After all, those headlights could grow bigger the more they were kneaded.

An hour later, Wen Xuan and Xiao Wu left the academy together.

Looking at the glaring sunlight overhead, Wen Xuan shook his head.

"See? I told you the sun would be blazing if we got up late. I told you not to be so greedy earlier."

As he spoke, Wen Xuan gave Xiao Wu's buttocks a dissatisfied slap.

Xiao Wu, having been slapped, spoke in a resentful tone.

"What do you mean? It was obviously you. I was sleeping perfectly well, but you insisted on provoking me. And... it was clearly you, Xiao Xuan, who forced me to eat it."

As she spoke of this, Xiao Wu recalled what had happened earlier.

Wen Xuan had been playing with her headlights and woke her up, causing the two of them to lose control first thing in the morning.

In the end, Wen Xuan had even claimed that the Milk he shot out was highly nutritious, that drinking it would help her body grow, and that it could nourish her skin and enhance her complexion.

Although Xiao Wu had been extremely reluctant, she had no choice but to yield beneath Wen Xuan's lewd coercion. After all, every time she drank it, she could not eat any carrots afterward.

"Wasn't that for your own good?"

"Look at how much your figure has changed compared to not long ago."

As he spoke, Wen Xuan poked the headlights in front of him with his fingertip.

Xiao Wu was left speechless by that.

After all, she had been developing rather quickly lately. She did not know why, but after merely doing some lovers' things with Wen Xuan, her delicate body had developed at an incredible speed. She was nearly catching up to the female teachers at the academy.

Wen Xuan and Xiao Wu found a carriage along the way and headed for the Star Dou Great Forest.

Several days passed in a flash. After leaving the carriage, Wen Xuan and Xiao Wu entered the Star Dou Great Forest. Not wanting to draw too much attention, they entered the forest through a particularly remote area.

Meanwhile, in the core region.

A gigantic ape nearly several dozen meters tall lay on the ground, sleeping and snoring.

It was Er Ming, the Titan Giant Ape.

In the lake nearby, there was also a massive figure with the head of an ox and the body of a serpent.

Because it was so enormous, the Sky Azure Bull Python remained concealed in the water.

This place could not only increase cultivation speed, but was also a good place to settle down.

Suddenly, Er Ming, who had been sound asleep, abruptly opened his mountain-sized eyes.

"Big Brother... it seems Sister Xiao Wu and Xiao Xuan are back."

Hearing this, the Sky Azure Bull Python in the lake reacted as well, lifting its enormous serpentine body out of the water.

It looked toward the source of that familiar aura.

"It is Xiao Wu and Xiao Xuan. Er Ming, hurry and go receive them."

Er Ming did not hesitate. With one leap, he crossed several dozen, nearly a hundred meters.

He quickly brought Wen Xuan and Xiao Wu back.

When Er Ming and Da Ming met Wen Xuan and Xiao Wu again, they were both immensely excited.

After all, there was no one here for them to talk to. Usually, all they did was cultivate, living an almost entirely dull and tedious life.

Wen Xuan could at least tell them stories, such as a love story between a man and a white snake.

The First Soul Ring

"Xiao Xuan, Sister Xiao Wu, you're finally back! You have no idea... Er Ming talks about you every day."

When he saw Wen Xuan and Sister Xiao Wu, a trace of human-like joy actually appeared on the Sky Azure Bull Python's face.

"Sister Xiao Wu, Xiao Xuan, don't listen to Da Ming's nonsense. He's clearly the one who misses you the most, yet he insists on using me as an excuse."

Er Ming was rather honest, and he immediately exposed Da Ming's true feelings.

"Alright, alright. Now isn't the time to catch up. We came back this time because Xiao Xuan needs to obtain a suitable Soul Ring. We're still attending the academy."

Xiao Wu interrupted the bickering between the two Soul Beasts.

"This time, I'd like Da Ming and Er Ming to help me hunt a suitable hundred-year Soul Beast."

Wen Xuan stepped forward and looked at Da Ming and Er Ming.

After all, Da Ming and Er Ming certainly knew far more about Soul Beasts.

"Oh!"

Upon hearing why Xiao Wu and Wen Xuan had returned, Da Ming turned his gaze toward Wen Xuan.

At the same time, Er Ming lowered his enormous head and looked at Wen Xuan with a complicated expression.

In the end, Er Ming and Da Ming exchanged a look and communicated with each other.

"Alright. Then what is your Martial Soul, Xiao Xuan? Let me see it, so Er Ming can find one for you."

"My Martial Soul is the same as Xiao Wu's, except it has mutated a little."

As Wen Xuan spoke, he activated his Martial Soul.

The moment Wen Xuan's Martial Soul appeared, a domain rapidly spread outward from him.

Xiao Wu, who was leaning against Wen Xuan nearby, suddenly had pink hearts appear in her eyes.

Her eyes fixed tightly on Wen Xuan, filled with nothing but him, while her body coyly pressed closer to him.

Because Xiao Wu's Soul Power was too low, she could not resist Wen Xuan's domain at all. Her mind remained clear, but she felt an indescribable love for Wen Xuan.

Of course, much of that was because Xiao Wu had already been Wen Xuan's woman.

"My Martial Soul comes with a domain."

Wen Xuan held Xiao Wu, who had already been controlled by the domain, tightly in his arms to prevent her from doing anything.

After all, his domain could amplify others' feelings for him.

Upon hearing Wen Xuan's explanation, the nearby Titan Giant Ape only felt briefly dazed.

But it lasted only an instant, not even a second.

