Xiao Wu spoke just in time, stopping the Titan Giant Ape as it prepared to exert force.

Song Ye also let out a sigh of relief. It seemed reading more books really was useful.

However, the Titan Giant Ape asked Xiao Wu in confusion, "Sister Xiao Wu, do you still want to return to the Human World?"

"And who knows whether what this guy says is true or false!"

Xiao Wu looked at Song Ye with slight anticipation. After thinking for a moment, she still said, "Let him talk first."

"Er Ming, take him back to Lake of Life so he cannot escape."

The Titan Giant Ape sighed. In the end, it could only take Song Ye away.

Though Song Ye had temporarily gained safety, he still did not dare let down his guard unless he truly left this place.

After arriving at Lake of Life, the enormous Sky Azure Bull Python also crawled out of the water. Hearing the Titan Giant Ape and Xiao Wu's words, he was somewhat surprised.

Neither of the two forest lords trusted Song Ye much.

Only Xiao Wu desperately wanted to go to the Human World. Thus, after returning to Lake of Life and once Song Ye was under control, she took the initiative to ask:

"What is your name?"

Song Ye sighed. "Song Ye."

"Song Ye?"

Xiao Wu repeated it twice, then continued, "You said you can help me conceal my Soul Beast aura and return to the Human World. Is that true?"

"What method would you use?"

At this moment, the Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python remained nearby, their disdain undisguised. They very much wanted to persuade Xiao Wu otherwise.

Song Ye glanced at them and explained helplessly:

"I have read extensively and know a great deal about every place and matter in the Douluo World."

"And there is indeed an item that can conceal the Soul Beast aura on your body."

"Of course, it will not be easy, because a Titled Douluo even guards the place where that item is kept."

"A Titled Douluo?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu's expression changed instantly, and she became somewhat wary.

The Titan Giant Ape gave a muffled snort. "Aha! I knew you wanted to trick Sister Xiao Wu away!"

"You want to lure her to a Titled Douluo and claim you are helping her conceal her aura!"

"Sister Xiao Wu, humans are incomparably cunning. We should just kill him!"

"But..."

Xiao Wu still hesitated. Though it sounded suspicious, she still wanted to ask.

"Then tell me, what exactly can conceal a Soul Beast aura?"

Song Ye slowly said, "An Immortal Herb."

"In the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City, there is a Soul Beast Forest called Sunset Forest."

"In the depths of Sunset Forest lies a Treasure Land where Immortal Herbs are cultivated, called the 'Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well'!"

"It contains many Immortal Herbs. In particular, there is one called the 'Lovesick Heartbreak Red.' It is the King of Immortal Herbs and has many uses."

"As long as someone with utterly sincere feelings plucks it and keeps it by their side, the Immortal Herb's aura will conceal any aura, including a Soul Beast aura."

"However, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is guarded by a Titled Douluo called Poison Douluo. Picking the Immortal Herb also requires a test of one's feelings, so whether you can truly obtain it is uncertain."

"Poison Douluo... a test of feelings?"

Hearing this, Xiao Wu grew even more indecisive. How could such a miraculous thing exist?

Yet after carefully observing Song Ye's expression, she truly could not see any sign that he was lying. Could it be that he was telling the truth?

Still, the Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python remained suspicious.

The Sky Azure Bull Python sneered, "Kid, you are only a teenager, yet you dare claim to have read extensively?"

"Immortal Herbs? That sounds like something you made up!"

"Sister Xiao Wu, do not be so quick to believe him. Who knows whether he is telling the truth?"

Xiao Wu nodded. She still retained basic rationality and continued asking, "Then do you have any way to prove it?"

"Even if you cannot temporarily prove the Immortal Herb you mentioned, you must at least prove that you truly possess this theoretical knowledge!"

"After all, I have seen plenty of people who use theories like these to deceive others."

Naturally, Xiao Wu was referring to Yu Xiaogang. Ever since the Light Screen's sharp review exposed Yu Xiaogang, she had become highly wary of people who made a living off theory.

After hearing that, the Sky Azure Bull Python also nodded. "Exactly. Who knows whether he made up all this information?"

"Human boy, you must at least prove that you are capable of knowing something!"

Song Ye scratched his head, inwardly cursing these Soul Beasts for being hard to fool.

How am I supposed to prove myself...

After thinking for two seconds, he still decided to expose Di Tian and the others.

Song Ye coughed twice and said, "I told you, I know a great deal about all parts of Douluo. Why would I need to lie to you?"

"For example, beneath this Lake of Life, you, the Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python, are honored as the rulers of the Star Dou Great Forest. Do you think that is because you understand everything?"

"You call yourselves the King of the Forest and Emperor of the Forest, but in truth, you are merely gatekeepers outside!"

"Below Lake of Life is another special space, where truly terrifying Ferocious Beasts that once survived the 100,000 Years Heavenly Tribulation are hidden!"

"There are even top-tier Soul Beasts that have lived for hundreds of thousands of years, nearly demigods, and you two beasts know nothing of them!"

After saying that, Song Ye proudly pointed at Lake of Life, as though challenging them to go down and see for themselves.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape were utterly astonished and simply could not believe it.

"What?"

"Ferocious Beasts that survived the Heavenly Tribulation?"

"How is that possible!"

Absolute disbelief showed on both beasts' enormous faces.

Xiao Wu also frowned and murmured, "Impossible. Mom and I arrived at Lake of Life even earlier, yet we discovered nothing."

"There are only so many Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest. How could there be more hidden away?"

"Still, this is the perfect chance to verify whether this person is talking nonsense..."

"Da Ming, could you take a look?"

The Sky Azure Bull Python usually stayed in the water. He nodded in agreement and swiftly descended into the lake to investigate.

The Titan Giant Ape threatened from the side, "Human boy, if my Big Brother finds nothing unusual, just wait for death!"

But in reality—

A moment later, the Sky Azure Bull Python burst violently out of Lake of Life.

Boom!

A terrifying aura mixed with panic erupted forth, while an even more formidable presence seemed to shoot out from within.

"Not good!"

The Sky Azure Bull Python hurriedly dodged, barely ensuring his safety.

Even so, terrifying waves surged up like ocean swells, shaking the surroundings.

At this sight, both the Titan Giant Ape and Xiao Wu were horrified.

"Da Ming, what happened?" Xiao Wu asked.

The Sky Azure Bull Python did not answer directly. Instead, he stared fixedly at Song Ye and demanded, "Human boy, how did you know?"

"I have stayed in this Lake of Life for so long without noticing anything. How did you know?"

"What do you mean?" Xiao Wu continued asking. "Da Ming, is there truly something beneath the lake?"

The Sky Azure Bull Python nodded before replying, "I went down to probe just now and used my Mental Power to penetrate underground."

"But I never expected to witness such a terrifying scene. There was actually a self-contained space below, and it truly contained a great number of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts!"

"There were even quite a few powerful auras. One aura was far stronger than mine, seemingly capable of killing me with ease!"

"That aura attacked me and gave me an order, telling me to guard the outside properly. If I dared descend rashly again, I would be held accountable!!"
