Qian Shengyuan brought Ah Rou back to the lakeshore, golden net and all, and erected a sealed Soul Power barrier around her.
Trapped inside, Ah Rou struggled less and less. At last, she curled up in a corner of the barrier, her red eyes fixed through the golden net on the Sky Azure Bull Python's corpse by the lakeshore. Her long ears slowly drooped.
"A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit." Qian Shengyuan glanced at Ah Rou, then turned to Li Long. "She's old enough, and her attributes favor agility and flexibility. Once you break through to Titled Douluo, you can use her as your ninth Soul Ring. Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts are hard to find. We've already hunted the two in the Core Area of Star Dou Great Forest. There are a few deeper in, but they're scattered too far apart. Finding and hunting them would cost us dearly. Keeping her will save us the trouble of searching for another."

In less than half an hour, several Titled Douluo arrived at the lake from the Outer Area of Star Dou Great Forest. They processed the Sky Azure Bull Python's corpse and transported it away in batches.
Ah Rou was placed in a specially made Soul Tool prison and escorted back to Spirit City. There, she was confined in a sealed area deep within Spirit Hall to await further arrangements.
