Douluo Dalu: Wulin’s Legend - Chapter 74 Tasty Drink?
Xue Mei suddenly blushed as she hesitantly said, “M-master, we are out in the open, perhaps we shouldn’t do it here?”
I nodded my head, “I saw a cave nearby, let’s go there. I can use my Illusion Ice Transformation to hide the entrance of the cave.”
Ignoring Xue Mei’s embarrassment, I dragged the girls to the cave and set up an Illusion to blend the cave entrance with the surroundings.
I pull the Bat Fang External Spirit Bone and place it into Xue Mei’s hand, “Here, quickly absorb this. It should help with your condition.”
Xue Mei’s eyes widened in shock, “Huh?”
I smirked at her, “I thought your body should be strong enough to absorb this Spirit Bone, what were you thinking of?”
Little Yue, Feng Feng and Little Jing giggled off to the side, causing Xue Mei to snap out of her stunned state.
Her face flushed a deep red, “I-I thought, you were going to do t-that to me… Wait! Spirit Bone?”
“Right, External Spirit Bone to be exact. I got it a while ago from a bat type Spirit Beast, they are known for sucking blood, so maybe absorbing the Spirit Bone will allow you to do the same.”
“Master, this is too much! I don’t deserve an External Spirit Bone, you should give it to Sister Yue or Sister Feng Feng.” Xue Mei quickly shook her head and tried to place the fangs in my hands.
However, I stopped her as I closed her hands with the Bat Fangs inside, “These suit you the best, I will find External Spirit Bones for the other girls as well. Don’t worry about it and just absorb it.”
Xue Mei hesitantly looked towards Little Yue and Feng Feng who both nodded gently, “We already have a skull Spirit Bone anyway, those Bat Fangs don’t suit us. I would rather bird wings instead.”
Xue Mei gratefully bowed to the three of us, “Thank you so much! I will not waste this opportunity.”
She sat cross-legged on the ground and began the absorption process.
I moved to the side and sat in between Little Yue and Feng Feng, while Little Jing took her usual spot in my lap.

“Big Brother, how old is the Spirit Bone?” Little Yue leaned on my shoulder as she asked.
I rest my head on hers, “It is around 10,000 years old. With Xue Mei’s Spirit Rank and the benefits from the Immortal Herb, she should be able to absorb it.”
After Absorbing her fourth Spirit Ring, Xue Mei’s Spirit Rank instantly grew to the forty-third level.
In addition to the foundation strengthening Immortal Herb, she should be able to absorb the Spirit Bone with a bit of pain.
As I was thinking such, Xue Mei’s face paled a bit as sweat started to run down her face. She quietly endured the pain from the Bat Fangs External Spirit Bone.
I kept a close eye on Xue Mei, if she showed any signs of being unable to finish absorbing the Bat Fangs, I will have to forcefully extract it and absorb it myself.
However, she has not let out a sound yet, so she should be able to endure for a while longer.
Seconds became minutes, and minutes became hours… We no longer talked as the four of us silently watched over Xue Mei.
The External Spirit Bone has already seeped into her body, all she needs to do now is integrate it and make it her own.
There were a couple times when Xue Mei let out a small cry, causing my heart to lurch out of my chest, however she quickly muffled herself and endured.
Suddenly, her body stopped trembling. I instantly got up and moved to her side, she slowly opened her eyes and smiled at me before passing out.
Her body relaxed and began to fall, but not before I caught her.
I stroked her pale face and kissed her forehead, “Good job. You’ve done well.”
I turned to the girls behind me, “Let’s wait for Xue Mei to wake up, then we will go to the rendezvous and meet with the others.”

