    • but i did´t get the last part.. did our beloved xiao wu transform from rabbit form into humanoid form thanks to that dragon thingy.. but still is lifeless, sounds meaningless tho, if she´s “soulless” than won’t she just become some kind of problem or is it possible to put “humans” in his baggy thingy?

      Like

      • As the text describes: “Xiao Wu’s gaze was still vacant and lifeless”. So she is still a rabbit but now in human form.

      • I don’t think it’s pointless, it’s her body just without her soul, so once Tang San gets all the requirements to revive Xiao Wu he can return her soul to the human body of Xiao Wu not her less than hundred thousand year rabbit form. That’s my assumption anyway.

  1. Awesome sauce! Thanks for the chapter! I hope the exams went well?
    Alas for little San, Only her body is back, her soul is still in the ring. He’ll need the other items as well before body and soul can be reunited again. But we are getting closer and closer to that moment.
    God dammit man, this series is awesome.

  2. Wait you cant put a human into the Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse or is it ok since Xiao Wu is like a beast in the infant stage so she is still claified as a non-human? Or would she be too big now to fit in it? So what now will he put her into a wheel chair and walk around with her? Tang-san wont leave her alone no matter what and I don’t think that she will be able to turn back since this transformacion should show that her strength has recovered to the point at which she would choose to be a human or stay as an beast.

    Seriously I can’t help but picture Tang San walking around town with Xiao Wu holding anto his hand but looking like someone with a mental deficiency.

    • Actually, Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse and Twenty Four Moonlight Bridge are different tools. Wishful can hold anything which is still alive while Moonlight Bridge is for all non-organic items. You may put anything in Moonlight Bridge even living things, but they will die when you put them in it. Wishful allows living things to stay alive for a while. Based on the size how I researched, I think Wishful has similar size to Twenty Four (one cubic meter) but only have one storage while Twenty Four obviously has twenty-four storages. One cubic meter is more than enough to hold a whole adult person in crouched condition but it is kind of suffocating due to limited space. I think that is why Tang San discovered her body in Wishful once he entered his hand into it. Hope it helps.

      • All of your questions about Xiao Wu’s mental and physical conditions would be answered in the next chapter… So be patient for one more week or less.

        Xiao Wu’s current situation may look terrible but it is same as reality. Many people have this mental condition but there are still some people taking care of them.

      • ok so my prediction going forward, tang san now lops off his left arm returning the spirit bone as well as the spirit ring back to xiao wu and then he grows his entire arm back with the spirit bone ability of his mother’s spirit bone.

        Like

        • Given the spirit bone ability of his mother is strong enough to do that. Her human body is capable of taking a spirit bone, so like xiao wu even gets a spirit bone out of the whole thing, tang san temporarily loses his 6th spirit ring like tang hao did when he removed his spirit bones.

          Like

          • Tat or he will find another spirit bone that may replace his arm. Either way we will have to wait since he can only separete from his spirit bones when he gets to the Title duolo stage.

    • Visiting Er Ming would still be pointless I think… he has to be 9th rank to transfer his spirit. Granted that was to make her revive in human form but either way he still needs the ginger I believe.

  3. it would be so nice if he could go back to er ming and da ming, and they told him : “well, you have the ingredients you need, and since her body has recovered this much you don’t need to become a title doulou, we can resurrect her right now”.

  4. Thanks for the chapter.
    I think Xiao Wu’s resurrection is the best way to convince the Old Goat to help Tang San.
    But she’ll decrease Tang San’s liberty. I think this resurrection came too fastly.

  5. Thanks for the awesome present !!!

    I really love this serie. I love how Xiao Wu soul could act on her own and that Tang San had to suppress her from appearing on her own!

    I just wonder how he will move her around now. And I wish I could love a woman the same way Tang San and Xiao Wu love each other. I feel like only in fantasy such things happen though. After being hurt so much, its hard to love with such passion again.

    Yeah, even though I dont like Tang Sana nd Xiao Wu, I like

    In any case, now that this arc is almost over, I Wonder what,s gonna happen next. They all go back to Heaven Dou city, build secret weapons… and then the war begin? Spirit Hall on one side and the two Empires on the other?

    Humm, I have a feeling that the Breaking Clan médecines will be needed to help find what and who is poisonning the king of Heaven Dou Empire… Maybe they will perfect Tang San knowledge of poison and herbalism, since he is not from this world? Thought Dugo Bu (Poison Douluo) probably teached him… OH! Maybe THEY will find the cause and who is behind this (the Breaking clan) ?

