Ah Yin forced a smile. The moment Bi Ji appeared before her, her sixth sense had begun ringing madly, warning her just how dangerous this seemingly gentle woman was.
Several Blue Silver Emperor vines silently burst from the ground, binding Bi Ji's legs tightly in an instant. Ah Yin did not dare launch another attack and immediately turned to flee.
"Hehe, it seems I misjudged you. So you're a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor in human form."
Bi Ji glanced at the Blue Silver Emperor vines around her legs and immediately guessed Ah Yin's identity.
Across the entire Douluo Continent, there could only ever be one Blue Silver Emperor. As long as the previous emperor had not died, no matter how highly cultivated the other Blue Silver Kings were, they could not advance any further.
Only a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor could possess such abundant life force.
A pair of wings silently emerged behind Bi Ji. With a gentle flap, she instantly appeared a thousand meters away. In the time it took to catch her breath, Bi Ji returned, dangling the fleeing Ah Yin from her hand.
"Big Sister, if I said I was forcibly brought here by someone, would you believe me?"
"What a naughty little girl. You actually secretly brought a human here."
Bi Ji's slender finger tapped Ah Yin's nose, then wandered across her face as though she were considering where to take her first bite.
"This little girl is so pretty that Big Sister can hardly bear to eat her in one bite."
Ah Yin inwardly sneered. She was already cursing that unreliable Qian Xunji to death in her heart.
That bastard who loved setting people up had actually left her here alone and run off to fight other soul beasts.
At the center of Star Dou Forest, a beautiful woman had appeared here. Ah Yin did not believe for a second that she was human!
Hearing Bi Ji say she wanted to eat her, Ah Yin screamed inwardly, It's over, it's over.
Qian Mochen, you're going to get me killed.
"Help—"
"Is anyone coming to save me?!"
Bi Ji watched with a beaming smile, showing no intention of stopping her. She lifted Ah Yin's chin with a fingertip and kindly reminded her, "Little Sister, go ahead and shout. Even if you scream your throat raw, no one would dare come here."
Yet the next second, the smile on Bi Ji's face suddenly froze.
"Bi Ji, only I get to bully my maid."
"Do me a favor and let her go."
The voice abruptly sounded beside Bi Ji's ear. She turned and saw Qian Mochen standing only a step behind her. Surprise and astonishment flashed through her eyes as she retreated hundreds of meters in an instant.
"You!"
"How did you get out?"
Qian Mochen removed the restraint on Ah Yin and looked at her questioningly. Was she alright?
Ah Yin nodded. The woman named Bi Ji had merely teased her a little.
Only then did Qian Mochen speak, answering Bi Ji's question.
"Naturally, I beat Di Tian up and came out."
"Oh, right. Di Tian and I had a pleasant chat just now. He should be off inviting the person I wanted to meet."
"Y-you... who exactly are you?"
Bi Ji watched Qian Mochen warily, searching her distant memories for the face before her.
He could call out their names so easily and even knew her master's location. Could he be a lackey of those gods from the God Realm?
At that thought, Bi Ji's gaze turned dangerous.
Qian Mochen guessed what Bi Ji was thinking and quickly warned, "I'm not one of those so-called gods from the God Realm. Don't do anything reckless, or when your master sees that I've beaten up all her subordinates and gets angry, won't I have to beat every last one of you up again?"
Just as Bi Ji was about to speak, Life Lake behind her burst apart. An aura engraved into her very instincts appeared, and Bi Ji immediately dropped to her knees, staring excitedly at the silver-haired woman walking at the front.
"Master!"
Gu Yuena's violet vertical pupils swept over Bi Ji. She gave a soft acknowledgment, then stopped only when she reached Qian Mochen's side.
Behind Qian Mochen, Ah Yin sensed Gu Yuena's aura. Her legs went weak, her pupils contracted, and she could barely speak without stammering.
"She... she... you..."
Ah Yin tremblingly grabbed Qian Mochen's sleeve, wanting to ask for the truth.
Qian Mochen's voice sounded beside her ear.
"That's right. The person I came to see is your master, the ruler of all soul beasts—the Silver Dragon King."
Seeing Ah Yin look terrified, Qian Mochen was somewhat displeased. "You're my maid now. Being this scared is just embarrassing me."
A trace of Qian Mochen's aura settled over Ah Yin, isolating Gu Yuena's presence.
Without that terrifying aura, Ah Yin calmed down. Yet she still did not dare look directly at the master before her. She quietly hid behind Qian Mochen, chanting inwardly, Master can't see me, can't see me!
Gu Yuena had been examining Qian Mochen the entire time. Sensing that trace of sacred aura on him, her cold and distant expression tightened slightly.
"You carry the aura of an unfamiliar god?"
Qian Mochen nodded. "My ancestor was the Angel God, who ascended from Douluo Continent a thousand years ago. You probably haven't heard of him."
"Gu Yuena, one of the reasons I came to find you this time was to discuss how we can strike back at the God Realm."
"Just you?"
"With my level ninety-six cultivation, I suppressed several of the great ferocious beasts under your command."
"And I'm human. Reaching level one hundred isn't a problem for me at all."
Gu Yuena spared a glance at Di Tian and the others behind her. Only then did she notice that, aside from Bi Ji, all her other subordinates were bruised and battered.
"The injuries on your faces were all inflicted by him alone?"
Di Tian, Lord Bear, and the other beasts nodded unwillingly.
Though they did not want to admit it, Qian Mochen really had beaten every one of them by himself.
"Master, it wasn't that we held back. This man's Soul Ring configuration is simply absurd. His lowest Soul Ring is fifty thousand years old!"
Qian Mochen revealed his nine Soul Rings.
That terrifying configuration—black, black, black, black, black, black, red, red, red—made even Gu Yuena's eyes flash with surprise.
The ironclad laws of Douluo Continent had actually been broken in this man.
Moreover, Qian Mochen's strength truly was only level ninety-six. If he inherited the Angel God's divine position and reached level one hundred, then with the two of them joining forces, they might truly be able to purge those hypocrites from the God Realm.
Since the Angel God Qian Mochen spoke of had ascended to the God Realm only a thousand years ago, he had no grudge against her soul beast clan.
"I can join forces with you." After considering Qian Mochen's value, Gu Yuena nodded lightly. "However, I need to borrow the Blue Silver Emperor by your side."
"What do you want her for?" Qian Mochen stepped forward, shielding Ah Yin behind him.
"The environment around Life Lake is most suitable for her cultivation. If she becomes an Ultimate Douluo, she can also contribute when we invade the God Realm in the future."
"That can be arranged."
Qian Mochen's gaze passed over Gu Yuena and examined the ferocious beasts behind her, including Di Tian. "Then let's sign a contract."
Gu Yuena did not refuse.
Qian Mochen immediately exchanged a contract from the System Mall, wrote down the terms, and handed it to Gu Yuena.
