"But you can't kill me, and I won't just stand there and let you kill me. At the very least, you have to spare my life before I can help Qiu'er."
Toji looked up and stared directly at the Di Tian.
"I won't say anything, but I will absolutely take responsibility for Qiu'er."
The frigid winds of the Far North seemed to freeze at that moment.
It wasn't just Ice Empress and the others who were nervous.
Even Du Busi, who witnessed this scene, was very nervous.
His brain was working at a fever pitch.
He was pondering how to ensure his disciple's safe escape from Di Tian's clutches.
Di Tian's dragon claw hovered three inches above Toji's head, his dragon pupils contracting violently. He slowly turned his head to look at Di Qiu'er, his voice trembling with disbelief:
"So, you... chose him, a human?"
Can you tell me why?
"What is it about this human that makes you choose him as your partner?"
Di Tian's voice sounded as if he had aged millions of years in an instant.
" Di Tian, I can't explain it to you in words right now..." Di Qiu'er sighed, suddenly feeling a sense of tension.
It felt like I was taking my boyfriend to meet my father, afraid he wouldn't approve.
Of course, in today's terms... he seems quite dangerous.
Because Di Tian could kill him.
Di Qiu'er's voice softened considerably:
"Wait for me to come back, and I'll explain it to you personally. Can you wait until then?"
"..."
Di Tian lowered his head and looked directly into Di Qiu'er's beautiful eyes.
"..."
Another silence fell.
The silent atmosphere put everyone and everything present, both human and beast, on edge.
If Di Tian were to become enraged, no one present would be able to stop him...
"..."
Finally, after a long silence, Di Tian sighed with a hint of sadness.
"You... you've grown up... sigh."
When will you come back to the Star Dou Great Forest?
"I don't know." Di Qiu'er shook her head, then suddenly reached out and put her arm around Toji's shoulder. "I need to go with him to do something, and then we'll go back to the Star Dou Great Forest."
"So, I don't know when I'll be able to go back."
"Is this all you have to do?" Di Tian frowned slightly. "Just to help him?"
"No, Di Tian, this is a matter of Life and death. I don't want to sit idly by and wait for my fate. At this stage, staying in the Star Dou Great Forest is just waiting to die. Without him, I... I can't change the situation, nor can I defy fate."
Di Qiu'er explained.
"With me protecting you, who can hurt you?" Di Tian suddenly flew into a rage, his emotions running high. "As long as you come back to Star Dou with me... wait."
Di Tian realized something.
He reached out and slowly pointed to the sky.
Is it because of this reason?
Di Qiu'er bit her red lips lightly and nodded firmly.
Di Tian slowly retracted his dragon claw, and the dark dragon clouds churned into a vortex in the sky.
He looked up at the sky, his voice becoming unusually calm:
"So that's how it is... No wonder the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python were able to stay in the human world."
His illusory image suddenly solidified, and the dragon's might receded like a tide.
How much did you see?
"All of them," Di Qiu'er said.
Di Tian remained silent for a moment, then his illusory figure slowly dissipated.
"I'll wait for you... Go back to the Star Dou Great Forest and explain everything to me."
"Remember, if you encounter danger, remember to call me..."
" Xiong Jun and the Myriad Demon King will assist you."
Di Tian returned.
The crisis at the scene is over.
Everyone and everything present, both human and beast, breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then... we're not going back?" Xiong Jun asked, looking at the Myriad Demon King.
The Myriad Demon King's lips twitched:
"Yes, we must stay and follow the Emperor Auspicious Beast to assist her."
"Hehe, welcome to the team." The Scarlet King breathed a sigh of relief. With his strength, facing the top experts from the human side was like finding a piece of cake.
With the Myriad Demon King and Xiong Jun by his side, his pressure will be much less.
"And what about these humans..."
The Myriad Demon King and the Xiong Jun once again focused their attention on the Body Sect's team.
The Body Sect remained on high alert.
"You must not lay a hand on them," Di Qiu'er ordered directly.
"They are our helpers too!"
"Oh," Xiong Jun replied honestly, but there was still a hint of displeasure in his voice.
However, because the other party was Emperor Auspicious Beast, they held back.
He may disobey Di Tian's orders, but the Emperor Auspicious Beast...
Going against her will bring no benefit whatsoever, but rather countless disadvantages.
"Could you please clean up the scene? I'll talk to the teacher," Toji said to Di Qiu'er, then walked towards Du Busi.
"Teacher..."
"You brat." Du Busi raised his hand and punched him. "Looks like your physique is working really well. Even the Emperor Auspicious Beast has taken a liking to you."
"I knew it, you're quite the lucky one with the ladies."
"Yes," Toji nodded, "It's really good..."
Du Busi suddenly lowered his voice, a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes. "But you'd better think carefully, kid, getting so deeply involved with Soul Beast..."
He glanced at Di Qiu'er in the distance.
"Especially creatures like the Emperor Auspicious Beast."
"Teacher, it's okay, I can manage," Toji said.
A complex emotion flashed in Du Busi's eyes, but it was quickly masked by a smile, "Stop talking nonsense, what are you planning to do next?"
Toji said, "Teacher, I still have to go to the Sun Moon Empire; I haven't finished my business yet."
" The Sun Moon Empire?" Du Busi frowned slightly. "Why do we still have to go?"
"Teacher, I only came to the Far North to obtain Soul Ring after reaching level 60, but I never expected... to discover something like this."
As he spoke, Toji recounted everything.
The stories that Toji told left Du Busi Du Busi astonished.
"What... what did you say?"
"All its Soul Ring are already 100,000 years old, and it directly leveled up nineteen times, awakened twice in a row, and even became Yin-Yang Complementary Dual Soul Cores???"
"Uh... yes." Toji scratched his head.
No wonder, no wonder.
Du Busi sighed and patted Toji on the shoulder.
"Now that you've fully matured and I see you're capable of handling things on your own, I'm completely at ease."
"You have now surpassed me in some field."
"My era has come to an end; now it's your era, young people's era."
"Teacher..."
"I will not interfere with anything you do. Whatever you do, remember that behind you is the entire Body Sect."
"Du Busi Dies," he said in a deep voice.
"Well then, we'll be going now. Remember, if you encounter anything you can't handle, call us."
"Our Body Sect will come to your aid no matter where you are."
Behind Du Busi, a group of powerful figures spoke in unison:
"The sect leader is right, young sect leader, we are willing to go through fire and water for you!"
