A year went by.
During this year, many important things happened in his sect. Sword Douluo successfully reached level 96. Bone Douluo will also reach level 95 soon. There were also many significant political improvements.
Now Xie Yue is 10 years old. After a year, his cultivation improved by 3 levels, going from level 22 to level 25. If it continues like this, in another year and eight months, he will reach level 30.
During this year, Xie Yue also pondered why he awakened twin martial souls but had no innate full soul power. He had some ideas but wasn't entirely sure.
Yes, Xie Yue has twin martial souls.
When he awakened his martial soul, he also awakened another martial soul alongside his original Moon Blade martial soul. However, it didn't manifest because it had no form to take.
His second martial soul is not a body martial soul, but a blank martial soul, similar to the one Tianmeng gave to Huo Yuhao.
When Huo Yuhao absorbs a soul ring for his second blank martial soul, it takes the form of the spirit beast that the first soul ring came from. For example, if Huo Yuhao absorbs an Ice Jade Scorpion soul ring as the first soul ring for his second martial soul, it will take its form.
But there is a catch: it can only be an ice attribute soul ring. The blank martial soul Tianmeng's ice silkworm gave Huo Yuhao had that attribute. Therefore, the first soul ring can only come from ice-type soul beasts.
Huo Yuhao's blank martial soul had restrictions, but Xie Yue has none. His blank martial soul has no attributes, allowing him choose to absorb any soul beast's soul ring and take its form. For example, he could kill the injured Blue Silver Emperor, Ah Yin, and absorb her 10-year soul ring into his second martial soul, gaining the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul and bloodline.
Over these years, Xie Yue also thought about why he awakened twin martial souls unlike the original Xie Yue. He reasoned that any soul can awaken its martial soul if it turns into a human, as that is the law of the Douluo Plane. Is there any human in this world without a martial soul? The answer is no. Every human awakens their martial soul when they turn 6 years old. Common people also have martial souls, but they may not awaken innate soul power. Even soul beasts can awaken martial souls once they transform into humans, for example, Xiao Wu. This is the law of this world; even soul beasts can gain martial souls after shedding their beast bodies. This is also the fundamental reason for Xie Yue's second martial soul awakening.
Xie Yue wasn't born from a womb; he occupied the body of little Xie Yue when he was 8 months old and fused with that little soul, digesting all its memories fully. Since little Xie Yue didn't have many memories, it didn't influence his personality, allowing him to dominate everything.
However, the truth can't be changed: he indeed fused with that little Xie Yue, and he is not the original him. After all, memories are what make a person who they originally were. After the fusion, he may not be the original him. But so what? From his point of view, there is nothing wrong with it. Is he the original Xie Yue? Or is he the past old him? The current Xie Yue doesn't care about anything. He thinks he is the old man, so and then, that will be the truth from now on.
The Moon Blade martial soul belongs to little Xie Yue's soul; because he fused with it, he awakened the Moon Blade martial soul. But that blank martial soul is the martial soul that belongs to the old man. Since he was a human soul when he traveled here and fused with a human body, he awakened another martial soul. And because he wasn't from this world initially, he awakened a blank martial soul. That is his guess.
But what about Tang San? Xie Yue didn't care about this. The original work didn't mention anything about swallowing or fusion. Tang San was a reborn person, as the original novel stated. His twin martial souls came from two equally powerful bloodlines. His soul was reborn from Tang Hao's sperm and entered Ah Yin's womb...
Xie Yue himself doubted whether he was someone else's pawn in a grand plan. But he only thought about it for a while and didn't care much.
Don't think about what you cannot comprehend.
It's not like he has the power to escape their control or take revenge, right? If he was weak, others would indeed use him for their benefits. After all, if given the chance, he would also do the same; there is nothing wrong with others using him. He is not in a position to complain, anyway. Those who brought him here would likely have the power to foresee situations and his possible character. With their power, they could restrict him and prevent possible retaliation.
But that doesn't mean he would let them use him. He would think about it once he could understand their plans and bite back. (AN: The truth was... he wasn't anyone's pawn. So readers can calm down.)
'If I can use others, then others can also use me if they have the ability. That's natural,' Xie Yue thought.
As for his innate soul power level... Maybe it's because his martial soul wasn't finalized, so he lacked innate full soul power. If he chose a super beast, there is a possibility his innate cultivation talent could increase to innate level 11 or more. If he chose a god-level beast, he might even reach the same innate level as Qian Renxue, achieving level 20. But that's only for the future. His second martial soul doesn't have any immediate usefulness. He is not like Huo Yuhao, who has Tianmeng's help to stabilize and add soul rings to his second martial soul. If Xie Yue attempted this without Title Douluo-level physical strength, he wouldn't know when or how he might die.

STGT Sect, Inside Hu Liena's Room
Xie Yue sat on Hu Liena's bed without wearing anything. He had his first erection today, and his perverted heart was already excited.
"Nana, come here," he called to her.
"Brother..., it's not good....." she hesitated. Hu Liena was no longer a child; because of her brother, she had learned many things about sex.
"Helping your brother isn't good?" Xie Yue asked back. He was surprised bye her reaction;He raised her to serve him as her master. She was his servant. He had instilled the concept of serving him since childhood. But he didn't expect her to hesitate.
He couldn't blame himself entirely either. He was not a professional manipulator or trainer, and he couldn't lock her up and prevent her from interacting with others. But once he let her interact with people, she would gain worldly knowledge and moral concepts. Was that his fault? He couldn't always babysit her.
"Oh..." Hearing him, she decided to listen. She wanted to serve him well and fulfill the duties her brother had taught her. But the world said otherwise. She hesitated only for a moment. She knew her brother well; he did everything to provide her with a good home, and if she went against him, she might lose him entirely.
She loved him very much. This little hesitation was just to gauge her brother's stance on the matter. Since he wanted to take her virginity and possess her despite knowing what others would say, she felt satisfied. What else could a woman ask for? Every woman wants her man to go against the entire world for her. She was happy that he didn't care about what others thought.
