Surrounded by Ferocious Beasts

Surrounded by Ferocious Beasts.

Over the past few days, the Imperial Auspicious Beast had gotten along quite well with A Yin and the others, practically becoming one of them.

The auspicious beast clearly liked this place, especially when it lay beside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. It felt incredibly comfortable there.

"Awoo!"

After stretching lazily, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion reached out a paw and patted little Dugu Yan. Satisfied, she nodded and went back to sleep. The group was incredibly harmonious.

Over the past few days, Xu Xin had also successfully broken through to level 40.

"Finally. Just in time to take that little one and have a talk with the ferocious beasts."

"If things go well, I might even get a soul beast as a Soul Ring. If not, I can still run."

Xu Xin took a deep breath, not feeling that it would be too difficult.

With the Ghost Shadow Kingdom, there was no need to worry about safety. He could leave at any time.

Besides, the Silver Dragon King did not dare act too recklessly now. Someone was watching from above.

After finding A Yin and explaining the matter to her, A Yin readily agreed.

A Yin held the Three-Eyed Golden Lion while Xu Xin opened his Heavenly Eye and activated a passage to the Ghost Shadow Kingdom.

"Let's go, Sister A Yin. I'll also show you our true headquarters. Remember to put on the mask."

Xu Xin spoke softly and led A Yin into the Ghost Shadow Kingdom.

A Yin put on the mask. The moment she entered, she sensed the strangeness of this place. Blackness permeated the surroundings, making it deeply uncomfortable.

Because A Yin wore the mask, she did not feel too uncomfortable. However, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion in her arms waved her paws in disgust, as though trying to drive away the black aura.

Gently stroking the little one, A Yin slowly said, "Xu Xin, let's head out first. Once we've dealt with this little one's matter, I'll come back and take a proper look around."

Clearly, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion greatly disliked the aura here, even finding it somewhat repulsive.

Xu Xin did not mind. After summoning Ninja Soldiers to open a passage, the two arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest.

The moment the Three-Eyed Golden Lion appeared, her aura spread out at once.

"Boss, boss, the auspicious beast's aura has appeared."

"Woohoo, boss, let me redeem myself, boss!"

When the Three-Headed Crimson Demon Mastiff Crimson King sensed the auspicious beast's aura, his entire body trembled with excitement. She was not dead. The auspicious beast was not dead.

Ancestor, where did you run off to? Why did you only appear now? I've suffered so much because of you!

Woohoo!

The mighty Crimson King had been bullied to tears.

Di Tian merely snorted coldly. "Stay here and take your punishment properly."

"Bi Ji, Zi Ji, the two of you go bring the auspicious beast back."

The two women standing nearby, one dressed in emerald green and the other in purple, nodded slightly before vanishing in a flash.

The enormous auras of the two women stirred wave after wave across the Lake of Life. In the lake, a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beast curled up and trembled. On the shore, a Great Ape hunched over protectively beside a woman.

The woman was also holding a little rabbit in her arms.

If Xu Xin had been here, he would certainly have recognized them. That Great Ape was the false King of the Forest, the Titan Giant Ape; the Hundred Thousand Year transformed soul beast Ah Rou; and Xiao Wu, the future God King's wife!

Once those terrifying auras departed, the few beasts finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Aunt Rou, are there even more powerful beings deeper in this forest?" The Titan Giant Ape swayed his head as he asked softly.

Ah Rou nodded. There probably were.

She did not know for certain, but over the past few days, powerful auras had occasionally emerged from the depths of the forest. There clearly had to be.

The Titan Giant Ape nodded. It was simply too terrifying. They had better be more careful.

Meanwhile, not long after Bi Ji and Zi Ji left, they found Xu Xin's group.

The auspicious beast's aura was simply too distinctive.

The two women slowly descended before Xu Xin and A Yin.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion immediately leaped out of A Yin's arms and bared her fangs at the two women.

Bi Ji and Zi Ji were stunned. Why had she become so hostile toward them after only a few days apart?

For a moment, neither side knew how to speak.

Bi Ji and Zi Ji were utterly confused. Why was the auspicious beast siding with outsiders?

"Ahem. Sisters, this isn't the place to talk. Why don't we change locations?"

Xu Xin slowly spoke, breaking the awkward silence. Bi Ji and Zi Ji exchanged glances, then nodded. It would be better to leave this matter to Di Tian.

Leading Xu Xin and A Yin along, they soon arrived in the depths of the Lake of Life.

The moment Xu Xin and A Yin appeared, the ferocious beasts surrounded them. Di Tian, the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King; the Demon-Eyed Magic Tree, Myriad Monster King; Xiong Jun, the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear; even Scarlet King, who was still hanging there, tilted his head to look over.

"It's you! You're the one who kidnapped the auspicious beast and made me suffer so much! You brat, you deserve to die!"

Scarlet King shouted at the top of his lungs. Xu Xin looked embarrassed. It was not like he had done it on purpose.

Hearing Scarlet King's voice, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion bared her teeth and let out a series of awoos, looking as though she intended to protect Xu Xin and A Yin, even though she knew they would be fine.

They had benefited from the auspicious beast's favor. Otherwise, these ferocious beasts would not have treated Xu Xin and A Yin so kindly.

"Little one, tell me what happened." Di Tian picked up the snarling Three-Eyed Golden Lion and asked softly.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion let out a string of awoos, and before long, Di Tian understood what had happened.

More precisely, everyone present aside from Xu Xin could understand what the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was saying.

Di Tian looked A Yin over. "You're a transformed Hundred Thousand Year Blue Silver Emperor?"

"How did you conceal your aura? If the auspicious beast hadn't said so, none of us would have noticed."

Di Tian was extremely curious. Everyone here was curious as well. If the auspicious beast had not told them, they would never have realized that the woman before them was a transformed Hundred Thousand Year Blue Silver Emperor.

"Seniors, that isn't the matter at hand. What we should be discussing is the auspicious beast."

Xu Xin spoke slowly as he looked at Di Tian.

Di Tian nodded. "The auspicious beast wishes to go with you, but I cannot make that decision alone. I need to discuss it with my lord first. Please wait a moment."

Because of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Di Tian knew that these two bore no ill intentions and had treated the auspicious beast well. Moreover, the auspicious beast was protecting them, so he could not do much to them.

Not to mention that one of them was a transformed soul beast. That made it even less of a problem.

If not for the auspicious beast, they would not have been so polite to Xu Xin and A Yin.

It could not be helped. The auspicious beast was too important.

Xu Xin nodded. "Please go ahead, Senior. We'll wait here."

As soon as he finished speaking, Di Tian vanished. The Three-Eyed Golden Lion ran back into A Yin's arms.

The ferocious beasts nearby were speechless as well. It felt as though their own daughter had been lured away by some blond punk...

In the depths.

Di Tian stood respectfully before a silver giant dragon and recounted everything that had just happened.

"Pills, red and blue water, a transformed soul beast..."

"Di Tian, that red and blue water may very well be the place where the Ice Fire Dragon King fell."

"The auspicious beast may go. Send someone to protect her."

"Also, find out whether that red and blue water was caused by the Ice Fire Dragon King's death."

"If it is true, bring back the Ice Fire Dragon King's remains."

The silver giant dragon slightly opened her eyes, transmitting her divine sense into Di Tian's mind.

If it was true, then the auspicious beast would not be in any danger there. With that transformed soul beast present, and with Di Tian sending someone to protect her, there was nothing to worry about.
