So Chu Ye planned to wait until he went out to obtain his second soul ring before absorbing the soul bone.

Seeing Chu Ye so happy, Qian Renxue tilted her head and asked, "Chu Ye, it's just breaking through to level twenty. Is there any need to be this happy?"

"Of course. Because I can absorb my second soul ring now."

"Fine~"

Chu Ye stood up, his face filled with anticipation. "I'm going to find Teacher and ask her to take me to the Star Dou Great Forest to obtain a soul ring. Xue'er, you'll have to cultivate by yourself for the next few days."

"Mm-hmm, hurry up and go. I'll wait for you to come back."

"I'm off."

Chu Ye quickly left to find Bibi Dong and tell her about his Soul Power breaking through to level twenty.

As the Pope of Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong actually had all kinds of official duties to handle. She happened to be very busy these past few days, so she instructed Chrysanthemum Douluo to take Chu Ye to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Chu Ye did not really mind. Whoever took him was the same. With Chrysanthemum Douluo's strength as a Title Douluo, he could completely satisfy every requirement Chu Ye had during the process.

"Elder Gu Yue, I'll have to trouble you this time," Chu Ye said politely.

"Eh-hehehe~ It's no trouble, no trouble. Leave it to me. I'll help you find the soul ring most suited to you." Chrysanthemum Douluo seemed quite willing.

He covered his mouth and laughed excitedly. Together with that androgynous voice and appearance of his, Chu Ye always felt his laugh was eerie and perverted.

"Eh-hehe, then thank you very much, Elder Gu Yue." Chu Ye laughed awkwardly and subconsciously put a little more distance between himself and Chrysanthemum Douluo.

The two immediately set off for the Star Dou Great Forest.

Along the way, Chrysanthemum Douluo took excellent care of Chu Ye, and his attitude was extraordinarily amiable. This left Chu Ye completely baffled. He clearly had not had much contact with Chrysanthemum Douluo before!

If he were not still so young, Chu Ye would really have suspected that this guy had some kind of interest in him and wanted sparks to fly between them.

"Xiao Ye, we'll reach the Star Dou Great Forest soon. As for the second soul ring you want to absorb, do you have any requirements regarding its age?" Chrysanthemum Douluo asked.

He knew that the conditions for Chu Ye absorbing soul rings could no longer be judged by common sense. He had to ask.

"When the time comes, Elder Gu Yue, catch me a four-thousand-year one first and let me try," Chu Ye said for the time being, giving a number first. After seeing the situation, he would decide whether he wanted one with an even higher age.

"A four-thousand-year second ring?! Tsk, tsk, tsk. But your first ring was already two thousand years, brat, so it should be fine. All right, I'll catch one for you to try later."

"Mm."

Chu Ye nodded.

A short while later, the two finally arrived at the outer region of the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Soul beasts over four thousand years old are relatively rare in the outermost region. Let's head deeper as quickly as possible. There are plenty in the area between the outer region and the inner region, but it will take some distance. Xiao Ye, stay close to me." Chrysanthemum Douluo led Chu Ye deeper inside.

Having Chrysanthemum Douluo clearing the way beside him was extremely reassuring. Almost no soul beasts dared approach, and anything that did not fear death was instantly knocked down by Chrysanthemum Douluo.

With the path this unobstructed, the two quickly went deeper inside.

Before he knew it, they had already walked for several hours. Chu Ye was a little tired and wanted to say they should stop and rest for a while. But just then, Chrysanthemum Douluo took the initiative to stop, and his expression suddenly tightened.

Chu Ye noticed that Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression was off and asked, "What's wrong, Elder Gu Yue?"

"There's someone ahead of us. Their aura isn't weak. I'm afraid it's a Title Douluo-level expert."

"Someone? And a Title Douluo!"

Chu Ye hurriedly looked ahead. After seeing no one, he decisively gave up. Clearly, Chrysanthemum Douluo was not using his eyes.

As Spirit Masters rose in level, their Spirit Power would also increase. For experts at the level of Title Douluo, they could use Spirit Power to probe distances the naked eye could not see.

So Chrysanthemum Douluo was sensing with his Spirit Power.

"Don't speak yet. Let me see who it is." Chrysanthemum Douluo's gaze gradually focused, and in an instant, he expanded the sensing range of his Spirit Power.

Soon, Chrysanthemum Douluo laughed coquettishly. "Mm-hehehe~ So it's him~!"

"Who is it, Elder Gu Yue?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo replied, "Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo. Have you heard of him?"

"So it's Poison Douluo. I've heard a little. I heard he is unmatched in the world when it comes to poison, and that he is a Title Douluo very skilled at group attacks."

Of course Chu Ye knew Poison Douluo. The place where that Old Poison cultivated his poison arts, Sunset Forest, had a spring of extreme cold and extreme heat in the world, called the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. That place gathered the greatest amount of Immortal Herb resources on the entire continent!

Chu Ye had been thinking about those Immortal Herbs for a very long time. He would not leave them for Tang San and that group from Shrek.

Before Tang San got there, Chu Ye would sooner or later find an opportunity to make a trip first and seize the Immortal Herbs in advance!

"Not bad! That's him. Let's go, Xiao Ye!"

Looking at Chrysanthemum Douluo's momentum, it seemed like he wanted to stir up trouble. Chu Ye followed him while asking, "Elder Gu Yue, you wouldn't be planning to pick a fight with Poison Douluo, would you?"

"Hmph~ If I met him outside and took the initiative to avoid him, wouldn't that mean I was afraid of him?" Chrysanthemum Douluo's attitude was very proud, and then he confidently added, "Don't worry, he can't beat me! The one running later will only be him."

"How domineering! Elder Gu Yue, then I'll have to properly witness your heroic bearing." Chu Ye flattered him.

He actually quite wanted to see a battle between Title Douluo-level experts like this. He would also be more than happy if Poison Douluo was beaten to death by Chrysanthemum Douluo. It would be much more convenient to take the Immortal Herbs in the future.

At the same time, there was another point. Poison Douluo would pose quite a large threat to Spirit Hall's unification of the continent in the future.

Although this poisonous creature was the weakest of all Title Douluo, unable to beat anyone, what could not be denied was that he could beat the enemy until only Title Douluo were left. In terms of group attacks, he was indeed very strong!

His methods were also extremely cruel. During the empire war in the later stages of Douluo, Poison Douluo relied on his extremely powerful group poison attacks to directly poison hundreds of thousands of people to death in Jialing Pass City!

Hundreds of thousands of people, hundreds of thousands of lives.

Among them were Spirit Hall's Spirit Masters, Spirit Hall's soldiers, and most importantly, the innocent commoners inside Jialing Pass!

And toward this, Tang San, that hypocritical dog who had always defined himself as being on the side of justice, remained unmoved. He did not care about whether they lived or died at all. He even responded under Qian Renxue's questioning, showing what it meant to be heartless, ruthless, vicious, and cruel.

Just because Spirit Hall stood opposed to Tang San, they were labeled as bad people, while Tang San and the others casually killing people was all correct.

Compared to that, what did Spirit Hall merely eliminating tens of thousands of Spirit Masters from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan amount to?

Was that this cruel?

So someone like Poison Douluo was better off dead as soon as possible.

"Hehehehe~ Xiao Ye, then watch carefully." Hearing Chu Ye's flattery, Chrysanthemum Douluo felt very pleased inside. He planned to properly show off in front of this junior he was extremely fond of.
