Chapter 300: Zhu Zhuqing’s Jealousy, Qian Renxue’s Smugness

In the center of the Star Dou Great Forest. Xiao Wu looked at the lake occupied by a group of beasts, her heart sad and grieving. Two years, a full two years. She had not seen a trace of Da Ming or Er Ming in the Star Dou Great Forest. She didn’t understand, where had Da Ming and Er Ming gone? Had something happened to them? But Da Ming and Er Ming were clearly the kings of the Star Dou Great Forest. Their talent was also at the very top among soul beasts. Who could cause an accident to happen to them? At the side, Tang San gently held Xiao Wu, comforting her in a soft voice. From a distance, it looked incomparably warm and affectionate. Ever since he had hunted and killed the Blue Silver King, he had gone to find Xiao Wu at the first opportunity. Now that he had no father and no mother, Xiao Wu was his entire world. As for Yu Xiaogang, what the hell was he! Thinking of this, a trace of gloom was buried in Tang San’s eyes. The moment he had arrived, he had run into a frantically fleeing Xiao Wu. Seeing his beloved in such a sorry state, his heart felt as if it were being cut by a knife. "It’s alright, Xiao Wu. Although Da Ming and Er Ming are nowhere to be found now, with my current strength, I can definitely protect you well." Tang San said with confidence. The soul ring of the Blue Silver King was a perfect match for him. Plus the thick soul power he had absorbed in the Slaughter City, it had allowed his soul power to leap to level eighty all at once. This seemed terrifying, but was actually normal. He had won seventy-eight consecutive victories in the Hell Slaughtering Fields. The number of experts who had been sucked into dried corpses by him was countless. To have such an improvement was also within reason. Xiao Wu gently hummed in agreement, lightly leaning on Tang San’s shoulder. Suddenly, a slightly trembling voice sounded, "Sister Xiao Wu, I’m finally back~ And I’ve finally found you." A giant cow’s head passed through the tall, dense forest and poked over. It was precisely the Sky Azure Bull Python, Da Ming, who had been sent flying who-knows-where by a slap from Kung Fu Tom back then. Xiao Wu first looked over with pleasant surprise, then noticed that it was only Da Ming, one beast. "Da Ming, where have you been for so long? And what about Er Ming? Isn’t he with you?" A trace of fear flashed in the Sky Azure Bull Python’s eyes. He remembered the scene of being dominated by Tom that day. At the same time, a withered old man, leading two unbelievably beautiful girls, walked into the Star Dou Great Forest. Gu Rong looked at his own little princess and disciple with great satisfaction. Yes, Zhu Zhuqing had already been taken as a disciple by Gu Rong. The evolved Moonlight Spirit Cat, its mysterious attribute was simply too in line with Gu Rong’s temperament, so he had developed a love for her talent. This time, the few of them had come to the Star Dou Great Forest precisely to help Ning Rongrong obtain her fifth soul ring. When participating in the Soul Master Tournament, Ning Rongrong’s realm was only a Soul Ancestor. For her to cultivate to a Soul King in two years’ time was by no means slow. As for Zhu Zhuqing, she was even more hardworking. Now, she was already a level fifty-five high-level Soul King. Gu Rong, with a calm expression, led the two girls straight into the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest. Only there was the most suitable soul ring for Ning Rongrong. It was just that this withered old man’s heart suddenly alerted. His Bone Dragon martial soul possessed a spatial attribute and was extremely sensitive to spatial fluctuations. He had sensed the arrival of three powerful auras. Two of them were even old acquaintances. And another aura was sharp and pierced the sky. In Gu Rong’s perception, it was in no way inferior to Chen Xin’s body of sword qi. ’What are they doing here?’ A trace of gloom flashed in Gu Rong’s eyes. "Grandpa Bone, did something happen?" Ning Rongrong asked with confusion. Gu Rong smiled. "It’s nothing. Let’s keep moving forward. Let’s try to get a suitable soul ring for my little princess as soon as possible. Otherwise, if we’re out for too long, that old scoundrel and Fengzhi will worry." Ning Rongrong also nodded, but found that Zhu Zhuqing was silently looking towards the south. "What’s wrong, Zhuqing? What are you dazed about?" Two years had passed, and both girls had changed. Ning Rongrong was still alright, only manifesting in being slightly bigger, no longer an A-cup girl. But Zhu Zhuqing’s changes were clearly greater. Zhu Zhuqing, who was originally slightly cold, after Shen An had fled Star Luo, the icy aura on her body that warned strangers away was even more intense by countless times. The fiery, perfect figure and the coldness on her face formed a sharp contrast, giving people an even stronger attraction. Her gaze remained unchanged towards the south. She suddenly said, "If we keep walking south, it should be the territory of Star Luo, right? Perhaps... we can find him." Gu Rong’s heart skipped a beat. Hunting for a soul is such a beautiful thing. Why suddenly bring up that boy? Sure enough, Ning Rongrong’s eyes darted around. She shook Gu Rong’s arm and said, "Grandpa Bone, how about after we get the soul ring, we go to the Star Luo Empire to have a look?" Zhu Zhuqing also looked over, a brilliance in her eyes. Gu Rong directly cursed in his heart. What’s so good about that boy, to make my own little princess and disciple think about him so much? Isn’t it just that he’s a little more handsome, his talent a little higher, his combat power a little fiercer, his character a little better, and the cat he raises knows how to do backflips and a series of other fancy tricks... The more Gu Rong thought, the more something felt wrong. To put it this way, it seemed he really was quite attractive. On the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest. Shen An stood on his flying sword. The sword was over three meters long and nearly two meters wide, riding the long sky. With his current cultivation, the size of his martial soul could change as he willed. On the sword stood two people, one cat, and one mouse. Beside the flying sword was also a golden chrysanthemum following. On it stood two figures, precisely the Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluos. As for the other person on the sword besides Shen An, that was naturally Qian Renxue. She had no interest in capturing soul beasts, but she was very interested in traveling the mountains and playing in the waters with Shen An, so she had specially come along. Of course, she was also worried that a certain someone would go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect halfway and rekindle old feelings, so she was prepared to follow him all the way. As the most special person in Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong couldn’t control what she wanted to do and could only accept it while holding her nose. Before leaving, Bibi Dong had even specially instructed Shen An that he could pretend to surrender to Qian Renxue, but he could not really hand over the humanoid soul beast. Jerry stood at the tip of the sword, its arms stretched out against the wind. Tom lazily let out a yawn, then stretched out two fingers, clamped Jerry’s waist, as if holding him. Rose and Jack? No, it’s Tom and Jerry! Seeing this scene, Shen An directly let out a "pfft" laugh. Isn’t this the classic scene from my past life, "if you jump, I jump"? Then, this classic scene did not last long. Tom’s eyes darted around, and a mischievous thought went up. With a force of his fingers, he flicked. Jerry was directly thrown under the flying sword. Tom was even more excited to see Jerry’s miserable state of falling to the ground. It was just that Jerry did not let it have its wish. On the contrary, like a swimming fish, it swung its head and tail in the air, going against the current. Under Tom’s incredulous gaze, its two legs were like a fish’s tail, directly slapping Tom’s face "pa pa pa." Finally, it even gave a fierce kick, almost kicking Tom off. It was just that this scene did not cause any fluctuation in Shen An. Not to mention Shen An, even the Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluos at the side had a look of being used to it. Along this journey, they had already seen these two little fellows fight who knows how many times. For the various abilities they displayed that violated common sense, they had also gone from shock at the beginning to being used to it in the end. Qian Renxue, as one of the first to come into contact with Tom and Jerry, was even more so turning a blind eye. On the contrary, she asked with confusion, "What were the two of them doing at the beginning?" After Shen An heard this, he glanced over. "Imitating the male and female protagonists in a classic story. If you jump, I jump." Qian Renxue’s interest was piqued. "The journey is long. Why don’t you tell me this story?" Shen An was also idle and bored, so he recounted the story of the Titanic, which was extremely