"I finally broke through to level ninety!"
After completing the Soul Bones on his body, Qian Xunji's Soul Power naturally broke through to the Titled Douluo realm.
"Golden Bell, Silver Pestle!"
"I had you investigate information on Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts some time ago. How did it go?"
Even before absorbing the Soul Bones, Qian Xunji had sent the two elders, Golden Bell and Silver Pestle, to gather intelligence on Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.
Now that Qian Xunji had broken through level ninety, it was time for him to head to the Star Dou Great Forest and hunt his ninth Soul Ring.
"Reporting to Your Majesty!"
"Sacrificial phenomena have frequently appeared in the Star Dou Great Forest lately. Someone is suspected of hunting Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts. The two of us have failed in our duty this time and did not uncover the whereabouts of any Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts. We beg Your Majesty's forgiveness!"
Golden Bell spoke first. As merely a low-level Titled Douluo, he simply did not dare venture deep into the Star Dou Great Forest.
There had only been so many Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest to begin with. Xia Mu's family had taken and consumed most of them. Seeing this, the remaining Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts hid themselves away tightly. How could they dare show themselves outside?
After painstakingly searching the area, the two elders found only several eighty- or ninety-thousand-year Soul Beasts. As for the rare Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, they had not even found a trace of one.
"Very good!"
"When I send you two to do something, it's always either wind or rain. And you still dare make excuses to fob me off!"
Qian Xunji's face darkened with displeasure.
"Your Majesty!"
"This is not our fault!"
"Those Soul Beasts have hidden themselves far too well.