A couple hours later, Xue Mei slowly woke up from her slumber. I sat at the side of the bed and gently pet her head to help her awaken.
Xue Mei opened her eyes and saw me, she smiled brightly and quickly sat up, “Master, I was successful in absorbing the External Spirit Bone!”
Nodding my head, I say, “Good, show me.”
Xue Mei nodded her head before opening her mouth. I could see her canines elongate like bat fangs, the tips looked as sharp as needles and strong enough to pierce metal.
“What abilities did you get?” I ask expectantly.
“By drinking blood, I can use it to regenerate my own blood, or convert it into Spirit Power. Also, if I drink directly from a living being, I can drain their Spirit Power in addition to their blood.” Xue Mei explained.
“You are an Auxiliary System Spirit Master, so you won’t be getting close to any living beings to drain their power. However, using blood to regenerate your own will be able to counter your body condition.”
Xue Mei nodded her head deeply, her eyes were shining brightly. With this ability, she will be able to counteract the problem that has plagued her and many other Spirit Masters from her clan.
“Alright, give it a go. Come and drink some blood from me.” I say as I pull the collar of my shirt down, exposing my neck and shoulder.
However, Xue Mei did not lean in and instead her cheeks flushed a deep red.
This caused me to become confused, ‘Did I say something embarrassing?’
“What’s wrong? Hurry and take a bite. Since you love the Blood Ginsengs so much, my blood must not be that disgusting.” I urge her some more.
Xue Mei’s eyes widened in astonishment, “What! What do you mean about the Blood Ginsengs!?”
“All the Blood Ginseng you ate are produced solely from my own blood. Because of my regeneration capabilities, I can sustain the growth of some Blood Ginsengs.”
“I-I’ve been drinking your blood, all this time… Kyaa!”
Xue Mei’s face got redder the more she thought about it.
In the end, she covered her face with her hands and shook her body from side to side as she let out a girly squeal.
Although her actions were extremely cute and distracted me for a bit, I was still confused on why she was doing such a thing.
“Master… Part of my Clan traditions… when getting married, the woman will drink a cup of blood from her husband. It is a male tradition, they give us their blood, while we also give them our blood.”
Xue Mei had her eyes poking out from the gaps between her fingers as she quietly explained.
“Eh?” I blanked out a little. This is also a tradition of her clan?
But, I wasn’t stunned for long and nodded my head, “So be it, you are mine to begin with, some ceremonies binding us together isn’t a problem.”
Xue Mei took her hands away from her face, her eyes showed a hint of desire and happiness, “You really mean it?”
“Of course, I don’t mind taking part in your Clan’s traditions if it is important to you. Now, let’s test out your Spirit Bone’s ability.” I say as I pull her hand to me.
Xue Mei nodded her head shyly and elongated her fangs. Bringing her face to my neck, she breathed heavily on my neck in hesitation.
Her hot breath sent shivers down my spine, she placed her fangs on my neck and quickly sunk deep down.
The process was incredibly smooth, and I didn’t feel any pain from the penetration.
Soon, I felt as if something was being drained from my body, it was my Blood and Spirit Power.
Not long after she started, she stopped draining my Spirit Power but continued drinking my blood in large amounts.
Luckily, my blood regenerates even faster than she can drink it.
Xue Mei sucked on my neck with great force and lightly licked it while she drank the blood with a look of drunken ecstasy.
Soon, she already drained enough blood to become a fatal problem for ordinary people, if not for my regeneration abilities, she would probably have sucked me dry.
“How long are you going to drink, are you trying to kill me?” I pat her back as I lightly reprimand her.
Xue Mei woke up from my words and quickly retracted from my neck, a bit of blood was still on her lips, creating a strangely seductive appearance.
The puncture holes on my shoulder instantly closed up, “Was my blood that delicious? You drained enough to kill a normal person.”
Xue Mei blushed as she nodded her head, “It tasted like the Blood Ginseng, but even better, like a purer grade. I couldn’t help but want to drink more…”
I laughed a little at her embarrassed expression, “Silly girl…” I ruffled her hair a bit.
“It is a strong ability, but this method of extraction isn’t very feasible when we are fighting. I will make a couple gourds filled with my blood for you to use during battle.” I say.
Xue Mei nodded gently, slowly licking up the traces of blood left on her lips. It made her already red lips look like they were coated in blood red lipstick.
“Since we have finished receiving our Spirit Rings, let’s go and meet up with the teachers and Mu Bai.”
Little Yue and Feng Feng nodded they head but Xue Mei looked confused, “Master, we still haven’t gotten a Spirit Ring for you?”
“I have a special method of receiving Spirit Rings, only my girls know about it, so keep it a secret.” I put a finger to my mouth as I signal to Xue Mei.
Xue Mei hurriedly nodded her head, “I understand, Master. I won’t even tell the grass and flowers!”
****
“So, what’s with all these bruises?” I ask Mu Bai with a slight smile.
Mu Bai growled deeply in indignance, “Teacher Flander and Teacher Liu gave me some combat lesson from the kindness of their hearts.”
“Mhmm, that’s nice of them.” Nodding my head in fake understanding, I tried to keep myself from laughing.
“That’s not even the worst part. They also made me fight against Grandmaster, but Teacher Liu’s death stare made me unable to fight back. That stupid Luo San Pao kept farting and burping in my face!”
Mu Bai looked like tears were about to stream down his face when he remembered his five-day torture trip.
Little Jing who was sitting on my shoulders laughed brightly, her crisp voice gaining the attention of the others.
“Mu Bai, what are you boys talking about? Care to share it with the rest of us?” Liu Erlong asked Mu Bai gently.
Mu Bai shivered as he quickly shook his head, “It’s nothing, Teacher Liu, I was just telling Sixth Brother about the amazing combat training you gave me. With your teaching, I feel like I can even beat him!”
Liu Erlong nodded her head, “Good, good. Then when we get back, you two can fight. Make sure you don’t make me lose face as your teacher.”
Mu Bai paled as he felt like crying, he is meant to be the prideful and arrogant White Tiger, but he is surrounded by mischievous elders that like to bully him.
Liu Erlong laughed loudly as she said, “I was just joking. You don’t stand a chance against Wulin in a one on one, you don’t have to fight him.”
Mu Bai let out a sigh of relief as he hurriedly smiled to Liu Erlong, “Thank you for your leniency, Teacher Liu.”
I could see that Mu Bai really had a hard time with these three teachers. Flander was arrogant and liked to satisfy his own vanity by overpowering weaker opponents.
Liu Erlong was like a bulldozer, steam rolling her way through every fight with great strength.
And Yu Xiao Gang was completely serious during fights, not holding back any punches and even resorting to playing dirty in order to win.
I gloated over Mu Bai’s troubles and he lamented his misfortunes while all of us went back to the Academy.

*AUTHOR’S NOTE*
Hi all, I am back in my house right now. Luckily the damage to my house wasn’t too bad, and most of my electrical and furniture is fine, besides my computer… I fried the motherboard when I was plugging everything back in…
The owners of this house are beasts, they brought a skip and dumped all our ruined stuff, used a gerni to clean the garage, ripped up all the carpets and even mowed the lawn. All in one day!
I’ve cleaned the house of all the mold, so it is pretty inhabitable. I can finally cook my asian food again, and I have my WiFi back! No longer restrained to 1 gb of data for a month!
In other news, I am seriously considering changing to third person writing. I feel like it is much smoother, since I always talk about other peoples feelings anyways, which I know I shouldn’t, but I don’t follow the rules.
The next two chapters are a little side story regarding Rong Rong’s visit back home, since there are obvious changes that are going to happen when they see her.
