Chapter 734 The Cultivation Method of Twin Martial Souls
"Alright, Xiaogang, you can say what you have to say now."
Entering the room, Flander pulled his hand away from Yu Xiaogang's, watching the latter close the door with a strange expression, wondering to himself:
"What's wrong with Xiaogang? He suddenly pulled me into the room and closed the door. What's he trying to do?"
Yu Xiaogang didn't notice the strange look on Flander's face. After confirming that the door was closed tightly and no one was eavesdropping, he turned to look at Flander, whose dark face had become serious and earnest.
"Flander, I've called you here because I have something important to entrust to you."
Yu Xiaogang's voice carried an instruction, yet also contained a hint of command. With a single sentence, he defined what he was about to say, leaving Flander no room for refusal.
"Is there something you need me to do?"
Flander's expression faltered slightly, and he glanced at him in surprise. Seeing Yu Xiaogang's serious demeanor, he also straightened his expression.
"What is it? Tell me."
Yu Xiaogang's eyes flickered slightly. After hesitating for a moment, he briefly explained his travel plans:
"I plan to go to Wuhun City."
"Huh? To Wuhun City?"
Flanders tilted his head, somewhat puzzled, and subconsciously said:
"Go ahead and go. The qualifying rounds will be held in Wuhun City anyway, and everyone will be going, including you as the team leader."
Finally, Flander seemed to realize something and frowned slightly:
"You don't necessarily intend to skip it, do you?"
Hearing Flander's words, Yu Xiaogang was speechless for a moment, realizing that Flander had misunderstood him, and immediately shook his head to explain:
"Flander, you've misunderstood. It's not that I'm not going; it's that I plan to go to Spirit City first and then wait for you there."
Upon hearing this, Flander became even more confused, staring wide-eyed at Yu Xiaogang:
"What? You're planning to go alone first?"
After a brief pause, Flanders asked again:
Why is that?
"If you're going to Wuhun City, you can come with us; it'll be safer that way. Why bother going ahead by yourself?"
"I have my reasons."
Yu Xiaogang's eyes flickered a few times, he put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, remained silent for a moment, and then said in a hoarse voice:
"I'm going to Wuhun City to take care of something very important, but it's not for myself, it's for Xiaosan."
"For the sake of a mistress?" Flander's face showed a hint of surprise. "What do you mean?"
Yu Xiaogang didn't speak. He walked to the only window in the barracks, glanced at the scenery outside, then turned to Flander and said in a slightly questioning tone:
"You already knew that the mistress possesses two martial souls, didn't you, Flander?"
A flash of insight crossed his mind, and Flander immediately understood Yu Xiaogang's meaning, exclaiming in realization:
"Is it because of the conflict between the mistress's twin martial souls?"
"good."
Yu Xiaogang nodded and said frankly:
"Everyone knows that those with twin martial souls are born with an extra martial soul compared to others, and are special beings who are blessed by heaven and have extraordinary talents."
"However, it also has a huge drawback: after attaching spirit rings to two martial souls, the body may not be able to withstand the impact of the energy of the multi-attribute spirit rings and may face the danger of self-destruction."
"This is the conflict between twin martial souls, a conflict that can be fatal. The reason why twin martial souls cannot be cultivated at the same time is because of this huge drawback."
At this point, Yu Xiaogang let out a heavy sigh:
"That's why I only let Xiao San cultivate one martial soul and only added a soul ring to the Blue Silver Grass."
"According to my original plan, Xiao San should first cultivate the Blue Silver Grass to its peak, and then cultivate the Clear Sky Hammer. This is the safest way to avoid the risk of martial soul conflict to the greatest extent."
"But now, for the sake of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, Xiao San has temporarily given up the cultivation of Blue Silver Grass and turned to cultivate the Clear Sky Hammer."
"The power of the Clear Sky Hammer is obvious to all, but I'm also afraid that Xiao San will become lost in its power and completely abandon the cultivation of Blue Silver Grass, instead focusing on adding a soul ring to the Clear Sky Hammer."
"I understand the mistress's personality. On the surface, she is mild-mannered and obedient, but inside she is extremely stubborn, arrogant, and self-centered. If she doesn't listen to advice and actually acts that way, then things will be terrible."
