Figure and Temper Equally Fiery

Though the woman was beautiful and voluptuous, her temper was even hotter than her figure. Her face was full of resentment and unwillingness, making her look like a living volcano that could erupt at any moment.

Her identity was none other than Liu Erlong, the Mother Tyrannosaur and one of the original Golden Triangle love triangle.

Following behind Liu Erlong was a thin, lanky elder in gray. His voice was low but respectful. "Miss, my task is to help you obtain your fourth Soul Ring, then escort you back to the academy or home."

After speaking, he did not forget to add, "This is Second Master's order."

Upon hearing the words "Second Master," Liu Erlong's eyes reddened. All the grievances in her heart seemed to erupt at that moment as she turned and glared furiously at the gray-clothed elder.

"Second Master, Second Master—it's that Bastard again! I graduated from the academy long ago. As for home, where do I still have a home? If he really cared that much, he wouldn't have dared to do it without taking responsibility back then, and my mother wouldn't have died in sorrow!"

"Miss, please watch your words. No matter what, Second Master is still your biological father." The gray-clothed elder let out a quiet sigh.

Every family had its own troubles. This so-called Second Master was none other than Yu Luomian, the second-in-command of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

However, because he had fathered Liu Erlong with a woman of the streets, Yu Luomian did not dare bring this illegitimate daughter home in a place like the Douluo Continent, where lineage mattered greatly. He had kept her outside and let her take her mother's surname.

Fortunately, Liu Erlong was quite talented. Just past twenty, she had already reached the rank of Soul Ancestor and broken through Level Forty.

Yu Luomian had also secretly looked after her quite a bit over the years.

Aside from sending her to a Soul Master Academy that only nobles could attend,

whenever Liu Erlong reached a Soul Power bottleneck, he would send the gray-clothed elder to obtain a Soul Ring for her.

Yet none of this could ever make up for the lack of fatherly love in Liu Erlong's heart, nor the pain of losing her mother at such a young age.

Just then, a rustling sound of leaves rubbing together came from deep within the forest, drawing both of their attention.

"Sounds like someone's there. Come on, let's take a look." Without giving the gray-clothed elder a chance to refuse, Liu Erlong darted into the forest in a single stride.

She quickly vanished from the gray-clothed elder's sight.

"Miss... sigh." Looking toward where Liu Erlong had disappeared, the gray-clothed elder felt rather helpless.

Then he remembered that most of the Soul Beasts in this Soul Beast Forest were only thousand-year ones, while ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts were almost nonexistent.

Those who came to hunt Soul Rings were at most Soul Ancestors or Soul Kings. There should not be any danger.

With the intention of humoring Liu Erlong, he followed after her.

Once her curiosity was satisfied, this little ancestor should settle down, right? The gray-clothed elder comforted himself inwardly.

The two vanished into the forest one after the other.

Liu Erlong stopped in a clearing deep within the forest as a figure swept past through the air ahead of her.

She instinctively looked up. Long hair cascaded like a waterfall and drifted gracefully in the wind, revealing a perfect half-profile that looked as though it had been carved by a mountain spring.

Even more eye-catching was his tall, upright figure and the noble, kingly aura naturally carried by the Vermilion Bird, as though it had been bestowed by Heaven itself.

For most women in the world, a single glance like that was enough to become eternal.

If not for the fact that he was carrying a pregnant woman in his arms.

A pregnant woman?

Wait, a pregnant woman?

Bringing a pregnant woman into the Soul Beast Forest—had she encountered some pervert with a human face and beastly heart who had a thing for pregnant women?

Mm-hmm. The Mother Tyrannosaur, whose personality was as fiery as her figure and whose mind was simple while her limbs were well-developed, had begun imagining things again.

Meanwhile, Qin Xuan had noticed her long ago. At the instant their paths crossed, he merely cast her a sidelong glance before losing interest.

"Husband, do you know that girl?" Jing Ni asked softly.

Qin Xuan smiled. "She's probably some noble young lady from a Soul Master family. No need to pay her any attention."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Erlong's furious roar sounded from behind them. "Beast! Let that girl go right now!"

Liu Erlong chased after them relentlessly. She thought of her mother, who had been ruthlessly abandoned by Yu Luomian while pregnant and left alone and helpless.

If that pregnant woman were violated by this pervert with a human face and beastly heart, she would surely end up just like her mother because of society's prejudices.

"Are you sure you don't know her? Why does she seem like she knows you?" Jing Ni turned back to glance at Liu Erlong and asked in confusion.

She had not been in this world for long and had yet to fully master the language of the Douluo Continent. She could not sense any killing intent from Liu Erlong.

But the anger was especially obvious. Those dark, bright eyes seemed ready to spit fire, as though Liu Erlong were looking at some scumbag who had abandoned his lover after getting her pregnant.

"I really don't know her. That girl is yelling at me. Uh... anyway, once you learn this world's language, you'll understand."

Qin Xuan's face twitched violently. Carrying Jing Ni, he landed on the ground and gently set her down after turning around.

At this moment, Liu Erlong caught up. The fullness beneath her neck rose and fell violently from her all-out sprint, tracing one breathtaking curve after another.

"Miss, don't be afraid. I'll save you right now."

"Beast, if you know what's good for you, let her go immediately. Otherwise, I'll make you regret it."

She first spoke to reassure Jing Ni, then swung her right fist. Flames flickered in her palm as she charged straight at Qin Xuan.

Qin Xuan leaned his upper body slightly backward and easily dodged Liu Erlong's punch. When she missed, she lightly pushed off the ground with her right foot and flew into the air, sweeping a whip kick toward the side of Qin Xuan's head.

And then there was no then.

Qin Xuan took half a step back and avoided Liu Erlong's whip kick. Having lost her target, Liu Erlong's body hung in the air before slowly falling.

As one of Blue Star's model young men, Qin Xuan felt that he ought to cherish women.

He opened his arms, and Liu Erlong fell into his embrace.

The two stared wide-eyed at each other as an ambiguous atmosphere quietly spread.

Qin Xuan did not feel much.

He had seen plenty of beautiful women.

Not to mention that Jing Ni behind him was a peerless beauty.

Though the woman in his arms was beautiful, she was still far from Bibi Dong's level, much less the wild Ah Yin who had yet to meet Brother Haozi.

Even Big Shark in Slaughter City was no less beautiful than this young lady.

Qin Xuan lowered his gaze. What a surging sight—but such a mere weapon could not shake his Dao heart.

Liu Erlong, however, had it much worse. Faced with Qin Xuan's move of killing with an embrace, she practically turned into a steam girl in an instant.

"I say, little sister, did you misunderstand something?" Qin Xuan felt rather speechless as he slowly set Liu Erlong down.

If he had not seen that she meant no harm and had merely let good intentions cause trouble,

then with the decisive ruthlessness Qin Xuan had developed during his year in Slaughter City, he would have taken her life long ago.

Even now, they still didn't know each other?

Jing Ni looked at Qin Xuan in confusion. She could not understand a word of their conversation.

But in Liu Erlong's eyes, that was clearly the look of someone being threatened and too afraid to call for help. Her anger rose higher and higher.

"Bastard! Who are you calling little sister, you lecher? You clearly look even younger than me, yet you're committing the crime of abducting an innocent woman! I am a Level Forty-One assault-type Battle Soul Ancestor. Today, I'm going to teach you a proper lesson."
