Tap! Tap! Tap!
The Holy Light Unicorn completely ignored Qian Jun, who stood in its way. Stepping on holy light, it lightly leaped behind him.
"Jiang Mo! What are you standing around for? Stop it! Don't let that beast get near Xiaoxue!"
Qian Jun turned around and shouted sternly at Jiang Mo. At the same time, a trace of confusion flashed through his eyes. That fifty-thousand-year-old beast had actually ignored the pressure of his Soul Power and charged straight past him.
Jiang Mo also summoned his Martial Soul, the Coiling Dragon Staff. However, he did not attack. He merely kept Qian Renxue tightly behind him and stared strangely at the unicorn before him.
At such close range, he could not sense even the slightest hostility from the unicorn.
It was truly rather strange.
"Uncle Jiang Mo, can I get a little closer and take a look at it?" At that moment, a soft voice sounded from behind Jiang Mo.
Tilting her head, Qian Renxue observed the fifty-thousand-year-old soul beast from behind Jiang Mo. She looked into the unicorn's eyes and found that it was looking back at her as well.
For some reason, she could see a hint of submission in the eyes of this fifty-thousand-year-old Holy Light Unicorn.
How strange. Why did she suddenly feel close to it? She really wanted to pet it.
Qian Renxue's large eyes shone with deep confusion.
Neigh!
Upon seeing Qian Renxue, the Holy Light Unicorn let out an ethereal cry, its eyes bursting with longing!
It wanted to approach her! It wanted to be close to her!
Blocked by Jiang Mo before it, the unicorn could not move forward. It could only cry out again and again, its melodious, ethereal calls carrying obvious impatience.
"You want to get close to it?"
Seeing the Holy Light Unicorn's strange behavior, Jiang Mo frowned, his gaze shifting back and forth between Qian Renxue and the unicorn.
What exactly was going on?
Qian Jun retreated to Jiang Mo's side. By now, he had also noticed that something was wrong.
Under normal circumstances, a soul beast of this level could not possibly appear on the outskirts of the Star Great Forest. Even if they were incredibly unlucky enough to encounter one, humans and soul beasts would certainly erupt into battle immediately!
But this scene before them...
"Uncle Qian Jun, Uncle Jiang Mo, I can sense that it means no harm."
Qian Renxue looked at the increasingly agitated Holy Light Unicorn and spoke seriously to the two men.
"This..."
Qian Jun and Jiang Mo gripped their Coiling Dragon Staffs tightly, finding it difficult to make a decision.
Of course, they could sense that the unicorn bore no hostility. But merely because of that, they did not dare allow Qian Renxue to approach it.
If anything went wrong, they would never be able to answer to the Grand Consecrator!
"Uncle Qian Jun, Uncle Jiang Mo, I'll only get a little closer. It really doesn't mean any harm!"
Seeing that Qian Jun and Jiang Mo still did not budge, Qian Renxue immediately grew anxious!
She had a feeling that this Holy Light Unicorn had come for her, and it definitely had not come to hurt her!
Qian Renxue had more or less guessed why this fifty-thousand-year-old soul beast had suddenly appeared in the outskirts and charged directly toward her. It was most likely related to Lord Heavenly Dao!
This fifty-thousand-year-old soul beast was most likely a gift from Lord Heavenly Dao!
As for what use this fifty-thousand-year-old soul beast would have as a gift, Qian Renxue did not know. But she knew it could not possibly be a bad thing!
Seeing Qian Renxue preparing to dart out from behind them and approach the Holy Light Unicorn, Qian Jun and Jiang Mo revealed helplessness in their eyes.
"Xiaoxue!"
Jiang Mo grabbed Qian Renxue with one large hand and lifted her up, restraining her in an instant. "Don't run around! That soul beast is fifty thousand years old! If it hurts you, the two of us would be guilty beyond redemption!"
"Uncle Jiang Mo, it really doesn't mean any harm!" Qian Renxue explained indignantly.
