"Awroo~"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion listened to Ye Han's question and felt his caress.

In the end, she let out a soft whimper and nodded her little head ever so slightly.

"Such a good girl~ Then you'll have to obediently follow me from now on~"

Ye Han pulled her into his arms and turned to the others.

"Since that's settled, let's go hunt my third Soul Ring!"

"Old man, do you know if Sunset Forest has any powerful dragon-type Soul Beasts around ten thousand years old?!"

As soon as he said this, everyone's gaze fell on Dugu Bo.

"Hmm, this..."

After giving it some careful thought, Dugu Bo immediately ingratiated himself.

"Young Friend Ye, this old man has occupied Sunset Forest for many years and knows its Soul Beasts like the back of his hand!"

"I happen to know of a top-tier draconic Soul Beast that's over ten thousand years old!"

Only a draconic beast?!

Ye Han frowned slightly.

But a draconic beast would do.

How many true dragons could Douluo Continent possibly have?

Then Dugu Bo continued.

"However, that draconic Soul Beast leans toward destruction and tyranny in its attributes. I don't know whether it suits your tastes."

Ye Han's eyes lit up.

Destruction! That was an exceedingly rare attribute!

His Golden Dragon Martial Soul possessed only strength and an overbearing physical body.

But its ultimate form was the Golden Dragon King, which wielded the Destruction Godhood. The destruction attribute was a perfect match!

"What's it called?!"

Ye Han asked curiously.

"The Amethyst Tyrant Dragon God!"

Dugu Bo immediately replied respectfully.

Tyrant Dragon God...

Ye Han froze for a moment.

Wasn't that the name of the villainous boss from The Adventures of Robo?

Was I still asleep? Even Tyrant Dragon God had come to Douluo Continent?!

At the side, Ye Guyi's eyes flickered slightly upon hearing this.

"Really? It's said to be among the very best of draconic Soul Beasts!!"

"It can crush the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, hailed as the strongest dragon-type Martial Soul of this era. Even among true dragons, it ranks in the upper-middle tier!"

Dugu Bo nodded with complete certainty and conviction.

"Great! No time to waste—lead the way!!"

Ye Han's eyes shone even brighter after hearing that, and he immediately became impatient.

Unlike his excitement, Xiao Wu and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion seemed uncomfortable.

After all, they were Soul Beasts. They couldn't possibly be happy about something like this.

Of course, neither said anything openly. They simply followed in silence.

The group passed through layer upon layer of dense forest.

They headed deep northwest, toward Dark Canyon.

With two Titled Douluo accompanying them, they encountered no obstacles along the way.

The Soul Beasts they passed sensed their auras and had long since scattered in terror.

After roughly two and a half incense sticks' worth of time.

The group finally arrived at the entrance to a dark canyon.

"Roar roar!!"

A low, savage dragon roar faintly echoed from the depths.

It carried a destructive aura that shook loose stones from the canyon walls.

"It's in there!"

Dugu Bo lowered his voice and warned them.

"Though that Soul Beast is only ten thousand years old, it can contend with ordinary Soul Beasts several times its age!"

"Of course, it is nothing to this old man. Just don't stray too far from me!"

The moment his words fell, a sudden change occurred.

"ROAR!!!"

A massive purple figure abruptly flew out from the depths of the canyon.

Boom!!

With a flash of purple light, it crashed down a hundred meters ahead.

It was unmistakably a Soul Beast, shaped like a Western dragon.

The scales beneath its belly were milky white, while its back and limbs were covered in dark-purple crystal armor.

Under the sunlight, they reflected dazzling purple radiance, and its spread dragon wings blotted out the sky.

Savage destruction surged in its dragon eyes, while a terrifying aura swept in all directions.

It was clearly a ten-thousand-year Soul Beast!

"13,278 years!!"

Ye Han's eyes lit up. This was somewhat beyond his expectations.

With the Dragon God Bloodline, he could easily discern a Soul Beast's exact age.

"It really is the Amethyst Tyrant Dragon God!!"

A sharp gleam flashed through Ye Guyi's eyes.

"This Soul Beast is exceptionally cruel and savage, taking pleasure in devouring living creatures!"

"Only when the male father dragon dies in battle outside will the female mother dragon produce offspring!"

