"Oh!"
Hearing Ah Rou stop him, Shi Hao suppressed the excitement in his heart. After obediently responding, he also obediently stopped roughing up the Titan Giant Ape.
After letting go of the Titan Giant Ape's beam-thick ankle, Shi Hao immediately jumped aside, his little face full of satisfaction as he patted his fair, tender hands.
Seeing the smile on Shi Hao's little face, Ah Rou could not help but find it amusing, and she understood.
Though Shi Hao was a child, he had lived in the Great Wilderness, a world fraught with danger and intense struggles for survival.
That had made him unlike ordinary children, who enjoyed playing around.
Instead, like Er Ming, he was a battle maniac who liked—even enjoyed—fighting!
On the other side, after Shi Hao threw it away, the Titan Giant Ape's enormous body crashed down onto the ground again, flattening a large swath of trees with a bang!
But after lying on the ground for a while, the Titan Giant Ape's muddled mind finally cleared.
After struggling to climb back to its feet and looking at Shi Hao again, the Titan Giant Ape's eyes actually revealed a trace of fear this time.
It could not help it! Just now, it had been completely crushed in Shi Hao's hands.
If Ah Rou had not stopped him, Shi Hao probably would have smashed it to death!
That feeling of being wildly slammed against the ground, its entire body wracked with pain, its head dizzy and aching from the blows—it was simply unbearable, leaving it unable to live or die!
In any case, Titan Giant Ape Er Ming was now afraid of Shi Hao.
This human child was definitely not from their world. He had to come from an incomparably powerful world, perhaps even stronger than the legendary God Realm!
It was certain of it!
"Er Ming, how was it? Do you still think Xiao Hao was sent here to deliberately get close to me, with ulterior motives?"
Seeing Titan Giant Ape Er Ming regain his senses, baring his teeth as he rubbed his head and slowly pushed himself up from the ground with his other hand, Ah Rou asked with an amused smile.
"No, no, no! Little Brother Shi Hao is so strong. I, Er Ming, am convinced!"
The moment he heard Ah Rou, Titan Giant Ape Er Ming jolted. He hurriedly lowered the large hand rubbing his faintly aching head, pounded his chest hard, and said in a deep, muffled voice that he was thoroughly convinced.
"Little Brother Shi Hao is so young, yet he already has the strength to beat me, Er Ming, into complete submission. How could anyone in this world possibly command Little Brother Shi Hao?"
"I believe what Xiao Wu said now. Little Brother Shi Hao definitely came from another world, and it is a world far stronger than our Douluo Continent."
"I wasn't deliberately targeting Little Brother Shi Hao just now. It's just that Da Ming and I heard that the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger we drove away before has invaded our Star Dou Great Forest again. We have to go drive it away once more."
"We came here this time to say goodbye to Xiao Wu and Mother."
"But we may be gone for quite a long time this time. When I saw Little Brother Shi Hao, I was worried that humans might take the chance to harm Mother and Xiao Wu, so I targeted Little Brother Shi Hao like that."
Titan Giant Ape Er Ming explained.
"What Er Ming said is true. Recently, Soul Beasts came to tell us that the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger has invaded our Star Dou Great Forest again. We must drive it away."
At the side, Sky Azure Bull Python Da Ming also spoke in agreement in a deep voice.
"That Dark Demon Evil God Tiger has invaded the Star Dou Great Forest again? Then hurry over. Don't worry about us. The most important thing is not to let that Dark Demon Evil God Tiger slaughter Soul Beasts at will."
Not expecting such a hidden matter, kind-hearted Ah Rou hurriedly said.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had invaded the Star Dou Great Forest?
At the side, Shi Hao was immediately somewhat surprised upon hearing this news.
He remembered from the original body's memories that when Xiao Wu and her mother were hunted by Spirit Hall, the Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python had not been there. The novel simply had not explained why.
He had not expected it to be because the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had happened to invade the Star Dou Great Forest at that time.
Faced with Ah Rou's urging, Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python also knew that driving away the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was most urgent.
But before leaving, Sky Azure Bull Python used its Soul Skill as usual to replace the pond water near where Xiao Wu and Ah Rou lived with fresh water.
Because of their size, Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python did not live with Xiao Wu and her mother. They lived beside the distant Lake of Life.
Every so often, Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python would come visit Xiao Wu and Ah Rou.
Among them, because Titan Giant Ape commanded a large number of ape-type Soul Beasts, it brought fresh fruit every time.
As for Sky Azure Bull Python, it was responsible for changing the water in the pond near where Xiao Wu and Ah Rou lived.
After finishing their tasks, Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python prepared to leave as well.
However, before leaving, Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python asked Shi Hao for a favor.
After they left, if Ah Rou and Xiao Wu encountered danger, they hoped Shi Hao could help them.
Shi Hao naturally patted his chest with utter confidence and promised that he would definitely protect Xiao Wu and Ah Rou!
As Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python prepared to leave the Star Dou Great Forest Core Area and head to where the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had invaded to drive it away,
Elsewhere, in Spirit City.
Inside the splendid Pope's Hall.
A woman clad in a deep purple Pope's Robe, wearing the Nine Twists Purple Gold Crown and holding the Pope's Staff, sat coldly upon a throne. She had a tall, graceful figure, an elegant and gorgeous face, and an aura of noble majesty.
Before her, a tall man in golden armor with long pale golden hair and a delicate, handsome face, and another tall man in black armor with long black hair and a stern face, were kneeling on one knee together.
"Is everything ready?"
Looking at Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei before her, Bibi Dong slowly opened her mouth and asked indifferently.
"Reporting to Your Holiness, everything is ready!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei replied respectfully.
"Good. Then depart at once!"
Having received an affirmative answer, Bibi Dong immediately rose from the throne, her tall figure and graceful curves instantly on full display.
Yet no one dared to admire them.
As Bibi Dong held the Pope's Staff and stepped forward with her long, jade-like legs,
A fierce gust suddenly swept through the hall, instantly blowing open the doors.
Yet Bibi Dong's elegant, noble face remained unruffled. Holding the Pope's Staff, she walked steadily and unhurriedly toward the doors.
Behind her, after Bibi Dong started forward, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei also stood, respectfully following behind her on either side.
As the three left, the hall doors suddenly shut.
After Bibi Dong left Pope's Hall with the Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo,
A large group of waiting Red-Clothed Archbishops and Black-Clothed Bishops had already gathered outside Pope's Hall.
Upon seeing Bibi Dong, the Red-Clothed Archbishops and Black-Clothed Bishops all bowed.
"Depart. Target: Star Dou Great Forest!"
Seeing that everyone involved in the operation had arrived, Bibi Dong nodded in satisfaction. She swept the hand holding the Pope's Staff toward the horizon, and her entire body instantly rose into the air, streaking toward the distance with a whoosh!
Seeing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei also rose into the air close behind her. The Red-Clothed Archbishops and Black-Clothed Archbishops swiftly leaped up as well and quickly followed.
Thus, the group soon left Spirit City and set out for the Star Dou Great Forest.