At this point, Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but feel a headache and annoyance, but he quickly suppressed it and continued:
"Therefore, I must find a way to stop this dangerous trend, and finding a solution to the drawbacks of twin martial souls is undoubtedly the best choice."
"If we can find the correct cultivation method for twin martial souls and completely resolve the conflict between them, then all problems will be solved."
"This was my original intention in taking my mistress as my apprentice, and it was also a promise I made to him. It wasn't just empty talk."
Flander's mouth dropped open as he listened, but he also knew the seriousness of the conflict between the twin martial souls, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
After a moment of silence, he looked at Yu Xiaogang with hope in his eyes and asked:
"Xiao Gang, as a master of martial spirit theory with the most in-depth research on martial spirit knowledge, is there really no way to solve the drawbacks faced by Xiao San's twin martial spirits?"
Hearing Flander's words, Yu Xiaogang felt slightly embarrassed, but he didn't show it, simply shaking his head slightly.
"Without enough examples to refer to, it's no easy task to derive the accurate cultivation method for twin martial souls."
"In my experience, the only thing we can do right now is to let the three of them cultivate one at a time and put the other aside, in order to delay the conflict between the two martial souls as much as possible."
After a pause, Yu Xiaogang glanced at Flander, who seemed lost in thought, and continued:
"In the past thousand years, there have been only three recorded individuals who possessed twin martial souls, and that includes Xiao San."
"As for the other two..."
"One of them died from a collision caused by a conflict between their martial souls, leaving no trace. Only a few sentences in the records remain."
"The other one is still around, but she's not someone we can usually contact. And as you know, she's none other than Bibi Dong, the current Pope of the Spirit Hall."
As he spoke, a hint of reminiscence flashed across Yu Xiaogang's eyes, and a charming and beautiful figure appeared in his mind, his expression gradually becoming infatuated.
"Pope Bibi Dong?"
At this moment, Flander finally understood why Yu Xiaogang was rushing to Wuhun City; it turned out he had this plan.
"So, your trip to Spirit City is to meet that woman and get a solution to the conflict between your twin spirits?"
As Flander spoke, he gave Yu Xiaogang a strange look.
"Yes, if we want to obtain the correct cultivation method for twin martial souls as soon as possible and completely resolve the conflict between Xiao San's twin martial souls, we can only start with her."
Yu Xiaogang nodded, not denying it.
"What about Erlong?"
After hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Flander was somewhat annoyed and felt sorry for Liu Erlong. However, he suddenly fell silent halfway through his sentence.
He then realized that Liu Erlong had already "fallen in love with someone else," and the person she loved was no longer the jade master in front of her.
For Yu Xiaogang, Liu Erlong is already his ex. Now that he wants to go back to his ex-ex and rekindle their relationship, there doesn't seem to be anything to criticize.
Neither Liu Erlong nor Yu Xiaogang said much. What right did an outsider like themselves have to interfere?
Flanders murmured a few times, but ultimately could not utter another word.
Yu Xiaogang, however, failed to notice the change in Flander's expression. Remembering that there was something else he needed to ask the latter to do, his thick lips immediately moved, and he quickly said:
"Oh, right, speaking of Erlong, there's something else I need you to do."
Flander was overwhelmed with mixed feelings at that moment and didn't really listen to what he said, only subconsciously responding:
"Okay, go ahead."
Yu Xiaogang's eyes flickered slightly, and his tone suddenly became solemn and sinister:
"Flander, as you know, the place I'm going to this time is Spirit City, which is the territory of the Spirit Hall, but the Spirit Hall has not treated me kindly."
"In addition, Tang Hao murdered the former Pope Qian Xunji back then, so the Clear Sky Sect and the Spirit Hall have long been at odds. As Tang Hao's son, Xiao San also has a deep hatred for the Spirit Hall. The two sides are destined to fight to the death in the future."
"The Spirit Hall is currently in power because of my old acquaintance, Bibi Dong, with whom I have a close relationship."
"But times have changed, and I have no idea what Bibi Dong has become now, whether she still cares about our past friendship, or whether she will give me face."
"I'm worried that she might not care about our past relationship and could harm me and Xiao San if we go to Wuhun City. Just in case, I hope you can call Erlong over to protect me and Xiao San together."