famous in his past life. The three people at the side were mesmerized. When they heard that Jack had given the chance of survival to Rose, Yue Guan even couldn’t help but wipe the corner of his eye. Gui Mei at the side’s mouth twitched. He didn’t understand what was so sad about this. Qian Renxue, on the other hand, gave a pointed sharp critique. "The three views are not right. She was clearly a married woman, yet she fell in love with another. Truly shameless, don’t you think?" Shen An was just about to answer "yes" when he suddenly and silently swallowed the words that had rushed to his throat. Qian Renxue is using this to allude to Zhu Zhuqing. He almost hadn’t reacted. These people who had been engaged in political maneuvering since they were young, their hearts were truly dirty. Seeing that Shen An did not speak, Qian Renxue pouted slightly. "You two elders, the Star Dou Great Forest is ahead. Why don’t we still act separately? This way, the efficiency will also be higher," Shen An said with a smile. With these two following, Shen An always felt a little uncomfortable. It was better to separate here. Yue Guan and Gui Mei looked at each other and felt that what Shen An said was right. Rather than searching together, it was better to act separately. Anyway, with their strength as Titled Douluos, in the Star Dou Great Forest without its two great forest kings, it was basically like walking on flat ground. Originally, the two great forest kings of the Star Dou Great Forest had made them slightly wary. But now it was different. They had investigated for these two years. After that one battle, one of the two great forest kings had disappeared without a trace, and the other was left with only a corpse for countless soul beasts to gnaw on. "What Elder Yan says is extremely right. If you find a trace of that humanoid soul beast, just send out a sword qi, and I and Old Ghost will immediately rush over." Shen An nodded and went in two opposite directions from the Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluos. Qian Renxue, needless to say, followed Shen An. As the figures of Yue Guan and Gui Mei grew more distant, the smile on her face grew wider. The two troublesome fellows were finally gone. She was happy in her heart. Suddenly, Shen An sensed his hand being held by a warm, soft, and slender hand. Qian Renxue had at some unknown time come up close. Shen An’s brow furrowed. He pulled without changing his expression... he couldn’t pull it out. "Get rid of the thing on your face. It’s awkward to look at," Qian Renxue suddenly said. Shen An thought for a moment. That was also true. Now that Chrysanthemum and Ghost were not here, there was no need to hide. Although Tom’s workmanship was very good, wearing it always felt like some kind of strange restraint. Shen An then took out a handful of clear water, rubbed it on his face, and was like a different person. From the original plainness, he instantly became a delicate and handsome youth. Seeing this, Tom and Jerry also took off their masks, breathing the natural air. Qian Renxue clicked her tongue in amazement. This disguise ability was too amazing. If he hadn’t taken it off himself, it would be simply impossible to be discovered. "What about your martial soul? I remember it was azure. Why did it suddenly become a normal sword?" Thus, under Qian Renxue’s gaze, Shen An washed it again with water. The paint faded, and the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass revealed its original appearance, like azure glazed glass. Then, under Qian Renxue’s incredulous gaze, Shen An summoned his nine soul rings and manually removed three. Qian Renxue... Who the f*ck would have thought that a face could be painted, a martial soul could be painted, and even soul rings could be painted? This kind of means was simply unheard of. Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something and said in a hoarse voice, "So you are now a Soul Emperor, directly suppressing a level ninety-five Titled Douluo." Qian Renxue couldn’t hold it in anymore. She had once thought that Shen An might, due to some opportunity, just like her Angelic God’s Trial, quickly raise his realm to Soul Douluo or even Titled Douluo. But she had never, ever expected that the Shen An who could suppress the Chrysanthemum Douluo was not even at the Soul Sage realm yet. As everyone knows, whether one has a Martial Soul True Body or not, for a soul master’s combat power, it was simply heaven and earth. Shen An silently nodded. Then, looking at the mouth of the heroic golden palace-dressed woman before him slowly opening into an ’O’ shape, he actually felt a kind of reverse-moe. The originally majestic and noble empress-template Qian Renxue also had such a dumb and cute side. It really made one can’t help but want to pinch her face. Qian Renxue inexplicably felt a sense of urgency. Her thoughts began to drift far away, even thinking about her future family status. ’No, I still can’t slack off. I have to quickly cultivate to Titled Douluo. No, that’s not enough. Become a god. After becoming a god, I’ll be worry-free for a lifetime.’ "Let’s go, find the rabbit." Shen An said. As everyone knows, Tang San prided himself on being a great filial son. His father was dead. As a son, it was very normal to accompany him in death, right? Shen An decided to speed up this process. The first thing to do was to find a certain rabbit first. As his words fell, the force of Qian Renxue’s hand increased a lot. Her face carried a dangerous aura as she said, "Are you very concerned about the mission that woman arranged?" "I have an old grudge with them. I want to use this rabbit to follow the vine and find the melon, to find them all and settle the score." Only then did Qian Renxue’s face look better. She tightly held Shen An’s hand, unwilling to let go, her body gently snuggling over. "Fine then. Just take it as accompanying you to travel the mountains and play in the waters." --- "Da Ming, are you saying Er Ming is dead?" Large teardrops fell from Xiao Wu’s eyes. She said with a sob. Da Ming’s eyes also held hatred. He and Er Ming had been together for a hundred thousand years. The moment he had returned to the Star Dou Great Forest, he had sensed Er Ming’s aura. So he had gone there without stopping, only to find nothing but a pile of bones. Even the bones were fragmented. It was the ravaging of other soul beasts. Tang San’s face was also extremely colorful. A cat, with one move, had sent the king of the forest, the Sky Azure Bull Python, flying who knows how far, making it take two years to return to the Star Dou Great Forest. Even the Titan Giant Ape was very likely killed by this cat. Was the cat beside Shen An so terrifying? Something was wrong. Very wrong. "Da Ming, we must avenge Er Ming," Xiao Wu wiped away her tears and said resolutely. Fear was in Da Ming’s eyes. He certainly wanted to avenge his brother, but he was really scared to death by Tom. It wasn’t that he wasn’t righteous. Facing the Tom who treated the two of them like babies to be beaten, that wasn’t called revenge. That was called sending oneself to die. Seeing that Da Ming didn’t seem to dare, how could this be? This hundred-thousand-year overlord soul beast was an extremely strong assistance. If he had Da Ming’s help, what Shen An, what Yan Chixia? Lure them to the Star Dou Great Forest, plus his current cultivation realm, he would surely be able to get his revenge. "Da Ming, are you worried about that cat? But in your words, the first time that cat saw you, it could only use tricks to escape. The second time, it only burst out with that strange power." Da Ming’s face was hesitant, undecided. ’There’s a chance,’ Tang San was happy to see this. "In the past, Shen An was forced by Bibi Dong. If that cat really had such god-like and unpredictable combat power, he would not have fled to Star Luo." "So, I boldly speculate that this kind of means should only be usable once," a light of wisdom flowed from Tang San’s eyes. Da Ming was slightly moved, a look of eagerness in his eyes. "Er Ming died tragically, his bones trampled upon. How can we be indifferent? Da Ming, no matter what you think, I, Tang San, as Xiao Wu’s lover, will not stand by idly." The Tang Buddha said with pity for all of heaven and humanity, which made the Xiao Wu at the side’s eyes fill with a strange brilliance. And these words had indeed touched Da Ming. His feelings for Er Ming were extremely deep. Naturally, he wanted to avenge him. Now what Tang San said was even more reasonable, which made him realize that the cat was not invincible. "Let’s do it! What do you want to do? I’ll listen to you!" Da Ming’s breath was heavy as he said fiercely. "I’ll first find a way to find someone important to Shen An, tie them up, and then release the news to lure him over." He was proudly saying his plan. As a disciple of the Tang Sect, he should use any means to achieve his goal. Suddenly, he saw Er Ming... no, Da Ming, raise his head and look into the distance, his gaze quiet. The two looked at Da Ming strangely. Da Ming’s voice contained endless hatred. "No need