"Thank you, Rongrong, but Xiaowu has been kidnapped for over two months, and now her life or death is uncertain. I really can't let it go."
After hearing Ning Rongrong's words, Tang San looked up and smiled bitterly.
Ever since Flanders and the others discovered that Xiao Wu was captured by strangers more than two months ago, Tang San and the others have used all means to find Xiao Wu's whereabouts.
This incident even alarmed the people of Tiandou Royal Academy. After all, the person disappeared within their jurisdiction, and it would not sound good to tell others about it.
But even though the Tiandou Royal Academy and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect worked together, they were unable to track down even a trace of clues.
Unlike the original novel where Tang San was hastily abducted, Dugu Bo attached great importance to Xiao Wu, a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast.
In order to prevent the whereabouts of the one hundred thousand year old transformed soul beast from being exposed and thus causing huge trouble, Dugu Bo was extremely careful and erased all traces that could be tracked, truly making sure nothing was leak-proof.
Therefore, no matter how Tang San and his companions tracked her down, as long as they were not sure that the person who abducted Xiao Wu was Dugu Bo, they would not be able to find Xiao Wu.
"By the way, how's Qingmu doing?"
At this time, Tang San asked Ning Rongrong.
Shortly after Xiao Wu disappeared, Qing Mu's whereabouts were also unknown, which naturally attracted the attention of Tang San and others. They even suspected that Qing Mu's disappearance and Xiao Wu's kidnapping were done by the same person.
Ning Rongrong shook her head and said, "I haven't received any news."
"Is that so?"
Tang San frowned slightly. Where did Xiao Wu go?
On the other side, Qing Mu finally arrived at Tiandou Royal Academy after a period of trekking.
After entering the academy, Qing Mu quickly discovered that other people looked at him strangely.
So Qing Mu stopped someone and asked, "Classmate, what happened? Why are you looking at me with such surprise?"
"We thought you were caught like Xiao Wu, but now it seems that is not the case." The student explained the reason to Qing Mu.
Upon hearing this, Qingmu's brows furrowed slightly. Xiaowu was captured?
Before Qingmu left, although Tiandou Royal Academy was also helping in the search, it blocked the spread of the news. In addition, Qingmu was fully focused on his studies, so he did not know the news.
"Could it be that old guy Dugu Bo who kidnapped Xiao Wu?" Qing Mu thought to himself.
Although Qingmu didn't know what exactly happened, based on the existing information, Qingmu quickly guessed the general situation.
A Titled Douluo can see through the identity of a hundred thousand year old transformed soul beast. Given how precious Titled Douluos are, there shouldn't be a second Titled Douluo in the Tiandou Royal Academy. So it's highly likely that Dugu Bo did it.
After all, in the original novel, it was too outrageous that Dugu Bo couldn't see such a huge 100,000-year-old soul beast right in front of him. It is normal for him to catch it now that he sees it.
But Qing Mu soon smiled and shook his head. So what if it was Dugu Bo who caught her? Xiao Wu's life or death had nothing to do with him.
What's more, Xiao Wu is not even a human, but a soul beast. Even if her transformed form looks better, she is still a soul beast!
Isn't it perfectly normal for soul beasts to be killed by soul masters and their soul rings and soul bones hunted?
Then, Qing Mu nodded to the student and said, "Thank you for letting me know."
A moment later, Qingmu found Ye Lingling. When Ye Lingling saw Qingmu, she was immediately delighted, but also revealed a resentful expression. "Where have you been all this time?"
"Senior Dugu asked me to help him treat his illness. I didn't have time to tell you because the time was too tight. I'm sorry." Qing Mu replied with a hint of apology.
Ye Lingling snorted softly and said, "This won't happen again."
Then the two chatted with each other about their situations.
Ye Lingling is still at level 37. Without any external support, just over two months is not enough for her to advance to the next level.
And Qingmu has now reached level 39 through the feedback from Bulbasaur, surpassing Ye Lingling's level.
This made Qing Mu understand more clearly how difficult it was for ordinary people to practice. Ye Lingling was able to stand out and become the auxiliary of the Royal Fighting Team. Even though she had the Nine-Hearted Begonia because of her, her basic talent was also quite good and she could definitely be called a genius.
But even for Ye Lingling, under normal circumstances, she can only maintain a speed of more than two levels per year.
As for those with average talent, it would be a problem whether they could advance one level a year. No wonder Soul Master could eliminate a large number of people.
Suddenly, Qing Mu said to Ye Lingling, "Lingling, I'm going home. If you have time, can you come with me?"
"go home?"
Hearing this, Ye Lingling seemed to have thought of something, and a blush suddenly appeared on her face, but she still nodded.
Seeing Ye Lingling agreed, Qing Mu smiled faintly. With his current cultivation speed, even a genius like Qian Renxue with an innate level 20 soul power would need to use all his strength to keep up, not to mention Ye Lingling as an assistant.
Therefore, Qing Mu needs to use the magic grass to cleanse Ye Lingling's bones and marrow and increase her cultivation speed. Otherwise, with Ye Lingling's current cultivation speed, she will not be able to keep up with him.
However, if used within the Tiandou Royal Academy, this sudden surge in soul power would be too conspicuous and difficult to explain.
It just so happened that Qing Mu was preparing to go home to use the magic grass to improve the qualifications of Qing Tianfeng and Xu Yao, so he invited Ye Lingling to go home with him so that they could avoid other people's attention.
As for why Ye Lingling's level increased so much after she came back, it can be completely attributed to Dugu Bo. After all, Qing Mu did get the magic grass from Dugu Bo, so there is nothing wrong with saying that.
Even the evolution of Bulbasaur after Qingmu can be explained by this excuse.
The Titled Douluo still holds a very high status in people's hearts. People only wonder what kind of opportunity Dugu Bo got, but they don't doubt whether the Titled Douluo has the ability.
After a simple packing, Qing Mu and Ye Lingling took a long vacation and left Tiandou Royal Academy together.
"I forgot my friends because of a beautiful woman. I kind of regret bringing them together."
Dugu Yan looked at Qing Mu and Ye Lingling leaving together, curled her lips, and said somewhat unhappily.
Ever since Qing Mu came, her priority in Ye Lingling's eyes has dropped a level, and her feelings are completely different.
However, Dugu Yan was just saying it. Ye Lingling was her best friend, and Qing Mu was also her benefactor because he cured her illness. Seeing that the two of them had such a good relationship, she was still very happy in her heart.
"Who made my Yanyan unhappy?"
At this time, a figure appeared behind Dugu Yan and smiled at her.
