Capítulo 54: Chapter 54: I Want to Be Alone
"Dai Mubai, what about you?" Zhao Wuji asked, looking at Dai Mubai, who had his mouth open in an 'O' shape.
"I... I want to be alone too!" Dai Mubai glanced at Tang San.
"Zhu Zhuqing, what about you?" Zhao Wuji turned to Zhu Zhuqing.
"Let me be alone for a bit," Zhu Zhuqing said, gazing at the ice-sealed Phoenix-Tailed Cockscomb Serpent on the ground. The gap between her and Mu Chen was unexpectedly vast.
"Ning Rongrong, your thoughts?" Zhao Wuji's lips curled slightly.
"I also want to be alone," Ning Rongrong replied earnestly. As a prideful young lady, she couldn't help but admire Mu Chen.
"Ma Hongjun?" Zhao Wuji called out.
"Teacher, I suddenly want to be alone too!" Ma Hongjun replied.
"It seems you all, like me, want some time alone!" Zhao Wuji looked at Mu Chen with a gratified expression.
A thousand-year-old serpent was defeated so easily by Mu Chen. When Mu Chen summoned his martial spirit, he was even more terrifying. Though Zhao Wuji, as a Soul Saint of over seventy levels, was confident he could defeat Mu Chen, the third soul skill of Mu Chen's Chaos Sword, "Snow Goddess's Sigh," was definitely a formidable challenge.
"Mu Chen, you truly are a monster. Oscar, why are you still standing there? Time waits for no one; go ahead and claim your third spirit ring from its crest," Zhao Wuji praised Mu Chen while urging Oscar to seize his spirit ring.
"Stop!"
A hoarse voice broke the silence, and everyone turned to see an elderly woman and a young girl approaching, both female.
The older woman appeared to be in her sixties or seventies, with neatly combed white hair. Despite her age, her spirit was vibrant, her cheeks rosy like a newborn's. Her eyes shone brightly, and she held a three-meter-long snake-headed staff, crowned by six spirit rings.
The appearance of the rings caused no change in the old woman's body, suggesting that her snake-headed staff was her martial spirit.
Beside her, the young girl, with short hair reaching her ears, appeared to be around sixteen or seventeen. Her well-fitted outfit accentuated her well-developed figure. Her deep brown eyes were fixed on the Phoenix-Tailed Cockscomb Serpent at Oscar's feet. She also held a snake-headed staff, shorter than the old woman's, about two meters long, surrounded by two yellow century-old spirit rings.
"Six spirit rings?!" Zhao Wuji sneered slightly, and with a thought, seven spirit rings descended from above him, colored yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black.
"Soul Saint?" The old woman was momentarily surprised, showing astonishment but not fear.
"Is there something you need?" Zhao Wuji asked indifferently.
In the Heaven Dou Great Forest, one had to be wary of soul masters as much as spirit beasts. Sometimes, soul masters would fight fiercely over a spirit ring.
"Honorable Soul Saint, you cannot give this Phoenix-Tailed Cockscomb Serpent to this child. You might have heard my name, Chao Tianxiang," the old woman introduced herself.
Chao Tianxiang? A martial spirit of the snake-headed staff. This name seemed familiar. Could she be one of the famed Dragon and Snake couple?
Zhao Wuji was taken aback and asked, "Why?"
The young girl beside the old woman, Meng Yiran, answered first, "Because we found this snake first."
"You found it first? How can you prove that? When we found it, we didn't see you. After our boss Mu severely injured it, you suddenly appeared, claiming you found it first. How can we accept that?" Oscar said urgently.
"Young man, don't be anxious. If you don't believe my granddaughter, you can check its abdomen. There are three marks from my staff," Chao Tianxiang said.
Following her words, the Shrek Seven Devils indeed found three fresh wounds on the serpent's abdomen.
"My granddaughter just reached level thirty and needs this spirit ring. It's a snake-type spirit beast, and her martial spirit is the snake-headed staff, making it very suitable for her," Chao Tianxiang explained calmly.
The Shrek Seven Devils, including Zhao Wuji, fell silent, unsure of what to say.
"Is the visitor the Serpent Grandmother, Chao Tianxiang?" Mu Chen asked.
"Indeed. The soul master community affectionately calls me that," Chao Tianxiang said, looking at Mu Chen, surprised he recognized her.
"Serpent Grandmother?"
"She's the Serpent Grandmother? The legendary Serpent Grandmother?"
"Who is the Serpent Grandmother?"
"Dragon Duke Meng Shu and Serpent Grandmother Chao Tianxiang are a renowned couple in the soul master world. Don't underestimate the Serpent Grandmother's power, even though she is only a Soul Emperor. She can synchronize with Dragon Duke, forming the legendary martial spirit fusion skill. It's said they can even challenge a Title Douluo. With the Serpent Grandmother here, the Dragon Duke must be nearby."
Faced with Chao Tianxiang, the Shrek Seven Devils murmured among themselves. Hearing that she could battle a Title Douluo, they were all surprised as they looked at the elderly woman.
"Does this mean my spirit ring is gone?" Oscar asked.
"Don't worry, with me here, your spirit ring won't be lost," Mu Chen said calmly.
Chao Tianxiang glanced at Mu Chen, dismissing his words. She stepped forward and asked, "May I know your name?"
"I am Zhao Wuji," Zhao Wuji replied.
"So, it's the famous Immovable King, Zhao Wuji. No wonder, I thought it was unusual to meet such a young Soul Saint," Chao Tianxiang replied nonchalantly.
"Not at all, just a notorious reputation," Zhao Wuji said indifferently.
"Serpent Grandmother, Teacher Zhao, continuing this conversation isn't helpful. Serpent Grandmother, this snake is suitable for your granddaughter, but it's also suitable for Oscar. You injured it first; we severely injured it afterward. I have a solution to this problem," Mu Chen interjected.
"So, you don't intend to return the Phoenix-Tailed Cockscomb Serpent to us?" the Serpent Grandmother asked coldly.
"Serpent Grandmother, no need to stall. The Dragon Duke can't reach here quickly, right? Besides, we are from Shrek Academy, and you must have heard of the Golden Iron Triangle," Mu Chen said.
"Golden Iron Triangle?" The Serpent Grandmother was taken aback; she had indeed heard of their reputation.
"You and the Dragon Duke can challenge a Title Douluo, and so can the Golden Iron Triangle. If a fight breaks out, you won't gain much. Why not hear my suggestion first?" Mu Chen continued.
"Your suggestion?" The Serpent Grandmother looked around. Without the Dragon Duke present, she couldn't protect her granddaughter and defeat these people simultaneously. She asked, "What is your suggestion?"
