Ning Rongrong's Crisis—How Can You Even Be Afraid of Little Ants?! (Please Recommend, Please Urge More Updates!)

"No! The people who killed Sect Master Hu Yan Zhen just now absolutely weren't ordinary people from that world. They had to be the strongest experts in that world!"

"It's just that world is far too primitive and barbaric. Even its strongest experts don't have clothes like the experts of our Douluo Continent!"

"That's right! It must be so!"

Outside Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

After witnessing Hu Yan Zhen's tragic death, Yu Xiaogang's face turned deathly pale. His hands clenched into fists as he staggered back several steps, utterly unable to believe what he had seen.

But very quickly, Yu Xiaogang seemed to find an answer again. His eyes reddened, and he panted heavily as he roared in fury, forcibly trying to convince himself.

Otherwise, if an eighty-ninth-level Soul Douluo was no better than a lowly commoner in that world—

Then how could he, Yu Xiaogang, possibly find an opportunity for Martial Soul Evolution after going there?

Yu Xiaogang simply could not accept such a reality!

"Teacher is right!"

"Although the Heavenly Screen said that the first chosen ones descended into the weakest and most remote part of that world."

"But even the most remote and weakest places could still have powerful experts living in seclusion!"

Tang San's face was pale, but he also forced himself to calm down and chimed in.

Hearing this, Flender thought it over and felt that it was not without reason. He, too, recovered from his fear.

After all, he knew that Tang San's father, Tang Hao, was an ultimate expert living in seclusion in a remote place!

Within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Seeing how absurdly Hu Yan Zhen had died, Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo could not help but feel utterly despairing.

"No! Even the most remote and weakest places in this world are this dangerous?"

"Then what will happen to Rongrong?!"

At that moment, above the Heavenly Screen.

Within Ning Rongrong's livestream.

After descending into the Doupo World, Ning Rongrong cried for quite a while before finally stopping.

Because she realized that crying was completely useless.

It could not change her current predicament at all.

Ning Rongrong could only pull herself together. Her beautiful eyes were red, and her pearly teeth bit down on her lower lip as she activated all her Soul Power and struggled to rise from the ground.

After surveying her surroundings, she chose a direction and began moving forward.

As she walked through the woods strewn with dead branches and fallen leaves,

Ning Rongrong moved with exceptional caution, terribly nervous that some terrifying beast might suddenly leap out and devour her in one bite.

But suddenly, in the woods not far ahead, Ning Rongrong spotted a swarm of grayish-brown ants, each roughly the size of a baby's fist.

"No! They're the ants that ate Teacher Qin Ming!"

Deep terror filled Ning Rongrong's large eyes, and she turned to flee.

As though they had noticed Ning Rongrong, the ant swarm surged after her like a tide.

Seeing this, Ning Rongrong was terrified. She hurriedly summoned her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul and used a boosting soul skill on herself to increase her speed.

At the same time, she began crying out for help.

"Help! Someone, please save me!"

"Waaah, I'm going to be eaten by ants!"

Ning Rongrong cried as she ran for her life, shouting desperately for help.

"Rongrong!"

On Douluo Continent.

Seeing Ning Rongrong face such a life-or-death crisis, whether it was Oscar at Shrek Academy or Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, all of them clenched their fists so tightly their eyes nearly split.

They wished they could rush into the livestream and save Ning Rongrong at once.

But unfortunately, they simply could not.

And because of the Doupo World's gravity, Ning Rongrong's speed was greatly affected. She could not run fast at all.

Just as the ant swarm was about to catch up to Ning Rongrong,

A mighty Mercenary Group escorting a luxurious carriage slowly approached from not far away.

They heard Ning Rongrong's crying and pleas for help.

The carriage curtain was suddenly pulled aside, and a soft-featured, beautiful young woman in a long green dress curiously poked her head out.

"Huh? It sounds like someone is calling for help!"

Following the sound, Qing Tan looked over. When she saw Ning Rongrong being chased by the ant swarm, she could not help but freeze for a moment.