After all, he was already a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. He was not someone a Level Ten Soul Master without a Soul Ring like Wen Xuan could control.

"Xiao Xuan, this domain of yours is quite impressive. It actually managed to affect even me for a moment."

Seeing that Wen Xuan had a pair of blue, translucent Rabbit Ears just like Xiao Wu's above his head, the Titan Giant Ape found it rather novel.

When the Sky Azure Bull Python saw Wen Xuan's Martial Soul, it was dumbfounded. Since when could a Soft Bone Rabbit mutate into something like this?

"If your Martial Soul is mutated and comes with a domain, then you should probably follow a control path focused on confusing the mind."

Although Da Ming did not study Martial Souls much, he had killed no shortage of human Soul Masters who had entered the core region over the years.

Gradually, he had learned quite a bit about Martial Souls.

"You know more than I do. What kind of Soul Beast do you think would suit me as a Soul Ring?" Seeing that Da Ming seemed extremely knowledgeable, perhaps even more knowledgeable than that damned Master, Wen Xuan could not help asking him.

There was even a hint of anticipation in his gaze toward Da Ming.

Da Ming only pondered for a moment before giving Wen Xuan a rather good suggestion.

"There are quite a few Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Forest that would suit you, but... I think the most suitable would be the Pink Lady."

"The Pink Lady..." Wen Xuan murmured softly.

Thinking of the Pink Lady's description in the original story, Wen Xuan curled his lips into a smile.

"Alright, I'll listen to Da Ming. I want this Pink Lady."

Not wanting Xiao Wu to keep rubbing against him in his arms, Wen Xuan immediately withdrew his Martial Soul.

As Wen Xuan's Rabbit Ears vanished, the domain surrounding them naturally disappeared as well.

Xiao Wu, who had been moving restlessly in Wen Xuan's arms, instantly regained clarity in her eyes.

When she realized that she had behaved like that in Wen Xuan's arms in front of Da Ming and Er Ming, she lowered her head and shoved Wen Xuan away.

"You two talk first. I'll go back to the house and have a look, clean up a little."

Without giving Da Ming or Er Ming a chance to speak, Xiao Wu headed toward the bamboo house.

Xiao Wu's already rosy cheeks turned incomparably pink from embarrassment.

Wen Xuan did not stop Xiao Wu from leaving.

She was his. She could not run away.

And so, after Wen Xuan settled on the Soul Beast, Er Ming found him a three-hundred-year Pink Lady in less than half an hour.

Watching Er Ming uproot a plant resembling the Overlord Flower from his previous life and toss it in front of him along with the soil, Wen Xuan's mouth twitched.

It had not looked that large in the animation, but with its roots and clump of earth, it was actually several meters long.

"I've suppressed it for you. This Pink Lady won't resist anymore."

The Titan Giant Ape's immense Soul Beast pressure had nearly flattened the Pink Lady. If he had not restrained himself with all his might, Er Ming's pressure alone could have crushed this three-hundred-year Pink Lady to death.

"Alright~"

Wen Xuan did not stand on ceremony. He raised his hand, and in the next moment, specks of starlight rapidly appeared around his chest.

Before long, the stars connected, and Lightning Magic appeared in Wen Xuan's hand.

This sight left the Titan Giant Ape beside him dumbfounded.

What was this, if not a soul skill or something at the level of a soul bone?

It could actually release lightning, and as Wen Xuan's stars connected—

A small cluster of thunderclouds appeared over this area, as though a Lightning Tribulation had descended.

It frightened Er Ming badly.

"Xiao Xuan, what is that? Why does it feel different from a soul skill?"

As he spoke, Er Ming leaped backward, escaping the range of the thunderclouds.

"It's one of my innate soul skills, I suppose. Just treat it as a soul bone skill."

Wen Xuan did not want to explain too much. The more he explained, the less clear it would become.

After speaking, Wen Xuan turned his gaze toward the Pink Lady, which was barely clinging to life on the ground.

"Thunder Seal, Rage Strike." As Wen Xuan spoke, a bolt of purple lightning struck down from the sky.

Then, bolt after bolt descended upon the Pink Lady below.

These days, aside from flirting with Xiao Wu, Wen Xuan spent his time cultivating his limited Lightning Magic.

He had now reached the third level of the beginner stage of Lightning Magic.

Watching the lightning strike ahead, the Titan Giant Ape felt as though he himself were being baptized by a Lightning Tribulation.

The Titan Giant Ape did not ask any more questions about Wen Xuan's abilities. Wen Xuan was one of their own, after all, and both he and Da Ming trusted his character.

Before long, the lightning dissipated. The ground where the Pink Lady had been was now completely blackened.

Several deep pits surrounded it.

A yellow Soul Ring floated within one of the pits.

"Er Ming, protect me while I absorb the Soul Ring."

"Go ahead, go ahead. Don't worry. With me here, no Soul Master or anyone else will dare approach. Absorb it without worry."

Charm Soul Skill

After Er Ming spoke, he did not waste any time. He released his aura, making the many Soul Masters and Soul Beasts nearby who wanted to investigate the disturbance too afraid to approach.

After doing all that, the Titan Giant Ape turned his gaze toward Wen Xuan, who was already absorbing the Soul Ring.

Who knew how many unknown secrets Xiao Xuan carried? Sigh... he would discuss it with Da Ming once he returned.

As he pondered, Er Ming sat beside Wen Xuan and guarded him.

At the same time, Yu Xiao Gang brought a gloomy-faced Tang San to the Soul Beast forest raised by the Empire.
