Millennium Blazing Sun Snake, Ning Rongrong is Shocked

Heaven Dou Empire, Imperial City, Crown Prince's Residence.

Two figures clad in golden armor stood before an incredibly beautiful woman.

Those two individuals were none other than Snake Lance Douluo and Pufferfish Douluo.

Both of them had been sent by Qian Daoliu to protect Qian Renxue.

These two elders of Martial Soul Hall had watched Qian Renxue grow up, and their relationship was quite close.

At this moment, Qian Renxue was not making any effort to conceal her appearance.

She was displaying her true self, not the visage of Xue Qinghe.

She sat in a chair, slowly sipping her tea.

"Two elders, how is A-Yuan doing?"

Snake Lance Douluo replied, "Reporting to the Young Mistress."

"That Ye Yuan has already left the Star Luo Empire and is now in the Heaven Dou Empire."

"He ran into the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Rongrong."

"The two are now traveling together, searching for his second soul ring."

"Crack!" The teacup in Qian Renxue's hand was crushed into pieces by her sheer grip.

Snake Lance Douluo exclaimed, "Young Mistress... are you alright?"

Qian Renxue's actions startled them both.

In their impression, their Young Mistress was an extremely calm person.

Qian Renxue picked up a cloth and wiped her hands.

She said softly, "I'm fine."

At this moment, the two Title Douluo thought to themselves: Are you sure? The tragic state of that teacup is still sitting right there.

Of course, they only dared to think such things in their hearts.

"You may withdraw. Since A-Yuan has already left the Star Luo Empire, you two elders no longer need to follow him."

"Understood." The two bowed and retreated.

After they stepped outside, Snake Lance said with some dissatisfaction, "Brother, what kind of virtue or ability does that Ye Yuan have to make our Young Mistress care about him so much?"

Pufferfish replied, "Don't concern yourself with that; this is the Young Mistress's private business."

"As for us, we only need to take care of whatever obstacles stand in the Young Mistress's way."

After seeing the two leave, Qian Renxue gritted her teeth and said, "A-Yuan, you are still the same as in your past life—disobedient, and with such an incredible knack for attracting women."

"I am starting to regret letting you leave my side."

If it weren't for the fact that she was worried that forcing Ye Yuan to stay by her side would hinder his path to becoming stronger, Qian Renxue would never have let him take even a single step away from her!

She touched her flushed cheeks, revealing a sickly, obsessive smile.

"A-Yuan, I hope you behave yourself, otherwise I will have no choice but to chain you up in the future."

"That way, you won't be able to go around flirting with others."

Ye Yuan led Ning Rongrong as they continued to head deeper into the Star Dou Great Forest.

Throughout this journey, Ning Rongrong's favorability toward the man before her had increased significantly.

Whenever they encountered soul beasts, he was always the first to protect her.

Moreover, being with him lacked the calculations and constraints she faced back home.

She didn't know how long it had been since she had interacted with someone like this.

Watching the youth's free and easy silhouette, Ning Rongrong's eyes sparkled with brilliance.

"I see that your soul power fluctuations are not weak; what level of soul beast are you planning to look for?"

Ning Rongrong asked.

Ye Yuan replied, "A thousand-year soul beast."

"What, a thousand-year soul beast?" Ning Rongrong exclaimed.

For an ordinary person, a thousand-year soul ring is usually their fourth soul ring, while those with good talent might have a thousand-year soul ring as their third.

Two yellow and one purple is the optimal configuration for a level 30 soul master.

The better a soul master's foundation, the higher their potential limit.

She had never heard of anyone being able to absorb a thousand-year soul ring as their second soul ring.

Ye Yuan cast a glance at Ning Rongrong.

He walked slowly with his hands behind his head, a blade of grass he'd plucked from somewhere dangling from his mouth.

Then, he channeled his soul power, and in an instant, a purple soul ring circled Ye Yuan.

Ning Rongrong felt an extreme sense of pressure wash over her in an instant.

It wasn't that she had never seen a millennium soul ring before.

It was just that she had never seen a millennium soul ring with such an imposing aura, and to think his very first soul ring was purple!

Ning Rongrong covered her red lips and exclaimed, "You... your first soul ring is actually a millennium soul ring!"

