Douluo Continent Episode 17 Recap
> Douluo Continent Recap
Ye Zhiqiu found that Tang San had successfully placed the bottle of poison on Du Gu Yan, but unexpectedly Tang San was not poisoned to death. The reason Bu Le asked Tang San to find Ye Zhiqiu was to ensure he never returned. Ye Zhiqiu felt Tang San had great potential and invited him to join their organization. Tang San was not interested. Ye Zhiqiu clarified that their leader was Tang Hao, a Titled Douluo with nine Soul Rings.
Tang San heard Ye Zhiqiu mention that his father was a Douluo and repeatedly confirmed that Tang Hao's Martial Soul was the Hao Tian Hammer. Tang San never expected that the mastermind behind creating mutated Martial Souls and controlling Yehuo Village was his own father. He was eager to find his father and ask for clarification.
Ye Zhiqiu told him to participate in the fighting arena competition in Xisi City and challenge the Fierce God Team to win; only then would he be qualified to find Ye Zhiqiu at Canghui School in Tiandou City. Tang San wanted to participate in the competition, but Ye Zhiqiu reminded him that his power was insufficient. Tang San recalled what his father said before leaving: as long as he became powerful enough, his father would appear before him.
While Tang San was pondering, he discovered that Ye Zhiqiu had disappeared. He hurried back and fed Xiao Wu the antidote given by Ye Zhiqiu. The poison in Xiao Wu was successfully removed, but she remained unconscious. Yu Xiaogang guessed that because the Soul Rings in Tang San's body: Mandragora Snake, Haunted Vine, and Human Faced Demon Spider, all had potent toxins, and these toxins had fused within his body, Tang San should be immune to all poisons.
Yu Xiaogang told him to use the Blue Silver Plant to directly touch Xiao Wu's wound, which would thoroughly remove the toxins from Xiao Wu's body. Tang San disregarded the difference between genders and aimed the Blue Silver Plant at Xiao Wu's chest wound, successfully absorbing the residual toxins from her body. Tang San went to ask Yu Xiaogang about his father's situation.
Yu Xiaogang still couldn't say much, only admitting that his father was Hao Tian Douluo, and that those things were definitely not done by him; there must be a hidden reason. Tang San wanted to find out the truth, otherwise, he couldn't face Ma Hongjun. Yu Xiaogang patiently tried to persuade him, but Tang San was still unable to let it go. Xiao Wu's body recovered completely. Lan De and Yu Xiaogang led the students back.
Tang San proactively apologized to Ma Hongjun, admitting that his father was the mastermind behind the Yehuo Village incident. Ma Hongjun trusted his character and, furthermore, they didn't know if what Ye Zhiqiu said was true or false. Instead, he advised Tang San not to take it to heart. Tang San was deeply moved and vowed to do everything he could to stop his father from creating mutated Martial Souls.
Lan De and Yu Xiaogang successfully brought the students back to the school. Lan De advised Yu Xiaogang not to reveal the news of Su Yuntao's death and worried that he might leave the school. Yu Xiaogang only cared about his students and promised to continue staying at Shi Lan Ke School.
That night, Dai Mubai boiled a pot of scalding hot water, hoping to force the bug out of Zhu Zhuqing's body and kill it, so that Zhu Zhuqing would be free. Zhu Zhuqing sat in the bathhouse, and the small bug, unable to withstand the heat, crawled out of her hair. Just as Dai Mubai was about to grab it, the bug quickly entered his body.
Dai Mubai had no choice but to sit in the scalding hot water to force the bug out. Zhu Zhuqing stepped on the bug and killed it. Ma Hongjun came to find Tang San to go to the fighting arena together to settle the score with Bu Le. Tang San bound Bu Le with the Blue Silver Plant. Bu Le tried to argue in every way, claiming repeatedly that everything was done by the headquarters.
Ma Hongjun summoned his Martial Soul and burned Bu Le, making him scream in agony. Ma Hongjun didn't want to kill recklessly and stopped in time, allowing Bu Le to escape by chance. Tang San saw that Ma Hongjun was suppressing his grief and anger and spared Bu Le's life, which made him see Ma Hongjun in a new light. Bu Le went alone to a tavern to drown his sorrows with alcohol.
Ye Zhiqiu suddenly came to confront him, complaining that he had exposed their identity, making it known to everyone now. Ye Zhiqiu killed Bu Le on the spot to silence him. Yu Xiaogang held enhanced training classes for the students. Dai Mubai, contrary to his usual behavior, came to class. Yu Xiaogang assigned the first training task, which was to eat a large bowl of meat.
Xiao Wu didn't eat meat, and Ningrongrong, who was dieting, didn't want to eat and even wanted to complain to Lan De. Zhu Zhuqing clearly stated that the soup contained a Star Luo Royal Secret Recipe, which was very helpful for enhancing Martial Soul and power. Yu Xiaogang announced that they would eat this every morning from now on.
Xiao Wu took a bite of the meat and immediately started throwing up non-stop, but she forced herself to finish it in order to become stronger. Yu Xiaogang took the students to the forest for training. Tang San prepared carrots for her, and Xiao Wu was ecstatic. Ou Si Ke hurried over upon hearing the news to join in the fun and also wanted to eat carrots.
Xiao Wu loved carrots so much that she couldn't help but reveal her three Soul Rings. Tang San was stunned speechless. Xiao Wu only had one Soul Ring; it was impossible for her to gain three Soul Rings overnight. Xiao Wu desperately tried to find excuses to cover it up.
