Chapter 128: The Bizarre Incident with Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing
2024-07-17 Author: Xianyu Wangyue
Ning Rongrong understood that Aotian, Gu Yuena, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing were a single unit. Between Aotian's group and Tang San, Ning Rongrong chose the former.
This was because Aotian's group had four people who could take turns carrying her. This meant it was possible that only Tang San would have to eat a Sausage before they reached the Star Dou Great Forest.
Behind them, Tang San's heart sank. From the fact that Ning Rongrong hadn't given him a boost, he understood her intentions.
"I have to catch up to them quickly, or I'll be in trouble," Tang San thought to himself.
Tang San began to accelerate. Aotian's group ahead also started to speed up, and Zhao Wuji accelerated as well.
In the end, it was Oscar who couldn't keep up. Even after eating his own Big Sausage to recover, he couldn't match the pace of the group scrambling to stay ahead.
A deep sense of loss suddenly filled his heart. Just how much did these people loathe his Big Sausage? Their fearful expressions were as if they were fleeing for their lives from a terrifying Soul Beast.
Seeing that Oscar was about to be left behind, Zhao Wuji slowed down and said, "Everyone, stay behind me. No one is to pass me."
Thus, Tang San and Aotian's group ran parallel to each other behind Zhao Wuji.
"Teacher Zhao, if we all maintain the same speed, doesn't that mean all six of us will have to eat a Sausage?" Tang San asked.
Zhao Wuji replied, "Just maintain this speed. Someone will eventually get tired and slow down."
After Zhao Wuji slowed down, Oscar gradually caught up again.
Seeing that Xiao Wu's stamina was gradually giving out, Gu Yuena said, "Give Ning Rongrong to me."
"Sister Na'er, thank you so much," Xiao Wu said happily, shifting Ning Rongrong onto Gu Yuena's back.
With Gu Yuena's help, she had nothing to worry about anymore. As for that Big Sausage, Tang San could have it all to himself.
"Thank you," Ning Rongrong said to Gu Yuena.
In truth, she had always been a little jealous of Gu Yuena—jealous of her beauty, her Talent, and her outstanding charisma.
But now, the jealousy in her heart began to fade, bit by bit.
"You're welcome," Gu Yuena said. If Xiao Wu hadn't taken the initiative to help Ning Rongrong, she wouldn't have helped.
Next was the beginning of Tang San's tragedy.
As expected, he was the first to eat one of Oscar's Sausages. After forcing it down, his stamina was restored, and he instantly surpassed Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, whose speeds had dropped.
But before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he discovered that Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing seemed to have been injected with chicken blood. They were full of energy, with no hint of fatigue.
Xiao Wu knew very well that this was Aotian's doing behind the scenes. How could that man bear to let her eat such a thing?
When Oscar created his Sausage, not only was his incantation lewd, but even the look in his eyes was a bit strange. She would never eat something so disgusting.
A huge question welled up in Zhu Zhuqing's mind. Her Soul Power had been nearly depleted, and her stamina had almost reached its limit. Seeing Tang San overtake her and Xiao Wu, she had thought that either she or Xiao Wu would be next to eat a Sausage.
But to her surprise, her Soul Power inexplicably recovered. She could feel a mysterious power pouring into her body, converting into her Soul Power. At the same time, her weary spirit and body were restored, her condition no different from when they had first set out.
Zhu Zhuqing was utterly shocked that such a bizarre thing was happening to her.
She turned her head to glance at Xiao Wu and saw that Xiao Wu was equally energetic, showing no signs of fatigue. She even winked at her.
Zhu Zhuqing was stunned for a moment but reacted instantly. The same thing must have happened to Xiao Wu—she had inexplicably recovered.
"No, it's not inexplicable. Sister Xiao Wu must know what's going on," Zhu Zhuqing concluded in her heart.
Because Xiao Wu showed no signs of confusion and had even winked at her, Zhu Zhuqing was certain that Xiao Wu knew the truth of the matter.
Now, Zhu Zhuqing was even more shaken.
How was this even possible? To restore a person's Soul Power, stamina, and even spirit out of thin air... it seemed that not even a Titled Douluo could perform such a miraculous feat, right?
A Titled Douluo is still human, possessing a Martial Soul and Soul Skills. But even a Titled Douluo-level Healing Soul Master needs to use a Soul Skill to heal others!
Zhu Zhuqing looked around. Besides the people from Shrek, there was no one else nearby.
Moreover, she hadn't seen any Soul Skill land on her or Xiao Wu.
With Zhu Zhuqing's knowledge, she couldn't explain how such a thing could happen.
It was too magical, and too bizarre.
Tang San was completely dumbfounded. He had clearly seen that Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were exhausted just a moment ago. But why, after he ate a Sausage and recovered, did they both recover in an instant as well?
And it looked like their recovery was even better than his.
Oscar's Recovery Big Sausage couldn't restore Soul Power, only Tang San's stamina. Without the boost from Soul Power, Tang San's speed, relying on physical strength alone, naturally couldn't keep up with Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhao Wuji was constantly watching the students behind him. His mission was to make these young people overcome their psychological barriers and have each of them eat one of Oscar's Sausages.
He too had thought that Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were about to eat a Sausage, but then something happened that even he couldn't explain.
What shocked him even more was that several hours had passed, yet Aotian and Gu Yuena had maintained a constant speed. This was especially true for Gu Yuena, who was carrying Ning Rongrong; her face wasn't red, she wasn't out of breath, and there wasn't even a single drop of sweat on her forehead.
This was simply too bizarre. Was this something a Level 31 Soul Elder could achieve?
Zhao Wuji couldn't help but get a headache. He couldn't figure out why this group of youngsters was so freakishly abnormal, even if he racked his brain. He knew it would be difficult to make them all eat Oscar's Big Sausage using this running method.
Of everyone present, the most disappointed was none other than Oscar.
Everyone in front of him maintained a faster speed than him. His gaze remained fixed on Gu Yuena, who was carrying Ning Rongrong, hoping that her speed would drop.
But he waited and waited. Several hours passed, and Gu Yuena's speed didn't drop at all, dashing Oscar's wish to have the girl he liked eat his Sausage.
At noon, everyone stopped to rest for an hour.
In reality, it was Tang San and Oscar who were resting. Aotian's group, including Zhu Zhuqing, was in the same state as when they had set out, without a trace of fatigue.
Zhu Zhuqing had experienced that mysterious phenomenon several more times, and she grew more and more shocked and curious.
Even Ning Rongrong had noticed the abnormality with Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu.
The moment they stopped, Zhao Wuji immediately asked, "Xiao Wu, Zhuqing, what's going on with you two? Why do your stamina and Soul Power automatically recover after being heavily depleted?"
Zhao Wuji was simply too curious and too shocked. With the knowledge of a Level 76 Soul Saint, he couldn't explain the mysterious phenomenon happening to Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.
Hearing Zhao Wuji's question, everyone except Aotian and Gu Yuena turned their gazes to Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing. The abnormality involving Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing had occurred several times, and the others had long since noticed.
