang grow more anxious.
"Let's go in and check out the Hell Slaughter Field!"
"No! Master, it's not even been ten minutes yet. Let's wait a little longer. The inner city of the Slaughter City is too dangerous. If we go in, it would be like walking into death!"
"If Tang San and the others come out safely, but we die in there, then how will Tang San continue without his master's guidance?"
Since Lin Yu had previously instructed that neither Yu Xiaogang nor herself should go in, Biro quickly advised against it.
"Alright, we'll wait a bit longer."
After hearing Biro's words and considering the chaos and danger inside the Slaughter City's inner city, Yu Xiaogang reluctantly agreed to wait.
They waited for another five minutes.
Just as Yu Xiaogang couldn't wait any longer, footsteps suddenly sounded on the street of the inner city of the Slaughter City.
Then, they saw a group of Fallen Soul Masters, seemingly nervous, slowly retreating toward the entrance to the inner city.
Upon seeing this group of Fallen Soul Masters, Yu Xiaogang was momentarily stunned.
Why were there suddenly so many of them?
But as his gaze continued to follow, he saw a Soul Saint with an Eagle Martial Soul, holding a youth in tattered blue clothes, battered and bruised, almost looking like a pig's head.
Although the battered and bruised young man didn't immediately appear to be Tang San, Yu Xiaogang recognized him by the familiar clothes and the unexplainable connection between them.
This was his beloved disciple, Tang San!
Yu Xiaogang's heart skipped a beat, and panic surged through him. He felt as though he might cry.
Heavens! It was true! His beloved disciple, Tang San, was in danger!
