Bibi Dong seemed to feel a little embarrassed as well and took the initiative to speak.
"We mean no harm either. I happened to be at the point of breaking through, so I thought I'd follow you in secret and save myself some trouble."
The route Yu Tianjun's group had verified as safe was indeed relatively safe. This reason was fairly reasonable.
Bibi Dong's cultivation had indeed reached the point where she needed a breakthrough.
Yu Tianjun lowered his guard somewhat, but he still did not give her a friendly look.
"If that is the case, then the two of you should take another route, lest any misunderstandings arise."
Yu Tianjun's tone was calm, but perhaps Yu Yuanzhen had been right—women liked to explore men like this.
"That may not be possible, because I've already found a suitable soul beast."
Bibi Dong pointed in the direction Yu Tianjun had come from, her tone carrying a trace of playfulness.
"My Martial Soul is poisonous. I can sense that there is a poisonous soul beast inside with roughly the right cultivation age."
After saying this again and again, she was clearly unwilling to leave. Yu Tianjun's expression finally turned cold, and he no longer showed her any courtesy.
"In that case, we will have to fight."
Yu Tianjun snorted coldly and used Martial Soul Possession. Four soul rings that exceeded the optimal configuration rose around him.
Seeing the one yellow and three purple soul rings around Yu Tianjun, the interest in Bibi Dong's eyes deepened.
"You misunderstand, sir. But since it has come to this, it seems we have no choice but to fight."
Bibi Dong gave a soft snort. Her legs suddenly vanished, replaced by a massive round, spherical body.
Eight thick legs extended from the sphere, covered in tufts of green fur and sticky fluid, making it look terrifying.
When the fluid dripped onto the ground, sizzling corrosion sounds rang out.
This Martial Soul was no simple matter!
Yu Tianjun's expression tightened.
Judging by its aura, it was an entire level stronger than the Man Faced Demon Spider he had seen while hunting soul beasts before.
One had to know that the Man Faced Demon Spider was already a top-tier soul beast, capable of fighting opponents above its rank.
Yet this woman's Martial Soul was even more terrifying than the Man Faced Demon Spider!
Still, judging from this appearance, she really was an old witch.
With the same one yellow and three purple soul ring configuration, a trace of pride flashed through Bibi Dong's eyes.
Unlike Yu Xiaogang's inborn temperament, Bibi Dong had been a favored daughter of heaven since childhood. Every gesture of hers was filled with confidence.
In a battle against someone of the same rank—especially an opponent several levels below her—Bibi Dong was confident she could not lose!
Once she dealt with Yu Tianjun, she could go help Lu Yu.
Seeing that the other side intended to fight, Yu Ying immediately dragged Lu Yu away without any hesitation.
He had absolute confidence in Yu Tianjun, because he was Yu Tianjun's combat instructor.
Not to mention Soul Ancestors, even ordinary Soul Kings were no match for Yu Tianjun.
Only Yu Tianjun and Bibi Dong remained in the clearing now, and the atmosphere between them became heavy for a moment.
Knowing she was in the wrong, Bibi Dong did not wish to offend the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, so she simply raised a hand.
"I was indeed rather presumptuous. You may make the first move."
Yu Tianjun did not stand on ceremony. The only yellow soul ring on his body flashed, and his frame seemed to grow several centimeters taller as he charged explosively toward Bibi Dong.
First Soul Skill, Golden Dragon Body—an eighty percent boost to all attributes!
(Many readers said the boost was too weak. I felt the same, so I changed it. This should be about right.)
Sensing Yu Tianjun's aura surge dramatically, Bibi Dong's expression turned somewhat solemn.
His Martial Soul was clearly stronger than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, and it even gave her a feeling comparable to her master Qian Xunji's Angel Martial Soul.
Putting away her confidence and pride, Bibi Dong activated her first soul skill as well.
The eight spider legs seemed to receive some kind of enhancement. Large amounts of fluid gushed out, and their strength in every aspect soared.
Bibi Dong's Death Spider Emperor specialized in defense and poison. Facing Yu Tianjun's fierce assault, she was completely unafraid.
"Death Entanglement!"
Bibi Dong shouted, and several green poison webs sprayed into the air. Her first soul skill not only enhanced her body's strength, but also had a controlling effect!
Yu Tianjun's suspicions deepened.
A powerful spider Martial Soul, and the name she gave contained the character Dong...
Bibi Dong!
Yu Tianjun realized it, but his movements did not slow in the slightest. With a light sweep of his claws, sharp brilliant golden light flashed and sliced all the spider webs into powder.
The powder fell to the ground, and vast clouds of poisonous mist rose up. But with the Golden Dragon's physique enhancement, this amount of poison could not affect Yu Tianjun.
Having roughly guessed her identity, Yu Tianjun likewise held nothing back.
After cultivating for so long, this was the first time Yu Tianjun had encountered a genius soul master of similar age and rank to himself. His fighting spirit was thoroughly roused.
To make Bibi Dong use her full strength, Yu Tianjun taunted her as he closed in.
"An old witch is an old witch. You only know how to use such despicable tricks."
Beneath her veil, Bibi Dong's beautiful face twisted with anger.
That damned bastard actually called her an old witch again. Couldn't he tell from her voice?!
In her fury, Bibi Dong directly activated her fourth soul ring.
"Death Devour!"
A phantom of the Death Spider Emperor abruptly rose before Bibi Dong and opened its mouth full of venomous fangs, tearing toward Yu Tianjun.
"Good!"
Yu Tianjun curled his lips into a smile, and his inky deep-purple fourth soul ring lit up as well.
"Fourth Soul Skill, Flash Dragon Fang Strike!"
It came from a powerful nine-thousand-year dragon-type soul beast, and absorbing its soul ring had been even more difficult than absorbing an ordinary ten-thousand-year soul beast's ring!
As Yu Tianjun's only offensive soul skill at present, its power was beyond question.
In almost an instant, Yu Tianjun vanished from where he stood and appeared directly before Bibi Dong.
Seeing the young man before her, who even wore a faint smile of delight, Bibi Dong's mind jolted.
It was not attraction. It was alarm.
This is bad!
Bibi Dong hurriedly directed the Death Spider Emperor phantom to attack Yu Tianjun, but it was already too late.
A golden dragon claw shot out, and a golden dragon head phantom suddenly flew forth. Its savage dragon fangs were revealed, even surpassing the Death Spider Emperor.
"Whoosh!!!"
A violent wind swept past, and Bibi Dong's figure halted...
"Boom!!!"
The explosion of clashing energy rang out as Bibi Dong's Death Devour collided head-on with Yu Tianjun's Flash Dragon Fang Strike.
Just as Bibi Dong had thought, Yu Tianjun did not wish to become completely hostile with Spirit Hall either, so he controlled his attack and deliberately collided with hers.
Otherwise, based on physical strength alone, Yu Tianjun would suffer no more than minor injuries from taking that attack head-on. Whether Bibi Dong would still be alive was another matter.
Even if she did not die, she would be crippled!
But seeing the scene so close before him, Yu Tianjun could not help but pause.
The fierce wind swept past, pressing her loose robes tightly against her lovely curves.
Her veil was blown away, revealing an incomparably beautiful face.
She was more beautiful than every woman Yu Tianjun had ever seen. Even after being tempered by makeup and the internet, he had to admit that she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
But Yu Tianjun obviously could not become obsessed with beauty. His expression remained calm.
"You lost, old... witch."