Even the former genius of the Martial Soul Hall, Qian Xunji, had only started with two yellow and one purple.

Ning Rongrong had never seen anyone whose first soul ring was a millennium one.

Moreover, looking at the pressure released by the soul ring, it was already approaching that of a ten-thousand-year soul ring!

Did such a person really exist in this world?

Could a human body truly withstand it?

Ye Yuan walked in front, the corners of his mouth curling up.

He was extremely satisfied with Ning Rongrong's reaction.

So this is how satisfying it is to show off!

It seems he had missed out on quite a few good things during his years serving as a knight commander in the Star Luo Empire.

"Roar!"

Ye Yuan flashed instantly in front of Ning Rongrong and scooped her up by the waist.

"Mm!"

Ning Rongrong was startled by this sudden movement.

Ning Rongrong knew there were soul beasts nearby.

Ye Yuan and Ning Rongrong hid behind a bamboo grove.

Seeing Ning Rongrong's face flushed red, he asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Ning Rongrong avoided Ye Yuan's eyes and said softly, "Your... your hand."

Ye Yuan looked down and said, "Oh, oh, sorry."

He set Ning Rongrong down.

Ning Rongrong muttered in a low voice, "You didn't even pay attention to where you were putting your hands when you grabbed me."

"You were hurting me."

Ye Yuan didn't hear her; his attention was entirely focused on a soul beast not far away.

Judging by its physique, it was a millennium soul beast.

If Ye Yuan remembered correctly, that was a Millennium Blazing Sun Snake.

Although it was a millennium soul beast, its strength was not high.

Its only strong point was its speed.

Since his first soul ring was a Man Faced Demon Spider, he was currently not lacking in attack power.

This soul beast would perfectly compensate for his lack of speed.

That said, it was still a millennium soul beast after all.

Even if its attack power wasn't high, Ye Yuan would still find it extremely strenuous to face it.

Ning Rongrong followed Ye Yuan's gaze.

"A nine-thousand-year soul beast, nearing ten thousand years!"

"Are you sure..." Ning Rongrong stopped mid-sentence.

She thought of Ye Yuan's first millennium soul ring and was no longer surprised by his actions.

Ye Yuan said slowly, "My first soul skill is River Severing, which has extremely high attack power, but with my current soul power, I can only use it twice."

"One hit definitely won't kill it, but my sword is coated with the poison of the Man Faced Demon Spider."

"As long as the first strike lands, I can drag out the time afterward and then deliver a fatal blow."

"You will assist me later to increase my speed."

"The first strike is the key; it must be unexpected."

"Finally, wait for my command to increase my strength, do you understand?"

Ye Yuan's face was serious now, forming a sharp contrast with his previously cavalier image.

This sudden change left Ning Rongrong a bit dazed.

She hadn't expected this man to be quite handsome when he was serious.

"Alright, you can rest assured."

Ning Rongrong nodded.

Ye Yuan stared at the Millennium Blazing Sun Snake, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

Just as the Millennium Blazing Sun Snake was feeding.

"Do it."

Ning Rongrong channeled her soul power, "Second Soul Skill, Agility Boost!"

In an instant, Ye Yuan's movement speed increased by twenty percent.

Ye Yuan thought to himself, As expected of the continent's number one support martial soul!

"First Soul Skill, River Severing!"

Ye Yuan raised the cracked Bloodthirsty Sword and slashed toward the Millennium Blazing Sun Snake.

After all, it was a millennium soul beast, and its reactions were extremely swift.

It reacted in an instant.

Then it immediately defended itself; the Bloodthirsty Sword scraped off one of the Blazing Sun Snake's scales and left a small wound.

"Damn it, it truly lives up to its reputation as a speed-based soul beast."

The smaller the wound, the less poison would enter, and the slower the onset of the toxin would be.

This posed a great challenge to Ye Yuan's plan to stall for time.

After all, he certainly couldn't outrun this thing.

"Little Rongrong, how much longer can your speed boost last?"

Ning Rongrong blushed slightly at the sudden nickname.

"I can keep it up for another fifteen minutes!" Ning Rongrong replied.

Ye Yuan said, "That should be enough time for the toxin to take effect."

Having said that, he continued to maneuver through the woods, circling the Blazing Sun Snake.

After all, he could not stray too far from Ning Rongrong.
