"Help me?!"

Ye Guyi stared at Ye Han in astonishment.

Confusion churned in her eyes, and for the first time, she looked discouraged.

"Would it really work? Bibi Dong is the inheritor of a god! In no more than twenty years, she'll inherit the Rakshasa Godhood!"

"According to later records, even Tang San, after inheriting the Sea God, couldn't defeat her one-on-one. He only killed her after becoming a dual-god entity!"

By this point, Ye Guyi looked even more dejected.

"So we simply can't be Bibi Dong's match! And..."

"Xiaohan, you have no obligation to face an enemy you can't possibly defeat! You understand that, right?"

With an inheritor destined to become a god standing before them, she could not see even the slightest chance of victory.

"I don't understand what you mean by 'can't possibly win'!"

Ye Han suddenly stepped forward, blazing fire burning in his eyes as he said firmly,

"Sister Guyi, the later records only describe the final outcome. We can absolutely rewrite the process and stop her before she becomes a god!!"

"You're not alone. You have me, and you have the Qian Household too. We can join forces with Qian Renxue, the current inheritor of the Angel God, and fight Bibi Dong together!!"

"Don't forget, Qian Renxue ultimately became a god as well. She inherited the Angel God, and even did so earlier than Bibi Dong! As long as you want this, we have an absolute chance of victory!!"

"Even if something enormous happens, I'll stand behind you, support you, and back you up!!"

Originally, Ye Han had not wanted to involve himself in the muddy waters of Martial Soul Hall.

After all, in his eyes, the people in Martial Soul Hall were all idiots.

Whether it was Qian Daoliu and the other worshippers or Qian Renxue, not a single one of them had a brain.

He could not be bothered to explain the details. Anyone who had read the original work surely understood.

But for Sister Guyi, he was willing to be foolish once!!

"That's right!!"

Only after hearing this did Ye Guyi suddenly think of Qian Renxue.

If they told this ancestor the truth, perhaps they really could change everything!

Hope rose in her eyes, but the next instant, she looked at Ye Han in bewilderment.

"Xiaohan, why are you willing to help me? Opposing Bibi Dong carries deadly risks!!"

Ye Han slightly raised the Angel Ring on his right hand and said with utmost seriousness,

"Because this is my promise to Sister Guyi! A lifelong promise!!!"

He was absolutely not acting on a momentary impulse.

He had already prepared himself to face everything when he made that promise in the Star Dou Great Forest.

If you liked a girl, you had to take responsibility for her for the rest of your life!!!

(Has anyone read Fox Spirit Matchmaker?!)

"Ah?!!"

Ye Guyi's beautiful eyes suddenly contracted as she stared blankly at Ye Han.

Her lips moved a few times, but no sound came out.

"Xiaohan... thank you!!"

After a long while, Ye Guyi finally came back to herself and suddenly pulled Ye Han into her arms.

"Mmh~~"

Ye Han immediately felt a warm softness envelop him, spreading throughout his body.

But soon, a slightly scalding dampness seeped through the fabric at his shoulder and back.

The ever-strong Sister Guyi...

Was shedding little pearls right now...

She actually had such a fragile side too...

Ye Han said nothing. He merely stretched out his small arms and hugged her tightly as well.

At a time like this, silent support was the best comfort and response.

Not far away, Xiao Wu finally hurried out.

Ye Han had told her earlier not to come out, which was why she had stayed inside.

The moment she emerged and saw the scene before her, the uninformed Xiao Wu felt so sour she could die!

What was so good about this human woman that Lord Dragon God cared about her so much?!

No, no! Lord Dragon God had to be compromising temporarily for the revival of the soul beast race!

After a long while.

Once Ye Han sensed that Ye Guyi's mood had improved, he softly said,

"Sister Guyi, it's getting late. Shall we go back and rest?"

"Tomorrow morning, we'll head to Sunset Forest and grow stronger first!"

"After that, we'll find your ancestor, Qian Renxue, and discuss how to oppose Bibi Dong!"

Hearing this, Ye Guyi finally released him and nodded heavily.

