Chapter 162: 180. Little Three, How Could You Give Away Your Master's Apprenticeship Gift
God Realm, Eternal Temple
Gang Zi's, Hao Zi's, and San Zi's thoughts naturally fell into Huo Yuhao's hands.
Because San Zi and Hao Zi were reborn and pseudo-reborn individuals, they didn't like Gang Zi but needed to use him as a protective umbrella. Therefore, Tang San only hastily took Yu Xiaogang as master and prepared for a future severance.
This made Gang Zi feel very insecure, so Gang Zi thought...
"Tsk tsk tsk," Huo Yuhao said. "Gang Zi, I have to say your idea is very good. That's right; you should leave a mark belonging to you on little Bie San, shouldn't you?"
Obviously, in the few days since coming to Notting City Soul Master Academy, Tang San had already voluntarily delivered himself into Xiao Wu's mouth.
In these few days, Xiao Wu always found excuses to trouble Tang San with small matters.
One day, Xiao Wu suddenly wanted to eat crystal carrots. She hinted to Tang San, and Tang San immediately ran all over Notting City to buy crystal carrots for Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu was very happy and said: "Thank you, Ah San gege; you're really a good person."
Tang San immediately felt as refreshed as drinking a bottle of Sprite on a hot day. He felt that his relationship with Xiao Wu was getting better and better.
Naturally, Tang San became Xiao Wu's meal ticket (of course, Tang San himself didn't think so).
This day, Yu Xiaogang found Tang San and said he would take Tang San to hunt for a soul ring.
When she learned that Tang San was going to hunt for a soul ring, Xiao Wu pulled Tang San's hand and said: "Ah San gege, Xiao Wu also wants to go soul hunting with you. Can you take Xiao Wu along?"
"Ah..." Tang San's brain short-circuited a bit. He remembered that Xiao Wu should be a soul beast; soul rings condensed on their own. Moreover, in the previous life, Xiao Wu didn't go soul hunting with him. Why would she make this request?
"Ah San gege~" Xiao Wu coquettishly requested.
"Hahaha, okay, okay; I'll take you along." Tang San hurriedly said. He thought that in this life, Xiao Wu going soul hunting with him showed that her relationship with him was even better than in the previous life.
However, when this matter reached Gang Zi's side—
"You're saying you're taking that Xiao Wu classmate along when you go soul hunting?" Yu Xiaogang said somewhat displeased.
"Yes, Xiao Wu also wants to go soul hunting with me." Tang San replied.
"Soul hunting is a dangerous matter. Teacher alone can barely protect you; if you bring her along too, how am I supposed to divide my energy to protect one more person?" Yu Xiaogang said.
Hehe~ Hearing Yu Xiaogang say this, Tang San couldn't help but sneer inwardly: You, a level 29 waste, have the face to say you're protecting me? It's more like I'm protecting you. If I didn't have memories from the previous life and my father wasn't the great Haotian Douluo, I, a twin martial soul innate full soul power genius, would have been pitted to death by you in the Man-Daced Snake's mouth long ago.
"I've already promised Xiao Wu to take her soul hunting with me. I, Tang San, keep my word; how can I go back on it? If you~ (sarcastic tone) aren't willing, then I'll find someone else to take me soul hunting." Tang San said indifferently.
"You—" Hearing Tang San say this, Yu Xiaogang had no choice and could only say: "Fine, if you want to bring Xiao Wu, then bring her."
"Alright, then it's settled." Tang San turned and left.
Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San with a cloudy expression: Little three, you're being disrespectful to your master. When talking to me, you won't even call me teacher once.
Before setting off for soul hunting, Tang San and Xiao Wu came before Yu Xiaogang. Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San and took out a soul guide device to hand to him.
"Little three, this is a soul guide device your master obtained with great difficulty from a ruin, as your apprenticeship gift."
Tang San naturally took the Twenty-Four Bridges Bright Moon Night. Although he despised Gang Zi, he couldn't deny that this soul guide device was useful to him.
However, before Tang San could even warm up to this soul guide device, a small hand snatched it away. Xiao Wu happily examined the Twenty-Four Bridges Bright Moon Night: "Wow, Three gege, this soul guide device is really pretty."
"Of course it is, Xiao Wu." Tang San said.
"Xiao Wu really likes this soul guide device. Ah San gege, could you... give it to Xiao Wu?" Xiao Wu said with a pleading face.
"Uh..." Tang San's face showed pain.
Seeing Tang San's pained expression, Xiao Wu unwillingly shoved the Twenty-Four Bridges Bright Moon Night back toward him: "Ah San gege, if you're unwilling, then forget it."
Tang San hurriedly pushed the Twenty-Four Bridges Bright Moon Night back to Xiao Wu and said: "Xiao Wu, if you like it, then this soul guide device is yours."
Xiao Wu's eyes lit up, and she said: "Really? Ah San gege, you're so good to me; you're really a good person."
With that, she excitedly hung the Twenty-Four Bridges Bright Moon Night on her waist and said to Tang San: "Ah San gege, does it look good?"
"It looks good, it looks good." Tang San said, his heart bleeding inwardly. He thought darkly: "Forget it; husband and wife are one. It's just a soul guide device. Xiao Wu's things are my things too!"
"Little three!" Yu Xiaogang said with an ugly expression: "You just gave away the apprenticeship gift your master gave you like that?"
"What's the problem?" Tang San said indifferently.
"Don't you know that the apprenticeship gift symbolizes the bond between master and disciple? You give away the apprenticeship gift your master gave you right in front of him to your friend; you're being disrespectful to your master." Yu Xiaogang accused: "Do you even have your teacher in your eyes anymore?"
Of course not. Tang San took him as master only because he needed Yu Xiaogang as a protective umbrella. But compared to how much he needed Gang Zi, Gang Zi needed him even more to prove he wasn't a waste. Accurately grasping this mentality of Gang Zi's, Tang San wasn't afraid of him at all.
He said in a completely disrespectful tone: "Oh, sorry, I didn't know. But I've already given that soul guide device to Xiao Wu. How can I take back something I've given away?" Tang San said. At the same time, he thought inwardly: Without this soul guide device, it's perfect; in the future, after dealing with Spirit Hall, I'll have one more reason to turn against Gang Zi.
Yu Xiaogang: "..."
The apprenticeship gift was optional for Tang San, but essential for Yu Xiaogang, because it symbolized the master-disciple bond. He couldn't let this precious disciple Tang San slip away.
Helplessly, Yu Xiaogang could only remove the soul guide ring he used himself from his finger and hand it to Tang San: "This is the apprenticeship gift your master is giving you; you can't casually give it away."
Tang San looked at the ring, thinking he did need a soul guide device to store hidden weapons, so he took the soul guide ring and put it on. This time, Xiao Wu didn't reach out to Tang San for it.
After giving the apprenticeship gift, Yu Xiaogang breathed a sigh of relief. The master and disciple, plus Xiao Wu, set off.
