The Auspicious Beast Took Human Form and Threw Herself into His Arms, So She Was Named Di Lingxi
Meanwhile, high in the sky.
Dai Huabin, who was talking quietly with Zhu Lu, suddenly paused slightly.
He felt a strange call coming from the depths of the forest below.
The feeling was peculiar; it didn't feel like a probe of Soul Power or mental energy, but more like a resonance.
A resonance from the depths of one's blood and soul.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Lu noticed his unusual behavior immediately.
Dai Huabin shook his head, not answering immediately, but calming his senses and carefully experiencing the pull.
Just then, two figures flew over from the side at high speed.
It was Xue Qingyao and Bing Hanyue.
"Huabin, it seems that Bi Ji and the others are downstairs," Ice Empress said directly.
Snow Empress nodded slightly; she too had sensed that familiar and powerful life force.
Bi Ji and the Auspicious Beast?
They must have something important to tell me since they came all this way to wait for me.
Without further hesitation, Dai Huabin accelerated and flew towards Zhang Lexuan at the front of the group.
"Sister Lexuan."
Hearing the sound, Zhang Lexuan turned around and saw that Dai Huabin, Xue Qingyao, and Bing Hanyue had all stopped. A questioning look appeared in her silver eyes.
"Sister Lexuan, you go ahead, I have some personal matters to attend to," Dai Huabin said directly.
Zhang Lexuan glanced down at the dense forest in his direction, but saw nothing. She wisely refrained from asking any further questions.
Especially after seeing Xue Qingyao and Bing Hanyue stop, she understood even more.
This is probably related to the mysterious, reclusive family behind Dai Huabin.
"Okay!" Zhang Lexuan nodded readily. "We'll continue along the planned route. Catch up with me as soon as you've finished your business."
Dai Huabin responded and then turned back to the Reserve Team.
"Lulu, Dong'er, you two go with the main group first. I'll go down for a bit and be right back."
"Are you alone?" Wang Dong'er frowned.
"Don't worry," Dai Huabin smiled, pointing to Snow Empress and Ice Empress beside him, "They're with me."
Zhu Lu nodded obediently, only adding, "Be careful."
"Then hurry up and come." Wang Dong'er snorted, but the concern in her words was unmistakable.
From a short distance away, Ma Xiaotao teased, "Huabin, are you going to see some old flame?"
Dai Huabin ignored her and waved to Zhu Lu and the others.
Immediately, he, Snow Empress, and Ice Empress changed direction, transforming into three streaks of light and rapidly descending towards the Star Dou Great Forest below.
Watching the three disappear into the dense forest, Wang Dong'er felt a pang of unease.
"Hmph, so secretive."
Ma Xiaotao flew to her side and cheerfully put her arm around her shoulder:
"What? Jealous? Don't worry, with Huabin's abilities, even if there's a temptress hiding down there, she'll only be able to be tamed by him."
Wang Dong'er blushed and pulled away from her arm. "Who's jealous! I'm just... just worried about the mission!"
Zhu Lu seemed to have thought of something, and muttered to herself, "No way..."
On the other side, Dai Huabin, along with Xue Qingyao and Bing Hanyue, landed steadily in a wide clearing in the forest.
Ancient trees tower all around, and sunlight filters through the lush foliage, casting dappled patterns of light.
Two people were standing not far ahead.
Bi Ji was still wearing that emerald green gauze dress, exuding a gentle and pure aura. Standing beside her was a completely unfamiliar blonde girl.
The girl had a slender and graceful figure, with long, dazzling golden hair that cascaded down her back, and skin as white as snow. Her features were exquisite and aloof, her golden eyes clear and bright, and she possessed an innate air of nobility.
Although the girl's aura was concealed by Di Tian's Black Dragon Reverse Scale, Dai Huabin's heart skipped a beat after just one glance.
That was a resonance brought about by Fate Connection.
There's no need to ask any more questions; this girl is the Auspicious Beast.
"Huabin, you've finally arrived!"
The blonde girl suddenly laughed, her previously aloof demeanor instantly melting away.
She ran forward quickly, completely ignoring the other people around her, and threw herself into Dai Huabin's arms.
Dai Huabin opened his arms and caught her steadily.
The girl's body was light and carried a faint, fresh scent of grass and trees. She wrapped her arms tightly around Dai Huabin's waist, pressed her cheek against his chest, and gently rubbed against him.
"I'm late." Dai Huabin raised his hand and gently patted her back.
"Why didn't you tell me before you transformed into human form? I could have come to pick you up."
Hearing this, the girl pulled away from his embrace, tilted her head back, and complained:
"Uncle Di Tian was watching me too closely; it was a lot of effort to get him to agree. He insisted that Sister Bi Ji stay here with me while we wait for you."
Beside them, Xue Qingyao and Bing Hanyue exchanged a glance.
Ice Empress crossed his arms and pursed his lips. "This little girl is quite clingy. Huabin, aren't you having a bit too much luck with women?"
Snow Empress didn't speak, she just watched quietly.
Dai Huabin turned to look at Bi Ji: "Sister Bi Ji, what's going on?"
Bi Ji smiled gently, "This child couldn't stay still. She kept insisting on transforming into human form and going to find you. Di Tian couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he had me bring her here to wait for you."
"Huabin, you won't abandon me, will you?" The blonde girl leaned closer, gripping Dai Huabin's sleeves tightly with both hands, her tone full of coquettishness.
Who can withstand this?
Looking at that stunningly beautiful face, Dai Huabin casually patted her head:
"How could that be? However, now that we're in the human world, we can't keep calling it 'Auspicious Beast' all the time. Do you have a name?"
The girl shook her head. "No. How about you name one for me Huabin?"
Bi Ji added from the side, "Di Tian originally wanted to give her a name, but she absolutely refused, insisting that you should be the one to choose it."
Dai Huabin thought for a moment, and a name flashed through his mind.
"Di Lingxi. From now on, you'll be called Di Lingxi, okay?"
"Di Lingxi... Ling Xi." The girl repeated it twice, her eyes lighting up. "It sounds nice! I'll be called Di Lingxi!"
She hugged Dai Huabin's arm again, appearing extremely dependent on him.
Bi Ji watched this scene and sighed softly:
"Huabin, Ling Xi is in your care from now on. The human world is complicated, so please protect her. If she's bullied, I won't let you off the hook."
"Don't worry, Sister Bi Ji, with me here, no one can touch her." Dai Huabin readily agreed.
After explaining the situation, Dai Huabin originally planned to take Di Lingxi to catch up with Zhang Lexuan's group.
But then he thought about it again. He was already level 48, only two levels away from level 50. Moreover, he still had several top-tier Soul Bone that he hadn't absorbed yet.
A 70,000 Year Ice Jade Scorpion Left Arm Bone, imbued with the Ice Explosion.
A piece of 100,000-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion Torso Bone.
There were also two 100,000-year-old left leg bones and one 100,000-year-old right leg bone brought out from the Snow Empress's Palace.
Now that we're in the Star Dou Great Forest, we can take this opportunity to absorb the Soul Bone, directly push our Soul Power to level 50, and also get rid of the fifth Soul Ring.
Having made up his mind, Dai Huabin stopped in his tracks.