    We can only speculate though…But nothing happen for no reason in this novel. Im sure at least they will be able to prove the Emperor son guilty of poisoning his father. Because I feel like it would be anticlimatic if the Emperor died. It would be a nice surprise though that they have to destroy Heaven Dou Royalty completly but I doubt it will happen.

  6. Thank you very much! Awesome chapter!
    Seriously though, that Tang San and his naming sense, think he broke out a new record with a wide margin, Wildfire Cannot Destroy the Grass, It Grows Again With the Spring Wind, it’s a mouthful xD. How long is it in chinese when you pronounce it?

    • Don’t you remembervthat Tang San’s mother told the ability to Tang Hao and then he told Tang San? It was when Tang Hao was telling Tang San when he became a Title Douluo.

      Like

      • O.o No I do not remember any of the sort, *goes back to check*, you’re not wrong but you’re also not right, the skill in question is different and the name is also not the same, that skill was called Wildfire Blows Without End, Spring Wind Blows Rebirth, and the skill is related to his mothers ability to come back to life.

        Even in this very chapter Tang San says “That was a spirit bone ability, I call it:” as in he’s the one who named it. Earlier there was also a time when Tang San was wondering why the spirit bone from Xiao Wu has two skill while his mother’s has one, that means his father didn’t tell him about it.
        So basically, this is Tang San naming this skill in an amazingly long way, but it seems to be something that runs in the family. xD

  10. Hopefully he can put her in his Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse, not because it would be inconvenient bringing (think about it, Tang San would probably bring her everywhere with him even if it’s inconvenient), but because, what’s he going to do with her clothes. he’d look like a perv if he went into a store and randomly bought a lot of woman clothes and woman underwear, and he would also look like a perv if while he got her clothes someone walked into his room and saw her. in addition he can’t just call for Ning Rongrong to come over (because he has to go meet Yang Wudi and, again, what happens if someone walks in and see’s her)

    • It’s possibly he already has some clothes for her. He’s always carried everything including the kitchen sink inside his spirit tool. Her old clothes wouldn’t fit anymore but he might have bought new ones as a gift. Or he can just give her some of his. Or she’ll turn back into a rabbit in 2 seconds. That possibility is still there too.

  11. Seriously! Who in their right mind gives an ability a twelve word long name!? Why not just go with regeneration and be done with it….

    Many thanks for the chapter though (the blame for the ability name goes to the original author)!

    • It’s a translation problem. I think it sounds good in Chinese or the characters for that ability is very short (1-2 characters) but when translated, it becomes awkward. Just bear with it, or better yet, ask Bagelson to change the name to something better in english with a reference to the original name translation in the notes.

  14. Okay, I see where this is going. He’s going to revive her without having to give up his spirit, and early too. That ninth grade Ginseng King he’s supposed to catch had the purpose of reconstructing her human form, but since that’s already done he won’t need it anymore. He’s already got the internal dan of an ancient spirit beast, and Er Ming already said he can get the Sacred Soul Grass whenever. All he needs is a shortcut to skip Title Duolou requirement and she can come back immediately.

  15. I have a feeling that Xiao Wu’s body will remain lifeless BUT when Tang San brings out the spirit rings, Xiao Wu’s soul can inhabit her body for short spurts. Her soul would still need to return to Tang San’s ring to recover.

    It will be interesting to see Tang San drop down to 1 spirit and actually cultivate the hammer. ( But we all know that he’s going to find some loophole to retain both spirits )

      • Glad your of the same opinion.

        And if people Be critical about Owl’s Translation skills tell them to look into some Shakespeare most of the things people Complained about were Older forms of English. And if any one plans to argue, that it does not matter, I will tell you English as we know it is the most rapidly changing languages in the entirety of human history. English has gained about 50 new words and grammatical phrasing every year, that being said most other languages barely gain 10 every year and Owl’s native language is not English.

  20. Knowing Tang San he will definitely not just leave Xiao Wu in his room. The reason i am saying this is because this means he will definitely bring Xiao Wu with him to see Yang Wudi (obviously he’ll give her clothes to wear first) “Mwa, Ha, Ha.” i can’t wait to see Yang Wudi’s reaction when he notices Xiao Wu looks just like the guy who just beat the sh*t out of him.

  23. Wildfire Cannot Destroy the Grass, It Grows Again With the Spring Wind. Wow, seriously what was Tang San thinking when he named it that, that’s 12 words (14 if you split wildfire into 2 words and cannot into 2 words).

    • Actually it is the Chinese Phrasing and the way they name things, they do not use names from other languages to often or without knowing what the word means. For example Tang San means Third Son, and it is seen thought all Chinese and most non-English names, another example is from ISSTH Zhou Dekun his name means Master Weeks and Fang Mu means Fang Wood or wooden fang.