to look. That person has come. I have sensed the aura of Er Ming’s soul bone skill." Tang San immediately understood. No one could be indifferent in the face of a hundred-thousand-year soul bone. After Er Ming’s death, Shen An would surely absorb it. So, since the aura of the soul bone skill appeared, it meant Shen An had definitely come. Unlike Da Ming’s thick hatred, Tang San was ecstatic in his heart. Kill Shen An, and won’t that hundred-thousand-year soul bone be his? With Da Ming here, it’s absolutely foolproof. "Let’s go! Let’s go and avenge Er Ming," Tang San said with righteousness that soared to the clouds. In a corner of the Star Dou Great Forest, Zhu Zhuqing, with Ning Rongrong’s assistance, was fighting a gem-like pangolin. Gu Rong was watching from the side. With his strength, he could naturally easily injure this ten-thousand-year soul beast heavily. However, considering tempering his disciple’s practical combat ability, he had not made a move. Generally speaking, a ten-thousand-year soul beast already had intelligence. Only an expert among Soul Emperors, or even an ordinary Soul Sage with a Martial Soul True Body, could solo it. But this disciple of his was truly extraordinary. Relying on that ghostly speed and a strength that far surpassed a power-attack-type soul master, she was forcibly suppressing this ten-thousand-year soul beast. In the end, she even used a soul bone skill to beat it to the point of being on the verge of death. "Disciple, you did very well. Looking at your peers, there are simply not many who can compare with you. Even the so-called Spirit Hall Golden Generation is just so-so." "Rongrong, go and end its life and absorb its soul ring," Gu Rong said with a hearty laugh. Ning Rongrong walked over delightedly. She didn’t take out a sharp weapon, but instead raised her small, pink fist. With one punch, boom! A punch of several thousand jin of force directly smashed this soul beast several feet into the ground. A black soul ring directly floated out. Gu Rong’s eyelids jumped as he watched. He didn’t understand why an auxiliary-type soul master had so much strength. Ning Rongrong hadn’t shown a talent for divine strength before. Is this what they mean by the pinker the clothes, the harder the punch??? Even someone as knowledgeable as him naturally wouldn’t know that there was a bug-like thing like Tom’s fitness dumbbells. "Rongrong, absorb it. I’ll protect you." "Not right! Hide behind me!" Ning Rongrong was just preparing to sit cross-legged and absorb the soul ring when she saw Gu Rong instantly flash in front of her, his nine great soul rings all blooming out. In the direction Gu Rong was looking, the lush trees suddenly and slowly parted to both sides. A giant cow’s head appeared before them, then raised its body, blotting out the sun and the sky. "King of the Forest, Sky Azure Bull Python!" Gu Rong said in a cold voice. Something that even Yu Xiaogang knew, there was no reason for their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect not to know. It was just that what made Gu Rong strange was why this Sky Azure Bull Python was looking at them with endless hatred in its eyes. "I really didn’t expect that Shen An would be so willing to give a hundred-thousand-year soul bone to you instead of absorbing it. Truly romantic," a human voice came. It was precisely Tang San. He had a look of disdain on his face. For a woman, he would even give up a hundred-thousand-year soul bone. Truly has no vision. "Da Ming, kill that annoying old man. As for these two women, leave them for now to lure Shen An over and completely avenge Er Ming." Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong looked over with surprise. "It’s actually you!" They also had not expected that Tang San, whose arm had been cut off by Shen An and was left with only one limb, would now have recovered and was even in the company of such a powerful soul beast. Gu Rong didn’t have time to marvel that Zhu Zhuqing actually had a hundred-thousand-year soul bone, but instead looked at the front with a grave expression. He felt an oppressive force from the Sky Azure Bull Python that was no less than Chen Xin’s. ’It seems that this time, to protect Rongrong and Zhuqing, it’s impossible without paying some price,’ Gu Rong thought to himself. However, he was known as the most mysterious among Titled Douluos. To just escape, he still had confidence. In an instant, everything around turned azure. Gu Rong suddenly discovered that his actions had begun to become sluggish. He was being countered! "Human, I don’t care who you are. Since you have absorbed my second brother’s bone, then you must pay the price with your life," Da Ming spoke in human language, his voice like thunder. Seeing that Da Ming was not listening to him and still wanted to kill Zhu Zhuqing, Tang San’s face was unhappy, but he did not say more. In terms of judging the situation, he was very good. "Stop fcking barking like a dog! With this old one here, you won’t harm a single one of them," Gu Rong said coldly. So what if you’re the king of the forest? Let’s just do it.