Chapter 42 Finished, was he backlashed by the soul beast's resentment?! [First Update]_1
"I have my reasons for what I do, you don't need to concern yourself with this matter!"
Dragon Lord said this with a hidden meaning.
He had taken an interest in this young man.
As for Yi Ran, dealing with such a little girl wouldn't be difficult.
"Hmph! Have it your way then!"
Snake Granny huffed, very dissatisfied.
In her opinion, they should have struck while he was weak.
Leaving him be could spell trouble for them later!
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was the next morning.
"Yi Ran, you're awake."
The morning sun shined down, revealing Meng Yi Ran's Soul Light gradually withdrawing back into her body.
"Granny, I successfully advanced to Level Thirty-One!"
Meng Yi Ran was very happy.
She hadn't expected that after two hard days of pursuing soul beasts, she would end up with such a windfall.
"The Shadow Poison Wolf as a soul beast is indeed very compatible with your Martial Soul. How is your third soul skill?"
Dragon Lord adjusted his beard and asked with a smile.
"My third soul skill is Serpent Shadow, which not only gave me the Shadow Poison Wolf's venom but also its speed. If I encounter that Tang San now, I would definitely beat him until he's searching for his teeth on the ground, and that bastard Ye Feng, I could also give him a good thrashing!!"
Upon mentioning Ye Feng, Meng Yi Ran's fists suddenly clenched.
She looked as if she was grinding her teeth with rage.
"Yes, yes, give him a good beating."
Dragon Lord heartily agreed, laughing.
Snake Granny, on the other hand, was rolling her eyes.
She wondered what sort of scheme the old coot was concocting.
"Grandpa, that Ye Feng hasn't left, has he? I'm going to settle the score with him now!"
At that time, Dragon Lord and Snake Granny, to avoid Ye Feng affecting Meng Yi Ran, had let him absorb the Soul Ring on the other side.
"He hasn't left, he hasn't left."
Dragon Lord appeared very indulgent.
Who didn't know that within the Meng family, Meng Yi Ran was the apple of these two elders' eyes, spoilt to the extreme.
"Why is he still in that state, has he been seriously injured?"
Approaching, Meng Yi Ran saw that Ye Feng was still in the same position as a few hours before, and now that it was daylight without the concealment of night, the blood on Ye Feng's body looked even more terrifying, especially the three blood streaks on his back which were shockingly vivid!
She had originally wanted to have a proper fight with Ye Feng, but how could she get revenge like this?!
"Cough, cough!!"
At that moment, Ye Feng suddenly coughed.
A mouthful of black blood came out.
"Grandpa!!"
Meng Yi Ran cried out in shock!
How could this guy just spit out blood for no reason!!
She hadn't even had her turn to hit back; this bastard absolutely couldn't die!
She had never been treated like this by anyone before; if she couldn't get revenge, she would explode with frustration!
"What's wrong?"
Dragon Lord hurried over.
He quickly took Ye Feng's hand.
Could it be that he was suffering backlash from the grudges of the soul beast?
If that was the case, it would be terrible.
If one suffered soul beast backlash and the brain got damaged, at best they'd end up a fool, at worst dead from bleeding from all orifices.
That would mean his whole night of vigilance had been in vain!!
"He, he's not dead, is he?"
Meng Yi Ran was seen clasping her little red lips with both her hands, looking utterly shocked.
Who under normal circumstances would vomit such dark blood!
And with such serious injuries, he seemed unlikely to survive, right?
Suddenly, Meng Yi Ran started to feel a little dejected.
"He's not going to die, he's not going to die. This young man really surprised me!"
Dragon Lord withdrew his Soul Power, looking utterly astonished.
The boy had actually absorbed the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring!
What a talent.
The best soul ring configuration for a normal Soul Ancestor was yellow, yellow, purple, purple!
Why the best, you may ask.
Because nearly all the outstanding Soul Masters in the Soul Masters world had this configuration.
And yet this lad had absorbed a black soul ring as his fourth soul ring, so his soul ring configuration should be yellow, yellow, purple, black!
Tell me, how many in this world could have such a level of configuration?
```
This child is absolutely a super genius rarely seen in a thousand years.
And previously, it was heard that he was at Canghui Academy.
In terms of student origin, Canghui Academy is considered one of the bottom academies on the Continent, where neither the children of nobles nor those of prestigious families would go, not to mention the royal household.
So basically, it is filled with children from rather ordinary families or those from minor wealth and nobility.
Given that, I believe it should be very easy to sway him with favorable conditions.
Dragon Lord let go of Ye Feng's hand.
At that moment, a myriad of thoughts were swirling in his mind.
"Grandpa, what's wrong with him?"
Meng Yiran saw her grandfather's strange demeanor and was immediately puzzled.
"It's nothing, he just cleared the stagnant blood in his body while absorbing a Soul Ring."
Dragon Lord said.
"Ah? Absorbing a Soul Ring??"
Meng Yiran was full of question marks!
Wasn't he continuously healing? How did it turn into absorbing a Soul Ring?
"That's right, absorbing a Soul Ring. He absorbed my old woman's Soul Ring!"
Snake Granny said with a face full of melancholy.
She looked just like a grieving widow.
Damn it!
The hard-caught Shadow Poison Wolf.
"Ah???"
Meng Yiran was even more confused.
Her mind couldn't quite catch up.
Wasn't the Soul Ring her grandmother was looking for a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring?
How could this bastard possibly absorb a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring?
He is not a Soul King!
Why did her grandparents' words make her so baffled?
"You old woman, I'll find you another Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring later, is there a need for such resentment?"
Dragon Lord grumbled in annoyance.
"Dragon Lord and Snake Granny?"
On the other side, Ye Feng slowly opened his eyes.
After one night, he finally absorbed the Soul Ring of the Shadow Poison Wolf.
Luckily, he had the System's support.
Otherwise, it really would have been touch-and-go!!
However, the moment he opened his eyes, he nearly jumped in shock.
In front of him were Dragon Lord, Snake Granny, and Meng Yiran!!
How could these three be here?
What exactly happened?
"Kid, you're finally awake, huh?"
Dragon Lord looked at Ye Feng with some surprise.
This kid actually knew who they, Dragon Lord and Snake Granny, were.
"You scoundrel! You're finally awake. I won't let you off for what happened before. I've now advanced to a Soul Elder and I want to challenge you again!!"
Seeing Ye Feng wake up,
The next second, Meng Yiran completely exploded.
A rage like no other made her forget all the confusion she had just a moment ago.
With the Shadow Poison Wolf Martial Soul from the Thousand-Year creature, she felt empowered in every aspect and couldn't believe she would be defeated in one move again!
"What a coincidence, I just became a Soul Ancestor."
Ye Feng stood up.
"What? A Soul Ancestor??"
Meng Yiran's body jolted upon hearing this, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion as she looked at Dragon Lord and Snake Granny.
"Heh, kid, you got promoted to Soul Ancestor by riding on someone else's coattails, what's there to be proud of!"
Snake Granny came over, leaning on her cane.
There was a tone of resentment in her voice.
"Riding on someone else's coattails???"
Ye Feng, upon hearing this, had a face full of question marks.
Whose coattails had he ridden on?
Wasn't the Soul Ring something he obtained through a life-and-death struggle? If she insisted he rode on coattails, he could only say he rode on the System's coattails!
