Are You Questioning My Plan?

Yu Mingxiao repeatedly asked about the Soft Bone Rabbit, and Di Tian assumed he was interested in this type of Soul Beast. Naturally, he was willing to give the Soft Bone Rabbit away.

Soul Beasts possessed hearing far sharper than humans, and Di Tian had not concealed the meaning behind his words. Xiao Wu heard everything clearly.

When she learned that Di Tian intended to have her Sacrifice herself to this unfamiliar human, her entire body froze. Unable to resist, she could only tremble violently.

The Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python wanted to comfort Xiao Wu, yet feared angering Di Tian. For a moment, neither dared speak and could only shield her behind them with their bodies.

Yu Mingxiao turned toward the three agitated Soul Beasts, a faint smile curling across his lips. He said softly, "Thank you for your kindness, Beast God, but I have no interest in a Soft Bone Rabbit's Soul Ring."

Xiao Wu's soul skills were not weak. Whether Void or Invincible Golden Body, both were excellent life-saving skills. However, they offered little help to his Radiant Sacred Dragon Martial Soul. Given a choice, he naturally would not absorb a Soft Bone Rabbit's Soul Ring.

Hearing that Yu Mingxiao was not interested in her Soul Ring, Xiao Wu immediately let out a huge sigh of relief, as if she had just walked past the gates of hell.

If Yu Mingxiao truly wanted to absorb her Soul Ring, she would have to find a way to contact her mother and flee the Star Dou Great Forest. She would not care about any Beast God's orders.

Di Tian nodded slightly. Just as he was about to ask Yu Mingxiao to leave, Gu Yuena's voice suddenly rang through his mind. "Di Tian, come see me immediately. Do not let Yu Mingxiao leave the Star Dou Great Forest for now."

Di Tian's body shuddered. Looking at Yu Mingxiao, he said in a deep voice, "Human, stay here for now. This king will return shortly."

Yu Mingxiao did not understand why, but he did not ask further. He merely replied, "All right."

Di Tian tore open space and vanished in the blink of an eye, leaving Yu Mingxiao, Bi Ji, and the other three Soul Beasts staring at one another.

"Master, may I ask why you summoned your subordinate?" Di Tian arrived in the space where Gu Yuena resided, bowed slightly, and spoke respectfully.

"Di Tian, I have a plan." The Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena, blinked lightly and laid out her plan to place Bi Ji beside Yu Mingxiao.

"Master... this... may not be appropriate."

After hearing her plan, Di Tian's initial respect gradually faded. His brows furrowed, his expression shifted repeatedly, and he seemed hesitant to speak.

Bi Ji had always been his capable assistant. After tens of thousands of years together, although their relationship had never gone further, he held affection for her. Now that his master wanted to send Bi Ji away, Di Tian could not help feeling reluctant.

It would have been one thing to cover Yu Mingxiao's future Soul Rings, but now she was even sending Bi Ji away. No matter how respectful Di Tian was toward the Silver Dragon King, he felt somewhat dissatisfied at this moment.

"Hmm? Di Tian, what is inappropriate about it? Are you questioning my plan?"

Gu Yuena frowned slightly. She did not care about such matters among her subordinates, and with the Dragon Clan's strict hierarchy, she believed Di Tian should not defy her.

"No. Master's plan is perfect." Di Tian took a deep breath and spoke against his true feelings.

"Then go and tell Bi Ji my plan. Have her follow Yu Mingxiao. Also, give my Reverse Scale to Bi Ji. This Reverse Scale can conceal her Soul Beast aura, making it easier for her to travel in the human world."

Gu Yuena handed a moon-white scale to Di Tian. Her gaze sharpened as she said gravely, "He may be the key to breaking the deadlock for our Soul Beast race."

"Although his potential does not appear particularly high at present, he is an exceptionally special person with limitless possibilities."

"The deeper his goodwill toward the Soul Beast race, the greater the returns our Soul Beasts will receive."

"Yes, Master." Di Tian accepted the Reverse Scale, bowed, and withdrew. He slipped into a spatial rift and disappeared.

After he left, Gu Yuena sighed softly. "Yu Mingxiao, I hope you will not disappoint me."

Di Tian returned to the outside world, his gaze falling on Bi Ji. His tone was immensely complicated. "Bi Ji, come with me."

Bi Ji looked toward Yu Mingxiao, seeming concerned for his safety. After all, he was their master's guest.

Di Tian's brows drew together, and his expression darkened. His voice turned colder. "Do not concern yourself with him. No Soul Beast would dare launch a sneak attack against him."

Bi Ji nodded and followed Di Tian to an unoccupied corner.

Di Tian hesitated for a moment before handing Gu Yuena's Reverse Scale to her. "Master asked me to give this to you."

"Master?" Bi Ji held the scale blankly, her face full of confusion. "This scale differs from the scales covering Master's body. It should be a Reverse Scale. Why would she give her Reverse Scale to me?"

Bound by Gu Yuena's orders, Di Tian still said unwillingly, "Bi Ji... Master says this human has limitless potential. She orders you to follow him and, if possible, become his lover."

"While living beside him day and night, subtly influence his attitude toward Soul Beasts and make him favor our race. If you can tie him to the Soul Beast camp, that would be even better."

"What?!" Bi Ji raised a hand to cover her lips. "Master truly said that? She actually wants me to approach that human? What charm does he possess!?"

Di Tian shook his head and sighed. "Other than knowing some secrets, I cannot see anything special about this human either. But since Master has spoken, I can only ask you to suffer this indignity."

Bi Ji lowered her head slightly and fell silent for a moment. Then, as though she had made up her mind, she said, "All right. Since it is Master's order, I will approach that human."

Di Tian's heart ached, but he still forced a smile. "Master and the Star Dou Great Forest will remember your sacrifice."

"This Reverse Scale can conceal your Soul Beast aura, making it easier for you to move about in the human world. Let us go back first. Later, you will leave with that human."

Bi Ji nodded gently, put away the Silver Dragon Reverse Scale, and returned with Di Tian to where Yu Mingxiao was at the Lake of Life.

"You're back?" Yu Mingxiao raised a brow and asked.

"Yu Mingxiao, Master has entrusted Bi Ji to you. Take her with you when you leave the Star Dou Great Forest," Di Tian said in a deep voice.

"Huh? Di Tian, are you joking?" Yu Mingxiao froze slightly, his face full of disbelief.

Di Tian casually made up an excuse. "Master fears that you will miss Na'er too much, so she has asked Bi Ji to accompany you. She can protect you as well."

"Though she is a healing-type Soul Beast and possesses almost no direct offensive ability, she has cultivated for five hundred and sixty thousand years. She is roughly equivalent to a human Soul Master who has just entered the Limit Douluo realm, and her protective and healing abilities are exceptionally powerful."

"This..." Yu Mingxiao frowned slightly, instantly seeing through Gu Yuena's intentions.

She was obviously uneasy about him, afraid that he would gain benefits without helping the Soul Beasts. Therefore, she had sent someone to monitor him, while also hoping to use this chance to influence his attitude toward Soul Beasts.

At this point, it seemed he could only keep Bi Ji by his side.