* Courting death! The Sky Azure Bull Python was furious. Its Slowdown Domain was opened to its limit. At the same time, an azure thunderbolt gathered in its mouth. An azure light as thick as a water tank, containing endless destructive power, instantly burst out. Gu Rong instinctively wanted to break open space to dodge, but under the Slowdown Domain, the space had solidified. He could break into space alone, but it was impossible to take Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing with him. ’No, I can’t dodge! I can only block!’ Gu Rong shouted, "Bone Transformation Divine Dragon!" The ninth soul ring shone brightly. A huge bone dragon soared into the air, crashing towards the azure thunderbolt. Rumble! A huge airwave made the surrounding trees all fall over. "Rongrong, Zhuqing, you run quickly! I’ll block here!" Gu Rong said anxiously, then immediately transformed into his Martial Soul True Body to meet the Sky Azure Bull Python. Zhu Zhuqing nodded fiercely. A battle of this level was simply not something they could interfere in. As long as they ran out first, then with Gu Rong’s ability, it would be easy to escape. Tang San laughed heartily. "Thinking of running? You’ll have to ask me, a certain someone named Tang!" The Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track burst out. As a Soul Sage, his speed was in no way inferior to Zhu Zhuqing’s. Zhu Zhuqing’s face was extremely ugly. "Rongrong, I’ll hold him off. You run first." But before Ning Rongrong could speak, Xiao Wu had flashed over and stood before them, looking at Ning Rongrong coldly. She had no good feelings for either Ning Rongrong or Zhu Zhuqing. Or rather, she had no good feelings for anyone who was on good terms with Shen An. A bloody look appeared on Tang San’s face. "Today, not a single one of you will run away. Not just you, Shen An will also die at my hands in the future." As he spoke, endless Blue Silver Grass spread towards the two women from all directions. A trace of despair flashed in Zhu Zhuqing’s eyes. She really couldn’t figure out why this Tang San’s cultivation had improved so quickly. But she had never been one to be captured without a fight. Even if defeat was certain, she still had to fight! "Rongrong, assist me!" Zhu Zhuqing shouted, the soul rings on her body shining. She was going to fight to the death! Tang San looked over with contempt. He was a Soul Sage. Could he still be overturned by a Soul King and a Soul Ancestor?? "Blue Silver Binding!" One after another, the blood-patterned Blue Silver Grass shot towards the two women like poisonous snakes! But the next moment, a sword light flashed. All the Blue Silver Grass was turned to dust and fell to the ground. "I hear you want to kill me?" A clear voice came through the air. Besides the fighting Gu Rong and the Sky Azure Bull Python, everyone else looked up. A huge flying sword was traveling in the air. On the sword were two people, one cat, and one mouse. Tang San’s pupils shone. "Good, good, good! Heaven has a path, but you refuse to take it. Hell has no door, yet you barge in. Today is truly my good day! Shen An, your death has come!" Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, on the other hand, had looks of pleasant surprise on their faces. The one in the sky, wasn’t that the person they had been longing for day and night for these two years? It was just that soon, the faces of the two women suddenly stiffened. On the sword was also a woman in a golden palace dress. Her appearance could be said to be devastatingly beautiful. The most important thing was that she was actually tightly holding Shen An’s hand!!! The two stood side by side, like a divine couple. This made a sour feeling instinctively rise in the hearts of Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong. Tears even couldn’t help but well up in their eyes. Shen An’s perception was extremely sharp. His heart panicked. He subconsciously wanted to pull his hand out of Qian Renxue’s. Then... he couldn’t pull it away!!! Danger!
