Chapter 4: The Silver Dragon Appears
In the afternoon, when Hongshan College was over...
When Tang Wulin and Nan Fusheng walked out of Hongshan College together, Tang Wulin was unhappy. He had never been as depressed as what he encountered today.
He grew up in a very ordinary civilian family, but the family was harmonious, his parents had a good relationship and loved him very much. Even when he made mistakes, they would teach him earnestly.
But today in the academy, he felt what "difficulty" meant for the first time. Because his martial soul was the blue silver grass, his classmates excluded him except for his good friend Nan Fusheng, and even the teacher was not enthusiastic about him.
When guiding students to meditate in the afternoon, the teacher spent the least time with him. Why almost? Because Nan Fusheng was the same as him.
"Is my martial soul really that bad?" The unhappiness on Tang Wulin's face gradually turned into stubbornness. "Even if my martial soul is not good, I must become a great soul master. Nan Fusheng is right. There are no useless martial souls, only useless soul masters. Success is 99% hard work and 1% talent. My martial soul is not good enough, so I will work extra hard!"
Looking at Tang Wulin who had been PUA'ed by him for the entire afternoon, Nan Fusheng couldn't help but be speechless. This kid was too easy to fool. He just fed Tang Wulin some poisonous chicken soup from his previous life, but he didn't expect that he would really believe it.
Nothing is difficult in the world if one sets his mind to it. This saying does not work well in the Douluo Continent where blood and martial spirits determine everything.
However, there was one thing he did not lie to Tang Wulin, that is, he "will definitely become a powerful spirit master in the future." With the blood of the Golden Dragon King and the Son of the God King, and the grandparents of the Lord of the Planes and the Core of Life above him, and three chances of survival from his father the God King, as long as he followed the plan, he would be guaranteed to become a god.
"Fusheng, if you have nothing to do after school, would you like to come to my house for dinner? My mother's cooking is delicious."
On the other hand, Tang Wulin had slowly come out of his depression. He was cheerful by nature, and he had figured things out. With Nan Fusheng's encouragement, the day's depression was naturally resolved. But at this moment, his stomach rumbled, making Tang Wulin's face turn red. At the same time, he did not forget to invite Nan Fusheng beside him.
"Okay," Nan Fusheng on the side agreed without thinking, as this was one of his purposes.
Tang Wulin and Nan Fusheng were walking when a small figure on the side of the road suddenly caught his attention.
Although the sunshine in the afternoon is not as abundant as at noon, the weather today is very good, so the sunshine still brings some warmth to the body. What attracted Tang Wulin was the touch of silver under the sunlight.
There was a little girl squatting on the side of the road. She looked smaller than him, but she had short silver hair. The sun shone on her rare hair color, which naturally reflected light.
As if something was pulling them together, the little girl looked up at him. Her face was dirty, and her clothes were a little worn out. She looked like a little beggar. But besides her short silver hair, she also had a pair of unique eyes.
Her eyes were large, and their pupils were like two clear amethysts. Even from a distance, Tang Wulin seemed to be able to see his own reflection in her pupils. The long eyelashes curl upward naturally.
Their eyes met, and the little girl did not avoid his gaze, but there was just a hint of suspicion in her beautiful big eyes.
"Here comes the Silver Dragon King," Nan Fusheng on the side said secretly.
This was the first time that Nan Fusheng had seen the famous Silver Dragon King. How should he be described? He was indeed very handsome. Even though he looked like a child now, it was not difficult to see that he would become a stunning beauty in the future.
Add to that the white hair, it’s no wonder that so many fan fictions like to treat her as the heroine.
"Little girl, where are your parents?" At this moment, several ruffian young men were also attracted by the silver hair and came up to the little girl.
The little girl didn't look at them and lowered her head again.
Several young men looked at each other, and one of them said, "This silver hair is really rare! Maybe she is a foreigner from the other two continents. I guess the underground black market will like her very much. What's more, her eyes are purple." The other young men immediately revealed greed in their eyes and nodded to each other.
The young man who spoke earlier squatted down and said, "Hey, little sister. Where are your family members?"
The little girl lowered her head and shook her head but said nothing.
The young man smiled and said, "Are you hungry? I'll take you to eat something delicious, how about that?"
The little girl shook her head again, this time more vigorously.
The young man winked at his companions, stretched out his hand, grabbed the little girl's arm and pulled her up from the ground, while the others stood around to block the view from outside.
Amidst the little girl's exclamations, the young man had already carried him on his shoulders.
"What are you doing?" At this moment, a childish shout rang out, scaring several young men.
When they looked back, they couldn't help revealing expressions of shame and anger. The ones who stood up to defend the injustice were actually two little guys. One was a little boy who was not even as tall as their waists but very handsome, and the other was a little boy who had dark circles under his eyes and looked thin.
A young man at the back had a sinister look in his eyes and kicked Tang Wulin, "You little brat, you dare to meddle in other people's business."
Nan Fusheng, who was standing by, saw this and immediately pulled Tang Wulin back, causing the young man to miss his kick.
On the other side, the young man carrying the little girl had a fierce look on his face. The commotion here had attracted the attention of some passers-by, after all, this was on the street.
With a flick of his wrist, a dagger flashing with cold light was already in his palm, and he gestured to Tang Wulin, "Get out of here if you don't want to die!"
Upon seeing this, Nan Fusheng immediately shouted, "We two are soul masters, registered with the federal government and the Soul Pagoda. If you hurt us, be careful that you get caught and taken to the police station."
"Bad luck!" Perhaps frightened by Nan Fusheng's words, the leading young man snorted angrily with a look of unwillingness, put down the little girl on his shoulders, and ran away quickly with a few companions in shame.
The little girl staggered and fell to the ground. Tang Wulin hurried over and squatted beside her, "Don't be afraid, I am a man and I will protect you!"
The little girl looked up at him. As they got closer, her big purple eyes looked even more beautiful, and there seemed to be a layer of mist on her pupils.
“Don’t cry, don’t cry. I’ve chased the bad guys away. My name is Tang Wulin, and that’s Nan Fusheng over there. What’s your name?”
The little girl was stunned for a moment, and finally spoke for the first time, "My name is Na'er."
