Encountering a Soul Beast Seeking Help on the Road; Saving the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor

Li Changsheng had just finished speaking and was about to turn around and head to the cabin to rest when he suddenly turned back to look at the sea.

"Heh, this little fellow actually didn't run away. It even swam over here. Interesting." Li Changsheng said playfully.

On the violently surging sea, a huge head suddenly emerged. Its two eyes were like lanterns, extremely conspicuous against the pitch-black night sky.

However, this soul beast did not continue attacking. Instead, it stared straight at the Zhenzhu Hao. Of course, rather than saying it was looking at the ship, it would be more accurate to say it was looking at Li Changsheng standing at the bow.

Spiritual Power surged throughout Li Changsheng's body as he probed toward the soul beast. Only after seeing it clearly did he realize that it was a Dragon Soul Beast infinitely close to a hundred thousand years old.

However powerful a pressure Li Changsheng released to intimidate the sea dragon soul beast, it still did not leave. It merely stared blankly at Li Changsheng.

Just as Li Changsheng was feeling deeply puzzled, a childish girl's voice suddenly came from within.

"Big Brother Soul Master, please save my mother. I beg you, please save my mother."

Li Changsheng froze when he heard the voice. He then realized that this soul beast was asking him for help. Puzzled, he transmitted his voice through Soul Power. "Little fellow, what happened?"

After hearing Li Changsheng reply, the Dragon Soul Beast told him everything that had happened.

Its mother was a seven-hundred-thousand-year-old Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor. Recently, she had obtained some True Dragon Essence from somewhere. Somehow, news of it had been discovered by the million-year-old Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, and this morning, her mother had suddenly been attacked by him.

Although her mother had reacted quickly and engaged the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King in a battle to the death, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was, after all, a soul beast nearing a million years old. His strength was far beyond what the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor, who was only seven hundred thousand years old, could match. They had barely exchanged blows when—

Her mother had been caught off guard and injured by the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. Knowing that she was no match for him, her mother had secretly handed the True Dragon Essence to her and told her to leave immediately in a certain direction without looking back.

Then, she had attacked the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King to draw him away and buy her more time to escape. The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's target was the drop of True Dragon Essence, so he had not paid any attention to her, believing that it was still on the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor. Thus, he had ignored her escape and focused entirely on chasing the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor, allowing her to flee with her life.

Just now, she had been hiding in the deep sea here when she saw Li Changsheng's ship and tried to drive them away. However, after being intimidated by Li Changsheng, she discovered that his pressure was no weaker than the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's. She also sensed a trace of auspicious aura from Li Changsheng, which was why she had risked asking him for help.

After learning the whole story, Li Changsheng heard that there was a trace of auspicious aura on him, and a gluttonous little golden-furred creature suddenly surfaced in his mind—the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. He figured that after spending too much time with it, he had picked up a trace of the Auspicious Beast's aura.

Once he understood, Li Changsheng did not help her directly as she had imagined. Instead, he smiled teasingly. "It's true that I'm not afraid of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, but why should I help you? Offending him for no reason isn't a good idea. It would bring a hundred harms and no benefits."

Hearing this, the Dragon Soul Beast hurriedly replied, "Wah... As long as you can save my mother, I'll be your beast from now on. Whatever you want me to do, I'll do it. I can even sacrifice myself for you. Please, please save my mother."

Hearing this, Li Changsheng knew that he had gone too far with his intimidation, so he put on an expression of reluctance.

"All right, all right. I'll help you." After saying this, Li Changsheng flew onto the head of the Dragon Soul Beast. He then turned back and called to Ye Han Yue, "Han Yue, Master will be back soon. We'll meet on that island."

After saying this, he rode the Dragon Soul Beast away, slowly disappearing from everyone's sight.

"By the way, what's your name, little fellow?" Li Changsheng suddenly asked the Dragon Soul Beast along the way.

"My name is Ali. My mother gave me this name."

If you think this book is good and want to avoid losing it next time, please remember to add it to your bookshelf.

"Big Brother Soul Master, do you think Mother will be all right? I only have Mother left now."

"Wah..."

The next morning.

The sea was calm, but the surrounding silence was frightening. There were no flying soul beasts in the sky, and there were none in the sea either. Suddenly, two soul beasts rapidly swam over from the distance, chasing each other one after the other. Both soul beasts radiated terrifying auras, but compared to the dragon-type soul beast in front, the whale-type soul beast behind had an even more terrifying and powerful aura.

"Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor, give up. Hand that drop of essence over to me. Perhaps if I'm in a good mood, I won't devour you. I might even take you as my concubine." The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King laughed.

"Bastard! Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, keep dreaming! Even if I die, I'll never give you the True Dragon Essence. I've already hidden it away. You'll never find it. You're guilty of countless sins. Who knows how many sea soul beasts you've devoured over the years? You'll definitely suffer retribution. You won't die a good death!" the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor roared furiously.

"Hmph, stubborn fool." The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King suddenly gathered energy in his mouth and fired a terrifying energy beam at the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor. She was badly injured by the sudden attack.

"I'll give you one last chance. Tell me where you hid the True Dragon Essence. Otherwise, I'll devour you until not even your corpse remains, then go after that little soul beast who escaped yesterday." The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King looked at the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor as he spoke.

"Dream on. No matter what, I'll never tell you where I hid it." The Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor spoke furiously.

"Then go to hell." The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King gathered energy in his mouth once more and attacked the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor.

Seeing the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King gather energy and attack her again, the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor thought sorrowfully, "Ali, once Mother is gone, you'll have to take care of yourself. Take the True Dragon Essence and leave this place far behind. Live well, and never think about avenging me."

Just as the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King finished gathering energy and was about to fire at the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor, a powerful sword aura suddenly slashed over from the distance.

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King had no choice but to turn his attack and fire the energy beam at the sword aura.

"Boom!"

The sword aura and energy beam collided, producing a massive explosion.

"Who dares interfere with this king's business?" the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King roared angrily.

"Me!" Li Changsheng slowly approached while riding Ali.

"Human, I advise you not to interfere in this matter." Seeing that Li Changsheng had not revealed the slightest trace of aura, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King did not let down his guard after witnessing that powerful sword aura. He merely tried to intimidate Li Changsheng, hoping that he would leave.

"Ah, big-headed fish, I don't want to interfere either. But who can blame me for having promised this little fellow? As a person, one must keep one's word. Don't you agree?"

"Oh, right. You're not a person. You're a soul beast."

Li Changsheng paid no attention to the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's intimidation and merely toyed with him.

"Arrogant!"
