Kapitel 69: Chapter 69: Flander's Question: "And then?"
Chapter 69: Flander's Question: "And then?"
A hundred-thousand-year soul beast recognizing another of its kind makes sense, right? If you can plan ahead to make the other party voluntarily sacrifice themselves, isn't that better than killing them outright to obtain a soul ring?
Tang Hao thought of this, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
The Star Dou Forest is so vast that even if you enter through the same route, a slight detour makes it hard to find anyone.
Not to mention finding a Man-Faced Demon Spider is only slightly easier than searching for a needle in a haystack.
"Why are you here?"
Xiao Wu looked at Kong and Dugu Yan with confusion and asked in surprise.
That's right, the best strategy is to wait. Just after entering the Star Dou Forest, wait for these "destined" children to arrive and let them "lead the way."
"The Star Dou Forest isn't your home. Why can't we be here?"
Dugu Yan, who was never one to be lenient with Xiao Wu, said irritably.
Kong, Xiao Wu, and Tang Hao fell silent.
Strictly speaking, the Star Dou Forest was indeed Xiao Wu's home, but she was just one of its inhabitants.
Xiao Wu almost blurted out, "How do you know this isn't my home?" But she swallowed her words, realizing that saying it would expose her too much.
"Dugu Yan, Xiao Wu is just puzzled why you're here if you don't need to advance in rank."
"You should know, the Star Dou Forest is one of the human forbidden zones. It's not a place for leisurely strolls. Xiao Wu is just concerned about you. How could you speak to her like that?"
After obtaining the Spirit Crystal, Tang San felt more confident. He wouldn't have dared to speak loudly to Dugu Yan before.
This woman is a formidable Soul King!
"Exactly, exactly!"
Xiao Wu nodded quickly. If Er Ming hadn't arrived yet, she wouldn't have been so calm.
"Hmph, when Er Ming comes, I'll make sure he teaches Dugu Yan and Kong a lesson!"
Xiao Wu thought viciously to herself, imagining that if there were a chance, she'd have Er Ming scatter their ashes.
"Heh..."
Dugu Yan sneered disdainfully. "You'd better worry about yourselves. Kong and I are not people you weaklings can mess with!"
In Dugu Yan's eyes, Flander, Dai Mubai, and the others didn't even require the two elders' intervention. She and Kong could handle them easily!
Maybe they could even kill them effortlessly? But killing them held no value!
Hearing this, Flander and the others felt a sharp sting but couldn't refute.
They weren't entirely clear about Dugu Yan's strength, only that she was a formidable Soul King.
Kong's strength, on the other hand, was something Flander, Dai Mubai, and Oscar had witnessed firsthand!
Xiao Wu and Tang San had passed out and didn't see Kong instantly kill Zhao Wuji. But Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Flander saw it clearly!
"You..."
Xiao Wu wanted to say something but was stopped by Tang San. Now was not the time to make enemies. When they became stronger, they wouldn't have to endure this.
"Xiao San?"
"Xiao Wu, you've already done your duty by warning them. There's no need to argue. This is the Star Dou Forest. If you attract a powerful soul beast, it could be disastrous."
Tang San advised Xiao Wu. Her eyes twitched, thinking they might not even need to say anything. Soon, powerful soul beasts would appear.
Ones at the hundred-thousand-year level!
"Okay, I'll listen to you!"
Xiao Wu nodded, then stopped paying attention to Dugu Yan. She wanted to spend more time talking with Xiao San, unsure when they'd meet again next.
Kong remained silent, taking Dugu Yan to one side, maintaining a distance of over a hundred meters from Flander and the others.
This action puzzled Dugu Yan, not understanding why Kong was doing this.
"Kong, what are we doing?"
"Shh!"
"???"
Kong placed his index finger in front of his mouth and whispered, "Don't rush. We might see an interesting show soon."
"Oh, oh!"
Dugu Yan nodded repeatedly, trusting Kong's judgment. Maybe there really would be an interesting show to watch soon?
Flander and the others were equally puzzled, not understanding why Kong was keeping a "safe distance" while following them.
"Ha, cowards!"
Xiao Wu pouted, naturally assuming Kong and Dugu Yan were cowards. Otherwise, why would they be following behind them?
Time passed, and after more than half an hour, Flander and the others had reached the true outskirts of the Star Dou Forest, where ten-year and hundred-year soul beasts began to appear more frequently.
The hierarchy of the Star Dou Forest was strict. Ten-year and hundred-year soul beasts mostly lived on the outskirts, with the occasional thousand-year soul beast appearing. Of course, if you were unlucky, you might encounter a ten-thousand-year soul beast!
Powerful hundred-year and thousand-year soul beasts mostly lived in mixed zones, where some ten-thousand-year soul beasts also resided.
Further in was the "core" area of the Star Dou Forest, where almost all soul beasts were at least ten-thousand-year or even hundred-thousand-year level.
At the true core of the Star Dou Forest, the Lake of Life, was the most terrifying place!
The Silver Dragon King was asleep there.
Di Tian, Bear Lord, Bi Ji, Zi Ji, and other fierce beasts were also in slumber, absorbing the soul power of an ice silkworm.
At this moment, a skeleton about three meters long appeared before everyone. Seeing this skeleton, the others didn't react much. It was normal to see soul beast skeletons in the Star Dou Forest since not all soul beasts were herbivores.
However, upon seeing this skeleton, Oscar felt as though he was missing something.
"This is the skeleton of a snake-type soul beast. Judging by its appearance, it probably died yesterday."
Flander explained to everyone. With only a skeleton left, he could only roughly determine the type of soul beast, but not the exact species.
"Let's move on. There's nothing to see here. This kind of thing is everywhere in the Star Dou Forest."
Flander waved his hand, indicating to everyone to move on.
These soul beasts had been dead for a day and had lost their value. In a few days, even the skeleton might be gone.
"Dean, this soul beast should have been killed by a soul master. Look..."
Flander had already said to move on, but Tang San pointed at the skeleton.
After learning so much from Yu Xiaogang, he felt uncomfortable if he didn't show off his knowledge a bit!
"Look here, the bones of this soul beast's abdomen show signs of being damaged by a sharp weapon!"
"And then?"
"And then, it proves that it was killed by a soul master!"
Flander was speechless. Even if it was proven that a soul master killed it, what difference did it make? Are you crazy or something?
