This Seat had assumed that since Sister Xiao Wu had met those people from the starry sky, she would understand some information about them, but the outcome left Qin Chuan deeply disappointed.

"Sister Xiao Wu, how do you know people from foreign lands?" Da Ming asked. Having already gained an understanding of the continent's recent situation, he stretched out his long neck, filled with curiosity.

"I met her when I first left the forest. If it weren't for her, I'm afraid I would have run into quite a bit of trouble in the human world."

As it turned out, when Sister Xiao Wu first entered the human world, she had no money at all and encountered many difficulties.

If not for the woman named Yu Linglong, who saw through her identity and not only harbored no greed but even offered kind assistance, she wouldn't have even been able to enter the Soul Master Academy.

"I never expected these people to have such kindness. Faced with the temptation of a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, she was actually able to maintain her original intent and even take the initiative to help!"

Scarlet King raised his eyebrows, his tone filled with surprise.

He had participated in previous capture operations and had a deep impression of them, particularly their profound, all-consuming arrogance.

They would constantly talk about capturing them to skin them, pull their tendons, and refine them into medicine, or else subdue them as mounts. Thus, he could not help but feel astonished.

"May I ask the name of this friend?" Da Ming turned his gaze toward Scarlet King, while Titan Giant Ape also stood to the side. He was deeply interested in this powerhouse who had sent him flying with a single punch, his face full of excitement.

"No need to guess. I emerged from beneath the lake. On this trip, I am acting as his guardian and will be leaving for a period of time."

Scarlet King said indifferently, gesturing toward Qin Chuan, his meaning self-evident.

BOOM!

The moment the words fell!

Both great beasts were shocked, their scalps tingling. Titan Giant Ape, in particular, felt as though his thick fur was about to be soaked through with sweat.

Looking at Scarlet King again, the pupils of the two great beasts reflected a Three-Headed Scarlet Mastiff that appeared to be burning, its crimson light fierce as it stood in the void, roaring.

"Da Ming, what's wrong with you?"

"And Er Ming, why are your legs shaking?" Sister Xiao Wu asked in confusion. Noticing that something was wrong with the two great beasts, she looked at Scarlet King, completely bewildered.

"Oh, it's nothing!"

"By the way, Sister Xiao Wu, what is the situation with those humans the second brother mentioned? Are they your friends?" Seeing that Scarlet King did not wish to reveal his identity, Da Ming hurriedly changed the subject, acting with extreme caution.

The way he looked at Qin Chuan now had completely changed!

He held Qin Chuan in even higher regard; to think that such a terrifying powerhouse could emerge to serve as his guardian.

This was simply insane!

Sister Xiao Wu did not notice the abnormality between the two and exclaimed, "Oh no, they must think I was snatched away by Er Ming. They must be so worried right now. Aiya, it's all your fault, Er Ming, appearing so suddenly and scaring everyone."

As she spoke, she angrily lifted her slender jade leg and kicked Titan Giant Ape, a look of anxiety showing on her pretty face.

Titan Giant Ape scratched his head.

He let her kick him, only able to look at her with a wronged expression.

"Xiao Wu, you are talking about those fellows from Shrek Academy." Qin Chuan frowned slightly. He had no fondness for those who wanted to snatch his prey, especially that hypocritical little man named Tang San.

"That was just an accident. Everyone gets along very well on a daily basis; I don't know how things turned out like that last time."

"And Little San, I don't know how he could have done such a thing?"

Sister Xiao Wu hurriedly explained, her pretty face moving and pure as white paper, hoping to resolve the grudge between the two sides.

Seeing Sister Xiao Wu's anxious appearance, Qin Chuan said calmly, "Don't worry, I have my own sense of how to handle this matter."

However, thinking of the Titled Douluo secretly guarding Tang San, Qin Chuan's expression shifted slightly. "Xiao Wu, a piece of advice: you shouldn't go out anymore. Just stay in the forest."

Upon hearing this, the Titan Giant Ape to the side was delighted.

He hurriedly leaned in and said, "That's right, Sister Xiao Wu. The kid Qin Chuan is right. You shouldn't go out anymore; the human world is too dangerous."

"Er Ming, shut up! And you, why can't I go out?" Sister Xiao Wu put her hands on her hips, feeling a bit angered.

Glaring at Qin Chuan, she hadn't had enough fun yet!

Moreover, she still hadn't found that big sister who had helped her; how could she just retreat like this?

"Xiao Wu, although your transformation is very successful, you cannot hide it from a powerhouse at the Titled Douluo level. And now, the situation on the continent is treacherous; there are already quite a few powerhouses of that level."

Qin Chuan said with a solemn expression.

Out of kindness, he even explained the current state of the continent.

But Sister Xiao Wu was clearly unwilling: "I appreciate your good intentions, but the continent is so vast. How could I possibly run into those people? So, none of you should try to persuade me."

Scarlet King stood to the side, watching coldly, not saying a word throughout.

He did not care about the life or death of a soul beast like Xiao Wu who had already transformed; his only goal now was Qin Chuan.

"It's getting late, and I must be leaving. Whether you go or stay is up to you, but I can tell you clearly: there is a Titled Douluo following Tang San, and he may have already seen through your identity."

The dim, yellow sunlight spilled over the Star Dou, draping it in a hazy veil; it was not long before sunset.

Seeing that Sister Xiao Wu was still determined to leave, Qin Chuan had said all he could and did not waste any more breath, preparing to depart.

After all, he did not have a deep relationship with her, but he left these words behind in the hope that Sister Xiao Wu, or rather, Da Ming, would take them seriously.

Although both great beasts acknowledged Sister Xiao Wu as their big sister, Qin Chuan could see that the most steady of the three was Da Ming, and he was the one who truly held the reins.

Sure enough, upon learning that a Title Douluo had been lurking in the shadows watching over Xiao Wu, the expression on the Sky Azure Bull Python's face changed instantly.

Even Xiao Wu broke out in a cold sweat from the shock.

"Farewell, everyone!"

After taking his leave, Qin Chuan walked out of the Forbidden Land of the Star Dou Great Forest and headed toward the core area; he needed to continue collecting the remaining two of the Five Poisons.

He had previously found the Cold Water Gecko, the Man Faced Demon Spider, and the Three Water Toad, all of which were highly venomous creatures.

Now, he only needed to find the final two to refine the ancient medicinal pill.

It took quite some time to find a single Man Faced Demon Spider last time, but with such a powerful helper now, I should be able to gather the Five Poisons very quickly. Glancing at the silent Scarlet King beside him, Qin Chuan could barely suppress his laughter.

His trip to Star Dou had been incredibly fruitful; first, he obtained a piece of Life Gold from Di Tian, which allowed him to reach the seventh stage of the Body Casting Realm.

Then, he obtained another piece from the Sky Azure Bull Python, and now that his personal safety was fully guaranteed, everything he did would be much more convenient.

As far as the current Star Dou Great Forest was concerned, he was effectively walking through an empty land; under the terrifying aura of the Scarlet King, almost no soul beast dared to stand in his way.

As he traveled, all the soul beasts in the vicinity sensed the terrifying pressure radiating from the Scarlet King and trembled, prostrating themselves on the ground, not daring to lift their heads to block his path in the slightest!
