185. Intercepted Again!

The reason why the Spirit Hall captured the Three-Eyed Golden Lion is a long story.

Ever since Xu Nian'an snatched Xiao Rou, who is also Xiao Wu's mother, Bibi Dong has been harboring a lot of resentment.

Not long after, several more hunts were organized. Although these hunts were not entirely satisfactory, at least some were successful.

A year ago, in order to become stronger, Bibi Dong sent people into the Star Dou Forest to search for any powerful Soul Beast worth hunting.

Persistence pays off; after nearly half a year of searching...

The people of the Spirit Hall discovered a strange Soul Beast. This Soul Beast had golden hair and fur all over its body, like amber, and exuded a noble aura.

Of course, it wasn't just his appearance and demeanor that attracted the attention of the Spirit Hall personnel.

What caught the attention of the Spirit Hall members was the strange behavior of this Soul Beast.

This Soul Beast has never been mentioned in historical records... or perhaps it has appeared. Based on the physical characteristics of its canine counterparts, it should be around a hundred years old.

However, it has the power to suppress even millennia-old spirit beasts, and even Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast can only cower and hide when they see it.

Of course, that's not even the weirdest part.

What's even stranger is that any other Soul Beast that has fought with this Soul Beast will inevitably exhibit only one reaction: to flee.

Whether it's a hundred years, a thousand years, or ten thousand years... as long as this Soul Beast wants to eat, the Soul Beast can only hide. They don't even have the courage to put up a fight in front of this Soul Beast.

Their strange behavior quickly drew the attention of the Spirit Hall.

Until one day...

A member of the Spirit Hall witnessed the Titan Giant Ape, the king of the Star Dou Forest, kneeling and bowing to the little Soul Beast, showing a subservient attitude.

He even personally lifted the other person high and placed them on his shoulders.

This is Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!

Their extremely bizarre behavior quickly attracted the attention of the Spirit Hall's higher-ups, and even alarmed Pope Bibi Dong.

According to the speculations of the Spirit Hall's higher-ups, this Soul Beast is either of noble and powerful bloodline, possessing the strength to fight beyond its level.

Or perhaps this Soul Beast is exceptionally precious to the entire Soul Beast tribe, symbolizing the Emperor of the human world.

People usually have only one attitude towards Emperor.

Respect.

This Soul Beast embodies all the characteristics of a human Emperor, from the Titan Giant Ape, the king of the forest, to Ten-Year Soul Beast.

Therefore, not long ago, the Pope of the Spirit Hall personally ordered its capture and brought back to the Spirit Hall for research. When someone in the Spirit Hall is short of Soul Ring, they can release the aura of this Soul Beast to lure one or two to kill. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

Moreover, Soul Beast that even the King of the Forest, who has lived for 100,000 years, treats with respect might attract other Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

Therefore, one of Bibi Dong's henchmen, Ghost Douluo, was tasked with capturing this Soul Beast and bringing it back to the Spirit Hall.

···

"Hehehe, little guy, you've given this old man quite a search, but... considering the bonus gift, I'll forgive you."

"Come with me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ghost Douluo clapped his hands together in the sky, and instantly, a giant hand swiftly reached out to grab the golden Soul Beast.

"Yes, it's them!!!"

Seeing the Martial Soul on Ghost Douluo's body, and the uniforms of the other people blocking the hotel entrance, Xiao Wu's pupils instantly contracted sharply.

Looking back on those days, if it weren't for my mother, I might have already...

Xiao Wu immediately lowered her head.

Years ago, she was unable to help her mother; even today, she still lacks the ability...

"How dare you! Get out of my Auspicious Beast!"

Roar~!!!

Just then, an extremely childish voice suddenly came from the little beast's mouth.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion opened its mouth, and a strong golden light shone forth.

Buzz~!!!!

"Ah~! Ah~!! Ah~!!!"

A series of screams suddenly rang out, and in mid-air, Ghost Douluo was uncontrollably revealed under the intense golden light!

"You bastard, you bastard, you don't know what's good for you, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a black Soul Ring flashed on Ghost Douluo's body, and a black armor that constantly emitted ghostly energy slowly appeared on his body.

In the sky, a giant ghostly hand appeared again. This time, before the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and Xiao Wu could react or resist, the giant black hand tightened instantly.

"Am I... am I going to die?"

"But... but I haven't found my mother yet, and I haven't avenged her!!!"

A flicker of resentment flashed in Xiao Wu's eyes, but it was all in vain; despair gradually filled the Xiao Wu in her heart.

···

"A talking Soul Beast... could it be... Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?"

"Damn, the Spirit Hall is really something else! They can capture Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast at will!"

"Is this Ghost Douluo? Could it be that he has also reached that threshold?"

A cacophony of voices immediately erupted.

Ghost Douluo completely ignored the comments and criticisms of others and directly bound the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and Xiao Wu tightly.

This is all thanks to my own achievements! If I bring such a generous gift to Bibi Dong this time, wouldn't my status in the Spirit Hall Spirit Hall and the resources I can obtain there increase several times over?

Hehehe... This round was a complete stomp on!

Just as Ghost Douluo was still gloating, outside the hotel, Xu Nian'an slowly turned around, looked at a pair of bright red eyes that lit up in the distance, and slowly raised the corners of her mouth.

"The show is about to begin!"

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Just then, the earth trembled, and everyone in the hotel was stunned for a moment.

Ghost Douluo sensed something was amiss in his surroundings. He glanced around and silently placed the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and Xiao Wu behind him.

"There's... a murderous aura!"

Click!

Rumble~!!!

Just then, the hotel began to shake violently, and the roof was suddenly ripped open, revealing a pair of enormous lanterns.

Wait... these aren't huge lanterns, they're a pair of blood-red, furious eyes!!!

Bang! Bang! Bang!!!

The next instant, a series of muffled groans and impacts resounded.

Roar~!!!!

Inside the hotel, everyone's head was buzzing.

Buzz~!!!

Immediately afterwards, I could no longer hear any sound in my ears.

As time passed, screams, cries of terror, wails, and pleas for mercy echoed incessantly.

Everyone in the Spirit Hall, including Ghost Douluo, snapped out of their daze.

Stare!

A Soul Saint- led Soul Hunting Squad suddenly took a step back, their eyes filled with fear as they watched the scene unfold before them.

"The King of the Forest, the Titan Giant Ape!!!"

Xu Nian'an was not afraid of the Titan Giant Ape because Xu Nian'an had the strength to kill it, but others would only have one word to say when facing the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, Titan Giant Ape Titan Giant Ape.

"Die!!!"

Bang!

Almost instantly, Ghost Douluo's seventh Soul Ring merged into his body.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Ghostly Avatar!"

"Take them with you!!!"

The moment the Martial Soul Avatar possessed him, Ghost Douluo threw the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and Xiao Wu at the other members of the Spirit Hall.

···

Seeing this scene in the shadows, Xu Nian'an smiled.

The Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, was captured by the Spirit Hall. What does that have to do with the Great Ming Empire?

His Great Ming Empire has both witnesses and physical evidence~

"Keep a close eye on them!"

The real show is about to begin! Xu Nian'an has chosen to steal the show once again, but this time Star Dou Forest... oh no, the entire continent is going to be in an uproar!
