Creepy Old Men Get Beaten to Death!

Still growing?

You could actually say that?

Hu Liena and Chrysanthemum Douluo were both completely dumbfounded.

Sure, you were six years old!

Sure, you really were very young.

But!

Was it really appropriate for a Soul Ancestor (Soul Douluo) to say he was still growing?

All of a sudden, Hu Liena felt that she would never want children for the rest of her life.

How the hell was she supposed to raise one?

The moment he opened his mouth, he wanted to eat a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

Damn it, she could not even beat one herself. Sigh...

As for whether it was Lin Ning and Lin An's fault?

What a joke!

These two adorable children were so cute. How could they possibly be wrong!

If she could not hunt a Golden Sculpture for him, it was only because she was not strong enough!

Yes! Such adorable children could not possibly be wrong!

Just as Hu Liena's heart was filled with helplessness, Lin Ning considerately walked over to her and took the biscuits away.

"Sister, if you can't get one, could you help me watch Little White and my little brother?"

"You just need to help set up the pot. I'll go catch one—it won't take long!"

Hu Liena wept inwardly and could only nod helplessly.

"Got it. Sister will keep a good eye on them."

She!

One of Spirit Hall's Golden Generation!

She could not even defeat something a child wanted to eat!

Forget not being able to beat it—she even had to let a six-year-old child hunt it for her to eat.

And now, when it came to cooking, all she could do was be the one setting up the pot. How touching.

Hu Liena did not intend to have Chrysanthemum Douluo go with her either.

After all...

The Soul Hunting Forest was not like the Star Dou Great Forest.

The Soul Hunting Forest was merely a soul beast forest maintained by the empire.

High-level soul beasts could not possibly be kept in captivity. The Soul Hunting Forest only contained low-level soul beasts.

In a place like this, there was no need to worry too much with Lin Ning's strength.

With that in mind, Hu Liena went to set up the pot without concern.

Having watched Lin An do it last time, Hu Liena skillfully picked up the pot and began fiddling with it.

However...

Not long after Hu Liena picked up the pot.

A scorching Soul Power Fluctuation suddenly erupted, clearly having just surpassed level forty.

Yet neither Lin An nor Little White made any move. Instead, Hu Liena and Chrysanthemum Douluo both stopped what they were doing at the same time.

Something had happened!

Hu Liena and Chrysanthemum Douluo were both very familiar with this Soul Power Fluctuation.

It belonged to none other than Yan, another member of the Golden Generation!

Only his Flame Lord martial soul could produce such scorching soul power fluctuations.

Most importantly!

Hu Liena remembered that today seemed to be Yan's turn to patrol the Soul Hunting Forest.

In other words!

That soul power belonged to Yan!

And Lin Ning had only tested her strength and registered as a soul master. She had not obtained authorization to enter the Soul Hunting Forest and hunt.

In other words, Lin Ning entering the Soul Hunting Forest to hunt counted as poaching!

Holy shit!

Having confirmed the situation.

Neither Lin Ning nor Chrysanthemum Douluo had the time to deal with any of that.

They both abruptly set down the pots and bowls in their hands and used Flash Step to leave the scene.

As the two vanished in an instant, the usually laid-back Lin An glanced at the direction they had left in with some confusion, then looked at Little White beside him.

"Little White, what do you think they went to do?"

"Isn't it just a Soul Ancestor? Sister could handle that easily."

Little White gave a human-like shrug as well, indicating that he had no idea.

At most, this Soul Hunting Forest only had thousand-year Soul Beasts. Those kids were merely Soul Ancestors, so there really was no need to go over there.

Meanwhile.

A burly man with fiery red hair, dark red eyes, and flame-like patterns covering his body stared directly at Lin Ning and roared.

"Who exactly are you?! Entering this Soul Hunting Forest without a warrant makes you a poacher. You must be taken back!!"

Lin Ning watched the thousand-year Soul Beast that had already slipped away, her brows knitting slightly as she retorted with a serious little face, "I just wanted to find something to eat. Don't stop me! My little brother is hungry!!"

As she spoke, Lin Ning deliberately waved her tiny fist as a threat.

Yan snorted disdainfully, so furious that he laughed.

"Hah, you came all the way into the depths of this Soul Hunting Forest just to look for food? Do you take me for an idiot with a lie like that?!"

With that, Yan looked at the Patrol Group behind him and waved his large hand.

"Take her down! Bring her back to Spirit Hall!"

The members of the Patrol Group stared in astonishment.

This was ridiculous!

Facing such an adorable little girl, they truly found it hard to make a move.

However, before the rules of Spirit Hall, they still gritted their teeth and summoned their martial souls.

Seeing a group of grown men closing in around her, Lin Ning frowned and put on an especially fierce expression.

"When I'm outside alone, Father said that if creepy uncles or any other men come close without permission, I should beat them all to death!"

As soon as she finished speaking, eight Black Jade Spider Legs, black with streaks of white, appeared behind Lin Ning, while a small sword appeared in her hand.

A Black Soul Ring also flashed around her body as she activated her first Soul Ring skill.

"Thorn Spider Kill!!"

The moment her words fell, Lin Ning's eight thorn-covered spider legs shot toward the people closing in on her from all directions with lightning speed.

Slap! Slap! Slap!

The eight thorn-covered spider legs instantly bound all the incoming people.

The barbed thorns pierced directly through the Soul Masters' skin, injecting venom into their bodies.

In the blink of an eye, eight Soul Masters were knocked to the ground, their fates unknown.

In an instant!

The Soul Masters who had been charging toward Lin Ning all paled drastically.

Even Yan's expression darkened.

A ten-thousand-year Black Soul Ring!

In their understanding, anyone capable of absorbing a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring had to be at least a Soul Ancestor.

In other words, this six-year-old little girl before them was a Soul Ancestor!

What kind of hellish joke was this?!

If she was a Soul Ancestor, then what did that make Yan, one of the Golden Generation?

Dog shit?

However, with a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring before him—

It was simple: even he, one of the Golden Generation, had only absorbed purple Soul Rings.

Yan no longer dared to underestimate her in the slightest. Scorching dark red flames suddenly erupted from his body.

At the same time, under the effects of his first two Soul Rings, his body rapidly swelled.

The clothes on his upper body instantly tore apart, Yan's muscles bulging like granite. In only a moment, his body had expanded to over three meters tall.

After setting up his defenses, Yan spread his hands and smashed them fiercely into the ground. The fourth Soul Ring around his body instantly erupted.

The air suddenly became viscous. Distorted ripples and scorching currents slowed everyone as though they had stepped into a swamp. Bubbles of churning magma surged up from beneath the ground and swept toward Lin Ning.

Seeing this, Lin Ning frowned and let out a cold snort. A second Black Soul Ring appeared around her body.

In an instant, the eight spider legs behind Lin Ning turned blood-red, and the terrifying aura of deadly poison dyed even the air crimson.

"Death Brand Poison!"

At that very moment, a cry of alarm rang out beside everyone's ears.

"Stop!"
