"Big brother, I'm Zhu Zhuqing. Thank you for today. If it weren't for you, my sister and I would have been killed by the soul beasts."

Zhu Zhuqing cautiously approached Starry Sky, introducing herself with gratitude in her voice and a rosy face.

"Little brother, I'm little Zhuqing's older sister, Zhu Zhuyun~! Thank you for saving big sister. Do you have time to visit Star Luo City? Let big sister repay you properly~!"

Zhu Zhuyun's voice was filled with allure as she winked at Starry Sky with her watery eyes.

She looked as though she wanted to steal his heart away.

"You two little girls, Kong still has to go back to school. He doesn't have time to go out and play with you. There's no need to thank us either. Saving you was only a small effort."

Raiden Mei took hold of Starry Sky and smiled gently.

Starry Sky was disappointed. He had thought he could keep running wild outside.

"School?" Zhu Zhuyun's beautiful eyes flickered as she hurriedly asked, "Little brother Kong, where do you go to school? We have plenty of time. We'll definitely come by to repay you someday."

"Big sister, I study at the junior Soul Master Academy in Notting City. You're welcome to come visit~!"

Starry Sky exposed his whereabouts without the slightest hesitation.

That would make things more fun. Otherwise, spending all six years playing with little Tang San and Xiao Wu every day would definitely be boring.

If Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing came over to visit, there would be plenty of fun.

They had never even heard of Notting City.

Still, they could just look it up after returning.

Zhu Zhuyun was overjoyed. "Little brother Kong, then it's a deal. When big sister comes to play with you, don't run away~!"

As Zhu Zhuyun spoke, her eyes hooked onto him. The way she looked at Starry Sky seemed almost flirtatious.

Starry Sky did not feel much from it and merely nodded hard. "Sister Yun, little sister Qing, I'll wait for you at Notting Academy~!"

Raiden Mei pulled him away by one hand while he waved goodbye with the other.

"Big brother..." Zhu Zhuqing placed both hands over her chest and watched Starry Sky leave with a hopeful expression.

Starry Sky was so amazing. He looked even younger than her sister, yet he possessed such strength. She truly wanted to become someone as powerful as Starry Sky.

"Little Zhuqing, what's this? You already can't bear to part with him?" Zhu Zhuyun chuckled softly and patted Zhu Zhuqing's back.

A cat's sensitivity let her catch the scent of something unusual.

Zhu Zhuqing nodded shyly. "When can we go find him?"

"Very soon! Once you absorb that Giant-Paw Black Tiger's Soul Ring and return to Star Luo to report back to Father and Mother, we'll go find him. Without him, we really wouldn't have made it out of this forest."

Zhu Zhuyun's tone was grave.

The Star Dou Great Forest really was dangerous.

Afterward, they briefly dealt with the soul beast corpses before hurriedly leaving.

Several hours after the Zhu Clan group departed, a gray-haired old man in armor, with a fierce and imposing appearance, descended into the pool of blood with thunderous speed.

"What powerful lightning energy! Who was it? It actually made even this old man's heart tremble. I must find him! If that kind of lightning can be passed down within my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, then the day my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan suppresses every other force will come!"

He sensed the lightning attribute lingering in the air. Yet after searching several more areas of the Star Dou Great Forest, he found only faint traces of lightning energy left behind by Starry Sky.

He found no one.

Still, he refused to give up. That lightning power was simply too terrifying. If he obtained it, he could rise to the heavens in a single bound!

The person who possessed such power could not possibly be some unknown nobody. As long as he searched carefully, he would find him eventually.

Then, with a flash, he vanished from the spot and continued his desperate search.

On Starry Sky's side, he was dragged back to Notting Academy most unwillingly.

Beibei Dragon was simply too fast. After making a trip through the Star Dou Great Forest, they actually returned to Notting Academy at almost the same time as Tang San and Yu Xiaogang.

Thinking about how the plot should unfold, there was something fun happening in the woods behind the academy today.

So Starry Sky secretly slipped over. He also wanted to see what kind of Soul Ring Tang San had absorbed after going to the Soul Hunting Forest.

It seemed he had arrived at just the right time. Tang San had just stepped out to confront Boss Xiao.

He remembered that Boss Xiao's martial soul was a wolf. He was an eleventh-level, one-ring battle Soul Master.

"Kong, you're back too!"

When Xiao Wu saw Starry Sky, she quickly waved both hands at him.

Starry Sky looked confused and asked,

"What happened here?"

"Hmph! They're just a bunch of clowns! They actually wanted this Miss Xiao Wu to be their pet rabbit! Watch me turn every last one of them into pigheads today! Little San, get them!"

As Xiao Wu spoke, she shouted at Tang San. In her eyes, Tang San was a very capable thug.

Tang San's expression did not change. Forget using his martial soul to fight Boss Xiao—he could knock all these small fry down with just the Tang Sect's techniques.

But Tang San had just obtained his first Soul Ring, so of course he wanted to test his soul skill.

Boss Xiao's Soul Ring was merely white. When Tang San released his Blue Silver Grass martial soul and a yellow Soul Ring appeared around him, the expressions of the surrounding upper-year noble students froze. Some even gaped at Tang San as though they were looking at a monster.

"First soul skill, Blue Silver Entanglement!"

Tang San gave a low shout, and more than a dozen thick Blue Silver Grass vines wrapped around Boss Xiao.

Blue Silver Grass only had a few types of abilities. Tang San had absorbed the Soul Ring of a Blue Silver Grass soul beast, yet he had also obtained Blue Silver Entanglement.

"Haah!! Haah!!"

However, Boss Xiao suddenly struggled with all his might, and the small Blue Silver Grass vines were torn apart by his tremendous strength.

Tang San's expression darkened. He had not expected his soul skill to be so weak. Boss Xiao's Soul Ring was only white.

Still, Tang San understood his own strength well. His Soul Ring lit up again, and another Blue Silver Entanglement was unleashed.

His Blue Silver Entanglement consumed very little soul power.

With his current ability, he could cast it more than thirty times.

It was still useful to Tang San.

After all, it could repeatedly interfere with his enemy and thoroughly disgust them, allowing his hidden weapons to show even greater advantage.

Boss Xiao was bound by Blue Silver Grass again, and the discomfort was unbearable.

After he broke free once more, the Blue Silver Grass bound him yet again.

Tang San was not stupid. If this continued, he would definitely lose from exhaustion.

So he took out a dagger from his Storage Soul Tool, his gaze turning cold. He rapidly approached Boss Xiao and pressed the dagger to his neck.

"Don't... don't kill me!" Although Boss Xiao was the leader among the students, he was only twelve years old. He had a child's fears as well, and he completely lost his composure. If Tang San had not put the blade to his neck,

he would already have dropped to his knees.

After that, Starry Sky did nothing. He quietly watched Xiao Wu show off. Once she revealed her martial soul and Soul Ring, Boss Xiao and the others became Xiao Wu's underlings.

He had only come to see Tang San's soul skill.

It could only be said that Tang San had taken the right path by not pursuing poison.

But after Starry Sky returned to the dormitory, terrible news reached him.

He had only gone out to have a little fun, yet his wife Underworld had gone missing!!
