Mother and Daughter Face Off! Qian Renxue Sees Through Bibi Dong!

Absorbing the Ice and Fire Immortal Herbs within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well had not actually been very difficult.

Tang San had struggled so much in the original story because his physical body truly could not compare to Song Ye's current one.

Song Ye had long since absorbed a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone and Thirty-Thousand-Year Whale Glue. His physique was already incredibly formidable.

After a full day and night, Ice and Fire Body Refining had made Song Ye's body even more robust.

The next day, seeing Song Ye's increasingly defined muscles and greatly increased strength, Bibi Dong said delightedly:

"Ye'er, judging by your current physique, it should be no weaker than a Soul King's, perhaps even close to a Soul Emperor's?"

Song Ye nodded with a smile. "More or less."

"In terms of spiritual power and physique, I am no weaker than a Soul King. I merely lack the corresponding Soul Power and skills."

"Now that I have reached level thirty, we should first go hunt Soul Beasts."

"Senior Dugu, please continue looking after this herb garden. Once I have obtained my Soul Ring, I will come find you and refine medicine for you."

But Dugu Bo merely waved dismissively. "Eh, with this old man's poison formation here, what is there to worry about in the herb garden?"

"Since you are hunting Soul Beasts, this old man will lend a hand as well."

Song Ye was startled. Could it be that Dugu Bo was afraid he would run away?

But it did not matter. With another Title Douluo's combat power, they would have a better chance of hunting a ten-thousand-year Soul Beast.

"In that case, thank you, Senior!"

Dugu Bo was not worried at all. He simply wanted to see whether someone in this world could truly obtain a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring with only three rings.

Thus, the three of them began searching for Soul Beasts in Sunset Forest.

Bibi Dong asked:

"Ye'er, have you thought of a target Soul Beast?"

Song Ye explained, "My first Soul Skill can enhance my spiritual power and speed."

"My second Soul Skill can create mental interference for enemies."

"For my third Soul Ring, I want to obtain an offensive ability!"

"It just so happens that I refined my body using Ice and Fire Immortal Herbs. If I can gain ice and fire abilities, then with the Immortal Herbs' effects, I will be able to wield Extreme Ice and Extreme Fire in battle!"

"Extreme attributes are the pinnacle of an element and can suppress all other non-extreme attributes of the same kind."

"So I want to see whether we can find a Soul Beast that has just entered the ten-thousand-year level and possesses both ice and fire attributes."

"Extreme attributes?"

Repeating the term Song Ye had coined, Bibi Dong murmured, "Ye'er, where did you learn of this concept?"

Song Ye smiled. "Naturally, I came to know it through some unseen means!"

"Mother, in the future, Ye'er will also think of a way to see whether you can obtain an extreme attribute!"

"Although my Martial Soul does not possess ice and fire power, if my Soul Skills carry ice and fire power, then when I use them, I can briefly possess the power of Extreme Ice and Extreme Fire!"

"Oh, right, Mother. I still do not know exactly what your Martial Soul is."

Song Ye suddenly thought of something and asked, "You always say your Martial Soul is too ugly and that you are afraid it will scare me."

"But what could possibly happen to me?"

Bibi Dong froze upon hearing this, then immediately explained:

"Ah, no... Ye'er, Mother cares rather a lot about appearances."

"You will find out sooner or later, anyway. For now, let's look for a Soul Beast."

Song Ye frowned slightly. He always felt that his mother was hiding many things from him.

From childhood until now, he did not even know what his mother's Martial Soul was.

Bibi Dong was helpless as well. The moment she released her Martial Soul, would she not expose herself as Bibi Dong?

Dugu Bo frowned as well, but he said nothing.

The three continued searching for Soul Beasts first.

Although ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts with both ice and fire attributes were difficult to find, they were not nonexistent. In the vast Sunset Forest, they would eventually find one.

