Such close contact and the warm breath made the girl panic immediately. She took a few steps back subconsciously and glanced at Tian Chen shyly and gratefully.🍓 ⋆ 🍦 🎀 🎀 🍦 ⋆ 🍓
"Thank you, you saved me."
The girl looked about sixteen or seventeen years old. Her fair skin and tall figure did not look like a local from Eastsea City, but rather she looked like a well-mannered and well-educated aristocratic lady.
The girl's appearance is also quite beautiful. The slightly tight-fitting clothes highlight the girl's exquisite figure, but her straight and pretty nose exudes a hint of arrogance.
Tian Chen nodded and didn't say much. He came to the rescue not because he was greedy for her body, but because he suddenly got interested. And finding a local to take him to Eastsea City's underground auction house also saved him some trouble.
At this time, the other eight middle-aged men on the deck also hurriedly protected the girl and greeted her with concern.
"Lin Xi, are you okay?"
The person who spoke was a dark-skinned middle-aged man among the three Soul Elder. The big man was not tall, but he was extremely strong. The muscles on his arms were bulging, his skin was dark, and his nose was flat. He had the appearance of a typical Eastsea City local. Judging from the attitude of others towards him, this man seemed to be the leader here.
Tian Chen discovered through Mental Power's investigation that this person's Soul Power is very close to Level 40, and he is also the person with the strongest cultivation here.✿.｡.:* ☆::..::.☆*.:｡.✿
As the middle-aged man spoke, he injected his Soul Power from the girl's back and inspected the girl's injuries with a frown.
Fortunately, the injuries inside the girl's body were not serious, so the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, but he still scolded the girl.
"Lin Xi, don't take such risks again in the future. If something happens to you, how will I explain it to your father when I go back? If I had known better, I should have waited for your father and the president to come back before taking you to get Third Soul Ring."
Being scolded by the big man, the girl blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment. She still respected this old subordinate who had followed her father for decades. And she was indeed impulsive before.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Liu, it's my fault."
Seeing the girl's submissive look, the big man shook his head helplessly and did not have the heart to continue scolding him. He signaled to the other seven people who were protecting the girl, and walked quickly to Tian Chen.
"Little brother, thank you for saving Lin Xi."
The big man's tone was very polite, not only because Tianchen saved the girl, but also because of Tianchen's own strength. They were all soul masters, so they naturally recognized the four soul rings at Tianchen's feet that were far beyond the proportion of ordinary soul masters. ♦👺 💚♖ Especially when he saw the deep fourth soul ring, his heart beat violently due to the fluctuation of emotions.
However, after working in Soul Master World for many years, he quickly calmed down the shock in his heart. At the same time, he also decided not to offend the young genius in front of him.
He is not the kind of stupid young man who doesn't know what's important. Such a genius can only be cultivated by the big Soul Master family and Spirit Hall.
No matter which one it is, it is obviously not something that Soul Elder, who has no background, can offend.
"Uncle, you're welcome. I wonder what kind of Soul Beast is this?" Tian Chen didn't put on any airs. He smiled at the big man and returned the salute, asking politely.
The big man was very pleased with Tian Chen's approachability. He looked around the sea with vigilance and saw that Soul Beast had dived into the bottom of the sea again, so he smiled heartily at Tian Chen.
"Little brother, you must not be a local of our Eastsea City, right?"
"That's true." Tian Chen's smile did not diminish, and he had nothing to hide.
The big man had already made a guess in his mind, but he was not too surprised. The dark blue Soul Power rose up from his body, and the three yellow Soul Ring were beating rapidly under his feet, signaling the other seven Soul Master to protect the girl. He looked at Tian Chen seriously and explained.
"Little brother, that Soul Beast is called Sea Wolf Eel. It is a powerful and ferocious Soul Beast. Originally, this kind of Soul Beast should live in the deep sea, but for some unknown reason, a group of Sea Wolf Eel took root in this inland sea decades ago. There are even a few in the group whose cultivation has exceeded ten thousand years."
Tian Chen looked at the seemingly calm sea with a thoughtful look on his face, frowning.
"Uncle, there don't seem to be many Soul Beast under the sea."
The depth of this inland sea is not very deep. Tian Chen and Mental Power can easily cover an area of sea around the sea ship, but no trace of this so-called Sea Wolf Eel group has been found.
The big man looked at Tian Chen in surprise and quickly continued to explain.
"Little brother, you are right. These Sea Wolf Eel are indeed not here now. According to our long-term observation, this group of Sea Wolf Eel will leave the inland sea to hunt in the deep sea every three days. We also took this opportunity to take Lin Xi to hunt this thousand-year-old wolf eel."
"But there's still about half an hour left, and those Sea Wolf Eel should be back. It seems like we won't be able to kill that beast today." As he said this, the big man's tone was slightly bitter.
He still underestimated the power of the thousand-year-old Sea Wolf Eel. Although the cultivation level of this Sea Wolf Eel was only about 1,500 years, the ratio of his Martial Soul and Soul Ring was not excellent. In the past, he might have been able to kill it with the advantage of numbers, but after Lin Xi's incident, a lot of time was wasted.
And with the cunning of this Sea Wolf Eel, it would probably not show up in a short time. He was not confident that he could capture this thousand-year-old Sea Wolf Eel alive within half an hour and make Third Soul Ring for Lin Xi.
Of course, it would be a different matter if Tian Chen came to help. However, he wisely did not say anything. Tian Chen had already helped him save Lin Xi, which made him very grateful. He was embarrassed to ask Tian Chen for help, even if he was not a relative.
While Tian Chen was talking to the big man, the originally calm lake surface suddenly boiled. Then the thousand-year-old Sea Wolf Eel emerged from the sea surface again.
A pair of dim gray eyes stared directly at the people on the deck.
"No, those Sea Wolf Eels are probably coming back. Hurry up and get out of here." The big man was stunned for a moment, then suddenly exclaimed.
However, this Sea Wolf Eel would not go as everyone wanted. Its slender and powerful body twisted in the sea water, and a huge wave suddenly arose on the sea surface, causing the ship to shake violently.
If it weren't for the large size of this sea-going ship, it might have been capsized by the waves.
"Uncle Liu, what should we do now?" Lin Xi, who was sitting on the deck recovering Soul Power, also came to the big man and asked anxiously.
However, her eyes always stayed on Tian Chen. She didn't know why, but she had a blind confidence in Tian Chen, who saved her life.
This Soul Beast prototype is a wolf eel, and it tastes a bit fragrant.
