Douluo Continent: Disciple Tang San, righteous yet evil

Chapter 12 Yu Xiaogang, his gambling addiction flaring up, gambles again.

"Luo Sanpao, help me bite open these Blue Silver Grasses."

Under Yu Xiaogang's command, Luo Sanpao began to tear at the Blue Silver Grass on his body, but the Blue Silver Grass had already crystallized and was as hard as metal, so how could Luo Sanpao bite through it?

"what!!"

Suddenly, Yu Xiaogang let out a scream and yelled at Luo Sanpao, "You stupid pig, watch your aim better!"

Hearing his master's scolding, Luo Sanpao's eyes were full of grievance. These blue silver grasses were so tightly wrapped that no matter how careful he was, he was bound to get bitten.

"Don't waste your time, you can't break free," Tang San said impatiently.

After witnessing this scene, Tang San felt even more contempt for Yu Xiaogang. Even if his martial soul was a pig, he shouldn't have been insulted like that.

Fortunately, I didn't become that old geezer's apprentice, otherwise my lifelong reputation would have been ruined by this good-for-nothing, it would have been incredibly embarrassing.

As the saying goes, "A teacher for a day is a father for life," and he didn't want to have two useless fathers at the same time.

Perhaps influenced by Lin Mu, Tang San harbored a slight resentment towards Tang Hao.

After being bitten several times by Luo Sanpao, Yu Xiaogang finally gave up and vented his anger on Luo Sanpao.

If his martial soul hadn't mutated into this pig-like shape, would he have become a useless piece of trash?

The more Yu Xiaogang thought about it, the angrier he became. He gave Luo Sanpao a severe scolding. Faced with his master's insults, Luo Sanpao felt extremely wronged.

Seeing Yu Xiaogang's impotent rage, Lin Mu couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

He can't even work in unison with his own martial spirit, yet he still has the nerve to call himself a master.

"Gangzi, even if I give you a chance, it won't work."

Lin Mu picked up the soul tool and money bag from the ground and said with a contemptuous smile, "The outcome is decided, these are all ours."

Seeing his belongings taken away, Yu Xiaogang felt utterly devastated; he was now completely penniless.

Suddenly, Yu Xiaogang seemed to remember something and hurriedly shouted, "I want to bet with you again."

"You have nothing right now, why should I gamble with you?"

Seeing that Yu Xiaogang was already addicted, Lin Mu smiled mischievously, but pretended to be indifferent on the surface.

“I have another brother, no, two brothers, who can give me money.”

Yu Xiaogang hurriedly said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu immediately guessed which two people they were referring to. It must be Flander and Liu Erlong. However, he did not expect that Liu Erlong would become a brother who could lend money to Yu Xiaogang.

I really don't understand why women would like this kind of guy.

"Then let's talk about it when you've raised the money."

"No. Let's make a bet first. We'll bet on whether Tang San can reach level 30 in six years. If he can't, you and Tang San will have to cooperate with my research and declare yourselves to the outside world as my disciples. Otherwise, I'll give you 10,000 gold soul coins."

Yu Xiaogang's eyes gleamed with wisdom; he couldn't believe this guy wouldn't be tempted by the offer of ten thousand gold soul coins.

Lin Mu simply used two words to describe this.

"Stupid."

Ten thousand gold soul coins is a lot, but in six years, he will have at least cultivated to the Soul Emperor level. Why would he need ten thousand gold soul coins?

Moreover, this good-for-nothing actually went too far, not only eyeing Tang San but also plotting against him. His skin must be as thick as a city wall.

Hearing Lin Mu's insults, Yu Xiaogang blushed and continued, "How about 100,000 gold soul coins?"

In fact, Yu Xiaogang didn't know if Flander and Liu Erlong could come up with 100,000 gold soul coins, but at this point, he couldn't care less about that.

In his view, reaching level 30 within six years was simply impossible, especially since Tang San was a Blue Silver Grass Soul Master. If he won, he could gain two genius disciples in one fell swoop, and Lin Mu was already there; he wouldn't even need his instruction to earn him enough prestige.

"Gangzi, just give up on that idea. I have no chance of having anything to do with you."

Lin Mu's tone was absolutely firm, leaving no room for negotiation.

Putting aside the fact that the bet was unequal, the idea of ​​him becoming Yu Xiaogang's disciple was absolutely impossible.

Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang had no choice but to back down, saying, "Change it to Tang San claiming to be my disciple, is that alright?"

"Okay, 100,000 gold soul coins. Sign and put your fingerprint on it."

Lin Mu kept this in mind, lest Yu Xiaogang go back on his word later. As long as he had a written agreement, he could ask Liu Erlong and Flander for the money.

Before long, both parties had completed the signing and sealing.

Yu Xiaogang looked at the document in Lin Mu's hand, which already had his fingerprint on it, but not his own. He had a strange feeling of unease.

"Why is there only one? Where's mine?"

“One is enough,” Lin Mu said, leaving no room for argument.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang instantly realized he had been tricked, but the die was cast and he had to take the plunge, even if it was just for the slightest possibility.

"Xiao San, this soul tool is for you."

Lin Mu slowly stepped forward and placed the soul tool in Tang San's hand.

He already has a soul tool, although it is less than five cubic meters in size, it is enough for now.

"Master."

Looking at the soul tool in his hand, Tang San was deeply moved, and at the same time, a sense of guilt arose spontaneously.

Previously, he was dissatisfied with his master's actions, but he never expected that his master did all this to help him obtain this storage soul tool.

Moreover, the master must have wanted to teach him a lesson through this incident: as long as what you do is right, the process is not important.

After some self-conception, Lin Mu's status in Tang San's heart quickly rose, even subtly surpassing Tang Hao's.

One is an irresponsible biological father, and the other is a mentor who wholeheartedly cares for him. Which one is better? Anyone would know how to choose.

[Upon reaching 10% completion of the main quest, you will be rewarded with a level increase in Soul Power.]

Feeling his soul power break through to level 48, Lin Mu's lips curled up slightly. Compared to an inanimate object, the improvement of strength was the most important thing.

Lin Mu patted Tang San on the shoulder, his expression turning serious, and said earnestly, "Little San, your best reward to me is simply to cultivate diligently."

“Master, I will definitely cultivate diligently in the future and heed your teachings.”

Seeing how much his master cared for him, Tang San was deeply moved and secretly vowed to repay his master's kindness in the future.

Seeing this touching scene of master and apprentice affection, Yu Xiaogang felt superfluous and turned to leave.

But he hadn't walked far when he realized something was wrong.

Lin Mu won the soul tool in a gamble and then gave it to Tang San, doing all the good deeds himself.

"I've lived for decades, and I've been outsmarted by a mere brat."

Yu Xiaogang belatedly realized that this guy was really only a teenager.

Lin Mu watched Yu Xiaogang's departing figure with a smile on his lips; the real show was yet to come.
