Such deep pockets and such a pretty face—which faction's young miss could this be?

Wang Dong'er tucked the gold soul coin card away and asked, "By the way, what's your name?"

"Just roast your fish."

With that, Qian Renxue closed her eyes and silently meditated to recover her soul power.

"Quite cold, aren't you? Fine, for the sake of those gold soul coins, I won't hold it against you."

Wang Dong'er pursed her lips, and soon, the aroma of roasted fish began to spread.

"Here, it's ready."

"Many thanks."

Qian Renxue took the fish and began to eat it bite by bite.

Although there were no seasonings and she was eating only the most primal flavor of the roasted fish, it still left her feeling satisfied.

After filling her stomach, her mood seemed to improve significantly, and she took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Wang Dong'er.

"You're quite bold, daring to venture into the Star Dou Great Forest alone while only a Great Soul Master."

"This is just the outermost perimeter; what's there to be afraid of?"

Wang Dong'er shrugged, and in a few quick bites, she polished off several roasted fish.

Whether she was in a growth spurt or soul masters simply had naturally large appetites, it was hard to say.

After several fish, her stomach was only one-third full.

Fortunately, she had been prepared; as soon as she finished the fish in her hand, the ones by the campfire were nearly ready. She ate five or six in succession before finally stopping, satisfied.

Witnessing this, the corner of Qian Renxue's mouth twitched. She even suspected that Wang Dong'er was a transformed soul beast; she was simply too capable of eating.

Most importantly, her table manners were atrocious; one couldn't tell she was a girl at all.

"I have more here..." Qian Renxue raised her hand to offer the fish to Wang Dong'er.

Wang Dong'er glanced at them and waved her hand. "No more. Eating too much will stretch my stomach."

"My name is... Tang Wutong. What's yours?"

Seeing the timing was right, she asked again.

Revealing her true name was out of the question; one had to remain mysterious when facing strangers.

"Tang Wutong..." Qian Renxue recalled the information. She knew most of the outstanding talents among the younger generation of soul masters, but this was the first time she had heard this name.

To reach level twenty-nine at such a young age—could she be a genius girl from some hidden sect?

"My name is..." Just as Qian Renxue began to speak, a violent gale erupted in the dense forest, and a terrifying pressure surged from the depths of the woods.

Wang Dong'er's expression changed drastically. She quickly channeled her soul power, preparing to initiate her martial soul avatar and flee, when a man draped in a black robe appeared before them as if by teleportation.

His sharp gaze made cold sweat bead on Wang Dong'er's forehead; it felt as if he were peering through her flesh and bone to see right through her, sending a chill down her spine.

This person was definitely a powerhouse standing at the pinnacle of the soul master world...

Wang Dong'er's breath hitched, and the seal of the Sea God's divine sense within her spiritual sea stirred due to the black-clad man's arrival.

However, the man quickly shifted his gaze to Qian Renxue, dropped to one knee with a heavy thud, and spoke with an anxious, deeply remorseful tone.

"Young Miss, it is truly a relief that you are unharmed."

"This subordinate is guilty for failing to detect that beast in time, which led to you... suffering such heavy injuries. Once we return, I will personally beg for punishment from the Great One!"

"Elder Pufferfish, I'm perfectly fine, aren't I? There's no need for such talk. Being ambushed by a soul beast is just a matter of bad luck; it's not your fault. Get up."

Qian Renxue said.

"Many thanks, Young Miss." Pufferfish Douluo stood up and bowed with immense respect.

The heart that had been hanging in his chest finally settled.

If anything had happened to Qian Renxue, the Grand Elder would never have let him off, and he himself would never have been able to forgive himself.

A dignified Title Douluo, yet he had failed to detect that hidden beast—what a useless fool he was!

Elder Pufferfish...

Wang Dong'er furrowed her brows. After carefully recalling the original story, it dawned on her.

Pufferfish Douluo was a Title Douluo elder of Spirit Hall and one of the guardians arranged by Qian Daoliu for Qian Renxue.

In other words, this blonde girl was the future Angel God, Qian Renxue...

Sigh! If I had known it was Qian Renxue, I should have been more greedy and asked for more money.

Aside from that, Wang Dong'er had no other thoughts.

How to put it? She didn't dislike Qian Renxue or the Spirit Hall faction. If it weren't for Spirit Hall and the Qian family, the Douluo Continent would have long since been turned into a mess by evil soul masters.

On a smaller scale, if not for Spirit Hall, Wang Dong'er wouldn't even know how her martial soul would have been awakened, let alone the soul master subsidies she received. Without those, she wouldn't have had enough to eat during her years in Notting City.

It was fortunate that she hadn't told the whole story of how she had saved Qian Renxue.

If Qian Renxue were to find out that she had sucked on her own foot while unconscious...

Tsk, even a noble lady would be furious, let alone Qian Renxue.

The arrival of Pufferfish Douluo left Qian Renxue with no desire to continue her conversation with Wang Dong'er, so she resumed meditating to recover her soul power and physical strength.

Pufferfish Douluo glanced at Wang Dong'er, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke, "Thank you."

"It's nothing," Wang Dong'er replied with a polite smile. "It was just a small favor."

Even though Qian Renxue hadn't said anything, he could tell from the treated wounds on her body that Wang Dong'er was her savior.

Not just Qian Renxue's, but his savior as well.

Shortly after, he vanished into the dense forest, returning a moment later driving a carriage.

With Pufferfish Douluo's support, Qian Renxue stood up. Just as she was about to leave, she turned to look at Wang Dong'er.

"Miss Tang, where are you headed? If it's on the way, I can give you a lift."

"Is that alright? I'd feel so bad."

Wang Dong'er's favorability toward Qian Renxue increased by one percent in her heart. She had only taken a few steps when she heard Qian Renxue say:

"Since Miss Tang feels bad about it, then I won't insist. We shall meet again; I hope we have the chance to cross paths in the future."

With that, she stepped into the carriage and sat down, poking her head out of the window to flash a fake smile at Wang Dong'er.

Wang Dong'er stood frozen in place, only snapping back to reality once the carriage had vanished from sight, realizing she had been teased.

Favorability decreased by ninety-nine.

From this moment on, Qian Renxue was Wang Dong'er's enemy.

What a waste of kindness; she should have known better than to meddle in other people's business.

The next day, early morning.

A carriage slowly pulled to a stop outside the gates of Heaven Dou City.

Wang Dong'er, having dressed carefully, stepped down from the carriage, paid the fare, and followed the flow of people into Heaven Dou City.

At this moment, she was dressed simply, draped in a long robe with a hood pulled over her head, her face concealed by a mask.

There was no helping it.

The nobles of the Douluo Continent were not exactly pleasant; most were playboys among playboys. As the capital of the empire, Heaven Dou City was home to many such young noblemen.

If she entered the city without any disguise, she would surely be targeted.

As for entering the city disguised as a man... Wang Dong'er no longer wanted to leave her image in the dreams of the young girl she held in her arms—ahem! Just a joke.

Most importantly... what if she ran into some old pervert?
