Chapter 80: Spouting selfish nonsense in the name of morality
"Why are you spouting so much nonsense?" Lin Ye interrupted his long-winded speech impatiently.
Yu Xiaogang's eyes blazed with anger, but he suppressed his rage and said, "I want to know how you absorbed a soul ring across time limits. This way, my theory can be further improved. Once I publish the improved theory, more people can benefit from it."
"So, after all this back and forth, this is what you really want to know!"
Lin Ye chuckled, "Don't you pride yourself on being a master of theory? Don't you think you're good at research? Go and do your own research!"
Yu Xiaogang said urgently, "One person's strength is ultimately limited. The Soul Master world is a whole. It is because of the countless individuals who have made successive contributions that the Soul Master profession has been able to reach where it is today."
If everyone hoards their knowledge, the Soul Master profession will never progress, senior.
For some reason, at this moment Lin Ye saw the shadow of those pedantic scholars in Yu Xiaogang.
Those guys keep talking about benevolence, righteousness, and morality, and how they care about the common people.
In reality, he was full of wicked and immoral thoughts.
Lin Ye scoffed, "You're quite the talker. If that's the case, why don't you reveal your Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan's Dragon Transformation Secret Technique to the public?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang was speechless for a moment. After stammering for a long time, he finally managed to say, "That belongs to the family. I can't be so selfish as to harm the family's interests."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Lin Ye slapped him hard across the face again.
"Pah! Just because you're allowed to hide your talents doesn't mean others have to make selfless contributions, right?"
"Using morality as an excuse to spout selfish nonsense, I have never seen such a shameless and deceitful person as you."
With that slap, Yu Xiaogang spun around in place again before falling to the ground with a thud.
The half of his face that was originally intact also became red and swollen.
"Teacher!" Tang San exclaimed, and went to help Yu Xiaogang up.
"Teacher, how are you?" Tang San asked with concern.
Yu Xiaogang felt dizzy and lightheaded. His teeth were loosened from the beating, and his face was swollen like a pig's head.
Tang San suddenly looked up, his eyes blazing with murderous intent, his heart roaring with rage: "How dare you insult my master! You deserve to die!"
However, he also knew that he did not yet have a way to absorb soul rings across time limits, so it was not easy to break off relations.
So, the resourceful Tang San came up with a solution.
He stared directly at Lin Ye and said confidently, "Do you dare to make a bet with me? If I win..."
Snapped!
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Ye slapped him to the ground as well.
"Pah, bet, bet, bet your ancestors! What right do you have to bet with me?"
Lin Ye was truly speechless. Why did everyone want to bet with him?
Oh, this guy's just a nobody, then it's fine.
That's how petty scoundrels are; when they can't do anything about others, they like to make bets, wagering their strengths against others' weaknesses.
Tang San looked up, his eyes filled with humiliation and resentment, as well as an undisguised killing intent.
Lin Ye roared in fury, "You bastard, how dare you glare at me? You're asking for death!"
Upon hearing the words "the path to death," Tang San froze. Wasn't that his own line?
While he was still in a daze, Lin Ye slapped him hard across the face, knocking him to the ground.
Then, he unleashed a barrage of punches and kicks at Tang San's sour face...
Tang San was truly a tough guy; he endured the pain without crying out.
He simply used both hands to tightly protect his head.
Suddenly, Lin Ye's kick went astray, accidentally hitting the scoundrel between the legs...
Tang San's eyes widened suddenly, and then his body bent over like a boiled shrimp.
"Aww... Ughhhhhh..."
Hearing the heart-wrenching screams, Yu Xiaogang trembled like a leaf.
However, a hint of schadenfreude flickered in his eyes.
Go ahead and fight. When His Majesty Haotian appears, you'll pay him back tenfold. At that time, you'll also have to obediently hand over the method for absorbing soul rings across time limits.
Lin Ye also did not forget Yu Xiaogang.
As the saying goes, it's not scarcity that's worrisome, but inequality.
If the apprentice gets beaten, the teacher can't just stand by and do nothing, right?
Then, Yu Xiaogang's screams echoed through the courtyard.
Compared to Tang San, this old guy has no backbone at all.
After a stick of incense had burned, the master and disciple, supporting each other, appeared on the street, limping.
At this moment, both master and apprentice had pig-like faces, their faces and clothes covered in footprints, and even the slightest movement caused excruciating pain all over their bodies.
Tang San turned back and glared hatefully at the Lin family's plaque, thinking to himself that a gentleman's revenge is never too late, and he would repay today's humiliation a hundredfold in the future.
Throughout the entire process, Tang Hao, whom Yu Xiaogang had been hoping for, never appeared. Yu Xiaogang thought that perhaps His Majesty Haotian was busy with other matters.
What he didn't know was that Tang Hao had been there all along, but he didn't dare to approach the Lin residence for fear of being discovered by the Snow Emperor.
The reason Tang Hao didn't stop Tang San was because he felt that Tang San didn't know that Tang San was his son.
The words are divided into two parts.
Lin Ye looked completely relaxed at that moment.
Today marks the initial achievement of "punching the little bastard and kicking the little jade anus".
I feel exceptionally happy.
Sure enough, it's fun to torment three people at once, and it's even more fun to torment them all the time.
It's worth mentioning that Tang San's soul power has already broken through level 28. Lin Ye is now looking forward to the little rascal breaking through level 30 and giving him a huge surprise.
At this moment, Xiao Wu, blushing, asked hesitantly, "What...what did you mean just now?"
Lin Ye glanced at her, his tone indifferent, "It's nothing, go away."
Xiao Wu immediately puffed out her cheeks in anger.
Lin Ye ignored her and walked into a woodshed on his own, warning the others not to come near.
The room contained some bottles and jars filled with special materials.
Saltpeter, sulfur, charcoal, sugar, etc...
In my previous life, these things would have been a serious crime. If an ordinary person put these things together, the police would be at their door for a chat in no time.
But this is the Land of the Douluo.
Lin Ye gathered these things to make some gunpowder in preparation for his future trip to the Killing City.
Lin Ye's requirements were not high; he only needed to make some explosive packages. The method was also not difficult: simply add gunpowder into a container.
But the gunpowder ratio is a problem, and he is currently researching the gunpowder ratio.
Upon entering the room, Lin Ye immediately activated his first soul skill, Void.
In a state of nothingness, one is immune to physical attacks.
Although Lin Ye hasn't been bombed yet, it's always good to be careful.
In the courtyard, Dugu Yan was curious about what Lin Ye was doing in the room, and specifically instructed that no one was allowed to approach.
Ye Lingling, standing to the side, was dressed as usual, in a long black dress and a black veil covering her face, revealing only a pair of calm, expressionless eyes.
Just then.
boom!
The tranquility was abruptly shattered as a deafening roar erupted from the house. In an instant, flames shot into the sky, and a powerful shockwave ripped through doors and windows, raging outwards with overwhelming force.
