Leaving the Star Dou Great Forest
The next day!
After resting, the group left the Lake of Life and the Land of Great Evil it was located under the reluctant gazes of the Ferocious Beast.
Huo Yuhao waved goodbye to the Ferocious Beast and pulled Xiao Yin out of his Storage Soul Tool that could store living creatures.
"Ugh! Awooo!"
As soon as Xiao Yin emerged from the Storage Soul Tool, it couldn't wait to howl a few times towards the sky.
"Let's go, Xiao Yin!"
Huo Yuhao gently reached out and patted Xiao Yin's head, while taking out a sizzling, fragrant piece of roasted meat from his bracelet and feeding it to Xiao Yin.
Xiao Yin ate the roasted meat that Huo Yuhao had given her with a blissful expression. She felt that signing a contract with Huo Yuhao was definitely the wisest thing she had ever done.
Not only did she survive, but she can also cultivate and improve alongside Huo Yuhao in the future. She can also continue to eat the roasted meat that Huo Yuhao specially grills for her.
"Sister Qiu'er, hop on! Let's ride Xiao Yin out!"
"Good!"
Di Qiu'er didn't stand on ceremony and jumped onto Huo Yuhao's back seat in one stride.
Sitting on the back of Huo Yuhao's seat, Di Qiu'er glanced at the top of Huo Yuhao's head and said with a darting eye:
"Little brother Yuhao, this Silver Hero Beast doesn't even have a saddle, what if it falls off? Why don't you hold its head up, and I'll let you put down its dragon horns to support it?"
Upon hearing Di Qiu'er's words, Huo Yuhao trembled involuntarily. Yesterday, when Di Qiu'er touched his horn, he felt a tingling sensation all over his body. That feeling was very unpleasant.
"Sister Qiu'er, don't joke around. My horns feel itchy and uncomfortable to touch!"
Oh! I see!
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's rejection Di Qiu'er sighed in disappointment.
What exactly are you disappointed about?
Huo Yuhao thought to himself, then ignored Di Qiu'er and simply greeted her.
"Sister Qiu'er, hurry up! We're about to set off."
After saying that, Huo Yuhao patted Xiao Yin's head to indicate that they could set off.
Huo Yuhao!
Just as the two were about to set off, Di Tian called out to Huo Yuhao.
"Senior Di Tian, is there anything else?"
At this moment, Di Tian showed a rare hint of reluctance.
Remember to take good care of the auspicious Auspicious Beast!
Hearing this, Huo Yuhao smiled. Di Tian really had the heart of a doting father, which made Huo Yuhao a little envious.
"Senior Di Tian, please rest assured! We will absolutely not let Qiu'er get hurt. I will bring Qiu'er back to you safe and sound after the first year ends."
Di Qiu'er chimed in from the side:
"That's right, Di Tian, don't worry! Who could possibly hurt me?"
At the boundary between the Mixed Zone and the Core Zone, Huo Yuhao Di Qiu'er walked through a forest still covered in snow. The large-scale snowfall and freezing caused by Snow Empress's Xue Wu Shining Sun a few days ago had not yet completely disappeared.
Except for the forests in the Land of Great Evil, the Core Zone has been transformed into Frozen Forest by the Snow Empress.
"Wow! I can finally leave the Star Dou Great Forest!"
Di Qiu'er sat behind Huo Yuhao Huo Yuhao, one arm around his waist, the other waving in the air.
She no longer had to listen to Di Tian's lectures every day, nor was she kept in check by the Scarlet King and unable to do anything.
"I'm free!"
Thinking of this, Di Qiu'er couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Roar!"
Just as the group was heading towards the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest, a black leopard-like Soul Beast, three or four meters long, appeared before them.
"Yo ho! There's actually a Soul Beast that dares to block my path. You've got some nerve!"
Seeing the Soul Beast blocking their path, Di Qiu'er wasn't annoyed. She simply waved her hand, signaling Huo Yuhao and Xiao Yin to continue forward, ignoring the Soul Beast.
The black panther, who was blocking the way, was puzzled by everyone's behavior. It was the first time he had ever seen a human cub that was not afraid of him.
But since he couldn't figure it out, he stopped thinking about it. Why not take advantage of the free food that was offered to them? As for the Silver Hero Beast beneath them, he didn't care about it at all.
Aside from his Imprint Soul Skill being a bit troublesome, the Silver Hero Beast is otherwise just a fast big dog.
Just as Huo Yuhao and his group advanced to within a dozen meters of the black panther, the black panther's body arched, clearly ready to attack.
Upon seeing this, Di Qiu'er revealed a mischievous smile. In an instant, she began to exude the aura of an Emperor Auspicious Beast.
"Ha!"
Di Qiu'er's aura wasn't particularly strong, but in the black panther's eyes, it was even more terrifying than the overwhelming aura of Ferocious Beast from a few days ago.
"Leopard, I'm about to die!"
Sensing Di Qiu'er's presence, the black panther wore an expression of utter despair. He actually wanted to hunt down the most noble Emperor Auspicious Beast of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Although this was because the Emperor Auspicious Beast had inexplicably turned into a human, that reason alone was enough for him to be skinned alive and dismembered by the Ferocious Beast behind the Auspicious Beast.
Just as the black panther closed his eyes, preparing to face death, Di Qiu'er, riding the Silver Hero Beast, merely glanced at him sideways before passing him and heading towards the outer perimeter.
"I actually survived! Thank goodness the Beast God! This little princess actually changed her ways today and didn't cause me any trouble!"
Black Panther stared in disbelief at the departing group. Although it was strange that the auspicious Auspicious Beast had suddenly changed its nature, the feeling of surviving a disaster urged him to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.
Not only the black panther, but all the Soul Beast within a ten-kilometer radius of Di Qiu'er sensed her presence.
To avoid being harmed by her, these Soul Beast all moved away from the direction they were heading.
"Hahaha!"
Sitting behind Huo Yuhao, Qiu'er couldn't help but laugh out loud at the huge commotion caused by these Soul Beast.
"Sister Qiu'er, is this what you meant by the Soul Beast of the Star Dou Great Forest being so respectful and loving?"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Suddenly, Qiu'er seemed to remember something and whispered in Huo Yuhao's ear:
"Little brother Yuhao, why don't you release your Four-Not-Like Martial Soul and show it to them!"
Hearing Di Qiu'er's words, Huo Yuhao hesitated for a moment before saying:
"That's not a good idea! You can just scare them a little, it's not very ethical for me to join in!"
"Oh! What are you saying! I'm just showing you around! You and I are both Auspicious Beast. Release your aura so they can feel it. Next time you come alone, no Soul Beast will bother you."
Feeling that there was some truth to Di Qiu'er's words, Huo Yuhao also released his Four-Not-Like Martial Soul.
"Roar!"
As soon as the aura of the Four-Not-Like was released, the commotion around them intensified.
"Oh no! How come there's a second one of these little devils!"
"Heavens above, Dragon God, do you think we're having too much free time?"
"Caw! It's two Auspicious Beast! Back your teeth!"
Hearing the roars coming from all around, Huo Yuhao could understand the general meaning, even though he couldn't understand them.
"Sister Qiu'er, she's practically a demon in Star Dou!"
With a sigh, Huo Yuhao turned his head and saw that Di Qiu'er was staring intently at the Horns on his head with her golden pupils.
He realized something was wrong and was about to cover his horns with his hands. However, Di Qiu'er reacted quickly and touched them directly.
"No, Sister Qiu'er, no!"
