Little Ancestor, You Should've Said You Didn't Know the Way!

"Sister, didn't this Star Dou Great Forest have lots of Soul Beasts? How come we haven't run into a single one?"

"Emmm, I don't know either. Father said the Star Dou Great Forest was the largest Soul Beast forest, so why are there so few?"

"Oh. Then, Sister, what do we do if I'm hungry?"

"Have Little White look for food? Didn't Father say dogs are humanity's best friends and are great at hunting?"

Deep within the silent Star Dou Great Forest, the brother and sister walked as if they were in an empty land, chatting as they went.

Little White, following behind them, wore an extremely human expression—speechless.

Oh, you two little ancestors!

Did you really think there were no Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest?

With me here, where would they dare show themselves?

Besides, even if I weren't here, you two ought to at least hide your auras.

Two Soul Douluos weren't even bothering to put on an act. Did they think those Soul Beasts were complete idiots?

Forget it. I was about to go hunting anyway. I was used to it...

Little White felt like its dog life had gone numb.

With its master's help, it had undergone endless Atavism and become a God Devouring Dog, feeding on gods—a renowned terrifying Fierce Beast.

And now?

It had become the nanny of two little ancestors.

Being a nanny would have been one thing, but they even wanted it to go hunting!

Heavens, have mercy!

It was practically about to evolve into a Million-Year Soul Beast, yet it still had to hunt.

And hadn't they agreed to go to Spirit Hall?

Why had it turned into crossing the entire Star Dou Great Forest instead?

If it weren't for its formidable strength and solid connections—

Even Titled Douluos wouldn't dare cross it like this, would they?

Though it grumbled inwardly, Little White still silently lay down before the siblings, sticking out its tongue and panting ingratiatingly.

Lin Ning crouched down familiarly and rubbed Little White's head.

"Hehe, we'll have to rely on you later, Little White."

Little White greatly enjoyed Lin Ning's touch. Lying on the ground, it silently nodded as well.

Lin An also reached out and rubbed Little White's head.

As he petted Little White, Lin An looked around. In the end, he turned to Lin Ning with some confusion.

"Sister, is Spirit Hall really this way? Why does it feel like it's all forest?"

Lin Ning's lovely brows knitted tightly as she kept surveying the nearly identical forest around them, her eyes filled with bewilderment.

"It should be this way! Father said Spirit Hall should be in the northwest!"

"We just need to travel opposite the sun! Father also said that where the sun rises is east, so northwest should be the direction where the sun sets."

Obviously!

As the older sister, Lin Ning had no sense of direction.

Little White, which had been enjoying itself just moments ago, was utterly dumbfounded upon hearing that.

What the hell!

You should've said you didn't know the way earlier!

Crossing the Star Dou Great Forest... oh, my little ancestors.

If you didn't know the way, I did! If you'd let me lead, couldn't we have gone and returned early?

Little White was numb too.

If it had known the siblings couldn't find their way, it would have led them from the start.

Though it had never been to Spirit Hall, it still knew roughly where it was.

At that moment, Little White wanted to speak up and persuade the two little ancestors.

How about we take another route?

Crossing the Star Dou Great Forest was seriously asking for death!

Recently, there was someone in the Star Dou Great Forest who was very difficult to provoke.

But when it remembered its master's order not to speak in front of the siblings, Little White could only droop its head and lie back down.

Neither Lin An nor Lin Ning noticed anything unusual about Little White.

After hearing his sister's answer, Lin An stopped tearing at the meat and looked at Lin Ning as he spoke.

"Sister, how about we leave the forest first and find someone to ask?"

"Didn't Father say the Star Dou Great Forest is the oldest Soul Beast forest, with quite a few hunting parties?"

The moment he finished speaking—

Smack!

Without another word, Lin Ning gave Lin An a sharp knock on the head. Putting on her big-sister air, she glared at him.

"You idiot, didn't Father tell us? In a Soul Beast forest, we can't trust people casually!"

"And we can't casually tell others about our family either. Enemies might come knocking."

"Unless we find someone weaker than us!"

"Oh, but what if they refuse to tell us?" Lin An pouted, rubbing the spot where a bump had formed as he asked miserably.

Lin Ning revealed her devilish side. "Tch, what's there to be afraid of? My Sixth Soul Ring is Heart Capture. We just need to find someone."

Hearing that, Lin An furrowed his brows tightly. Rarely standing firm, he looked at his sister.

"Father said you can't casually use that Soul Ring on other people!"

"Sister, if you use it carelessly, I'll tell Father!"

At those words, Lin Ning immediately reined herself in. Rarely, she did not argue, instead accepting Lin An's suggestion.

"Oh, got it. Then I'll ask you before using it?"

"If you say it's okay, I'll use it directly. Otherwise, we won't reach Spirit Hall or get to see Mother."

Lin An froze, constantly weighing Father's words against seeing Mother in his heart.

Very quickly, he leaned toward seeing Mother.

Lin An nodded and agreed to Lin Ning's request. "All right..."

Having made up her mind, Lin Ning patted Little White on the head.

"Little White, take us to find something to eat first!"

Hearing that, Little White stood up helplessly. It would find the two little ancestors something to eat, and incidentally lead them out through the outer region.

Suddenly!

A burst of noisy commotion sounded beside them.

Upon hearing it, Lin Ning and Lin An exchanged a glance.

"People!"

The next moment, Lin Ning's figure flashed as she took off first. Lin An scooped up Little White and followed with a Flash Step.

In the blink of an eye, two streaks of light descended several hundred meters away.

After looking around, they discovered several people besieging a Ten-Thousand Year Mystic Gold Vicious Wolf.

The Mystic Gold Vicious Wolf was quite powerful.

Even while besieged by several people, it had not fallen into a disadvantage. It even looked as though it was about to kill one of them in return.

Beside them stood a man playing with a flower. His skin was as tender as a baby's, and his bewitchingly beautiful face gave off a peculiar feeling.

Lin Ning saw the man as well and could not help frowning.

"Tch, where did this sissy come from? He looks pretty hard to deal with."

However...

While Lin Ning was focused on the sissy, Lin An stared fixedly at the Mystic Gold Vicious Wolf, drool already running from his mouth.

"Sister, Mystic Gold Vicious Wolf meat is delicious!!"

"It's in Father's cookbook!! There's even a recipe!!"

"Directly shatter its Spirit Ring, and the Spirit Ring's energy will nourish its meat. It's a great tonic!"

Lin An was the temporary chef of their household.

If he said so, then it was naturally right.

Lin Ning's eyes immediately lit up. She grabbed Lin An and swiftly dived down.

"Get the pot ready!"

"I'll steal this wolf!"
