Douluo Continent Episode 16 Recap
> Douluo Continent Recap
Ningrongrong knew from her father since she was a child that Support-type Soul Masters themselves were not strong in combat power; only by finding partners they could entrust their lives to could they maximize their abilities. As she walked this path, Ningrongrong found that Ou Si Ke and the others were people worth entrusting her life to. Hu Liena was quite disdainful of this. Tang San wanted to absorb the Human Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring.
Yu Xiaogang arrived in time to stop him, explaining that this Human Faced Demon Spider was already 2000 years old, and Tang San could not absorb its Soul Ring, or he would surely die. But Tang San was eager to save someone and couldn't care less. Just as he was about to absorb the Human Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring, the couple Chao Tianxiang and Meng Shu brought Du Gu Yan to stop him again.
Tang San recognized the cherry blossom mark on Du Gu Yan's head at a glance, recalling the task Ye Zhiqiu had given him. Dragon Duke Meng Shu wanted the Human Faced Demon Spider's corpse to extract the poison from it for his granddaughter, Du Gu Yan. If Tang San gave him the Human Faced Demon Spider, he promised to kill a Soul Beast for Tang San to enhance his Soul Ring.
Tang San considered for a long time, then asked him to help rescue Xiao Wu. If he did, Tang San would agree to give them the Human Faced Demon Spider's corpse. Meng Shu knew the power of the King of the Forest, the Titan Giant Ape, deeply, and concluded that Xiao Wu had a slim chance of survival, stating he was powerless to help.
Tang San disregarded Yu Xiaogang's dissuasion and risked his life to absorb the Human Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring, resulting in him being shocked unconscious on the spot by the powerful impact. Du Gu Yan quickly went to help him up. Chao Tianxiang clearly saw a greenish-yellow gas floating out from Tang San's body and entering Du Gu Yan's sleeve.
She was so scared and flustered, repeatedly confirming that Du Gu Yan felt nothing unusual, but still she was not at ease and wanted to wait until Tang San woke up to ask for clarification. Tang San was entangled by the Human Faced Demon Spider's silk and finally trapped in an airtight cocoon. Yu Xiaogang was extremely anxious, waiting for the result after Tang San broke out of the cocoon.
Chao Tianxiang believed Tang San was surely dead because no one could come out alive from a Demon Spider's cocoon shell. Suddenly, the cocoon was kicked open, and Tang San emerged alive, but he had four spider legs on his back; this was the Human Faced Demon Spider's Soul Bone. Lan De rushed over upon hearing the news and discovered Tang San was suffering a backlash.
If the Soul Bone was not removed in time, Tang San would become a bloodthirsty person. However, if the Soul Bone was removed, Tang San would never be able to advance in his life and would only remain at the three Soul Ring level. Yu Xiaogang decisively decided to remove the Soul Bone. Unexpectedly, Tang San suddenly regained consciousness, continuously shouting Xiao Wu's name.
It turned out that the Titan Giant Ape and Xiao Wu were of the same race, and he had come to protect Xiao Wu. After Xiao Wu replenished her energy from him, she asked the Titan Giant Ape to leave quickly to avoid being seen by others. However, the Titan Giant Ape was worried and had been quietly protecting her from behind. Xiao Wu saw Tang San suffering a backlash from afar and was very anxious.
Tang San kept shouting her name, and the Titan Giant Ape mistakenly thought Tang San was harming Xiao Wu, so it prepared to fight Tang San. Xiao Wu desperately stopped him. Yu Xiaogang and Lan De arrived shortly after and wanted to remove the Soul Bone from Tang San's body, but Xiao Wu, knowing that Tang San might never be able to advance after removing the spider legs, firmly disagreed with them doing so.
Du Gu Yan was Zhu Zhuqing's older sister. She had come this time specifically to bring Zhu Zhuqing home. When she saw Zhu Zhuqing with Dai Mubai, she started attacking Dai Mubai fiercely. Zhu Zhuqing quickly stopped them. Dai Mubai was knocked unconscious. Du Gu Yan wanted to take Zhu Zhuqing home and also placed a tracking bug on her body. Dai Mubai suddenly woke up and shielded Zhu Zhuqing. Ningrongrong saw this scene from behind a big tree.
Xiao Wu wanted to transfer Tang San's three Soul Rings onto herself first, and then remove the Soul Bone, so that it would not affect Tang San's advancement. The Titan Giant Ape disagreed with Xiao Wu taking the risk, but her mind was made up. She exerted all her strength to absorb the Soul Rings from Tang San, resulting in her chest being pierced by the spider legs. She still refused to give up.
Tang San finally regained consciousness, but Xiao Wu fainted on the ground due to exhaustion. The Titan Giant Ape was heartbroken, guarding Xiao Wu's side and howling. Ma Hongjun and Ou Si Ke rushed over upon hearing the news, mistakenly thinking the Titan Giant Ape wanted to kill Xiao Wu. Ou Si Ke took out sausages and kiwi to lure the Titan Giant Ape, but he was completely unmoved.
Xiao Wu, worried about her identity being revealed, quietly sent the Titan Giant Ape away. Chao Tianxiang, Du Gu Yan, and Meng Shu arrived shortly after and saw that Tang San's spider legs had deeply penetrated his bone, making it impossible to remove them. Meng Shu wanted to kill Tang San to eliminate future troubles. Ningrongrong rushed over to stop him and even invoked her father's status as a Sect Master. Meng Shu had no choice but to back down.
Tang San finally woke up. Seeing Xiao Wu injured and unconscious, he quickly took her back to the dormitory. Meng Shu, Chao Tianxiang, and Du Gu Yan came to find Tang San, discovering that he was safe and sound and had successfully advanced to the three Soul Ring level. Chao Tianxiang repeatedly pressed Tang San about the greenish-yellow dense smoke on his body, but he was ignorant.
After the grandfather, grandmother, and granddaughter left, Tang San suddenly remembered that the greenish-yellow dense smoke was the poison given to him by Ye Zhiqiu. He quickly went to chase after the Chao Tianxiang trio, but they were already gone. Tang San suspected that the bottle of medicine from Ye Zhiqiu was not poison, otherwise he would have been dead long ago.
However, Yu Xiaogang believed it was indeed poison, but because Tang San had absorbed the Human Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring, and the Human Faced Demon Spider also had potent venom, perhaps that was why he wasn't poisoned. Dai Mubai accused Hu Liena of leaving the Xing Dou Forest without regard for everyone's safety. Hu Liena claimed she left for her own safety.
Knowing she could no longer join their team, she cornered Dai Mubai and used her Mental Ability, forcing him to talk about his family matters. Zhu Zhuqing restrained Hu Liena from behind, and only then did Dai Mubai regain consciousness. Hu Liena repeatedly claimed she wanted to understand Dai Mubai. Dai Mubai warned her that he would kill her if there was a next time.
