Douluo: Soul Devouring Spider King

Chapter 26: Fame

"What!? A thousand-year-old human-faced demon spider!?"

At the entrance of the Soul Hunting Forest, the several Spirit Hall guards guarding the gate looked extremely solemn, and in front of them stood the group leader who was looking for excuses after the bombing... Oh no, it was the level 41 Soul Sect strongman who was talking anxiously!

At this moment, he looked extremely embarrassed, as if he had just gone through a difficult battle. His expression was extremely painful and he blamed himself: "My students... even though I already have the strength of level 41, I fought a battle that would have resulted in both sides suffering losses, but I still couldn't save them. I had to watch helplessly as they all died in the spider's mouth!"

"me……"

"The human-faced demon spider that has cultivated for thousands of years can no longer be measured by the level of a soul master. Director, please don't blame yourself too much."

"This is a serious matter. We must inform the Spirit Hall's steward and the city lord immediately!"

The Spirit Hall guards made a prompt decision: "Close the gate! From now on, no one can be allowed to enter the Soul Hunting Forest!"

The bounty hunters and mercenaries around were also extremely surprised, but no one objected. The Millennium Little Gou Ba was definitely not joking.

Just as the guards were shaking the handles and preparing to close the door, several voices came from inside: "Wait a minute!"

Huh? Is there anyone else inside?

The voice seems like that of a little kid?

The captain of the guard was stunned, and the dean's hands were shaking violently: "Is this... Tang San's voice?"

They are still alive! ?

Oops!

As expected, Tang San and his companions hurriedly walked in from the gate, and at first sight they saw the dean of studies with a strange expression in front of the door!

Tang San snorted in his heart, but still took the lead to step forward and bowed politely, "Director."

"How did you..." The Dean looked at his students in astonishment. Did they really make it out alive? How could it be possible?!

Wang Wei and the others looked at each other with different expressions. Xiao Wu clenched her fists and looked like she was about to take action, but was stopped by Xiao Dong: "The director is a level 41 soul master. We don't have the ability to intervene in this matter."

That’s right, a level 41 Soul Master is an absolute powerhouse compared to the few people who are currently only level 20. Even if he has done something shameful, it is not something that weaklings like them can blame at will.

Tang San looked at Xiao Dong in surprise. This worldly wisdom...

Xiaodong's words not only reminded Wang Wei and others, but also the dean. He coughed and said, "How did you survive? Uh... I mean, didn't the human-faced demon spider attack you?"

Xiao Wu snorted heavily without disguising herself, and directly stated the situation at that time and her own guesses.

What? The soul beast has a crush on Xiaodong? The thousand-year-old human-faced demon spider was even scared away by Xiaodong's words?

How can this be! ?

The dean of studies had a look of disbelief on his face. From his life experience, he absolutely did not believe it. However, from the facts before them, there was no way that Tang San and the others could survive the hands of the Millennium Little Gou Ba!

and so……

"Are you telling the truth?" The dean's lips trembled a little. This was nonsense!

"Absolutely true." Tang San affirmed, and as if to increase the persuasiveness, he added: "Perhaps Xiaodong has a way to control soul beasts."

Controlling soul beasts? The dean frowned, but Xiaodong chuckled in his heart: "This Tang San really guessed it this way, and he even said it out loud."

"Director, now that your students are safe, please leave here first." The captain of the guard not far away didn't know whether he heard those words or not, and he didn't care about the things between the teachers and students of Notting College. He wanted to seal the gate immediately and then report the matter to his superiors.

"We'll leave now." The Dean nodded, and then led a few people away, saying with the authority of a dean and a strong man: "What happened today... well, no one of you is allowed to tell anyone! Tell everyone that I led you to escape."

"Don't tell anyone? Is that possible?" Xiaodong said in his heart, "With so many guards, mercenaries, and bounty hunters at the door just now, plus Tang San's words, I'm afraid the news will spread throughout Nottingham within a day!"

'A thousand-year-old human-faced demon spider appeared in the Soul Hunting Forest', 'Saint Mother Xiaodong can control soul beasts', 'The dean who led the group abandoned the students and ran away alone', any one of them could cause a sensation in the not-so-small Notting City!

And these three things came together!

That’s right, become famous!

After Xiaodong used her mental power to sense the Millennium Little Gou Ba, she began to plan this vicious scheme. She had originally planned to use [Soul Control] to save the situation and thus demonstrate her saintly abilities, but she did not expect that the captain would do such a shameful thing, and the clever Tang San was even more powerful, guessing that Xiaodong could control soul beasts without even using [Soul Control].

Although this ability has not been confirmed, rumors are always half true and half false, and they can be as outrageous as possible!

All these vicious plots were prepared by Xiaodong, and they could not be stopped by a mere Soul Sect expert. He was still unaware of this and tried to save his reputation by using the authority of the Dean of Studies, which he had completely lost.

No one answered, but they all nodded silently. The dean breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and then looked at Xiaodong, wanting to ask him something in detail, but Xiaodong acted like he was scary and he didn't believe him, and moved closer to Xiaowu. Xiaowu immediately understood and looked at him warily.

They returned to the academy in silence. Just as Xiaodong had expected, the news first spread in the academy and soon spread to Notting City!

In just a few hours, most of the population of Notting City had already known about it. After the city lord and the people from the Spirit Hall confirmed the news, they acted quickly and gathered some soul masters. The level 63 Soul Emperor city lord was ready to lead a team to deal with the thousand-year-old Xiao Gou Ba himself.

night.

The former Dean of Studies sat at the table drinking alone, thinking back to what the Dean had said to him:

"In the world of soul masters, it is correct to abandon your companions when in danger, but this time you didn't abandon your companions, you abandoned your students!"

"Three innate full soul powers and three noble geniuses!"

"Fortunately, no one has pursued this matter yet, but your position is no longer possible, and it is impossible for you to become a teacher. However, in view of your years of hard work, I will allow you to stay in the academy for now."

"So now I have become a idler in the academy like Master Waste? Damn it~!" The former dean smashed the wine bottle with one hand, and at this moment, there was a knock on the door.

the other side.

In the dormitory, Xiaodong, who saw that the system task was not completed, sipped his tea and pursed his lips: "Sure enough, the most popular topic among the public is the Millennium Little Gou Ba. The fact that it can control soul beasts has been overshadowed by its brilliance, and I'm afraid not many people believe it."

“So this incident can only be a beginning, allowing my name to begin to spread in Nottingham.”

In other words, this incident was not enough to make her name as a saint resound throughout Nottingham, but fortunately, the time was long enough and there were still many opportunities to plan.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Xiaodong opened the door and saw a noble girl from the same dormitory standing at the door. She sent a message: "Teacher Xiao is waiting for you at the gate of the courtyard."

Teacher Xiao?

Like the unlucky guy Awei before, he is a guy who has no role in the original novel. However, because of Xiaodong's scoundrel nature, he also followed the team leader to gain experience several times. He is a mature woman in her thirties or forties, a level 29 great soul master, and I still have some impression of him.

"I see."
