Chapter 7: Chapter 7: Hunting Moment
Ye Wen bowed gratefully to the old guard and then led Ah Yin into the Soul Hunting Forest.
Watching the two children leave, the old guard sighed with a hint of sadness in his eyes, and the young guard next to him curiously asked the elder guard.
"Why are you so kind today, Lao Li? I've never seen you so enthusiastic about helping others this week."
"We civilian soul masters really suffer a lot. I really can't bear to see the suffering in this world. It would be great if I could help at least a little. Like these two helpless children."
After hearing this explanation, the young guard said nothing, merely shrugged indifferently, and continued standing there nonchalantly. The two continued chatting there.
Ye Wen, who had entered the Soul Hunting Forest, walked for about an hour without encountering a single soul beast. They couldn't help but feel relaxed and complained, "This soul hunting forest is in terrible condition. After walking for so long, I haven't seen a single soul beast."
"Yes, now I wonder if this is just an ordinary forest."
Suddenly, a sound came from the Blue Silver Grass, and the two who were originally relaxed suddenly became nervous. Ye Wen quickly took out his crossbow from his storage space and cautiously looked in the direction the sound came from. But after a while, the grass made no more noise, causing Ye Wen to wonder if the sound was caused by a gust of wind. "Better to hit it, whether it's a jujube or not."
For the sake of life safety, adhering to the principle of killing the right people and not letting them go, Ye Wen directly pulled the trigger.
"Chi chi chi—" a painful cry came.
Ye Wen secretly breathed a sigh of relief; he guessed correctly. There really was something hidden in the grass.
However, Ye Wen did not relax and quickly reloaded the crossbow in his hand and placed an arrow on it.
Looking closer, he saw a vaguely white figure emerging from the grass, struggling uncontrollably there. "Is it a Needle Hair Rabbit with less than a hundred years of cultivation? Fortunately, I found it. If I had been sneak attacked by its needle hair, I fear I would have been seriously injured."
Ye Wen directly pulled Ah Yin away. Ye Wen had no interest in this kind of low-age soul beast that wasn't suitable for him. Even after its death, Ye Wen had no interest in the soul ring or the rabbit's body, which was hard and thick just hearing the name of the race. It stabs the hand, so Ye Wen didn't intend to pick it up.
To avoid attracting other soul beasts with the cries of the Needle Hair Rabbit, Ye Wen did not plan to stay here for long.
After walking a bit, they finally arrived at the stream the old guard mentioned. Ye Wen took Ah Yin and hid in a tree from a distance, using the thick leaves to cover their figures, and even took out the deodorizing powder that had been prepared and sprayed it on both of them.
Because it was getting dark, and the most dangerous time in the forest was when night fell.
Looking at the setting sun at dusk, Ye Wen calmly enjoyed the tranquility of the years.
"Ah Yin, you said that the rabbit at noon didn't provoke us, but it was killed by me with an arrow. Do you feel a little uncomfortable? Do you feel strange? I killed your kind in front of you, don't you have any idea?"
"No, although I was a Blue Silver Emperor of 100,000 years before transforming, I also grew step by step from Blue Silver Grass. As the lowest existence in this world, our clan is full of energy since its germination. We were hurt by the world. Obviously, we did nothing. So, when I became the Ten Thousand Year Blue Silver King, I understood that the nature of this world is that, instead of wishing for the favor of the strong, it's better to become stronger myself. Brother, you don't need to have any psychological burden. And although I was a soul beast in the eyes of others, I don't think so, because the definition of a soul beast was never made by us, the Blue Silver Grass Clan, but what others think. Even though I have a soul ring like a soul beast after my death, we don't consider ourselves a member of the soul beast. If the soul beast is extinct, do you think our Blue Silver Grass clan will be extinct unless the world undergoes destruction? Our Blue Silver Grass clan should be in this land."
Hearing Ah Yin's explanation, Ye Wen also smiled in relief. After all, shooting the Needle Hair Rabbit was his first kill in this world. And Ye Wen unconsciously thought the other party was of the same race as Ah Yin.
But if you think about it, this is a wrong logic. How can grass and rabbits be of the same species?
But it was the guilt of taking a life for the first time and the guilt for Ah Yin that made Ye Wen realize something was wrong with him for a while. However, after hearing Ah Yin's explanation, Ye Wen also found out that he had fallen into a misunderstanding.
After all, Ah Yin is Ah Yin, not the rebellious rabbit from the original work. Initially, Xiao Wu told Tang San not to hunt spirit beasts, but in the end, after becoming a god, he turned a blind eye to Tang San's persecution of the spirit beast clan. She is a very old green tea.
"Hey! Brother, see if that is the soul beast you want."
Hearing Ah Yin's voice, Ye Wen looked in the direction she pointed.
He saw a soul beast as furry as a sheep appearing fifty meters away from the two of them.
Ye Wen squinted his eyes and carefully identified the soul beast in front of him. There was no doubt that the soul beast in front of him was the green sac beast he was looking for. Every hundred years, one of its long hairs would grow a sharp angle. The horn on the head of the green beast in front of him had exactly four segments.
Although Ye Wen couldn't immediately know the exact age of the green beast in front of him due to the distance, the opportunity shouldn't be missed.
Let's start—time to hunt!!!
Ye Wen raised his hand and summoned the crossbow. Through the sight of the crossbow and many days of training, Ye Wen could tell he hit the target with one shot from fifty meters away without any hesitation. He fired the arrow.
The body of the green sac beast stiffened and fell directly to the ground.
It turned out that Ye Wen's arrow instantly pierced the eyes of the green sac beast, piercing its two eyeballs one after the other, killing it with one blow.
After a while, a yellow halo solidified in the air, and a century-old soul ring suddenly formed.
However, the two were in no hurry to receive their trophies. Instead, they waited silently in the tree and observed. After all, their sneak attack was not patented by them. This is a place where weak and solitary soul beasts are ambushed.
