Xiao Wu instinctively looked at Jiang Chen. "What should we do now?"
She did not want Er Ming to fight that Title Douluo.
But she still needed to return with Er Ming to increase her Soul Power, so she could not go back immediately.
Jiang Chen knew what Xiao Wu was worried about. "You should go back with it first. I'll wander around nearby."
"You're not coming with me?"
"I..."
Jiang Chen instinctively wanted to refuse, but on second thought, Tang San was probably fighting the Man Faced Demon Spider around this time. He would likely finish it before long.
Besides, the process by which he received returned Soul Rings really did make him resemble a Soul Beast.
Rather than sneak back to obtain Soul Rings, he might as well openly display himself beside two Soul Beast overlords.
That might even earn him the goodwill of two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.
What was more, with Xiao Wu there, he would not be in any danger.
With that thought, Jiang Chen changed his tune. "All right, I'll go back with you. I can take a look at the other Soul Beast overlord too."
Xiao Wu's eyes lit up at those words.
Sure enough, just as she had thought, Jiang Chen was one of her kind.
"Er Ming, hurry, hurry! Take him back with us," Xiao Wu quickly ordered.
"Roar."
The Titan Giant Ape let out an irritated roar, but obediently lifted Jiang Chen onto its other shoulder. Then it strode forward and raced toward the heart of the forest.
Not long after it left, a streak of sword light tore through the darkness, and Chen Xin, clad in white robes, appeared in midair.
Looking at the deep pit left below, his sword-like brows furrowed slightly. "Was I still a step too late?"
