"Hmm?"

Early the next morning, Xiao Yexuan had originally planned to take Tang San to a nearby town to see a doctor.

However, Xiao Yexuan soon sensed two powerful auras approaching.

As for Tang San, that girl had been far too itchy-handed last night and could not get up at all now.

Xiao Yexuan simply did not know about that.

Xiao Yexuan did not care about Tang San for the moment. Could she possibly escape from his Ice and Fire Duality Eye?

Xiao Yexuan was instead looking forward to it. Those two powerful auras carried a dense beastly nature.

He had known that releasing Poison Douluo would draw people here to rescue Tang San.

He had not expected Xiao Wu to be the first to arrive.

Xiao Yexuan did not even need to think about those two beastly powers to know that Xiao Wu had brought along her beloved Da Ming and Er Ming.

Together, that meant three Hundred-Thousand Year Soul Rings and three Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones.

Just thinking about it made Xiao Yexuan excited.

If he caught all three of them, not only could he imprison them within his Ten Thousand Soul Banner as puppets, but they could also bring him many benefits.

Moreover, Xiao Wu was Tang San's most beloved sister. If he tortured Xiao Wu and let Tang San find out, Tang San would suffer a devastating blow, and Xiao Yexuan could obtain even more treasures from her.

Thinking of those two Darkgold Dreadclaw Bear Left and Right Palm Bones, along with a pair of Death Spider Emperor arm bones...

They were practically divine-grade soul bones.

System rewards really were the best. Thinking of it this way, the soul bones of the Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python did not seem all that important anymore.

Then, Xiao Yexuan's lips curled upward as Xiao Wu and the others approached.

Naturally, Xiao Yexuan's own strength was incapable of contending against three Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.

He could only lure the three soul beasts into his territory and use the power within the Ice and Fire Duality Eye to defeat them.

Hopefully, those three would come over willingly and let him capture them.

After thinking it over, Xiao Yexuan decided to play it safe and wrapped Tang San in vines.

He then hung her in the middle of the Ice and Fire Duality Eye.

Although Tang San's body could not be seen inside that ball of vines, Xiao Wu was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast and could sense Tang San's aura.

When the time came, that Hundred-Thousand-Year-old love-struck fool would come here without regard for anything else to rescue Tang San.

Da Ming and Er Ming, who wanted to protect Xiao Wu, would also charge into Xiao Yexuan's trap like madmen.

Still, Xiao Yexuan was not certain whether the power within the Ice and Fire Duality Eye, though immense, could successfully capture both powerful Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts at once.

Xiao Yexuan did not dare take the risk. If they broke through directly, it would be extremely difficult for him to capture them afterward.

He had to handle this carefully.

At this moment, Xiao Wu had arrived at the edge of Sunset Forest with Da Ming and Er Ming.

The Sky Azure Bull Python and the others had come aggressively, knowing their whereabouts would be discovered sooner or later.

Then, the Sky Azure Bull Python gave the Titan Giant Ape a look.

The Titan Giant Ape knew what to do.

It let out a roar that spread through nearly the entire Sunset Forest.

This overwhelming aura pressed the soul beasts within Sunset Forest so hard that they could not even lift their bodies. Terrified, they knew they had encountered an invincible powerhouse.

Very quickly, the Titan Giant Ape sent out the summons for all the soul beasts in Sunset Forest.

Although it wanted to rescue Tang San as soon as possible, the Sky Azure Bull Python had lived for a hundred thousand years. Before this, because of its mistake, Spirit Hall had taken advantage of the opportunity to kill Xiao Wu's mother and San Ming.

Along the way, Xiao Wu had also told the Sky Azure Bull Python about Poison Douluo.

Though the two of them looked down on Poison Douluo, that weak Titled Douluo, they still remained wary of Xiao Yexuan, who had easily defeated him.

So, they did not attack Xiao Yexuan immediately. Instead, they first gathered the powerful soul beasts here, then attacked Xiao Yexuan together.

Even if those soul beasts were not particularly useful, they could still reveal Xiao Yexuan's location and block Xiao Yexuan if he tried to escape.

Xiao Wu's face was full of worry. She hoped she had arrived in time and that nothing had happened to her Third Brother yet.

Powerful soul beasts answered a summons very quickly.

Yet after waiting only a moment, the Titan Giant Ape noticed something was wrong.

Many soul beasts had indeed come... but they were all thousand-year-level soul beasts. Not a single Ten-Thousand Year Soul Beast had come.

Soul beasts could communicate with one another. The Titan Giant Ape questioned many soul beasts and finally learned something.

Nearly all the powerful soul beasts in the vicinity had vanished.

"It seems that person killed all the powerful soul beasts here. What a vicious heart!" the Sky Azure Bull Python said, its eyes somewhat red.

The soul beast race had its own pride. So many of their kind had been slaughtered by a human, and they had all been Ten-Thousand Year Soul Beasts. The Ten-Thousand Year Soul Beasts of Sunset Forest had likely all been wiped out.

What tremendous harm and humiliation this was to the soul beast race.

The Sky Azure Bull Python swore that it would kill Xiao Yexuan!

At the same time, it realized how dangerous Xiao Yexuan was. He could not have merely absorbed the soul rings of so many soul beasts. He must have used some evil method to turn those soul beasts into his own power.

The combined strength of every Ten-Thousand Year Soul Beast in Sunset Forest truly would be troublesome for them.

"Da Ming, Er Ming! No matter how powerful the enemy is, I have to rescue Third Brother! She's the person who treated me best in the human world!" Xiao Wu said.

"For a human, do you really have to do this? Sister Xiao Wu, don't forget that your mother and San Ming were both killed by humans. How many of our soul beast race have died at human hands?" Da Ming sighed.

"Da Ming! Third Brother is different! She treats me as well as Mother did. I don't want to see her fall into the hands of bad people." Xiao Wu grew anxious. Without Da Ming and Er Ming's help, how could she possibly rescue Tang San?

"Tang San? How is she worthy of trust? Didn't she also kill our kind and obtain soul rings from them?"

"During all your years among humans, haven't you personally seen how those humans cruelly slaughter soul beasts?"

The Sky Azure Bull Python said this only because it wanted Xiao Wu to stay away from those dangerous humans.

If Xiao Wu's identity as a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast were exposed, she would be in grave danger.

No one would want to give up a Hundred-Thousand Year Soul Ring and a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone.

Xiao Wu was practically a walking treasure trove. Whoever obtained her would gain an enormous opportunity.

No one could see such a treasure and remain unmoved.

Would Tang San truly remain unmoved? From a soul beast's perspective, humans were all greedy and would absolutely kill Xiao Wu with their own hands.

"No, no, no! Third Brother promised me that she would only kill bad soul beasts. She wouldn't kill good soul beasts. Da Ming, believe me, Third Brother is a good person!"

Xiao Wu did not keep begging Da Ming and Er Ming. Her face resolute, she turned and walked toward the depths of Sunset Forest, saying:

"Since you won't help me, I'll go myself!"