"What's going on? How could someone be chased by Rock Ants?!"

"You all, go save her."

Qing Tan instructed one of the accompanying Mercenaries.

"Yes, Miss Qing Tan!"

One Mercenary answered respectfully. Drawing a weapon from his waist and circulating his Dou Qi, he quickly charged toward Ning Rongrong.

"Flame Slash!"

With a loud roar, the Mercenary leaped into the air and swiftly swung his broadsword at the Rock Ant swarm. Blades of flaming Dou Qi shot forth one after another, continuously bombarding the swarm and erupting in explosions.

In an instant, more than half the Rock Ant swarm was blasted to death.

Realizing they had encountered an irresistible enemy, the Rock Ant swarm immediately scattered like birds and beasts, turning to flee.

"Miss, can you still walk?"

Seeing Ning Rongrong collapsed on the ground, her pretty face full of fear and tears still lingering in her eyes, the Mercenary asked politely.

Though he was very puzzled as to why Ning Rongrong was afraid of such a tiny swarm of ants.

Judging by her clothing, Ning Rongrong should not have been an ordinary person.

Moreover, ever since the great Human Emperor Ye Xuan unified the Dou Qi Continent ten thousand years ago,

He had built Zhou Tian Star Towers throughout the continent, drawing in and transforming Zhou Tian Star Power and Chaos Qi, making the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy of the Dou Qi Continent incredibly dense.

Even ordinary people were born with Dou Qi in their bodies. As long as they cultivated properly, breaking through to become a Dou Zhe was easy.

The only difference was what rank of Dou Qi Vortex they could condense.

And even at the Dou Qi stage, as long as one learned Dou Qi Body Protection, they could completely ignore the attacks of Zero-Rank Magic Beasts like Rock Ants. There should have been no reason to fear them at all.

"Thank you. I... I can still walk!"

Realizing that she had finally survived, Ning Rongrong looked at the Mercenary with immense gratitude and hurriedly struggled to her feet.

"Then please follow me."

Led by the Mercenary,

Ning Rongrong passed through the woods and walked all the way toward the Mercenary Group, eventually arriving before the luxurious carriage.

"Miss Qing Tan, I've rescued this young lady!"

"You've worked hard!"

At that moment, Qing Tan pulled back the curtain. After speaking to the Mercenary, she looked Ning Rongrong over curiously with her bright eyes on that soft and lovely face, then asked,

"What's your name? How did you end up being chased by ants like that?"

"Ants?"

Hearing Qing Tan's words, Ning Rongrong froze, unable to believe it.

"Weren't the things chasing me just now very powerful Fierce Beasts?"

Thinking of how even Teacher Qin Ming, a Soul Emperor, had been gnawed into scraps, Ning Rongrong simply could not believe that the Rock Ants chasing her had merely been ordinary ants!

"Fierce Beasts?"

Hearing this, Qing Tan could not help but laugh.

"You're really interesting!"

"How could the ones chasing you have been Fierce Beasts? They're just the most ordinary ants on our Dou Qi Continent!"

"Although ever since the great Emperor Ye Xuan unified the Dou Qi Continent, founded the Human Emperor Hall, and built Zhou Tian Star Towers across the continent, there have no longer been ordinary wild animals on the Dou Qi Continent."

"Even ants and little fish have transformed into Magic Beasts under the nourishment of dense Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, but they are still the weakest beings on the continent."

"On our Dou Qi Continent, even seven- or eight-year-old children can stomp on them like firecrackers for fun. Yet you were chased into such a state by these little ants."

What?!

On Douluo Continent.

When they learned that the Rock Ant swarm that had gnawed Qin Ming to death was considered nothing more than the most ordinary and weakest kind of ant in the Doupo World,

Countless people's expressions changed drastically. Their hearts filled with despair and disbelief, and they collapsed to their knees.

What kind of world was this Doupo World?!

How could even ordinary ants be so terrifying?!
