Liam only responded with a smile to the exceptionally admiring gazes of the crowd, saying nothing.
As for the topic Bibi Dong was discussing with them—how to conquer and manage Sea God Island—Liam didn't interject.
He was a layman in such matters; although he had some advanced concepts, he had never been a major leader after all, so he didn't bother worrying about it.
[The sun is bright, and a gentle breeze is blowing.]
[A new day dances at the tip of the pen, recording a beautiful life and leaving behind the imprints of time.]
[My Auntie Ling Yuan arrived last night. After not seeing her for a few days, Auntie Ling Yuan has become even more beautiful and charming.]
[I woke up a bit late today. After having a meal, it was already afternoon. I thought this trip to Sea God Island would be boring, but now it seems quite lively.]
[Besides Bibi Dong, Spirit Kite Douluo, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ye Lingling, I also have Gu Yuena, Zi Ji, Bi Ji, and Ah Yin for company.]
[By the way, Gu Yuena mentioned yesterday that the Snow Empress and Ice Empress from the Far North would be coming, so it will be even more lively then.]
[Sigh, the theme for today's Diary is the Ice Empress—the Ice Jade Empress Scorpion?]
When Gu Yuena and the other three saw Liam starting to write in his Diary, they instantly perked up.
Let's first see if our other clansmen will also offer themselves as sacrifices to humans for nothing!
I hope there won't be another disgrace of the spirit beasts.
Spirit City.
Liu Erlong, Shui Binger, and the group were having a lively lunch at home. Seeing Liam's Diary start to update, they couldn't help but glance at Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu pouted and said,
"What are you looking at me for? I don't know anything about some Ice Jade Empress Scorpion. Sorry to disappoint you."
Everyone looked at each other and replied with a smile:
"It's fine."
"We're used to it."
Xiao Wu said with a speechless expression, "I feel offended!"
Huo Wu said with a chuckle,
"Then it must be that you're not used to it yet. You'll be fine once you get used to it."
Xiao Wu was completely stunned.
Is that even human language?
Outside a small town on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Ning Fengzhi and the Sword Douluo led Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan toward the Star Dou Great Forest.
When they saw the contents of Liam's Diary, their expressions became a bit strange. Two more Soul Beasts over a hundred-thousand-years old?
The competition for the rewards from the diary instance is truly getting more and more intense.
Sword Douluo spoke up and asked:
"Rongrong, what are you thinking about?"
"Nothing, Grandpa Sword," Ning Rongrong replied with a smile.
Sword Douluo nodded slightly and said,
"We might have to stay in the Star Dou Great Forest for a few more days. The age of several of your spirit rings can be increased, and Soul Beasts might not be easy to find."
"Mm!"
Ning Rongrong replied,
"It's fine. Staying a few more days is okay. It will take Brother Liam and the others quite a few days to return from Sea God Island."
"Liam?"
Sword Douluo said, sounding a bit annoyed,
"That little friend, I don't know what he's busy with. Could going to Sea God Island be more important than you hunting for spirit rings?"
"If he were here, we could easily hunt even a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast."
Ning Fengzhi looked at Sword Douluo and said,
"Uncle Guan, although Rongrong has her actual Spirit Power now, it's impossible for her to absorb a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring."
Sword Douluo was also speechless and said, "I was just saying."
"Little Dugu, were those spirit rings of yours that exceed the normal age limit hunted for you by your grandfather, or by that little friend Liam?"
Dugu Yan replied with a smile, "At that time, my situation was the same as Rongrong's. Liam helped me hunt them."
"However, if he were here, the speed of hunting spirit rings would definitely be faster."
"Why?"
Bone Douluo asked, somewhat puzzled,
"Even though he's stronger than us, this kind of thing still depends on some luck. If we can't find a suitable one, we can't speed it up even if we want to."
Ning Rongrong explained,
"That's because Brother Liam has Immortal Herbs, similar to the one that helped me with the Awakening of my Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, which can attract a large number of Soul Beasts."
The Sword Douluo was also speechless.
Why didn't you say so earlier?
We could have borrowed it!
Just as they were about to say something, they saw a figure walking over from the direction of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Looking closely, it was a person carrying a shoulder pole, with one person sitting in each of the baskets at the front and back.
"My God, Tang San?"
Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan were dumbfounded upon seeing this scene.
Ning Fengzhi and the other two also had strange expressions.
Huff huff huff~
True love is as vast as the grasslands~
Layers of wind and rain cannot block it~
And so it was.
Tang San also saw Ning Rongrong and the others. The moment he saw Ning Rongrong, heavy snow instantly began to fall in his mind.
Xiao Wu, my Xiao Wu.
Tang San dropped the shoulder pole and ran forward. Tang Hao and Yu Xiaogang fell to the ground, baring their teeth in pain.
"Ning Rongrong, you—how come you're here? Where's Xiao Wu?"
"Where did Xiao Wu go? Why isn't Xiao Wu with you?"
"Tch!"
Ning Rongrong said with a speechless expression:
"Where Xiao Wu is is none of your business. Who do you think you are to ask about Xiao Wu?"
"You—"
Tang San grit his teeth at Ning Rongrong's words and said, "I am Xiao Wu's brother, and she is my sister."
"Heh."
Ning Rongrong sneered, "I think she's more like your spirit ring."
"Tang San, don't be as shameless as your father, Tang Hao."
Tang Hao was furious. You little girl actually dare to insult me, the Clear Sky Douluo?
"Bull—"
Tang Hao was just about to say "bullshit" when he looked closely and saw it was Ning Fengzhi and the Sword Douluo.
Fortunately, he shut his mouth in time.
"Ning Rongrong!"
Tang San said with a face full of rage, "I'm warning you, Xiao Wu is my sister, definitely not some spirit ring. Don't you dare say such things."
"Did you... did you use these words to sow discord in Xiao Wu's ear, which is why she left me to follow you?"
"You're shameless!"
Ning Rongrong was instantly enraged. She raised her hand to slap Tang San but then remembered she hadn't absorbed a spirit ring for her Breakthrough yet, and Tang San still had Hidden Weapons.
"Sister Yanzi, slap him!"
"You got it!"
Dugu Yan quickly stepped forward and delivered a loud slap right across Tang San's face.
Tang San grit his teeth in anger.
Dugu Yan sneered:
"Still not convinced?"
"Call your waste father and waste teacher to come at me together. I'll slap all three of you wastes to death."
Tang Hao and the other two were truly about to explode with rage.
Dammit!
It's truly a case of a fallen tiger being bullied by dogs!
Even this little girl can insult them like this.
Ning Fengzhi and the other two watched with bewildered expressions, but they didn't say anything, choosing to watch from the sidelines.
Ning Rongrong stared at Tang San and said:
"I'm warning you, don't ever mention Xiao Wu again, or else we'll slap you every time we see you."
"On what grounds!"
Tang San said with an indignant look, "No matter how you humiliate me, Xiao Wu is my sister, she is my family."
Ning Rongrong said angrily:
"Tang San, can you stop being so disgusting?"
"Ask your father Tang Hao whether he treated Xiao Wu as a person or as a spirit ring."
"Tang Hao has always known that Xiao Wu is a Soul Beast, but he never told you. Moreover, he has always been keeping an eye on Xiao Wu, afraid that she would run away."
"Do you really think no one knows what you father and son are thinking?"
