Douluo: Martial Soul White Tiger, I am the White Emperor of Heaven

Chapter 540 Goodbye Xiao Wu, Da Ming, Er Ming
Zhu Zhuqing's face turned even redder. She struggled symbolically for a moment, then obediently leaned against him, whispering reproachfully:

"W-what little wife... she's just a fiancée..."

"Yes, yes, yes, my fiancée, my future wife."

Dai Chengfeng readily agreed, wrapping his arms around her slender and supple waist and gently pulling her into his embrace.

Zhu Zhuqing stiffened slightly, but feeling the warmth and reassuring aura emanating from Dai Chengfeng, she quickly relaxed and gently rested her head on his shoulder.

The tent was quiet, with only the sound of their steady breathing and each other's heartbeats.

Holding the soft, fragrant woman in his arms, Dai Chengfeng felt much of his weariness dissipate. For once, he refrained from making any physical advances and instead closed his eyes, enjoying this rare moment of tranquility.

however……

In the dead of night, just as Dai Chengfeng was half asleep, a strange thing happened!

Deep within his Qi Sea, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, representing his second martial soul, suddenly trembled slightly, emitting a strange fluctuation mixed with excitement and agitation.

"Ok?"

Dai Chengfeng woke up from his sleep with some confusion and asked Qiu'er, who had appeared in the tent, with curiosity.

"Qiu'er, what's wrong?"

"Dai Chengfeng! Dai Chengfeng! It's Sister Xiaowu! I can feel Sister Xiaowu's presence!"

"Xiao Wu? What's she doing here? Isn't this the central region of the Star Dou Great Forest?"

Because Dai Chengfeng had used up a lot of mental energy and his perception range had been greatly reduced due to the use of the Divine Extreme Kill, he did not notice anything unusual at all.

Qiu'er's voice was full of certainty: "That's right! It's Sister Xiaowu's aura, very close!"

"And...and the aura of those two big idiots, Da Ming and Er Ming, is also there!"

Xiao Wu? Da Ming? Er Ming?

For a moment, Dai Chengfeng narrowed his eyes slightly.

Previously, Dai Chengfeng was somewhat dismissive of Xiao Wu's 100,000-year soul ring, since it was not a perfect match for his White Tiger Martial Soul.

But now, he has Qiu'er as his second martial soul!

Qiu'er is an imperial auspicious beast, and she is intimately connected with the soul beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest. If she could obtain the sacrifices of the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python... that would be a match made in heaven!

Moreover, as a 100,000-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit, if Qiu'er were to absorb Xiao Wu's soul ring and soul bone, the compatibility would definitely be quite high.

If Tang San can have it, why can't I, Dai Chengfeng?
Thinking it over, Dai Chengfeng glanced at Zhu Zhuqing, who was still fast asleep in his arms, carefully moved his body away, gently laid her flat on the mat, and covered her with a thin blanket.

Zhu Zhuqing unconsciously smacked her lips in her sleep, but did not wake up.

Dai Chengfeng stood up silently. "Qiu'er, take me to them."

“Okay!” Qiu’er replied excitedly.

…………

…………

Dai Chengfeng concealed his aura and slipped out of the tent silently. Following the direction Qiu'er pointed out in his mind, he sneaked into the deep forest next to the camp.

The moonlight was fragmented by the dense canopy of trees, making the forest dim.

After walking for about the time it takes to burn an incense stick, we passed through a dense thicket of bushes, and suddenly a small clearing appeared before us.

A young girl stood quietly in the open space.

She was dressed in simple clothes, with a slender figure, long hair that reached her hips, and a pretty face. It was Xiao Wu!
Behind her stood two enormous figures.

The one on the left, with a body as strong as a mountain, covered in jet-black muscles like rocks, and with incredibly long arms, is none other than the King of the Forest, Titan Giant Ape Erming!
The one on the right, half bull and half python, covered in blue scales, with a single horn on its head, exudes a terrifying aura as deep as an abyss and as deep as a prison. It is none other than the Azure Bull Python Da Ming!

The three of them seemed to have been waiting here all along.

As Dai Chengfeng arrived, all their eyes fell on him as he emerged from the shadows of the woods.

Instantly, Xiao Wu's eyes lit up with joy. She almost skipped forward, her voice filled with the happiness of a long-awaited reunion:

"Dai Chengfeng! Long time no see!"

Looking at the still lively and spirited girl before him, he smiled slightly and replied in a gentle tone:

"Yes, Xiao Wu, it's been a long time."

At this moment, Xiao Wu had already turned her gaze to Dai Chengfeng, or more accurately, to Qiu'er on his shoulder.

Her smile grew even brighter, tinged with affection: "Qiu'er! You're here too!"

I knew you seemed a bit off; turns out you've been following Dai Chengfeng all along…

However, she stopped abruptly before she could finish speaking.

She blinked her big eyes, carefully "sensing" Qiu'er's presence, her delicate eyebrows furrowing slightly.

Not only her, but also the two men standing behind her, Da Ming and Er Ming, who were like two guardian mountains, also had a hint of undisguised surprise flash across their huge beast eyes.

Something is wrong!
Something is very wrong!
Qiu'er was clearly standing right in front of them. They would never mistake her for the unique aura of an imperial auspicious beast or the primal fluctuations of the power of destiny originating from the Star Dou Great Forest.

but……

In their perception, Qiu'er before them was more like a "soul entity" that embodied all origins and consciousness, just like...

For soul beasts, this state usually only means one thing—

Even after death, the soul has not completely dissipated.

However, Qiu'er's soul was not only incredibly solid, but it also possessed lively emotional fluctuations, which completely defied common sense.

The boundary between life and death became blurred in Qiu'er, presenting a bizarre state that they had never seen and could not understand.

"Qiu'er... what... what happened to you?"

Xiao Wu's smile vanished, replaced by deep confusion and a hint of unease.

Why do I feel... I feel like you're... just a soul left?

"Where's your body?"

Titan Ape Erming also let out a low roar, his voice deep and thunderous, filled with suppressed anger and confusion.

The enormous bull's head of the Azure Bull Python Daming also lowered slightly, its deep eyes fixed on Dai Chengfeng.

"Dai Chengfeng, what did you do to the auspicious beast?"

Despite sensing the almost tangible hostility and oppression from the two Ming dynasties, Dai Chengfeng remained unmoved.

Qiu'er, however, smiled and explained, "Sister Xiaowu! Daming! Erming! Don't worry, don't misunderstand Dai Chengfeng! I did it voluntarily!"

"Volunteer?"

Xiao Wu, Da Ming, and Er Ming were all stunned at the same time.

"Yes, voluntarily!"

Qiu'er's illusory soul nodded vigorously, "Things aren't what you think."

"I discussed it with Dai Chengfeng and decided to offer him as a sacrifice!"

"Sacrifice?!"

Upon hearing those two words, Xiao Wu's face paled, and the auras of Da Ming and Er Ming suddenly became dangerous.

Sacrifice is of extraordinary significance to a 100,000-year-old soul beast. It usually means that the soul beast burns its life and dedicates everything to the soul master, while its own soul is mostly annihilated and rarely survives.

"Let me finish!"