Flanders paused for a moment, then repeated the question as if he hadn't heard clearly:
"Huh? You called Erlong over to protect you and Tang San?"
Yu Xiaogang nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world:
"Yes, this is all to prevent problems before they occur."
"With the combined martial soul fusion skill of you, me, and Erlong—Golden Sacred Dragon—as a guarantee, then Xiao San and I are naturally safe."
"Erlong is now a Soul Douluo of level 80 or above, and your strength far surpasses what it was back then."
"According to my estimation, if our Golden Iron Triangle could reunite, the power we would unleash would be several times greater than it was back then. Let alone reaching the Title Douluo level, it's even possible that we would reach the Super Douluo level."
Yu Xiaogang's words made Flander's heart itch; to be honest, he was tempted.
Back then, he, Yu Xiaogang, and Liu Erlong, the three siblings, formed the Golden Iron Triangle and roamed the Douluo Continent with such glory and high spirits.
Unexpectedly, they parted on bad terms due to some trivial matters.
Now, twenty years have passed, and everything has changed. The siblings have grown estranged from each other and it is difficult for them to reunite.
Now that Yu Xiaogang has invited Liu Erlong to go to Wuhun City to protect him and Tang San, it could be a good opportunity to ease the tension between the two.
"Alright, leave this to me. I will do my best to persuade Erlong."
Flander thought about it carefully, nodded in agreement, and finally couldn't help but offer a word of advice to Yu Xiaogang:
"But Xiaogang, are you really not coming with us?"
"Since you're worried that Bibi Dong might harm you, wouldn't it be like throwing yourself to the wolves, even more dangerous, if you went to Wuhun City alone ahead of time?"
Yu Xiaogang, however, didn't seem to care and waved his hand confidently:
"It's alright. It's actually better for me to go earlier."
"That woman Bibi Dong is incredibly stupid. She loved me to death back then. If it weren't for that bitch Qian Xunji interfering and banishing me from Wuhun City on trumped-up charges, I would have captured Bibi Dong long ago."
"I'm quite confident in my charm. With our past friendship, I don't think Bibi Dong will do anything to me. In fact, she might even throw herself at me."
As Yu Xiaogang spoke, for some reason, his chin suddenly rose high, while he feigned a sigh:
"Sigh, for the sake of my mistress and the cultivation method of twin martial souls, I have no choice but to compromise myself."
What? You want to humble yourself? Where do you get your confidence? Don't you have any self-awareness about your own level?
He is now the Pope of the Spirit Hall, a figure revered by millions of soul masters, and his strength is boundless.
You are just a lowly level 29 Great Soul Master. Although you have some reputation in the theory of Martial Souls, that's all. You don't deserve to be with her.
You two are not even in the same league.
Flander was filled with questions, his mind churning with a thousand complaints, but he dared not say them aloud in front of Yu Xiaogang, for fear of hurting Yu Xiaogang's fragile self-esteem.
"Alright, as long as you understand."
Flanders had no choice but to swallow his grievances back down his throat and instead agree with him.
"Alright, that's enough, I need to hurry and get going."
Suppressing his inexplicable confidence, Yu Xiaogang turned around and began packing his luggage, instructing Flander as he did so:
"There's still a month until the finals. While I'm gone, I'm leaving those little monsters, Xiao San, in your care. Make sure they're safe."
"Also, call Erlong over as soon as possible."
Mentioning Liu Erlong, Yu Xiaogang seemed to recall something; his hands suddenly paused, and his expression turned grim.
"Don't let her keep hanging around that damn Spirit Hall Holy Son, what kind of behavior is that?"
"He's just a pretty boy, is he really as charming as me?"
"He looks so frail; I could blow him away with a single breath."
Listening to Yu Xiaogang's rambling monologue, Flander's lips twitched slightly. Knowing Liu Erlong's true thoughts, he didn't say anything and could only nod silently in response to Yu Xiaogang.
Liu Erlong arrived at the qualifying round with the Spirit Hall team and stayed with the Spirit Hall's second team. She was often seen with the Spirit Hall's Holy Son named Ye Qifeng.
How could Flander and Yu Xiaogang not know?
They both deliberately chose to forget about it, avoiding paying special attention to it or bringing it up, so as to avoid embarrassment and an awkward situation.