Moreover, both Bibi Dong and Dugu Bo were Title Douluos. With their terrifying spiritual power sweeping the surroundings, even scanning the entirety of Sunset Forest would not be difficult.

However.

After searching for only about half a day, an unexpected incident occurred.

The three had originally been heading toward the other side of Sunset Forest, but halfway there, Bibi Dong and Dugu Bo suddenly stopped at the same time.

The two exchanged a look, as though they had discovered something.

Song Ye asked in confusion, "Mother, Senior, what is it?"

Dugu Bo spoke first. "It seems there is a powerful aura approaching from ahead."

"I do not know whether it is a Soul Beast or something else..."

A powerful aura?

Song Ye frowned and looked ahead. Before them stood a patch of tall shrubbery.

Could it be some Soul Beast that was tens of thousands of years old?

Yet just as he pondered this, the shrubbery ahead began to stir.

The aura drew closer and closer.

When the bushes were pushed aside, a burly man appeared, draped in a black robe that faintly revealed golden armor beneath it.

The moment Song Ye saw him, his expression turned solemn. Dugu Bo and Bibi Dong's expressions also became much more serious.

Then, in the next instant, another man in black robes emerged. The two led the way, and behind them appeared a woman clad in magnificent golden armor, with golden hair and breathtaking beauty.

The woman looked to be around twenty. She was youthful and radiant, with exquisite features and a perfect figure.

After appearing, the woman first assessed Song Ye and the others.

But when her gaze landed on Bibi Dong, her pupils suddenly contracted, as though she had seen something impossible.

Although she was shocked, the woman did not speak.

Meanwhile, Song Ye was also observing the woman and the two men, guessing who they were.

Dugu Bo remained vigilant, while Bibi Dong alone stood behind Song Ye.

When Bibi Dong saw the woman, her eyes also abruptly filled with astonishment, as though she had encountered someone extraordinary.

Her face immediately darkened, and her right hand clenched into a fist, seemingly displeased.

Of course, Bibi Dong had recognized who the woman opposite her was.

This young woman was no outsider. She was Qian Renxue, Bibi Dong's biological daughter, whom she had once sent to infiltrate the Heaven Dou Empire.

She had not expected that, while obtaining Ye'er's third Soul Ring, she would encounter her in Sunset Forest.

Bibi Dong became slightly wary, thinking:

It seems this girl is here to obtain a Soul Ring as well!

The ones beside her should be Ci Xue and She Long...

Fortunately, I disguised myself before coming here. But can this girl see through it?

Bibi Dong could not be sure whether Qian Renxue could see through her disguise.

At the very least, however, She Long and Ci Xue, the two Title Douluos assigned to protect Qian Renxue closely, had not recognized her.

Of course, Qian Renxue had actually seen through Bibi Dong's identity long ago. Otherwise, she would not have revealed that startled expression at the beginning.

It was merely because of certain special reasons that Qian Renxue still pretended not to recognize her.

At this moment.

Ci Xue, also known as Pufferfish Douluo, noticed the three of them and spoke first.

"Young Mistress, they are Title Douluos."

"It seems they have also brought a child out to obtain a Soul Ring. That child appears to be around nine years old!"

After hearing this, Qian Renxue nodded. Yet she continued staring at Bibi Dong, and her expression shifted more and more.

Only after a long while did Qian Renxue withdraw her gaze and look at Song Ye.

"My two uncles and I came to Sunset Forest to hunt Soul Beasts. We happened to sense a powerful aura and came to see whether there was a suitable Soul Beast here."

"I did not expect to encounter fellow travelers who were also here to obtain a Soul Ring."

"I presume this young friend has come with his elders to obtain his second Soul Ring?"

Hearing this, Song Ye did not answer directly, instead making his own guesses inwardly.

Judging from the woman's exquisite appearance and bearing, as well as the two great experts accompanying her, he also guessed that she was likely Qian Renxue from the original story.

However, he did not know whether she was friend or foe, so he could not act rashly...
