Lord of Soul Beasts? Before this, Zhu Zhuqing might not have been so surprised, since she had not known the Star Dou Great Forest's true hidden strength. But now, she knew the power of the Star Dou Great Forest. Every one of those soul beasts that had taken human form possessed strength above that of a Level 95 Titled Douluo.

Gu Yue Na lowered her head slightly. Though she did not kneel, it was enough to demonstrate her sincerity.

Yang Tian stroked his chin and pondered for a moment before finally speaking. "Forget about being the Lord of Soul Beasts. If I gain enough strength, I will change this world's cultivation laws. But I will not help soul beasts deal with humans. I hope you can understand."

Gu Yue Na's delicate brows furrowed slightly. She had hoped Yang Tian would completely side with the soul beasts, but upon reflection, she realized that was impossible.

He would not even accept the position of Lord of Soul Beasts... Gu Yue Na's purple eyes flickered slightly before she asked, "How do you intend to help the soul beast race?"

That question was essentially a test of Yang Tian's sincerity. Yet was it not easy for Yang Tian to help soul beasts escape their current predicament? Of course, he would have to wait until he became stronger.

But even now, Yang Tian could produce something that would put Gu Yue Na at ease. "My strength is still too weak. No matter how much I say, if I cannot do it, it is all meaningless.

"However, I may be able to heal your injuries!"

Yang Tian took out a shriveled green bean and held it before Gu Yue Na. "Eat this, and the injuries within your body will heal completely. Your strength will also return to its peak state. Consider it the price for this soul bone and soul ring."

Gu Yue Na stared blankly at the shriveled bean in Yang Tian's palm. She could not believe that a single bean could heal her injuries.

However, she likewise did not believe Yang Tian would dare harm her. So she reached out with her jade-like hand, pinched up the Mystical Bean, put it in her mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.

The moment the Mystical Bean entered her stomach, Gu Yue Na's beautiful eyes flew open. Nine-colored radiance blossomed from her pupils, and the aura around her abruptly surged.

Yang Tian gave a bitter smile at the sight, then summoned the Heavenly Flames and formed a glass-like barrier to protect Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing beneath it.

Gu Yue Na's rampaging aura calmed after only an instant. Her pretty face was now rosy and lustrous, adding an entirely different charm to her beauty.

A trace of relief flashed through her brows. With her injuries healed, she had briefly failed to control her aura and nearly broken through to the level of a god. Fortunately, she had restrained herself in time and avoided a grave mistake.

The glass-like fire barrier dissipated, and Gu Yue Na looked at Yang Tian with gratitude and curiosity filling her eyes.

"Thank you. From this day onward, you are the soul beast race's most honored friend, with status equal to mine. As for the future, I still hope you can help the soul beast race escape its predicament. Gu Yue Na will be eternally grateful." Gu Yue Na bowed deeply to Yang Tian. Her collar hung low, revealing a patch of snowy skin and the edge of a deep valley.

Yang Tian's gaze inadvertently flicked over it, but he forcibly looked away before saying, "I will keep my word regarding the soul beast race. It is only that my current strength is too weak, so please wait patiently.

"If there is nothing else, please send us out. Our companions are still in the Star Dou Great Forest. They must be worried by now."

Xiao Wu was also somewhat anxious. When Er Ming took her away, she had clearly seen Tang San's madness.

Gu Yue Na nodded at those words, then took out an oval scale. It appeared as thin as paper, yet it felt icy cold to the touch and was exceptionally hard. Yang Tian felt that even if he wielded the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Sword with all his strength, he would be fortunate to leave a shallow mark on this scale.

When Gu Yue Na saw Yang Tian stroking her Reverse Scale, her face reddened slightly. Only dragons knew what it meant to give someone a Reverse Scale. "This is my Reverse Scale. It can sense whether you are safe. If you encounter danger, I will come help you as quickly as possible."

Yang Tian did not refuse. He tucked Gu Yue Na's Reverse Scale close to his body. This thing could save his life at a critical moment.

When Gu Yue Na saw Yang Tian storing the Reverse Scale against his body, her expression became somewhat unnatural. "I still do not know your name. Since you do not wish to become the Lord of Soul Beasts, how should we address you in the future?"

"My name is Yang Tian. Just call me by my name."

Yang Tian had not expected his gains from this outing to be so great.

I hope this Legendary Grade theft gives me an ultimate cultivation method. Yang Tian prayed inwardly, but he did not use the Theft Tickets yet.

Gu Yue Na personally tore open space and sent Yang Tian's group of three away.

Within the boundless spatial passage, Yang Tian said to Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu, "Do not tell anyone about what happened today. If they ask how we escaped, say that the Titan Giant Ape and that Black Dragon Soul Beast had a conflict and overlooked us.

"As for the soul ring, we picked it up.

"Understand?"

Zhu Zhuqing nodded without hesitation. Xiao Wu was a soul beast, but this had nothing to do with her, and she was happy to go along with it.

Still, Xiao Wu pouted and said, "Heavenly Brother's excuses are always so perfunctory. You have picked up quite a lot of things already, have you not?"

Yang Tian did not explain. He merely said, "Good luck."

"Could you be any more perfunctory?" Xiao Wu rolled her eyes. As the Silver Dragon King watched Xiao Wu bicker with Yang Tian, something stirred thoughtfully in her beautiful eyes.

The speed of traveling through space was naturally swift. Gu Yue Na placed Yang Tian's group not far from Tang San and the others, then said softly, "The Star Dou Great Forest still has many soul bones buried within it, as well as soul rings. If you need anything, you can come find me, or... use your spiritual power to communicate with the Reverse Scale. I will be able to sense it as well."

Yang Tian was tempted. Anything Gu Yue Na offered had to start at the Hundred Thousand Year level.

"We can talk about it later." Yang Tian refused despite his true thoughts, and Gu Yue Na said nothing more before taking her leave.

Watching Gu Yue Na's departing figure, Yang Tian felt somewhat dazed. Recalling the events of the night, he found them astonishing, but not particularly confusing. After all, he already had a system and had transmigrated. What was there to find unacceptable about such a minor scene?

Zhu Zhuqing felt the same way. She still felt as though she were dreaming, but the Level 37 Soul Power within her body and the powerful External Soul Bone on her back constantly reminded her that this was not a dream!

Yang Tian squeezed Zhu Zhuqing's hand and called softly, "Come back to yourself. Remember what I told you. Do not give anything away."

Zhu Zhuqing looked at Yang Tian, then nodded.

The three headed toward Zhao Wuji and the others. Before long, they saw Zhao Wuji's group gathered together.

At the center of their protective encirclement, Tang San stood bare-chested. Eight dark-purple spider lances protruded from his back, incomparably savage as they emitted a cold, eerie gleam.
