Bab 184: Chapter 179: The Goddess Shows Interest, Luo Yu Remains Unmoved, This Child Is Sure to Achieve Greatness!_1
Dense jungle.
The enormous body of the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent lay coiled and unconscious on the ground.
The elderly woman and the alluring young girl, shocked, watched the tall and handsome figure.
Amazement in their eyes, their feelings incredibly complex.
Both granddaughter and grandmother were no ordinary people, so naturally they could see the terrifying aspect of the youth.
Despite his young age, he had toppled the thousand-year Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent with mere physical strength.
This was not something an average person could accomplish.
Luo Yu shook his head at the astonished pair.
"Do not worry, I am just passing by."
The old woman, having regained her composure, cupped her hands in a salute.
"I am Granny Python, Chao Tian Xiang, this is my granddaughter Meng Yiran. We have been chasing this vile creature for several Shichen without success, thank you, young friend, for lending a hand."
"Otherwise, it might have taken us even longer."
Luo Yu's expression was calm, "It was a small effort, not worth mentioning."
Granny Snake found the youth's nonchalant demeanor intriguing.
Which Great Sect had cultivated such an outstanding young talent?
Not only was his strength astonishing, his character seemed so generous and proper.
He indeed deserved to be called a prodigy.
Old and experienced as she was, Granny Snake immediately considered befriending him.
Her wrinkled face showed a friendly smile, "Meeting is fate, may I know which sect you belong to, young friend? Could you please reveal a bit about yourself?"
Luo Yu was not impressed by Granny Snake's sudden warmth.
He pointed to the ground.
"I kicked a bit too hard just now. The internal organs of this Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent are damaged, and its life is rapidly fading. You should let your granddaughter finish it off quickly and absorb it."
"There's no need to rush, no need to rush,"
Granny Snake said with a smile, pulling on the arm of the girl next to her.
"Yiran, quickly thank this young friend for his help."
The bewitching young girl had in fact been staring at Luo Yu from the start.
She had never seen such a handsome young man in her sect before.
His formidable strength, coupled with the trace of indifference on his lips, had mesmerized her slightly.
It was only after Granny Snake called out that she was brought back to reality.
Meng Yiran gracefully bent her fair, jade-like legs and performed a courteous gesture, her charming voice carrying through.
"Thank you for lending your hand, young man."
"Yiran is immensely grateful."
Luo Yu calmly looked at the young girl in front of him.
She was indeed somewhat attractive, with a well-developed figure, her leather chest guard encasing her ample curves, and her legs slender and straight – quite charming indeed.
She bore some resemblance to the enchanting air of Dugu Yan, though she still fell short.
In the face of the girl's gratitude, Luo Yu did not say much, merely nodding slightly.
"It was nothing, you're welcome."
Meng Yiran curiously scrutinized Luo Yu with her beautiful eyes.
Such a cool and aloof young man.
Usually, in the sect or academy, there were always men fawning over her, but she never liked them and considered them to be nothing more than a group of sycophants.
Finally, she had an encounter with a man who caught her eye.
Yet, he seemed to be completely indifferent to her, his demeanor unenthusiastically pushing people thousands of miles away, as if intentionally maintaining a distance.
This triggered a sense of defeat deep in her heart, causing her to doubt her own beauty.
In fact, she was right; not just any girl could grab Luo Yu's attention.
As for Meng Yiran, Luo Yu merely appreciated her to some extent but felt nothing special.
Naturally, he wouldn't do anything more.
He turned to leave.
"Young friend, please wait," Granny Snake called out.
"Hmm?" Luo Yu turned his gaze.
Granny Snake smiled and said, "I don't know the name of this young friend. Please tell this old lady so I might have the chance to visit and thank you in the future."
"There's no need for that," came the response.
Luo Yu waved his hand, summoning the power beneath his feet, and leapt high into the air, vanishing among the trees.
Granny Snake's face was one of astonishment, not expecting Luo Yu to leave so abruptly.
Reasonably, disciples from major forces should have heard of the name of Dragon Patriarch and Granny Snake.
When the two of them joined forces, they could even rival a Titled Douluo, which granted them some renown. Others would usually give them some face when they met.
Yet this youngster seemed not to care at all.
"Granny, why did he just leave like that?" Meng Yiran asked with her beautiful eyes fixated on the direction Luo Yu had disappeared, not moving her gaze away for a long time.
"I don't know either," Granny Snake hesitated. "Perhaps he simply didn't deign to converse with us?"
Meng Yiran uttered in surprise, "That can't be, Granny. Although you and Grandpa are not the top figures in Soul Land, you still hold a certain status. How can he dare to look down on you?"
Granny Snake shook her head, "Yiran, you've misunderstood."
"It's not that he looks down on Granny, he probably doesn't take anyone to heart."
"I can see that there is an air about his eyes, as if destined to reach the pinnacle, as though no outsider could stir the waves in his heart, only he himself can."
Meng Yiran expressed her amazement, "Granny, aren't you being a bit too speculative? I've been watching him the whole time too, and I didn't notice any of what you mentioned."
Granny Snake shook her head, "You are still young, there's a lot you can't see yet, but you'll understand in time."
Meng Yiran placed a fingertip on her lips, and said as if she nearly grasped the meaning, "So, Granny, you think highly of him?"
Granny Snake laughed and reached out to touch her granddaughter's forehead.
"Silly girl, is there even a need for Granny to appraise him? His excellence is obvious."
"Would you dare to make a bet with Granny?"
"What are we betting on?" Meng Yiran blinked her beautiful eyes, curious.
Granny Snake looked in the direction where Luo Yu had disappeared, "Although I don't know which power this young man belongs to, and I haven't heard of such a person before,"
"I am sure that within ten years, with his demeanor and strength, he will become renowned throughout the land."
Meng Yiran smiled and said, "You mean he'll surpass you and Grandpa within ten years?"
Granny Snake shook her head.
"Silly girl, I'm talking about him gaining fame among his peers within ten years."
"Your grandpa and I aren't just idly sitting by, after all."
"If he wants to reach the heights of us two old bones, he might need to cultivate for another fifteen or twenty years to have a chance."
Meng Yiran stuck out her tongue, her youthful playfulness emerging, "Hehe, but aren't you at the Soul Emperor level? I think he'll catch up with you quite quickly."
Granny Snake retorted irritably, "You cheeky girl, are you quibbling with Granny?"
"Yes, reaching my level of strength might not take him that many years."
"But your grandpa is at the Soul Douluo Level, a powerhouse. That kid, no matter how talented, certainly can't catch up in just a decade or so, especially since even the esteemed Tang Hao didn't advance that fast back in the day."
"Ah, right." Meng Yiran nodded.
Granny Snake urged, "Alright, hurry up and absorb the soul ring. We really should thank that person for helping out this time."
"After you're done, go meet up with your grandpa."
"Okay."
Meng Yiran happily complied, for the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent was the most suitable for her third soul ring.
At this moment, Luo Yu was darting through the forest.
Activating his Creation God Pupil, his eyes emitted beams of Amethyst Gold light, searching all around for Xiaowu and the others' presence.
With Gu Yuena's God Rank spiritual power, it should have been easy to help Luo Yu locate Xiaowu and the girls.
It would have been both convenient and accurate.
Yet, Gu Yuena still refused to help due to jealousy, insisting he find them on his own.
Sigh, Star Dou Forest was so vast—it was like finding a needle in the ocean.
Luo Yu sighed.
Just as he was weaving through the forest with an expression of speechlessness,
A purple-black net descended from the sky, heading straight for him...