"Mhm, alright! Let's return to the inn and rest."

As she spoke, she picked up the tiny Ye Han and headed back toward the inn.

Ye Han looked at her and noticed that her beautiful eyes were red and still glistened with tears.

And the way she looked at him seemed to have changed somewhat.

Before, it had been the indulgent affection of an older sister toward a younger brother. Now, there was a faint heat within it.

It was as if she no longer saw him as a child, but as someone she could rely on...

Xiao Wu watched this from nearby, feeling even more sour as she puffed up her cheeks and followed them back to the inn.

She had heard their conversation just now too. Learning that they were going to oppose Bibi Dong made her happy at once.

Lord Dragon God was planning to create internal strife within Martial Soul Hall and destroy it from within? Too amazing!

However.

Just after Ye Han and the other two returned to the inn.

A purple figure quietly withdrew from the corner of a building some distance away.

Whoosh!!!

That purple figure was none other than Zi Ji, whom Gu Yuena had sent to investigate!

She had only arrived not long ago, coming when Xiao Wu had left the inn earlier.

In only a brief moment, she had grasped the general situation.

"This is unbelievable! I must immediately return and report to my lord!"

Zi Ji muttered to herself as she sped back toward the Star Dou Great Forest.

"That human brat not only has Lord Golden Dragon King's bloodline in his body, he even has my lord's bloodline!"

"The Golden-Silver Dragon King Bloodline exists as one—he is practically the Dragon God reincarnated! But why has he become human, and why is he so close to humans?!"

"And there's even that hundred-thousand-year rabbit from Star Dou Forest beside him. They seem quite friendly too. Is he on the humans' side or the soul beasts' side?!"

Everything was beyond Zi Ji's understanding.

At this moment, she had only one thought: return quickly and report to her lord.

As for whether she might lose track of them, she was not too worried. She had heard Ye Han's conversation earlier.

Their next destination was Sunset Forest, a soul beast forest she knew extremely well!

Time flashed by.

In the blink of an eye, the sun was already high in the sky.

"Xiaohan, let's go!"

"Mhm, mhm!"

Ye Guyi released her Holy Angel Martial Soul, spreading her six wings.

Holding the tiny Ye Han in her arms, she set off toward Sunset Forest.

Oh, right. There was also that spoiled little rogue rabbit, Xiao Wu.

She was a Soul Ring and Soul Bone they would need in the future, so they could not lose her.

Meanwhile.

In the small world within Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Zi Ji had already returned and recounted everything she had seen.

"What?!"

"Zi Ji! Are you telling the truth?!!"

The several great fierce beasts present, including Gu Yuena, were all stunned.

"A human brat possesses both the Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King bloodlines?!!"

Zi Ji did not dare conceal anything and replied with utmost respect and solemnity,

"My lord! Every word I said is absolutely true. There is not a single false word!!"

Upon hearing this, the fierce beasts immediately erupted into commotion again.

Di Tian, who stood at the front, was the first to speak, volunteering himself.

"My lord, I am willing to leave immediately, capture that human brat, and interrogate him thoroughly!"

The other fierce beasts all nodded in agreement.

Even Xiong Jun, who usually did not get along with him, agreed.

"Presumptuous!!"

A sharp glint flashed through Gu Yuena's purple eyes as she rebuked them with authority.

"How dare any of you offend someone who bears the bloodlines of both Dragon Kings?!"

"Let alone you—even I cannot offend him when it comes to bloodline!!"

Di Tian shuddered from the rebuke, yet he still insisted somewhat stubbornly,

"But, my lord... he is human now, after all? And he is even with someone from Martial Soul Hall's Angel Clan..."

"If we don't use force, what else can we do?!"

Gu Yuena shot him a fierce glare and continued majestically,

"Zi Ji also said just now that the rabbit from our Star Dou Forest is following him!"

"Since he has not harmed that rabbit, it is enough to show that he bears no clear hostility toward our soul beast race!"

"So..."

"I have decided to first use a gentler method. I will personally disguise myself as a human, approach him, and investigate the matter thoroughly!"