At that moment, Qian Renxue deeply felt the sorrow of being weak!
She had been snatched up like a little chick!
Neigh!
Seeing Qian Renxue seized and pulled behind Jiang Mo, the unicorn let out another cry.
It wanted to charge forward, but after sensing the pressure of the two Titled Douluos, its hooves involuntarily stopped again.
It could only continue pacing in circles.
"Jiang Mo, something's strange here!"
Qian Jun glanced at Qian Renxue, who was nearly crying from anxiety, and spoke to Jiang Mo in a somewhat peculiar tone.
The two brothers were of the same generation as Qian Xunji, and Qian Renxue was a child they had watched grow up.
The brothers knew Qian Renxue's personality quite well.
She was obedient, sensible, well-behaved, and intelligent.
Based on her usual character, Qian Renxue would never dare charge forward when facing a fifty-thousand-year-old soul beast.
She would certainly listen obediently to the brothers and wisely hide away long ago.
How could she be acting like this now...
As if she could not wait to rush straight toward the soul beast!
It was like she was actively seeking death!
"It is rather strange."
Qian Jun could see it, and naturally Jiang Mo could see it as well.
From the sudden appearance of a fifty-thousand-year-old soul beast on the outskirts to Qian Renxue now wanting nothing more than to rush before it.
This journey into the Star Great Forest was steeped in a strange atmosphere at every turn.
"How about we let Xiaoxue try making contact with it?"
Qian Jun looked at the still-aggrieved Qian Renxue and somewhat wanted to let her try.
"No. You know Xiaoxue's talent. A God-tier Martial Soul, innate Soul Power at rank twenty! She will certainly become a rank ninety-nine Titled Douluo in the future! If something happens, none of us can bear the consequences!"
"I'm not saying we should let her approach it directly. We can first suppress this unicorn, and after confirming that it is completely safe, let Xiaoxue get close and try." Qian Jun offered a suggestion.
"This..."
Jiang Mo frowned and looked uncertainly at the unicorn. After all, it was a fifty-thousand-year-old soul beast. Even they could not guarantee complete safety.
"Stop hesitating! Look at Xiaoxue. If you don't agree, she definitely won't settle down afterward."
Qian Jun looked at Jiang Mo. "And don't forget Xiaoxue's Martial Soul. This trip to the Star Great Forest has been strange from the start. Perhaps it is guidance from the Angel God!"
"Guidance from the Angel God?!"
Jiang Mo trembled. Thinking of all the strange things that had happened on this journey, his gaze could not help but change.
He looked at Qian Renxue, then at the unicorn still pacing in circles without any desire to attack, and made his decision!
"Fine! Let's try it!"
Jiang Mo set Qian Renxue down and instructed her solemnly, "You can approach it, but only after your Uncle Qian Jun and I suppress it first! Otherwise, we won't be at ease!"
"During that time, do not go near it. Stay far away, understand?"
"Mm-hmm!"
Seeing that the two had finally relented, Qian Renxue hurriedly nodded her little head. Then she glanced in the unicorn's direction.
Seeing the unicorn's anxious expression, Qian Renxue suddenly spoke as though possessed.
"Don't resist, okay? It won't hurt."
"Neigh!"
After hearing Qian Renxue's words, the unicorn suddenly stopped pacing in circles, and its gaze became much gentler and more natural.
"!"
Qian Jun and Jiang Mo exchanged shocked looks. What was going on?
Since when had a fifty-thousand-year-old Holy Light Unicorn been so obedient?
A little girl who was not even a soul master had "subdued" a fifty-thousand-year-old soul beast with a single sentence...
Honestly, it was a little frightening!
After living for so many years, this was the first time they had ever seen something like this!
Seeing the unicorn like this, Qian Renxue was equally shocked. Yet this only made her more certain that it was Lord Heavenly Dao's doing!
Otherwise, how could a little girl who had not even become a soul master possess such great ability?
Lord Heavenly Dao was truly amazing~
