Douluo Continent: I, Tang Wulin, a Kamen Rider

Chapter 92 Is Gu Yue really human?

Tang Wulin, looking at Gu Yue with her head down, also felt a pang of anxiety.

Thinking about Gu Yue's usual personality and her cold attitude towards outsiders, Tang Wulin felt that he might have said something wrong.

But on the night Gu Yue rescued him and they fought against Guang Biao together, he truly regarded Gu Yue as his friend and partner.

But now, it seems he has misunderstood Gu Yue's thoughts? Or perhaps he has touched upon Gu Yue's painful memories?

Just as Tang Wulin was hesitating whether or not to apologize.

"study."

Gu Yue raised her head at some point and was looking at him intently.

"Huh?" Tang Wulin blinked.

Seeing this, Gu Yue snatched the storybook from Tang Wulin's hand and pointed to the picture book with Blue Rabbit and Rainbow Cat drawn on it.

"I said I want to learn, but I won't learn anyone else's swordsmanship. I'll only learn the swordsmanship of Blue Rabbit and Rainbow Cat!"

"Furthermore, I want the Ice Soul Sword in Blue Rabbit's hand. I know you can summon it; I saw the Rainbow Sword in your hand that day."

"Huh? Oh, okay." After a moment of surprise, Tang Wulin nodded repeatedly, indicating that he would do whatever she said.

Seeing this, Gu Yue finally threw the storybook back with satisfaction.

Then, watching Tang Wulin throw the storybook back into the fourth-dimensional fantasy world, Gu Yue asked casually.

"Oh right, I just remembered."

"The main characters in your storybook, as well as the characters in your previous two storybooks, don't seem to be human; they're all spirit beasts?"

Tang Wulin was slightly taken aback, then nodded.

"Yes, Tyrannomon, Ornn, and Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit can all be considered beasts, or you could say they are soul beasts."

Upon seeing this, a glint flashed in Gu Yue's eyes.

"So, it seems you don't have any aversion or hostility towards soul beasts?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin looked at Gu Yue with a puzzled expression once again.

Why should I feel disgust and hostility towards spirit beasts?

Gu Yue was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

But after recalling Na'er's memories, she realized what had happened.

Times are different.

Soul Masters today are not like they used to be.

Nowadays, most people have never seen a real soul beast from childhood to adulthood, and they even have to buy soul spirits to break through their limits.

Perhaps this is why Tang Wulin did not harbor hostility or even greed towards soul beasts.

With that in mind, Gu Yue took another step forward, looked closely into Tang Wulin's eyes, and asked.

"What about the spirit rings and spirit bones of spirit beasts? If a spirit beast appears in front of you, don't you ever want to kill it to obtain its spirit rings and spirit bones?"

Tang Wulin was somewhat puzzled to see that Gu Yue, who was usually indifferent, had become so serious about this matter.

Because, for him now...

Soul beasts are basically like the endangered protected animals he saw in history books in his previous life.

So why would he go around killing soul beasts for no reason?
Moreover, even if he did encounter a spirit beast that is almost a rare protected species, it wouldn't make any difference.

After all, spirit rings and spirit bones are meaningless to him.

However, upon thinking about this, Tang Wulin, a novelist, also realized that something was amiss.

Because Gu Yue was behaving very strangely at this moment, just like the strange things Na'er said to him after her transformation.

The current Gu Yue is inconsistent with the indifferent persona she has always portrayed!
With this in mind, Tang Wulin, being an omniscient being, immediately used the Book of Fantasy Omnipotence in his mind to search for Gu Yue's identity.

Normally speaking, Gu Yue's current strength should be inferior to that of someone who has already mastered three fantasy books, two holy swords, and awakened sword intent.

Furthermore, it's just a small piece of information like "what race does Gu Yue currently belong to?" He believed his Omnipotent Book of Fantasy would still be able to find out.

As a result, after a few seconds of reading the fantasy omnipotent book, he successfully obtained the answer.

Gu Yue is now a human.

"Phew~ I thought Gu Yue would be like Xiao Wu from the Shrek Seven Devils 20,000 years ago. It seems I was overthinking it."

"In that case, I don't need to rely on the power of the Omnipotent Fantasy Book to help Gu Yue hide her identity."

Tang Wulin patted his chest inwardly and relaxed.

He then responded seriously to Gu Yue's question.

"No, under normal circumstances I would never intentionally harm anyone or any life, including soul beasts, because in my eyes they are miracles of life."

Finally, Tang Wulin thought for a moment and then added.

"Of course, if anyone tries to harm the person I'm protecting, my sword will not hesitate to strike."

"As for whether I will hunt soul beasts for soul rings and soul bones, you don't need to worry about that."

"I can make a promise to you here that I will not actively absorb any soul rings or soul bones from any soul beasts in the future."

After saying that, Tang Wulin earnestly extended his little finger to Gu Yue.

Seeing this, Gu Yue remained silent for a moment, then calmly raised her hand.

"You said it yourself, I didn't force you."

"Yes, of course, this is an agreement between you and me."

Just as Gu Yue was about to hook her finger with his and make a promise with him.

Tang Wulin nodded immediately, then revealed a happy smile of "being recognized".

"It's an agreement."

Seeing Tang Wulin's happy smile, Gu Yue's heart skipped a beat.

Na'er's memories surged into her mind like a tidal wave at this moment.

Her past daily life with Tang Wulin, and the smiles in her memory, overlapped with it at this moment.

However, after a slight moment of surprise, Gu Yue quickly came to her senses. Then, after looking at Tang Wulin, who was still grinning foolishly, she turned cold and left.

"Hey, what's wrong, Gu Yue?"

Seeing Gu Yue suddenly turn cold and walk away, refusing to link fingers with him, Tang Wulin was also somewhat bewildered.

He really couldn't understand what was wrong with Gu Yue today.

Why are my moods so changeable? Is it really true that a woman's heart is as unfathomable as the bottom of the sea?

Is it unpredictable?

But this is a really quick change of heart!
Gu Yue responded calmly, "It's nothing. I just suddenly remembered that some idiot just said he wouldn't actively absorb soul rings and soul bones."

"Oh, is there a problem with that?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin became even more bewildered, looking at Gu Yue with a completely clueless expression.

Seeing that Tang Wulin hadn't reacted yet, Gu Yue sneered.

"Heh, you really are just a hot-blooded idiot who only knows how to use brute force. It's a shame you're a writer of novels!"

"What, Writer Tang, don't you know that if humans don't absorb soul bones, they'll just lose a few soul skills?"

"But if you don't have spirit rings, then you'll never be able to break through the limits of your strength, right?"

"Or are you saying, Tang, that you plan to stay at the Soul Master level forever and use your level 19 strength to protect me?"

As she spoke, the disdain in Gu Yue's eyes became increasingly apparent.

It seems that in her eyes, Tang Wulin is just a gorilla with strength but no intelligence.