"Once the male hatchlings reach adulthood, they kill and devour all their male siblings, keeping only their female sisters for reproduction!"

"If there are no female sisters, they will even reproduce directly with their own mothers! That is why their numbers in this world are exceedingly scarce!"

Damn!

Ye Han was utterly numb.

Wasn't this incest?!

This thing was simply inhuman...

Well, it wasn't human to begin with!

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion both felt disgusted and no longer had the slightest sympathy for its impending death.

"ROAR!!!"

After briefly observing them.

The Amethyst Tyrant Dragon God roared and brazenly unleashed a mouthful of dragon breath at them.

The dragon breath was mixed with countless crystals and contained the power of destruction.

"Such a petty trick! Watch this old man!!"

Dugu Bo immediately stepped forward, possessing himself with the Jade Phosphor Snake Emperor.

He could use this Soul Beast to test the strength he had just gained from his breakthrough.

It would also help him earn more favor with Ye Han. After all, his granddaughter's Martial Soul defect still depended on Ye Han!

However, before he could attack.

"Archangel Avatar!!"

Ye Guyi struck first, possessing herself with the Sacred Twelve-Winged Archangel.

As she unleashed her Martial Soul Avatar, her Martial Soul rapidly expanded in size.

In an instant, it became no smaller than the Amethyst Tyrant Dragon God.

"ROAR!!"

Yet this only enraged the Amethyst Tyrant Dragon God further.

Not only did it refuse to retreat, it accelerated the purple destructive dragon breath pouring from its mouth.

Even facing a rank ninety-four Titled Douluo, it still dared to attack.

Will of Tyranny!!!

"Archangel—Solar Sacred Sword!!!"

Ye Guyi gripped the holy sword in her hand and swung it fiercely.

Driving the Archangel Avatar forward, she met the dragon breath head-on.

Rumble!!!

The Solar Sacred Sword collided violently with the dragon breath.

Under the immense disparity in strength and the suppression of attributes.

Ye Guyi's sword effortlessly cleaved apart the dragon breath and struck the dragon's body.

"Raaaargh!!!"

After letting out a painful, miserable roar.

The enormous dragon body crashed heavily to the ground, kicking up dust that filled the sky.

"Xiaohan, hurry up and finish it off!"

Ye Guyi urged.

"Got it! Sister Guyi, you're amazing!!"

Ye Han answered and immediately moved forward.

But after the Amethyst Tyrant Dragon God twitched twice, it completely lost all signs of life.

A deep black Soul Ring slowly rose from its corpse.

"???"

Ye Han was instantly dumbfounded.

Damn, she had one-shot it with a single strike?!

She hadn't even left it alive!

A Soul Ring could only be absorbed by the one who killed the beast!

"Uh, this..."

Dugu Bo was dumbfounded as well. Amid his embarrassment, a chill crept up his spine.

This woman was far too ruthless. Who would dare marry her in the future?!

Wouldn't her husband be completely controlled by her and become henpecked?!

Xiao Wu and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion exchanged a glance, unsure what to say.

"Ah! Xiaohan, Sister didn't mean to accidentally..."

Ye Guyi was stunned as well.

Her strength had increased too much too suddenly, and she had failed to control her force properly.

"Sigh, it's fine, it's fine, Sister Guyi. Let's keep looking!"

Ye Han did not blame her and walked forward.

"I can't use the Soul Ring, but its remains are still valuable. I'll go collect them."

Yet when he approached, he was shocked to discover that the Soul Ring was tugging at him.

?

A question mark seemed to pop up above Ye Han's head.

Was it because of the Dragon God Bloodline... Impossible!

Could it be... because I have a Soul Contract with Sister Guyi?!

Holy crap! A Soul Contract could actually be used like this!!

"Sister Guyi, it looks like I can absorb it!"

Ye Han smiled, then immediately sat down cross-legged without hesitation.

He grabbed the Soul Ring and absorbed it in an instant!!

"???"

This time, Ye Guyi, Dugu Bo, and the others were the ones left dumbfounded.

Bro~

You didn't kill this Soul Beast, so how could you absorb its Soul Ring?!

Could it be...

Ye Guyi quickly came to a certain conclusion and thought to herself.

It must be the effect of the Soul Contract. It can actually share the spoils of a kill!

It seems this contract is even more extraordinary than I imagined. It will need further investigation in the future!
